The Soft Violet Light
I SEE TRUE COLORS IN THIS SOFT VIOLET LIGHT
MORNING PLUMES OF RUST STAIN ME LIKE WINE
MY BODY SHAKES AT THE SOFTEST SOUND
I WALK WITH POISE FOR THE SLIGHTEST NOISE BRINGS THE VULTURES DOWN

An Orphaned City
THE SOFT VIOLET LIGHT
OF SOME FAR OFF TOWER
HARDLY BREAKS THROUGH THE SMOG
WITHIN THESE DESTITUTE WALLS
NO HORIZON AN ENDLESS GREY
EVERY DAY NEGLECTED SUNLIGHT
GIANT GLOWING TOWERS
EMIT THE AIR THAT POISONS US
I WILL NOT STOP BEFORE I FIND THE SOLUTION
(I CAN’T BREATHE)
AS I CREEP THROUGH THE ALLEYS AND THE SHADOWS
EVERY STEP OBSERVED EVERY HEARTBEAT HEARD
THE VULTURES SPREAD THEIR WINGS
THROUGH A FOG OF GREEN
THE WINDS OF DEATH
RELENTLESS
(THEY WON’T STOP)
FROM THEIR PERCH THEY CALL INTO THE BLEAK AND SOUNDLESS NIGHT
NO MOON TO SEE
NO LIGHT ABOVE TO EXPOSE THEM
THE ONLY SIGN IS THE LOSS OF AIR
DESCEND
DEATH DRONE
SEEKERS OF DEFIANCE
EYES FOR THE LONE ONE
EATERS OF FLESH
SCAVENGERS OF AGONY
ENFORCERS OF THE RUST
BEWARE THE STIRRING OF ECHOES HAUNTING BEHIND THE DUST
OR THE WRITHING REFLECTIONS OF PASTEL COLORS
MOVING AND FALLING AROUND MY HEAD

Amaurosis Shroud
A THEATER BEFORE MY EYES
MY STAGE MY SCREEN A WORLD OF COMPLACENCY
FIND THE WEAK
WILL OF THE STRONG SUBDUED
SICKENING LOWLY CREATURES ENSLAVE MY SIGHT
WALLS WITH NO END A TOMB IN THE ABYSS
PUSH THE NUMBERS AND WITHER IN TIME ALONE
A CONSTANT NUISANCE IN MY LIFE
A GIFTED MIND MY BANE A CURSE
ONCE AGAIN HER NAME RINGS ALOUD THROUGH THE SHROUD OF THIS BLACKENED ROOM
SEND HER TO ME THE OBSTINATE ONE
WHAT DRIVES THIS CREATURE
AN UNCHALLENGED MIND
THE DRONING DAYS DRIVE THE ACTIONS OF THIS CHILD
FURTHER FROM MY GRASP
BRING HER TO ME TO STAND BEFORE MY
INCANDESCENT CLARITY OF A MAN’S OWN RESPITE
THROUGH THE GLASS DOORS I CAN ALREADY SEE
MY FORBODING PATH FLICKERING TOWARDS ME ‘
SWALLOWED BY THE DARK A LONELY GAUNT SILHOUETTE STANDS
CRIPPLED BY THE LACK OF COLORS USED FOR THIS MAN
AWAITING ME THE SCOWL OF SUNKEN CORRODED EYES
I SEE THEIR CLAWS PEEL THE FRAIL AND SOULLESS SKIN
THE LIFE BEHIND THEIR EYES GOES BLACK AND SWALLOWS THEM
HOLD YOUR TONGUE, FIGHT THE TEARS, PAIN WITHIN
MY CONSCIENCE SHINES A LIGHT THE DARKNESS SEES MY SIN

