For the night
Here begins the...Rite
A dark mass where no light
No life exists and endures
Nothing but the murmur of leaves
Limbs and roots interlace
Ravenous tentacles
Devouring whoever dares to enter
Thirsty for blood and bones
They capture lost souls
Bury them in the depths of the woods
Dead trees’ stalk are engraved
With ancient symbols
Reminiscences of cruel forgotten
Gods
A dark mass where no light
No life exists and endures
Threatening wooden sculptures
Surrounded by a sinister halo
Are scattered around.
Endless silent expanse
From which no one returns
Through this mystical lifeless vastness
Slowly and without fear, the pilgrim is walking
Whispering ritual psalms
Calling on
Eternal deities of the nightfall
Eyeless creature with runes
Nefarious voices lead him
At the end of the path
Awaits a dark inner sanctuary
Shrine of nightmares and tears
Black altar arises
Made of skulls, earth and prayers
Hideous aura emanates from him
Invading everything around
Putrid scent pervades
Everything
Noctem aeternam
Pilgrim kneels before the sempiternal structure
A shadow surrounds him
Malevolent presence
Creature of dusk

Standing on the ruins, here begins
The descent into the abyssal depths
At the edge of deepless chasm
A final odyssey through the silent empire
Dark souls sway at the end
of lifeless membrane
Illusions of perdition bring with them
Elapsed faiths, regrets and failures
Inside oracle’s voice guides him
No turning back, no exit
A spectral dance surrounds the herald
Storyteller of occult secrets
Legends of the past
Into the void, an astral voice awakes the dead
Lyre breathes life into motionless beings
A vain quest beyond the seven circles
Never look back
A vain quest beyond the seven circles
Never look back…
A vain quest beyond the seven circles
Never look back
A vain quest beyond the seven circles
Never look back…
Now a great silence reigns
Here begins the upside down
Perfect no man’s land
The black dust particles levitate
All around
Pale fireflies are the only source of light
A vain quest beyond the seven circles
Never look back
A vain quest beyond the seven circles
Never look back
She'll be forever
Trapped
In Hell!
Nocturnal monsters lurk
Lifeless, relentless predators
Crawling on a ground covered
With fragments of corpses
He’ll never back
Black sun as only horizon
He’ll never back
Abyss as only vision
Now a great silence reigns
Here begins the upside down
Time doesn’t exist in this frozen era
The black dust particles levitate all around
Pale fireflies are the only source of light
Enclosed in the abysmal mouth
His beloved is enthroned
In the black flames
An eternal sleep will never end

Mother…
Mother of sorrows
Listen my last vow
Here lie the faceless
In the valley of shadows
The shrine of wandering souls
Harken their complaints, feel their cries
At the end everyone dies
Between its arms, among the damned
Unholy presence prevails
Harken their complaints, feel their cries
At the end everyone dies
Between its arms, among the damned
Unholy presence prevails
Nothingness’s waiting for them
Nothingness’s waiting for them
Nothingness’s waiting for them
Nothingness’s waiting for...them
Reign of voracious queen begins
Blowing everything on its way
Blowing everything on its way
They’re…
Looking for the embrace of mother of the night
Sempiternal and eyeless
The hourglass is empty, black sands fly
Fallen dive deep into the abyss
Nothing but black stars
The altars of divinity rise up through the ether
Here lie the faceless
In the valley of shadows
The shrine of wandering souls
Rituals create sense of order
Connect us to the fallen
Diving into the whispers
At the end everyone dies
Between its arms, among the damned
Unholy presence prevails
Harken their complaints, feel their cries
At the end everyone dies
Between its arms, among the damned
Unholy presence prevails
Nothingness’s waiting for them
Nothingness’s waiting for them
Nothingness’s waiting for them
Eternal rest,
Eternal rest,
The vault of heaven remains silent
In the depths a thousand cries echo
Relentless and mercyless
Abysmal mouth will devoure us
Fallen dive into the abyss
Mother of sorrow
Reign of voracious queen begins
Blowing everything on its way
Blowing everything on its way
They’re…
Looking for the embrace of mother of the night
Sempiternal and eyeless

Sic Mundus Creatus Est
Since the dawn of time
We sit in this immaterial temple
Hidden from view, forgotten by all
Separated from space and time
We’re the children of the eternity
The chaos’ procreators
To enslave death we must subdue it
As architects of the genesis of evil
We’re the Great Old Ones
Our crowns are forged
With souls of vanquished gods
Death veils are woven
With torments suffered by the damned
From dark matter we’re born
In nothingness we die
Our crepuscular shrine lies in erebus
Sic Mundus Creatus Est
Myths and lores give us many names
When everything was darkness, void and nothingness
We carved the universe as it is
Deciding the fate of every being
Condemning this world to eternal night
From our tears we created the black sun
There is no free will, no divine providence
Ephemeral creatures are tools, servants
In this shapeless chaos
Even shadows kneel before our preeminence
Since the dawn of time
We sit in this immaterial temple
Hidden from view, forgotten by all
Separated from space and time
Under the almighty hands
The structure takes shape
Step by step the golem comes to life
Calling for the downfall of mankind
Colossus of the ancient world
Born from pain, misery and despair
Waiting for the end of the ritual
Say my name
Older than time itself
Fear my coming
Decipher signs of my
Completion, completion
Under the eclipse we’re enthroned

Deathcore fans will love this, though there is some Melodic DM in here too, so it's a bit like defining tech MDM on its own. Melodic intros keep things interesting (check Scepter for ex.) and prevents getting bored with "typical" deathcore tracks all sounding alike after a while.
