Song of Kali 05:23
Song of Kali Music by Cordisco, Lyrics by Cordisco/Parris A secret cult has come calling me tonight A deadly voice has claimed my spirit Hatred of mankind drives the world insane A wrathful voice with a poison breath Sing her song of death Bring me to my final rest The left hand path is shown The gift of life is overthrown My child's fear has driven me to hate Killer's intention pushing me beyond The blood is pumping through my evil heart Stop this madness, the Earth's doomed fate An age of destruction An age of fear An age of darkness We can't live on from here The beast that controls me And rules my life It's all around our world Prepare to die A seed of dissension A seed of hatred A seed of sorrow Humanity's lament The beast that controls us And rules our lives It's all around our souls All hope has died

Something More Music by Cordisco, Lyrics by M. Shermett/Parris Lost in the woods, searching for destiny  Darkness and blood, as you shield me from death  Carried on your shoulders, guiding me through life The sword of destiny has two edges In a whirlwind You must move your feet  And part your blows In a whirlwind You're not alone My child of destiny Dreaming of something more And through the night Your arms comfort me Dreaming of something more Training by daylight The pendulum swings My childhood memories, begin with you  You’re always there to protect and keep me I Feel the life draining from you Father don’t leave, I can save you now

Promethium 05:22
Promethium Music by Cordisco, Lyrics by Parris Behold this, now my story, of how I came to be A life not lived, instead implanted scientifically Born of light, subject to a dark rejection My first experience ignited flames of hatred When I first opened my eyes The terror was growing inside The pain that I felt the emotions were drowning My soul in reality’s hold The face of the father denied Echoing screams intertwined The sorrow I felt and the loneliness swelled to the disdain of all humankind Am I doomed to live a monster, Master you created me. I seek the light, the truth, the answer, but no you abandoned me. Yet I live, I live in agony Master please, please end this misery Yet I ask, all I ask of you is mercy Master don't, don't turn your back on me When I first opened a book A flash of a memory took The knowledge inside quickly banished the thought That I would have to stay here alone I studied your ways from inside The world quickly opened my eyes The cruelty of man, simple things, little creatures Of such weakened mind, flesh, and bone. I took my first step outside And you weren’t there to guide me here I find you, should you suffer I should take it all away. You know I’ll always find you There is no place to hide I long for love you will create for me a picture perfect bride. Am I cursed, a cursed monstrosity Cast away, can't bear the sight of me Pain inside, with every breath I'm breathing All alone, my love abandons me

Edge of Saturn Music by Cordisco, Lyrics by Parris At the end of our line We cross the point of no return Not knowing if the plan would work But even so we could die trying Reset the universe Sounded easier than the life enslaved back on Earth Away into space, here we lay At the face of the life that we now yearn Charge the Ray Burn Away Split open wide a portal So vast and wide This heart of space A light so fierce it blinds us When I open my eyes I see Standing face to face with me A haunting imagery, overwhelms my mind Reaching terrifying speeds In Saturn is the key A future in between, we embrace the signs Promised in time, all the answers Etched in chaos, spreads like cancer Edge of Saturn, Rings are shattered Shed this prison of organic matter Charge the Ray Fade Away Absorbed the lasting knowledge No longer such A simple race Evolved beyond what’s charted When I open my mind I see Greater paths inside of me Defy beyond all means, turn a page in time Reaching everlasting peace In Saturn is the key Erasing history, we untie these binds The dread, all fear disintegrates The order, will soon be erased Open my mind, to see The greater path inside of me Erasing history, seek the sign, reaching everlasting peace.

