Catharsis 02:26
Spreading the word of our Lord, Jesus Christ The truth has never been so ambiguous Swimming a sea of fathomless consequence Constantly entombed in trepidation Relieve yourself from the poison you spit from your tongue In absence of a better world, the abyss consumes us Relinquish your morals and wallow in arrogance Clutching at straws and yet still you believe Claiming integrity, feigning significance Carve out these eyes Relieve yourself from the poison you spit from your tongue In absence of a better world, the abyss consumes us

Leeches 01:39
Leeches Fucking Leeches Another child is drowned Another body is found Another woman lays dead, face down on the ground Innocent blood is spilled Another family is killed Another headline at least Another unmarked grave So sick and so depraved And yet you relish the horror and ride the wave Another lie is told A fabrication sold Another headline at least Leeches Fucking Leeches A feigned sympathetic plea Corrupt beyond belief Abhorrent bastards that showcase malignancy Wretched by avarice Acute and cancerous Another headline at least Another unmarked grave So sick and so depraved And yet you relish the horror and ride the wave Another lie is told A fabrication sold Another headline at least Leeches Fucking Leeches

Mar 03:08
This invocation breeds infection A subtle rape of the fragile mind Our “saviour” present in many forms A wound carved by the great deceivers Marred An indeterminable result One last struggle for acceptance Never forgiving, never forgetting A great fracture on mankind Marred An incorrigible evil, with one goal in mind Possession – total control and by any means necessary The art of impiety, masked by reverence Draped in depravity, all for a false existence Fraudulent and dangerous, the evidence is there Yet our unwillingness to accept it allows this to continue Suffocating the credulous Leaving us to decay Plugging the wounds with more lies This whole process is fucking marred Marred

Obsequies 04:02
Clawing at the heels of sorrow Following those that blindly follow The earth below me crumbles Sipping from this spoiled chalice Out of sync and off-balance Head-on into the struggle Standing alone at the precipice of collapse Now hell awaits Downfall impending Guilt never-ending Staring into the fractures of civilisation All hope devoid This grave upheaval Decrepit and feeble Clawing at the heels of sorrow Following those that blindly follow The earth below me crumbles Sipping from this spoiled chalice Out of sync and off-balance Head-on into the struggle Forward into the strains of this denouement Anguish transcending Always pretending Singing the song of constant iniquity Lost in the wild Escaping this chasm Starving the fashion Clawing at the heels of sorrow Following those that blindly follow The earth below me crumbles Sipping from this spoiled chalice Out of sync and off-balance Head-on...
