wait your turn to become nothing
hand in hand
the pope
the emperor
the king
the laborer
the mother
the child
tread together to the grave
wait your turn to become nothing
the three cadavers said to the living
"what we were, you are, what we are, you will be"
a grim sarabande of skeletons
they're coming to take you away
remember.
that you.
must die.
remember.
remember.
remember.

Burnout
02:23
|
|
||
I will languish by the side of an empty highway
until the magpies have taken my eyes and the crows have picked me clean
the worms and vermin dominate my senses
the sun will lay a veneer on my bones on my bones as white as the teeth of the rich and famous
as white as the teeth of the rich and famous
I'm not going to burn out, i am going to fade away

I am no longer among the living
brothers will kill brothers
twenty eight hundred minutes in purgatory
the healer knows when it comes
the sheep praise the mystic
the weary question the charlatan
rejoice, repent, attain divine grace
follow the staircase notes
he's the devil
you reap what you sow

Writhing in Ecstasy
03:50
|
|
||
It's only a facade of language
everything is under control
the holy ghost speaks through him
the holy ghost
his mind is crystal clear
his mind is crystal clear
the holy ghost speaks through him
helpless, frenzied, undone, subdued
a warm light takes his body
others chant in the unknown tongue
they lift
their arms
towards
the sky
their upper torsos writhing in ecstasy
"this is for the prayers we don't know
to pray"

White Guilt
04:53
|
|
||
i saw over time that the gallows began to sag from the weight of the guilt of it all
destiny manifest in blood on your forehead
abide as you drown, clutching their anchors
the gallows
they buckle
under the weight
the gallows
they buckle
under the weight
under the weight
under the guilt

the oroborous finally ate its own head
loved ones become nobodies
a shadow of guilt, cast on the fuck-ups
two feet in the grave
bury my head
bury my head
cower
cower
morals get you nowhere fast
lie, cheat, steal
the glass might be half full, but I paid full price
give me my fucking money back

Children Having Children

The new and everlasting covenant
the man promises anything
he gives nothing
he takes everything
stable another young mare
take her
she is in debt to you now
take her
she is in debt to you now
stealing her glow
savoring her youth
brood of traded souls
bartered off for good standing
stable another young mare

Barren
02:41
|
|
||
we deserve nothing
I can live with that
Better off trudging alone
alone
Carrying your expectations on your back, they don't care about you
Embody the discomfort
We all love to feel like shit
We all love to feel like shit
Satisfied with the fact
I've been and gone nowhere
Been and gone nowhere
I've been and gone nowhere
I've been and gone.

The Skinny
03:57
|
|
||
beg your soul to come back
you smoked up all of your conscience
picking your skin, exhausting your being
chewing your fingers raw
the mark of the dissenter
you smoked your mother's dreams
the mark of the dissenter
the plague of the black lung ghosts
ride the light-bulb
consume every thing
regret regret regret regret
regress
regret
regress
regret
regress
regret
regress
regret

Feral
05:07
|
|
||
the familiar taste of iron; yet again succumbed to the moment
the trash you hear is just your reflection spat out the mouth of the deadbeat
the oppression mounts
chest collapses
anxiety reigns
spat out the mouth of the deadbeat
oppression mounts
anxiety reigns
anxiety reigns
the
deserters
are
in
wild abandon
my nails break, dragging my shell from the cave
only to concede
give up
give up
give
up
