Campfire Retribution 01:42
lyrics
you failed hard, duties disavowed you let him drown if you cared enough just to pay attention i wouldn't have to hunt you in revenge this blood curse is mine lurid affairs i don't care i just want revenge suffer my spite for your negligence rectified and motivated by a life cut short dockside decapitated my life support keep it raining down wash away their crimes sweep it under dying leaves retribution for her Awakened to revenge with no remorse Awakened to revenge with no remorse Awakened to revenge with no remorse Awakened to revenge with no remorse

Sam 03:12
lyrics
this season never started with an off day splintered air piercing lungs a hallowed season awaits respite to a burdensome repetitive haze entwined tales memorialize a haunted night bland existence now a bloody sight a chill in the air a hideous bus ride tainted treats blood spews on this Halloween night diminutive body solicitous of tradition nightmare to those who refuse to abide by unspoken law (shrouded in burlap) as the light starts to fall back an idealistic embrace of the past ends in cohesion and collapse play it back like no holiday before it we try too hard to caress this night with morbid scars when the origins glowed of bright fear and excitement long lost now we lift the dead diminutive body solicitous of tradition nightmare to those who refuse to abide by unspoken law (shrouded in burlap) we revel in fright on this Halloween night

Overlook 02:56
lyrics
visage of trauma encapsulated by snow and pulsing echoes menacing tower home to despicable acts of prolicide (an existence to imbibe by) drawn to the ice and the allure of rising flames of comfort ire of a dry life feigned by despicable thoughts of filicide (a sick and vengeful pride) isolation formed a maladaptive defense a final effort to exist within the walls of the violent Rants of an Egoist Deranged by Rage Unstable and Murderous ripping up the page what choice but to write it over and over again prison of his will and perception of a power that would buckle to my own shining potential home to connections with a frightening other side (a sick and vengeful life) isolation formed a maladaptive defense a final effort to exist within the walls of the violent Rants of an Egoist Deranged by Rage Unstable and Murderous ripping up the page what choice but to write it over and over again

See You Next Wednesday 02:13
lyrics
flesh and arteries pop as they rupture jaws ripping as they intensify the pressure what a sound it made stomach fell into my bowels chest ripped, tight grip holy shit what a fucking experience loose lipped my mind slipped into a riotous and laughable conflict of two minds of two bodies one of privilege and arrogant living of two minds of two bodies the other of disavowed pleasure and feeling naked in a cage laugh as i rush to the fantasy of safety in your living room what a sound you made stomach emptied on the floor chest ripped, tight grip red spit, outer body experience loose lipped my mind slipped into a riotous and laughable conflict of two minds of two bodies one of privilege and arrogant living of two minds of two bodies the other of disavowed pleasure and feeling (don't sleep) just eat, murder and pillage retribution for the trauma you permitted to flourish following a pattern of refusing to own it intruded on the balance that existed in the village (don't sleep) just eat, murder and pillage retribution for the trauma you permitted to flourish following a pattern of refusing to own it intruded on the balance that existed in the village (don't sleep) just eat, murder and pillage retribution for the trauma you permitted to flourish following a pattern of refusing to own it intruded on the balance that existed in the village

Disembodied 02:23
lyrics
innocence as a raging myth i heard a rising argument the most powerful resentment assuming i'm incapable of it of nightmarish and vulgar displays of the devil building fear and disdain as an infernal power takes me faceless artist watches me as i fall deeper, faster to a hell my rage takes me to a place you're going to want to forget brutalizing with science strapped to a diabolic harness take me reticence for an aging myth slumped over and lifeless by the most powerful malevolence assuming i'm incapable of it of nightmarish and vulgar displays of the devil absorbing fear and disgust as an infernal power takes me faceless viewers watching me as i fall deeper, faster in the night my faith takes me eighty feet to an agonizing end embodiment of the eucharist i become one with the wind take me

