lyrics

Time to recover, years did nothing
Take the matter in your hands
It's not a choice
Programmed deep, survival instinct
Invent a new faith
Imagine a new way to breathe

Restless mind always wanders
Head stuck inside the clouds
Fog that hides
Who is to fault
Where it went wrong
See through the lies
Cut off the harmful ties

Find a way under the road
Meaningless hollow things float
Learning to filter them out
Flourishing under the ground

Underwater is where I live
Burying myself deeper, the colder it gets
More freely I breathe, more clearly I see
I'm used to the feel, of cold rocks breaking my skin
Rip the pages from your holy script
I don’t beg for forgiveness, I turn away
From your kind, directions are mine
I chose the freefall, In to nothingness

Burning coals and rusted nails
Focus on breathing
Ignore the flames (chosen path)
Slow suffocation
Thousand cuts
Keep marching forth
Against the grain

Find a way under the road
Meaningless hollow things float
Learning to filter them out
Flourishing under the ground

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae
