The Immortal 06:09
The Immortal Leaving behind a trail of devastation Never looking back Terrified to witness the wake of blood and bones Can’t run from the sands of time They take no prisoners Ashes to ashes, dust to dust All things must die Live long enough and you will find There are worse things than death Ashes to ashes, dust to dust All things must die On a quest for immortality, she reaches the sky Little changes, day after day, nothing’s what it seems A serpent crawling in the dust, biting its own tail Giving everything to have it all, creating her own hell Her face grows thin and hollow The light has left her eyes Beauty devoid of humanity Breathing, but hardly alive Can’t run from the sands of time They take no prisoners Ashes to ashes, dust to dust All things must die Live long enough and you will find There are worse things than death Ashes to ashes, dust to dust All things must die

Lobotomy 06:18
Lobotomy Running around in circles Screaming at the wall But they can’t hear me No one ever hears me Lock me up in shackles In a padded cell They don’t believe me They never believe me They tell me none of this is real I feel things no one else can feel Fighting all my senses Can’t trust my memory I didn’t hurt them I swear I never hurt them Is it even a crime if I can’t remember They don’t believe me Why does no one believe me I can see them in the corner of my eye When I turn around they disappear from sight Spiders and snakes make no mistakes crawling inside, inside my brain I found the truth They ripped it away

Ragnarok 08:26
Ragnarök When the earth is still and the last flame dies, the gods are ready to rise The invaders are marching The gates of Hell are near Darkness swallows the stars Submerged in the lifeblood a new world is reborn Only the two can survive All has come to pass, that which has been foretold The battle for the end has begun It has begun The beast emerges from the deep His ancient bonds are broken Wings of flame alight the sky Destruction reigns over all Lava flows, oceans freeze, mountains crumble into dust All has come to pass, that which has been foretold

Supernova 04:33
Supernova Time doesn’t seem the same Like a bullet to the brain Only the madness remains Lurking in the space between dreams and reality is a fading light Sometimes it’s alright to die Feeding on the ashes of all the wasted years Mourning what could have been Time doesn’t seem the same Like a bullet to the brain Only the madness remains
5.
Deathwish 04:27
Deathwish Sharpen up your dagger check the one-eyed jack hiding up your sleeve Living with a deathwish No second chances this time If they catch you, you’ll be dining with the demons tonight What’s hiding around the corner Will you meet your match this time Can you hear them calling, calling to take you away Say your prayers to the dark one or the god who abandoned you You’re gonna meet one of them soon Breaking into the fortress No man has lived to tell the tale They’re gonna find you and you’ll be dining with the demons tonight What’s hiding around the corner Will you meet your match this time Can you hear them calling, calling to take you away
6.
Beyond the Veil See the white bird crying softly through the fire Silent screaming Lights are dancing over my head When they burn out, see the white bird drown The room is spinning The floor is sinking The walls are breathing Into the tunnel Crawling fast but going nowhere Floating, flying The door won’t open until it wants to Ancient spiders guarding the wine of ages Laughter in the dark Thunder and lightning inside the box with rusted hinges Hear it, can’t you hear it screaming Lifeless feathers in the water
7.
The Seventh Vortex Swallow the sun, feel your bones turn to dust Clothed in nothing but the sky Give yourself to the one with broken wings She can fly you to the seventh vortex Free yourself from the chains of your will The dragonfly will show you the way Taste the bliss of complete helplessness As you fly to the seventh vortex I wanna take you to a place you’ve never seen Meet the demons the reside in you and in me I’m gonna take you to a place behind your wildest dreams When you feel it you can never go back I’m your demon, I’m your love Break yourself free from the chains that bind you to this world As you’re flying to the seventh vortex I wanna take you to a place you’ve never seen Meet the demons that reside in you and in me I’m gonna take you to a place behind your wildest dreams When you feel it you can never go back

Sacrifice 09:34
Sacrifice Purity in white Not a tear is shed Purpose-filled footsteps Slowly to the edge Too young to die Too scared to fight Into the fire The gods require their sacrifice Like a lamb to the slaughter No longer her mother’s daughter Ashes on her face and hands Getting hard to breathe One more to join the ranks of countless innocent lives Given to the deity sleeping in the mountain In the mountain the gods are sleeping When she jumps in, they’ll be feeding Purity in white Not a tear is shed Purpose-filled footsteps Getting close to the edge I’m too young to die I’m too scared to fight Into the fire The gods require their sacrifice

about

With overdriven tube amplifiers, cranked fuzz pedals, feedback, wah pedals, drop tuning, heavy down tempo riffs, hard hitting drums, and powerful bluesy vocals, Astral Cult was formed.
