Seventh Circle (Second Ring)

by Asken Av Verden

/
1.
The pain of my deeds Overpowers my soul Solitude, self-imposed Suffering by choice The sperm contained on my hand A visage of your lifeless body Mutilation of the sinful flesh, mine My desires flow through my anger
2.
A new beggining Without direction Chaos reigns On this unformed earth Nothing is forgotten None of you forgiven Finally a deserved torment New beginning A fresh new start But my mind is alredy broken There’s no healing Tired of hurting I’ll turn my rage towards myself
3.
Cursed by nature To exercise free will Yet damned as punishment To be the ender Forced into a prophecy A quest in search of meaning Orchestrated and tricked To be the Judgement Angel Pain, falsehood, lies Pain, falsehood, lies Pain, falsehood, lies Pain, falsehood, lies Pain, falsehood, lies I’ll rise back up A new God brimming with hatred For mankind shall be no more For mankind shall be no more
4.
The glory of Israel will fly away like a bird, for your children will die at birth or perish in the womb or never even be conceived.  Even if your children do survive to grow up, I will take them from you.  It will be a terrible day when I turn away and leave you alone.  I have watched Israel become as beautiful and pleasant as Tyre.  But now Israel will bring out her children to be slaughtered. All their wickedness began at Gilgal; there I began to hate them.  I will drive them from my land because of their evil actions.  I will love them no more because all their leaders are rebels.  The people of Israel are stricken.  Their roots are dried up; they will bear no more fruit. And if they give birth, I will slaughter their beloved children. -Hosea 9:11-16

about

The title is a reference to the Divine Comedy, where the 7th circle of hell is where those who committed acts of violence go, with its second ring reserved for those who enacted said violence against themselves.

Once more i return to an empty space after improvising a whole album in less than a week.
I've doubled down in Noise, in Black Metal, in Biblical themes and in Evangelion references. Because that's what i felt like.
This time it wasn't as therapeutic as the last release, mostly because i started to get more depressed once i started and not the other way around.
