Forms On the Other Side of Silence
Half of this was written by http://www.hyperblastmetal.com/ and I found them, and finished them. It's a shame Axis doesn't share the lyrics with us, but it is their choice and I respect that. They however have not given off that we shouldn't translate them to publish them so. :~ I will do it. A lot was done by HyperBlast, but I filled in a lot of his blanks, and incorrections... to the point where I'd say I did as much work as him. Also, for searching purposes, "Axis of Perdition Forms on the Other Side of Silence lyrics".
The blood of sunset had been replaced by the cool grey ashes of twilight
The deserted decaying shops had given way to deserted decaying warehouses
Her voice did not echo, but her footfalls seemed to
Overhead the sky was now purple
It might have been some distorting affect of the twilight
or her own exhaustion, but the warehouses seemed to lean hungrily over the road.
The windows caked with the dirt of decades,
For centuries perhaps, seemed to be staring at her
And the names on the signboards became progressively stranger
Even lunatic, at the very least unpronounceable
The vowels were in the wrong places
And consonants had been strung together,
In a way that would make it impossible for any human tongue to get around them
"Cthulhu Kryon," read one, "yogsoggoth," read another
"r'yeleh NYARLAHOTEP”
She was in the grip of a terrible, bone-rattling fear.
A fear so great she would not have believed a human being could endure it
without going mad or dropping dead.
It was impossible for her to articulate her fear except in one way
and even this, she said, only began to bridge the gulf which had opened within her mind and heart.
She said it was as if she were no longer on Earth, but on a different planet,
a place so alien that the human mind could not even begin to comprehend it.
The angles seemed different, she said. The colors seemed different.
The... but it was hopeless.
The stars were out, but they were not her stars,
these were crazed stars in lunatic constellations.
The street began to move again, the cobbles began to undulate like a carpet.
They rose and fell!
Rose and fell!
The tram tracks came loose and flew into oblivion.
Then the cobbles themselves came loose, one by one at first, then in bunches,
They just flew off into the darkness
There was a tearing sound when they came loose,
a grinding, tearing sound!
The way an earthquake must sound!
And... something started... to come through!
Tentacles, and there were pink things like suckers,
except sometimes they looked like faces,
and all of them were in agony.
Below them in the darkness underneath the street
In the darkness, beneath...
There was something else...
Something like...
Eyes!
