lyrics

(W/ special thanks to Colin Plach)
Broken free from apathetic impurities
Apathy isn’t property that’s evenly fought for-
Devoid of purpose
Cold and alone
Grasping the grooves in my chest
In search of failed emotions.
As I as I wake up screaming, as I wake up screaming
Remnants of time I was so lost in
Realizing that there is nothing
Greed masks the mind
And I’m caught at rifts edge
Between existence and the faded abyss
They try to drain the life from the holes in my face,
I’ll consume your flesh feed off your fears and break you
Remnants of time I was lost in
Realizing that there is nothing
As I wait, as I shake, lies spill out
I finally feel again
And the impulses from my brain command me
To take your breath away it’s something I feel will make the world safe
Something commanded me from my brain
As I wait as I shake the lies spill out…

Your music connects on every level, whether it’s physical, emotional or spiritual. Impressive musicianship and song writing.