Locks on the Morgue 02:54
lyrics
no experiment is a failure bulging, bleeding eyes scribe the outcome every moral moment costs me time time is data and data is life or at least an approximation thereof chest compressions, a barbaric procedure delaying inevitable fate saved only by my syringe observe postmortem phenomenon question theories on brain death hypothesize reanimated flesh experiment on the recently dead miskatonic massacre, biomedical sage unfettered by your morality, blinded by objectivity unhindered by my brutality total brain death means nothing to me prepped the patient with a shovel to the skull your appointment in my laboratory this morbid menagerie hippocratic oath foresworn, this new biology is born reigniting the dead your casket is a bag of biohazardous waste observe cyclopean chimera question the effects on a living host hypothesize reanimated flesh experiment with a disembodied head miskatonic massacre, biomedical sage unfettered by your morality, blinded by objectivity unhindered by my brutality total brain death means nothing to me as i walk into the brave new world of frozen potential you'll find i'm the reason you need locks on the morgue

Window Portait 03:11
lyrics
earthly forms we take in this unfamiliar world not a disguise but a metamorphosis ancient malignance adopts twisted ecology electric storms echo our ethereal home hungry appendages penetrate your sanctuary muscle and sinew, an arrogant child, a bloodstained appetizer peeling thin-skinned unarmored prey it is night when we raid envenomate arachnomorphic ambush, human eggsac rupturing spilling progeny as your witch vomits ritualistic savagery unknown hunger your bodies will never sate consume flesh earthly maggots will never taste blistering boiling flesh, cracked bones leak marrow ignited, now charred skin calcified a grotesque, withering effigy fed dislocating invertebrates it is night when we raid eviscerate your son’s brains paint a portrait on the window your greatest sin was not saving his flesh for us

Singaya Party (The Bite) 01:30
lyrics
clear the dance floor crank the volume tonight's the night that we forget all of our problems six ingredients to unwind your stress oppression, failure, debauch, defeat, sorrow and death her opaque eyes stare into mine hypodermic needle splits the septum in twain amputating welcome party as death surrounds him lawnmower blades spin remove the face tear the ribs out a hollow chest amputating welcome party as death surrounds him lawnmower blades spin a soup of pus and emulsified human remains

Fowl 03:19
lyrics
her ambiguous existence a blank slate of visible unease dedicated to a new life of nefarious deed (self serving outburst, forget what they need) once a victim to another time now decrying misogyny and all of their lives taking flight on a motel migration (showering her past away, molts to become anew) hair sticking to the wall life spiraling with her blood down the drain turned your back on your life (demise) when your back meets their knife (recoiled in fright) taxidermy creates permanence and i've got a feeling that no one here is innocent she's harmless as a stuffed bird taxidermy creates permanence and i've got a feeling that no one here is innocent there is nothing safe about a cotton filled corpse tonight once a victim now eternally scarred and seasoned in the act of calculated homicide (just so) cold and damp like a grave without her hair sticking to the wall life spiraling with her blood down the drain turned your back on his life (mother) now her back meets your knife (exposed in the light) maternal figure fostered a psychotic defense an unconscious effort to deny the acts he committed he's harmless as a putrid fly taxidermy creates permanence and i've got a feeling that no one here is innocent there is nothing sane about a bloated, water logged corpse

Dinner Conversation 03:13
lyrics
it's a ghoulish way to cope digging up the dead a manic terrorizing matriarch fixated on a severed head it's a family you've grown idealized in your head a violent death brings you to your knees in a flailing, pathetic attempt a dry and wasted breath to find a voice who could agree there's a way of speaking with the dead while the child surviving in the house that you built explodes in anxious dread what a despicable vision watch as you're now untethering a new life vicious in a dim light what a petrifying sight capable of vile things she would have admired blankly staring at the prospect of a nihilistic way of dealing with torment embracing the glow of violent disinhibition liberated though headless there isn't any other way to live this is it a prototypical and anxious life shattered by her severed head in a family that you've grown miniaturized in your head dissociated from your guttural screams in a gasping and desperate attempt a dry and wasted breath to find a voice that could agree this was just a horrific accident while a parent terrorizing the house that she built explodes in manic frenzy my helplessness is building watch as i'm now untethering a new life vicious in a warm light what a horrifying sight capable of vile things she would have admired blankly staring at the prospect of a nihilistic way of dealing with torment embracing the glow of moral depravity liberated though desolate
