Guillotine Twins
02:06
|
|||
Broke the noose – avoided the pyre
A barren plan to escape the mire
But your thoughts sink within
Drench you in guilt while you try to break free from sin
Reflected guillotine, take me where I need to be
Everything I despise I became
Slowly yet moving straight
as it made me a wraith

Scalp Them
00:59
|
|||
Extortion determines our kind
Among generations of rapists and murderers
We seek them as the reaper’s minions
and claim justice for their wrongs
Callous hordes looking or new blood
Scalp them for the skinless beings they are

Poverty of Existence
03:11
|
|||
A plague, spreading viciously as it reaps us as the anxious slithering worms we are
With the vultures scavenging through this infected world there’s no hope to be found
Trying to build a paved life while it’s being gnawed to shreds like a rope
Hating more than could be loved
All gifted the poverty of existence
We marked our own deaths
By trusting the few who survived
Through decades of liars
Yet we follow like herds of sheep
Awaiting the slaughter

Heiress
03:17
|
|||
A dying heart is the beginning of all knowledge
Yet we absorb, tend to replenish the hollow
Yet we know, it’s all a dead end we follow
And end up drowning, in mourned cold emptiness
Crawling out of that shallow womb, further into the depth
To unmask a forclaimed heiress, that has nothing left
|

Worn Out
01:48
|
|||
I descend into the darkest corners
to grieve and tear out the pain
But it’s fuelled with something more compelling
than just mourning the soul that’s been rotting away
The curse to carry the unbearable weight of someone invisible
Transparent as lucid dreams
Surviving with heavy gasps and staggering through thorns,
while being devoured by the screams
You wore me out like a disease

Solitary Realm
03:37
|
|||
Faith isn't fed by trust, it's the hope for humanity to be human and that's why you always lost
Everyone has a prosthetic face, it's only waiting
Your blood starts to boil, your guts start to melt
As the feeling to be alone compels you
The solitude can bring no harm, cause everyone dies alone
|

Among the Roaches
02:01
|
|||
Why do we roam out here?
I’m still floating in between restlessness and fear
cause they’re all on the loose,
betrayers and martyrs enjoying their parade
Let’s torche it before it’s too late
They march onward with teeth on tongues
I’ve had enough of this horror
Taking all that you love, all that you live for
Just to satisfy their hunger
So we hunt them down and behead the leader
