THE ARCHITECT 03:02
lyrics

Taking shape such a curious vector I imbibe your offer eternally grateful A dissonance leads a callous cipher Threshold of disease (innately fateful) Push/pull it’s your fucking concept Never missing a chance to sweeten the rot Tensile skin over vaulted ribs Traps the echoes of all your hate Architect of a shallow heart Look around it all falls apart I know that you love this lie I’ll build you up fucking high Spirit razed, don’t ask why Oh, I want you to die inside The longer I lie here The more the lie crystalizes Transmuting the light, contorting My mind, euphoric nausea Suffering is now, but later rewards Promises predicated madness The walls are ice cold Collapsing eyes closed Escape! How can you fucking live like this? Architect of a shallow heart Look around it all falls apart I know that you love this life I’ll build you up fucking high Spirit razed, god don’t ask why Oh, I want you to die inside I know what you really are

THE VESSEL 02:53

It’s never enough! You don’t know how much I need you now This is fate that brought us here you see the signs If you give me all I want you’ll be my god I will make all of your fantasies true (You’re gonna fucking pay!) Oh, this feels so good, this is what it must be like to feel alive I can’t feel my wounds you let me kill the fear I’d be nothing without your light Gorging, slashing, writhing slowly Eroding trust in all that you value The crazy notions, don’t look for answers There’s no life inside Do you feel the power? Somatic allure You’re in the midst of a superior creation They’re all shit, split from it They’ll never reach us from high up here (I can’t wait to watch you fall!) Oh, there’s a pulse inside An innocent daydream to focus our feast I’ll carve it out into the image of you No one else could show you that much faith Gorging, slashing, writhing slowly Eroding trust in all that you value The crazy notions, don’t look for answers There’s no life inside You’ll never climb back up You’re slowly forgetting who you really are There’s no way you could hate me more than I hate myself! It’s never enough!

THE LURE 04:45
lyrics

Stepping further out Until my weight is lifted My body embraced, warm pulling away The darkness covers my eyes The silence is welcoming The prison has no walls Detached from all that you love Sinking further deeper down The surface is above me And there’s no way I can return The surface is above me This darkness burns my eyes The silence is deafening I don’t know where to hide I don’t know who to blame How could you throw away a part of you that gave life? How could you go this way and never ask yourself why?

THE ANTIPATHY 04:26
lyrics

Was it worth it? Oh, I thought you didn’t want to survive this And hold on till you immolate This thing isn’t what you had loved Admit the things that you’ve endured You couldn’t see The Hidden Wound Cause you were busy bleeding out The guilt is flipping you around You want to hear those perfect words? As your vision readjusts Behold the world through shattered hopes Harsh, embittered, and hating yourself The nausea fight with fear and regret You know you’ve run out of time And there’s no fucking going back I won’t say the rest will be easy But I know you will subsist Subsist! You’re gonna collapse from within I’m not gonna die to supply you I can’t wait to see your rage consume you I know what you really are! I know what you really are! Your tricks have all lost their charm! Oh god you are so dead inside! Rage! Consume! You’re gonna collapse from within I’m not gonna die to supply you I can’t wait to see your rage consume you You’re gonna collapse from within I’m not gonna die to supply you I can’t wait to see your rage consume you

THE RUIN 02:45
lyrics

Fucking insane how do I leave it all behind? Battered and broken Severed all ties from reality Memories, dissonance, abuse of an alien kind I’m reeling seething now The hate in my veins collide The wreckage of my soul is on display A walking vivisection flayed and vile The seeds of dysfunction, dissolutely sown If you think this is what life is Look in my eyes! This is so fucking sick how many times have you played these lives? Psychotic waste of space I wanna watch you suffocate I read every single word and could see you trying to survive You’re getting cut out and I’ll carve you out myself! Bottomless pit Fill it with shit I’m grieving something that was never even alive Making my skin crawl and retching in disgust The wreckage of my soul is on display A walking vivisection flayed and vile The seeds of dysfunction, dissolutely sown If you think this is what life is Look in my eyes! Eyes!

about

VISAGE is a concept EP portraying the ruinous ordeal of being led into a narcissist's hollow realm of suffering and hate. The voice inside, warning, ignored. Drawn into a fantasy that turns to be a bleak house of broken mirrors. The parasite feeding on pain and confusion, luring you further and further away from who you used to be. VISAGE details the different perspectives involved, leading from the onset, duration, and inevitable lasting fallout.
