We are self-destructive hubristic monkeys curtailed by historical amnesia and endless greed.

Lyrics:

There's a knock on the door
Who could it be this late
We are going on a date
With the ghost of looming war

Destruction and plague
Are already here
With a countenance so severe
The signs are not vague

What a spectacle to behold
The whole planet is their room
Soaked in a deadly fume
We can't change the ways of old

Inexorable

Awakening of the night-time

The Cave Of Your Soul

On My Terms (Club version)

This track belongs to a series inspired by electro-industrial aesthetics from the 1990s. it is also the only track that I have ever composed on the Polyend Play.

Lyrics:

In the shadow of our cities
Concrete towers rise so high
We believe we're masters
Sovereigns of the sky

Underneath the steel and neon
Lies a truth we can't deny
Nature's always watching
Waiting for us to die

She brings the floods and fires
And rules the world we shred
We'll cave to her desires
In this grim path we tread

We dig and drill for riches
Take all that we can seize
We're bloodthirsty leeches
And carriers of disease

The clock keeps ticking
We're running out of time
To mend our ways
To heal the wounds we've left behind

Underneath The Steel And Neon

Part of an industrial metal / cyberpunk mini-album to be released sometime in 2024.

Lyrics:

I've mastered this con game
Adding fuel to the hatefest
As I weave my cunning nest
You are so easy to tame

The powerless I blame
Stoking fires of spite
Oblivious to their plight
I've no sense of shame

I craft what you believe
Blinded by my lore
Into your mind I tore
Like tender loin to cleave

Heed my command
Fill up your mind with bigotry
Into a wilder fantasy
I'll guide you by the hand

Heed to my command
Fill up your mind with bigotry
Into a crazy conspiracy
I'll guide you by the hand

The Grifter

Part of an industrial metal / cyberpunk mini album to be released sometime in 2024.

Lyrics:

Suits and ties, looking nice
Move your body to the corporate beat
While your soul is drowning in shit
Their stocks go up in price

Clocking in, clocking out
Dreams shattered in the corporate grind
The only thing you will ever find
Is the seed of a growing doubt

Locked in rooms, talking loud
Pointless meetings, a fucking charade
Stupidity is on parade
While yawning takes over the crowd

Endless emails, a fucking joke
Words that mean nothing, just corporate smoke

Ass-kissing pricks with their backdoor blows
All for some title as the bullshit grows

These motherfuckers play their wicked game
Trading our souls for their hollow fame

Corporate Bullshit Overload

Letra:

Bajo la funesta esfera
De un cielo en revolcón
Muy pronto la lumbrera
Se deshace en apagón

Susurran labios de falacia
Platitudes sin sentido
Al tiro se van al olvido
Podridos frutos de la mendacia
Encumbran el recorrido

Quienes buscan consuelo
En los ardiles del amor
Entre espasmos de dolor
Se atiborran de duelo
