I am not a man, just a simple stain
on the tapestry of yesterday
we would kneel, we would bow
struggling to scale these walls
tied down by the lightest of weights
and returning to nothing at all

into my skin
and through my thoughts my grip it fails
as you’re shooting us down like rapid-fire synapses
the pheromones in this city
drive me crazy
i stalk from roof to roof unsatisfied
bathed in this science
bruised and battered
you sink your nails into my skin
your tongue through my thoughts
shooting us down
shoot us down
collapse onto ourselves
in through these streets
sickening lights shine on my yellow teeth
feasting on anxious smiles
the pheromones in this city
drive me crazy
i stalk from roof to roof unsatisfied
bathed in this science
bruised and battered
you sink your nails into my skin
your tongue through my thoughts
shooting us down
shoot us down
pointless
perpetually bleeding

conspiring with fate
repressing sights of masochistic sodomy
watching tragedy unfold
dishonest, deplorable delusion
the inhumane kings
the lords of greed and suffering
perpetuate the sense of solitude among the pure and clean
tongue-tied in tragedy
nothing is, it becomes
evolution into regression
picked apart at the seams
in a cognitive slouch
stumbling towards our death
nothing is, it becomes
evolution into regret
stitches ripped and torn
the innocent jailed
as thieves flee the scene
the inhumane kings
lords of greed
perpetuate the solitude among the pure and clean
the breakers of spirits
we’re all alone
tongue-tied in tragedy
can we go on
everyone alone with nowhere to turn
still life in darkness
a march towards the end
perpetuated solitude
piss all over the pure and clean
tongue-tied in tragedy
as thieves flee the scene

all the honor is stripped from our efforts
every answer pissed away
fragile faunas trudged under time
the sisyphean life of a fucking fool
I swear I saw your tongue split the tree trunks
our young tranced in trauma
the sundering silence
still as the frozen sea that once warm washed these whirlwind words
from our tongues into time
bleeding hearts wouldn't bridle the breaking waves
wild screams fall on deaf ears
gazes forever blank
my spirit spills from my wasted breath
the thawing bodies, still hollow shells
shatter the tree trunks, break every branch
sever their heads, pacing our faceless death
wasted breath
pray for the meek, pray for the lamb
and the severed hands of an era intact
pray for your world’s senselessness and wash away
backbreaking, fathomless depths of this big, blue violence
tidal waves of shattered bones
still as the frozen sea that once warm washed these whirlwind words
from our tongues into time
bleeding hearts wouldn't bridle the breaking waves
wild screams fall on deaf ears
gazes forever blank
my spirit spills from my faceless death
our thawing bodies, still hollow shells
backbreaking fathomless depths of this big, blue violence
tidal waves of shattered bone
no hope
shatter the tree trunks, break every branch
sever their heads, pacing our faceless death
wasted breath

Paper Coffin

as the thread starts to unwind
tattered and frayed beneath the weight of time
swept away in its current
tied down by this human skin
mortality’s foundation is failure
we dreamt of paper
we dreamt of stone
though unbound we slept, encumbered we woke
we dreamt of flesh
we dreamt of bone
though the rain was our cradle, we’ll all drown alone
though the light burned out
in the dark we’re blinded all the same
and if the flood should fill our cups
we will swallow what we deserve
and if the waves should break our bones
we will embrace what we're worth
given life behind these walls
only to walk comatose
we dreamt of paper
we dreamt of stone
though unbound we slept, encumbered we woke
we dreamt of flesh
we dreamt of bone
though the rain was our cradle, we’ll all drown alone
though the stars burned out
our convictions shattered all the same
the paper split the stone
and drained the marrow from these bones
the flesh that drank the rain
crumbled under its fate

Directionless Flesh

we sing the same songs again and again
we do the same shit over and over
our contentment becomes a weakness
it's so familiar
it’s all so familiar
these devastating feedback loops
make me more than just a little dim
the faulty bulbs in heaven is the fading light inside ourselves
kill the comfort
the sun is setting on this city
light your dreams aflame
the sun is setting on this city
the burning candle wax
your hopes into ashes
the sun is setting
bear witness of the dying light
it's so familiar
when the only thing we see in others is ourselves
when all we want is affirmation
it’s so familiar
so safe in a thousand shades of grey
kill the light

I stumble towards the light
traversing these blank, white halls
the blood-splattered canvas awake
a thought-like vapor
worthless wills, withering vines
memories of the softest touch fade like the hope that the ache won’t stay
eyes sore from the sight of life between these walls
flesh-shaped prisons adrift, out of breath, twisted askew
knife-like thoughts
in the promise of anguish we never respire
drowned by despair and gasping for air in a sterile hell
and the walls caved in
I saw it collapse like our faiths and smother my dreams
slosh, wallow, drained, devastated, completely immersed in darkness
will this be for naught, forgotten
forgive me if I give up
we’re all afloat waiting for nothing, barely buoyant
I’m done tilting at windmills and clenching my jaw
I spent my life a voiceless sigh
an existence sporadically lit
by insignificant spots of light
days like nights, engulfed by an oil-black fog
shrieking for help with lungs full of tar
can we go on
will this be for naught, forgotten
forgive me if I give up
we’re all afloat waiting for nothing, barely buoyant
I’m done tilting at windmills and clenching my jaw
I spent my life a voiceless sigh
a misshapen shell bent ‘til it bled streams of disquieted blood
I can’t go on
I beg for release
I welcome death

Obsolescent
05:31

we awoke in the cold, hungry and alone
lust for sedation had poisoned our souls
subjugated by freedom, emotion and gold
this feigned empathy will end us all
the fruit was ripe but clouded our minds
and left us jaded, distanced and hollow inside
we awoke in the cold, hungry and alone
lust for sedation had poisoned our souls
all these echoes quell our insecurities
atemporal and directionless
ephemeral and valueless
I awake in the cold, sated but alone
this anodynic state is the poison in my soul
all these echoes sound the same as mine
vitriol laces my vacant smile
subjugated by freedom, emotion and gold
this feigned empathy will end us all
all these echoes subdue my unrest
atemporal and directionless
all these echoes subdue my unrest
nothing is real anymore

Resignation

there's always a shadow that stalks in our wake
looming over every choice we make
we neglect the bones that break beneath our feet
judgment is lost with the dying of the light
pull off the veneer of this life
and let nothingness flow unbridled
shadows of contingency dance all around
our words become vapor and disappear
we turn to spectres in the cold morning sun
and rise again to commit the same wrong
returning to nothing at all
in the sand we found life
consumed by our own regrets
we will face the end
and in silence there are answers
struggling to scale these walls
tied down by the lightest of weights
and returning to nothing at all

Orange Mathematics
by Frontierer
supported by 8 fans who also own “Everything is Terrible”
Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly. Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant.

At first I wasn't so sure about getting this one, it was part of a long list of music I had to listen to, and I knew that at the time I liked it and kept it in my list to buy for a reason but couldn't remember why, but I do remember now, this is way too intense to be forgotten,you made a new fan to this day and will follow you closely from now on!
