Altars - Ascetic Reflection [Full Album 2022]

Lyrics to Ascetic Reflection [Full Album 2022] by Altars

Tracklist: 01. Slouching Towards Gomorrah Dejected lone haruspex Forseen inevitable end 02. Perverse Entity Temporal womb rejects Permutated being Ripped from cosmic bowel Bound in rags Corrupted excrement Scales ulcerated vessel Withered and ossified, swathed in pall Profuse with ripening sores Foetid icon enshrined in ash Ascetic self-affliction Pulping mass Heaps a mound of broken clay With which to scrape itself Perpetual anathema Sulphurous anatomy Derelict sapience Perverse lust for obeisance Eagerly consumes pestilent spoor 03. Luminous Jar Murmuring pithos At austere nexus Itself having swallowed All miseries of flesh So have I beheld it Solemn and profane Radiant with gravity Forments desire Insatiable To perceive To penetrate To pierce me Subsume (unto me) Obscure luminescence Pours from sacrosanct orifice Arcane malevolence Bilious maledictions Flow vessel to vessel Until all are filled The way of souls is lit 04. Black Light Upon Us Time is Time is Time is From conception to being Time is Time is Time is From energy To energy To energy To conception To being To vision To light To fire To black To being To conception To energy From energy To black To black I bring the light And the air and the fire and The word and the sound That is black 05. Ascetic Reflection I deny carnal weakness Impurity, putridity Pull of basal impulse Abhorrent hedonism I flay my skin My flesh, mortification Dispose of frail rot Transcending thresholds To commune with inner worlds Buried beneath mortal façade Transcend thresholds In hermetic martyrdom The path to divinity Is laid upon the bones of dreaming dead 06. Anhedonia Viscera coalesce Transmute into being Homunculus Receives Immaculate Breath Awakening in squalor Wet in shallow pool of melted bodies Obtains its gift Of unending mortality Haemorrhagic entity Thrust out from barren caecum Pustulent corpse reanimate Steeped in putrescence Tows defleshed to zenith Flaccid limbs raze the shrine Observes in dominion Pathetic miasma of human waste Unmoved by artifice Considers its judgment 07. Opening the Passage Pentacle of horrors Exhume squalid tomb Black bile dissolving bonds Heaving odium Rejecting banishment Crawling swollen with effluvium Seeking the gateway Spewing forth from the aperture Opening of the passage Dredged up within decayed utmost chasm The mortal curse escapes futile confinement Its ouroboric cycle perpetuated Thick with sour redolence of recomposed godflesh The revealed shall be hidden What is closed shall thus be opened Ignominious forms Rising from foul abyss Gathering relentless Seeping coagulant of eldritch putrefaction Viscid caustic fluxion Interdimensional vomit [B. Sloan/ L. Fischer/ B. Sloan/ L. Fischer] Quickening toward the seal Manifest eidolon grasp the boundary Ruptured bowels of contagion Spewing forth from the aperture Opening of the passage 08. Inauspicious Prayer[Instrumental]
