Beyond Grief 04:25
A suicide note was written From his distorted mind With anger and despair In an evil state The pain of humiliation A mental disease Painful childhood Misanthropic visions Wrong conception of life Memories of wrath Pessimistic wisdom Unfair punishment "Pathetic human race... No one can see the cruel reality" Beyond grief Beyond death Unholy existence Sentenced to the end Damnation after death With every dream a tear Atrocity in the past Loneliness at side Echoes from behind Death as only way Has pulled the trigger Destiny's mistake No one really cares His putrid body still there "Pathetic human race... No one can see the cruel reality" Beyond grief Beyond death

Living through centuries Dawn rising of the crypt Sunlight on the sill Forbidden to see the sun again In darkness I will forever remain What could have been my life? Cursing my birth, enclosing me inside, through midnight mist I saw them live, I saw them die, macabre dreams Hope for the worst, I wash my wounds into the pits From bleary eyes to savage bliss; the freezing breeze Death hasn’t been reached, allow me to live; through gray labyrinths The mental landscape is covered with doubts, let me be free There is no sunrise And the words beat against my skull Will you still believe in me? Even though I don't believe in you The perfection of nothingness In the pits of anguish
3.
My bones disintegrate under martyrdom I hold your skull over the sun set In ruins, I contemplate your fall They won't find the lost corpse We aren't the navel of the world but the cord has been cut... Some call me symbol – Nobody knows my name Another failed creation – with demoralizing faith Where's my identity? – drifting the unreality It's the end of something... and that’ something calls my death Worn out, away and further down A jump from dreams to death We have healed from a thousand wounds Only to fail again Some call me symbol – Nobody knows my name Another failed creation – with demoralizing faith Where's my identity? – drifting the unreality It's the end of something... and that’ something calls my death Open the gate – to them selves A common fate – oblivion Still my wait – the deeds are done Forsaken secrets – you might know We're merely born – let them crawl As incision – your tainted flesh Into the void – omen beyond There's no forgiveness – for dying in vain
4.
Watching me, the reality I left behind Delusions resurfaced over time Bury deep in the sand this feel Life goes on, there's no doubt This confirm my memories On the eve of my decay In order to escape from this pain Dragging along the wounded body Haunted by my own words Came here where is no peace To my tormented head This is Heaven or this is Hell You know it well, live in tempest Decades of suffer will lie ahead, we're united Not alive or ever dead Embrace the pain and you wear it so well Punished, everything ends in agony, death comes slowly Gloomy are the ways... gloomy are the ways to decay
5.
Tied to the dark Where are your worshippers now? A god to taking down Blood shall feed new seeds Let me guide you Towards the greatest conquests Lead us to the war Lead us into the grave The ability of solitude Invisible in the silence Await your epitaph To crush, to slaughter By the wings of death My will doesn't want to bend See the black sun rise Where clouds meet the seas The eyes I look through, they should be In your world of darkness Show me at least One sign that takes me To reach the victory Fields of blood - await for us Our kingdom come - don't pray for hope We stand in front - till the day is done Throw the past - into the void Our time is now - moments to remember
6.
What happens to the pain, when the body fades away? How the feeling of life has changed? Who wants to live eternally? A tenebrous cross, killed the charms of life Slave to his light, lost his only way The self-destructive passion in front of reason Take your pernicious shadow of illusions Sentences to the degeneration of your worship The hidden truth, before your eyes Heaven doesn’t wait, time to die! Creeds only serve, to hide reality, not to reveal it Go back into another form, whispering sins I will look for you, among the ashes What happens to the pain, when the body fades away? How the feeling of life has changed? Who wants to live eternally? The self-destructive passion in front of reason Take your pernicious shadow of illusions Sentences to the degeneration of your worship The hidden truth, before your eyes Heaven doesn’t wait, time to die!

Wrath! Living moments of grace, a torment brought to the end Bound in the shackles of grace, like a torrent. Live at high speed now! Long and solemn are the ways. It has been special living on the edge They told us how the flock burns, a torch on his throne Devoured until decline A constant collapse of weak thoughts To slit throats… Inner war, nevermore - to the fire itself Devastated, now I'm falling - to the fire your soul Demolished, give me more - to the fire pleasures Your scorn, forevermore - to the fire itself Path to perdition - my living torment Path to perdition - my eternal torment Living moments of grace, why? Live at high speed now! Long and solemn are the ways, disgrace. Let the flock burns now! Put an end to the torment, special is living on the edge I feed on their scorn, a torch on his throne
8.
My night awakes in a strange reality My closed eyes dissolve, in the presage of time Covered by your absence, open is the image To the landscape of the unknown, I couldn't see who I was Devouring the mystery Between swirls of signs In the furrows of time Premeditation of a rite Trembling towards the past Could teach us to walk again Embed ourselves at last In this darkened place of loss Somewhere from fear - somewhere in my blood Can we be part? - No one spoke a word It's here where my heart beats - my raw obsession Let’s see beyond - from the unknown May our spirits awake and never fail to read the secrets My closed eyes dissolve, in the presage of time Covered by your absence, open is the image Somewhere in this red horizon, an early gift was given Devouring the mystery Between swirls of signs In the furrows of time Premeditation of a rite Trembling towards the past Could teach us to walk again Embed ourselves at last In this darkened place of loss

about

"Through the Abysmal Gates of Subconscious" is CATHARTIC's debut full-length album, and its musical style can be defined as a return to the roots of death metal, with a hint of melody and doom. A clever combination of fast and catchy riffs and just the right amount of slow and intense heavy parts make up its sound.
