lyrics

Born of a dream, reproduce by thought
A larvae forms, settles in the nest
Deep in the womb of a chosen surrogate
Her name is Mary, she births a god

From this cacoon I whisper again
Unto thee, my most devoted servant

To the past you shall go and meet me in the flesh
You shall witness the torture they had me endure
And lick from me my wounds and take my love
And spread it to your beloved, to take in my glory

From this cacoon I whisper again
Unto thee, my most devoted servant

I will open a portal for thee, a gesture, a gift
For unwavering faith, it shall be rewarded now
Walk through this swirling vortex back two thousand years
And watch me die

I see the light of your sun shine upon me for the first time
Washing and bathing me in its glorified shine
My Mary bleeds upon my new face, I do not scream
The wisemen look upon me with love, gifts for their king
I shall become the martyr

We are Somat, the void made flesh! We paint nightmarish soundscapes through our own take on black/death metal with equal emphasis on riffs and atmosphere. Come, join our cult, and light a candle or two...
