"Cut the Skin Shut"
Just look at me
Pathetic, begging for reprieve
Is there hope for a fucking wretch like me?
I scream on the inside, I fucking scream
Is no one listening?
I'm dying inside.
Where is the forgiveness?
Which I once offered
Where is my redemption?
Hidden from sight
And now I suffer
For my transgressions
And now I suffer
For the past that haunts me
It inhabits my soul
These wounds, they run too deep
Cut the skin shut

"Resurgence"
You thought you could crush me
You thought you could tear me down
I held my hand out, you smacked it away
Now I'm getting up on my own
I stand alone on my own two feet
I will leave nothing but ashes in my wake
These obstacles, they mean nothing to me
Mere objects to be destroyed and forgotten
And now I'm born anew
Ready to tear this fucking world apart
I am resurrected
Nothing can stop me now
You're just another blank face in the crowd
Another failure to quell my rise
You lost your faith, you turned away
You tried to help them beat me down
I kept you close
to watch for your betrayal
And now I see that I was right
Why put my faith in a fucking snake?
Too many deceptions to count
I fell sick from your Judas Kiss
And now I'm born anew
Ready to tear this fucking world apart
I am resurrected
Nothing can stop me now

"Skinless"
Go
Please go away
I will hurt you like they've hurt me
Expectations I've placed upon you, you can't meet
I want perfect, something you can never be
An atrophic progression of your existence
I will leave you a cold, empty, lifeless shell
Save yourself, Get away
Protect yourself from me
I will break you
The life you've envisioned will never be
Your hopes, your dreams
They will decay
You will become nothing
Wasting your life away
Save yourself, get away
Your mental state triturating
You will suffer, you will languish
You will rot
You will rot with me!

Neurosis

|
"Neurosis"
These false transgressions against me.
Things in my mind that would drive me to kill.
These walls collapsing in on me.
Issues of doubt and self-control.
Sentiments, they do not matter
All I want now is revenge
Things inside provoke suspicion
Inspire hatred and hasten my end
The death of empathy.
A transformation to sociopath.
A life of wrongs done against me.
A hateful past that I just can't let go.
The things I've seen you can't imagine.
You don't know what I've gone through.
But I won't wallow in self-pity.
I'm sure the same could be said by you.

Severance

"Severance"
A meeting with blunt desistance
The common ground a cerebral malady
Drowning in contemplation of a new void to fill
My presence could never mend what's been shattered
Your presence could never mend all the fractures
I'm defective, You are broken
Despondency leads to this tide
Separated by time, Severed by distance
Pessimistic and sick at heart
This was not of my volition
Circumstances dictate I turn away
Leaving, never to return
I will stay away
I will stay away
My presence could never mend what's been shattered
My presence could never mend all the fractures
I'm defective, You are broken
And now we find ourselves parting in a world without end
There is nothing left, but to say goodbye forever

"Metaljuana"
A smokey cloud of elation
The death of urgency
Inhale deep, hold it in
Now all you have to do is release
I feel my worries melting away
Euphoria
I feel like the weight has been lifted
I feel like the world doesn't matter anymore
Euphoria
My friend in times of need
My guide to these blissful daytime dreams!
My imagination running wild
Pass me that shit, let me tak another hit
Oh, I'm stoned!
Why is my heart beating so fast?
Am I going to have a fucking heart attack?
What was that? Did you hear it?
I better go and check the door!
God damn, I'm so fucking hungry!
God damn, I'm so fucking high!

"Deception"
Deception
Now I don't know what's real anymore
A nightmare within a dream
I don't think I can feel anything
Nothing is what it seems
Being dragged into the darkness
It's all because of
Being dragged into the darkness
And it's all because of your lies
Your fucking lies
Used and left behind
Your own personal fool
Was this for your entertainment
Or out of necessity?
You'll be exposed for the filth that you are
You'll pay the price for the thing that you are
A vile parasite infesting this earth, my life!
Now crawl. Now plead.
Now beg. Now bleed!
Sufficed just to run and hide
but the blood soaked sands of time will reveal all your fucking lies
You cannot hide
All these lies
Now I don't know what's real anymore
A nightmare within a dream
I don't think I can feel anything
Nothing is what it seems
Being dragged into the darkness
It's all because of
Being dragged into the darkness
And it's all because of your lies

"Cimmerian Shade"
I am death waiting around the corner
I am sorrow hiding under the bed
I feel the cold of your lifeless body
And clench my hands around your fucking neck
There's no light at the end of the tunnel
No need to swim just fucking drown
I smile as I see you succumb
All your suffering will end now
When you find yourself alone at night
Waiting for this life to end
I'll tell you to end it now
I'll put that whisper into your ear
Don't wait for your life to get better
The worst form of human thought
Your struggle will soon be over
A culmination of your grievous years
Your life to be a distant thought
The fight draining from your tired body
Your life to be a distant thought
Sleep well for how hard you've fought
There's no light at the end of the tunnel
No need to swim just fucking drown
I smile as I see you succumb
All your suffering will end now
Persistence no longer an option
The will to carry on has faded away
I will guide you down a path without adversity
Moving close to your ear I will softly say...
There's no light at the end of the tunnel
No need to swim just fucking drown
I smile as I see you succumb
All your suffering will end now

"Imprisoned"
Slaves
You stare with empty eyes
Soulless automatons bleeding dry
Ignorant to your own demise
Bowing to the reptiles you worship
You can't see that you're nothing but a fucking peasant
Comprehend the life you have is owned by another
Your blood and sweat is their gold, your value a dollar sign
You're worth more dead than alive
Enjoy your fucking freedom
I smell the rotting flesh of a republic
A whole people down on its knees
So full of fear from the symptoms
You'll never understand the disease
You keep falling for the same tricks every time
It's all your fault. The willingness to believe their lies
There is no truth for you here, only deception
There is no good, only corruption remains
Follow the leader and find yourself falling off the cliff
Follow the demons and realize you haven't a soul left
You can't see that you're nothing but a fucking peasant
Comprehend the life you have is owned by another
Your blood and sweat is their gold. Your value a dollar sign
You're worth more dead than alive
Enjoy your fucking freedom
