World-without-us

Been around to the world's end
The ever-gurgling vista of anguish
And on it there slither the last men
Decayed shapes buried in firn

Step into the ice
And see a path unfold
The loneliness of denudation
Radical un-meaning
Dim and impenetrable
Like solitude of the dead
Them prey of worms
Their bones picked clean

On to the very pit of silence
By the fuming trail of ruin
To the bleeding edge of rupture
Each step an erasure
Strict abrasion, leaving nothing but absence
As threads snap in boundless night

Dead dust swirls in the dark
Let it perish, let it fade, let it smolder to ash

Katargein
Heḥərîm
Pulverize the world and raze it with salt

Defiance
Denial
Abolish what little concord there's left

Lost trace of the confusions
Cold grains crawl upwards

Step into the ice
And see a path unfold
From one state of contempt to the next
To the radix of godhood
To the world-without-us

Katargein
Heḥərîm
Pulverize the world and raze it with salt

Defiance
Denial
Abolish what little concord there's left

Katargein
Heḥərîm
Pulverize the world and raze it with salt

Defiance
Denial
Abolish what little concord there's left
