lyrics

As flames reprise, annihilation precedes dawn
The ancient ways
Bestirs before, from the sacred myths of UR
From malice are born

Ascending states, our bodies left behind
The fate of Enuki
The soul reborn, emerges before my eyes
Of the Elysian void

The sacred flame that we call upon
Decays in time as echoes respond
The Scarred veins of the curator’s hands
Bound by Lesions that form in sand

The fumes of decay, rise from beneath the void
Of Chaos and war
An era of thralls, the dawn of mankind
Created flesh born souls

We follow the torch, that lights our path to glory
To an ending of all
Unity in death, countless souls converge
As I become, bearer of the sacred flame

Primitive celestial forms
Long before our cosmology
Created in the absence of light
Forming shadows as pathways that I walk

We’re guided by the glyphs of the ancients
Odyssean journey through the ethereal divide
As I reignite the arcane embers
Nocturnal luminescence reflects my thoughts

As the bearers pass, a monument of our demise
Before our fathers
Into the rivers, the knowledge of Titans flow
Into the centric mind

Into the flames, a never-ending tide
Quenching the thirst
This soul preservation, in departure from the skies
Casts your existence into the void

It's dark, melodic and heavy, with contrasting sections of a more mellow nature. Striving to push boundaries with their music, Anakim forever seek unity between brutality and melody, finding balance between chaos and order. ... more
