1.	Wrapped In The Thorns of a Howling Ghost 06:21	lyrics	buy track
Your solace, your conviction The devastation, unyielding and unfeeling The ending, your patience, your leaving The silent stare The sadness in those eyes (It’s time) It’s time to reach in and touch the sky Like darts across the moonlight The discarded humanities soar into starlight A sad and broken figure carries the weight of your undoing Silently confessing their pain At an empty Monastery Wrapped in the thorns of a howling ghost Crushed into ribbons They plead and plead crying at the sun Just Let them go Screaming into the clouds Just remember my name as you fall into the shroud Die again, oh die again Oh Nothing seems to satisfy “The sun is the eye of a hungry beast. There is a stomach in the cosmos, and one day we will bow in horror to its greatness, as it’s maw swallows us whole and we dissolve into nothingness deep within. We will look up and grab our children for one last embrace. When it all ends, after our final goodbye, it will be as if nothing ever happened... and nothing will ever happen again. As it was. As it is. As it will always be. In god’s name. Amen.“ Screaming into the clouds Just remember my name as you fall into the shroud Die again, oh die again Oh Nothing seems to satisfy Roots pulled up the stiffening settles in The night air caresses through its bitter cold Die again, oh die again Oh Nothing seems to satisfy Die again, oh die again The cycle is come around again And a wisp of dregs poured from your open orifice A look of fear masked in a wave of figures releasing your earthly coil Finally finally finally finally finality Forever, fixating Forever, forever Forever, fixating The cycle, remaining Forever, forever Forever, forever…

“He took his shotgun, put it in his wife’s lipstick smeared mouth… and splattered her beautiful brains all over the bed.” Fragments of humanity Scattered across the dirt Wrapped in cloth and placed in the earth “… and then he took a hammer and grabbed his six month old son… and destroyed him beyond recognition.” (…) The blackness rolls on like hot tar in the veins Helping you to bring your infant son back to the womb, folded in on itself Strings of flesh elastic, snap and rip Overflowing blood like a rupture The taste of the purest flower A mirror without a face A dark spot where I thrive Stare upon the image of your blown open lover Stare upon the image of your child consumed
