Embrace The End Album

Hemorrhaging from every orifice
Eating at your misery
Choking on your own decrees
Spread the disease
Your words are vomit and reek of fear
Tunnel vision!
Close your eyes as you cast the first stone
Bow your head, turn your back, and lock the doors

When the lamps burn out, they will come for you

The light invades my eyes in stabs of fiendish bright and to what do I owe for this brilliant burning deception?
Macabre maddening docility
Day after painstaking day
Control
Hallucinate the biography of a fever
In empty silence
Scattered notions
Sweet nausea
If my mouth could marry a hurt like you
Open swallow
These bones hold a stillness longing for death in its purest form
Longing for death
Begging for an end
A Fate farthest from salvation
All I am is pieces
Shuddering through this nightmare
In a starched white shroud
Soil the gown
Lingering warmth
Fall back in despair
Would that it was me on my back
LyricsAching for hours on into weeks
Wind sweeps over everyone
Collapse
Repeat
Wind sweeps over everyone
Broken
Rebuilt
All I am is pieces
Shuddering through the nightmare
Wandering avenues lit shocking white
Lined with fluorescent lights
If my mouth could marry a hurt like you
Hollow cries of misery resonate down the halls
Penetrating your will to live
Their worthless pleas mean nothing
And have no effect on me
My indignation rises and I have no sympathy
Our pain is the only thing I feel
Only tragedy can touch us now
Only disaster brings us to our knees
I awake
All I can see of the morning is the whiteness of the tomb
And all I can taste is disease in the doorway of infirmary
Aching for hours on into weeks
Weind sweeps over everyone
Collapse
Repeat
Wind sweeps over everyone
Broken for the last time
Only tragedy can touch us now
And our friend disaster brings us to our knees
The stagnant stench of the sick
Permeates the room
An angel in a mask hovers above the bed
My eyes are sealed shut tonight
For I can't fucking bear the sight
As machines breathe the life into your veins

Tonight you better wear your funeral dress
And I'll dress in burial drag
'Cause this one is to the end of an era
Now fate is gnashing at our heels
And soon we must succumb
We'll be the scapegoats for generations past
Born into this grave
With heavy hearts we march hand in hand
This is the bed that they have made for us
This is the cross that they have hung us up on
This our trophy
What's left of divine corpse
Arteries harden
Stain crimson soil
From which we began
Oceans run black with the fuel of our wars
Vultures descend from looming clouds overhead
Let us drown in bile
Antibiotic genetically mutated hormones intravenously ingested
Infest and infect the same womb that bore you
Burrow inside and sustain on the flesh
LyricsForce feed the giver of life with the shit of our excess
This is the bed that they have made for us
This is the corpse that they have hung us up on
This is our trophy
What's left of the corpse
Tear the silver shovel from clamped corroded teeth
Gnawing on the fingers of the hand rthat feeds
Wading through shallow vomit
We widow the faithful
Bathe in the blood of the land
Hang every martyr and stone every prophet
Fuck on the fat of the mother
And we're all staying warm tonight
Parade us through the city piling all your transgressions on our heads
And our shoes made of stone will drag through the streets of shame
With every step a lifetime passes
With every inch a mile flashes
Prodding on to the river to cleanse our filthy hearts
Stumble down muddy banks and wash our sins away
Life is not your resource to exploit
Just sit and watch as this vulgar rape ensues
Tradition dies slowly and all of this is lost on you
Infest and infect the same womb that bore you
Burrow inside and sustain on the flesh
Force feed the giver of life with the shit of our excess
So raise your glass
We're all staying warm tonight
We drink the wine and we piss in the well

As the mother coughs up blood the wide eyed children encircle
Paint the walls with the blood of innocence
You wear the execution mask
Intent on the preservation of your worthless way of life
Be fruitful
Multiply
The minds of our young are rotting in the sun
Our lives decompose on the vine
The ghost of our culture will haunt this earth forever
With heavy hearts we march hand in hand

Lost in the swarm deteriorating with the bset of them
But every sweet breath
Breathes the question
Will you be too cold to hold my hand?
Or will you just let go?
I know when you say forever it's like broken glass on your velvet voice
Tear a hole in forever and die in your arms
So I invite you to walk the fire
Burn your beautiful fingers
Pierce this delicate skin
Arms tied behind your back
Torch this fucking town
Burn every memory
Burn it down
And let the ashes dry your tears
Redemption
Ignite this wretched monument
With unwavering stride
We will leave it all behind in a beacon of flames
If for one precious moment I could rest my tired eyes on you
In this bellicose world my eyes are blurred and you're all I see
LyricsLet the past be forgotten
The years have worn our hearts callous
Standing before you impoverished
All I am
For you I would seize the knife
Lay down this white cloth and offer my veins
Distill the life in me
But still every dying gasp breathes the question
Will you be too cold to hold my hand?
Will you just let go?
I know when you say forever it's like broken glass on your velvet voice
A cold dead center
The stale air infects our lungs
And I find myself drawn to the flames of your last irresistible blaze
Signs that as long as I'm breathing I'm yours
Diseased by imperfection my hope

