we are not told how low these holes go these naked bones know they’ve long bathed in the dirt so unlike me stain all the white sheets gorge on your mercies i flay myself again finity red is what I see fucking tear away a promise to myself re-live bated me — gave a shit ragged epilogue started and finished it ligaments shorn reused reworn we are not told how low these holes go these naked bones know they’ve long bathed in the dirt so unlike me stain all the white sheets gorge on your mercies i flay myself again lies faded porcelain eyes your vision of sanctity is written go on without me tried land and sea collide i know it's the only way and that this won't be the last time we are not told how low these holes go these naked bones know they’ve long bathed in the dirt so unlike me stain all the white sheets gorge on your mercies i flay myself again we are not told how low these holes go these naked bones know they’ve long bathed in the dirt so unlike me stain all the white sheets gorge on your mercies i flay myself again

Viscera 03:44
wrap my hands around your neck my digits fade away i've let go, my arms object ego fades and falls astray "can't see it, but I feel like everything could happen for you" "can't see it, but I feel like everything could happen for you" tearing at my viscera vacant stares, occluded faces lips form words that won't come out in the vacuum of the vacant shout i returned here from the end the weeds have waxed and grown what you want, never what you get it's the only way i've known can't see it, but I feel like everything is happening to me can't see it, but I feel like everything is happening to me can't see it, but I feel like everything is happening to me can't see it, but I feel like everything is happening to me tearing at my viscera vacant stares, occluded faces lips form words that won't come out in the vacuum of the vacant shout

Calenture 03:17
divine basks in sublime this precious pet of mine this desire for everything again null pushes the now it never quite amounts i’ve felt that fear immense and unpronounced i find you in me within the endless sea you’re lost in me indeed an endless sea disaffection breaking in the wake of dreams nothing’s quite as it seems within this shell i’m not the only one i was never the only one unfurl the concealed despair blinded daggered glare you tempted? i’m the snake charmer tear you down power i’ll make you taste it elongated resentment we cultivate these forms and this design disaffection breaking in the wake of dreams nothing’s quite as it seems within this shell i’m not the only one i was never the only one i find you in me within the endless sea you’re lost in me within an endless sea

Porcelain 04:24
hollow is long and narrow within the Void i am not alone flesh, blood, eyes, hands and marrow deliver myself; i am trapped no more on the verge of discontent, consent to kill admonish-mate the fig and it was ripe with your spit bathed and broken, assiduously insincere your means became the end of all that i've ever known no sharp swords, but you know there’s another side we are more than just waiting to fucking die we’re the shield, the blind lead the blind, disease- spangled heroes, suffocation’s never free there isn’t a place for me you threw it away down falls the failing mercury this all faded away no sharp swords, but you know there’s another side we are more than just waiting to fucking die we’re the shield, the blind lead the blind, disease- spangled heroes, suffocation’s never free bathed and broken, assiduously insincere your means became the end of all that i've ever known no sharp swords, but you know there’s another side we are more than just waiting to fucking die we’re the shield, the blind lead the blind, disease- spangled heroes, suffocation’s never free

Polyvalence 03:57
blanching blank in dull faceless pain the solace of solitude within me decays sip you but nothing nothing slakes my thirst this dry, cracked, clay body bore me through dirt i am infinite ambition i become the void lord of cavities vacuous hunger exacting a toll he blended beneath blankets of snow this is the instant attach myself again above the material this can be taken away

rise, fain the hide we couldn’t fade or feign fake lives eyes sought our paradigm the cyclic, a towering abuse bite down on the teat blank, bloodstained, concrete high tide fucks the weak those born into bondage we are complete blank, bloodstained, concrete high tide fucks the weak those born into bondage look us in our eyes dried up the sea, sadistically cried let us get back to you the cyclic the dead attract the flies bite down on the teat blank, bloodstained, concrete high tide fucks the weak those born into bondage we are complete blank, bloodstained, concrete high tide fucks the weak those born into bondage you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake you’re not awake

about

We are indebted to the Void & vectors for bearing us; to the Ideas & facsimiles for birthing us; to Piovanelli & Ooluu for conceiving us; to Serraph, for bleeding us; to Medusa, for breaking us; to the Darkness, for healing us; to the Matriarchs, for raising us; to Ignius, for engendering us; to King, for quantifying us; to Thi, for instructing us; to the Patriarch, for bulwarking us; to Love, for tempering us — & to Gravity, for guiding us.
