Track Lyrics

Crippling Poison Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So apologetic
Our sorries are an epidemic
We will forgive, we have forgotten
Penance paid, all for nothing
Total fucking failure
[Chorus]
Final nail
In the coffin, we failed
It's the final nail
In the coffin, we failed
Final nail
In the coffin, we failed
It's the final nail
In the coffin, we failed
[Verse 2]
My heart beats through my chest
I'm a fucking mess
I'm going through some shit
I feel fucking sick
I don't feel well
I'm just not myself
[Chorus]
Final nail
In the coffin, we failed
It's the final nail
In the coffin, we failed
Final nail
In the coffin, we failed
It's the final nail
In the coffin, we failed
[Outro]
Final nail
Final nail
Final nail

Seeing God Lyrics

5 ContributorsSeeing God LyricsChildren of the cloven hoof
Bathe the cross in your father's blood
Unholy priestess, deliver us
Glory from a poisoned mouth
Formed underneath the earth
Prisoner of purified dirt
It grows, it grows
Try to hide your terror, but it shows
The blood solidifies
The plants and animals die
This ground is cursed
Spreading for miles under the earth
No shelter from the fury
The end of all things
Inevitable
Inevitable
(Seeing God)
No shelter from the fury
The end of all things
Inevitable
Indomitable
We didn't sell our souls, we gave them up for free
We fear the dark
But it's the light
That exposes the true horrors of this world
Catch your breath
Clutch your chest
Catch your breath
Drop fucking dead
Drop fucking dead
Gazing into nothing, we finally may see the truth
No shelter from the fury
The end of all things
Inevitable
Indomitable
Where do your loyalties lie?
This version of the world exists out of spite
Where do your loyalties lie?
I sit and smile, that's what you're worth, you die

I Breathed In the Smoke Deeply It Tasted Like Death and I Smiled Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wish a heaven on Earth for my enemies
So that hell will hurt so much more
I never dream because I'm never asleep
I dove headfirst in the water, and I swam too fucking deep
The fire ignites the sky
I never got the chance to say goodbye
[Chorus]
This has to be a terrible dream
This is a defense mechanism
Our minds are playing tricks on us
We have left the boundaries of the observable universe
[Verse 2]
I can't think
I can't cry
My mind would implode
I want to disappear
Debilitated
I'm sorry, I wish I waited
It ended alone
Not knowing why you weren't at home
Apologies unheard
I live, I die by your word
Apologies unheard
I live, I die by your word
Apologies unheard
I live, I die by your word
I walk this path alone
Push further away
[Outro]
I wish a heaven on Earth for my enemies
So that hell will hurt so much more
I breathed in the smoke
Deeply, it tasted like death, and I smiled

Chhinnamasta Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can't fucking breathe
The grass is all dead, but I'm choking on the weeds
Fruit decaying in the trees
Rotting branches swaying gently in the breeze
[Chorus]
Drain me of my sanity
I can't fucking breathe
Pray for me
I can't fucking breathe
[Verse 2]
We are drowning in the lake
We are drowning in the lake
A hovering wasteland devoid of time
A cancer magnet breaking down reality
We are rotting, hopelessly unaware of our nonexistence
[Chorus]
Drain me of my sanity
I can't fucking breathe
Pray for me
I can't fucking breathe
[Verse 3]
I never made a promise I could keep
I close my eyes and pretend to sleep
We're only biding our time
Barely clinging to life, I'm fucking dying inside (I'm dying inside)
Pray for me
[Outro]
A gaping wound
Bleeding darkness into absolution
Infecting actuality
Living a constant painless death
A collection of husking corpses
Destined to stride along in eternal ignorance

Birds of Paradise, Birds of Prey Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I fell asleep in God's arms and woke up in hell
Take my bones, forgive the dirt
Take my heart, it no longer hurts
Screaming out my final plea
I'm begging you, take all of me
[Chorus]
We all bask in the glow of the light we shine on ourselves
We all bask in the glow of the light we shine on ourselves
[Bridge]
(Every road led to you)
(Every road led to you)
[Verse 2]
A heart so cold and filled with gloom
Every road led to you
You made me feel alive
Then the world died
Make me think?
How dare you make me think
Do you dream while you sleep?
Make me think?
How dare you make me think
Are you escaping reality?
[Outro]
We all bask in the glow of the light we shine on ourselves
We all bask in the glow of the light we shine on ourselves

Earth Will Become Death Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The last rays of natural light
Shine down upon your shattered face
As you watch the clouds swallow the sun
Then you know darkness
Then you know pain
In great abundance, the clouds erupt
There are no heavens above us, it's always dusk
[Verse 2]
We always keep crawling back
They all come crawling back
We are the sacrifice
Become death
We always keep crawling back
They all come crawling back
We are the sacrifice
Become death
Smell the stench, breathe it in
Crack the bone, peel back the skin
I gag on my breath on the way in
Taste the sin
[Bridge]
We fell out of love with the world we used to know
We fell out of love with the world we used to know
We fell out of love with the world we used to know
We fell out of love with the world we used to know
[Chorus]
Earth will become death
Earth will become death
Earth will become death
Earth will become death
[Outro]
The only thing harder than saying goodbye to yourself
Is saying goodbye to the ones you loved