[No lyrics]

Everything is closing in with irrational certainty
Awaiting any chance of reckless abandon
With eager arms outstretched
The stage is set
Waiting and wanting
When each future yesterday ends the same way
All that surrounds
Panoramic anxiety
You can find me
In the eye of the storm
Fumble and falter on familiar empty words and I swear I've seen this one before
Any solace is fleeting
Ever seeking tethered hearts and storyboard dreams
Forfeit
God help us all
The curtains are closing
Our backs against the wall
All meaning vanishes
Draining away with every ounce of motivation
Worthless and weak
Relish in our own defeat
This time has gone to waste and where are we?
These velvet wings frame a scripted ending
Lost alone on a doldrums sea
So lie back down
In an empty bed of praise
Set your sails
And drift away

Blackened halos hang heavy over shell-shocked eyes
Love is a war my friend
Open wounds
Open the flood gates
Open the gates
A counterfeit contentment
Countdown to the day
Life is a war my friend
With every step you take
It takes you farther and further away
It takes you further waway
So let the truth bleed
Let it be whispered from one thousand dying breaths
Poisoned hope
You speak of justice as you turn your head
I refuse to burn with you
To rot in all your decadent decay
False martyrs for empty fights
Defile sacred ground
Blood runs thick through clenched fists
Words of regret
LyricsVindictive cries
Rotting heroes and wasted lives
A battle cry lost on the horizon Betray
Betrayed
Hands clasped together
Pulled up by the roots
Bleeding from their throats
There never was a tomorrow
A battle cry lost on the horizon
Betray
Enotmbed in these forgotten catacombs
Slowly dying with a frigid smile
The malignancy of your hate
Tempest tried and tortured
Stumbling through the potter's ground
With a grin
Plagued by contempt
From where I stand
It's not hard to see that it's never been alright
Lost in a dreamer's valor
I refuse to burn with you
I refuse to rot in all your decadent decay
Now your wings have been tainted
Take the plunge
Sift through the refuse
Feast on the fodder
Feast on the spoils
Ask yourself
Do we jump or drown?
Bleed or burn?
Because in the end
Even the greatest hero dies
Sift through the refuse
Feast on the fodder
Feast on the spoils
Powder-stained and battle-scarred
I dare you not to forget
Temptest tried and tortured
Left to die from the inside fucking out

So tear out this bitter heart
Baby let the blood drip from your hands
This is all I have
Days to come
Wounds to heal
Wounds to heal
Like the blood red moon
That illuminates
Her deceiving eyes
Nothing could be more beautiful than a promise broken under a winter's night sky
Nothing could be more beautiful
I pray for floods to wash these bridges away
To pull me under and never let me go
I drown in you
Is it that easy to forget?
Is it that easy to let go?
So let the floods take me away
So tear out this bitter heart
Fallen for a promise
With a taste of deceit
And water filling my lungs
I say goodbye
As you turn and bid me farewell
You run your fingers across all my fears
And down my insecurites
So let the floods take me away
Let the frigid water fill the spot
Where my heart once was
Fallen for a promise

Justify the malevolence
Nullify betrayal
A soft moon rises igniting a world below
Dear father rotting above
Cast a shadow of doubt through me
Taste the fucking blood from my mouth
The vulgar display of charity you bestow
Hear me mother shining below your sun-parched flesh offers me no warmth
Defiled by the lusting blades of every lonely suicide
Every screaming heart that ceases to beat
Your skin has grown porous yet we shed not a tear
Always looking straight ahead
An empty vessel
Our heads laid across the slaughtering block
With no remorse
Forever silenced through the pale
In every darkened corner the sound of the axe will resonate
Unforgiving
Through every star-spangled eye the line becomes blurred
With finger on the trigger
Reliving the horror each night
LyricsA victim
Lost forever
A burning effigy of who you once were
Quench this ineffable thirst to be whole again
Blind leading the blind
Raped and castrated
The blind leading the betrayed
The pain of chasing phantom limbs
Even through morphine eyes you can still see what's inside
Now carry this addiction
A monument to a heroic heart
To be whole again
All This time
To be whole again
Bleed me of this agony
My infallible deception
Amputee of the heart and by design
Beware
The shepherd has the teeth of a wolf
Bastardized deliverance
No pomp or pride bestowed
Only broken lives waiting for the bell to toll
