The Rupture

Hidden hands working their ways
Into another collapse
We’re swallowed whole in the process
Stacking hate upon hate
Whitewashed salvation
Paranoia secured
Calibrating the moment
Searing through you
Forked tongues slither slowly
Into newborn virgin ears
Like a cancerous promise
Consuming what’s real
Whitewashed salvation
Paranoia secured
Calibrating the moment
Searing through you
Feel the hammers crush you
Forked tongues slither slowly
Into newborn virgin ears
Like a cancerous promise
Consuming what’s real

Maintained to malfunction
Grounded in poisoned beliefs
This time there is no escape
On the skin of our teeth
Ungrave all the bodies
The burned limbs of your lies
Oblivious visions forever lurking inside
With minds shut off like switches on a rusty machine
Feeding the nightmare of your barren dreams
Disciples melting the sky
As blackness turns to your eyes
And behind fates reflection
There is nothing for you
Take your leper messiahs
The foul taste of your truth
And I hope you find comfort
When it weighs down on you
And you sink
Maintained to malfunction
Grounded in poisoned belief
This time there is no escape
On the skin of our teeth

It’s a long way down
A steep narrowed path
With walls closing in
And apocalypse upon us
Again you wage this war
On uncharted ground
So cycles stay complete
Until we hit rock bottom
Without a sound
I just can’t escape
The razor cuts both ways
And through the eye of the beholder
Nothing but contempt for fucked up your ways
Fear will preserve what’s left
Every move a fight inside your traps
With walls closing in
Demons timing their attack
It’s a long way down

We set up our beds in hell tonight
And the only way out is through
Breath in the dust of our souls tonight
And the only way out is through
Along dried out riverbanks we walk
and the only way out is through
As stale water runs down our throats
the only way out is through
In times where blood is cheap as wine
The only way out is through
I chose the path less travelled
And the only way out is through
The only way out is through
The only way out is through
The only way out is through

Slipping Away
02:31
|
|

|
Wide eyes are burning
Set to destroy
All that’s left again
Is to save my soul
Corrupted and broken
A gallows walk on our knees
From high towers vultures are watching
In death life is deceived
Annihilate each sound you make
Pouring from your gaping mouths
It’s getting harder to ignore
Each day you double down your hate
Justified entirely
As if this has ever changed
And I’m slipping away
Can’t give it no peace,
The pressure is on
Becoming one with the crime
only to prove you wrong
