Saint Nick's Open Palm (single, April 4, 2026, Independent) (Digital)

1. Saint Nick's Open Palm 3:57
In a world full of lies will I cave?
Or will I be the keeper of Truth?
A Truth worth losing life for
Will I cease throwing down my cross?

I could breeze comfortably through this life
To leave another corrupt rotten body
But to live for Truth requires suffering
Others mock and point and laugh
For they refuse to know
Others claim this very same faith
Yet slander God with lies

Death to heresy
Cast the lies to the flames
Death to heresy
I will not taint His holy name

Your feelings ache at the passion for Truth
I won't affirm the lies of those who run from Christ

The very same who claim
To love the True, Living God
Will deny His divinity for the praise of others

God forbid that ever be me

Humble me if I ever exalted myself
If I cling to pride and lies




Demo (April 12, 2026, Independent) (Digital)

1. Welcome To Van Buren Street (Intro) 2:26
We are Israel

The gates of hell will not prevail

2. Saint Nick's Open Palm 3:57
In a world full of lies will I cave?
Or will I be the keeper of Truth?
A Truth worth losing life for
Will I cease throwing down my cross?

I could breeze comfortably through this life
To leave another corrupt rotten body
But to live for Truth requires suffering
Others mock and point and laugh
For they refuse to know
Others claim this very same faith
Yet slander God with lies

Death to heresy
Cast the lies to the flames
Death to heresy
I will not taint His holy name

Your feelings ache at the passion for Truth
I won't affirm the lies of those who run from Christ

The very same who claim
To love the True, Living God
Will deny His divinity for the praise of others

God forbid that ever be me

Humble me if I ever exalted myself
If I cling to pride and lies

3. Are You Asking God For Protection From Bigfoot? 4:43
Oh pure Mother
I run to you again
A wretch before the Queen of virgins
Implore your Son to help me
I've ran to the mud again
After just having bathed in the heavenly water

Running for protection under your veil
You bring my pleas to the almighty throne

Heaven's most pure queen
Your chastity abhorred by this sinful world
Conceiving with no defilement
Pinnacle of obedience

Surpassing the angels
You who conceived the Lord made flesh
Lady Panagia
Implore His mercy

The Saints look to you as their intercessor
See me beneath them all
A great cloud of witnesses
Lifting me with prayer

Hedonist that I am
I feel so low before you
Immaculate purity
Victorious over sin

Assist me and deliver me
Protect me from the enemy
And make me an inheritor
Of blessed life eternal

4. Dead Bart Returns 4:28
Great abyss, I stare
Why do I turn away?
I wanted this
I wanted to go astray
Oh burning fire
All consuming God
Let me find comfort
Take not away Your grace

I leave behind a dirty trail of iniquity
As I look ahead into a deep grave

Death, your sting has been erased
It is your grave I also stare into
But still the fact remains
I will become dust again

Another day slips by
What have I offered?
Another selfish lie
As the grave gets closer
All I can do is plea
To You, Consuming Fire
I need your mercy
A sinner approaching his grave

I call upon You Christ my God
Smashing the gates of hades
Undoing the curse of death
Smashing the artillery of Satan

There's a gate in hades smashed to pieces
There's a God whose mercy endures
There's a cloud of witnesses to hear me
There's a moment right now to repent

So let me go in peace
When it's all said and done
Let me take up this cross
And grant me the strength to carry it

Lord have mercy on my soul
Release me from death
