lyrics

As our timeline decays into the ether
A never-ending cycle of death
Distils all life that drains the sun
Inert as the cold that envelops my heart

This projection, reaches higher
Of our mortality, we devour
Ripples across a primeval sea
Behold the serpentine form

Cascading into non-being
Re-born
Their souls are cleansed by the fires of eternity
Purified in rapture only the enlightened ascend

Feel his presence thrum in your veins
Scaled he encircles
A gift from the heavens passed down from the gods of the antisphere
And as the phantoms form
An inconceivable body of matter
Of infinite density that seizes the stricken life from your soul

An assembly of titans return to me
As I feel the surge of the ancient seers
Coursing through my veins
I banish all forms

Their virulence swirls into the neural cortex
Possessing the darkest corners of my mind
And inflicting unfathomable torment onto those
who stand before me

Feel his presence thrum in your veins
Scaled he encircles
A gift from the heavens passed down from the gods of the antisphere
And as the phantoms form
An inconceivable body of matter
Of infinite density that seizes the stricken life from your soul

I am led by the desire of fleshy pleasures
To drink the bitter wine of exquisite agony

We are the celestial creatures
Exiled from civilisation
Our knowledge from the stars
Summon the Sumerian demons
Of the underworld
Who drag humans down
Into the descent of Inanna

Black, Black, veins, veins, of, of, the unlight

From the veins
Coruscating black fire lances through
Of the unlight
Dimensional planes
Chaos bleeds
Our scorched wings
Chaos bleeds
Return

From the veins
From the mantle that casts a shadow
Of the unlight
On your soul
Chaos bleeds
A serpentine shape in
Chaos bleeds
Fire and stone

A feast of earthly delights
Sodomized by the beast's black heart
That blood curses the light in all forms
Transforming me into

A devolved ascendant
Wraith soul distorted rent from flesh
True purpose formed my skin splits
Now I tower above as those who came before

From the veins
From the mantle that casts a shadow...
Of the unlight
On your soul
Chaos bleeds
A serpentine shape in
Chaos bleeds
Fire and stone

Into the trails of the cyclical sun
Energy transforms from nothing to nothing

about

Anakim UK

Anakim's music has elements from many genres. With definite influences from death and black metal, there is also a progressive element to their music. 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
