Way to the Well
01:49
|
|||
porous land, saturated sopping wet with waste.
we bite down to the root with dirt in our teeth waiting for more slop to drop down.
the dregs collect in the same caves where they hide the bones.
carcasses line the way to the well.

Binding Rings
02:02
|
|||
anointed decider of right, venom-frothing life-taker, give me your mandible--i want you tongue.
parents childless at the drop of the cloth, i want the rings that bind you two around your necks.
only the spineless can find legs to stand on at a funeral.
his blood on your hands and no sink to wash them clean.
people like you make me sick.

Act Like Shit
01:59
|
|||
if i am the son of no man--mother dirt, father slime.
if climbing to the top tier is just heat, the passing of time.
if there is no great plan and we're just souls born to die.
then why act like anything other than the shit from which you derived?
predetermined greatness: final solution.
natural ascendence: born of pollution.
act like shit.

i should burn for all i've done, inverted and drained for the dogs to lick dry, split and picked apart by a jury of my peers--the scavengers, left in a ditch to erode away as a monument to auto-decay at the expense of bleeding everyone around me, yet i am the most parched.
"how dry i am, how dry i am."
regardless of dispersal i will not grow. i will poison every mouth and all land i touch, and as of now nothing good will grow from me.

Back in Line
01:30
|
|||
you are nothing.
to them you are the harvest incarnate.
they will take out what is needed and you will be corralled back in line.
your role as sustenance is important.
but make no mistake--you do not matter.

Sloth
02:20
|
|||
there's blood in your mouth but you won't drown.
it pours out and covers me.
sit and spill.
sloth, you may move but you'll never move anything.
you may heal but you'll always be scarred.
bleed out, lose your life.

As many riff ideas on a 25min album as there are in most other bands' careers.
