Cut away at my lifeless corpse Take all you want I feel no pain I yearn to give to be your slave I will sacrifice for you Tear at me with hooks and hands Take all you want this flesh a stain Destroy the flesh, engulf the soul Take all you need, take what makes you whole Remove all I have erase all I am out and see See what I've gained Strip me down 'til there's nothing left Sate your hunger for my blood I am the offering Take my strength, my mind, my heart All of my sacrifice will soon return in spades I'll take back more than what you stole Beware the virtue in give and take And the pain that you feel won't be in vain But your greed has made you blind And in the darkness you will find The light of another poisoned soul Breathe new life to this writhing corpse Your repentance is in vain Fulfill the void that emptied me I've sacrificed for you immortal husk You lay stand forth this body lies in your wake I'm more than once I was a lamb of ritual sacrifice Ascend the alter Change our course to turn back time

Corridors 04:00
This dark house you wander in With corridors where the light is dim All rooms hold tales of old Moments where your soul was sold She calls me in corridors She screams out in corridors She hides forever in corridors All lost now in corridors Open the door to a time now past A world you forgot an existence untold So much now returns to awaken the dark It reaches your mind and straight through Your heart thoughts held back and words Long forgotten yet now lays this regret Painted before you These walls feel old and harsh to the touch But memories within draw warmth From you remembering innocence this place once held But all's gone in corridors of old Walls awash with red rage and hate The acrid smell of death you can almost taste Sends you spiraling to madness that's crazed and deranged You'll end your life in this place that's her grave

The face in the mirror, it stares at me with disdain Disdain and pure hate, an image I no longer know A memory that just won't go away Weakness is all that I see A child with little understanding I am reborn today, I hate what I've become Detest the name that I've known Let me kill you and start again Let me go and never return Scream as I say your name run away Listen to me as I speak your name try and stay Scream as I say your name run away Listen to me as I speak your name try and stay A representation of a life now gone naive and confused I'm wiser now and know not to let them in I'm wise enough to turn my back and run away You cannot read the words that lay before your face You choose to read between the lines Lines that don't exist All the things you think you are But a farce of lies and deceit that you yourself To shield what lies beneath Why is honesty so hard to accept Why are the words held with such regret Why is this life so hard to forget I hate what I've become I detest the name that I've known Let me kill you and start again Let me go and never return

Contemplating denial as the queen lays defiled Forced hand choking life in the shadows of light Cobbled stone blood red thorns lead a path to betrayal Told to trust forced in faith the illusory veil This will always burn you to the soul eviscerate Dismember cremate disloyal distrust half truths Turn to lust create and deny In your elegant deceit Torn from the inside out if push came to shove If no wrong was held back disorder dissent the rapture The end, queen of stone sold your heart A lie of stone painted gold Torn from the inside out lies worth their weight in gold Torn from the inside out, tainted soul to behold Right under your nose Disloyalty abounds blissful ignorance naivety surrounds Subdue feelings within taking flight with the doubts Ignore traces of sin Indiscretion the fire indifferent to suspicion Extinguished with deceptions Spat forth from your liar Subdue feelings within Sleep on sheets of depravity Subdue feelings within Blind to all sin

Resillusion 04:13
Pray the villainous choices we make content with their mistake Taking refuge in debility refusing visions of prophecy Callous acts of the torturer the mind to blame snared by the ensnarer Look to find in the eye of the blind puzzled pieces as the picture unfolds Enticing misdirection fades the fog misguiding dissipates the unforseen The past unclean awaiting to start anew Painted black while the colours bleed The page lays blank for a tale's seed your resIllusion Forced absolution lost in the corridors of truth that you seek Stray from deception that holds us at bay Chains will fall as the binds break away To see the damage hidden from sight In a future we mold is our right To make to initiate to break down The walls built to bury within These confines traces of guilt And sin deceiver all comes Clear now absolver you are free noww Delve into obscurity Untold potential as the future Holds the key to self inflicted worth The body lays broken for this mind's rebirth The binds unchained and future arranged For you to rebuild and live forever in this dream

