Systematic Desolation

Comfortable lie
In a twisted pretence
Only fools
Bare their soul to a Harpy princess
Lilith, Mahalath
Deceptive warmth of skin
Alluring, Concealing
The icy cavity within
embrace intoxicate
Feasting on despair
Affection is the lie
In which you capitalize
When a soul has nothing left
Bereaved and bereft
Fill the void with highs
Willingly pay for the lies
Four walls
Empty and hollow
The curtain falls
A bitter pill to swallow
Lilith, Mahalath
Deceptive warmth of skin
Alluring, Concealing
The icy cavity within

Dead Sun

All my sins... Fall
The husk... Shatters
Drown ... In madness
Humanity... Peels away
Numb... To any touch
Resigned... To the void
Time will tell if it doesn't kill first
Will you know yourself before you reach a hearse
The sun will rise for now
No worthy host to take a vow
Those who make themselves beast
The pain of human obsolete
Time will tell in this broken shell
Architect of my own hell
All my sins... Fall
The husk... Shatters
Drown ... In madness
Humanity... Peels away
Numb... To any touch
Resigned... To the void
Time will drain in a life mundane
Every God damn day the same
An uncomfortable shift makes me twist
In a world I cannot exist
The dying sun rapidly sets - there was no one
This dying son was already done
You have your sentence to serve (In your flesh prison)
We get what we deserve

Corrupt Crown

I'd like to chain you to a chair and scream into your skull
until you understand your grotesque indulgence is warfare
Corrupt crown. get off your high horse
or we, the people, will cut you down
Drink the venom, the poison we spit
Self serving tyrant so full of shit
I'm sick to my death of the side effects of your contact
The parasite that refuses to die, the waste of life and time
I'm sick to my death of the blinders you wear, delusions within
A world in which incompetent dicks with silver spoons are made kingpin
Corrupt crown. get off your high horse
or we, the people, will cut you down
Drink the venom, the poison we spit
Self serving tyrant so full of shit

No more games
No more love
No more laughing
No more fun
Out of time
Out of patience
Out of fucks
Out of line
My final words to you
Corrupted nerve tissue
Broken down before a breakthrough
Another failure before another
My final words default
Plunge the wound into the salt
Robbed of my resolve
Another failure before another
My final words define
Exhausted life in decline
In a Generation of swine
Another failure before another

Futility Loop

You were always there like cancer
Years ago I cut you out
Betrayed by blood, denied the answer
To burn that bridge for good
A drain on those who love and hate
Sucking on the withered breast long spent
Privileged, sheltered life of the ingrate
A burden I cannot tolerate
You are fully grown
But take like a child
Selfish parasite
Your victims are blind
With the tables turned
Could they survive?
Dreams cannot sustain human beings

The Halo Effect

You're really fucking dead to me now
And I hope that your world comes crashing down
Don't bother Crying out
You're all out of favour, I'm not your saviour
Halo on your head, is a fabrication of my making
Time denied, corrupted beholder
Absence makes my heart grow colder
You're a glutton for your pain
You expect me to care when you gorge on it anyway
Sun on my back but my shoulders are cold
You've made your bed now lie in the mold
Leave me alone, go away, fuck off
Halo on your head, is a fabrication of my making
Time denied, corrupted beholder
Absence makes my heart grow colder
Leave me alone, go away, fuck off
You're really fucking dead to the world
Your children have aged you, disengaging
No one really gets what they want
Always loveless marriage, I disparage
Halo on your head, is a fabrication of my making
Time denied, corrupted beholder
Absence makes my heart grow colder
