Vigil 02:16
(Instrumental)

Our idols will ignore the screams for our preservation This sickness erodes our purpose His mind has sacrificed the memories it once held inside Their blackened tongues and their gestures consumed him alive The abomination will rise again Fuck this place I'll breathe a sigh of relief when everything stops breathing The sound of screams will all fall silent onto my deaf ears We had it all but we squandered it away What did we gain? We are the waking dead And tonight my resurrection will signal the fucking end of the race Show me your teeth you coward Four fucking years you've been on my mind I want blood for redemption, one body is never enough Internally bleeding as the blade slithers towards your neck Suspense is the distance between blade and flesh This world will be my hunting ground I will no longer remain dormant Torment, they cry out in pain, their faces contort in agony My eyes begin to dilate, my hands shake and my breath escapes Memories begin to be erased Trapped in my mind with no retreat As I begin to lose my mind my body is rotting from the inside Deep within my skin they hide, demons of angelic design The abomination will rise again

Lycan 05:31
Am I even human? I've become a monster Am I even human? I'd like to see what lies underneath the skin By now the virus is rampant through my veins Was I manufactured from a cancer cell? Or is my life a reflection that stares back at me? Stale and weak flesh sack of bones and shit Should I slit my throat and put an end to all of it? The ones who did this to me surely can’t be human They inject my mind with images of torture Weak flesh sack of bones and shit Should I just slit my throat and put an end to all of it? Bones extending, conscience fleeting, replaced by my appetite The night regurges the foulest creatures They feast on flesh of the weak and blind Embodiment of the pain I've suffered Eviscerated from your cunt to your face A stark reminder the world is ending I am the anti-christ At last the moon shall bloom It’s gentle light consumes me Where do you go when the sky collapses? Where do you fucking hide, when the very thing that keeps you alive is the thing that's killing you inside? The sickness lies and waits It takes control of me I am that unhinged, insecure motherfucker that’s coming down your street A new born mentality will claim my every waking thought Entombed within a shell of never ending hatred The cycle will not end until their blood covers my hands The world will be reborn through mass global bloodshed At the end of this life I will find home The hunger has enslaved me I see no release Trapped for eternity The hunger has enslaved me The thirst will forever call

Red Wedding 05:05
Sealed in place, a cold tune plays An omen for wolves who whimper Screams fill the sky Their movements so sporadic, yet flames don't dare to flicker A king is forced to witness his betrothed, stabbed to death Cold blades part the womb open, the unborn prince spills out His army reduced to meat they feasted on I am not love I am not salvation I bring the stench of death My name will be retold in their blood All children will be crippled Your crops will yield no growth The world is plunged in darkness as the sun refuses to show A king is forced to witness his dynasty turn to ash His throne is now a pyre his people will roast upon On my own accord I've unsurfaced my parasitic ways I am the burden on your kingdom of princes I am the burden on your kingdom I am the burden on your people Sealed in place, a cold tune plays Blood will stain the earth for eras Hope lost in a mother's eyes Unveil steel, all men must die Sealed in place, a cold tune plays An omen for wolves who whimper Sealed in place, a cold tune plays Our great leader has become a martyr Mass graves only two feet deep and incinerate the bodies Am I a masochist because I find so much joy in this? Infatuated as the skin is peeling off their spines Dissected and still breathing, your insides are on display

Oculus 07:34
Where were all of the shepherds when the sky was devoured? There lies a sickness embedded deep within this plutocracy that reaps the benefits of our sorrows All for monetary gain Incarcerate the populace They will try to distort your view Their love for power precedes the need for our race to survive We are all condemned They will bury us alive All will be condemned They will bury us alive Monuments constructed by the oppression that they symbolise All will be condemned by the hypocrisy They hold justice over your head like a crown of thorns for eternity All will be condemned by the hypocrisy They hold justice over your head like a crown of thorns We are the first of a brand new era Our hands will forever be blood-stained They imprisoned our minds But chains rust over time When we find what we seek These shackles will break We are trapped in an ignorant sleep Their walls cave in under the weight Shepherd the weak into their own containment Weave the web of corrupt policies Tax their resources to keep them all preserved We are nothing more than cattle to be slaughtered We are trapped in an ignorant sleep Their walls cave in under the weight Empowerment of the people returns the light to a darkened world in suffering We've been struggling to breathe Too long have we been held down and profited from This race will bare scars on the earth But when the last tree falls they'll realise that we can’t consume currency We will be the victims of a corporate genocide We are the first of a brand new era We are the first of a brand new era of corrupt supremacy and reign We are the first of a brand new fucking era of corrupt supremacy and reign Mankind will be the unravelling of it’s own thread
