who will answer for the desolation of the earth and it's multitude humanity devoured, man turned vulture at the carcass of innocence like dogs begging for scraps the ritual of the damned to buy and to bleed their weary hearts dry a culture of decay's demise anything to gain profit anything to further the cause of imminent destruction of the world nailing themselves to their cross no sympathy, for the annihilation of the guilty the masses suffer in silence in martyr's blood and futility at the hands of heartless fools few still stand i will not be a slave absence of light perpetual white noise my soul is void

a light in the dark I could never see no validation for the grief endured by the true these pillars of my faith have not stood the test of time and my head still hangs from the same god damn noose that binds you and i as sacrificial souls to the primordial savagery of mankind what has been written cannot be undone still I wear this x branded into my flesh this foundation eroded by rites of passage what has given me life has also bled me dry salvation found at the end of a rope free me from the burden of my mortality a testament of affliction a lament written in stone born to suffer in the light until we are weathered to dust damnation at hand let it fucking die

Hollow Men 03:01
every man a self-made martyr, a monument to petty pride every liar rehearsing a chorus of mindless dissent stagnant lines recited in numbing unison. intentions sacrificed. shallow words crashing down on deaf ears. i've stood witness to your falsehood. seen the flame burn out in others. in hollow minds and hearts of stone. how long will you advocate your convictions, before you're called to act upon your beliefs? when the convenience fades where the fuck will you stand? on the edge of a knife or in the mold you've set? break the mold. you're worthless a shell of who you were cash in on your imitation in time you will waste away worthless

Choke 03:08
one too many times i've bitten my tongue in the face of malice. let blood run red between my teeth while waiting for justice. i've prayed for judgement to break your fucking neck. deconstruct. disavow. choke. coward. answer for your crimes. answer for your sins. coward. suffer at my hand. blood spilled for blood. your life forfeit. no hope. no redemption. no saving grace. choke on your words. this is a promise. retaliation.
