Intro: The Mesh

The world is not a family
of species joining hands
It's a dark mysterious mesh
of shining shapeless forms
Immersed in each other
withdrawn from ourselves
A stream we all enter
and we all leave
A stream we never enter
and we never leave
Embrace the new dark age
Welcome to the Anthropocene

The age of humanity
In catastrophe, the ecstasy
We rise above all division
In the glory of extinction
Iä! Iä!
We paint the earth black
To make an altar for you
There is no turning back
No world that was pure
Iä! Iä!
What was blue, has turned green
What was green, has turned black
What was black, always comes back
And it haunts us from within
The stars will be right
When the black stains all light
Iä! Iä!

This planet is haunted, by its own dream
It is waking up, to its dying scream
The soul of the earth, waits under the sea
Dead from its birth, life is his dream
The ocean dreams of the ground
The earth dreams of the sea
The stars have all drowned
The Four Billion Year Dream
Our lives rounded with sleep
We are swirls in a stream
He is the source, he is the deep
The Four Billion Year Dream
Above us and below us, black seas of infinity
He dreams all of us, he calls for you and me
Fierce the pale star burns, deep beneath the waves
Slow the planet turns, light shines from the graves
Sleeper, awakes

I stare at the sea
The waves are all I see
A mask for what's beneath
Something waits in the deep
A shadow of a mountain
Something moves beneath the waves
My eyes cannot see
The enormity of the deep
I feel the vertigo
The abyss before me
The deep moves in the black
It cannot be it shouldn't be
Too vast to understand
Something moves beneath the waves
I drown...
I am inside, the deep
I cannot see, it surrounds me
The thing, the horror
All around me, and inside me
It is in me, it cannot be
I cannot see, the waves
Everything, only waves
I am, only waves
And the thing, that awaits
Beneath, the waves
I cannot see, the sea
But the sea, sees me
The sea, it lives
The deep, it breathes
Too much, no more
I drown, no words
Space dislocating
Time overflowing
Dimension phasing
All-encompassing

The world has ended, and we have been blind
We did not see the dream, that was always more than real
The world was never true, only a cycle, only time
There was never no one there, just mirrors in the dark
Now we hunt for ourselves, in the ashes of our world
Ghosts of the extinct, howling at mirrors
We are a nothing and we know it, and there is nothing as beautiful
All these tears are washed away, by memories of carbon ghosts
Only mirrors within mirrors, pale ghosts of infinity
The scream of a mind, as it sees its eternity
I can taste it, I can feel it, invisible, on my skin
And we are skin to skin, with every single thing
We begin only to end, we end only to begin
We merge and intertwine, we are base, we are divine
There is only a spectre, of what we thought was real
We are haunted, we are homeless, we are fearless, we are free
Come and warm your hands, by the burning fossil fire
Then we take the last ride, to the poison light on the other side
There is no beyond!
No! Beyond!

Abhorrence Helsinki, Finland
We are a Finnish old school death metal band, originally active from 1989 to 1990. We reactivated in 2013 for few reunion gigs, following the release of "Completely Vulgar" compilation album released by Svart Records. In 2017 Svart Records released "Totally Vulgar - Live at Tuska Open Air 2013" live album and we celebrated this with a minitour. Future is murky and uncertain. ... more
