Shadow Of Intent - The Catacombs Lyrics






Unforeseen this realm gives way to me
A demon unlatched from it's keep
Why do they stalk me in the shadows of my fate
Hail the darkened shrine
Circumvented womb of cessation
Forsake the light
Inhale pestilence

I dissipate from the realm of luminescent demiurge
To a chamber of blackened light and tainted oxygen
Filling my lungs with the stench of death
Misery fails to outweigh my fear

Blackness personified
The plight emerges and invites me in
Lapse of control, a shallow breath in litany
Claustrophobic, the walls seem to be closing in
Inhaling pestilence

The library devours all who attest the divinity of it's ancient design
Inhale the pestilence, forsake the light

Silenced has forever been the light of day
Defy your desire and kneel to me
Find solace in the darkness, within the scars healing
For only demise will restore the feeling of life

Obsessive, possessive
Follow me and you'll find I'm entitled as fuck
And I'll take what is mine
If you've got what I want
Then get ready to fall
Because I'll leave you with nothing
I'm taking it all

Shroud of confusion surrounds me
Should I kill myself or everyone around me
Will I ever find the answer to my question?
Will I ever recognize my own reflection

I'm a walking contradiction made in flesh
A mere discrepancy
Blurring lines where the lies and the truths meet
Paranoid and fixated on my own death
No matter how much that I chase it still eludes me

Petrified and surrounded by demise
Immeasurable power even in infancy
Shall we be undone in the darkness
Such devastation corrupts my mind

The plight emerges and invites me in
Lapse of control, a shallow breath in litany
Claustrophobic, the walls seem to be closing in
Inhaling pestilence

Silenced has forever been the light of day
Defy your desire and kneel to me
Find solace in the darkness, within the scars healing
For only demise will restore the feeling of life

Hail the darkened shrine
Forsake the light
Let the pestilence consume you

Circumvented womb of cessation
A multitude of wraiths embodied
Shrouding the monolith

The spire ripe with condemned containment
Nevertheless the guarded crusade attained
Harnessing the power within
The doomed immortalized

Harnessing the power within
Inhale the pestilence
Forsake the light

    When the devil goes to sleep he checks if dickie Allen is under his bed

  5. M.... M....

    I need to know the piano part!!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. R.... j....

    3:44 my blender would like to have a word

  7. A.... 5....

    Did sold soul copy the Dickie breakdown in their song the son of perdition or was it coincidence?

  8. I.... B....

    Should i kill myself or everyone around me?

    Yep, thats my life..

    I.... B....

    Same dude. Same

  9. V.... ....

    4:08 The way he says "Immortalized" is so fucking sexy!

  10. J.... S....

    Bree bree

  11. A.... M....

    3:44 this is a masterpiece, this is art
    sick fucking shit

  12. T.... ....

    This song made my dog start barking.

  13. R.... D....

    Русские есть?

  14. B.... W....

    3:42 to 4:03 sounds juuuust like Sold Soul - Son of Perdition.

  15. A.... ....

    The lyrics here a surprisingly good for modern deathcore

  16. J.... M....

    I’m paranoid of dickie alien under my bed lol

  17. K.... A....

    2:00 to 3:00 is just godly

  18. Z.... G....

    1:25. About the only part I liked. I love highs and lows as much as anyone. But these lows I'm just not a fan of or even the lyrics. Angel maker though. Those mfs I scream all day too!

  19. K.... ....

    Heavy>Heavier>( ) dickie vocals have no human term on how heavy his vocals are.
    When I first heard this I'm like where is vocalist 3 then 3:36 happened

    K.... ....

    I can't guarantee, but I'd say that the doubletime screams at 0:45 are his, too. Sounds too much like Infant Annihilator.

  20. J.... T....

    4:03 to 4:17 I have never been so turned on by another mans vocals

  21. C.... K....

    Just found this band a couple months ago and It saved my life lol but such vocabulary they have. Refreshing band for sure

  22. F.... -....

    Words cannot describe how amazing this song is. 😍 I also somehow deeply relate to some of these lyrics. 🤔

    F.... -....

