lyrics

I want to be free again
My happiness is lost in my past
The grave awaits
My mistaken body

How it fell apart
Between sacrifice and art
My heart dethroned by disguised lies
Shining bright like paradise
Bury me please bury me my fellow reaper bury me
Cause I saw her take her life
By ripping veins out with a knife
And bled the blood I let her bleed
As it drained into the mud
And threw reason out with logic
When I saw the lie and bought it
But the pain i gave away
Found a soul to let it stay

The life I gave up is what I long for the most

While I decended to this place
I thought my demons gave up chase
Breaking oaths along the path
Brought a dreadful aftermath
Bury me please bury me my fellow reaper bury me
So I fell down on my knees
And bled the blood you let me bleed
And now I lay here all alone
between the mortar and the stone
I fell down upon my needs
And cried the tears you let me bleed
And now I die here all alone
Between the martyr and the stone

I want to be free again
My happiness is lost in my past
The grave awaits
My mistaken body

Hard to pick one track from this album. The whole album is a treat but if I would have to choose one, gun to my head I would pick Sweltering Madness just because of the low tuned guitar riff. S4V6

Filthiest Sludge record I've ever been deafened by!! Riffs are disgustingly heavy, the pounding of the drums is ferocious, the bass is gnarly as shit, & the vocals are pure evil!! ALL HAIL DOPETHRONE🤘 TheMetalheadGuy