Mechanisms of Loneliness
CRITICALLY HE WATCHES
TERRIFIED I’M STONE
FOREVER HAUNTED BY THE WEAK WHO DIED ALONE
THERE IS NOTHING I COULD HAVE DONE
MY DAY SOON WILL COME
FREE THEM FROM THIS TOMB AND RAISE AGAIN THE SUN
RETURNED FROM THE ABYSS NOW I AM LOST ALONE
STILL IMAGES FLASH
TISSUE TORN FROM BONE
NOTHING LEFT IN THIS PLACE
GODS LAUGHTER SO IT SEEMS THAT
FOR ETERNITY I SHALL KNOW THAT SILENCE FOLLOWS SCREAMS
A CLUTTERED MIND IN MOURNING
FROZEN IN MY THOUGHTS
ALL EYES SURROUND ME
TUNGSTEN WONDERS AN OCEAN OF THOUGHTS
ENGULFED IN CRASHING WAVES
SURGING TIDES LOST AND NUMB
INCESSANTLY OUTRUN BY THE HOLLOW
INDOLENT MASS
ECHOES OF MY PAST SPEAKING VOLUMES
I DESCEND YET AGAIN INTO MY THOUGHTS
(FEED)
LONE TOO I STAND BUT THE PIT CALLS TO ME
(FEED)
CAVERNOUS RAVENOUS FEED
(FEED)
FEED THE HOLLOW AND GIVE INTO GUILT
(FEED)
SHATTERED REFLECTIONS I FEED
(FEED)
FREE
FREE OF TOXINS
RIP THROUGH RESTRAINTS
BREATH OF AIR AND HOPE FIND REASON AND PASSION FOR LIFE
I WAS POISON
NOW I WAKE THE DEAD
I’VE DWELLED IN THE
VAST OF NOTHING
THE SHADOW OF MAN
FOUND FAULT IN ACTIONS
DESIRE AND QUESTION
EATEN BY THE VOID
MY WORK NOW TO GUIDE YOU
THROUGH THE CAVERNS BEYOND THE STREETS
MY MACHINES EXTRACT THE SERUM
FROM THE FRAGILE FORGOTTEN GREEN FLESH
MY GIFT TO THE ONES I’VE WRONGED
I GIVE THE SEED IN WHICH OUR FUTURE WILL GROW
A VISION
EVOLVES

Mountains Part 1: To Ascend
DEPART FROM MY THOUGHTS ILL MEMORIES
LOST DAYS AND FORGOTTEN TIMES
LET HISTORY SHOW THAT I TOO ONCE WAS BLIND
MY CREATION THEY CHEWED THROUGH THE EARTH
MINERALS WE FOUND THEN SYNTHESIZED
MY DRUG THE GREAT HOLLOWER OF MINDS
I AT THE TIME THE LEAD OF THE GROUP FOR THIS WAS MY DISCOVERY
ONE PULL OF THIS GAS YOUR LIMBS BECOME NUMB AND A LOSS FOR HOPE FINDS SERENITY
WAY DEEP IN THE MINES
OUR WORK FINALLY APPROACHES COMPLETION
MY GIFT TO THIS WORLD
WAS FAR LESS NOBLE ACT THEN
THE SANDS OF TIME DO CHANGE
FURTHER INTO THE CHASM FOLLOWING WHISPERS ELUDING ME
RELENTLESSLY THE WALLS THEY GLIMMER A LABYRINTH OF CONSTANT REFLECTION
THE VOICES THEY GROW
JOINED BY A BREEZE FROM A WORLD UNKNOWN
A NATURAL SCENT EXPANDS MY LUNGS
AT THE END OF THE MINE A PORTAL AWAITS
AND NEW TEACHERS WHO EXTEND THEIR HANDS
ROLLING HILLS AND BLINDING BLUE SKIES
MY SANITY INTERNALLY I DOUBT
WHY ARE WE MISLED
PULLED STRAIGHT FROM THE GROUND AND CAST IN A BLISSFUL ASCENSION
THE ELDEST OF THE GROUP A MAN OF WISDOM AND FAITH
BENEATH MY EYES HE PLACED
A WORLD OF MINDFUL WEALTH
BEGINS TO FORM
A HOLE IS TORN
WITHIN THE SHEET
ABOVE THE SKY
THE CRADLE OF AIR
ALIGNS MY LIFE
WITH YOURS
IT IS MY CHOICE
LIFE AND DEATH CREATES
MY BREATH AND TAKES HOLD
THE COLOR OF ANGELS CHANGE THE MOLD
HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN THE PLACE I HAVE BEEN
AIR OUT THE MONSTERS LIVING WITHIN

