Fear me of what I am comprised Your sole witness gouges out her eyes And the fear intensifies Feed your head, let the thoughts collide Paranoid and left alone to conceive Invasive thoughts; my malignant disease And the drip flows into drought As I crawl across this crippling doubt But now it’s lost inside of you You’ve gotta give up the ghost Nothing more for you to do You’ve gotta give it up Rid what’s left lurking inside The harrowed feeling that you have contrived And the fear intensifies Feed your head, let the thoughts collide One’s doubt is another’s consent Of life’s nectar; I am drenched My cold spectre is laughing at me Scratching my floor, crystallizing my dreams. And I got it through My last look of you Your bad intentions Left you empty Searching to no avail But now it’s lost inside of you You’ve gotta give up the ghost Nothing more for you to do You’ve gotta give it up In my head In my mind In my brain One last chance And you’re living like you’re already dead In my mind In my head One last chance And you’re living like you’re already dead

Say it as you want it to seem ‘Cause you know this isn’t you Care to howl when it’s foul play Screaming until you’re blue Cognitive dissonance disowns your will to subside All this time to crowd your image Now you’re making up your mind Bleeding, feeding, Drowning all the time Feeding, leering, Drowning all the time, Feeding, bleeding Shouting ’til you know All this time to crowd your image Now you’ve got no place to go The humour, the fun The being undone All in all we’ll call it a spade Forged in Irony Though curt and crass, We’ll settle at last, Pretentious, selfish, ol’ you and me Forged in Irony Bleeding, feeding, Drowning all the time Feeding, leering, Drowning all the time, Feeding, bleeding Shouting ’til you know All this time to crowd your image Now you’ve got no place to go The humour, the fun The being undone All in all we’ll call it a spade Forged in Irony Though curt and crass, We’ll settle at last, Pretentious, selfish, ol’ you and me Forged in Irony The humour, the fun The being undone Put another bullet in me Forged in Irony Though curt and crass, We’ll settle at last, Pretentious, selfish, ol’ you and me Forged in Irony

Rabid 05:19
All you have been to this Was nothing more than less Of everything once given And everything put to rest Our blinded dreams they’re stranded Can’t seem to find our way A stranger to the path An animal astray And the question remains It’s so strange I’m feeling sick again Volatile Mental Neglect We’ll dose away Into the near Obscuring all that’s clear Hypnotized into deject You’ve been Denied of your potential Broken outside the cage While you’re hoping for furthering We’re speaking out for change Vulture circling in flight A descending vengeant soar Rabid, rabid; their fight Knocking your front door Rabid generation Fear not what you think It’s so strange I’m feeling sick again Volatile Mental Neglect We’ll dose away Into the near Obscuring all that’s clear Hypnotized into deject Of our thoughts We can’t prevent Why can’t you see That my mind is taking me Please oh Why don’t You just Help me Well you know what they say Well, they say I’m helpless Well, what the fuck am I? Just another way to live You’re just a lonely way to die And they say I’m ruthless Well, I came and served You fell back from your dreams And thats all you’re worth You’re just a lonely way to die

Fallen from the ice age A cold mask speaks to me Her beauty spoke so heinously As she lied right through her teeth Well she swept them of their feet With a rope around their necks Benumbed and esoteric Her thoughts became phonetic Still I couldn’t give a damn to take it back Never, never get it solved Well her eyes spoke in a quiver As her gaze became so cold Well it’s without a doubt That when she opened her mouth Everything went so cold Now still I sit here incomplete And my thoughts begin to crowd Through this void; gelidly decoyed Fulfillment of my heart is never found Don’t bleed on me If you’ve lost your composure Just don’t bleed on me The gall in your scream An incessant scold, you Just don’t bleed on me Well it’s true to me And you’ve lost your composure Just don’t bleed on me Vile conceit And I’d do it just for you Just don’t bleed on me

Odd 03:50
I’ll take advantage dear Entrenched by your fear A victim of your horrified gaze And I kissed her shadow I told her to turn away She stared right through me Dumb and depraved And left with nothing to say Well I’m odd, And I know I’m odd, And I know; it’s odd My hook her keeper I draw the line Gave em the jeepers creepers When I tugged the twine And I kissed her shadow She told me lay to waste I stare right through her Tongue in my brain And left with one thing to say Well I’m odd, And I know I’m odd, And I know; it’s odd

