Sleep Cerberus (Nix vox mix) - Lex Plexus and Nix Nihil lyrics by Nix Nihil loathing, lone-wolfing beneath the veneer still sneering so standing aware we dream of sleep danger remaining stopping the barking choking and gobbling guarding the threshold shepherding three-headed dog we are cerberus grooming the evidence, it disappears the secret the sequence (digesting enzymes) we’re omnivorous the bones for gnawing feasting and feeding, beckoning, calling licking and teething, panting and howling closing worthless circuits lay down with the serpent in the dungeon deep in halls of Hades we are the dog "becoming-human" In pure entropy we will dissolve In essence never evolve forever alone in the dungeon deep in the halls of Hades we are the prisoners "becoming-dog" in pure entropy we will dissolve in silence never evolve together alone in the dungeon in the cellar we’re sleeping just let us be and leave the dog lie gaining, closing distance the smell of your fear, it doesn’t wash off and turn the lights off we are the gatekeeper we are the earth-shaker we are the hell-raiser we are so weary so just keep it down won’t you humor me with a moment’s peace? in the dungeon stuck in halls of Hades we are the dog "becoming-human" In pure entropy we will dissolve our essence never evolve forever alone in the desert in the crypt in the halls of the labyrinth we are the prisoners "becoming-dog" encountering entropy we will dissolve insomniac victim of negated Nyx forever alone we drink from the Styx in the dungeon in the crypt we’re sleeping snoring in the desert in the crypt we sleep in silence in the desert in the crypt we sleep in silence

Path of the Lightning Caster - Lex Plexus and Nix Nihil lyrics by Nix Nihil Introductory Excerpt: Raising the staff up to the cowering sun, the caster blocks what light remains as the last patch of open sky is swallowed up by heavy grey clouds. Rippling disruptions emerge at the vectors of the impending lightning chain manifestation. The caster leaps forward, self-righting into perfect balance, jabbing the staff forward into the horizon, rending the sky with a pillar of jagged light. The heavens groan and crack; the world momentarily flickers as the inevitable thunder chases its luminous counterpart across the sky. Lyrics: Crash, split, return Flash, strike, illuminate I am the invoker of the ion air I am the provoker of celestial flairs I am the beholder of the storm’s eye I am the consoler of the crying sky Humanity calls me a shadow-sweeper A wind-walker, a promise-keeper— A grinning reaper, a master blaster, As they behold the lightning caster! Crash, split, return Flash, strike, illuminate The mounting excitement vibrates unceasing movements of time and space The shifting through the phases Disintegrating, reintegrating Reveling in the rearranging A zillion different configurations all at the same time forever and never always and already, and ever after An imperative was issued across the aeons Resonating with the concentrated vibrations Executed through a living conduit Blasting to infinity light years in the distance An ancient star acknowledges Explodes in recognition of this covenant The caster now concludes the chant A wordless murmuring of assent Crash, split, return Flash, strike, illuminate Crash, split, return Light the path of the lightning-caster The caster casts the runic staff, spinning it overhead in a flash bathing in an electric wind scraping a sphere of ectoplasm a steady beat emerges driving like the engine of a grand locomotive immutable rhythm of the universe rending the sky with a pillar of light Humanity calls me a shadow-sweeper A wind-walker, a promise-keeper A grinning reaper, a master blaster, As they behold the lightning caster! Concluding Excerpt: The caster, standing stone-still with bent knees, raised head, and extended arms, bows while the pouring rain and the jubilant voices ring true. The caster drinks in these surroundings, beholding everything while all visions crackle back into fractals, all air surges back into lungs, and all jarred consciousness rediscovers physical form as intense sensory stimuli saturates all receptors. Panting with satisfaction, the caster observes a moment of gratitude before rejoining the tribe with a smile, returning to the mundane.
