8. Faith Desecration - represents the moment when negativity fully takes hold and all sense of hope begins to fade. It reflects the loss of faith—not just in humanity, but in life itself—when belief and trust are replaced by emptiness and disillusionment.

9. Throne of Misanthropy - delves into the feeling of isolation from society and the deep disgust toward the collective ignorance and failures of humanity. It expresses the struggle to feel empathy in a world that often feels irredeemably vile. The track symbolizes a conscious separation from what’s perceived as a parasitic species, choosing instead to ascend to one’s own throne, detached and removed from a world full of disgusting human beings.

10. Existential despair refers to a profound and overwhelming sense of meaninglessness or hopelessness that emerges when an individual confronts the core questions of human existence.

These may include:

Why am I here?

Does life have any real meaning or purpose?

Am I truly free, or merely a product of my circumstances?

This state of despair often arises when the answers to these questions seem unreachable, unsatisfying, or nonexistent, leaving a person with a deep emotional void and a sense of spiritual or philosophical crisis.
