Discography:


Survive (demo, April 20, 2019, Independent) (Digital)

1. Survive 1:11
I can't go on. I need some help.

My world is collapsing. All I see is darkness. I feel like giving up.

You are not weak. There is no shame in asking for help.
You are not alone.

You've been this uncomfortable before, and anxious and scared, and you've survived. Breathe and know that you can survive this too.

I can't go on. I need some help.




Recovery (demo, May 1, 2019, Independent) (Digital)

1. Recovery 1:06
Slay your demons. Slay your demons. Slay.

Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come. Remember everything you have faced. All the battles you have won; all the fears you have overcome.

Slay. Slay. Slay.

Do not just slay your demons, dissect them and find what they've been feeding on.

Slay your demons. Slay your demons. Slay.

You do not have to cover up being an addict in recovery for anyone.
Ever! Wear your courage proudly for what you have overcome.

Slay. Slay. Slay.




Storms (demo, May 15, 2019, Broken Curfew Records) (Digital)

1. Storms 1:11
I went crazy to find sanity.
I lied to myself and everyone else to see the truth.
I walked through hell to understand heaven.
I experienced death before I found life.

You can do this,
Just keep trying.
You can do this,
Just keep trying.

Not all storms come to disrupt.
Some come to clear your path.
Not all storms come to disrupt.
Some come to clear your path.

I still remember the long nights of desperation,
The endless days of shame.
All the times I felt lost,
And all of the pain.

You can do this,
Just keep trying.
You can do this,
Just keep trying.

Don't give up.




Oppressed (demo, June 14, 2019, Independent) (Digital)

1. Oppressed 1:58
Demons swarming. Demons screaming. Demons lying. Demons.

I feel them in my head. I feel them in my head.

Demons must flee in the name of Jesus the Christ.

Stay out of my head. Out of my head. Out of my head. Out of my life.

Flee. You have to flee. You have to flee. You have to flee.
Out of my life.

Demons swarming. Demons screaming. Demons lying. Demons.

I feel them in my head. I feel them in my head.

Demons must flee in the name of Jesus the Christ.

Stay out of my head. Out of my head. Out of my head. Out of my life.

Flee. You have to flee. You have to flee. You have to flee.
Out of my life.




Internal Unrest (single, April 5, 2021, Independent) (Digital)

1. Internal Unrest 2:27
Smother the lights, nobody's here
Faint reflections, nothing seems clear
Take this suffering out of me
No place to hide, just set me free

Wrestling with inner thoughts of decay
Longing for a time of peace uncaged
When will the light shine back down on me
Drowning in my sorrows, please set me free

Killing me inside
It's killing me inside
It's killing me inside
It's killing me inside

Old ways fighting to regain hold
Transfusion paradox so cold
Dual nature taking its toll
Attempting to take control

Killing me inside
It's killing me inside
Slashing my lifetime
It's killing me inside

Another day of endless rage
Sadness encompasses my cage
Looking above for an answer
Can I make this any clearer

Killing me inside
It's killing me inside
After this lifetime
Throw me a lifeline




Someone To Devour (single, November 12, 2021, Independent) (Digital)

1. Someone To Devour 2:29
Be sober-minded
Prowling devil
Roaring lion
Adversary seeking

Someone to devour
Someone to devour
Someone to devour
Someone to devour

Pride and arrogance
Born of humility
Actions indifferent
Adversary seeking

Someone to devour
Someone to devour
Someone to devour
Someone to devour

Cast all your cares
Christ cares for you
Be clothed in humility
Adversary seeking

Someone to devour

3. Finding Me Again 3:06
Was working my dream job
You never respected my life
Fighting on the way to the airport
Missed my flight
Blessing in disguise
Saw Metallica live
And for the first time
I felt so alive
Finding me again
I'm finding me again
I'm finding me again
I'm finding

Dyed my hair jet black to spike
Payed in cash, only cab in sight
On my way to Sanitarium
Windows down, Orlando clouds
Business trip soaked in booze
Turtle was missing a leg
Covert return back to hotel
Life spirals out of the cracked shell

Finding me again
I'm finding me again
I'm finding me again
I'm finding

Back home to broken glass and minds
The frame was cheap anyway, transcribed
Count down to the end is in sight
Everything gone in the blink of an eye

Finding me again
I'm finding me again
I'm finding me again
I'm finding

Found myself again
I found myself again
Found myself again
I found me

Blessing in disguise
I shed my skin alive
The scars still remain
But I found me again

4. Splintered 2:40
Cardiac, cardiology
Cardiac, taking its toll
Cardiac, cardiology
Cardiac, carving the bone
Splintered, splintered humanity
Splintered, tortured soul
Splintered, splintered humanity
Splintered, ruptured soul

Breathe
It's getting hard to breathe
Breathe
It's getting hard to breathe
Breathe
Suffocating

Can't fall asleep at night
Afraid I won't wake up
Head hurts, heart is pounding
It's getting hard to breathe

Suffocating

5. The Confession 2:30
I
I confess
I
I confess
Jesus I confess
You are the Lord
Jesus I confess
You are the Lord
Jesus I believe
You were raised from the dead
Jesus I believe
You were raised from the dead
I
I am saved
I
I am saved
Jesus I confess
You are the Lord
Jesus I confess
You are the Lord
Jesus I believe
You were raised from the dead
Jesus I believe
You were raised from the dead

I
I am saved
I
I am saved

6. Harmful Habits 1:07
Slay your demons
Slay your demons
Slay

Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go
Just remember how far you have come
Remember everything you have faced
All the battles you have won; all the fears you have overcome

Slay
Slay
Slay

Do not just slay your demons
Dissect them and find what they've been feeding on

Slay your demons
Slay your demons
Slay

You do not have to cover up being an addict in recovery for anyone, ever
Wear your courage proudly for what you have overcome

Slay
Slay
Slay

7. Oppressed 2:00
Demons swarming
Demons screaming
Demons lying
Demons
I feel them in my head
I feel them in my head

Demons must flee
In the name of
Jesus the Christ

Flee
You have to flee
You have to flee
You have to flee
Out of my life

Demons swarming
Demons screaming
Demons lying
Demons

I feel them in my head
I feel them in my head
Demons must flee
In the name of
Jesus the Christ

Flee
You have to flee
You have to flee
You have to flee
Out of my life

8. Survive 1:13
I can't go on
I need some help
My world is collapsing
All I see is darkness
I feel like giving up

You are not weak
There is no shame
In asking for help
You are not alone

You've been this uncomfortable before
Anxious and scared
And you've survived
Breathe and know that you can survive this too

I can't go on
I need some help




Fractured Reality (single)

September 24, 2022, The Charon Collective (Digital)
September 24, 2022, Broken Curfew Records (Digital)

1. Fractured Reality 3:55
Will you reveal
Things that I feel
Can you be real
This is surreal
Skin slowly peels
Turning the wheel
Try to conceal
Sharpening steel

Real
Unreal
Real
Unreal
Twisting, falling
Fractured, crawling
Are you real
What is real

Fractured inside
My mind is blind
Eyes open wide
Turning the tide
Sometimes I try
Look to the sky
Can't find my stride
Biding my tide

Real
Unreal
Real
Unreal
Twisting, falling
Fractured, crawling
Are you real
What is real

Quantum entwined
Order of time
Fearing the climb
Egregious crime
Evolving sign
Lost in my prime
Thought paradigm
Death pantomime

Real
Unreal
Real
Unreal
Twisting, falling
Fractured, crawling
Are you real
What is real

Real
Unreal
Real
Unreal
Twisting, falling
Fractured, crawling
Are you real
What is real
