NE OBLIVISCARIS – EXUL (LYRICS)

01: EQUUS

Our fields alight

Is this a dream?

Glowing inferno

Reborn, red dawn

Searing, auric chariot

With karmic wheels, they burn again

The karmic wheels, turning again

Life devoured

The ruin, the blackened, these skinless halls

Bones laid bare, the bones of all

The garden deafened

To emerald’s end

Breathing synergy

Wild winds away - to glorify

Through the ashen haze

Reborn, black gaze

Searing, auric chariot

With karmic wheels, they turn again

The karmic wheels, burning again

Flame-kissed manes

Winds cascading dawn

Of Boudica born

The earthen canvas, rivers of scars

Coursing, hooves beating, breathless

Forgotten forever

Burning again, burning again

Burning again, burning again

Her name is Mother...

Mother - And hell follows with Her

From ashen cities, grey auras, behold her pale horses

Framed by hell and veiled from heaven - this Pandemonium

Tears upon scorched dreams, pouring into chasms that seethe

Tidings tolled, too late, drowning as the shadows unfold

Running - wild resistance

Bearing - the weight of the world

Rearing from the ghosts of the past

Dancing in clouds, dressage to the nameless dead

Echoed cries cast into the air

Inhaling the spirit of rein and ruin

All the rage

Exhaling what remains of reason

And this misery

All these memories

Fleeing - dying

Are these memories all dreams?

All these memories

Fear and pain, all...

Never to be free

All these memories

-Fade away-

Eyes closed to the sun, the sun

Lost in tears of silence

02: MISERICORDE I – AS THE FLESH FALLS

Foresight - finite

Praised angels, as the flesh falls

War from within

Within

’Neath armour, this withered skin

Righteous and malignant

This poisoned pale

Glorious putrefaction

Pray - gauntlets in gleam

Wielding lights and lies

Blessings of disease

Life’s embrace

Blessings of disease

Life’s embrace

Malaise concealed, my shell

Of denial and dissonance

Darkest greys

Into the fray

Glancing of blades, the carbon tongues

Dance of crippled rebellion

Eyes inflamed by light

Praised angels, as the flesh falls

War from within

Within

Life defiled - faithless

Befouled, betrayed

Hand in hand - on hilt

Madness - Divine reason

Fleeting peace

Preordained

The struggling

Waning war cry

A painted shield

My decaying portrait

Foreseen, my limned last days

Shedding armour, unfurled wings

Failing, alone

Hail desolation

03: MISERICORDE II – ANATOMY OF QUIESCENCE

Fall into the abyss of the sky

Epitaph...

None of God, one of I

Rising celestial burial

Wordless cries

Quietus

Of the light

Precipice of all, I release myself

Radiant and real

Purged agony, all the grief

Acceptance, my arms aloft, my crucifix

Lived my way

Fall away

04: SUSPYRE

Kneel, convergence

Deformed to the will, oh heir of the air

And in this final judgement

The breath of farewell

Divergence, blood eagles

The vessel of vanity, breaking the cage

The pillar of being, life-lined maypole

Metanoia - lost

Writhing within timeless currents

A figurehead surging above

Ascension

Ascension

Aeolian

Life ephemeral

Soaring, reeling, free

Of mortality, winds empyreal

Awake

Of mortality, we are

We are nothing

Worlds disintegrate within worlds

Nebulous

Chaos detritus

As we rise

As we rise

Everywhere

Nowhere

Disintegrate

Light’s debris

Elemental

Shapeless

Evanesce

Aetheris

Our kingdom without walls

Draped in light's debris

Death, the one truth

All that we touch, all that we are

The shapeless, we evanesce

There is only nowhere

Inherit, inhale, the dust of kings

Rise to purity and silence

Deconstructed creation

Tear us apart

Aeolian

Life ephemeral

Soaring, reeling, free

Of mortality, winds empyreal

I’m awake, I’m awake

Empyreal, awake

Of mortality, we are

We are nothing

We are nothing

Inherit death

We are nothing

Inherit death

05: GRAAL

Dust of dissonance

The grey aura

Drift of the pariah

Of the gathering

Hauling ley lines

Through the catacombs

Weaving day into day

Within the reliquary

The heart that beats

The heart that beats is out of reach

Carry the stones

Of lapidation

The burden outcast

Walk the barren vast

Dragging the barren past

Wandering the ever gloaming

The introspection

Light’s miasma

Pilgrim

Eternity

The marching, the flayed

Pain of veils

Ossified

Desolation’s sea

Sorrow, the path to the end

Faceless horizon

Where silence listens to silence

Rippling call, of the holy grail

Gorge the blood of God

Blood of God of Self

Purge all poison

There is only dust

Humanity is gone

06: ANHEDONIA

Suspyre is indeed now my favourite track from the Album! Musically and Lyrically both way are my most favourites now. A song about our mortality, amazing! Start of the pandemic, many more thought as such. ‘Life ephemeral’, yet many people are living as if human life is eternal. I think that, so these lyrics attract to me more! 🤘😍 Thank you Xen! For these brilliant lyrics 🙏

Dominika

First of all, they are all amazing... as I was listening to the album earlier and reading the lyrics now, every track touched me in some way... Equus has had a very strong impression on me from the very first time I heard it... a beautiful song with very powerful and emotional lyrics... Now I must say Misericorde stands out for me as it's quite hitting home at the moment. Hail desolation...

Karolina

I think we'd all be more compassionate, more aware of our limitations (and better people in general, knowing and accepting that some failures are unavoidable, even if it's a depressing statement) if we all interacted with art like this more. What I wish for all of us. I should be working right now, but instead I'm sitting, listening, reading and analyzing. Again: it's cathartic.

Val

Thank you for sharing them ❤️ Misericorde (I + II) are probably my favourites lyrically, though it's hard to choose... Suspyre might be the one I prefer music-wise, but there's also Graal, and Equus, and Anhedonia, and Misericorde.... Each one is amazing in its own way, and same for the lyrics. Thank you so much for creating such beautiful, meaningful art ❤️

Jess Brown

Misericorde II is an eargasm

Hilal Diker

“My decaying portrait Foreseen, my limned last days” This entire album has been so comforting, I don’t know how you do this but it’s so raw and pure. I have a lot of questions about this album in general, can’t wait! I’m so thankful to be alive in a world where this band exists in our lifetime! ❤️🤘

TheStalk

Is it ok to share these now that the album is out?

Eva

I feel the same Hilal 🖤
