*Raw Vocal Writing Demo - No Alignment, No Pitch Correction. 

Music: Sisters of...
Lyrics and Vocals: Molitoth
------------------------------------

Just you wait. Blessed your soul as time should fade, a calling for a cry.
Without an open wound I feel the pain, dispositions end denied.   
It looks just like you.  Don't go away, duel it and see.
Look over but don't fall into the fire, and never recycle as a slave.  Lay with me, pray and sleep. You will never be let down. You'll forever see it through.  I'd never say never.

If you honor listening. If you honor feeling.
I am all around you, I'm in every little thing.
If you pull up from your grave would you hold up to see me?
I'll tie a rope around you and never let go.  
Breathe now, take it in. Breathe now, let it out.

What we knew yesterday doesn't feel the same.
And when you come down from your sound cloud, I'll be waiting to embrace.

(2013) Sisters of... "Follow me as a Ghost" (Vocal Demo)

This is what my demo vocal to "Sisters of... - Sister Chance" is starting to sound like. 

-------

A calm to kill, but time waits still alive.   A watch tick past the warning, adaptive paradigm.
Release at will, obsess of thirst inside and caress the heed that harbors upon this subdivide. 
I don't mind the blame. 

(2014) Sisters of... "Sister Chance" (Vox Teaser Clip)

Lyrics and Vocals: Molitoth
------------------------------------

Come gather round, un-shade the blind, and partake a medium.  Soon we will learn, adapt, and fight this life of denial. If only you could make a fire from a lie or pry my mind from inside.  False hope; it searches me alike and the wish betrayed is mine.  Is this what your moving towards? Is this what you feel? Is this what it looks like?  Tell me what haunts you, show me the monster.

Souls going down are engraved into our minds.
We won't conform and so we paint the room the color of your heart.  The color of you.

I'll go out with you and we'll cross the line of life. I'll lay next to you in the tire of this fight.  I'll pass away with you because I'm better by your side. I'll grasp the hand of you as we float into the light.  We are so calm and deny to die alone.

(2014) Sisters of... "In a Sea of Red Strands" (Vocal Version)

Music: Sisters of...
Lyrics and Vocals: Molitoth
------------------------------------
With so familiar tongue speaking and with such peculiar sight adoring. Welded eyes will beg for sight. Undersized, intolerant minds damn this place. A creeping stick before the bite, we long in turn for more rules to live by.

Crawl inside my life if doubtful, I can be your guide.
Don't act surprised if what you've come for is suicide.
Let me be the one to save you, if they come around.
Why would you eat the shit they feed you, when you can flush it down? ...and wipe away. Hush. Excuses come again.

I'll be fine If I can cast away these sins of mine. They're holding me down to face the blame. To destroy regardless, we'll Break away. I'll be fine, If I can sweep away these doings of mine. They're Pulling me down; to embrace the flame, to Ignite a conscious. We'll burn away.

Play along this lonely road.
Excuse me; excuses. Stall. Alibi.
They come again. They want another. 
They come again to say:

"Break my heart with stick and stone. Inert the void to die alone. Lose grip this life that comes to end. To live the same is different. Conceal the state of excrement. Indulge and vest the diligent. And feed the knife that cuts in need. Betray your faults as you weep. And tame the beast inside of me."
-Sleep.

Vox & Lyrics by: Molitoth
-------------------------------------------------

I have the feeling we're falling apart now at the seam.
I thread the needle to build you the stitch you crave.
I've been playing a guessing game long out of reach.
So determined to make you stay.

A push to lull.  A version to hide away.  A certain product of loss.
      
Questions left alone. 
Seize the time, pry our eyes, fulfill the void.  
Answers never known.  
Forfeit, atone, and sacrifice. 

We unwind a weave that's thinned away. Let go.
Shed our skin to shift us past these ail impressions.
Leave behind a manner broken down. 

A step too slow. A touch too long for escape. A vice deferred to contemplate.


(2015) Ensonica - "The Summit" (feat: Molitoth)

Here is a peak at how vocal writing starts out for me.  This is the raw and distorted sound I typically start with when discovering melodies, before all of the re-recording/layering and production. 

