I condemn you to burn In your own words: Burn When there’s smoke there’s fire If the holy walls could talk they’d conspire I deny your divinity The bastard baron of a broken faith All I see is a sickness and waste The blackest heart hides a blacker soul The sharpest cross calls the twisted home Sacred Mutilation, privileged molestation The highest high for predatory infiltration Bow down, give praise A cloaked pedophile gets his raise Bow down, give praise A knife below the ribs, twist it longways Disembowel On your knees holistic pathetic bitch You’re so weak, I’ll end you with one slit Blood gurgles; face smacks the fucking floor One quick move; your god is at the door Shove a knife in every eye turned blind You monsters paint it like its one of a kind Disembowel Slumped in the house of god Blessed in the blood of a dying priest Slumped in the house of god Ichor streams from the darkest release Slumped in the house of god

Parasocial Parasite Always lurking out of sight I was paralyzed When I realized the length you’d go to Looking through the glass, analyze the past Obliterate the observer I found a leech and I need a blowtorch Snuff out the rat with a ten ton boulder Total retaliation for the invasion Leave you unrecognizable Day after day You’ve watched my every move Year after year Your time is coming and it’s coming soon Like a worm crushed in the dirt There is an implicit understanding I let you in, but you only take and take and take I can’t handle my privacy invaded Terminate Pull me back and sink your teeth in Take me shake me break me reformed in shit Retaliation for violation Crush the parasite Destroy every part of you Obliterate Retaliation Two shots to the back of the head

Why should I be in danger because you can’t control yourself Don’t you dare put the burden on me How could you live so selfishly? Your lack of planning Your lack of foresight Your lack of reason, of insight, it ends tonight Your final vows are written under a streetlight So fuck the paramedics that will find your mangled body So fuck the little kid who never saw you coming I won’t feel the void you leave behind I won’t feel any regret for cheering your demise Every drunk driver is a fucking target Every car wrapped around a tree gets no sympathy You threw it all away And for what meaningless end A brief moment of convenience, gone So fuck your grieving family who will never quite find peace So fuck the bystander who’s pain will never cease No Cure Straight Edge Die Slow Fuck You Straight Edge Straight Edge to my dying breath No Cure Straight Edge Die Slow Fuck You

When I caught you in the act I didn’t know of the full extent Sordid deception with malicious intent But there’s a knife in my back and you won’t make eye contact Betrayer, deceiver Look me in the fucking eyes Don’t I make you just a little bit nervous You know it, I see it, believe it Your quickened pulse gives you up Do you think I’m fucking stupid I see the subtle way you grit your teeth A faint reminder of the shit you eat Putrid orifice, diaphanous disgust I can’t bury this Blunt force trauma It could be a hammer to the back of the god damn head It could be the last straw that winds you up dead And I'll make for certain that you'll get yours with a bullet in the head I need to see you broken in a different way I need to inflict a pain that will never quite fade away You won’t see me coming

I am going to outlive you It takes time to take it back I exist to undo the wrongs you’ve scarred upon this tainted earth No escape, I want to feel every pain at any cost All restraint, I want to remember every moment before it’s lost Straight edge is self preservation Commitment to permanence I embrace my strength in silence There is no cure for those that use a crutch to justify hurting another I don’t care how you want to live if it’s at my expense (or another) There is no cure No hell left but home A body A curse A vessel A herse There is no cure Self preservation straight fucking edge I’m here to show you there’s more than one way to bleed No escape, no more tricks up your sleeve Trim the fat from the meat of the herd Another bone breaks under the weight of your word Every moment Trim the fat from the meat of the herd More air for me to breathe once you’re back in the dirt No Cure For The Stainless Steel Permanence

Did you do it on purpose? Does it matter either way? Snuffed out like a douter to a candle Extinguished in an instant Brutal indifference The wind keeps blowing Cold, faint, and yet serrating Cut me to the bone My stomach drops And it never gets easier It pulls me back Old wounds reopen Why can’t I breathe The gentle hands of god Cold and callous Gouging my eyes out The unfeeling judgement wrought It didn’t notice the pain it brought Suspended from the ceiling Strangled in the sheets Wrapped around a tree Suffocating blissfully I’m left here alone Ripped, torn; severed consciousness Another dead friend gone before the good part Another tainted casket slowly ripping me apart I can’t take another dead friend God damnit It pulls me back

about

This is our longest and strongest offering yet. We made this in between tours and in ways its a documentation of a very transitive time in the band. Our EP Cursed From Birth took us from doing local shows and weekend runs to touring heavily all during the making of this record.

I also had to record the vocals with broken ribs because I only had the time I had to do it. I went to see Rhythm Of Fear (awesome and goated band) I caught a boot (how embarrassing for me).
