Isolation 01:05
2.
Being separated Contaminated Isolation created this world’s epidemic Being desecrated Hated Saturated in this sceptical imagination So confined Completely disconnected from this world Welcoming This restricted way This array of light forever in my eyes I’ve tried To remind myself of recent life It’s gone Who am I? Who am I? Slowly retrieving days Ashamed to say that I obeyed Manufactured guilt To tune us to a state Controlled frame of mind Which is so confined Become one with this frame and display this Gift of purity This body is a place the mind can never escape Lost amongst the faceless Witnessing A new sense of mortality Can’t you feel this presence I leave? I leave Have I just opened my eyes for the first time? Free from this bind Restricting my mind Can’t you see? That your limited eyes are weak Can’t you see? Your limited mind is bleak Witnessing A new sense of morality Questioning My previous life’s beliefs So confined Rest of my days in this facility Left to grieve on my past insecurities Face this place I can never escape I am relieved I am here
3.
Mindless 03:20
Devastation Thanks to our creator How clever To lead on the weak Various authors Dead and gone Look at what you’ve done Mindless Internal ruin inflicted Sheep with no fleece Blindly follow Kill for your belief Murder every last woman or child Can’t you feel this void? Upon us all Can’t you see this written restriction? Testify Against my needs Left to be within this constriction Left to die No empathy Patronise Undoubtedly So hide behind the veil Your eyes disguised by lies It’s fucking sickening It’s fucking sickening Outward perspective Inward impossible A scripture so old The author created these hills Or so it’s believed Death of God I wish you could see what you’ve done Mindless Hold on It’s begun What drives a man to murder? Mindless No reasons Release these demons Release these demons In the name of nothing You murder Think for yourself Not your god
4.
Undiscovered Covered in filth Become one with this scum Left to rot Completely forgotten Left to bless this mess with death I once resented Now I respect this Scum I’ve become one with Completely rejected Amongst the neglected But never regret this Path that I went with Constantly questioned And never accepted Amongst the ones who claim they’re respected I resent them I resent your ways How you blindly follow Through this filtered haze To waste the days of your sorrow You think that we’re no better Constantly engaged by the other life Constantly watching them strive for nothing I watch you portray this display of life But this array you’re left with is beyond repressed Left between a dream or a pointless direction Yet you can’t seem to relieve this tension So gullible So restrained within yourself The sin within you is bleak Speak the truth and seek relief As you continue to think You look at my life with disgust You’ll never achieve this dream you lead Are you aware of your apathy? Left between a dream or a pointless direction Yet you can’t seem to relieve this tension You have become beyond repressed Undiscovered Going insane Your meaning is bleak So fabricated with this desperate display Yet you can explain This taste that you seek
5.
Falling Prey to the beast Creator of sin Accept this gift Moulding A face to grace a race with hate And spread this seed Come to Fear our limits are exceeded Rest your prior sense And become the defected Can there be a different way of being? There can be a different release Can't you see this way of life is eating? The desperate mind of those who still believe I still believe Our so-called maker The creator of common misbehaviour Underestimated us The first restricted species Devolved with written theories A culture defiled Instincts quick to synch with restriction At risk of distant delinquents A culture defined Complicated Uncreatable Become betrayed by the one you obey Falling Prey to the beast Creator of sin Accept this gift Moulding A face to grace a race with hate And spread this seed Come to Fear our limits are exceeded Rest your prior sense Become defected Understand an individual life is for you to make Separate this simple state of mind and originate Understand an individual life is for you to make Separate this simple state of mind and Exceed the limits Redirect this ego Disconnect from it all Free this grip from this scripted reality Become one with this world Rather than try understand Stand on your own again Exceed the limits Redirect this ego Disconnect from it all Free yourself Free yourself Free yourself Free yourself
6.
