I. In The Event That Everything Is Taken
They’re gonna get me and take everything
They’re gonna find me and take everything
They’re gonna drag me to a dark place
They’ll line you all up and end everything
Too late to turn around but maybe I should
A little run for your life does the body good
Can’t stop, won’t stop but maybe I should
A little run for your life does the body good
Get back but don’t you dare close your eyes
It’ll only get worse
But the worst is gonna make you better, bigger, stronger
You’ll just have to wait and see
Someday, I’ll be fine
Won’t need all these friends of mine
Someday, I’ll be fine
Won’t need all this love of mine
If this is how it’s gotta be

II. You Must Be Prepared For The Sudden Changes
Welcome; this is The End
Hands run down my blood-soaked shirt
The wound, now infected, starts to burn
This feels just like hell
I think they set the trap at the bottom of the well
Separate my skin from bone
Make the cut - I’ve gone so numb
Suffocate - my mind is gone
Put me down like a dog
Sleep now - where has my mind gone
Sleep now - I’m out of my head
Sleep now - where are you taking me?
It’s just the beginning - where has my mind gone
It feels just like Hell

III. When It All Went Black
What a waste of precious space we had
When it all went black
I thought for sure you’d fled
Did you dig a hole when the sky turned red?
Did you fall asleep or did you learn to play dead?
Spineless bitch from the ditch,
You may go but I’ve learned your scent
Catch your breath, thinking you’re safe
And in the clear but I’m on your tracks
Spineless bitch from the ditch,
You may go but i’ve learned your scent
Catch your breath, think your safe
And in the clear, but I can smell your shit
Flex your jaw, gnash your teeth
Who the fuck are you
Toxic hands on a toxic man
It’s you I see through
Born a cunt, die a cunt
That’s the price you pay
Forever faith in no one
Stay out of my way
I’ll rip out your forked fucking tongue
Find him-
Shake the trees, send the dogs
Comb the woods - he’s hiding
We’ll find him
He’s out there

IV. Redundancy, Redundancy
I gotta pick up the cage, I gotta pay for the lights
I gotta cut all the shit, kill every joy in sight
I gotta iron the gown, I gotta call off my plans
I gotta lay in bed, so I can do it again
I gotta break my back, I gotta get on track
I gotta get my shit, so I can give it all back
I gotta hang my head, I gotta learn to pray
I gotta shut it all down if I wanna be okay
Trapped in the snare that is the faith which I keep in you
And while I sleep, you mock the things I do
Am I getting it? No.
Turn around, stomp me out, and dig a hole
You’re not feeling it? No.
Drown me out, put me down, and dig a hole
I gotta tape it all down, I gotta give to the church
I gotta head to town and forget my worth
I gotta shave my head, I gotta get to bed
I gotta pick a shelf then go fuck myself
I gotta make some calls, I gotta line shit up
I gotta pay some bills, I gotta give two fucks
I gotta trust the cops that it’ll be alright
Hand them my gun and sleep alone tonight
And so I wait for these things to turn on me
Follow the steps so I can be complete
Trapped in the snare that is the faith which I keep in you
And while I sleep, you mock the things I do

V. Tess
What moral lines are left to cross?
The sheep weren’t blind, just convinced they were lost
The wolves will get their fill, like it or not
Will you go ahead or lose your train of thought?
Pressed against our graves and together we’ll rot
We set up all these traps and we got ourselves caught
I wanna see your face when you make your escape
I wanna kiss the cross, yeah I want that faith
I wanna play blind so I can’t see
What a terrible thing we grew to be
I want you to go and run so fast
Get the hell out of here, don’t ever come back
I know it hurts, but babe I gotta run
Kiss me hard as we both reach for our guns
“Don’t wait up, I’m sure you’ve got some time.
Go back home where you were always mine.”
“Where you were always mine…”
It doesn’t have to end, not like this
Put pressure on the wound
But it bleeds through
I can buy some time but you have to run
The sun starts to set
“I loved you so much.”
All debts will be paid in full
I know it hurts but babe I gotta run
It breaks my heart as we both reach for our guns
Don’t wait up, I’m sure you’ve got some time
Go back home where you were always mine
All debts will be paid in full

Even for this genre the sheer intensity of this album always manages to floor me. Might not be the most unique album under the sun but it doesn't have to be; the performances are tight and ferocious, the songwriting is dynamic and explosive, the production is crushing, it's just all things to a mathcore fan.
