In death, are we blessed?
If living I am possessed
Wrapped around my spinal cord
This living I can't afford

Hearken to the cacophony
Watch this ship sinking into the sea
Driven by a wish to OD
Have I ever been scarce on demonology?

Skeletal host
Maggots crawling out the walls
Blue corpses offer their last gifts to me
As they smile tenderly

Many many people ought to live in fear
Many many people were bereft of their souls when they've been here

So I sold them to the salesman down the road  
Yes I sold them souls to this salesman way down the road

Evil, evil faces displayed on paper walls
Dragonsnake, it chases the luminous brain until it falls

Into the chasm where scavengers ate the goat
The cosmic fire it burns, still I took an oath
Tremendous terror were cast upon the men
This bus will be driving on till I meet my end

Skeletal host
Maggots crawling out the walls
Blue corpses offer their last gifts to me
As they smile tenderly

As they smile tenderly

Klepp - Sot

Corner of the room, that's where I'll stay
Ego entombed, come look and you'll pay
Blackdoor implies I'm killing for fervour
You'll fall through the eyes of the devil's observer

Still I can see you through the laughter
Burn down your fort, conquer it after
The sky has turned red

Don't look too closely, you may see me
I won't respond to your enmity
Until I'm frozen in primeval retaliation
Already chosen and contrived your cremation

Now, spit your curses at the stone wall
Don't mind the devil eating your soul
Observing the dead

I cannot let you leave
No, you lie, you deceive
And yeah, I know you would tell them

You should not confront thieves
As your body heaves
And the scythe is my emblem

Now you suddenly beg
I could keep your leg
In sheer elation

Choke you with your own
Appendix, you won't moan
In silent suffocation

Klepp - Devil's Observer

It disappears this feeling
And all alone I disappear
In sanity, no healing
Life, a sound I cannot hear

Every single apple kept my eyes sewn shut
A gathering of stillborn serpents in my gut

My mind don’t need delusions
Hours fly while I’m still here
A sinful smile’s intrusion
In agony I disappear

All the reasons you cannot seem to afford
Desert sand buries your soul when you're so bored
So take a good look at your own filthy tie
Independent thinking, you would rather die

Living in my mind but I don’t quite know where I am
Hail this artificial creature as I give command

I hide my eyes so I don’t have to ask for more
But soon my aspect changes, leaping through the weeping crystal floor

Back again to celebrate euphoria this dream
Desperate thoughts may haunt you down, at least that’s how it seems

Objects and icons they all warned me I should fear
But sense of logic crawls away into its shell, please disappear

It’s alright 
Free me
But I can’t do it all alone
So guide me, guide me home

Klepp - Objects and Icons

Precious joy that you bring
Smoke across the welkin
House on fire, melting
Burning down, darlin'

And I can't ever seem to look away
The circling of the flames, belonging in frames
Oh god, you better pray

The boards are cryin' just as they convey
No matter where they can leap, it's futile to keep
The licking tongues at bay

Hello? All is well
Mellow warmth in hell

Wailing, strong holy blaze
Eats the wood in the night
Puts that smile on my face
All shall burn, canaanite

And I don't care if you're locked inside
The crayons I have used, left my mind bruised
Be certain my grin is wide

In you my darlin' I trust and confide
I know you won't let me go, your spirit will grow
Inside my soul, my bride

Hello? All is well
Mellow warmth in hell

The people gather whispering, pale with disbelief
Condemn the arsonist, that vile sadist harvesting grief
She kept on burnin' every nearby leaf
'till water laid her to rest, her life was hot and brief

Her life was hot and brief
Won't you return

Hello? Please return
Come back and burn

Klepp - Pyromid

I stare through to the hole of the rabbit
Morphing minds is the core of the habit

Settle down, watching rose run from fire
Intervene, there for me to inspire

So entertain your death to be sure
Oh ascend, transcend to the blur

Won't you go to the end of the world
So you can find
A strange door on which roses are curled
Oh, what's behind
It won't open for me, now
I say please, unchain my mind

Suddenly nothing to gain, nothing to offer
Fix my view so that I may no longer suffer

So entertain your death, once again
Oh ascend, transcend to the end
To the end



Klepp - Entertain Your Death

Ashes and coal
In every ancient scroll
Flashes of control 
Brought by this calf of gold

