The Architect of Annihilation
Symbiotic Growth
Kneel before thee, the old Wolves spoke, Voices in my mind Without a lick of the tongue Oh forest spirit, great one, help us reclaim, Greed & Industry has come Consuming land, devouring everything Tendrils of hatred consume us once more Forged to protect every living thing I feel the anger Taking over my mind A plague of ash, a storm of embers Birthing clouds of poisonous soot Decay and Rot; logs of timBER Destroying the homes of the earth Homes of the earth} The culling of ancient ones We must retake the promised land Retake the forest, mother of earth The absence of light Poisonous clouds showing promise of Rain Foreshadowing plight Culling the spirits of this earthly plane What can we do Stop the machine before it's too late Using this curse To make industry fall to it's knees Hope you feel good now Eviscerating forest spirits Now up in smoke And a trail of worms The hatred takes us over Oh nameless one of rage and hate Pass on in peace and bear us no hatred With our lives we protect the land until we die And as smoke escapes his lips The vision he projects A line of sight made for my eyes I can see it all I see the disease They fall to their knees With destruction through flame A land lost to greed Must be reclaimed Before we lose our way As I awaken, lucid dreams The ancients whisper to me Heed my warning, This was not a dream But a vision of the past Of one we must not repeat

A man journeys through all of his alternate reality's, trying to find some kind of meaning to life, dreaming for a reason to live, are the answers in front of him or are they through the hangman's noose.

The album follows him on his journey to all these places, finding himself floating within the cosmos, laying down in tall grass before a abandoned church, braving land locked deserts, contemplating his life
