Frailty
02:48
|
|||
Trying desperately not to fall apart
The warmness of your embrace
Shatters my frozen heart
Trying desperately to hold onto your hand
As I’m falling further down this pit of anguish
Reaching out for a sign that you’re still here
After my world came crumbling
My sanity came crashing
Pacing back and forth
Watching the shadows dance
Or is it just my mind
I feel it slipping away
Scraping through broken glass
Sifting passed fractured memories
My fingers are numb from the cold
Sever the pain away
Stop this
End this
Look me in the eyes
Lie to me again and say that it’ll be alright
Lying in a coffin for two
All alone with my thoughts
Our souls are entwined
Yet I will not share this pain
I will cast you down onto a bed of thorns
Burning the effigy of your beauty
We are meant to be but the blood won’t stop
Broken hearts melt in the gloom

Drowning in Distress
03:48
|
|

Eyes roll back as the lights fade out
Turn away as tears begin to fall
No resurrections, no weightless lies
This is no paradise
Watch your step around false pretenses
The lies crack beneath your feet
Giving way to your facade
Begging for the truth from your serpent tongue
Watching and waiting
For the day when you give back.
You’ll bring about the end of another life
And stake the knife into my heart
No substance, no meaning
No point in living a lie
Bow down to your false idols
And choke on the words you recite
Living through agony, watching you bathe in euphoria, while the rest of us drown in distress
Waiting for a sign
Only sorrow left
Only the pain remains
This suffering will give way to our resistance
Watch the colors fade from grey into a brand new vibrance
There is no paradise as long as the wretched still torment
There will be no mercy
Sharpen the blades and let them fall
Enough is enough
No more of your authority
No more of your charade
No more false promises
No prayer will save you now
Say goodnight motherfucker
Enough is enough
Tired of this so called “life”
Choke on your fascist lies
There’ll be no flowers on your grave

Cowardice
02:27
|
|||
You mean nothing
You live a worthless life
All you do is spew hate and intolerance
So look me dead in the eyes and say it to my face
Your bigotry will mean nothing when your teeth are pressed to the curb
There’s no escape from this, no god will save you now
Can’t run away
Can’t hide
Face me you fucking coward
Enough of your ignorance
Enough of your white pride
Run away with your tail tucked between your legs
Cry out and no one answers
No more of your prejudice
The time has come for our resistance
You’ll feel the pain we’ve felt
Endless suffering for you
Can’t run away
Can’t hide from this
Can’t escape our revenge
The time has come, no more tears
Open your eyes
Your hatred will mean nothing
When the blade slashes your throat
You queerphobic, racist
You fascist, fucking pig

Nailing the Coffin Shut
01:52
|
|||
Nothing changes as our hearts stop
Slipping into a fractured state
Trying to tame the agony
I can’t take this
Just want to scream in pain
Scratching and tearing
Through the endless heartbreak
The numbness has become permanent
(Something) stop this
(Give me) another hit
(Stop it) just leave me
(End it)drop dead
(Too many)dark thoughts
(Crowding) my head
(Crying) out for help
(A bullet) to their heads
Thrown to the wolves
That are at the door
Sharpen your pretty teeth and
Don’t let them bury you
No one will help this
We must end this
Tired of suffering
In this surrounding hell
They’ll keep you down
Until your final breath
Bash back and silence them
Of their ignorance

Bloodstains
03:31
|
|||
Waiting for the end, to see you fall
Discomfort, and anguish, are what you’ve cursed me with
I can’t see, I’m blinded
Blinded by the atrophy
No more of this, we’ll stop this
Your cruelty will come to an end
Press the knife deeper into your ice cold heart
Feel the weight of your world shattering
Waiting nervously
Biting my tongue
You’ll get what you deserve
If it means the death of me
Enough of your lies, enough of your bigotry
I’ll bury you with my hands, and nail your coffin shut
You’ve caused so much pain
Now you’ll understand
The pain we’ve truly felt
As the blade punctures
You liar
I’ll stitch your mouth shut
So you can’t spread hate
Nothing will remain
All that’s left is dirt
Covered in blood
Left to rot in the dark
A stain to wash away
You’ll have no funeral
No flowers on your grave
Nothing to remember you
Just your bloodstains
This cannot be undone
Remove the veil of lies
Burn it all to embers
As I watch your memory fade
