JUDAS
Blood pig
Blood pig

eye'm sorry
eye'm ugly
all that i am and i can never live up
eye'm failing
eye'm angry
afraid of the ways they pretend to be us
its fuct up
eye'm different
wurdz remain my only escape
art saves
all of me
evolving
and NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY!
EYE'M SO AFRAID AND NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY
EYE'M so ASHAMED AND NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY

map mange ou sans sel

II.
my mistake
was trusting you
blood pigs, with creating my fate
with poetry and suffering
i cannibalized every ounce of my pain
eye'm still afraid, everyday
these greedy worms - they devour my plagues
eye'm not your slave
eye'm conquering
you see me rise AND NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY!
EYE'M NOT ASHAMED AND NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY
EYE'M NOT AFRAID AND NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY

YOU CAN'T HURT ME ANYMORE
YOU CAN'T HURT ME ANYMORE
fed from the wound from which we were bled
vomiting filth in our soft cave heads
chewing on tissue, tendon and fat
destroying the things they do not UNDERSTAND!

TYRANT
BETRAYER
PARASITE
TRAITOR
and still u feed them
and still u need them
eye'm sorry
eye'm ugly
dangerous, can't describe it enough
eye'm failing, eye'm angry
i use my fear to empower my hate
eye'm fuct up
eye'm different
wurdz remain my only escape
art saves
all of me
evolving
and NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY!
eye'm not ashamed AND NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY
eye'm not afraid AND NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY
AND NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY
AND NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY
AND NOW YOU'RE WALKING AWAY

MAP MANGE OU SANS SEL

MY MISTAKE
WAS TRUSTING YOU
BLOOD PIGS WITH CREATING MY FATE
WITH POERTY AND SUFFERING
I CANNABALISED EVERY OUNCE OF MY PAIN
EYE'M STILL AFRAID EVERYDAY
U STILL SUCKLE MY PLAUGES
EYE'M NOT YOUR FUCKING SLAVE
SO WHY YOU WALKING AWAY?
BLOOD PIG!
WHY YOU WALKING AWAY?
BLOOD PIG!
WHY YOU WALKING AWAY?
BLOOD PIG!
WHY YOU WALKING AWAY?

Buried Alive (back to top)

i speak in verses
prophecies and curses
i speak in verses
prophecies and curses

i hate my life

no miracle is coming (hate you)
it's just a hole (hate you)
nothing's wrong with you (hate you)
must maintain control (hate you)

everyone's asking questions
no place is safe
i'll forfeit resurrection
to escape the pain

i hate my life.
i hate my life.
I HATE MY LIFE.
i hate my life.
I HATE MY LIFE.
i hate my life.
I HATE MY LIFE.
i hate my life.

i speak in verses
prophecies & curses

this storm of thorns is growing (hate me)
there's no end in sight (hate me)
chaos claws my jaw (hate me)
and incites a mental riot (hate me)

i'm in the mouth of madness
with a tongue of poetry
i ate the spine of Atlas
now the world is crushing me

i hate my life.
i hate my life.
I HATE MY LIFE.
i hate my life.
I HATE MY LIFE.
i hate my life.

BURIED ALIVE BEHIND ENEMY LINES
SURROGATE CHILD FOR THE SINS OF ALL MANKIND

BURIED ALIVE BEHIND ENEMY LINES (buried alive, buried alive)
BURIED ALIVE BEHIND ENEMY LINES (buried alive, buried alive)
BURIED ALIVE BEHIND ENEMY LINES (buried alive, buried alive)

FOR THE SINS OF ALL MANKIND!

Emptee

(i, emtee)
(so emptee)

eye remember suffering
eye remember feeling the sting
of childhood and injections
holy bruises
sweet infections
soaked in a stew like drowning cockroaches
whose only crime was the greed of inherent hunger
u know where eye'm fragile
u know how to kill
u know where eye'm fragile
u know how to kill
how to kill

kill all fall away
all fall today
all fall today
all fall

today

i can't keep this rage in me
can't keep pretending
can't be this emtee
anymore
i can't keep this rage in me
can't keep pretending
can't be this emtee
anymore
i can't keep this rage in me
can't keep pretending
can't be this emtee
anymore
i can't keep this rage in me
can't keep pretending
can't be this emtee
anymore

i can make it go away
i can make it go away
i can make it go away

Hooks and Splinters (back to top)

YOU FUCKING PARASITE!!
I'LL BEAT YOU TIL YOU DIE!!!

it hides inside me
IT HIDES INSIDE ME!
IT HIDES INSIDE ME!

