Lyrics
D'un gouffre inassouvissable, son panthéon
La facette de sa quête, son opposition
Du haut de son morbide trône d'extravagance
Exploitant et fusionnant la véhémence
Incommensurable appétit
Indomptable être dépéri
Ancré dans la prédation
Emporté dans la dépravation
Du haut de sa vanité
À la vitesse de sa montée
Il sombra dans la cupidité
Survolant les acres d'obsolescence
Hantant les seuils d'innocence
Puisant l'âme dans l'affaiblissement, traîné par les extirpeurs
Physiquement traité devant l'immonde, l'exhumation dite en torpeur
Inculqué à la quête du festin propice
À l'assaut des chemins, propulsé au fond du précipice
Enfermé dans l'insanité j'en fus enclin à basculer
Déchiqueté et éparpillé, j'en fus reconstitué
L'hypotésance de l'âme
L'inassouvissable soif du manque, le perforant
L'inertie innondante l'infinitésimalité de sa masse hideuse
Catalysant l'infection de sa faim
La faisant grandir de jour en jour
Gloutonnerie étant devenue monnaie courante
Gloutonnerie étant devenue fontaine de jouvence
Gula s'appropria l'arborescence de cette existence
Puis Gula se retrouva devant le trépas et devant sa fin se leva
Implorant sa mort par l'ingérence de son confort
Il en démontra que l'excentricité de sa panse
Combattant le feu par le feu
Son impitoyable règne, je le pourfendrai
Sa gargantuesque injustice, je la détruirai

D'un gouffre, inassouvissable
Atteingnant la cime qu'en extirpant l'insaisissable
Dans les panthéons de la possession
S'en gavant de l'opposition
Du haut de son morbide trône d'extravagance
Fusionnant et exploitant la véhémence
Incommensurable appétit
Indomptable être dépérit
Ancré dans la prédation
Emporté dans la dépravation
Du haut de sa vanité
À la vitesse de sa montée, il sombrera dans la cupidité

Album: Pentagramnation [2009]
Song: 09 - Opus Requiem
Lyrics
And so he was turned away
To hide faces, guilt among the trees
Life froze in his veins
His limbs root to the ground
The failed soul runs a river of sorrow
Living yet breathless, he fades to a dark shade
At last the voice remained, vanished into gray
Far from fair kingdoms the voice has life. . .
The infernal river is unsettled by his crossing
Away from three-headed guardians
He runs towards the shade of life
His song ascends to the mount of heaven
Solo: James Murphy
As he runs from Hades
Turned around losing her to darkness
Alone with the standing trees
The deepest wild
They say he was swallowed by a river full of rage
His blood is the vengeful River
His bones are the stones
His soul calls to her eternally
Solo: Istvan
Reaching only darkness
The voice remains captured by his sorrow and pain
Then slowly fades like a dying flame
Solo: Istvan

Song: 02 - Burnt but Not Carbonized
Lyrics
Beyond my culinary knowledge
I found a fascinating flavour
The subtle taste of human flesh
Something thats usually taboo
Rich in proteins
And unlimited
Human bodies will never end
Tons of people die every day
Eating human corpses
Dont turn me into a criminal
If I dont kill anyone
Who cares whats my food...
I just take cadavers
From morgues and graveyards
Fuck the worms, its my food
Im gonna take it all!
Biceps, thighs and gluteus
Are the most tenfer meaty parts
I have to take them all
Before they start to rot away
(x2)
Beyond my culinary knowledge
I found a fascinating flavour
The subtle taste of human flesh
Something thats usually taboo
I have an oddity
I like my meat overdone
I like my meat nearly burst
Burnt but not carbonized!!
Lots of crusty human ribs
Suculent red (????)
Tasty well-done steak
A human barbeque
Eating human corpses
Dont turn me into a criminal
If I dont kill anyone
Who cares whats my food...
I just take cadavers
From morgues and graveyards
Fuck the worms, its my food
Im gonna take it all!
I have an oddity
I like my meat overdone
I like my meat nearly burst

Song: 02 - Fuck the Ways of Christ
Lyrics
2000 years ago has been enough, its time to cast out Christian thought
The worship of a bastard is absurd, these ways must be fought
No more confessions or worthless prayers, guilt and faith we dont need
Rely upon thy self, not some idol god, self preservation is key
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ
Adam and Eve were just a myth, evolution shows the proof
The meek shall never inherit the earth, Darwin, he wrote the truth
The words Thou shalt are for slaves not for those who rise above
Love thy neighbor is a fuckin joke for few are worthy of my love
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ
Purification day has arrived, the Jesus freaks are revealing their ways
Soon the masses will wake up, that will be the Churchs final days
Every empire that has stood strong has fallen in the past
Christianity is no exception, its godly reign will never last
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ
Fuck the ways of Christ, fuck the ways of Christ

Song: 09 - Alone in the End
Lyrics
Every word, exactly what I need.
horrible truths erased
quiet whispers spin me in perfection
where nothing can be wrong.
her body shudders in ecstasy as I caress her flesh.
The sound of her breathing hypnotizes me soothing me into a deeper state of bliss.
Everything that escapes her lips is exactly what I need to hear.
She says Im perfect, Im beautiful, smart, so pure.
Every word contradicts my thoughts.
The voice inside me escapes
Maybe she just knew what to say
To dissolve all of my pain
Being with her is everything
I love her-she makes me love me.
Im not alone
Im left alone Hacksaw To The Throat - Alone in the End](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/S65nbxniPsM/mqdefault.jpg)

Lyrics
Désintégré, aspiré dans lantre, prisonnier
Suppression de la raison
Délaissant lhumanité
Désastre sera léradication
Pestilence appellera la reconstruction
Éther consommera la désolation
Ignorance aidera labduction
Vengeance complétera labsolution
Tous ensemble ils amèneront la perdition
La dégénérescence de mon alter ego
Laissé pour contre dans labysse
Laissé pour pourrir dans les limbes
Architecte de leffondrement
Laissé pour errer dans lhécatombe
Absorbé par lentité, inculqué par lennemie
Aux abords du subconscient
Lefflorescence de ma nouvelle enveloppe
La protubérance me consumera, la déflagration musurpera
Glissant sur les pentes du fantasme, cataclysme
Magnifique apocalypse
Flirtant avec la démence
De lhorreur imprévue de lêtre empoisonné
Assistant à léveil du dernier acte
De cette haine, jen conçu léloge à la Dénaissance
Contorsionné dans cet habitacle, je diverge, jatteins linatteignable
Hypnotisé par linertie, périssant dans loubli
Désastre sera léradication
Pestilence appellera la reconstruction
Éther consommera la désolation
Ignorance aidera labduction
Vengeance complétera labsolution
Tous ensemble ils amèneront la perdition
Tu en seras mon assimilation, ma marionnette de prédilection
Mirrationalisant, me métamorphosant tout en masphyxiant
Le sujet de ma manipulation, lobjet de ma décomposition
Décarapaçant mon engouement, annihilant la dernière parcelle de mon engagement
La dégénérescence de mon alter ego
Laissé pour contre dans labysse
Laissé pour pourrir dans les limbes
Architecte de leffondrement
Laissé pour errer dans lhécatombe
Absorbé par lentité, inculqué par lennemi
Aux abords du subconscient
Lefflorescence de ma nouvelle enveloppe
La protubérance me consumera, la déflagration musurpera
Le sujet de ma manipulation, lobjet de ma décomposition
Décarapaçant mon engouement, annihilant la dernière parcelle de mon engagement
