WRIT
The sun falls
And it brings with it
The second coming
The commandments writ
I’m pacing quicker
Than I’d like to admit
Sinking deeper
But I can give a shit
When I’ve fallen
Bury me in ash
Let the dark in
The earth has eaten
My flesh and bone
Let my sins win
There’s no hope left
Humanity at its worst
I have longed
To help bring this curse
The cloak and dagger
Will decide your fate
Descending ladder
I just couldn’t wait
I won’t be the first
to see the end of this
light in the tunnel
darkness screaming my name
When I called on the accursed
They welcomed me with open arms
I was rid of my thirst
But I still have my scars
Perpetuated
I have seen the end
Sealed and tossed aside
Debilitated
Your mouth will speak thy words
And you’ll be forced to abide
Poison the earth
With this fucking curse
We pay our debt with our lives
our actions tighten the noose
This disease we call humanity
It will cease to exist
By our own fucking hands
This is our exodus
A Black cloud hangs over our heads
Staring death in the face
It’s too late for a change
No retribution

TESTAMENT OF PAIN
Fuck your prayers the lies fall through your teeth
You think you’re above everyone you meet
I am the new word
The testament of pain
Pulling teeth
For every seed grown
Your secret’s not fucking safe
I’m the one to blame
For your tragedies
So don’t crawl to me
In your time of need
Get off your fucking knees
How does it feel to know
That everything that you
Built up in your fucking head
Is now gone
And there’s no going back
The seed of justice
Has proved plentiful
Mother of sorrow
Pull me under with you
Those faces
Those falsehoods
They never mattered
Replacing heretics
By the minute
Days are shattered
I dig my fucking feet in the sand
As the world becomes mine
At my very hand
Bow to me and repent your sins
I am the world’s new king
I am the new word
The testament of pain

DESTINED TO ROT
I open wide with the sheets over my eyes
Twilight’s pulling me back
How’d I get this close to light
With my scent on the tracks?
I’m choking on my blood
I’m holding my own eyes
I’m peeling my own skin off and
I’m drowning in these lies
Now that the flesh is cataloged
Now that man had set his throne
There’s no cracks in the dialogue
Not a man left to thoughts of his own
I’m filled with the hate of the apostle
My voided eyes still see from the ground
You tried to wash away my shadow
Just to make me foul to the sound
What will I gain from these wasted thoughts?
Am I destined to rot?
Should I turn away and bury my face
And just take these shots?
Each turn of the blade is a treasure
Now it’s all in your hands
With my eyes still at my own measure
You won’t meet his demands
I’m choking on my blood
I’m holding my own eyes
I’m peeling my own skin off and
I’m drowning in these lies
What will I gain from these wasted thoughts?
Destined to rot

PITCH BLACK
I see the patterns - we all do
You’re clawing our your eyes
Who would’ve thought it’d be your own hands
Ripping off the disguise?
I should’ve seen this coming
Fingers crossed behind your back
Now you amount to nothing
I’ll dig a hole for you - pitch black
I heard you have a lot to say
Pitch black
Hide your face and take the fucking blame
Pitch black
Don’t look back now - play your shitty game
Pitch black
Open eyes closed mouth as you waste away
They’re closing in
The walls around you - they’re getting closer
Erase my sin
This will test your fucking composure
I have given you back without a trace left
An endless void, pitch black, without a trace left
I have given you life without a last breath
A lightless land, pitch black without a name left
Pitch Black
I have given you back without a trace left
I have given you life without a last breath

THIN BLUE CRIME
You hide behind the badge
While you talk your shit
Like you’re the law that guides
When in reality
You’re just a pawn at play
Pushed up to die
If I could take their pain
I’d live in their fears
So I could really get it
Dealing with the likes of you
For centuries
Only skin committed
Day by day we see
The true crime at hand
And we will never forget who forgot their fellow man
It’s such a shame
That a thin blue line
Can justify the cleansing
Of a bloodline
It makes me fucking sick
You have to live
With the scum of the earth
Breathing down your necks
In constant fear
Questioning your worth
Struggling
To get the words out
Before you’re guilty
Dissecting
Entry and exit wounds
To the committee
Wondering
Where we went wrong
I know my side
When the people stand up
And your badge is stripped
Where will you hide?
Now it’s different
When you’re on the other end
Of wet pavement
Spilling their blood
For a paycheck
Think about those kids
Who never had a chance
Modern enslavement
Futures cast aside
For your sense of pride
Was it worth it
Thin blue crime
