Scorch the earth
Call it a banner year
Spill your blood
I hear Gaia cheer
Losing sight
Of how we used to be
Annihilation
Via industry
Nothing green
Remains alive
Nothing will satisfy
Save your breath
Your days are numbered
Only smiles
As it all comes down
I won't be the one to
Step aside
And let you go unopposed
Do you feel the bubbling
Of your eye
Your conscience
Decompose
You won't be alive
To watch us boil
Yet you feed the fever
Won't be alive
To watch us boil
Yet you feed the fever
Feed the fever
Overflow with mirth
We're witnessing the
Final gasp of
Earth
Save your breath
Your days are numbered
Only smiles as it all comes down
Only smiles as it all comes down

Deathblow

Always searching
For an answer
I will never become
My own master
Finding comfort
In misery
Hold on to the feeling
Where I'm constantly sinking
Just relax
The water's cool
But you're the one that's filling up
My drowning pool
You're the one
You're the big man
Fat wallet and a
Master plan
Look at the profit you've turned
Every dollar that you've made is
A dollar we've earned
I will never become
My own master
Tear a new hole
Into my belt
Tighter and tighter until
The death blow's dealt
Anxiety
Like you've never felt
Temperatures rise and
Your world will melt
Tighter and tighter until
The death blow's dealt
Temperatures rise and
Your world will melt
What's been done to me
Will not end with me
They won't stop until they've
Gone and ruined everything
No more waiting
For an answer
I've become
My own master
What's been done to me
Will not end with me
They won't stop until
They've gone and ruined everything
No more waiting
For an answer
I have become
My own master

Glue Trap

It's non violent
You'll live and die in it
Your last breath
Bleeding out in a
Glue trap
Ensnared
Struggle to escape
Stick your face in it
Fucking suffocate
Praying for death
Let it consume you
Stick your face in it
and fucking suffocate
Writhe inside your liquid
Casket of scars
Guilty of wanting to
Erase your stars
It's non violent
You'll live and die in it
Your last breath
Bleeding out in a
Glue trap
It's non violent
But it will never quit
You can't escape
A slow death in a
Glue trap
Chew off your leg
To escape
Only to die a few feet away
Ever hopeless
Under duress
Victims of their
Endless excess
My eyes are
Seeing gray
Cries lost into the void
Tormented as your
Soul decays
Dreams of stability
Destroyed
Struggle to escape
Stick your face in it
Fucking suffocate
Praying for death
Let it consume you
Stick your face in it and
Fucking suffocate

Kingdom of Pain

Sharpen your blade
Upon my bones
Rip my nails
Away from their homes
Gouge my eyes
Run me through
Do your worst
You always do
Face my mortality
Sever my heart from
Its cold cavity
Shoulder to shoulder
Shoulder to shoulder
Your hate growing colder
Nothing to reclaim
In your
Kingdom of pain
Kingdom of pain
Drifting in
Drifting out
You ask me what I see
The hurt bringing clarity
A crown without a king
Shoulder to shoulder
Shoulder to shoulder
Your hate growing colder
Nothing to reclaim
In your kingdom of pain
Kingdom of pain
Do your blind eyes see
The curse you bore on me
The one that you broke
Is now your only hope

Red Soil
02:32

So many the same
So many without purpose
Who am I but an
Animated carcass
Instrument of
Infinite control
Inherit the
Throne of the soul
Searching for flowers
that once grew
Sifting through soil
and decaying roots
Wrong place at the
Wrong time
Hands shake at gunpoint
An uneasy truce
My limbs sink into the earth
Hands unfurl
Nails gather filth
A field of bones
I begin to wilt
Return to self
A cold winter's dearth
Instrument of infinite control
Inherit the throne of the soul
Return to red soil
Release from tumoil
Return to red soil
Release from turmoil
A vessel for my thoughts
And towering hubris
Accepting endless loss
Remaining useless
Return to red soil
Release from turmoil

I am kicking myself for being so late to this band. I found out about them from their HIRS collaboration and went straight to this album, oh my godddd it is incredible. My turntable stays at 45RPM because I keep putting this one back on. Keep pushing yall.

I'm way too close to way too many trashcans to be listening to music that solicists way too many emotions, but this is much wanted, much needed and much appreciated, really, really refreshing. probably the coolest album I've heard in a long time
