Here Begins The Fall - Necronautical

The steadfast stone engraved with hypocrisy

Imposed upon the right to exist

An obelisk to appease atrocity

Commanding awe to compel you to forgive

The cult of the selfless

A moralist front

To redefine virtue as the serving of vice

Oblivion becomes your final measure of faith

The cosmic guilt of which their code’s comprised

That their revelation is in conflict with your will

Upon false foundations

An unchanging law of self-immolation

That you must destroy yourself to be pure

Hre begins the fall

Inaction built thse walls, our indifference monolithic

An endless penance for a crime yet uncommitted

Here begins the fall

A sin without volition, shows inherent flaws

In the stonework of the prison, here begins the fall

We are but animals born to be sacrificed

Upon the altar of altruism

All default to exaltation

As one, all abide

At one, all await

The promises empty, the solace is broken again

Slaved by this mystical deceit

Values enshrined that self-abnegation is spiritual

Our every impulse is denied