    Right? That's funny, cos currently I'm doing a lyric video test and I decided to to take this song.
    "I also somehow deeply..."
    "Should I kill myself or everyone around me?" and "I'm a walking contradicton" personaly touch me
    while Jason's "I'm entitled as fuck" always pumps me up.
    Fucking love it when music is switching between rage fueled headanging brutality and melancholic melodic segments.
    You might like Until We Die (melo deathcore) to.

  23. A.... Z....

    @4:21-4:44 That moment when you go from a human being to a garbage disposal.

  24. P.... S....

    I need a pestilence count

    P.... S....

    I got six

  25. A.... P....

    Dickie Allen is from infant annihilator right? Sorry but I start listen to Deathcore band

  26. H.... G....

    listening at .75x is an intense 15 minute breakdown

  27. J.... L....

    Dickie is the fucking Gravemind.

  28. J.... S....

    The sound at 3:50 is inhuman

  29. J.... S....

    This is supposed to be about Halo ?

  30. C.... V....

    79 people couldnt get pass the Library mission

  31. A.... ....

    You know a song is gonna be awesome when the lyrics are "inhale pesistilence" LMAO! Love it

  32. E.... B....

    Amazing.

  33. S.... V....

    Music for the entity's of this dimension.

  34. N.... ....

    Fofofo fofofoooo

  35. S.... B....

    Can't get enough of this 🖤

  36. M.... C....

    4:17 was fucking hilarious lmfao, still my favorite song off the album tho

  37. M.... B....

    Ben is an insane vocalist but kind of miss the older sound - still good as fuck though

  38. M.... ....

    A masterpiece.

  39. I.... D....

    Nigga is saying immortalized like he got a dick being shoved in his mouth but great song by the way

  40. C.... R....

    Is this still halo lore? If so what part?

    C.... R....

    i believe its related to the flood

  41. A.... K....

    This is better than the porn I watch mmmmm

  42. g.... ....

    wait... can you guys actually read the lyrics to this?
    I can't

  43. K.... ....

    The instruments directly after "Forsake the light" give me chills every time.

  44. Y.... G....

    I keep coming back to this, again and again. Is this normal?

    Y.... G....

    Yash Gadwal yeah I do all the time

  45. L.... L....

    Amazing! 👌👌👌

  46. c.... ....

    3:44 wait, those are words!?

  47. R.... B....

    idk what half these words mean lol

  48. C.... ....

    Dickie is insane. SO MEATY AND BRUTAL

  49. �.... ....

    4:09 sounds like he spawned a demon in his throat mid scream to do the highs

  50. A.... K....

    What a fucking masturbation

  51. J.... C....

    like the story of Guts from Berserk

  52. T.... ....

    1.25 speed

  53. m.... ....

    This masterpiece brings tears to my eyes.
    This bursting doublebase, the insane voice of Ben, an awesome guitar(solo) and this fucking piano that slows down the hole thing and gives a nice chill.
    Can't believe that someone don't like this...

  54. w.... ....

    jason's growl really reminds me of earlier sykes growls

  55. J.... L....

    this would be epic live

  56. K.... ....

    "Harnessing the power within" = "roarrr roarrr, roarr roarr, roooaaarrr" xD

    K.... ....

    Michał Napierała "RUUUUUURUUUUURURR" - Dickie Allen

    K.... ....

    Circumvented womb of cessation a multitude of wraiths embodied shrouding the monolith = roarr roarrrr roarrrr roarrrrrrrrr roarrrr roarrrrrrrrr roarrrr roarr roaaaarrr roaaaarrrr roarrrr roaaaaaaaaaarrrr

    K.... ....

  60. J.... M....

    At 1:23 i came so hard

  61. C.... ....

    Ok, it's official Dickie Allen isn't human.

