Sew my eyes shut so I can’t see
an Illusion i just can’t comprehend
A thousand different images
that i’ll never erase from my memory
a thousand reasons why i’ll never trust again
I can feel it
Ripping/Pulling/Tearing
At every aching bone
An unspoken thought
I can feel it
Every broken promise tortures my soul
Lay me on a bed of nails and I’ll call it home
I engrave your betrayal
and peel back flesh
To expose these braided veins
that carry every ounce of sorrow
Tortured by every breath I take
Desperation creeping in
Light fades
Infected wounds never heal
They turn black and rot away
with anger and despair
Leaving scars in complex patterns
of hatred in their place

Even for this genre the sheer intensity of this album always manages to floor me. Might not be the most unique album under the sun but it doesn't have to be; the performances are tight and ferocious, the songwriting is dynamic and explosive, the production is crushing, it's just all things to a mathcore fan. napalmsatan
