lyrics

Becoming your own slave - Shackled by afflicting shame - So sleepwalk through this - Drawn by an inviting illusion - A haunting mirage calls your name as you crawl across sands of flame - Reach into the water to cleanse the open wounds - The scathing you bear, it will remind you of what’s real - A sacrifice I promise you’ll feel - Trusted in only what you could afford to let go - (The traitor’s tongue swallows you whole) - You take this breath, why take this breath? - Color has run so far from here, we’ll all die alone - (Crippled victims beg for freedom in death) - They take this breath, why take this breath? - Lies and sorrow float through the air, but truth and happiness live inside you - Lies, sorrow - Tell me now, how does it feel? - Would you expect anything less from those who walk with death? - Those who left you blind, holding detest - Face and accept it - Never write around a fortune - Why? For this is what you will get - This is what you get - This is all yours to mend

They hold firm in their roots of death and thrash laced with solid grooves, harmonies, and soulful elements. Each record has proved to be harder and faster than its predecessor. ... more
