lyrics

Abandoned. Left behind in a maze.
A labyrinth with no way out.
Here we are, no road map.
Clamoring for a compass (no compass)
while I plea for someone, for something,
to bear witness to our plight.
With eyes affixed on the sun tho shining ever brightly,
sharing no insight winds whisper secrets in concealed tongues.
Longing for order, or even the illusion of order
to make sense of this torment.
Canvassing time and space.
Memories of expectations set, expectations never met.
Life lived through the lens of normalcy.
But nothing is as was imagined,
and the rabbit hole, the rabbit hole grows ever abysmal.
Grasping at straws, half-answered prayers,
foot prints we find lead nowhere.
Desperate for a sense of home.
Desperate for a sense of wholeness,
anything to take away, the loneliness.
Somehow I suspect the answer sought lies within.
And within is where we will create new worlds
and bright futures out of old ideas.
Forging faith from broken blueprints.
Somehow I suspect the answer sought lies within.
As far as the east is from the west,
I’ll walk this path until my last breath.
As far as the east is from the west I’ll walk this path until my last breath.

This album is electric. From the first track it's nonstop chaos and fun, and was a great way to start my journey into thrash metal and hardcore. spencer_mjeh
