lyrics

THE FLAMES OUT NUMBER THE DARKEST DAYS
THUS FAR ALLOTED IN THE BURNING WASTELAND
THE HOUR IS UPON US COME ONE AND ALL
BEAR WITNESS TO THE RISE OF MAN’S FALL

I, I, I, I
THE ENDLESS NOTHINGNESS
I, I, I, I
THE PERFECT PERMANENCE

ALL THE GLORY NOW TORN ASUNDER
COMPASSION REPLACED WITH MERCILESS INSTINCT
WATCH THEM ALL WHILE THE HEAVENS FALL
LIKE VERMIN THEY FEAST BENEATH THE FALLOUT

I, I, I, I
THE ENDLESS NOTHINGNESS
I, I, I, I
THE PERFECT PERMANENCE

THE LANTERN BURNS SO BRIGHT
UNDER MIRAGE OF SELF IMMOLATION
WITH DISTANT MICROSCOPES OF GENESIS
WE WATCH THE DOMINOS FALL
LIKE GHOULS OF GRANDUER
THE RESEMBLENCE IS EXCEPTIONAL
THEY COMB THE CONCRETE JUNGLE
OF TWISTED METAL AND CELESTIAL SPIT

I, I, I, I
NO MENTAL DISFUNCTION HERE
I, I, I, I
JUST PRODUCTS OF INSUING CHAOS
ANOTHER HARROWING ESCAPE FROM DEATH
AS THE SINISTER LAND IS RECONSTRUCTED
A FLEETING EXISTANCE ON A BARREN SLATE
WHERE THE ROTTEN RESIDE NOW BEAR WITNESS

Stalwarts in northern New England’s small but viable metal scene, the pair wrote an initial burst of material that would become the template for an LP’s worth tracks. The full length will be released on March 27th. ... more
