lyrics

Purveyor of all disease
Bless us with impurity
Drenched in noxious consecration
Bathe us in your glorious poison

Sinking in our teeth
Infecting those still sane
Beneath the bodies piling
Solemn misery remains

Bow before the everlasting
Since time began
Consuming everything
Spreading all across lands
Invading every mind
His deep slumber
Giving way to genocide

Despair in me, cosmos, take me

Kneel before the never passing
Infinite wisdom
Surpassing everything
Our chance to grasp it
Keep failing time and time
Beseeching anguish
Our way of peace of mind

Give into these throes of madness
Embracing true perdition
Buried beneath a shallow facade
Tainted self soon crumbling and cast aside

Its arrival
Deep-seated in us all
Nothing kept us
From our fall

Purveyor of all disease
Bless us with impurity
Drenched in noxious consecration
Bathe us in your glorious poison

We are not worthy of your radiance
Dimmed in apperance, bare of all light
We beg forgiveness, for the void
Take us in, make us whole

Despair in me, cosmos, take me

If you told me that Dischordia shared members with Dysrhythmia I'd believe it without checking. Angular, dissonant constructions that give no fucks about human enjoyment. I need more. Ghuughra
