It Must Be Done

Lista de faixas

• 1. Higherfall (05:30)
   copy

  (The Child has torn out its wings, and the two beings known as the Owl and Wolf are summoned.)
  
  From where have we fallen?
  Who's grace have we lost?
  Now what is my sin?
  The one they abhor?
  
  Whose hell is it, this time?
  Has the decay begun?
  Eternal whores of causal law
  This futile war once more!
  
  Know that we are now here!
  Watch the changes
  as they change
  Weak hearts not meant to grasp
  Strengthened by a uniformed facade
  
  Facade!
  
  Afflicted phallus
  Seeking spine
  Doubtful tongue
  Discerning heart
  Assimilating viscera
  Thoughtless flesh
  Ascending eyes
  The eyes! The eyes! The eyes!
  
  We are here now
  Why have you called us?
  Name yourself child
  Why have you called us?
  We are here now
  Why have you called us?
  Name yourself child
  Why have you called us?
  
  Speak your heart now
  Why have you called us?
  We shall hear you
  Why have you called us?
  Cast your fear out
  Why have you called us?
  Raise your eyes child!
  Why have you called us?!
  
  I
  Choose
  To fall!
• 2. Here Now the Gathered (05:22)
   copy

  (The Owl and Wolf share a brief glance; within that moment, much is understood.)
  
  A scream from a past forgotten
  Forgiven may your sins be
  But it haunts me in my memory
  Till the end of time
  I denounce my humanity!
  And still, there is one scream against this legion
  
  Charging against the wind
  Against the sands of time
  One sword, this burning fire
  No final desire
  
  Blessed by causality
  My soul is condemned
  To go on for eternity
  See it through
  Till the end!
  
  Light shines
  On the unsheathed sword
  Could it be the last time
  I see the light
  Again
  I can hear you beside me
  Come lend me your strength
  And now
  It matters not if the war is won!
  
  Gathered!
  Gathered!
  Gathered!
  Gathered...
  
  Gathered! The howl of the gathered! The howl of the gathered! I hear the howl of the gathered!
  
  Gathered! The howl of the gathered! The howl of the gathered! I hear...
  
  Oh Madness, seduce me
  This darkness has no use for me
  Unbound and endless
  I've glimpsed it within me
  The time will come
  The time has come
  The time will come!
  The time has come!
  For us to reign free!
• 3. Curse of Silence (04:23)
   copy

  (The Child speaks for the first time, its intention clear.)
  
  Why of all curses,
  This curse?
  The curse
  Of Silence
  
  The skies did not darken
  Nor did the smiles fade
  And so was stolen the innocence
  A cage born within a cage
  
  Consecrate
  Then desecrate
  My reasons of existence
  
  Violate
  And martyr me
  Keep the sacred river flowing
  
  Who's to be blamed?
  When one's right
  Is another's wrong
  What control was given
  To the insects washed
  Away by the storm
  
  Where is the truth?
  The essence of all pursuits
  Etched in our nature
  The future written
  At all costs we pursue
  
  Who is the Doer?
  Am I the Deceiver?!
  And now I watch myself ascend
  As I tear apart...
  
  I know what's right and wrong
  Yet my anger compels me
  What's mine cannot be me
  My sorrow commands me
  
  No price too high to pay
  Why won't they play their own game
  Not a single soul shall be left behind
  To hate and curse my name!
  
  Curse my name!
  
  Consecrate
  Then desecrate
  My reasons of existence
  
  Violate
  And martyr me
  Keep this sacred river flowing
  
  The consequence
  Of guilt and shame
  Will not change a single thing
  
  Chosen to fall
  Destined to fail
  I shall bear all their sins!
• 4. Resolve of the Shattered Voice (04:52)
   copy

  (The Wolf responds to the child after it has made its intent known. The Owl responds, but the realization of what is inevitable dawns on him.)
  
  Such familiar words
  From a voice
  I've heard before
  
  My soul recognizes yours
  The twice shattered
  once again reforms
  
  All the births and the deaths
  The pointless futile battles
  The worlds we have crossed
  To bring you the words
  
  Our fury is ancient
  Our sorrow is ancient
  This desire so ancient
  On the same soil it stands!
  
  It matters not, if the war is ever won
  The only solace left is within the storm...
  Lead your demons
  “Follow! Get in line!”
  Potent Magick! Thou shall be thine own sign!
  
  Realize what you really are
  Reclaim the throne
  The power that was never lost
  Nothing; Noone
  Shall deny
  Our birthright!
  
  Oh Seed, can you see?
  The glorious tree that you'll flourish to be?
  
  The gates are now open
  The miracle
  Tainted not scarred
  
  Can you see your own reflection?
  The two
  Within one
  
  Fool!
  What have you done?!
  You have cursed us all!
  Cursed us all!
  and I foresee your downfall!
  
  This is no mere genocide
  Forcing my hand
  Betrayal and suicide
  Our unholy suicide!
  
  I offer not my wings
  But my very life
  Can you see your own reflection?
  My curse will give you sight
• 5. Torn Wings Shall Grow (03:28)
   copy

  (The Child contemplates its actions and the resulting consequences, but all it does is strengthen its resolve.)
• 6. Resolve of the Bowed Head (05:24)
   copy

  (The Goddess of Causality has reared its face. The two now must make a decision and accept the consequences that come with it.)
  
  Blessed are the ones that cannot see
  No choices can be made in waking dreams
  Seeking a sun that shines but never seen
  What else can we do in a world where no one wins
  
  Will you look away for once?
  Will you make the first move?
  When everyone is watching
  and when no one else sees
  
  I am not the one that stands before you
  I am not the one who breathes
  Dragged by a million different currents
  And all paths lead me to this
  
  I am not the monster that stands before you
  I am not the one who breathes
  Dragged by a million different currents
  And all paths lead me to thee
  
  Fall Deceiver
  Die Deceiver, Deceiver
  Rise Deceiver
  Strike Deceiver, Deceiver
  
  It must be done...
  (25/12/2019 18:01)
  
  Oh inert God!
  The line is crossed
  Even you can't hope
  To uphold the silence and rot!
  
  The wish must be granted
  His will shall be done
  And none shall bear witness
  How what is to come
  
  No lie shall be spoken
  No truth be concealed
  armed with these as my weapons
  With resolve I shall wield
• 7. 44th Stutter (01:02)
   copy

  (It is done. What was meant to happen, happened, but to whom does the blame really belong?)