Mountains Part 2: Empathy
I
OFTEN WONDER
AM I
GOING UNDER
YOU SEEM TO NOTICE
TO MUCH
OF THEIR MOVEMENTS
THERE IS SOMETHING INSIDE YOU
ITS BURIED SO DEEP
YOU WALK IN THE MOONLIGHT
WITHOUT IT YOU'LL SLEEP
BUT IT WILL
DRAG THROUGH AND TEAR
YOU'VE IGNORED IT FOR YEARS NOW
I GIVE TO YOU THE SUNLIGHT
I SEE
SO CLEARLY
THE ECHO SPEAKS
AND ANSWERS ME
THE AIR FEELS
THE WAY LIFE SELDOM SEES
YOUR HEAVEN HAS CLOUDS
WHILE MINE HAS TREES
PLEASE
(WHY WON’T YOU HELP ME)
FIND COMFORT
(OUTSIDE MYSELF)
IN KNOWING
(CLAWING FOR HELP)
WHERE I AM
(WHERE AM I)
I’VE BROKE THROUGH THE OTHER SIDE

Caught in the Azure Cradle
MY TIME IS RUNNING
SO AM I
ONE LAST MEASURE MOVES FORWARD
EFFORTS OF A TORTURED MIND
PUT AN END TO THE TORMENT
KNOWING WHAT I’VE DONE
BUT I CANNOT STOP HERE
FOR THE FUTURE HAS JUST BEGUN
I WILL TEND TO MY CHILDREN
FEED THEM WELL AND SHOW THEM LOVE
THE WORLD WILL BE
A CANVAS TO INSPIRE ME
MY MACHINES ARE READY
CLOSE THE LATCH AND RUN AWAY
TO THE CAVES
THROUGH THE STREETS OF DEBAUCHERY
CITY OF LOST REFLECTION REVEAL YOUR
SICKNESS HAVE HOPE HOLD FAST
HAVE FAITH IN ME
I KNOW YOU'RE SUFFERING
WITHIN ME I HOUSE YOUR PAIN
BREATHE IRON RUSTED LUNGS SONGS UNSUNG
A PLACE OF PLEASURE LEFT BEHIND TO MELT BENEATH THE SUN
BECON ME
CHOSEN ONE
I KNOW EVERYTHING
(USE MY BACK TO HOLD YOUR WEIGHT I’LL CARRY YOU TO THE TOUCH OF THE MORNING SUN)
PARCHMENTS OF PEOPLE
CONSTRUCTS OF THIS DISEASE
(SOLIDIFIED IN A LIFE OF MISERY LAVENDER CLOUDS OF AGONY)
FIND A WAY OUT
PROMISE THERE’S AIR HERE TO BREATHE
FALL AND GRIEVE
PUSH
MY CRUMBLING MUSCLES THEY SCREAM IN AGONY
FIRES GROW AND TENDONS TEAR
I PUSH MY BODY BEYOND ITS HUMAN LIMITS
I PUSH MY SOUL
REMEMBER WHAT THE WINDS HERE BRING
LABYRINTH
YOUR HALLWAYS SCREAM OF A PAINFUL PAST
I’VE LED THE GHOSTS
ECHOES FROM THE OSSUARY
THEY CALL TO ME
JUST FROM WHAT IS IT YOU RUN
IT IS FEAR?
BUILD YOUR LADDER BREATHE AGAIN
ONE LAST TIME ON THE SURFACE
FROM THE DIRT I RECEIVE MY FAITH
ONE LAST TIME AND IT’S OVER
A FINAL CHANCE BEFORE I SEAL MY FATE
I WALK ALONE
ONE LAST TIME ON THE SURFACE
FROM THE DIRT I RECEIVE MY FAITH
ONE LAST TIME AND IT’S OVER
WITHIN THESE WALLS HE WILL BURY ME
I CAN SEE
MY TIME TO JOIN THE STARS AND BE
EVERYTHING
YOU AND ME
FAINT RED EYES ONCE AGAIN GLARING THROUGH THE DUST
WITHIN THE SWELLS FLUNG FROM RAZOR WINGS
THE LONE ONE JOINS THE FRONT, AS THE DIRT SETS
MY DAY CONCLUDES BUT FEAR NOT BE MY FACE
HEAR ME
HOLLOWER
HEAR ME
KEEPER OF THE LOST
A VICTOR OF THIS WAR HAS JUST BEEN CLAIMED

