Damned 04:10
Damned From the very first sight Attraction to obsession Filling my mind With everything That doesn’t matter I was Connecting the dots To form What was never there Whatever did I see? Whatever you showed I believed Led Through the arches Oblivious of blotches Chain her to me Chain her to me CHAINED Chain her to me Chain her to me Through a binding ring Chain her to me Chain her to me To the DEATH False happiness Fleeting Ignoring red flags I didn’t even heed advice from my dad Shred dress clothes to rags Every time I didn’t listen it ended bad Whatever did I see? Whatever you showed I believed Young and so naive Yearning I wanted to believe I just wanted to believe I bought it all Hook Line Sinker I bought it all All-consuming I carved Your name You carved Into my flesh

Wide ocean Push your body out Push your body away and alone Push your body to feel strong I’ve seen friends come and go My hands are killing From hurting more You are the shame Broken fuck Beckoning You can see the gravity in your eye Pull pull pull Well you pull it down Close your eyes When you see my arms Down down down This is suicide And after the sunset By yourself Free Make it through the day Make it to this play I’ve gotta breathe that way Can’t feel my face That’s why you break to me Fuck what you say You’ll never sleep again Find yourself alone With no people you know Carrying all the world Burn them all BURN THEM ALL Push your body away and alone Push your body to feel strong I’ve seen friends come and go My hands are killing From hurting more Make it through the day Make it to this play I’ve gotta breathe that way DIE What you know What you said through your eyes You barely know What to say or discuss You’re fucking Kidding me with asking this shit You’re fucking kidding me Asking this SHIT Make it through the day Make it to this play I’ve gotta breathe that way Stop asking me this shit

Grief 04:15
Trust You held my hand Until it broke I fabricated your love For you You loved only yourself That’s you I locked away Our eternal link I sacrificed Unknowingly I did what I had to do Nothing more Nothing less It wasn’t betrayal That’s what came next All your strength Pushing me Off On The ice floe GONE This isolation Has dried me to a husk I’m paralyzed Bound to this spot Light always fading Like dusk Haunted Memories spur action within Leap into the freezing water Use death as a linchpin System shocked But I’m driven by a feeling That’s beyond physical limits Breathing liquid Is it emotion Or a soul That leaves Yet stays I’ll emerge onto land as a ghost The weight of which Leaves prints in the snow I’m coming back Now I swear I’m coming back Daddy’s coming back Now UNSTOPPABLE There is no hesitation For the destination Only determination Pushing and pulled by grief Marking its presence beneath

Vacant 03:46
Count them down The meaningless seconds These moments of emptiness They have become My existence Take it from me This breath that just won’t cease Please take it from me This useless life All of my pain All of my sorrow All of my rage My love FALSE My passion DEAD My purpose LOST Eyes vacant And now I am utterly alone Without saying goodbye Trapped in a hell That is all my own And I’ve tried to forget But there’s too much regret To see past this sunset Cold sweat Mixes in with the red Contort The heart Split mine apart Noiseless cries Mouth stuck wide Vacant eyes Blank inside

Mortal Beast 04:08
TEAR Tear a division in my heart TEAR Tear my mind apart Now what choice do I choose? It seems like either way (this way / that way) Either way I lose Out on something Good or evil overtaking Growing power inwardly Cementing what is believed Love or hate Concentrates Arrogating morality Now you’re aligning with the thoughts Your freedom rots No matter what you sought Ultimately You’re just a mortal beast To be ridden mercilessly Maximum speed Gallop until your feet both bleed Bleed out until your soul’s released Warring These voices scream within The grey envelopes me And makes the options blend Clashing These voices scream within The pressure crushes me And makes my ethics bend New decisions every day Consequences every way Everything there is to say Swelling in my tongue But my determination’s made I’m slaving for the sacred light There’s nothing to it But to buck up And just do it Now it’s yours… So… How will you live your life?

The Cost 03:15
Chaos and calamity Converging on my move Through my mind Through my hands Burdening the freedom brings Constraints that I behoove From inside As a man… Is this really all up to me? Or… Is this a fixed destiny? Down another day Down another day Down another day (another day down) Down another day Down the spiral Of denial Just stop it Stop it Stop the lies This is the cost You must pay For living life your way This is the cost For the decisions made And I’ll see it to the end Crush my skull Break my bones Till they won’t mend Again Face-planting myself (like I need some help) Into the grindstone I’m just etching off my face A trade-off for the vice you chase Everyday I'm cursing through this hell Everyday I'm burning Everyone can blame someone else But this all falls on me This is the cost For living life my way This is the cost For the decisions made And I’ll repent and regret And realize that it’s all just the same So I’ll see it to the end Break my bones Until they won’t mend Now accept it This is life Or reject it Push a bullet Past the back of your eyes

