What have i become ?
alas, i never hoped i'd get to see through the glass.
The anger inside me slowly consuming.
will i destroy myself in the end ?
Hatred turns to darkness
my mind is shrouded in rage; despising everything i have no use for.
eating me alive. a light i cannot find.
alas, i didn't think i'd ever slip through the cracks
the anger within me eliminating every ounce of compassion that i used to know.
how can it be ? how could everything i love become a poison to me ?
can't you see i tried my best to contain my wrath and let myself be free ?
But i digress, my true calling is eternal rest.
I'm not fine.
a subtle shade cast from the light.
reach inside and see how dark is the mind.
but i've been burned alive, cast aside, left to die
and here i wait my untimely demise.
i'm not fine, i am forever denied.
i've never had to believe in god,
but i think i know now what it means to be forsaken by him.
a blackened heart burns it all, releasing my endless fury onto my kin.
it's almost poetic two nameless men fighting to the death.
a conscious battle where only one prevails with no regrets.
i don't belong, in any place for anyone.
i tried to make a living helping the ones i loved.
it's no use to run, i have to come to terms with who i have become.
how can it be ? how could everything i love become a poison to me ?
can't you see i tried my best to contain my wrath and let myself be.
I'm not fine.
a subtle shade cast from the light.
reach inside and see how dark is the mind.
but i've been burned alive, cast aside, left to die
and here i wait my untimely demise.
i'm not fine, i am forever denied.
a fateless man, hollowing more and more.
feeling the burn, a truth that should never be told.
breaking the silence, this voice is all i hear.
is it my own, or the one i held forever dear ?
what is my purpose ?
what is my answer ?
what have i become ?
alas, i never hoped i'd get to see through the glass.
The anger inside me slowly consuming.
will i destroy myself in the end ?
Hatred turns to darkness
my mind is shrouded in rage; despising everything i have no use for.
eating me alive, a light i cannot find.
I'm not fine.
a subtle shade cast from the light.
reach inside and see how dark is the mind.
but i've been burned alive, cast aside, lft to die
and here i wait my untimely demise.
i'm not fine, i am forever denied.

My first exposure to Inferi was seeing them live with Shadows of Intent. They were supporting this album.
Unbelievably awesome live show and the greatest possible way to discover this amazing band.
Love everything they produce. Obstacle of Affliction

Since Spenser Moore replaced Blackburn I’ve frankly appreciated Inferi far more. I feel that his drumming improves the overall sound of the band a great deal, but it’s probably just a personal style preference. Either way, Of Sunless Realms was a great foreshadowing of the epic Vile Genesis. Metallurgical Fire
