Lyrics — Nosk of the Void

1. Rest Eternal

Reborn on the bench
Soulful in repose
Charmed offense
To our deaths we go

The distress one feels
Ignites the fire within
Evoke precision required
The time has come to win

In this nest of beauty
I suffer so you can be strong

In this nest of beauty
I am your voice with which to cry

In this nest of beauty
We will echo forever, you and I

I am the knight
I am forever
I have always been here

Truth comes from revolution
Day and night must dance
Our home lies below
Woven in endless expanse

Fore new pathways unfurl
With each challenge met
Let this be your end
Find a place to rest
-

2. Born Of Spiders

I came for battle
Unprepared at best
Void filled with desire
Mettle put to the test

At your first glimpse
Curiosity rose
With beatings dealt
Self doubt grows

You in the paths of green
You with needle and thread
You at the edge of it all

You broke me in
Break me, Break me in

Born of spiders
What secrets you hide
Protector forged as
Beast and king collide

Your gift bestowed
Defeat at my hands
Belief in the self demands
That I make this stand

You in the paths of green
You say I’m a ghost
You at the edge of it all

You broke me in
Break me, break me in
To the mind of the knight

Through your eye, I’ve grown
Power unleashed, before unknown

When next we meet
Winds howl and blow
Final test easily beat
The rest is mine to sew
-

3. Tell Me / Old Timer

Tell me, old timer
Of the ones who lost their minds
In these caverns below

Was it dreams of wealth
Or dreams of dreams
That cost them everything?
Tell me, am I like them?

Am I lost in the maze too?
Tell me, old timer
Are you afraid
Of what lies below

You worry I know
You dream I know
Will we ever be whole?
Tell me, am I lost as well?
-

4. Glory Within

Within the night you restrained
The sun glows bright
With burgeoning wings
It takes flight

Moth and flame
In one, untamed
Could I remain
Remain unchained?

I will follow it's light
I will follow the fight
I will, my will
I am the knight

What glory to behold
Save the pain, That is sure to follow
Sharpened streaks of silver
Reign in rows and bands

Imposition in awe
I awake, I recall
I am the reason
The reason to end it all
-

5. Grub Hunter

I hear you cry
Where are you?
Behind this wall
Must find a way through

Worry not little friend
With this glass I break
Cry no more
Freedom is yours to take

Grub hunter
I am your friend
Grub hunter
Your father pays me well

Where are my friends?
You have eaten them all
You have used me
A father’s dark deed

I miss their cries.
What's that I hear?
I can not destroy you
I hear them inside you

I hear you cry
Where are you?
Inside his guts
Can’t find a way through

Night falls, little friends
I've failed you all
Your cries echo inside
This cursed hollow shell

Grub hunter
I was your friend
Grub hunter
Your Father, he paid me well!

Grub hunter
I am your doom
Grub hunter
Never to be free

6. Hunger Eternal

In the labyrinth below
The maze above
One sees one’s self
One’s face

Follow your heart
Know your fate
Follow your heart
It is not you

A beckon to feast
A vessel impure
Hunger Eternal
Hug the wall

Hiding, crawling
Hiding, screaming
Husks hang, all lost
Tortured echoes

Follow Your Heart
A trap is set
Follow your heart
A ploy, a lie

A twisted form
A shell inverted
Hunger eternal
Hug the wall

White ore, your prize
Cravings sated

One finds one’s self
In the labyrinth below
The maze above

Follow your heart
Know your fate
Follow your heart
It is not you
-

7. Blades of Pain

Strike the shell
Enter the palace that fell
Remember the dream
Ov the pale king

Sycophants bow
Strike them all down
Blades of pain
Punishment in vain

Palace so clean
Palace pristine
Palace of hell
Palace of dreams

The blood of the hive
Can keep you alive
No soul to collect
Just patience and rest

The king on his throne
Pale as bone
Collapse to the floor
Enter no more