SIC SEMPER TYRANNUS!

EVERYDAY YOU DECAY
In chains, dismayed
broken soul, splintered bones
ghost-children

in their graves, SOLD AS SLAVES
unstable, GREEDY FLAMES

life is a sacrifice
a seven inch slice
the still born WASTE
OF A SUICIDE CHRIST

i'm learning to like the PAIN

I HOPE YOU DIE
WE, BROKEN PEOPLE

it hides inside me
IT HIDES INSIDE ME!

everything is dead
everyday is black

word becomes flesh
bloodied, burned and scratched

EVERYTHING IS DEAD
EVERY DAY IS BLACK

the face i wore was yours
as i launched this self-attack

HYPOCRITE!
HERETIC!
BLASPHEMER!

in pain
INSANE

a bullet in the head
a knife wound in the
i cried, as my innocence DIED

i cried
AS MY INNOCENCE DIED

death will have mercy
i won't

here in the serial killer holy land
it's not over
it's not over
we've only just begun
like a fetus on the floor
like an addict wanting more
like a sex slave ... crying and sore

i want to smell the violence
i need to see you bleed
take me inside your soul and make it weep for me (i need to believe)

I WILL SIT!
I WILL WAIT!
I WILL MAKE!
NO MISTAKE!

FROM SLAVE TO MASTER!
I'VE BECOME THE HYRDA!
MORE HEADS & VENOM!

IT HIDES!
INSIDE!!
ME!!!

HOOKS & SPLINTERS!
HOOKS & SPLINTERS!

IT HURTS TO EXIST

Suicide Trees (back to top)

1.
i spent my whole life
in love with despair

kept my lungs full
with the breath of their
mute atmosphere

i became what i hate

and thus shall i remain
to give birth to a mighty assassin
armed with a weapon of words

to defy the lies
to never compromise

no
today, my name .... is pain

2.
i stood
beyond the world

whispering secret syllables
in the eyeless dark

dancing wildly
round and round on the rotting ground

surrounded by the dead dusts of Hell

this is how i delete myself
and this is how i corrupt everyone else

obey
obey
betray
betray

you are not unique.
you do not need to think.
take it, take it!

i will,
i will ... i will.

you succumb, so nicely (like an insect staring back, like a dying dove)
my love ... my love

Song.
so here we are again
the sheets are stained & bloodied
the animals scratch at my skin
here we are again
my face is scraped and bloodied
i've nothing left to give

i wasn't there
i'm not involved
i'm innocent
it's not my fault

i wasn't there
i'm not involved
i'm innocent
it's not my fault
i wasn't there
i'm not involved
i'm innocent
it's not my fault

here in the suicide trees
here in the suicide trees

(no. bloody, bloody, bloody, MURDER!)
among the excrement of my sins
it's not happening, it can't be happening, it's not happening

so here we are again
in secret ceremonies
changing shape, amen.

here we are again
pretending not to notice
the illness sneaking in

i wasn't there
i'm not involved
i'm innocent
it's not my fault

i wasn't there
i'm not involved
i'm innocent
it's not my fault
i wasn't there
i'm not involved
i'm innocent
it's not my fault

here in the suicide trees
here in the suicide trees

toil and labor
hate your neighbor
faith in favor
obey!
toil & labor
hate your neighbor
faith in favor
obey!

OBEY
OBEY

here, do as i please (obey)
here in the suicide trees (OBEY)

here, do as i please (obey)
here in the SUICIDE TREES (OBEY)

HATE YOUR NEIGHBORS!
HATE YOUR NEIGHBORS!

(the animals scratch at my skin)
it's not happening, it's not happening
