In the twilight of scorn and disdain I’m brought before you again A wretched corporeal form Covered in runes and bearing a demon’s horn Formless and void, unfathomable terror Taking it’s form This madness drove me to the place Whence I shan’t even know thy name As hallowed in darkened shrines disgraced Atone for all I’ve done this day If today should be my last Know that I am forever cast Into the fires that burn beneath The roots of righteous trees Suffer their judgement no more In the reflection of the fire I am begrudged my sins once more To stand held for what’s is born If today should be my last Let me offer up my voice For in sins of my past I wasn’t given much choice As their eyes cast judgement on this mortal shell Know I burn with great torments, none withheld Such awful sights to show you, should you believe Only when one is nothing can they be set free If today should be my last Let me offer up my flesh For the sins of my past This end I meet, is for the best So let today be my last As I cry aloud my voice I wasn’t meant to be at rest The darkness beckons me home

The emptiness of the void Is afforded to those who stand poised To affirm their hatred for this curse of mankind The restlessness of eternity divine Hate for the sake of doctrines perverse Amnesty spelled out by its lies Living slaves drawn in by each fucking verse In godless splendor I shall die So full of life yet devoid of hope It’s the feeling that I crave the most Any feeling that you think you can cope Is dangling from the end of this rope The call of the void is strongest at night Difficult to avoid, standing hypnotized Like a deer caught in the headlights A drive off these cliffs seems just fine Above the sky seems a dreary grey Reminding you of how I look today Eyes white with signs of decay You look on me and then you look away You look away So full of life yet devoid of hope It’s the feeling that I crave the most Any feeling that you think you can cope Is dangling from the end of this rope It’s only in the absence of light We can truly hear this call sublime A beckoning from the darkness inside When finally it comes What will you decide? The embrace of the void, warm and refined I can’t avoid, beckoning in time Whatever may come, as yet defined Sure to uphold this penance in mind It’s only in the absence of light We can truly hear the call sublime, A beckoning from the darkness inside, When it finally comes What will you decide It’s only in the absence of light We can truly hear the call sublime, A beckoning from the darkness inside, When it finally comes What will you decide?

If today should be my last Let me offer up my voice For in sins of my past I wasn’t given much choice Sammael I stand before thee With your scythe at my neck Begging to be released As the fluid gurgles in my throat I know that I’ve been undone These final gasps of mine Are relished thoughts of the end of time Father of all I sit and dine with thee With wolves and with ravens I share this feast The hunt for what cannot satiate Will forever more ingratiate This wretched, sour, distaste Of iron spilling blood upon my plate Mother of the undead I sit with thee Awaiting poisoned drink A fitting end for this creature, me I’ve come this far Don’t deny me this I’ve gone through hell To make the acquaintance of death I’ve suffered so To meet my final rest I’ve given everything To make the acquaintance of death By mine own hand Or my adversary Close to the end This darkness beckons me And so I speak this now With my final breath I can be at rest And make the acquaintance of death

And from the skies you will see A great unkindness And it will swarm down upon you and your house And it will pluck your eyes from your skulls And it will rend your bones from your flesh All of these things you must endure This creature that we are Smells of death and the process of dying How we’ve come so far is bereft Of our understanding Reborn as animals That live to fuck and to feed Just how we fallen so far The greatest mystery Just as the ones who came before Seeking our selfish needs But as the story goes We can’t see forest for the trees And with every syllable spoke And with each masterful stroke These creatures awoke From their hallowed sleep ‘Neath dirt and leaves Forlorn in the forest breeze Rebirth of the body is not for the soul For the gaping chasm that’s left takes a toll Driven by instinct to fuck and to feed Tormented by unquenchable need

Born Again 06:17
Baptized in the flames of perdition I stake my claim to the throne of the earth Let their feeble gods fall at my feet And bear witness to this venomous rebirth Failure to lift the sword The true vision of defeat What lies beneath my feet Are the broken bones of what you believe Peeling the flesh from myself Shedding this mortal skin Dawning a hellish rebirth I have been born again God is dead Crushed bones beneath my feet Born again I am I AM, hear me speak Mortem Deus Vindicta The godheads of bygone beliefs adorn my wall Severed at the neck A message all For if it can bleed Then it’s no god at all Mortem Deus Vindicta, a message to all For if it can bleed then it’s no god at all Peeling the flesh from myself Shedding this mortal skin Dawning a hellish rebirth I have been born again Born again Through the beauty of bloodshed I drive a spear Through the heart of your god A wretched corpse Falls lifeless at my feet Shattering the liar’s crown of deceit Cast your gaze To the fires beneath For no heaven awaits When you cease to breath The death of gods and of masters At the hands of the meek When drenched with their blood Born again you shall be God is dead Crushed bones beneath my feet Born again I am I AM, hear me speak God is dead Trampled doctrines under me Born again I am I AM, hear me speak

If this fate that befalls me seems unpleasant Know that my own hand did not regret My cautious soul composes this resonant farewell You have not understood And never bothered to see why Smile, you have achieved what others could not If only for fleeting glimpses of happiness despaired I have a voracious taste for what’s to come Death, in it’s sweet silence Embraces me where you have not You can cry now for what feels like loss But where were your tears before I was gone? Where was your heart while mine was just a pawn? And while my hand strokes aside this quill I am soon gone. For if today were to be my last Let this message ring true I take my life into my own hands The answer was always you Cold darkness enchants my eyesight And I stop breathing The smile I keep I just hope remains posthumous. You’ve looked at this cry for help and mocked it’s presence You’ve ignored countless signs And here we are, the end of it all So while this fluid fills my lungs And I’m looking at what I’ve done I’ll be gone soon And you will forget where this is from

Purge Ov I 07:14
There’s something learned In this journey of self, I endure There’s something hidden in reflections Staring back at me, I am sure Pervasive darkness creeps behind the wall of sleep Evermore Now I erase myself In a purge of I Displace myself As a memory lost in time But I can’t cure myself From this agony What lies before you now This shell without me In a purge of I And I can cleanse myself In a purge of I As I remove the layers of this cell Removing skin that’s imprisoned me in hell Peeling away The burdens of the day One, by one, by one, this shell falls away I will suffer no more This delusion A fantasy and nothing more And as my light fades away I purge myself again Cutting, removing, and peeling and shedding the pieces of me that I can’t stand Tearing away at the misshapen shell that composes my disgusting self again No distance can come between you and yourself Unless the body dies So then to remove one’s self Only a purge of I Peeling away The burdens of the day One, by one, by one, this shell falls away When all that’s left is bone And the body has died Your soul can finally roam In this purge of I Cutting, removing, and peeling and shedding the pieces of me that I can’t stand Tearing away at the misshapen shell that composes my disgusting self again I will suffer no more This delusion A fantasy and nothing more And as my light fades away I purge myself again I erase myself in a purge of I…

You have returned to the torture-chambers To find peace among the rotting corpses You have returned to the execution place To inhale the smell of blood Death and terror rules the land We have been spellbound By the Devil You have returned to the hidden graves Only you know about You have returned to to face your victims And feel Sensation Of violence Again We are spellbound by the devil Death and terror rules the soul You have been spellbound by the Devil Murderer, you have returned To create fear and sorrow Death and terror rules the land We have been spellbound By the Devil

Nordic Frost Modesto, California

Nordic Frost was originally formed in the insipid yet malevolent thoughts of it's creator in the fall of 2006. Though passed over until now, the inner demons that inspire the project have yet to cease their beckoning and have recently been given the outlet needed to spew their antagonizing wrath upon your feeble kind. ... more
