I've grown accustomed to the thought of a perfect life
Happiness is measured by pure saturation
I try to remain assured
But everything I've hoped for is falling short
I need stability
Show me the real me
I won't let my demons get the best of me
But my greatest fear is losing the ones I love
You're growing distant
Distant from my life
I think I'm getting lost in the thought
Regain what once brought us joy
Finding my way alone is nothing short of a nightmare
Justify your case and I'll accept my fate
Disconnect from reality
With no true sense of direction
No compass and no path
I'm lost
But I still lust for you
I'm itching for rapture
I need closure
I still lust for you
Finding my way is a fucking nightmare
The disconnect
I'm losing touch with reality

Separate me, start from the skin, then to bone
Scatter the pieces, what is left?
A broken man begging for decay
I have seen the traces
The mistakes I keep repeating
Caught in a constant cycle
The story remains the same
My mind is crippled by the words I am afraid to speak
This is your doing, I am your ruin
Awaken my ability to breathe again
Awaken my ability to fucking breathe again
This is my suffering
Endless and it's my abode
Everything has lost its color
I'm just a broken soul
You're detrimental to growth
I've lived and I've died
Trapped in my ways
Watch me decay
One life has come to an end
A hollow body inherited
Fragments of myself left in the dust
So take me in and give me rebirth
I fucking hate the person you've made me
Lay me deep in the earth
As I close my eyes and put the world to the side
My mind drifts into the dreams I left behind
Broken and alone, I'm better off on my own
Anxiety drowned, I'm better off in the ground
Separate me, start from the skin, then to bone
Scatter the pieces, there's nothing left of me

Taken. Vacant. Shaken.
This cancer must be tamed
Insane. Explain. Deranged.
This could be the death of me
But I have seen the light
and it brings me back to life but
I have seen the night
and it strips me of all my hope and pride
There'll never be
another one like you
You'll never see
the wretched life you live
Silence, burning me down to,
Nothing but a memory
Silence, burning me down to
Nothing but a filthy scum
The water is rising high, your closer to the end
Just swallowed by the tide
You're never seen again
Piece together your picture perfect world
Black and white, with no more hope or light
Altered visions, who have you become
Rash decisions, I hate who you've become
There's darkness growing here
And it's grabbing ahold of me
Align your thoughts, with those of destruction
Fall victim to your own corruption
Taken. Vacant. Shaken.
This cancer must be tamed
Insane. Explain. Deranged.
This is the death of me
I am living in denial

Paralyzed to the feeling
All this hate inside of me
Demoralized, I've been beaten
Oh god, please let me be free
Let me be free
I've been searching for the will to improve
The lone cost of dying will duress you to choose
This burden we hold surpasses the test
Reality has been set in stone
Only I know what's left
I'm spiritless
I'm changing
I'm facing
Whats inside of me
I'm spending
My last days
In misery
Look past the quality
Is it me, or do the ones you love just let you down?
Animosity, you led me astray, watch it all go polar
Solace when I'm sleeping
Breakout from this agony
Grant me a clear sky
I am nothing
Grant me a clear sky
I can hear it coming
Watch me drift straight into the dusk
Fading from grey to black
Pick me apart be my saving grace
Everything I've known is under attack
I'm facing the bitter end and it's sinking in
That all I love and all I hate is attacking me
It's far too late for me
I can't be made to stand and suffer such indignity, or so it seems
We all strive for what we know is lost
Making waves instead until we've forgotten everything we've learned
Self righteousness is dead, I pace alone
Conviction
Plagued by my pride, I feel the guilt inside
Stagnation
I've been made by a hollow god
My bones tremble with just the thought
Put this behind me
I've been drifting ever since the dusk turned to dawn

How can I see your heart?
Brought up in the wrong direction
I know there's more to life
But I'm nothing but a thief
I've been barred off all I held so tight
The spite (the fucking spite)
Has seized the essence from my life
Rotting, cut from the ones I'll never remember
Hopelessness inside my head
Filling the void means hanging by a thread
I'm fading
I feel no sympathy
My tainted mind owns what's left of me
I see life through a twisted world view
I see life through a twisted world view
This pain
This pain, it all comes back to you
The enemy is in yourself
Make my skin a sanctuary
I'll bite my tongue
And watch the joy drain from my life
Devastation now
I am the phantom of a life that could have been
Inferior entity, I am an inferior entity
I spent my life trying to find out who I was
Only to realize that I want to be no one
Tell me again, give me a reason why
I have never been valued through your eyes
Torn from compassion
Unable to sympathize
Sleep deprived
I can't close my eyes
Lost watching day and night go by
I see life through a twisted world view
I see life through a twisted world view
This pain
This pain, it all comes back to you
I spent all my nights
Praying for these chains to be lifted
There is no coexistence
My irritation is very persistent
Consequent aversion
I've been mistaken for a martyr

Falling face first straight for the end
All I see is self destruction
Actions made with no emotion
It's all burning inside my head
There's no hope for a race with no will to evolve
I am more than fine with knowing I don't belong
Life transfigure
I can feel my lungs depleting
Creatures of impulse
Born with no meaning
Let me suffer in silence while the world rots
Born into this forsaken mess
Total corruption
The world is damned
My feet are rooted in the ground
Polluted mind
Digital ignorance
The beginning of the end
Look how far we fell
There's nothing more to tell you
Ill will and greed is all that's left
Ill will and greed is all that's left
I stood by and watched what once was my hell become real
Drop your selfish notions, you've become pure evil
You've become pure evil
Been too far to watch this rot
Feelings gone but never forgotten
False fabrication will leave you burned
You walk the road of desolation
I see no progression
Steering out meer existence in the wrong direction
It's too far gone
Abandon us, abandon all of humanity
I walk a road where everyone seems alone
Prone to depression from a body whose been power grown
It's too far gone

Orange Mathematics

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.

I don't think i ever expected to hear circus elements in this genre but man when it's used it works so dam well.

Fucking sick shit this is. Not a sickness born of virus or bacteria that leaves you vomiting and experiencing diarrhea at the same time resulting in a dilemma of toilet or shower. No, this is sickness that will get your ass moving without soiling yourself.

Been listening to this since 2013. Eventually tried to track down a CD but now I'm starting to go digital. So, has 7 years of listening to this EP dulled the experience? Not even slightly. Amazing work. From Nathan's ghost beats on the snare, polyrhythmic measures and insane kick pedal work, Eric's unique tone on vocals and both Aaron and Josh's melodies and interesting structures. Just hope they get the chance to tour England soon.
