lyrics

These eyes
Starved like the hunter
Devour
Earth, moon and Sky

I ascend an ancient staircase
Risen beside a rain formed artery.
Where I look inside,
An empty temple.
My Chambers in entropy.

The planet’s serene face turns from the bleeding sun
And I become no one..

Forevermore!
My mind’s afflicted with wanderlust
Forevermore!
My heartstrings covered in caustic rust.
Can not the vastness swallow me?
will inquisition seize my breathing?

...and Reveal with clarity
These esoteric patterns before me
In these lonely giants of stone

The lantern dims
The fragments of light return
through the pitch black
I know beauty lives

But Even so…
at the end of this labyrinth
Misanthropy wakes & rises
No Peace beneath
My worn thin sole..

Condemned
To struggle till the surface.
Is there any closure to suffering?


Any meaning behind the burden?
staying alive...for what?
Why hasn’t God damned us all?

So I Pray for hell!
the iron cloud of war
To cover the world in ash
I brace for death - brace for death.
As I Pray for the sweet embrace of hell.

The North Carolina metal group As Oceans has been described as crushing and furious with a unique take on heavy music. Earth-moving guitar riffs paired with vicious vocals and pounding drums, As Oceans grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. As Oceans’ music hauntingly fits with what is alluded through their name; a force of vast power and infinite mystery. ... more
