The illusion begins to dissolve
Inner maelstrom
A vindictive subconscious, absolved
Procuring tangibility, substantiality
Further exonerated from your society
A systematic acumen; Aloofness to "them"
Sickening, a flux from within you
As madness sets in,
Sagacity, a sin
The meek, herded into enslavement...
Fucked
Death from above
The powers that be,
Ruling all, psychologically
Fragile psyche, wrought
Asunder, your thoughts
Mental hierarchy,
Descending towards unreality
The landscape around you, now
BarrenInfertile
A sterile realm of the subconscious,
Unfulfilled, desolate, austere
Your purpose, clear
Compounding focus,
Splitting through the fog and myopia
Burdening realization
Coalesces, within
As paranoia seeps through...
Systematic involution
Mind split open, sickening, deranged
All thought now, immediately evacuated
Folly: whirling, destroying every synapse of the brain
Internal Bleeding
Spewing forth, a hemorrhage inside of you
Clotting, blackened, perforated within
Sanguine fluid; Mortise incision
Insalubrious, discordant contradiction
Everything around you at odds with your very life
--Persecution--
What you've come to know, a pathetic existence
Humanity desiccating, turning man to machine
Perfunctory, automated... Just cogs in the machine
Ecstasy: found, erasing thee
Disconnected from life;
Animated to war, and strife
Your very freedom forever, ensnared;
Automatons, running scared...
(Solo- Sutton, Alter)
Soon to fall, perception as you've come to know it
Inhibitions within you, fucking snapping like twigs
A plethora of murderous thoughts, fulfilling
Sacrificial exultation; Unabated, blood spilling
Shroud, congealing around you (now within you)
Instigating you to sadism, and vehemence
Viciously, converging on brutality
Laid out as a final homage: Carnage and pugnacity
(Solo- Sutton)
Disease, rampant
The Infection, black
Ichor pours forth, from cognizance
Observance: Subservient
Intellect, in ruin
Inevitably, mortality decays to fatality
(Solo- Alter)
Cogitation... Terminated suddenly (violently)
Afterlife: The final Crux

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians! dragonslayer8228

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
