Acts of Defiance

Turmoil
Erratic shaking attempts to ride the tide
It is fury in its purest form
Fuck trust
United in acts of defiance
A body ruled by mind
A train wreck driven by sickness
And galvanized by my distress
Are you truly going to use me the same way you did before?
Fuck trust
United in acts of defiance
Two faced
A moribund wretched soul
Shackled to a fucking snake
Your days enlivened with indolence
Barely fit to dwell in your abode
Watching yourself slipping down the wrong track
Constantly searching for your next source of validation
Take a step back
See what your doing to yourself
An utter lack of self control
Relinquishing existence to substance
(To substance)
Two faced
A moribund wretched soul
In acts of defiance
In the face of withdrawals and hesitations
Oh you've changed
Feel free to shift the blame
Barely recognizable
(Feel free to shift the blame)
Your absence is felt
You'll find me down on anticline
Feel free to shift the blame

Isolated

Is there nowhere left to turn now?
I think that's what I'm afraid of
I'm pushing everything away
Lost in this putrid cloud of smoke
Sweet release, my only solitude
I can see now
I was the one who isolated myself
Forget my name
Fuck
Forget my name
Remove me
I can see now
I was the one who isolated myself
I'm pushing everything away
Break free
Stuck in a cage of the mind
Trying to piece together these last few months
Lost myself to the depths of this
Isolation

Carcasses rain
The gutted corpses of your lumbering principles
Devastating beasts of the abattoir
Throwing their bodies around in panic
Hand picked examples of ill faith
Frantically lashing down against a rising pile
Of contradictory actions
We're learning more from behaviour in separation
Than was possible in closeness
Carcasses rain
The gutted corpses of your lumbering principles
Devastating beasts of the abattoir
Distance gives way to clarity
Self respect bitterly seceding from your world view
You have no self respect
Fall to your knees and taste the pain
You can't imagine the guilt, you can't imagine the feeling
The sensation of my throat being ripped from my body
I can't breathe, I cannot see
For the love of god let me burn
Just let me burn

No Reparation
02:56
|

|
An apocryphal tale of your retribution
Cursed blood letter
Panning for gold in the muck
Filth coursing through your veins
You bottom rung dwelling
Feckless fucking cur
Feckless fucking cur
Nothing but a product of environment
I want to see you suffer
I want to see you witness hope in false dawns
And note the returning cynicism
And you'll fucking suffer
Incarceration
Violation
No reparation
Celebrating consumption with no clairvoyant
Providing solution
Cursed blood letter
Panning for gold in the muck
Filth coursing through your veins
As your panning for gold in the muck
Cursed blood letter
Fade from me now
Motherfucker, you bottom rung dwelling
Feckless fucking cur
Motherfucker
Fade from me now

Erasure
03:00
|

|
Fade
Fade from me now
(Fade from me now)
Erasure
Scarred, what little that I have
Censor (censor)
Justice in immoderation
Censor
Justice in immoderation
Watching blows fall
Witness blood run
Quietness the character of this suffering
Forced to watch
Forced to consider
Forced to take it in
Could I have abetted this?
Beating my conscience
My home was in the future
But you fucking broke it
Find comfort in the isolation
I will never be helpless again
My home was in the future
But you fucking broke it
Find comfort in the isolation
I WILL NEVER BE HELPLESS AGAIN
Justice in immoderation
Beating my conscience

Paranoia cycle
Disappointment
Am I repeating my days?
Plagued by a cycle
Permutations of a basic lifestyle
Plagued by a cycle
Paranoia
Permutations, I can see all
Plagued by a cycle myself I've blinded
Panic vein
Am I repeating my days?
Dictated by an ideal grey shade
Fucking monotony
Am I living the same day over?
I am nothing but a shell of who I used to be
I am so afraid of what I have become
I've lost myself
I'm living in a waking nightmare
Panic striking the heart
Paranoia
Who have I become?
I've lost myself to this hatred
Flowing through my veins
Who have I become?
I've lost myself to this fear that's still dictating me
There is no escape
Paranoia
Bearing down on me
Disappointment punctuating my existence
Fuck
Paranoid, I'm lost
I can't find my way home