  62. e.... b....

    Ingested and infant annihilator

  63. D.... P....

    Just started jamming these dudes and wow.. what have i been missing!? These dudes kill it 🤘

  64. J.... S....

    Hi guys, I made a cover of this song, If you want to check it out 🤟🏻😁

  65. A.... ....

    This song makes me wet

  66. �.... Y....

    Yeah awesome

  67. P.... ....

    Nigga...

  68. A.... ....

    1:22 fuck yeah

  69. J.... ....

    Vocals sound like gravemind

  70. H.... H....

    The end just killed me.

  71. E.... M....

    When Death Metal and Deathcore comes together they make orgasms

  72. A.... ....

    2:40 to 3:12 is insane. I love the chorus of this song. So visceral.

  73. C.... B....

    3 of my favorite vocalists in the same song! This is so sick!

  74. S.... V....

    Vous êtes excellent les gars ! Vous méritez d'être beaucoup plus connu !

  75. h.... ....

    Honestly, this is one of the best deathcore songs ive listened to. I know there are lots more others but the mixing in this song is just phenomenal. With dickie and jason evans, nothing could ever go wrong. Not forgetting ben duerr's solid vocals. Never heard of them before but now they are one of my favourite bands, keep it up lads

  76. R.... ....

    Why does this game make me think of destroying bosses in dark souls lol

  77. E.... T....

    3:35 Damn bitch! Who tf is that? That's some gnarly fucking vocals man.

    E.... T....

    That_Stupid_Noob dickie allen

  78. C.... ....

    these breaks are killing me, Lorna Shore/Aversions Crown all over :D

  79. S.... 9....

    Ok im addicted to that "immortalised"

    S.... 9....

    Same. Dope to hear that transition from tunnel throat guttural to his high

    S.... 9....

    It isn’t just insane sounding - it’s insanely hard to do and not voice crack or hurt your throat. Imagine screaming as low as possible and then going as high as possible and not hurt your throat or get that noise that happens when you switch from going low to high.

  80. M.... H....

    I just came 3000 times
    💪😈🤘

  81. N.... D....

    3:44-3:53 is why i love dickie allen.

  82. D.... o....

    Fuck i love this song. :)

  83. M.... ....

    I used to hate dickie allens part until i tried it,, should've had the swiss army mega knife

  84. C.... D....

    WOWWWWWW lml lml lml

  85. A.... M....

    Omg, why so brutal?

  86. �.... Y....

    Good sound

  87. J.... V....

    Halocore

  88. j.... ....

    3:44 I tried listening to this part over and over again and there's absolutely no way of telling that those are the words he's saying. Shit is just garbled noise. At least Ben has dictation on his growls.

    j.... ....

    jck1794 Same but I enjoyed it

  89. l.... ....

    I love how at 3:44 Dickie's vocals are so unintelligible that he put everything into one paragraph lmao

    l.... ....

    DweebLord I can actually follow it I’ve listened to so much slam 😂 just got to go by synonyms lol

    l.... ....

    @Brandon Broz synonyms?

    l.... ....

    William Paddock I think he meant SYLLABLES

    l.... ....

    Am I the only one who can make out the words? I mean I'm fluent in Ork, but this is a human defect.

    l.... ....

    Bruh these replies are golden I'm high asf right now. 😂😂

  90. U.... M....

  91. a.... t....

    H O L Y F U C K

  94. L.... J....

    I have no more fucking eyelashes #lashedout

  95. S.... ....

    4:05 sick shit...

  96. s.... l....

    I found out about this band because I was brave enough to ask the upper class men at my school about it. I'm glad I asked 🖤🖤

  97. j.... a....

    ben, jason, and dickie this three demon vocalist open portals all over the cosmos..... first we got evan as the angel hunter, then ben is the prince and commander of nexus and at last the unholy tyrant dickie allen arising from the mouth of hell sucking the souls of the bastards of the cosmos
