And so the night begins, at 15 past 8
Where pleasure can be bought at discounted rates
Wretched and weak will call this place home
Skin will be bought, souls will be sold
Con says, “We are staying late!”
“Barkeep! make us a drink!”
We are both 12 drinks deep. Con turns and says,
“You know that we are getting close to the end.
You need to come to terms with what this all means.
Nothing is left. No hopes, no dreams.”
I close my eyes and let the whiskey take hold
Tonight is the night where we loose control
(You know the truth)
I reach for the gun I have in my coat
(It is done)
And let the cold grip spoon my warm palm
(Now it's time to go home)
Con says, “It is time to ditch this place,
(Pay the whore)
Pick yourself up and leave a tip for the drinks.”
We get to the car, good night for my last drive
No need for things like seat belts and stop signs
This two lane street has turned to four over night
I guess my misery is my guiding light
I pull up, we kick the door in
Up the stairs we go to find her in my bed with him
None of their screams can save them from what’s to come
With the gun to my head Con whispers, “Welcome home.”

Porcelain Casket

I have dragged myself up and down this shore
A white ceramic tiled beach all to myself
The moons that aren’t burnt out mockingly shine
On the lawless waves of my porcelain casket
The rising tide rips over the edge
My ocean is overflowing with means to an end
It races thru the cracks in the sand
A red carpet laid out just for me
The veins burst with temptation
Of being lost at sea
Now every night I spent alone is gone
I dive in the eternal abyss
Death’s cold hands pull me in
Washing all isolation away
And I know I should be kicking and screaming and trying to pull away
But for the life of me I can’t see how death isn’t the only way
Liquid fills my lungs and I know this is where I’m meant to stay
Now this new mistress is loving and caring and nothing Ive had before
A lovers arms wrapped tightly around me, never leaving me begging for more
Her devotion to me is never ending and I will always and forever be hers
As the lights fade away, I softly sink with her
Our new home is here together

Descent

Tell me, do you see me in your dreams
Is there an underlying theme to this insanity
The past you left behind you
For a future that is undefined
A better life is something you will not find
This crushing depression
That has plagued you all your life
Has now swallowed me whole
All the stories we read as kids
Never told us that happy endings hurt like this
I think I’m finally ready to end it all
Tell me, was this river so dry
So barren and drained
That you knew it was void of life
Will you ever be okay
Or will things constantly be the same
Can you live like this, day after day
Can you please tell me
What is the point of being here
If the best part of me was never meant to stay
Now the only songs that are sung
Are whispered from brown bottles with love
Telling me whats left to come isn’t worth it
The only affection I feel
Is the warmth from a promise to completely heal
With a kiss on the neck from this coarse rope
Can you tell me, are you restless at night
Are you gasping for air when you turn out the lights
Could you hear me when I was on my knees
Begging to be free from my anonymity
Did you see me on my rapid descent
Or did you notice that your hands are red
You know, this was never how I thought it would end
Tell me, when you stand at my grave
Do you still tell yourself that you made no mistakes

Blessed are the leeches that feast on my corpse
On a welcoming bed made of dirt and photos of yours
Every drop that they drain
Takes me further away from the deafening pain
As my cold body decays
Time devours the memories of yesterday
As you keep watching the sun chase the moon
Think of me when you scratch scabs of your wounds
And I hope your tears
Taste as sour as the words
That you seemed to have no trouble at all feeding to me
One day the vile filth
You exhale with every disgusting breath
Will melt the mask you’ve hid behind your whole life
The mask you’ve hid behind all your life
Any thought of me will fade in time
Like your worth did so long ago
But I know the fingerprints I left on you
Still burn your skin
And the ropes that still tie you down
Were tightened by my dead hands
You are a disease, you will die alone

Orange Mathematics

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly. Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant.

The Molten Larva is one of, if not THE MOST, pissed off track(s) I've ever heard thus far..
