patience is no virtue
emptiness, your permanence
pull the shallow temper through
burn all you've inherited
deny the line
you have drawn in the sand
defiant crime
erase everything you can
fool the blind
break with hammer in hand
burn the signs
disintegrate all you can
no light
there is no escape
goodbye
as your life decays
rip out the borders at the seams
force the flesh in through the beams
penetrating the obscene
there are no edges only extremes
bleed the line
the circuitry burning through
seed the mind
propaganda lives in you
reap the mine
you are brazen, useless waste
degrading time
force-fed manufactured hate
no light
there is no escape
goodbye
as your life decays
feed me
you know what I need
don't leave me
on blistered knees

dead skin
04:43
|
|||
|
i wake among the rot, the oxidized
unfurled bones unrecognized
decomposed ideals and faith
the denigrated and the hated
i crawl from skin and blood
from the edge of all you loved
beneath this shell unscathed I dwell
i abdicate all you expel
trepidation makes me real
deranged from all, all that feels
stained glass cut through your veins
that carry tainted liquid pain
empty thoughts dispursed and fractured
emptiness is my only rapture
they can't help you
they are absent
they are void, the disconnected
you bear
dead skin lies
you wear
dead skin eyes
with the pride that left me hating
distorted, tried and infiltrating
every nightmare I have to give
your repentance, born to live
turning from psychotic pain
to the obsessive and profane
i've only just begun to strive
to make you hate your days alive
suffer just to see me smile
suffocating in denial
the altar in your thoughts betrays
you've yet to see your blackest days
empty thoughts dispursed and fractured
emptiness my only rapture
they can't help you
from this disease
they will never hear your pleas
you bear
dead skin lies
you wear
dead skin eyes
dead skin
dead skin
dead skin
dead skin

clawing my way out from beneath the skin
flaking, fractured surfaces reflect the sin
behind the coy and faked facade
i've become the madman, the flawed
i can not be made to wait any more
i must proliferate and scrape down the door
exhausted and persisting in spite of giving in
i've lost all sense of lucid reality within
inside this shell I've carved from bone
the space I've bound myself into alone
i will not be made to wait any more
i am verging on the ruptured, pulsing core
shame is only an illusion you're force fed
this conformity is all but withered down and dead
framed into petty pictures of your escapist lie
i reject it all, this infantile fable I can't abide
i refuse to let myself stand by any more
this shell's eruption is my impending war
this is not where I belong
this is not where I belong
this is not

pearls
03:57
|
|||
|
this is the realest thing
the heavy and the pristine
partake in everything
with bones brittle and lean
i am temporary
animated and fleeting
within thoughts swept clean
you pushed through these dreams
you are just as
perfect as pearls
i can not be
part of your world
here in the emptiness
reminds me of our end
the empty invitation
that you refuse to bend
but I won't hear the lie
and I believe you'll choose to
run away and hide
you are just as
perfect as pearls
i can not be
part of your world
you are just as
perfect as pearls
i can not be
part of your world

disappear
05:00
|

|
everything
everywhere
you have been
everything your filthy
hands have touched
has been tainted
disconnected
effectively defective
this is my desire
do I crave too much
behind and inside
from beneath it all
i am the obscured mind
from within your filth I crawl
thoughts turn into
cracked porcelain
reveal only the shadow
the darkness in the pain
all this time
all my life
nothing has been
so sharp, so cutting
behind and inside
from beneath the stain
i became all I feared
everything betrayed
drive the hammer down
into me, into this cavity
never been so clear
uninvited lucidity
no more fear
i'll make you disappear
broken
time
splintered
emulsified
drive the hammer down
into me, into this cavity
never been so clear
uninvited lucidity
no more fear
i'll make you disappear
scraping at the insides
of myself
until everything is black
tearing at the walls
in myself
until everything is black
scraping at the insides
of myself
until everything is black
tearing at the walls
in myself
until everything is black

