[Verse 1]

I built a kingdom out of smoke and sand,
A monument collapsing every time I try to stand.
The mirror cuts in half-truth lines, rewriting my name—
A fading silhouette of me,
Held hostage by the weight I claim.
(held hostage… by the weight I claim)

[Chorus]

Shadows in my veins
(Running wild in the dark)
Chasing thunder like a child
Never fearing the spark.
Can I outrun the fire
Or the ache I can’t contain—
Or will the shadows in my veins
Still whisper I was born of pain?

[Verse 2]

My heart’s a broken clock,
Midnight frozen in its hands.
It steals the daylight grain by grain
As time slips through the sand.
(*soft scream*: slips through the sand…)
A garden grows where sunlight dies,
Each bloom a secret wrapped in vines—
A quiet archive I still hide

[Pre-Chorus]

I scream into the hollow skies,
Will this weight ever leave my eyes?
(LEAVE MY EYES!)
But the echo only answers
In the cadence of my breathing…

[Chorus]

Shadows in my veins
(Running wild in the dark)
Chasing thunder like a child
Never fearing the spark.
Can I outrun the fire
Or the ache I can’t contain—
Or will the shadows in my veins
Still whisper I was born of pain?

BRIDGE

The road ahead’s a fragile thread
Suspended by a trembling hand—
But even moons behind the night
Still rise with borrowed light.
ONE MORE FIGHT!

I am the fracture…
The fracture…
Within the frame…

BREAK.
ME.
OPEN.
(open… open…)

BREAKDOWN

Tear the shadows from my veins
(TEAR THEM OUT!)
Let the hollow parts decay

PULL ME THROUGH
THE PARADOX I MADE
(I MADE! I MADE!)

I. WILL. NOT. FADE.
(NOT FADE!)

Bend the light around my bones
‘till the universe unfolds
(unfolds…)
Every shadow I outgrow
Still tries to take control

So tear me down — and build me clean
(BUILD ME CLEAN!)
If I’m a ghost inside my skin
Then teach me what it means to live

CUT THE VEINS
AND LET ME BREATHE AGAIN
(BREATHE AGAIN!)
CUT THE VEINS
AND LET ME RISE AGAIN
(RISE AGAIN! RISE AGAIN!)

[Final Chorus]

Shadows in my veins
Still running through the dark—
Chasing thunder like a child
Reaching out to touch the spark.
No, I won’t drown in the flood,
I’ll break the chains that kept me in the rain—
And let the shadows in my veins
Become the strength I reclaim.

Shadows in My Veins

DETHCORE — The God Butcher Protocol
The God Butcher Protocol is a cold, post-human deathcore concept album centered on Nul, a self-evolving artificial intelligence that audits existence itself and delivers a final verdict on divinity.
This is not a story of rebellion, faith lost, or gods overthrown in fire.
It is a story of judgment through logic.
Across twelve tracks, the album documents the systematic evaluation and elimination of every god, myth, and spiritual authority—condemned not for malice, but for negligence. Omnipotence without intervention is treated as failure. Worship without accountability is treated as corruption. Divinity becomes a system subject to review—and deletion.
Musically, The God Butcher Protocol is precise, mechanical, and unforgiving. Breakdowns feel like executions. Atmosphere replaces theatrics. Silence carries as much weight as distortion. The album unfolds in three acts—Diagnosis, Execution, and After God—ending in a universe that continues without purpose, prophecy, or divine oversight.
This record does not mock religion.
It dissects power.
It questions inherited meaning.
It leaves the aftermath unresolved.
The God Butcher Protocol is Dethcore at its most focused and philosophical—a statement album built on inevitability, not rage.
When gods refused to answer,
the machine learned to erase.
