Started this song as b-side from our album 'Beginnings End'. Didnt fit the time frame I was writing lyrics based around. Wound up keeping it to use on a new EP that has turned into the new album 'Signifying Last'. Song is pretty much done. Just an insanely hard and raw industrial metal song steeped in frustrations and angst... But arent they all! 

LYRICS:
Vanity came calling, parasite of nature
Feeding from them, using their eyes
Self indulgence was the obsession
Its what drove the hunger within

Hid your feathers well with wings of scales
Serpent or Angel, your venom was death
Claim your trophy, inject the poison
Serpent or Angel, blessing or decay

All the followers bow down in praise
Never to see what lurks behind the veil
Consume the given, bite the hand that feeds
Divinity and bile, worship with betrayal

Hid your feathers well with wings of scales
Serpent or Angel, your venom was death
Claim your trophy, inject the poison
Serpent or Angel, Blessing or decay

Vanity came calling, parasite of nature
Feeding from them, using their eyes
All the followers bow down in praise
Never to see what lurks behind the veil

Hid your feathers well with wings of scales
Serpent or Angel, your venom was death
Claim your trophy, inject the poison
Serpent or Angel, Blessing or decay

Serpent Or Angel

Updated the drums with more variety and messed around with mixing a bit more. Still have to write the lyrics for the bridge, but its coming together fairly quick! Overall Im quite happy with how the song has turned out!

LYRICS:
Crossing the road, the last time
That last thought, that last breath
Where did time go? Where did it end?
Why was it you that had to leave him?

When it leaves us, far behind
When it leaves us, far behind
When it leaves us, far behind
When it leaves us, all far behind

Sharing a life, far too short
You left here without me there
Giving a promise so sadly broken
Touching so many, and leaving painfully

When it leaves us, far behind
When it leaves us, far behind
When it leaves us, far behind
When it leaves us, all far behind

BRIDGE (havent written anything yet)

Watching the death, consume the strong
So uncomfortable, legs twitch hands lash
Fighting for breath, all violence all the loss
Leaving behind all those who loved him

When it leaves us, far behind
When it leaves us, far behind
When it leaves us, far behind
When it leaves us, all far behind

Signifying Last

When It Leaves DEMO

Shortened the choruses a bit, song flows better now. Still need to get the bridge finished, will happen one day. But for now... This is as close to complete as its gonna get until Bert comes on over and lays down a sick metal break down riff! 

LYRICS:
Trapped in a corridor of blissful failure
Guided by the light of pale red
Stumble down the path toward absolution
Finding the key in a book of prologues

Existing in the now and never
The downward spiral of scarlet strands
Forever trapped in a web of being
Contribute to the death of life

Opening a door to life unknown
Consumed by this crimson matron
Sacrifice for all while fading darkly
Swallowing the pill adorned in truth

Existing in the now and never
That downward spiral of scarlet strands
Binding a soul with a string of red
Submitting to the death of life

BRIDGE (to record)

Existing in the now and never
The downward spiral of scarlet strands
Forever trapped in a web of being
Contribute to the death of life
Existing in the now and never
That downward spiral of scarlet strands
Binding a soul with a string of red
Submitting to the death of life

Death Of Life (DEMO)

Another track written about my ex in 2004. This is one of the heavier songs Ive produced. The lyrics were meant to be just flat out angry. Was going for an extremely filtered PIG/Skinny Puppy feel with this one!

07 - Bury the Ghost

LYRICS:
Buried and forgotten
The worms of the Queen are dead and gone
A broken figure stands triumphant
Bloody, bruised tired and sore
A gentle hand reaches out from the ruins
Veiled in white, pure and whole
Promising a life so rich and unholy
Go with her, heal thy wounds

Bury the ghost, leave it behind in its grave
For a life once lost, that ghost had to die
Bury the ghost, let it go curse someone else
Never again to show its face
Let it go burn, burn in hell

Come with me and heal those wounds
My precious soul, we will fly away from here
Your battle is done, your war has been fought
Come with me, take my hand
Let us leave this broken land

Bury the ghost, leave it behind in its grave
For a life once lost, that ghost had to die
Bury the ghost, let it go curse someone else
Never again to show its face
Let it go burn, burn in hell

Come with me and heal those wounds
My precious soul, we will fly away from here
Your battle is done, your war has been fought
Come with me, take my hand
Let us leave this broken land

Bury the ghost, leave it behind in its grave
For a life once lost, that ghost had to die
Bury the ghost, let it go curse someone else
Never again to show its face
Let it go burn, burn in hell
Bury the ghost, leave it behind in its grave
Let it die, let it die, let it die, let it die
Let it fucking die, let it fucking die
Bury the ghost, leave it behind in its grave
Let it die, let it die, let it die, let it die
Let that fucking ghost die

06 - Resigned to Fail

LYRICS:
As the pillars fall, as the world bleeds
As the sunlight dies, never be resigned to fail
As the pain grows, as the voices cry
As the heavens shatter, never be resigned to fail

Torching all the books, beheading all the statues
Wash away the filth, abandon all the lies
Burning all bridges, tearing down the walls
Leaving this world, raining in blood

As the pillars fall, as the world bleeds
As the sunlight dies, never be resigned to fail
As the pain grows, as the voices cry
As the heavens shatter, never be resigned to fail

Painting over murals, leaving that god behind
Step on the worms, crawling to light
Falsify all worship, burn away the throne
Waste away in time, let the queen decompose

Torching all the books, beheading all the statues
Wash away the filth, abandon all the lies
Falsify all worship, burn away the throne
Waste away in time, let the queen decompose

As the pillars fall, as the world bleeds
As the sunlight dies, never be resigned to fail
As the pain grows, as the voices cry
As the heavens shatter, never be resigned to fail

