1. Built For Sin
this is an intro instrumental
2. I'm Charming
Yeah I’m running off the rails
I’ve finally gone crazy
And the ground is spinning faster than my teeth could ever grind
I know it’s a shame when success does complain
But I don’t remember my name
In the absolute wrong I have made this place to lay my head
A reoccurring nightmare
I never trust I never rest
I’ve become another victim of this self-serving device
My cock does all the talking, my mouth now just for lie
I’m winding down to nothing
It’s suddenly so clear
I’m winding down to nothing
A human smoke that fills the air
What can you believe?
That is the question
I have you on a string
Something yet up my sleeve
Bury me deep, as I have an unborn child
In a world yet so cold enough to host this seed of endless ugliness
In a sea of corruption, a wake of lie so wildly I have stirred
I’m winding down to nothing
It’s suddenly so clear
I’m winding down to nothing
A human smoke that fills the air
What can you believe?
That is the question
I have you on a string
Something yet up my sleeve
My love is but a lie
Always reaping what I have sown
I’m taking you down with me
To degrees you’ll never know
3. Flies
Down start digging down your throat
Another string of lies is born you must
Exemplify Perfection bronzing a broken life
of shit you filthy liar septic tongue shit eating grin
slow internal suicide flirting with a trigger's pull
again this disease it is your mainstay
it wears its wires within me tender tissues
Scraped Away of secrets etched in nameless graves, the smell of vomit hangs in the air tonight
Blush eyeliner lipstick its alright tonight you filthy liar septic tongue shit eating grin; Love me with your yellowed smile
My flies are hungry for your kiss poison
Me My darling our graves grow deeper with each passing day this appalling love bask in your putrid revelry
Lost in between the lashes of sick drunken eye like a fool
You have believed life of shame you have fallen completely beneath the curtains
Finally part you'll hear that everyone is laughing
I am weakness just like you'll bury you before you're dead
cockroach come crawling home, crawl slithering through a world of sculpted shit
Thrust those fingers deep my child, it is your burden and your gift!
4. Statutory Ape
This is a reckoning a cliched cut of lying tongue revenge never goes out of style
Gorilla honing rigger finger that will make Gorilla man
Ingrained there is hate withing us all
spiraling I've lost my footing once again
I'm Flailing In a a tantrum of disgust
When life holds nothing sacred when the loveless turn to loathe we witness the final threatened pose
Oh mother war I sleep in your arms tonight
I'm Burning, I'm Burning for your love
This juggernaut of bronze and alcohol
machines of vengeance now are born in vengeance
We are born to the grave our grudges shall be sworn to the death of emotions never mourned
We'll die before we crawl twisted ministers of death praying for a bullet
Hail Gorilla
Suffocate Gorilla
Maim an education in the howling ministers of Death
We are praying
We are praying for this bullet
Hail Gorilla, suffocate gorilla
Maim an education in complete misanthropy
5. A Vulgar Picture
Now the funeral grounds are at last awash with the blackness of a frigid autumn night. I've lurked into the graveyard with pick and spade in tow. This night shall birth forth our reckoning. Hell's jaws now open wide. A stare to pierce sixt feet of soil, a love beyond this mortal coil as though you'd never left my side. I hold your stiffened body so close to me for years I've lived in dreams awake I felt as dead as my cold and bloodless bride to be I can barely suppress My elation blood is racing as I strike the lid a quick pry of the casket reveals her body paralyzed so long I've waited for this moment to thrust my fingers deep inside now you will sing this song of the deceased the ones whose souls will never rest in the peace. The throes of necromantic lust possess my mind cries of my precious frozen angel beckon from inside. I feel alive for once I'm feeling so alive my skin is crawling. I'm completed on this resurrection night from this night achieved a morbid truth loves bounds post mortally removed in rapture my mind is lured by my own knife. To Join this fragile being asleep below in the reflection of a razor I see the moon so perfectly along my impatient veins. Its steel does graze with the kiss of suicide I feel no pain as I am entwined with my lovely bride. The Silk lining now stained with my offering. Embrace the end of my now worthless life
6. Novelty Crosses
eyes of perfect ivory match the sweetest lengths of your neck. I am but astain to such holy fabrics. Darwin's proposals bouncing back from colored glass serpents will guide me to your hull slither between the pews of pearl
I walk a path of purity and temporary grace whatever it may take to drink and eat of you til slaked to run a gloveless finger up curvaceous trembling leg we musn't wait for the fruits of tragedy we'll taste
I'll be Adam you'll be Eve we'll fuck and so create I'm being stranged by his statue. If only his cold eyes could weep for these things that should not be father I've been sinning. I've pulled a fast one the perfect sleight of fate. Goddamn girl like an hourglass. I'll invert you the higher powers shuddering at what you have become the laws of science abandoned thrust into purgatory mary you've never looked so tender. I will you statues here to take a breath of life and look upon her virgin skin raised in anticipation the dark has won my darkness has won again what is truth. I cannot yet discern kneeling in a hope of reprimand this father's love shall not within me flow. I've fallen to my knees in hollow prayer how original a sin we'll fuck and so create
And burn this planet in our wake. I'm being strangled by his statue, if only his cold eyes could weep for these things that should not be father I've been sinning, I've pulled a fast one. The Perfect sleight of fate. Goddamn girl like an hourglass. I'll invert you the only heaven I shall know is heaving neath the buttons of your blouse we'll be immortal a most blessed union of lust. The flames of hell shall lick our coattails as we feast of infinities bust.