I am not my brother's keeper
I'm a stranger, lord
Cast out of the sky
Way down, I kept digging deeper
But we didn't cry
Cry, cry, cry, no cries

Say your prayers and lay them on me
It's your belief that strangles me
Save your sorrow, you're already pale
Please honor me by watching me fail
Again and never again

So I built a land of my own
Not with flesh and bone
Nor with guilt, no no
Guilt I have outgrown
And you won't find it, road's too curled
Hey, it's the distance of the otherworld

I am not my brother's keeper
I'm a stranger, lord
Cast out of the sky
Way down, I kept digging deeper
But we didn't, lord
Cry, cry, cry, oh no cries

In my mind, the comrades are few
I saw beyond and started anew
Pillars towering, these tongues have been cursed
Les we forget the worm was first
To offer a bite, perhaps the worm was right

The sculptor turned himself to stone, but he did retrieve
The safest place that he had ever known, albeit naive
Faith made it easier to live, I believe
A critic's view is all that I can give, and thus perceive

Mirrors of our own creators, but still
In order to grow we must distil
Hereditary, the pieces that form
This doesn't mean that we can't transform

Klepp - Mirrors of our own Creators

Grief of the earth is here
And all we could see could not be saved
The grief of the earth is here
And all we could see could not be saved
 
He who walks the earth brought fire
Burning gaia alive
Heretic, blasphemer, liar
Planet struggling to survive
 
Cities wiped out, screeching sounds
Fiery stones rain down all around
The grief of the earth is here
And godlike is this wrathful sphere
 
He who walked the earth brought fire
They burned gaia alive
Heretic, deceiver, liar
Planet killing to survive
 
The other realm, the land was swallowed by the ocean without further notice
Civilization has expired, it's the prophesied metamorphosis
Unchained from shackles of the hourglass, though winds of time will put out the conflagrations
Volcanic birth, proclaiming; grief of the earth will bring peace to the nations
 
As ashes paint the land
We are smited by the sculptors hand
These hearts of dust and sand
Sealed and buried be the era of man

Klepp - Grief of the Earth

Little eye, staring at the atmosphere
The scene behind the scene
Stone cold I, changing my realities
The dream within the dream
 
When moss is raging
Eradicated smoke
Disengaging
Under the fallen oak
 
Crimson sky, paint it won't you run no more
Ashes, dust and bone
Take me from, gentle to insanity
Advantages you own
 
When moss is raging
Eradicated smoke
Disengaging
Under the fallen oak

Klepp - Under the Fallen Oak

Woke up blind, one mornin'
Did not heed the warning
Went downstairs, and found
Reality unbound
 
Now the forest gnomes are attacking
Wrecked my livin' room with the kraken
So you reap just what you sow
No one really needs to know
 
Left my house, I ran
Fishes walked the land
Sun rised up too bright
Blind again, allright
 
Now the forest gnomes, they are runnin'
Chasing me, the kraken is humming
But I can't ignore the facts
We might never be coming back
 
Ran like hell, could find no shelter in this strange game
Close behind on so short feet, you know that they screamed my name
Stumbled on a twisted root and fell so long down in a hole
But as I fell I realized I've lost all control

Klepp - Gnomes

The mixing is a bit iffy, but we had to stick with this or re-record the whole shit, and that just seemed like a whole lot of work. Anyway, hope you enjoy it.


Lyrics:

Angel with no face
She's got no eyes to see
You know she told me;
"To live is to believe"

Now fettered by the leaves
The demon in the tree
Staring down, down at me
Lord, it's staring at me

I'll meet you at the crossroads
A letter signed in blood
The reason of our being
Cannot be understood

Too persistent was my ego
Far too frantic for its cause
I could not see the image there at all

Unus mundus

Mindborn, transmogrification
Void of silence, filled with light
There is no hand, just scripture on the wall

Unus mundus

Imaginary elk
Which bubble to embrace
Arcane in every sense
A nucleus of space
All right, now believe child

I'll meet you at the crossroads
A letter signed in blood
The reason of our being
Cannot be understood

Klepp - Eidolon

Isolated musicians' wish for innovative pentatonic rock.
