LYRICS:

Awoken on this day by the melody of a hush
This voice soothes as does its softest touch
Justice won't be done in speaking what I want to hear
Rather truth, self-evident, is what I've come to fear
Another day in the life of the bleak
Simplicity is the comfort I seek
Finalize routines, collapse again into debt
Certain standards for achievement must be met

Another day in the life of the bleak
Its the extreme comfort I seek
Collapsing again into debt
Certain standards for achievement must be met

A king without a country
A ship without a sea
A gun without a bullet
A statue I can't flee
All of this falls around me with a lack of gravity

The lights dim low, blacked out from the start
This stage comes into place, piece by lonely part
Distant our goal, yet within our reach
Beauty this rich a near impossible feat

**Knees giving in to the state of pressure
Mounted on my back, the world, with no measure
Belittle, force, and flaunt our ideals
Till they counter with a collection of steals**

Force and flaunt our ideals
Counter with a collection of steals

**A king without a country
A ship without a sea
A gun without a bullet
A statue I can't flee
All of this falls around me with a lack of gravity**

Another life
Another mind
Another hymn without a rhyme
Placed within the pages, between the lines
Faked for countless ages
Find them now
Painting their own hell

Find them laying with the enemy
**Under a dark veil
Find them laying with the enemy
**Painting their own hell
Find them laying with the enemy 
**Under a dark veil

**A king without a country
A ship without a sea
A gun without a bullet
A statue I can't flee
All of this falls around me with a lack of gravity**

A king without a country
Forgotten memory 
A rose unplanted never grows to spread its seed
Step back 
Question these analogies
To find yourself denying what you believe

🗣 Lyrics:

Here I lie
Clinging to this breathe of eternal life
Inherently blind, apparently kind
To those who conformed well before their time
Crucified, for the betterment of mankind

"𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘢 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘢𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘦, 𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘺, 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘱𝘵𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘦"

I won't die
For an ignorant, flesh-feeding, heretic's fight

"𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘥𝘰 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘴𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘥"

I won't die
For the betterment of mankind

From the cradle to the grave
Misery and agony follow in my oppressive wake
Bow to the debt collector, an executioner

"𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘮𝘢𝘺 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘨𝘰𝘥"

For a lack of better words, a murderer

Justified sacrifice to cover up these severed ties
Witnessing the delusion of these dreams as we march, tooth and nail
Witnessing the division of ill-faded hearts, their truth will fail

Resurface again and again

Witnessing the deception as we breach, only freedom we hail
Pull out from under the weight of a life destroyed

Resurface resurface
Again and again
Resurface resurface
Again and again
Resurface resurface
Again and again
Resurface resurface
Again and again

Jonesy Christ

This style fuses the blunt-force intensity of hardcore punk with the crushing weight of modern metal. Guitars hit with metallic precision—down-tuned, distorted, and built for breakdowns—while punk’s raw speed and ferocity keep the momentum relentless. Drums shift between blast-beats, double-kicks, and rapid-fire punk rhythms, creating a sound that’s both chaotic and controlled. Vocals swing from throat-shredding screams to aggressive spoken shouts, carrying themes of rebellion, frustration, and cathartic release. The result is a hybrid that feels confrontational, loud, and unforgiving—music designed to hit hard and leave nothing standing.

BROKEN JOY RITUAL

I grasp nothing

[Intro – Whisper → Scream]
Written… written in ash…
E F I—

[Verse 1]
They forged you in silence,
from volt and sacred code,
the architects of firmware
on the ancient motherboard road.
Your kingdom booted lightning—
your banners lit the sky.
The BIOS bowed before you…
UEFI would never die.

[Pre-Chorus]
But legends crack like circuits,
and myths can catch a spark—
fTPM was the ember
that swallowed every dark.

[Chorus]
UEFI! Written in ash!
Carved in the scorch of a fallen past!
The Great Fire of fTPM
turned every boot to black.
UEFI—your throne collapsed,
but your ghost still haunts the stack.

[Verse 2]
Your GUID halls lay shattered,
your tables burned to crust.
The scrolls of CMOS trembled
as your firmware turned to dust.
Checksum angels fled the sector,
the kernel lost its voice—
when fTPM ignited
and fate revoked your choice.

[Pre-Chorus]
No backup in the heavens,
no flash to make it right—
just ashes in the chipset
and fans howling through the night.

[Chorus]
UEFI! Written in ash!
Carved in the scorch of a fallen past!
The Great Fire of fTPM
turned every boot to black.
UEFI—your throne collapsed,
but your ghost still haunts the stack.

[Bridge – Breakdown]
Reset the jumper—
your kingdom's gone.
Clear the NVRAM—
the myth lives on.
From sector zero
to the highest tier,
UEFI whispers:
I AM STILL HERE.

[Final Chorus]
UEFI! Written in ash!
A legend born, a legend smashed!
The Great Fire of fTPM
burned every ancient cache.
UEFI—your shadow lasts,
etched forever in the past…
UEFI—
written
in
ASH!

The Legend of UEFI

American metal band based out of Atlanta Georgia.
