The situation is dire
Our species awaits the fire
Their only hope
Is resting upon the shoulders
Of wealthy men with lust for gold
And hearts of coal
The end’s upon us
Consume all we create
We’ll be the ruin of our species
We’ll be heralded destroyer
Rain acid down upon us
Humanity’s doom has come
Our cities will fall
Our forests will burn
As the oceans rise we’ll be no more

Force feeding the masses a platter of lies
Truth an obstacle better left behind
Bereft of empathy it's impact ascends
And soon to hell we will descend
Footage of war and greed light up the gloom
Fills every corner of your tiny room
This madness reaches dizzying heights
Your way of life will be raped this night
Dark figures dance across the tv screen
Naive minds warped through vacant eyes that gleam
A new pandemic, new fix, worming it's way into our everyday lives
Corrupting all with this cycle of violence and bile
Children are left to fend for themselves
To swallow all that this virus sells
A world of maniacs we will create
Only ourselves to blame for reaching this state
The men in charge all know the score
Devoid of feeling they don't care anymore
Selling genocide with a catchy tune
We'll all be their slaves soon
We must fight for our children's lives
Consumed by the avarice of the first world
Their fates are almost sealed
Content to let their minds decay and none will stand in their way
Down into the depths we fall
Closed minded, bigoted, flawed
We scream, cry, we wonder why
All our liberties have now truly died
We must fight for our children's lives
Consumed by the avarice of the first world
Their fates are almost sealed
Content to let their minds decay and none will stand in their way
Devolution of our species in a rapid increase
Vapid husks now condemned to rot in a silicone tomb
We were titans, we were warriors
Steadfast against the media cancer
Asinine code breeds simplicity
Herd mentality
A new pandemic, new fix, worming it's way into our everyday lives
Corrupting all with this cycle of violence

Swansong of a lost generation
An ancient caution call
Forget and waste what was given
The sky will fall
A world drowning in pleasures
Forsaking knowledge for fame
Loses mind, loses vision
The stars will rain down
Set the sky ablaze
A world in flames
Lust for power has lay them adrift flying blind
A divided mind can never dream to take the skies
With their heads in the sand say goodbye
As one they bleed
No man’s a king before the flood
Encrypted voices are calling through time but they
Fall short of the ignorant eyes that lay
Shaping thoughts and repeating the lies that they
Learnt to live and never question why
Brace for impact
They had their chance only themselves to blame
Extinction calls
Decimation
The funeral fire of man, a cosmic atrophy
Not a trace will remain
Desolation
Only themselves to blame
Still reluctant to listen
Naive cowards till death
Proudly marching to their end
Brace for impact
Only themselves to blame

Nothing Will Pacify

Disconnected
Alone in the dark
Deflated
An empty shell of a man
Defeated
I hang my head in shame
Worthless
How did it come to this
My psyche left in tatters
Fortune favours the brave
In a deadlock
With only one way out
I tear my finger nails through my skin,
Just so I can feel something
Or anything
The bruises fade and the scars heal
The pain lingers on
Nothing Will Pacify
Am I really playing a card,
Or am I a victim
Pessimist or realist
It’s all the same to me now
Am I a victim
Pessimist or realist
All hope is lost
No light will shine on me
Misdeeds of years gone by
Forever stain these walls
The moon and stars
All laugh at me
While I sit alone
Ready to die
The only place
Where the grass is green
Where I am free
Is behind this noose
Nothing will pacify

We take the blame for our blindness
But we can't tell the difference
We’ve lost all ties to our guide
Great mother Gaia
How can we find our way
Without the key to the portal
When will we realise
We've got it all wrong
So what's the point
Like a virus were fighting for
Our place in line
But forgetting the host
We are all one
So why do fight these healing tides
Suppressed by
The great cultural lie
Last night i had a vision
Of a higher plain of existence
That lives inside
The human mind
Step by step
We must evolve
Rewrite the code
Before it implodes
A planetary awakening
Sacred smoke fill my lungs
Course through my blood
The buried chant of the ancients
A cosmic tremor, spits forth the truth
Just open your eyes, enough with the fucking lies
It's time to take back the earth, for humanity's rebirth
Enter the trance state
Rip me apart

My whole life
I’ve been sure of who I am
But now
It’s been torn away from me
Looking up ahead grinning inanely
What has she got to be so happy about
She’s in the same fucking boat as me
Break her down and make her see
The madness it seethes
Festers and breeds
The anger is boiling inside of me
My mind is screaming and reeling within
Fists against the wall for the thrall
The pain doesn’t make any difference at all
Dark choices lie ahead
No matter where I wander I’m soon to be dead
Looking ahead grinning inanely
Why’s she so fucking happy
She’s in the same fucking boat as me
Break her down and make her see
[My existence has been a lie
I’m blinded by tears as I look to the sky
The stage is set
The outcome certain
I’m prepared for my final curtain
I’m falling apart at the seams
From the weight of my broken dreams
Ripped apart at the seams
From the weight of my broken dreams
No need to be shy
There’s no need to cry
This is the time you die
Fists against the wall for the thrall
The pain doesn’t make any difference at all
Dark choices lie ahead
No matter where I wander I’m soon to be dead
Crimson on the wall for the thrall
I don’t feel a thing anymore
No more choices
No more pain
Glorious day
I now lie dead

Silent King
by The Absolution Sequence
supported by 4 fans who also own “Planetary Awakening”
This is the type of heavy that does not rely on chugguh chug. This thing has riffs and variations. You won't feel that you're listening to one giant song. One track differs from the other. An outstanding release.

An excellent album from beginning to end. It grabs you and doesn't let you go. Relentless drumming, virtuosic guitars, strong vocals, intelligent lyrics and a very tight sound. The atmosphere this album sets is amazingly dark and disturbing. One of my top 5 favorite metal albums of all time. Highly recommended. This band absolutely deserves more recognition. I hope to hear more from them in the future. Exceptionally well done!
