Lamb Of God Tribute EP 2

 The Faded Line

Witness shame's parade, the pain of blame repaid
It's fucking hopeless accusations and denial.
Hopeless demon of another day
Colourless stoned, solid grey
Emptiness of promises I made
So faithless the tenets long betrayed.
Walk the faded line, cursed crawl of time
Silence, the only promise ever kept.

Familiar touch, a ritual to numb the cut salvation in vice
Anguish is realising what could have been, but never was
It's emptiness that fills the cup devotion in the method of my fall.
Pointless futility continuing
Endless flowing corrupted vein.
Walk the faded line, cursed crawl of time
Silence, the only promise ever kept.
Hopeless

Terror & Hubris In The House Of Frank Pollard

All the fucked up things trap & punish me I cannot explain my problem.
Kill my hopeless life I cannot be hypnotised. You owe me.
Push aside the veil to welcome in the visitors.
Eyes like halogen illuminate the soma peering out of spherical night mask.
Paleolithic subconscious icons lumber through dream scape archetype of archangel.
Terror and hubris - infants painted gauze peer through murky jars 
Soon I'm wearing the skin of the morning star

Green locks my name fills an empty banner. Frank, what have you gotten me into now?
I am not afraid to speak my heart & mind it cannot be saved sell me over.
Fuck your hopeless world, I am blacker than the sun. Tragedy. 
Have you seen the speedy, yes bleeds through the sleep onto the page. I'm sailing

Walk With Me In Hell

Pray for blood pray for the cleansing pray for the flood,
Pray for the end of this nightmare this lie of a life can as quickly as it came dissolve.
We seek only reprieve and welcome the darkness.
The myth of a meaning so lost and forgotten
Take hold of my hand for you are no longer alone.
Walk with me in hell.

Pray for solace pray for resolve,
Pray for a saviour pray for deliverance, some kind of purpose.
A glimpse of a light in this void of existence.
Now witness the end of an age.
Hope dies in hands of believers.
Who seek the truth in the liar's eye.
Take hold of my hand for you are no longer alone.
Walk with me in hell.

Desolation

Spoken sideways and indirect without a single word left unchecked
And by your own admission no one is ever above suspicion
Defences never to be let down the lies readily abound, gaping jaw tightly wound.
In your desolation still searching for nowhere
Desolation you’re living in nowhere.

Smoking gun, cause and effect paradise lost, a beautiful wreck
And to you I solemnly swear all I ever wanted was away from here
All that for nothing, what a fucking waste of time 
I only took what was rightfully mine seek and you shall find.
The dying man might take you with him until then I’ll split the difference
In your desolation still searching for nowhere
Desolation you’re living in nowhere

All that for nothing, what a fucking waste of time.
I’m gonna take what is rightfully mine.
All that for nothing what a fucking waste of time
The dying man might take you with him
I swear to you I’ll split the difference
All that for nothing what a fucking waste of time

.Ghost Walking

Do you remember when word was bond, a fleeting promise in the light of the dawn.
Barren December under a falling sky, the end of days are the reason to die.
Obliteration never looked so divine holding your breath for the moment in time
You lived through hell, now you're trying to die
The skin is healed but you are bleeding inside
Shots fired just to numb the pain there's no one left to save

Night blind on the shining path ghost walking in the aftermath
Hypnotised, 60 cycle hum the broken cadence of a distant drum
21 to 1 I'm liking the odds a blood junkie with a lightning rod
A dirty rig and a heavenly nod and still you wind up nowhere
Obliteration never looked so divine holding your breath for the moment in time
You lived through hell, now you're trying to die
The skin is healed but you are bleeding inside
Shots fired just to numb the pain there's no one left to save

Now you chase the dragon but it follows you home
Now you lost the fever dreams and broken hope
Desolation never looked so divine promise yourself for the very last time
You lived through hell, now you're trying to die
The skin is healed but you are bleeding inside
Shots fired just to numb the pain there's no one left to save there's no one left to save
There's no one left a fever dream there's no one left to save
Shots forever end the pain there's no one left to save

 Overlord

You've never proved me anything but right you hold no surprises, consistency defied
An overwhelming sense of predictability a dull sideways slide into mediocrity
Another day spent buried in the shadow of your doubt
Always the same but still you refuse to figure out
You will destroy you distorted, tore yourself in two
Your will absorbs you you can't ignore you anymore

An entitled declaration of distress strife, misery, and the pursuit of unhappiness
Endless complaining, no accountability the reek of privilege and weightless tragedy
Another day spent buried in the shadow of your doubt
Always the same but still you refuse to figure out
You will destroy you distorted, tore yourself in two
Your will absorbs you you can't ignore you anymore

Cry wolf on your silken pillow clipped wings beneath a crooked halo
A perfect child who never looks at the mirror right in your face, but not any clearer
A problem hidden in plain view is staring right back at YOU!!!!
All the world's a stage but you are the only player
A black hole at the centre of the universe a dark cloud of despair
Caught in an endless rut a crisis without solution
Someone should stitch your mouth shut and solve your fucking problem
Strife another day in misery always the same
Strife another day in misery always the same
You will destroy you distorted, tore yourself in two
Your will absorbs you you can't ignore you anymore