7. Dave Goes to Hollywood
we of blood frozen so thick it cannot thaw
joints lubricated by sweet alcohol
liver dissolving, eyelids but heavy sheets
ignorant bliss and the bloodshot secrets it will keep
pills, if you wouldn't mind
clouds of vapor to stretch out the miles
hungover, we'll greet a certain death
with a flash of chipped tooth smile
each cities' demons buried beneath
in this campaign of vice
our drinking song, a reprise
a slow blur existence
wading knee deep in sin
clutch at the ulcer
acknowledge the frailties within
at dawn we begin again
you who have never seen your breath, are you alive?
this mitten clenches in a fist to kiss this fucking world goodnight
destroyer, my only keeper
i kneel unto your amber gates
(and) pray you'll kill the ugliness that sleep won't take away
free drinks.. they shall not kill us
they only warm our fucking bones!
.. but late at night, i can't forget your laugh
and everything i used to know
BUT I'VE NEVER SEEN SO MANY FACES
BUT I'VE NEVER FELT THIS ALL ALONE
BUT I GUESS THIS IS WHAT I'VE ALWAYS WANTED,
A FOUR-WHEELED COFFIN TO CALL HOME
i will not ask another name
disappearing faster than they came
are you having fun?
are you entertained?
another heart-shaped bruise,
another friend back home i'll lose
am i missing something?
what is left to prove?
another heated first-name fuck
another stroke of dead man's luck
another year i can't replace
ANOTHER TEAR SENT DOWN HER FACE
at dawn we begin again,
till our deaths shall bring an end
you who have never seen your breath, are you alive?
this mitten clenches in a fist to kiss this fucking world goodnight
destroyer, my only keeper
i kneel unto your amber gates
(and) pray you'll kill the ugliness that sleep won't take away
8. Miscarriage
the language of the lie
barbed and callous tongues shall lick
behind the thinnest doors
a web of falsehood so unfolds
humility
pride dissected maliciously
a mockery
bonds dissolve in endless mimickery
cruelly illuminated the subject of shallow spectacle
inherent weaknesses revealed
contact withers to a lull
once perfect pictures now stained with fingerprints
tragedy fucks jealousy
the human heartstrings bend and break
vultures with human eyes, can you feel them circling?
preying on tender moments
the failures of purest dream
our selfish means are the means to this fucking end
a knife for every spine of every man
NAILS scratching into the flesh until fibers are broken
something's got to give
the bottoms of bottles no longer ease the pain
and the bathroom mirror reflects the face of autonomy
man must invert
internalize the pain
the sequence replays in the mind
the human heartstrings bend and break
vultures with human eyes, can you feel them circling?
preying on tender moments
the failures of purest dream
our selfish means are the means to this fucking end
a knife for every spine of every man
away a lot ugly answers lie somewhere in between
intrinsic disregard and the burden of weakness
they're sharpening
the knives are always sharpening
a life now stained with fingerprints
something's got to give!
9. Spite Suicide
TERROR be thy name
burning thine bridge and (heart) the same
a year to drain my innocence
and course it through your blackened veins
oh demoness, what has our daughter become?
trash for the maggots to eat
what color eyes should be staring at me in my dreams?
abomination, born in this union of hate
killed in the name of the free!
and of our son,
to the sickle he clung
a featureless face for your nightmarish dreams!
dilate and extract
dilate and bury it all
mother, vampiric mistress of nightfed blood
who pets her child's head from a grave
demon, enchantress of evil profound
DEAD AND NAMELESS
(a noose to choke the memories from me)
addic-ted to those forbidden hands
thrust deep inside her helpless hull
SCRAPE! scrape it all away
vacuum these pictures from my brain
scrape it all away
how i shall laugh once you have DIED
how i will sleep once you've been DESTROYED
dilate and extract
dilate and bury it DEAD
mother, vampiric mistress of nightfed blood
who pets her child's head from a grave
demon, enchantress of evil profound
DEAD AND NAMELESS
(a noose to choke the memories from me)
DEAD!
10. Miasma
in between, insidious vapor shall teem
looming so loathesome
and it seems to me like i'm dead inside
bloated corpse, propped out of tradition
i can never recall what it was i had ever to strive for as a youth
was it just to exist, autonomously?
no, we don't wanna work
we just wanna FUCK,
swallow pills and forget our curses
no, we don't need pigs like you
we'll follow the laws of our emptying veins
in this world of nothing for me
i'd be sooner destroyed
vampire youth, raise your cups to the ne'er waning moon,
let its visage ring true!
to the hearts cold and blue
we're dying each moment, FREE
we're all animals here
flesh and blood, bone and dream!
we're just impulses here
another piece of shit in the storm
JUST ANOTHER PIECE OF SHIT
from the smelling of things it appears this shit has come to a boil
the night-time we shall rule as our own
while the hollow shall sleep
we shall bark at the moon
in this world of nothing for me
i'd be sooner destroyed
in this world there is nothing for us but the sound (but the sound)
vampire youth, raise your cups to the ne'er waning moon,
let its visage ring true!
to the hearts cold and blue
we're dying each moment
we'll never sleep again
we'll be going fucking mad
sin and hell is all we will ever know
just another piece of shit!