Music: Trinity Avenue
Lyrics & Vox: Molitoth
----------------------------------
So ornate within these failures strung alone. 
So unravel from the thread you hang and fall.
You'll wear this curse. I'll incubate.
Contentions in my shadow serve me give and take.
Reflections in my window deplete this sight of shame.
You slide right down my spine. You hide.

(2015) Trinity Avenue - "Melancholia" -Partial-(Rough Vocal Demo)

Music: Sisters of...
Additional Keys: Mario Quintero (Spotlights)
Lyrics and Vocals: Molitoth
------------------------------------
A lonely surrogate. A path deserted by the wayside, steps forgone.
Lonely paralyze. We can close our eyes, and hide real calm. 
Lost in variance; a tickle from the whisper in your breath.
Fly home! But did you ever listen? 
You never saved; better just a memory after loss. 
You never blamed; bitterness will physically end this lust.
Go now and feed the parasite. Make me weaker, fuel this sacrifice.
Fair my disbelief. Lid another lie. Call me incomplete.
And you sway it all to dispel our love.
I never wanted to be a sinner for all to see.

(2016) Sisters of... "Adulescentia" (Vocal Version)

Music: Acle Kahney (Tesseract)
Vocals & Lyrics: Molitoth
---------------------------------------------
A gaze upon your flesh are grounds amidst obsession.
A look most admired. Deception grows.
Your games defy to coalesce a part of me.

I've let this plague the inner of me, avow this living in quarantine.
This skin will molt in a need to excrete, you feed my need to amputate.

A kiss upon your breast remains a baneful weapon. 
A cease around desire. Caress these woes.
Your claims deny to confess a pardoning.

I've let this get the better of me, right now I'm bathing in gasoline.
My blood escapes as I beg to replete, let go and my body dissipates.

All alone inside a dream.
I stand lonely in these void hands, ensnared within your demands to be rescindable.
 
I won't let you break away. I won't let you make disclaim.

---------Lyrics-------------
I can't deny the sacrifice I am harboring. The grief repletes my inside.  I dissolve use and deprive all ties to everything, yet still afraid to let go. 

It's so cold. Insensate. We watch as these tears fall and the prominence fades. 
So stay calm. Stay quiet inside. To release the pressure, I mark a canvas of thirst. I'm withered dry. Without balm it's not evident. I'm contained if coerced or victimized, so I bite the snake to cease the sibilance.

Show your hand. Roll the dice. Send a sign. Expose.

So alone. Dissipate. I fold as the hope stalls and consciousness shades. So be calm. Be riant you tried. To live under pressure. The pressure of sacrifice. My consciousness shades and the prominence fades.

Demo

Harbor Wave

(2019) Lahara - Harbor Wave

My time has come and I get what I deserve.
You can't run away. You can't escape.

And you say that I've done wrong.
And you claim that I'm insane.
My time on rewind.

I've felt an urge for touch but my concern has numbed.
I built this bridge on trust and it's all been burned.
You can't run away. You can't escape.

You've had enough.
And you say I've gone wrong.
And you pray that I'll be saved.
My time on my mind and I'm a throwaway.

The Tribunal

Incarceration

(2020) Incarceration

Exploring condensed meditation techniques to help balance the anxieties that stem from feelings of confinement, entrapment, misjudgment, and accusations.

Meditation (Guided)

(2020) Meditation (Guided)

How long I've known that my bliss is rotten.
Uphold the flaws for sake of reason.
Giving in so long my urge expires.
I still comply to the demands of love.

My denial has me blind.
Showing me the facts, covering up the truth.
I'm a liar in your eyes. Confound.
Not without the comfort surrounding you.
Provide an alibi someone.

Acknowledgement

(2020) Acknowledgment

This is a cover of "Send me an Angel" by Real Life.

Do you believe in Heaven above? Do you believe in love?
Don't tell a lie, don't be false or untrue. It all comes back to you

Open fire on my burning heart. I've never been lucky in love.
My defenses are down. A kiss or a frown, I can't survive on my own.