Crawlspace 05:17
Masochistic So sadistic My vengeance cuts so deep Self-constricted Feels so cryptic Falling in and out of sleep Psycho-spastic Feels fantastic To know I’m one of a kind Now they lay to waste Filling empty space Decomposition of the rind Through the dead-beat Down the up-street Well, I pushed it to the peak All the girls I couldn’t meet Well, in those days Puppets on a cold, cold stage No happy endings here Boy when I was your age When the world’s your own You feel left alone Creeping yourself across the stage When you find yourself With no one else Keeping death’s crawlspace Complete disorder Of the carcass hoarder Reap the harvest of his grain Passion killing So fulfilling The reek driving sexual pain Feels misgiving Unfamiliar living Gonna die to feed my gain The amount you know I couldn’t let you go You’ve got to carry on my name Through the dead-beat Down the up-street Well I pushed it to the peak All the girls I couldn’t meet Well in those days Puppets on a cold, cold stage No happy endings here Boy when I was your age Crawlspace

Transgressive is his rest In his death; he invests You keep him down, and trapped, and squirming For the anguish keeps it burning Fight for what you can’t tell You gave ‘em right to a living hell Show us the dignity in feeling as though it’s our turn Oh, they say “We’re all on our way” Without grace we’ll find our own way Find nothing left in people As the fire starts to bite the seam And you spike it up with oil And spread the joy with gasoline The syphoning tranquility Brings life into obscurity Cover your eyes Face the streets As they blow your mind And fuck your dreams It’s now that they say; “We’re all on our way” Without grace we’ll find our own way Burning, burning, Burning with desire A sanitizing marinade of fire We all face those vivid thoughts But we run, Run away And it haunts us, Taunts us, Day by day Well, With a molotov cocktail well in hand, I’ll find my way, And it haunts us everyday
8.
Fuck you, Your psyche, And fuck your reality The lightning, The black, The end of you all There’s sickness In your eyes All you didn’t know Will be their right The taming abuse The glamorous freaks Now I rest With the smoke in my chest Left to confide Of the horrors inside We don’t hit the deck We flip the table If you wanna spit shit We’re at the bottom of the label Lucid In disguise With demons on my side You’re wasting your life keeping up with me The fixing in their guise Of schizoids gone fish-eyed The taming misuse Blushing at the flirt of death Now I rest With the smoke in my chest Left to confide Of the horrors inside We don’t hit the deck We flip the table If you wanna spit shit We’re at the bottom of the label You’re tuned to a dead channel, man
9.
Grace set afire Our lady no more Her bones are breaking All is adorned Our place of worship Is our place to hide Gathered in murder As one we die In my thoughts I bleed Blurring all I see Calloused infancy Lost within a dream Withered in madness From ourselves, we step aside Where there is ruin Treasure, there may lie They’ll never know of What lived inside In my thoughts I bleed Blurring all I see Calloused infancy Lost within a dream

They tried to fill my head, again I couldn’t feel myself Oh well Seems we’re all allergic to dust When I thought it Selfish, honest Feels so godless Though my exemptive senses Paid on end un-phased Though I forgave the senseless I’ll sit inert by your cage Of all the stiffened faces This one may remain Ectoplasm shifts apace Well, I’ll till the dirt by your grave Lost through your eyes Sealed in my skin Neutralize these thoughts I’ve confined Can you make me Customary? Contemplation While you shame The distrust In my mind Feels so godless I dove and couldn’t tread Is there more that I could see? Are we less than we could be? Oh what a fucking disgrace All these teething teens Seems we’re all allergic to dust Maggots of the vision Lost in the echoes In search of purpose Squirming through failure My words forever Sentenced to death I couldn’t tell if you cared to see What was looking out inside of me What could it be? Why does it feed? Parasitic grief Disposable me My mind bloats Gluttonously feeding into you While you gloat Ravage and eat up all of me And I lay here; still as stone Dreaming of sleep I trusted you with my pulse I crept across blurred lines I hope there’s something else Between you and I Sweating under my skin Lost in my aneurysm Peeling through all that sunk in How It ends; where do I begin? Sweating under my skin Finding the way out within Life has lost all rhythm Sweating under my skin
