Qliphosis
Alkaloid Lyrics

Outside the endless stupor
Beyond the perpetual daze and numbness

Of life and death of any one creature
Surpassing the duality of existence and extinction for any singular being

There is no objective time
A realm exists where time is not an impartial measure

No unified place for all
And no singular location can accommodate everyone universally

Too far to reach
An unattainable distance lies beyond our grasp

Too long to hold on
An existence that is too fragile to maintain

To an existence doomed to shatter
For a life fated to fragment and collapse

No way to merge
There is no possibility to unite or combine

Before this blink of a life is gone
Prior to the fleeting moment of life’s passage

And chronology no longer matters
Wherever time's sequence loses its significance

Abscond
Escape and depart

Look beyond
Gaze further into the depths of existence

Beyond the trap of flesh
Transcending the confines of physical existence

Forsaken through eternities, by life abhorred
Abandoned through ages, rejected by the nature of life itself

For embodied immanence won't serve
Since a mere physical presence cannot fulfill a higher purpose

To manifest a single overlord
To give rise to a singular supreme entity

Withdraw
Retreat and pull back

Foreswear the law of finitude
Renounce the principles of limited existence

To gain continuous subsistence
In pursuit of uninterrupted existence

Outside time
Beyond the constraints of temporal reality

If anything can bridge the gaps
Should there be a force capable of connecting distant divides

Mortality cleaves through the cosmos
The experience of death cuts sharply across the universe

It's bionts that thrive
It is those living organisms that flourish

Where all else will fall, perish and scatter
In realms where everything else collapses, dies, and disperses

Clandestine hives absorb, revive
Secretive collectives reenergize and rejuvenate

Feared and shunned by all that crawls
Detested and avoided by every creeping creature

And yet only survives the void
Yet they alone endure the emptiness

Of vector collapse
Resulting from the disintegration of directed forces

Due to their strife
Because of their relentless struggle

Behold
Witness and observe

A new kingdom sprawls
A fresh dominion expands and spreads

Through the carnage of life's fallen shells
Amidst the destruction of life's remnants

Neither dead nor alive
Existing in a state that is neither fully lifeless nor entirely vibrant

Forever in the shadows to dwell
Eternally residing in the obscurity

Cthonic
Pertaining to the depths of the earth

Hidden agents abide
Concealed forces remain and exist

Coalesce and drive
Unite and propel forward

Perpetual rebirth
Endless cycles of revival

From the other side
Emerging from beyond our known existence

The Qliphoth stir
The Qliphoth awaken and become active

Catalysts of resurrection
Agents that incite and provoke rebirth

By spirit spurred
Motivated and inspired by spiritual forces

Foraging fatality
Seeking out and gathering mortality

Digest the world
Assimilate and absorb the entirety of existence

Antagonists of disconnection
Opposing forces of separation

Like gods unfurl
Similar to deities revealing their power

The origin of reality
The source from which all of existence springs

And when your flesh at last succumbs
And when your physical form ultimately surrenders

They come to take you back as one of their own
They arrive to reclaim you, embracing you as part of their collective
