New Game (2020)
1. FOR HONOR
I have served you faithfully
All I ask is remember me
2. THE HALLOWS
To live is to die
Entrenched in a sacrifice
I’ve always prepared for this day
Stand aside my child
Forfeit my soul for your sake
This battlefield
Is my hallowed ground
Lay down
My life
Stay down
Discarding the cloak of a liar
Lay down
My life
Stay down
Oblivion awaits
A cursed mask defined me
I bore the full brunt of your hate
Shoulder this burden
As an unwilling villain
I’ll choke on my tears in your name
This battlefield
Is my hallowed ground
Lay down
My life
Stay down
Discarding the cloak of a liar
Lay down
My life
Stay down
Oblivion awaits
Lay down
My life
Stay down
Discarding the cloak of a liar
Lay down
My life
Stay down
Oblivion awaits
3. THE STRAIN
My pupils are dilating
I can feel the hunger rising
As I shred my broken nails through your quivering flesh
Gnashing teeth
Around your throat
As we tear you limb from limb
Run screaming to our deities
From catastrophe that we have made
Apocalyptic arrogance
Has sealed our fate
Pestilential consequences
A devil in a needle with a trial in a vial
This plague is tailor-made
Release the strain
It’s coursing through my veins
I’ll never be the same
Watch through crimson eyes
And ask the heavens
Why
Why
Harnessing the chaos
Are a million rotting hands
We had no choice in this decision
Or the path that has been laid
A writhing chorus beckoning
To feast on life while threatening
Enacting wretched vengeance
Is the only recourse left
Run screaming to our deities
From catastrophe that we have made
Apocalyptic arrogance
Has sealed our fate
Pestilential consequences
A devil in a needle with a trial in a vial
This plague is tailor-made
Release the strain
It’s coursing through my veins
I’ll never be the same
Watch through crimson eyes
And ask the heavens
Why
God Why
THE STRAIN HAS CHANGED
It’s coursing through my veins
I’ll never be the same
Watch through crimson eyes
And ask the heavens
WHY
4. SLAVE TO THE SPECTACLE
You can’t breathe
Unless you feed
A thrall that’s enslaved
To a pointless need
Feast your eyes
On gilded lies
This empty facade
Is your dream’s demise
Always crave more
Nothing else is worth living for
Observe the specimen beneath the glass
Claim your days
You’ve chained your wrists
And clenched your fists
You want the rewards
Without the risks
An empty husk
That hunts for crumbs
The glass and the light
Has left you numb
Always crave more
Nothing else is worth living for
Observe the specimen beneath the glass
Claim your days
Catalyst for jealousy
Bound by lust for what you see
Catalyst for jealousy
Bound by lust for what you see
You’ll always crave more
And more
You’ll always need more
And more
Observe the specimen beneath the glass
Claim your days
5. FOR ME, IT WAS TUESDAY