The Epidemic 06:05
I can’t believe it’s been over a decade Since I placed this final stitch into my face I wanted Created A personal sedation A place free from reality Replace this state with this timeless perception Left to guide my own life Take this away I have begun to rely On fabricated eyes Why? Deep inside Bleeds a life Lost Relief of time Brings peace of mind At times I’m silent But violently screaming Pleading for something To remind me I’m dreaming At times I’m silent But violently screaming Pleading for something To remind me I’m dreaming Bleeding Feeding Seeding within Left to be one with my life My mask has always been my shade but My comfort in dusk has slowly faded With this array of light that seeps through A stray stitch which over time created This display of dawn This tear’s unbearable Now forever tainted by this blinding light A new perspective is born And it’s torn My life apart I’ve strived so long for peace in darkness I’ve strived so long for this. Fire See it Fire See it Fire See it Fire See it Fire See this burn My mask still fits perfectly but slowly Unravelling and showing me purity Creating a hole in this canvas Behold my soul’s first glance at this madness Deep inside Bleeds a life
7.
Prodigy of nothing Born into common ground Failure of everything Useless to your ambitions Conforming to this numbing Suffering way of life Hidden in society Find hope in dark of night Anxious obedient Religious dog of Christ Plagiarised fictional chronicle Obnoxious sickening myth Acceptance unredeemed With edgeless rusted knives Cavernous wounds of bleeding Infected hollow preachers Arise To reality A scene of blackened times Goodnight To a fantasy Useless maggot of grime Deny relations Avoid these empty minds Spastic congregation Innovating waste of life Conscience exploding Images disgusting Force fed a design Created for a lesser kind No cure for this Shit stained mind No easy way to wash it away Try to ignore this Pulsing virus Regurgitated carcass Mass produced shameless bile Foreseen the antidote The powers kept it close In fear of a free thinking herd Reclaim the power back The cult can never hide Spreading wings of darkness Free thinking cures the blind Blood suckers Taking more than they deserve Silent masquerade Someday the guilt will find Creating sorrowed cries Sacrificial bleeding for a so called saviour Pain stakingly creating the worst behaviour Now justified Waiting for demise Repulsive idols gracing a rotten throne Segregated Dreading your time alone Scriptures burnt with fire Icons shrieking cries
8.
Why am I here? I don’t care for this You’re all pathetic I’m done Time after time I’ve tried Still I don’t understand I stand alone disgusted You’ve claimed I’m wrong again I say you’re all tame and weak Your desperate eyes Speak your scripted mind I can’t deny this I seek relief from this misery This torture ends I can’t relate here I cannot seem to leave this place This torture ends Resent aside I cannot see guidance before me There’s nothing left here for me Nothing to believe in I have strived all my life only to realise This path that I’ve created Through life was always tainted With the blood of a suicide I feel alive with this rope around my neck Relieving Achieving This dream of leaving All for one last breath Why pray? There cannot be An afterlife There will not be Another time I crave Why pray? There cannot be An afterlife There will not be Another time I crave An end to this Wasted time This abandoned life The day that my Lifeless remains remain decomposing Forgotten and left to decompress No respect for this mess that I’ve left Open your eyes! See all this! I seek no relief with this life now deceased Please do not grieve Why would I?

North 05:33
Forcefully unwilling a torrent of nature Cold black diminished night Solidified burning Scolding red landscapes Tainted cardinals of bleeding sands Unthinkable distance Measured by hatred Scum-sucking way of the mass Delinquent dust storms cutting life’s throat Disgustingly draining Infested Decaying North Twisted the tumours of man’s growth Through distance so blinded on how they choke No acts of cult Just bleeding hands Defiled epidemic of power trip Shameless antagonist Hide from the seething weight of dogma The apocalypse The void in society Long for the inner being burning Anaesthetic Craving the disgusting Strip back the mind Eyes burnt black from seeing the light Lands engorged With wasted souls Look near the end is coming Look for the zombie mass The stench of towering building The pile of human trash Scrambling for common purpose Scrambling for lack of thought The pulsing wound of desired Gullible human trash Horizon of blood From memories hands Gratefully brutal Disgustingly painful baron sands There is no life But life seems to be Accustomed to darkness Regathering souls found a peaceful place up north. Up North
