I. The Wall Takes What Belongs To It Sick like the rats that run under this town Barking at the moon Foaming at the mouth Clawing at the surface for a means of escape There's no gold down here Nothing left to take Back to the dirt We are one with it A child is born Into this world of shit And their struggled grip it Starts to slip The brakes will go And their wings are clipped Death ain't gonna wait for no man But go ahead and play your hand No one is ever really a loss We're not worth all that we thought Drowned rats don't feast and dead birds don't fly The cold, clammy hands- They drag me to the lake This life was never mine Only Her's to take

An Oil Ocean 03:19
II. An Oil Ocean Staggered and wounded But we fought through I could smell the shit you were trying to move Something’s been off This whole fucking time I could tell by how you shift your eyes You’re only as holy As the gaps in your story If you got a plan, why don’t you show me Cauterized by a blinding glint If you’re coming in, you better kill me quick I know you wanna run. I know you think you’ve paid your dues But I see how feeble you are when you try to lead. There’s a clear limp in your step And that will be the first thing I sink my teeth into Leaving you paralyzed and vulnerable to attack I won’t follow a false god to the precipice I’m at the back of the pack where leaders belong I am the worst kind of winter The kind that takes your breath away I am the wrath of December I am all that is endless I won’t follow a false god to the precipice I’m at the back of the pack where leaders belong

III. Feral Hoosier Blood Death to all that’s false Frail limbs twitching in the clutches of our jaws We’ve come to collect The meat of fraudulent necks Death to all who’ve wronged The pack in any form Puncture their throats Gnaw their feeble bones The ugly choices we’ve made Have lead us to think like feral, godless, warped creatures There’s no calming essence No time better than the present We’ve created something Devilish, and clever Dangerous, and quicker Follow the voices Feral and anxious Gnashing of teeth Burning of bridges Blood in the water A reach that is farther All will collapse A new plague will follow Of The Lot
4.
IV. Then They Came For Me Lack of heart It’s pitiful If you’re gonna shoot You better mean it Cut me deep And look at me Until you hit a nerve, Or a memory How could it be so incomplete The traction I lost when they came for me All of the dreams What do they mean? Come alive while we still have the time to turn and run Borrowed jaw A sound so false I didn’t think We’d go that far Come alive while we still have the time to turn and run
5.
V. Pitiful, Really Curse the thieves The damn dirty fiends I’m all caught up in these mangle dreams You see, there’s plenty more to me It smells like death in these goddamn bloody sheets End the day/Thin the herd Be a stat although it hurts Feed the need Catch the thrill Sever the head Let it spill Get your fill Claim your kill My mangled corpse, It continued to grow Rotten and feeble Not in control Caught somewhere Amongst all of the static You don’t still got it If you never even had it Manic breaths Make for little error I’ll dig at this pine box Until there’s room to share Doesn’t my voice still Give you the chills I’m Gutted, but vibrant The death of a thrill Be still Embrace The horses are here Waiting at the gate They’ve come to collect They’re champing at the bit I reached out to hold the hand of who I once was But I found no comfort in someone i was not to love Curse the thieves The dirty fiends Damn the thieves The dirty fiends All you’ve done is take from me All you’ve done is take from me