The Anatomy of Us
THE NIGHT SKY IS BEAUTIFUL
HEAVEN SITS ON THIS NATURAL WORLD
FEEL EMBRACED BY ALL OF YOU
TAKE ME WHOLE
MAKE ME NEW
I CAN’T WAIT
AND THE MEMORIES FILL MY HEAD
SUFFER IN LANGUOR
THE HILT OF A SWORD IN YOUR HAND
BRANDISHED
A LEARNED BEHAVIOR
HOW THE STARE OF A DISTANT AND ERODED MAN
SEEM TO FALL DIRECTLY ON ME
TIME WILL MAKE ITS FINAL DECISION
HOLD IN
THE LIGHT
FROM A LIFE FADES
THE RIGHT WAY
IS THROUGH
THE PIECES OF US
MAKE YOU
YOU
NEVER FEELING A MOMENT OR A QUAKE
STEEL TRAP
MADE TO SNARE ITS PREY
DON’T PRAY FOR ME I FEEL OKAY
WHAT ARE THESE PARTS WE PLAY?
(THINKING LATELY OF A CHILD WHO COULD NOT KNOW)
WHAT IS THIS MIX OF EMOTION
BLIND TO THE NOTION
YOUR TRANSGRESSION MEETS CONSEQUENCE
DARE TO CONFUSE ME
PERUSE AND AMUSE ME
HOW CAN YOU BITE HAND THAT FED?
(STOP)
(RELAX)
(IM HERE)
NATURE WILL GUIDE THE HAND OF A BRAND-NEW WORLD
(HEAR)
(MY VOICE)
(HOW STILL)
TIME I NEED HAS GONE TO THE ROLLING HILLS
THE ROAD I WALK IS LITTERED WITH BLOOD AND ILLS
TIME HOLDS, TIME HOLDS THE KEY TO MY WILL
THERE ARE MOMENTS OF NOTHING BUT CLARITY
COUPLED WITH THE DELUSION OF EMPATHY
CAN YOU SEE MY VULTURES GNAWING?
CLEAR THE PATH THE CAWING ROBS THEM
OF A NEW DAY LABOR PLEASURE
LAWS CREATED IN GOOD MEASURE
(THINKING LATELY OF A CHILD WHO COULD NOT KNOW)
WHAT IS THIS MIX OF EMOTION
BLIND TO THE NOTION
YOUR TRANSGRESSION MEETS CONSEQUENCE
DARE TO CONFUSE ME
PERUSE AND AMUSE ME
HOW CAN YOU BITE THE HAND THAT FED?
(PLEASE)
(LOOK UP)
(I’M HERE)
LIGHT FROM THE RISING SUN BRINGS A NEW DAY NEAR
(FEEL)
(THE WARMTH)
(OUT THERE)
CLIMB THIS LADDER
MY BODY IS FODDER
LET THE SMOKE GUIDE YOU HOME
NATURE’S WOMB
I’VE BEEN SAILING
CONVERSATION
AND THE SHORES OF A NEW-FOUND LAND COULD NEVER FEEL CLOSER
ENTERTAINING MAD DELUSION
AND THE TIME HAS COME TO BE BURIED IN THE CLOUDS
I’VE SEEN SUCH WONDER
FOR YOU TO HOLD MY HAND
PLEASE KNOW MY SLUMBER
WILL NOT BEFALL ON MAN
(ALL PATHS HAVE LED ME HERE)

You know when a song's chorus or hook just really hits the spot, right in the pocket? This album is 45 minutes of that. 🤘

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help.

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release!