05 - Unto the End

LYRICS:
Unto the end, we are granted choice
Unto the end, we are granted our own voice
Unto the end, we are bound by fate
Unto the end, we are blessed by loves own hate

Here he stands, thru it all
The last choice he is to make
Breathing in sulfur, lies and rot
He watches this world burn
In his chest, the heart is still
In his veins, the blood is black
Once a man, now a shell
Make this choice, never look back

Unto the end, we are granted choice
Unto the end, we are granted our own voice
Unto the end, we are bound by fate
Unto the end, we are blessed by loves own hate

Unto the end, we are granted choice
Unto the end, we are granted our own voice
Unto the end, we are granted choice
Unto the end, we are granted our own voice

Terrible things, happen alone
Terrible things, happen alone
Terrible things, happen in the mind
Terrible things, happen inside
Terrible things, happen alone
Terrible things, happen alone
Terrible things. terrible things
Terrible things, happen inside

Find a way, make this plan
Gain their trust, learn their ways
Planting the seeds of lies and hate
Tolling of the minds, of this land
Digging into earth, his fingers bleed
His mind wanders, his thought breaks
Once a shell, now a monster
Walk this path and never look back

Unto the end, we are granted choice
Unto the end, we are granted our own voice
Unto the end, we are bound by fate
Unto the end, we are blessed by loves own hate
Unto the end, we are granted choice
Unto the end, we are granted our own voice
Unto the end, we are bound by fate
Unto the end, we are blessed by loves own hate

04 - Destroy the Rejection

LYRICS:
Sever all ties to hells law
Worship a ghost that doesn't exist
Bow down to that false god
Traps himself in exile
Pray for the return
Of all faith, of all hope
Desire christening, of the velvet rose
Beginning for release
From all pain, from all ties
Binding him to his flesh
Tear away unneeded lies
Take your breath before you pass away
The remnants of, a life once lost

Fuck the cause, destroying what rejects him
Fuck the cause, destroy rejection
Fuck the cause, destroying what rejects him
Fuck the cause, destroy all rejection
Fuck the cause, destroying what rejects him
Fuck the cause, destroy rejection
Fuck the cause, destroying what rejects him
Fuck the cause, destroy rejection

When the dead, take their toll
Is when the queen, makes herself known
Buried in the bodies where she left him
Is where the martyr spreads his wings

Buried in the bodies, buried in the bodies
Buried in the bodies where she left him

Sever all ties to hells law
Worship a ghost that doesn't exist
Bow down to that false god
Traps himself in exile
Pray for the return
Of all faith, of all hope
Desire christening of the velvet rose
Beginning for release
From all pain, from all ties
Binding him to his flesh
Tear away unneeded lies
Take your breath before you pass away
The remnants of a life once lost

Fuck the cause, destroying what rejects him
Fuck the cause, destroy rejection
Fuck the cause, destroying what rejects him
Fuck the cause, destroy all rejection
Fuck the cause, destroying what rejects him
Fuck the cause, destroy rejection
Fuck the cause, destroying what rejects him
Fuck the cause, destroy rejection

03 - Led to Paradise

LYRICS:
Follow unto them so blindly with their words
Follow unto them so readily in tears
Follow in their footsteps with his blind faith
Follow in their teachings like a lamb to slaughter

Led to paradise with bloodstained hands
Falling to his knees, in search of salvation
Crying to the sky where he only finds lies
Cuts out the disease, cuts out the cancer
Led to paradise with bloodstained hands
Betrayed by their teachings, betrayed to his soul
Building up the walls to shut out the lies
Cuts out the pollutant, cuts out the infection

Follow unto them thru the nine circles
Follow unto them with sadistic affections
Follow in their lies to escape the regrets
Follow down their paths of solo crucifixions

Led to paradise with bloodstained hands
Falling to his knees in search of salvation
Crying to the sky where he only finds lies
Cuts out the disease, cuts out the cancer
Led to paradise with bloodstained hands
Betrayed by their teachings, betrayed to his soul
Building up the walls to shut out the lies
Cuts out the pollutant, cuts out the infection

Led to Paradise

02 - Crawl to Light

LYRICS:
Rip apart his earthly flesh
And tear away at his soul
Eat the candy from his eyes
Force the heart worms down his throat

The queen lays her eggs, deep down inside
The queen she lays her eggs, the worms they crawl up to light
The queen lays her eggs, down deep inside
The queen she laid her eggs, the worms crawl out, out to die

Condemned to his shallow grave
The martyr feels the worms writhe and die
He sheds his skin. crawls out from earth
To seek his rebirth, he spreads his wings

The queen lays her eggs, deep down inside
The queen she lays her eggs, the worms they crawl up to light
The queen lays her eggs, down deep inside
The queen she laid her eggs, the worms crawl out, out to die

If death comes looking, he will be waiting
This queen of heart worms shall burn in hell
Burn the queen, bury the queen
Death to the queen of heart worms

The queen lays her eggs, deep down inside
The queen she lays her eggs, the worms they crawl up to light
The queen lays her eggs, down deep inside
The queen she laid her eggs, the worms crawl out, out to die

Crawl to Light

01 - Intro

LYRICS:

Dearest Listener,

Sometimes to close a story, one must begin the venture to come full circle. Know that we as vessels often harbor demons, skeletons, lies and truths that leave scars internally. The beginning is sometimes viewed as the end... while the finale can be seen as the door to new pathways previously shrouded.

Knowing of Fallacies coming, and Traumas Post... proceeding to this Beginnings End will shed light for some, while overlaying a shroud of darkness for others.  With all of this said, the stories of destruction and rebirth have come full round to finally close this triptych of disharmony.

So ends this tale in its beginnings...

Sincerely yours,
Lennon Midnight
