Fury

My downward spiral
All becomes bleak
Through shifted momentum
In the palm of your hands
With the blades that you forced through me
My misery feeds
Incite the violence
Disconsolate in my fevered furor
Unable to push past all that's left me staggered
Anger and fury
My conscience consumed
My guilty obsession
I only want to ruin you
My anger, my fury
Pain forged in fire
That won't stop burning
(Burning me down)
Vicious intentions
They fester and torment
(Acting out, I've been venting)
So sick of the hurt
(Lungs numb from the screaming)
No one hears a word
(The only way that I'll get through)
Is with acts of violence unsanctioned
In my pain and anger I've succumbed to the gloom
Let myself sink and swelter, kept emotions subdued
There's only so much ache and anger I can take until breaking
MY FURY

Letting blood in waves of noise
It pacifies the mind and purifies
For a fleeting moment
Every thought will die
A momentary collapse of consciousness
Absolves the ache
But when the bliss subsides
And it all comes back
Amygdala over-sensitized inundates again
Overwhelming
Stone cold to the touch
An effective mirage
Don't let them see the illusion
At skin, paper thin
Blotting out the vein
To satisfy with a subtle taste
Of clarity, to equivocate
Emotion taunting me
Blotting out the vein
To pacify, strain unnerving
Vociferously attempting to give peace
To the dejection coursing through my bloodstream
Cleansing wounds
Breathing in the fucking poison
This feels like Hell
Underneath the fucking dirt
This feels like Hell

Cold (The Soil Beneath)

You are a perfect example of
Everything I swore
I would never become
Alone, abandoned
Heartache thrives here
Misery's companion
Exhausted from the thoughts
That manifest behind my eyelids
I don't get it
How you could be so cold
How you could be so indifferent
To walk away, to disappear as a ghost
I found the source of my grief
It stems from the roots
It's in the soil beneath
And it won't come loose
I'm still here
Your mistakes were met without consequence
Alone, abandoned
Heartache thrives here
Misery's companion
Mastering in the art of repression
The sorrow is swelling
Behind my eyelids
Wake up

Cut the neck
Three heads grow back
Such is life, unrelenting
Oppressive on the backs
Of those who choose to live with eyes in the sky
Meticulous dissection of self image is a partial catharsis
Not enough to cauterize the wound
Forever confined to the wall of noise
All attempts to be heard are drowned out
In dissonance
Painting portraits of pain and purpose
Losing composure
Cracking on the surface
Blistering thoughts derived from fear
Always consuming me
Always here
Lying on a barren bed of roses
The ground beneath demands flesh
Nothing's sufficient enough
Sacrificing self in hope that something will flourish
Before the point of death
Lying on a barren bed of roses
Growing complacent
Dying inside from the rot
Such is life, unrelenting
A droning shrill forever suppressing
Punished by the hands of God
The days become too long
Corrosive waves erode and grind, until I’m gone
Every single good thing in life will fade, weep, and bend
Finally, take me away to a bastard’s end.

No longer will I continue to suffer
Underneath the weight of the guilt
That you placed over me, motherfucker
No more remorse
No more restraint
Done grinding teeth
It's a demonstration of strength
I don't need this
To go through life
Thinking the only way out
Is to suffer to survive
I don't need you to speak on my side
You pushed me out
Just another abandoned life
Turn me over to the other side
Pain becomes power
No care for right or wrong
Betrayal is the sharpest knife
And revenge is the sweetest sin
I don't care what you want
And you'll never fucking win
No longer another victim
Now it's your turn to be the one afflicted
No more pain
No agony
In seclusion, I found myself
When everyone walked away
And I know now the meaning of life
Life lessons learned the hard way
No longer will I continue to suffer
Underneath the weight of the guilt
That you placed over me
You rotten motherfucker
Fragile-minded piece of shit
Master of manipulation
No longer will I become another victim
Bear witness
This is now my demonstration

Tooth and nail
Clawing over scraps
Losing sleep from the worry
While rats get fat
Stepping over shattered glass
Is a vicious routine
When everyday here brings a different defeat
Eyes fixated on serrated illusions
Grinding teeth, biting my tongue
Just to keep from regurgitating my thoughts
As I swallow them whole
Grinding teeth, scowl and sneer
Restraining frustration for the sake of blood
Living in debt
Dying in vain
Aching eternally
Scared to death
Scared of this place
Pain of uncertainty
At the opposite end of an easy win
There's no mercy rule
Forced to drown in the dread
Clawing over fucking scraps
Becomes a vicious routine
Starving while the rats get fat
Everyday's defeat
Clawing over fucking scraps
Everyday's defeat

ZERO knows how to bring in all sorts of heaviness. Whether it's slow or fast they sure know how to bring in the punch with their own style. Soo much hate in this release it's beautiful. It's definitely one of them albums I have to listen to weekly ever since it's release along with the first E.P. (No Salvation). 10/10 damn good release with no exaggeration. ☠💀☠