baptism by fire
04:19
|
|||
|
there's nothing left with the eye
beholder has been crucified
a simple stone, a simple coffin
for those who cower behind
empty hope from empty words
emptied all but the absurd
it's fitting for the feces
of the land
of the free
on this plank of wood you hang
from all the wasted useless feigning
speeches falling from your shame
the vomit of your life
it never changes
it'll never be okay
it never changes
and never will until the day you die
[religious quote]: "homosexuality prevents man's fulfillment of and adherence to this command; these are indeed crimes against nature"
NOW
baptism by fire
forced into the TRIAL
bastards of the TRUTH
no one can save you
NOW
baptism by fire
forced into the TRIAL
bastards of the TRUTH
no one can save you
come inside the walls of fear
and let me make sure you are here to
listen to me so you'll stay out of
burning pain
let me save you from your sin
i will betray you again
NOW
Baptism by fire
Forced into the TRIAL
Bastards of the TRUTH
No one can save you
NOW
baptism by fire
forced into the TRIAL
bastards of the TRUTH
no one can save you
[religious quote]: "for one, there's no such thing as an atheist; everyone knows that god exists, just like paul said, he's made it plain and abundantly clear; even these hard-hearted truth suppressors know god."
NOW
the everlasting LIAR
forced into the TRIAL
bastard of the TRUTH
no one can save you
NOW
baptism by fire
pushed toward the end
paying for the TRUTH
we will make you dead

fail you
03:52
|
|||
|
a moment of bliss
inside of this plush perfection
your look, your smell
your tragic kiss stirring advection
i want to possess your perfect mess
your obsession
this is my ambition
my oath's violation
but i will fail you
your hope, my sin
i will fail you
again and again
break down defenses
i press the edge, i'll wear you thin
i'll tear away at your resistance
invite me in
i want to live inside you
my kingdom's tower
i'll put my seed deep inside
you will endow my power
but i will fail you
your hope, my sin
i will fail you
again and again
yes, i will fail you
you'll hold it in
i will fail you
again and again and again
everything about you makes it
hard to let go
i'll tighten my grip on your
scarred and ravaged soul
but i will fail you
your hope, my sin
i will fail you
again and again
yes, i will fail you
you'll hold it inside of you
i will fail you
again and again and again

farther away
05:36
|
|||
|
breathe me in
i am where you begin
bitter relief
will put the pain at ease
regret runs deep
this brings it all to heel
no mind to keep
no more need to feel
open wide
swallowing the pride
in due time
i see it in your eyes
(you can't turn away)
(you can't look away)
you see only death and decay
disdain drags you farther away
for every breath that runs from me
my self runs farther away
codependency
your sight knows only me
but you must feed
hunger growing as they bleed
shame runs deep
break it off at the knees
the ache, you keep
now you belong to me
open wide
choking on your pride
in due time
growing from inside
(you can't turn away)
(you can't look away)
you see only death and decay
disdain drags you farther away
for every breath that runs from me
my self runs farther away
put this inside you
put me inside you
i will make you real
i will empower you to feel
put this inside you
put me inside you
i will give you pain
i will push you farther away
put this inside you
put me inside you
i will bring you pain
i will push you farther away

believer
04:22
|

|
the ending days into hell
you will be treated so well
consumed by this nightmare fever
you would make me a believer
an empty shell is easy to bend
molded by a mad pulpiteer
from innocence to a twisted end
the vehicle of reverent fear
inside the decay begets decay
it's time we say it's all bu t
just a waste
just a taste
blood of the magic man
leaking through my fingers
though my hands
the mind's nightmare cleaver
i am the believer
never mourned but forgotten lies
buried under burning brooks and spines
passion of the killer of the faith
sell my soul for stones to build the hate
inside the clay we wash away
this human race remains
just a waste
just a taste
blood of the damned
leaking through my fingers
though my hands
the mind's nightmare cleaver, i am
i am the believer
broken symbols, broken hands
forced on you by human man
this nightmare is a reality
believer, i am a believer