Mastermind Manipulators Music by Cordisco, Lyrics by Parris You see them on the news manipulating you You are the prey they seek because you bite their bait thats full of hooks So firmly planted that you're pulled into your doom It's time to free your mind from all the earthly binds Mastermind manipulators Forced into believing a lie Don't you see now how they've carried on How else would you explain That eerie feeling when the time has gone You are the victim, in a broken system It's the alliance that they breed I know it's so hard, to just believe me When you're observing from your knees They hold the secrets to mankind Mastermind manipulators In the dark cold expanse Did you think we were all alone But is it so insane that you stop thinking Because you know they're wrong We saw the warnings of the life beyond the lies We saw the failures and the secrets of disguise We saw the cold dead light descending from the skies We saw the timed distraction in their great divide Why can't you understand the strings attached to man So please ask yourself are you content in falling for their plans You fail to comprehend the signs They hold the secrets to mankind Convinced of blissful blatant lies You are experimentally blind Mastermind manipulators

Starbound Butcher of my Dreams Music by Cordisco, Lyrics by Parris I have seen them in the shadows of the moon Things beyond the darkest dreams They call me crazy, you may call me what you will I know what I have seen walking where nightmares usurp the dreams Reserve your judgement! For I have seen! The Starbound Butcher of my dreams No signs of an end to comfort me The Starbound Butcher of my dreams Uploading visions and erasing Terrifying maddening streams descending down The cracks of sanity disguising chaos underneath And how blissful it must be Ignorant the lamb untouched by slaughter Frightening Power! It's haunting me! Yet here I lay staring at the face Belonging to the Starbound Butcher of my dreams Rising Tower! From the Sea!

Of Mice and Strawmen Music by Cordisco, Lyrics by Cordisco/Parris Templar -- unaffected by reason Devout -- unmoved by thought Oppressed -- voices are silenced By the fascist hell they’ve wrought Deny -- the gift of reason Deny -- the gift of thought Deny -- truth and freedom As we burn in this bed they’ve made They’re no longer thinking They uphold the status quo We must stand against it Refuse to play a losing game In a guise of unseen law Puppets beating men of straw On and on they pound The weak opposing progress Making claims to save us all But we will fight! Rewrite -- abstractions and treason Fallacy -- will rule the day System -- of gross injustice And apathy is their only way Deny -- our basic rights Deny -- a better world Deny -- all brotherhood To burn in systemic fires of hate They refuse to see humanity They are blind mice in a maze Mass silence is their ally Their proclamations devastate Worshipping their demagogue Puppets beating men of straw On and on they pound Their "faith" opposing progress Making claims to save us all But we will fight! They’ve denied their sentience They are puppets on a string Remember all the faces Of all those brainwashed by their sick pathetic ways Hanging on to their prejudice Puppets beating men of straw On and on they pound Militant opposing progress Making claims to save us all But we will fight!

Aeternum Vale Music by Cordisco, Lyrics by Cordisco/Parris Drifting through the halls A landscape of all I’ve lost A graveyard with no stones I find I have no answers! A journey must now end While wounds forever bleed To save what I hold dear Powerless, I cannot alter! Save your breath And heed the call Close your eyes and fall Into the edge of time This is the last chance Now we say goodbye Close your eyes You shined so bright in life No rituals for you No stone to mark your life Few understand the price Now they turn away from my side! Together we were one Between our hearts we speak I hold you deep within Rest now my child forever! And all will pass Into the night And all will pass Look to the sky And all will pass Into the night Look to the sky Our time cannot be replaced The space that’s left So empty now But with each breath The beauty defied the sands of time

about

Edge of Saturn finds PROJECT: ROENWOLFE co-founders Patrick Parris (vocals) and guitarist/songwriter Alicia Cordisco (ex-Judicator) joined by drummer Ernie Topran (Theocracy, ex-Halcyon Way) strengthen the manifestation of their vision for crunchy-yet-melodic thrash metal with epically soaring vocals—perfectly suited for fans of Nevermore, Forbidden, Control Denied and Artillery. The nine-song, 50-minute affair is a skillfully diverse effort that never favors variety or complexity over the sheer power of memorable, high-energy songwriting.

Lyrically, the album explores both the personal and the political, often through the creative lens of science fiction—be the concepts originally penned or inspired by literary legends such as Lovecraft, Shelley, Simmons, and Sapkowski. The title track, in fact, is a direct continuation of Neverwhere Dreamscape's "Split the Rings of Saturn" storyline, with the intention of expanding the saga across future recordings.
