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
