The Virus 05:56
lyrics

No more soldiers have fallen on the battlefield Oh what weapons have won this war Population has gone into remission Deadly reborn become our means to live Animal and man infecting under the sun in moderation Barely had enough time to run away Sleds and shovels they glide over your grave Weep for no one instead I pull the trigger Land mines ignite only to erase it all Animal and man infecting under the sun in moderation Shed no evidence of evil it has no face at all Bred to tranquilize the weakest of obvious disease I’ve left behind all knowledge of man and war cannibal fever has got my tongue Only to be left here feeding

Draygo 03:19
lyrics

Solid and contained like a feather on the water Could not feel any pain Breathless as I wait for a dying hand to reach out bleeding When all colors have no shape and cold steel has it’s way Drag me under without permission Tired I still lay in a watered down diluted chamber now completely drained of waste Another one awakens when I seal the weary feeling in my head it’s all I need Drag me under with all feelings dead Only motivation is to be alive is to keep alive Rise drag me under drag me down

Broken Beak 09:16
lyrics
buy track
Reveal the sky as open eyes fill with dust to the lids Attempt to heal the raging waves as they spread over all we know Treated with ease bound and equally severed from a body I’ve been morbidly tangled around Let me live let me wander into nothing as I fly to the glow of the moon You read my mind absolutely from between us and the rain step outside the lightning straight into thunder pressing on and always under the wings of a healer you read my mind Realign the eyes with our moon rolling back like caving walls Too afraid to light the midnight sky we must find another way Silhouettes sharpened by the glass inside my eyes Take a closer peek This oceans run too deep Too deep to breathe to wash away our name Too long to run to fight through this unarmed Too late to decide which lonely wave to roll in Turning back once crossed my mind Nothing but bone dry tables cracking my beak on the empty skulls Covered in rage leaking of mold Burrowing through what became of the aftermath Chipping away cracking to pieces Driven to put all the bones in their place My beak is broken now

Tire Burn 04:04
lyrics
buy track
Gonna get my gasoline And I race across these blackened streets Death is just a dream when you fall asleep behind the wheel Four tires gripping the asphalt with absolute speed Carving the streets, burning the tires down The smell of gas lingers I’m gonna burn my gasoline when I race across these blackened streets Speed is just a must I’d rather be ashes then dust Blowing away in the wind I’ll never race again Burning these tires down But I’ll never move Cuz I’m just sittin’ out back with the gas rag in my hand

Earthy 05:42
lyrics

Stray downwind blindfolded and terrified Crossbones fine woven may come and take over Headstones start to blend together Sudden movements are a retreat to the bottom A wide load of semi sharpened misery placed high and low and far too deep to elevate Strong cold threads of ivy always winding down on me Fell into oblivion never ending Still there’s time to make amends with sage and clover Nailed down I can’t pretend to grow I won’t descend too low Here the clocks that tick are the stones grinding forward I’m saying forget all the promises I made out to harm you And I can easily avoid you again and again light the path that I’m running in circles around These roots below me pull together with a face of possession But I don’t wanna be a part of the reason you won’t grow it’s killing me And I feel I cannot hide from a soul that’s too far gone All the changing winds of time will always win These leaves above me flow forever in a cloud of infection And I feel I cannot hide from a soul that’s too far gone All the changing winds of time will always win Here the clocks that tick are the stones grinding forward Here the blood that drips from the fangs override me I won’t descend Weight of the wind directs me, resurrects my soul Weight of the wind corrects me, resurrects my soul Stare into me make me bleed curiously Stare into me make me bleed Into oblivion I won’t descend too low

Ogre Ram 05:32
lyrics

Had I shed a lasting thread of skin I’d be ok Pulling through the obstacle of a body in refrain I’d be safe and sound instead of buried up to my neck in doubt Call it lies call it coincidence impaired Feeding through the obvious you won’t feel it coming near and it will dive so deep into your motor lungs and bring you to an end On your knees stop following me You were there to burn till the end Hand on my heart eyes to the sky Slipped through my fingers left to die On your feet stop crawling to me I am here to prevent the fear Hand on my heart eyes to the sky Slipped through my fingers crawling down my spine Here to remind us there’s no other way under the eyes of the beast and his prey You will make the same mistake Falling under a spell in disgrace you will make the same mistake The ogre rising to the edge begins to twist and grind you Still holding on to holding in the end will find you anyway You will make the same mistake The dead will come the beast will bite Feeding them wont hide you Instead of calling out their name hold your hand over the flame On your knees stop following me You were there to burn till the end Hand on my heart eyes to the sky Slipped through my fingers crawling down my spine Here to remind us there’s no other way under the eyes of the beast and his prey The ogre rising understands fear is thick enough to feel On your knees

Banshee 09:13
lyrics
buy track
You knew the wood was old and black and cold and that darkness would never remove We have a longing hunger so unmoving the fear is so alive So in that moment a light reveals a trail of blood all eyes on you all around you you don’t belong here the fear makes blinded pray of you The lion, a deer in the headlights what he’s become Run forth and bow down By the weak and young you’re roaring Broken you lie bare naked, starving without your pride You won’t survive with all your eyes afraid to see You hear the banshee, you watch her dance, she’s singing for you oh can’t you see now, your fear will become you The fear will become you Forward we run close to the edge of the boldest fire Torn from focus Heavenly calm flames in the window tempt you to come home Out on the edge where the scream stays howling in motion flaunting its grace, silencing hope

Mudslide 05:22
lyrics

Fell underneath the weight of the crash Desperately awakened by the meaning of death gently following slowly swallowing sink my teeth into your elevated soul I once knew Taste more than a peeling of flesh I could own easy borrowing deeply sorrowing worms that never reach you The stranger inside you belongs to me I loved you before I met you This weather so chosen for us to mate It softens the ground for my weight Stay underground, I won’t rest until I lay with you, my hunger lust for your lack of life I claim innocent and underrated till you bring me back to the vultures I’ll wait And under my skin lies the fate of your Hyde The beauty inside drills another hole of shame into your head The blood slithers through my teeth gallons away cuz feeding deaths a part of me now To obtain to assure I’m breathing is to say feeding deaths a part of me Now I am above the mound of bones Replace my hunger with more from below Easy borrowing deeply sorrowing sink my teeth into you Stay underground, I won’t rest until I lay with you, my hunger lust for your lack of life I claim innocent and underrated till you bring me back