heartbeat
05:24
|
|||
|
the invitation reaches me
extended neck to help what I can't see
peering into fractured scenes
but curiosity consumes everything
becoming what i dread the most
this self identity is just a ghost
the other side beckoning me
come and feel this terminal release
the echo of the void
calling me back to emptiness
i feel i have no choice
every heartbeat brings me
closer to the edge
its comfort paralyzes me
my own thoughts now a stranger to me
the other side brings home to me
the pain can fall away and i become nothing
and i become nothing
and i become nothing
the echo of the void
calling me back to emptiness
i feel i have no choice
every heartbeat brings me
closer to the edge
screaming in my head
pulling me down in desolation
the emptiness is creeping in
with every heartbeat
i'm closer to the end
drive it down, deeper
inch by inch by vile rapture
penetrating, so eager
i need pain to make this clearer
drive it down, deeper
inch by inch by vile rapture
penetrating, eager
this obsession takes the mirror
shatter
shatter
the echo of the void
calling me back to emptiness
i feel i have no choice
every heartbeat brings me
closer to the edge
screaming in my head
pulling me down in desolation
the emptiness is creeping in
with every heartbeat
i'm closer to the end
every heartbeat
i'm closer to the edge
every heartbeat
i'm closer to the edge

left behind
04:49
|
|||
|
i never hoped for this
the pouring out of my consciousness
an end to all i'll never miss
an end to a falacy's endurance
below the surface of dilerium
all that remains is this
bewildered, curious of what may come
secretly waiting on the reaper's kiss
i've been left behind
i've been left behind
and now i'm without you
freedom now without you
becoming without you
more of me without you
the crooked footprints leading me
to a place i wished i'd never seen
the memory won't wash away
enslaved by my own obsessive dismay
i never told you
i never wanted to tell you
i've been left behind
i've been left behind
and now i'm without you
freedom now without you
becoming without you
more of me without you

killer of the fight
02:45

decadence deliverance
can you feel this
constant indifference
intolerance
eyeing the weakness
in everything
this impulse control
torments avidity
cowering
in secret you flee
overpowering
debasing only the weak
you will fall
heed oblivion
ruination my delight
witness all
fear aggregation
facing the killer of the fight
my rapture in seeing you break
the artificial, weak and opaque
your false integrity liquidated
the truth is all you ever hated
nightmare
coming to life
my lustful stare
as i choke out the light
you will fall
heed oblivion
ruination my delight
witness all
fear aggregation
facing the killer of the fight
you will desist
i will break you down
cease to exist
the end begins now
i am your killer
i am your killer
i am your killer
i am your self

tarnish
04:56
|
|||
|
feel the shame fall through the cracks
through a stained rupture of time
no position remains in tact
a passage vacant of the eyes
fed in fragmented design
with the intent to control
bought and paid for with the lie
where the will was, just a hole
cut the dream out from inside
like a fish hook through the teeth
a sense of self abandoned pride
grown in place of reason
i can not look at myself
can not face reality
i can not look at myself
to see what you did to me
dead seed
dead seed
dead seed
dead seed
push me down
break me in
i am the instrument
i am the tarnish on your skin
bred and born then left for dead
the empty seed becomes a man
pull the strings to see what you get
obedience proves who i am
i can not look at myself
can not face reality
i can not look at myself
to see what you did to me
push me down
break me in
i am the instrument
i am the tarnish on your skin
emptiness
faithlessness
meaningless
hopelessness
push me down
break me in
i am the instrument
i am the tarnish on your skin
dead seed
dead seed
dead seed
dead seed

the last beautiful
06:48
|

|
adrift along a stream of memories
pinned down from the weight of entropy
a sharp relief brings up the effigy
of all that i felt when you looked at me
i don't what else to do
the parts of me i wish were never true
slowly losing hold on everything
something wake me from this wretched dream
gone is a word that i repeat
the itch of your absence, i admit defeat
pale is the fear compared to grief
what else remains at all to believe
you were the last
beautiful thing in my life
you were the last
beautiful thing in my life
scraping out the last of all i feel
every breath grows more and more surreal
the urge to run away from everything
culls the hope to carry on and be
you were the last
beautiful thing in my life
you were the last
beautiful thing in my life
