I had the darkest dream
Body parts scattered, ripped at the seams
Hammer and nail, the pain undermines
Dear lord tell me I'll be fine
Isolation
Third-degree burns
Human claw marks line the walls
The nightmare is real
And it's all God's plan
Brain matter bathtime
Sorry I stained your dress
Brain matter bathtime
Love me beautiful
Brain matter bathtime
Rosary piano wire
Brain matter bathtime
Carve the martyr flesh
Fallacy divide
I will not be condemned
Deepening the lie
I will never be silenced
For this holy war
Commodity humanity
Welcome trojan horse
Morality a rarity
My love, my love it's all for you
To live through the war
Do not open that fucking door
Die!
Bleeding hearts won't beat
Hold your children tight
Reality a tragedy
Fervent parasite
Misanthropy for sanity
My love, my love it's all for you
Hell will know my name!
To leave it all behind
The slaughter in your wake
Existential bleed-through
Suicide mannequin, devotion fake
Die!
Bleeding hearts won't beat
They fucking rot!

And now
A tale of mental hell
Defiled
The future's here to fail
You lie
Glad I'm doing well?
For hope
Integrity will sell
Run away
From everything you love
Father please
Ruin all my dreams
Breathing skull
Deathly walk incarnate
Mouth of rot
Bastard blind smile
Dogma
Broken undesired
The flame
Profane mourning pyre
Defect
Desperation sired
Future
Destitution choir!
Love me and throw me away
Use me, I'll do anything
I'll do anything for you
Pissing razor doll
Deathly whore, body fall
Undone, the crow decays
Wonderland, crimson haze

My darling it wont be very long
From her mother, it may as well have been a hellsong
(Abandon me, rain down on me)
By the lips of her loved ones entrust
Fateful the encounter, innocence is loss

Conscience Rot

When the feelings you get
Undermine your common sense
When everything you know is a lie
When the people you meet
Just want to see you bleed
When the only thing to do is fight
Tired of the morals and the martyrs and the machinations
Propaganda and the spin, all agenda from within
Don't look away at the violence
For freedom, a moment of silence
May I deserve neglect
Sanctimonious
Conscience rot, mangled regret
Sacregilious
"OM-effing-G I'm fucking offended!
My opinion is all that matters!
I'm completely grown but I need a safe space!"
Well guess what? Life doesn't bend to your bullshit will!
Shutting down the guilt machine
I'm left but a cynical fucking shell
Floating down the stream of consciousness

Liar alive
Inflicting
Pain, he saw and turned his head
Hungry, she prayed for their return
Unassuming, the caregiver
Will ready the rod to beat her again
Her life before that day
Was relatively normal
But then her parents went away
And that's when it began
She was all of sixteen
And quick to trust
Could not bear to go
When her parents left
Taken in by her best friend's mother
The lady seemed warm and kind
Treated the girl like one of her own
Then poor Lydia unknowingly crossed the line
Envy made her thrash the girl
Jealous of her youth
Painted her a lying hellchild
Though she told the truth
Opened her doors to the young of the street
Letting them take their turns
Not an ounce of empathy was felt
As she cried from the burns
Into your flesh we'll carve
To show all the boys what you really are
Raped and broken is your life now
Starved and beaten is your life
She lies awake at night
Shackled and weeping for their return
Unassuming, the heartless bitch
Will ready the rod
Infection to sepsis
The blood is dark and dry
Rage displacement scapegoat
Humanity is a lie
Hallucinating, calming twilight
Fear and sorrow gone
Motionless, apathy gaze
On the basement floor, she fades
Lydia is dead

So deep
Inside mind's abbatoir
I know
One day I'll disappear
The role I took
I never felt alive
The past is gone
Only remains the memories
Ripping through the stained glass window
Of the third-eye sanctuary
Bound and gagged and chain-dragged through hell
How far we fell...
|

Is this but a fevered dream
Masquerade of all sweet shadow
And then I see my fate
Trapped in the shame I cannot sate
And then I see my fate
Dead I am, for you the void
To err is human
Forgiveness nonexistent
Mannequin!
Take me into the dark, the great dark mouth!
I'd give it all to see
The born-again bastard cease to be
I'd give all of me
To the beautiful nothing, eternity!

Defiant
I plead my case to you
Am I the only one left
To see the hands around your neck?
To scream when you're all deaf?
To eradicate the plague?
We hate, we don't understand
Am I the only one left
To see the rope around your neck?
To feel the future in your breath?
To love this broken path?
You think I don't exist?
Just take the high road
You think you've been through hell?
Let me see your scars
You think you're so damn deep
Just a useless waste
You know we're all waiting
Your downfall
On and on and on we sigh and no one notices
On and on and on we lie and no one notices
On and on and on we cry and no one notices
On and on we die inside and no one fucking cares
You will never see me again
Awakened
By the scars of life
Breathing
Chaos in tragic thought
Fiction
Reality bleeding through
Nothing
Euphoric feeling, ripped apart
You will never see me again
The Silent Opera, we'll make our stand
The Silent Opera, dead by your hand

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians!

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it. That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter.

The Indonesian act Kekal leaves no genre unturned, colliding black metal with industrial music with melodic post-rock on this stunning LP.
