lyrics

A litany. Always so willing to be the offering. Always so willing to be the hand that feeds. Never have enough to give. Beg for mercy. Fall to the floor, nose to the ground, and gnash your teeth. Ask for forgiveness. Cross yourself, and make your plea. Know you’re too late to be sorry.

A vision in grey. Reverse the decay. Listen to them close. You already know. Uncover the truth. Sift back through the youth. Omnipotence reigns and withers away. Your waiting grows old. My hand bought and sold. Visage rearranged so that they might stay. It’s not the right face. It’s a losing game.

Prepare the altar and tear down the veil. I’ll play a part in your ritual spell tonight. I’ll never falter and I’ll never fail. I’ll share with you all the secrets they tell tonight.

Listless. Insignificant. Time much better spent on someone else’s cause. Weakness. Witless penitent ever more in debt to someone else’s god.

The choice has come, heaven or hell? Burn for the truth or strike the nail? A twisted glory will not suit. I will no longer burn for you.

Tear down the altar and put back the veil. I’ll play no part in your ritual spell tonight. I will no longer be under your spell. Don’t be afraid of the secrets they tell tonight.

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

Songwriting, musicianship, and atmosphere taken to the level of pure art. Every moment of this is riveting for me. My favorite title of 2022! An absolute masterpiece... kowaikage2

I listen to a lot of depressive and dark music, and I have to say this album hits hard. Very hard... kowaikage2
