I sit here in my dark cave
Deranged calling for affection
Chained up while my state con-caves
Just another mind injection
No one to scream my name
or help me through my deep dark pain
All I want is to be loved
or just something to be part of
All I ask is for one chance
To prove I’m not a monster who just sits here in a fucking trance
Theres no danger here don’t worry, no need to be scared
Just take the first step, grab the needle, and sew up the tear
The worthless drapes that blind your eyes
Impaired your vision, put me in this horrific disguise
Now all you can see is the dark inside of me
Shine the light upon my wrist only scars that you will see
There was a time
When our ghosts were aligned
You fucked it all up, shut me out
Destroyed my fragile state of mind
I hear your voice while I sleep
Its been a whole year, but I still weep
All the memories and times we shared
are coated with these bull shit lies
My appearance, the acid, incinerating eyes
A gloomy cloud of bitterness
engulfs me every day and night
All my distasteful thoughts
Paint a picture of your neck with a knife
All this fucking shit thats spoken
Makes me wish upon your death
Your heart so cold its merely frozen
On my face I feel your breath
Our bodies will be empty
With no love the hate is hefty
Holes in hearts can cause a pain
Contorting, twisting, mental strain
False conclusions
conjure up illusions
lasts eternity
Just like a tattoo, or a brand, that forms our entities
My body just a bag of bones
No place to go, or call my home
And all that the world sees in me
Im fucked up
Im worthless
My mind fights psychosis
Spirits sweeping
Ears still ringing
Unresponsive
Lethal conscious
Micro sleeping
Phantom creeping
Eyes now bleeding
Lungs stop breathing
What can I do to flee absurd emotions
that make me inject this hatred
killing sprees, I guarantee, you’ll die by me
Don’t fuck with my head one more time
Ill take a noose, cover your eyes
Break your bones, tear off your skin
Rip you fucking limb from limb
Understand why Im stuck here
Surrounded by these morbid thoughts
All i need is you, my dear
Without you my life’s tied up in knots
Our bodies will be empty
With no love the hate is hefty
Holes in hearts can cause a pain
Contorting, twisting, mental strain
False conclusions
conjure up illusions
lasts eternity
Just like a tattoo, or a brand, that forms our entities
My body just a bag of bones
No place to go, or call my home
And all that the world sees in me
Im fucked up
Im worthless
My mind fights psychosis
These are my final words to you
No one will ever know the agony that I’ve been through
Theres no cure, so my life keeps heading south
The only prevention is that you keep my name out of your fucking mouth
Two impressive vocalists, variable and skilled guitarists and a tight and very powerful rhythm section. That plus the ability to write a song really leaves nothing left to desire here. mourner
Symphonic stuff in metal doesn’t make its way into my collection aside from a couple of early Cradle albums. The orch here though just ads to how huge this band sounds. It makes elements in the songs more immersive. There are plenty of breaks from orchestration where its in deathcore/slamming brutality mode. While not ignorant, the songs never play with time or get mathy making it accessible and memorable. Came out 2015? Impressed. Mitch Mitcherson
Chicago deathcore outfit Into the Silo torch everything in sight on this searing new LP with riffs that will leave bruises. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 21, 2022
