Mortal desires
Scratching at the door of ancient knowledge
Planting seeds in his mind to come their way
Temptations of the flesh shall be his bane
Promises of gold, lovers, and power
Influence over the realms of mortal men
Silvered words spun from the Serpent’s tongue
Ensuring once again their time has come
Once expelled from the mortal realms
Teaching lost, temples burned in ignorance
Apostasy burning from withing
Led by short sighted, weak, and frail men
Resurrection
Of the old forgotten ways
Downfall
To the realms of mortal men
Whispers calling out to him
Written on the pages of an ancient tome
Blood binds these words to this realms
Guiding him to their sepulcher
Resurrection
Of the old forgotten ways
Downfall
To the realms of mortal men

Temptation of Flesh

Weakness, found in life
Clawing up, through the flesh
Answers he seeks, not in vain
Soon will find, lost to time
Towards death time crawls, no escape
Mortal weakness, closing in
In search of an answer, a text was found
Ravings of a mad man, once forsaken
Ancient Gods, lost to time
A sacred shrine, in which to find
Towards death time crawls, no escape
Mortal weakness, closing in
In search of the ancient shrine, of forgotten gods
Buried beneath the surface, in the western mountains
A tome rests on a pedestal, calling forth to him
Opening up to secrets, to abate his every whim
Forging beyond this death
Rising beyond this life
Whispers come to him, calling to the pages
A labyrinth he must find, the key awaits him there
Promises of power, a corruption from within
The Ahmet again have risen, their champion arrived
Forging beyond this death
Rising beyond this life

Twisting and turning
Through walls of stone
The way is pitch black
Save light of the torch
Lost his way
Walls ever changing
Entrance is lost
There’s no escape now
Scarred stone walls, bones underfoot
Catacombs to failure, a fate worse than death
A creature stalking
It’s on the hunt
A howl of delight
Kill the trespasser
Heart is pounding
Golem behind him
A light up ahead
Escape in reach
Scarred stone walls, bones underfoot
Catacombs to failure, a fate worse than death

Triumphant
Escape from the Labyrinth
Beast howls behind him
Trapped within it’s walls
Devour, take unto you
Devour, give unto us
Pulsing
Bleeding from it’s cradle
Whispered words all around
Calling out to him
Devour, take unto you
Devour, give unto us
Take the heart from it’s pedestal
Bleeding in his hands
Knowing what he must do now
Placing up to his lips
Biting into the pulsating flesh
Blood washes through his gullet
Light leaves his eyes as he falls to the ground
Lifeless carcass

In the absence of life
His soul is called to flesh
Binding to this husk
The heart has taken it’s place
Resurrection, brought back to life
Resurrection, his reign begins again
Hand reaches out to ethereal
Feeling his strength return
Memories flood back to his mind
The Gods will rue their betrayal
Resurrection, brought back to life
Resurrection, his reign begins again
This body far too weak
Incomplete and broken
The other pieces he must find
The path laid down before him
Resurrection, brought back to life
Resurrection, his reign begins again

Decay

Age gripping, tearing away
Flesh rots on these mortal bones
Eyes grow dark, world gone gray
Time strips all kings from their thrones
Breathe, powers returning
Decay, follows my path
Devoured this mortal’s soul
Time wont turn back despite my gains
The candle burns down there’s no sway
Relics I seek, wont be in vain
Breathe, powers returning
Decay, follows my path
I seek now the relics of my past
Time will not defeat me as I ascend once more
I cast away my death
I denounce the laws of time
I arise a God
I arise Aluvir
