This lingering pain, why can't I just let it away Lingering wretchedly, bound by my misery Suffer the way of the oceans, time decays Entranced by lies you speak Ghost of the fathomless sea Plagued by lies you brought upon yourself Widening storms play shapes against the waves... An open door, now I am not myself anymore Deceived by ones I trust no more My soul destroyed under this weight Herein lies the abyss, the key... This blackness swallowing me whole This cryptic moon the only light now shining on me... How can I free myself...
2.
Served by these flowing waters I lead you down to.... Cryptically encoded by the moon Now I'm brought aside by you.... Linked by these flowing waters I lead you down to this.... Maze of distrust Memories of lies entwined with pain When all we can feel is disdain Blinded by words said in vain Licking at the cuts & wounds caused by lust Tempered by an ancient shroud now turned to dust Tell me... where can I run? Hidden & linked by your sins Tell me... where can I run? I can't hide from these lies
3.
You... I... You stand immoral for all to see, Yet deny your way Your call is an echo, We drown away in the night We fall, from you.... Thorns binding, your flesh so cold Resolve me Diamond stars, the night so dark, so suffocating How can I escape from this multitude of sin Do not leave me here for I'm awash with sin How can you leave me this way? I'll let my curse begin Serpent's tongue drown the sound of his lies Make believe you lead a good life Make a sound, make a mark for his life Unleash upon him your venomous bite.... Scorpions sting with the beat of the night Let it scold, let it burn like the light Lead him down to the slaughter tonight .... Unleash upon him your venomous bite

You….. Leading me down to this path so true, at least it is to you A torturous descent into Insidious voices they call to me now, lying in wait Nowhere to run, I can’t escape and yet it seems that lower and lower i’m sinking into this sodden ground How could I ever have been so sure? When even your lies are forgotten I see these circling storms, a plague abandoning me Your ruination lies in wait, this clamor a silence beneath Raining putrid and hateful Your lies so deceitful, I can't erase it from my mind You….. Leading me down to this path so true, at least it is to you A torturous descent into Insidious voices they call to me now, lying in wait Nowhere to run, I can’t escape

Amid the dark, distant echoes call Whispering to me of things rarely spoke of or saw Blissfully the dark, my terror I'll never part Speak to me bittersweet things For in the ocean I'll fall...

Labyrinth 05:24
Darkness descends upon this heart of mine spiralling temptations entwined with lies hold me back, for I cannot see what this has become.. Clandestine sands shift away, Chthonic shadows of a land forlorn a land where the cataclysm of life had yet begun... The light of a thousand suns has fallen on this our labyrinth of the morning star frosty storms, bring the silence near death awaits all those in fear... Abandon all previous beliefs and bow before a humble throne But your reverence is worthless in this place as our temple feeds on affliction The light of a thousand suns has fallen on this our labyrinth of the morning star frosty storms, bring the silence near death awaits all those in fear... The light of a thousand suns has fallen on this our labyrinth of the morning star
7.
My distant memories of countless ages unbidden I wage against a war unwritten Now I can finally see the fractures in the walls of Eden, Branching from the tree of the Fallen Ones... The acidulous bread of salvation, The terror behind your eyes O I the envoy, implore the totality of Hell.... What is left? When Death - on coriaceous wings - strangles innocence What afflictions come to pass when demise begins. Or Is it the thought of something else... that leads us to the darkness within ourselves...
8.
The quietness of my despair Does not leave you free To compare me to those without suffering How can you be so cold and your lies so bold You never question yourself or the people you hurt And I feel you there... And I feel you near... And you savage me... Your lies dissolve on me Killing me leaving me a shell all alone The Gods shall hear my cries The lies you say - your last good byes... And I feel you there... And I feel you near... And you savage me... Your lies dissolve on me Killing me leaving me a shell all alone Can't you see these secrets aren't tied? I will never ever hide from yo A love you say will never die Well I shall reveal them unto the sky.
9.
Torn & suffering, All nature's unwavering fear of Him Evocation without pain is what I crave, deliver me from this infernal cage. Useless am I the unguided one Tortured souls unite as one, deliver to me the Revelation... Fear not what the world has become but speak not now, for our will be done... Torn & suffering, Nature has control of Him Our bodies absolved of Him... Trust not in His lies... Torn trancelike denial read between these lines a thousand words I've denied..... The oceans overcome with greed... A burning light is now conceived... The fear unwritten is the sum, that will finally eclipse the sun.. Torn trancelike denial read between these lines a thousand words I've denied..... Unwritten, I am not to be heard But if you listen now, you can hear my curse... Our revelation the storm unseen shall come Tortured souls unite as one, deliver to me the Revelation... Fear not what the world has become But speak not now, for our will be done...

about

Enigmatic blackened doom metal cult SWORDS OF DIS have summoned forth their debut album 'Tides Of Malediction’ it is as beautiful as it is wretched. An epic piece of ritualistic metal - 9 hymns of atmospheric, unnerving, progressive mysticism always hovering on the verge of collapse before leading into the cataclysm.

Slithering, fierce, tribal percussion, idiosyncratic dissonant guitars, spellbinding dark spiritual textures instil dread and vocal paroxysms professing dire warnings of a dark prophecy invoked in intelligently rendered, layered psalms of jarring counterpoint that invoke visions of pandemonium and discomfort.

The vacuous seeking frivolity will find themselves confused and disorientated and will likely stray from the path, but for the devout who believe that music should be a voice of provocation, intrepid and challenging – those people will find a hoard of knowledge lurking beneath the scarred and brutalised surface of the album.

“Slipping into a world devoid of light, where lions perch on ancient carved monoliths, arrive at the ophidian gates that lead to the tides of malediction and the melancholic, clandestine, accursed lands of the unforgiven where the blackened souls of the lost wander forever tortured by their transgressions.”
