Sonus Mortis - "The Elimination Of The Archaic" (OFFICIAL LYRIC VIDEO)

Official lyric music video for "The Elimination Of The Archaic" off the upcoming 7th Sonus Mortis album "Of Red Barren Earth". Release date 25th October 2023.

"The Elimination Of The Archaic" is a song written early 2023 with the lyrics focusing on the desire to break away from what it seen as harmful, dangerous "archaic" ways of thinking and acting. It is healthy to have some amount of skepticism towards those in power and questioning motives. To be wary of propaganda and the manipulation of information. It is a social critique and commentary on humanity/society, religious hypocrisy and the perversion of spiritual values. Who has come to save us all?

Mixed and mastered by Mick Richards at Trackmix Studios.

Lyrics:
Release our tethered minds from ego's grip.
As our hold on reality is starting to slip.
Unmask the truth that binds and soars
Break away from chains we Earthly dwellers adore.

Through violence. Through inhumanity.

It's time to dine on mankind.
Mutual assured destruction.
Celestial septic shock, parasitic infectious talk
within our minds, we know, we're doomed.

Embrace the coming apocalypse
Through heightened terror they tighten their grip.
And raise the drawbridge up.
Mother Earth cast away in exile
Tongued like a snake she strikes at all those hostile and all those fertile.

It seeds it's greed discreetly.
Blooming nightmare dreams.
All hope is absent.
All destruction is with intent.
These flowers hold secrets of
Edens poisoned rotten core.

We slay the lamb and we drink the wine
with a quenchless thirst for the infinite.
Where was the guilt and where was the shame
As we drown in gold and do the opposite.
We ride towards the reaper of the sun.
towards the reaper of the sun who has now come
to kill us all.

Who has come to save us all?
Who has come to enslave us?
Who has come to save us all?
Who has come to masquerade?

The apathy of the ignorant.
The mordant sense of the insolent.
Perverting virtue under false pretenses .
The ministry of truth...our new sixth sense.

Now watch us eliminate the archaic.
Smash the mosaic.
Kill old pariahs and corrupted messiahs,
Free ourselves from certain doom.
Free ourselves from certain doom!