Degenerate 04:16
What's going on where the hell am I Voices visions swirl around my mind Where did they come from Where did they go How the hell am I to know Fuck this constant drive that keeps me going And chasing myself to feel alive What will I become, a monster a travesty Or will I become set free Where the fuck did I come from Where do I go and what have I done Who the hell am I to know Burn the mind insanity Cut the flesh depravity Become the demon tragedy That does not rest This burning feeling runs down my spine The blade is twitching I feel alive Do I want this so much now seriously Who the hell am I know Time to act on these urges to take what's mine To have I want to feel the coursing blood run down my arm But why Who the hell am I to know I see the pain it inflicts on me The pleasure comes as metal and flesh meet finally I come to this but why again Who the hell am I to know The transformation is now complete I brought the pain with me To be all questions answered I know for sure I am degenerate I am forever more

Sans Memoria 03:49
I scrape the past to find the traces of a blood severed line Behind a veil forged of steel Housing deceit never ending forever Owing inside truth held but never showing Gaze upon the river's glow What tears at me will never show Discorded chaos etched in me sand memory Draped in calamity born of tragedy Product of your insanity Placated turmoil repeating unset Destiny whatever comes whatever may sans memory the path I lay Discarded forgotten encapsulated times of old berated Begotten the contradiction you behold Time falls short for serenity as memories take hold of me A false beginning lays in wake lunacy in divinity Time awaits the refugee travel into obscurity Without a past defined this life a chance for meaning prosperity

The hypocrisy, of democracy, Pollution fills the air, They wage wars on sin, But no nation wins, Falsities hidden from sight, Time unifies, Can you here their lies? Deafening roar hear their scream, In petrol you will douse, Take the to the slaughter house, You've seen it all A thousand times. Marching endlessly, destination now defined, Existence, is your only question, Marching mindlessly, ask no questions, tell no lies, To the suffering, offer no repentance. At home in the motherland, with iron pen in hand, They sign for death a million times, Barricade the doors, they seek their silent wars, Revolution calls your name, can you see, infantry, Rolling up at your door, Make your stance, one last chance, To save the world from this destruction. Marching endlessly, destination now defined, Existence, is your only question, Marching mindlessly, ask no questions, tell no lies, To the suffering, offer no repentance. To the suffering, offer no repentance.

Fragments 03:49
Why have you forsaken me Am I really that bad where did this all go wrong The only person I could count on myself A lie my mind in pieces all I have are sleepless nights The thoughts that rule my mind Light glimpses through closed lids Spiraling to endless abyss Show me the light how to break free When the only thing that binds me is the fear in self belief Is it better to never try and never to feel Or to take your chances and live the dream Fragments slip from this reality now My own strength attacks me Saps me of my will I am lost forever in this vortex of sorrow This nightmare can't be real My guide where are you now For this journey I will not regret Give me the lift to climb these peaks Give me the push to cross these lakes This world unknown and curious A place for me to call my own A place where I am not alone
10.
Archways 04:46
Tunnels and archways beckon me Through these wormholes I journey to find my home Glimpses collide to create my memories Of the place that I belong And the faces that wait for me this war in me I've fought for eternity will soon be at an end With no remorse or guilt in tow I will return but draped in the knowledge that I now hone To reap the seeds I've sown to live this life I own I've been so far for far too long That I can only wonder If they will recognise this bruised and battered sacrifice The journey has been long but the reward that I deserve Is now within my reach and now my peace will come The lessons that I have learnt The brutal truths I found Will make me ruler of my fate And the future I've been shown This war has left me scarred This war has left me marred But time will heal all wounds Existence fought to be gained Controlled and now sustained All I did not trust assumes reality For all the loss I faced And now these tears run dry I've finally found my way through these archways of lies I've been so far for far too long That I can only wonder When I'll reach the end of these archways of lies The journey has been long but the reward I deserve Is to reach the end fo these archways of lies

“ORPHEUS OMEGA’s interpretation of Death Metal comes across in refreshing, aggressive and highly melodic manner. The group combines tradition and pinches of modern sounds in very demanding style and adds some experimental elements. 9/10″
– Nocturnal Hall

“When news was released that their sophomore full-length album ResIllusion would soon be released, expectations were already at a certain height. I’ll get this out of the way now, ResIllusion does not disappoint”.
– Metal Obsession

” A triumph over their previous album Bleed the Way which was already a remarkable debut by anyone’s standards. The entire album is an aural onslaught from start to finish”
– Heavy Mag