Mine 02:57
To whom I am dearly bound Hear my inmost truths You are my love… Who drowns me in HATE You are my strength… WHO ENFEEBLES ME You’re my refuge… WHO EXHAUSTS ME You are my light… THAT BLINDS THE WAY YOU ARE MINE You are my love… Who drowns me in hate You’re my soulmate… Who incompletes me You are my choice… That takes me over You are mine

Embraced 04:31
Walking forward I find myself back again To the place I swore I'd never return I'd act shocked But where else Would I end up I never learn I believe in delusions I breathe in lies You curse my presence Yet you still Hold me Arms around my neck Dying in this wreck Doomed I'm lost in the void Till I am destroyed Cold How can a lover's touch bring no warmth? This mesh of flesh belies the hate Purely carnal Our souls' bond disintegrates Ripping off my own skin To escape your grip But even at a distance You keep me mentally sick Sick Puking Shitting Sick Your embrace is lethal This hug that brings no love Every word spoke is deceitful Placing a blade above Me The beheaded fool I was just a fucking tool Hold me Kill me Arms around my neck Dying in this wreck ARMS AROUND MY NECK DYING IN THIS WRECK Walking forward I find myself back again To the place I swore I'd never return I'd act shocked But where else Would I end up I never learn Years pass My face has crumbled Rotted away No longer recognizable Too far in decay ...yet you still hold me

There’s not a thin line Between love and hate They bleed together They amalgamate Into something of which Words can’t even describe Poisoning my blood Stop-starting my heart Corrupting my mind Torturing my soul Killing me from the inside I’m crying out from the depths The depths of whatever is left I’ve fallen down to the dregs The way I live I might as well be dead BE DEAD Every waking moment I feel your eyes Boring through my skull Followed by your evil smirk Foaming with blackmail Fatality lurks With every step I’m reduced to a slave Pitiful Inept Or I can die my way You can’t kill me If I’m already dead FUCK YOU There’s not a thin line Between love and hate They bleed together They amalgamate I’m fingering the trigger I’m seeing the end I’m squeezing the trigger I’ve become the end

Renascence 03:34
Kill all emotion Let logic dictate What must be done Eviscerate All Impaired hope No influence Internal renascence Intently My brain rearranges Removing inutile thoughts Pushing them out Callously My heart exchanges The caustic love that I wrought For an emotive drought I’m leaving it all behind The bitter anguish in the old design I’m reclaiming my mind A painful purge As feelings diverge I bleed And scream BLEED & SCREAM And now That I’m thoroughly numb Healing has finally begun So I bandage My battered soul We’re separated But now I am whole I bandage my soul We’re separated But now I am whole

Effloresce 02:22
(instrumental)
12.
Dragged By the hooks in my skin Unconsciously Sporting a big shit-eating grin As the metal runs through me I cry out But I’m just Meat for another Led to the slaughter Throat cut Upside down There’s no feeling There’s nothing left None at all Numbered to be exploited A system of leeches Swollen on stolen blood Withered our bodies drop But they can’t get inside of my mind They can ravage my brain But never my mind NEVER MY MIND And I’ll decide When to give up my life When to lay down and die We run away We run away forever Inside ourselves Where nothing else matters We stay inside ourselves Till we’re forced out of ourselves Adrift in the cosmos Birth to Death to Birth to Death… Tortured gratuitously Divided and maligned Manipulated Into fratricide Dragged By the hooks in my skin Unconsciously Sporting a big shit-eating grin As the metal runs through me I cry out But I’m just meat Chop chop chop All chopped up Shorn and torn To feed the beast Cut cut cut Busted guts Threaded Into the machine The reality of Hell It’s not after we die It’s right now LIVING HELL WE LIVE IN HELL We run away We run away forever Inside ourselves We run away We run away forever Inside ourselves Where nothing else matters We stay inside of ourselves Till we’re forced out of ourselves Forever

Exorcism 04:57
Down In this miserable hole Calamity carves my soul Deep and slow The knife goes The hard serrated edge Assures no relief The hard serrated edge Reminds me what I am The whipping boy Beat till I’m destroyed Yet here I am still hanging on Tired love that keeps staying strong Despite everything that goes wrong Exorcised through song It’s the lies With your eyes It’s this mix That kills me Why am I still here? WHY AM I STILL HERE? For the parts of me That mean more Than anything It’s the lies With your eyes It’s this mix That kills me Yet here I am still hanging on Tired love that keeps staying strong Despite everything that goes wrong Exorcised through song Cauterize the wound REOPEN Realize the futility Accept that it’s never-ending Cycle through the suffering In my mind… All thoughts on fire In due time… I’ll fall and falter