If a girl walks in and draws her name in my heart, I'll turn and run away.
Every day, we've all been led astray. It's hard to be lucky in love

It gets in your eyes, It's making you cry.
Don't know what to do.
You're looking for love, calling Heaven above.

Send me an angel right now.

Empty dreams can only disappoint In a room behind your smile.
Don't give up. You can be lucky in love.

Send Me an Angel

(2020) Send Me An Angel

These frames are built to fabricate. Instilling all the fault you see. 
Expecting me to tolerate the lies. 

There's no surrender.  
They want to break you down. They'll come to find you.  
They want to bring you down. They'll come to bind you. 

The time has come to plead our case. To face the claim, to clean our cage. To free the sin, we kneel and pray. Wash away, meditate.

The traps were set to captivate.  Misled by paths, we disagree. You know the guilt remarks our own mistake.  So contrived.

There's no forever.
They want to tear you down. They'll come to bind you.
They'll come to drag you down. They'll come to find you. 

And you show resent for every move I make.
And you know these cards are stacked for loss.
And you don't consent for any breath I take.
And you won't allow release.

So peel the layers from your eyes as the silence ushers in the parasite.
Expose the treason within your lies. The consequence falls on me. 
 
You submit to insincerity. Twisting your integrity.
The smell of arrogance... still searching for some empathy.
You lavish infidelity. The title of judge you're crowned.
Opinion of a sinner, just as me. Well, the joke's on me.

Don't let your guard down.  You'll be a casualty; another martyr.
They push the fallacy; find the facts withdrawn. Impede supremacy; violate in order.

Verdict Cope

Meditation (Mindfulness)

(2020) Meditation (Mindfulness)

In the blink of an eye you're fast asleep behind the wheel.
Keep your foot on the gas to fight the drag that slows you down. 
Driving your life through tunnels that seal behind you.
Behind these years you hide your tears, as you look in the mirror. 
You show in the mirror. You gaze in the mirror. You dance in the mirror. 
Take a look at yourself.
You stare in the mirror. You grieve in the mirror. You laugh in the mirror. 

I'm driving some winding road.

Self Reflection

(2020) Self Reflection

You want to spite me. You want to quit upon this love. 
You can't deny it. You can't fool what's in your heart. 

I would sacrifice what's mine; let it all go for you.
I will devote to coincide; tear down my walls between us.

You've come to cease me.  You taunt, delude, and misjudge.
You're too stingy. You're too cold to burn the grudge.

I would pacify your mind to let it all go. It's true.
I will seek to compromise; bring down my walls between us.

Never had enough. Never had to draw the line.
Never dealt with giving up. Never said goodbye.

You're afraid to tie the knot and I've burned the rope. 
A blaze that eats the way like rust. We erode.

Pacify, Clarify, Rectify, Purify, Justify, Sanctify our love.

The Departing

(2020) The Departing

I hold the hate to fill the void within my hands.
You want admission. A confession.
I'll wear these scars to pay the debt of your demands.
You want conviction.

You're faulting/blaming me on assumption.
Venting words to speak, but I won't testify.
You're mocking/insulting me in silent fashion as I walk the gallows.

You're taking time to say goodbye.
We lived. We loved. Accept and nullify.
You're wasting time, so say goodbye.
You lived. You loved the game.

You're fooling/framing me with illusions.
Set the trap with bait and exploit with no alibi.
You're tricking/playing me and deny your actions. 
If you knock I'm hollow.

Interrogation Frames

(2020) Interrogation Frames

"Confessional Lock" is the first single from Concept album "The Tribunal" by Molitoth.  Released digitally on June 26th, 2020!

Lyrics:
They won't catch you, not a thing to hide.
They can't buy blame without an asking price.
So bare the air as you fight for breath.
So unaware, we exhale regret.

We're Hypnotized. 

And I won't tell.  I won't mention anything. 
I won't say no, but I won't mention your name.
I won't convey.

They don't feed you, not single bite.
It's too late for begging with the end in sight. 

You don't tell. You don't mention anything.
You don't say no and you don't mention my name. 
Don’t speak a thing of me.

We're all in limbo.

There's consequence if we both confess.
No sense to turn on each other. 
We can hide until we find cover.
We can lie to live another day.
