Oasis (EP, May 4, 2024, Independent) (Digital)

1. Electric Chair 2:21
Unfortunately I have awoken again
Still a slave to this fetid temple

Slowly decaying as I watch
And feel everything slowly disconnect

The room is dark and broken down
I can smell my flesh as it turns brown
I am like a worm, never dying

Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig
Fall upon your knees and then you
Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig
In the hole you're gone forever

Bound to the earth
The beatings begin
The flesh is torn from my fingers

Their cries of laughter echo my unheard cries within

I could not move my mouth, even if I still had one

There is no past, there is no future, there is only this moment

I will never sleep, I will never sleep, I will never sleep
Stay awake
I will never sleep, I will never sleep, I will never sleep
Stay awake

I will never sleep again
And this moment brings me pain

My eyes, dry as clay, will not blink, turn to gray
I am forced to stare ahead

2. The Immortal Frame Unchanged 2:31
Mankind's hubris left unchecked
Arrogant foolishness
Arrogant foolishness
Grabbed his neck

Swallowed by the earth
In the bellowing deep
Where the walls are wet
He begins to weep

Suspended upside down
Blood fills the head
And makes him drown
His struggling for breath
Is the only sound
That precedes his death
In the cavern's embrace
Safe in the shadows' keeping

Lights are out
This is how it ends for you
No escape
Oh God I can't take it
Paralyzed
Loss of circulation
Human decay

Sliding faster, sliding further
He can't even feel his legs
Heart is working overtime
Pumping blood between his eyes

Echoes of despair
In the darkness, he'll keep well
The immortal frame, unchanged
Safe in his stone cocoon
For such a long, long time
No more harm can now befall him
An endless appetite
Flesh and sinew are consumed

Only bones to mark the passing
Sealed away from earthly woes
An itch to join him in my mind
To find the bliss far down below
I must go and try to find him
To make his cavern my new home

My hands are stretched in front of me
Now I will become joined to him evermore
Made immortal
I will die alone

3. Oasis 3:20
I'm shaking as I free myself from the hooks
Digging into my arms, hanging me from the roof
My body shaved and cold, I'm covered in filth from head to toe
I need to escape, he'll be back soon
Hobbling down, I see oasis ahead
A sparkling pool in the dead of night
Not a soul to be found, am I truly alone?
My mind has gone numb, and I let out a moan
Time to pollute this lake with my decrepit body
Convulsing uncontrollably as I slip beneath the surface
Holding my breath, but with my eyes wide open
Nature whispers, a cryptid, with dark enticement, luring me to swim deeper
I have nothing to lose, so I happily oblige
Pressure increasing on my ears, bulging out my eyes
Her voice grows louder, a sirens song my mangled brain is desperate to find
Finally my foot touches the bottom of the vast expanse
There is only dark and hollow misery
I've found my god at last
The sweetness of her song has dragged me to the bottom
Forcing water in and out of my lungs
Flailing my limbs as I breathe my last




Exsanguination (EP, November 7, 2024, Independent) (Digital)

1. Straight To Black 2:21
I wonder what you dream about
When you're lying there alone
There's no one there to pick you up
You've turned them all away

I wonder what you dream about
When you're lying there alone
No one to pick you up
You've turned them all away

You're lying there
Making a mess of yourself
Can't even lift your head on your own
Willful, intentional ignorance
Permeating your existence
A string of bad decisions leads
To a vomitous mess on the floor

Give an inch, you take a mile
Slipping into the dark again
Fall asleep, never wake up again

Narcissistic tendencies
Meet a relentless chemical dependence

A deadly combination, leading straight to black

2. Exsanguination 3:18
Exsanguination of a corpse comes first
The body is far too rigid, and unable to be moved
Laying in the cold dark on a gurney, awaiting analysis
I resist as long as possible; I have waited too long
If I cannot bend this stiff to my will, then I resign to my failure
The boiling water is prepared, add the arms to the boil
Cut
Let them soften like pasta
I must look within to find it, that which I desire
Looking for the Worm, the Worm of God
I can hear Him calling me
He yearns to be set free, I must break his chains
Last time I searched for weeks but returned with nothing
Will this time be advantageous for me?

It has been 7 hours boiling in my cauldron
But the voice has gone silent
The Wisdom of the Worm
The Worm of God
Before it fades to nothing
I am closer

Fear grips me as I begin to seek, to find
I hear a whisper, the whisper of the Worm
I desire his secrets

I was trying hard to get inside
But something deep down in you died
Overdose, come back, survive
Breathing but you're hardly alive

I was too late to retie
The cords of your heart back to mine
We would always pray you'd survive
But what's the point when your life's a lie?

3. Child Of The Flies 2:46
The disassociation
Ever playing on my thoughts
I am like an insect in many ways
I feel every pinch and prod

Crawling through my head
They're hiding in the corners of my mind
So bright
Fly into the light and watch it die

Little legs on my spine
Antenna itch in my ears
I want to fly into the light and die
Like a moth caught in desire
A blissful ending, knowing nothing
Of the pain that awaits
Never knowing a moment's peace

Sweating like an ox
Being swarmed by flies and mosquitoes

Crawling through my head
They're hiding in the corners of my mind
So bright
Fly into the light and watch it die

How beautiful are the hands that built this cage for me

Crawling through my head
They're hiding in the corners of my mind
So bright
Fly into the light and watch it die

4. The Bad Samaritan 3:04
I feel nothing far down deep inside
I feel nothing while I rob you blind

I'm a nice guy, just a regular guy
But I've got a little secret
That I like to hide

Keep your eye on your keys
I'll make it very hard to find them
Just as soon as you leave
You'll realize you're missing critical items
EpiPen: gone
Insulin: gone
Gasoline: gone
Your phone: gone

Watch how fast I can drive
I'll take your car and leave you stranded down on 295

And you better hope you never overdose around me
I'll take your coat, your shoes, your shirt, your pants
Everything

I'll rob you blind

You can try and try and try and try
You can die and die and die and die
You'll never get them back
And I'll never give a crap

You will never know what's wrong with me
And I don't want help

You will never know what's wrong with me
And I don't want any help

I'm a menace when I smell weakness
I'll hurt you as much as I can
Don't you know life isn't fair?
I'll make you understand

I don't care if you have something nice
It should belong to me

It's mine
Give it to me

5. Wendigo 1:21
There is something in my window
A strange voice, it speaks to me
There's a creature drawing closer
Please leave me be
If it gets inside
Nowhere to hide
