lyrics

In circles i wander these plains
In circles i wonder where i am
These weary eyes beg for sleep, but if this light burnt out
It would mean the end of days

It is the deceiver and destroyer
A crux within my heart
That which gives momentary breath
Just to take it away

I never leave this wretched place
Its hold on me grows stronger every day
Gather wood to feed the flames
Tattered soul doomed to fade

A song incoherent to my ears
Drifts in through the cracks
Sanity dwindles with each passing day
It fades with the sun

My body grows weaker
For I've sought my demise
Thou shall not dine off my back
Nor shall anyone imbibe from my sweat
I am worth more than mere hours
Worth more than the garbage i produce

It's here i go to heal
It's here i go to die
It's here i go to feel
It's here i'll go to die

In circles i wander these plains
In circles i wonder where i am
These weary eyes beg for sleep, but if this light burnt out
It would mean the end of days

It is the deceiver and destroyer
A crux within my heart
That which gives momentary breath
Just to take it away

Decivilize

supported by 5 fans who also own “Ensnared”

Decivilize : contre la ville qui nous empile, rangés dans des boîtes ; contre cette torture qu'est le travail (c'est déjà dans le nom) ; contre la flicaille qui tue pour protéger ce système ; contre la théorie du genre ; contre les fascistes et aussi contre la gauche. Decivilize : contre la séparation entre les genres musicaux avec du death/black metal hardcore ; contre les structures plan-plan couplet/refrain/couplet/refrain et des pistes qui dérapent. Storm of Sedition : la destruction totale. Jordan Vauvert
