APPARITIONS LYRICS

1. Mechanical Manipulation

There is a pool of waste at our feet.
Wading through infected waters and supplying the leach.
Gutted from the inside out as they begin to feed.
They Get their fill and gluttony proceeds.
We survive!
We survive on the bread crumbs of societies finest.
Ignorant to the brutal and The Infection that surrounds you,
More than just a plague.
My hands are roots digging deeper into this earth to find where you dwell.
A cavity of empty vessels and proof of a vacant well.
Dictation lies at the heart of this.
A monarch of trees birthing beneath our feet bearing rotten fruit.
Breeding narcissism and filth that we trust.
A stone cast around our necks and thrown to the sea.
Forced to silence.
This hallucination,
A lexicon of fornicators polluting this world with the socially inept.
Fundamentally flawed in our moral understanding.
Surrounded by portals that support the sleaze.
I am the one that you will fear, on the surface of the murky waters below.
I am that you will grow to detest and loathe.
More than just a plague.
My hands are roots digging deeper into this earth to find where you dwell.
A cavity of Empty vessels and proof of a vacant well.
Dictation lies at the heart of this.

2. The Child

Manipulating the mechanisms of deceit
A fake name for insecurities
You hide so well & better than I do

My bones have ceased to comply with body movement
& I'm staying put
I've exposed this so take it or leave it
Run like you will [2x]

Not comfortable in this skin
Let me burn it away
& rebuild
It will bring harm to the house of the heartless
As I use my heart less
Innocence is absent
I'm ruined but I must rebuild

Cracked skin, dry, & boneless
Maturity lies at the heart of this

So let's put some truth to this
I have to put this to an end
You've used my electronic window
For far too long now to hide behind
We've seen your true colors
A child sown into the womb of the bitterness

Manipulating mechanisms of deceit
A fake name for insecurities
That you hide so well & better than I do

& when the sun sets
I hope we're nowhere to be found
& I hope that I can't see you

I'm with your ghost now
I'm met with familiar smells
Nostalgia has gripped me
I'm with your ghost now
Paralyzed
[2x]
I'm with your ghost

3. Sky Splitter

[feat. Tim Ruins Of Within The Ruins]

Raped and burned under fascist skies
Don't regret ripe days
We are so far away
And what's been done and done can't be undone
Why? Are we the artifacts?
Replicating burns, words of the faith to fuck again.
We begin to hide amongst them
Closing in on their plans
Where do they want you? Dead in a box.
Between the dirt, rocks and the worms, and if we must we'll claw our way back.
Taking shelter amongst the hills of the damned. Hiding within walls of negligence.
I'm sick and tired of all the lies.
We will expose you for what you truly are!
As we begin to

Open the sky, let in the light
It reveals you to our eyes.
Poen the sky, let in the light
We're here to warn you [2x]

Burned away under sadist eyes.
Only the dead seem alive
My anxieties are the vultures perched upon my shoulder
Loss is at the heart of this.
Flesh consumed and the seed of a hardworking man abused,
Dragged by your own two feet through the dirt.
You fucking asked for this and you reap what you sow.
You asked for this! and loss is at the heart of this

[Tim]
Dead and gone
Are your moral values
Dead and Gone
The things you hold true
Dead and Gone
Everything that you loved
Dead and Gone
Where are we now?
Dead!
And!
Gone!

4. Naysayer

Naysayer [2x]
A cloak of envy & disgust

Forever in the depths of faulty & guilt
We are revival
From a place of a cold heart
& jealousy, jelaousy
As you stand on your throne
Your throne of lies
Bow your head in shame

Thoughts controlled & nervous to the bone
I've seen the end of your tunnel
& it's void of light

Into the darkest pits of Hell
You shall roam
As you sit on your own
Bastard throne

Naysayer
Your lack of the integrity
Your lack of validity

Bow your head in shame
This is the end of the line for you
We're through your childish games

Nothing but a naysayer & all the same
Th sun shifts but your shadow remains the same

& it's all the same [2x]
The sun shifts but the shadow remains the same [2x]

You bring the demons out of me
It's time to bury you
& with you the worst in me

The graveyard gates are open
& the dead are dying to get in
Open the gates
Let in the dead

You are the worst
You lack the worth
You've been bred that way since birth
Confidence lies at the heart of this
Never lose confidence

5. As Flies Feast

We'll do this without God
We can take this back
For the ones deserving
Come join me now
We'll tear it down

Monetary wealth is where your ego is birthed at
Collapse your pedestal
That explains your worth

Words lost in an unexacting public
Have we truly progressed?

A deterioration of decency
Confused by mass media

Our views & belief systems
Are merely dictated to us

I find nothing but the flaws of man revealing themselves
Every day in myself & those who surround me
Come join me now
We'll take it apart brick by brick
We'll tear it down [2x]

We are the generation of over comers
Coming to take the lives they stole
We are the generation of over comers
We are the world
Stop them

As flies feast on the lack of judgement
By those who seek
Entrenched in wicked thought
Provoking lust & leaves the mind to rot

Judgment lies at the heart of this
Let it burn & sink in
Judgement lies at the heart of this
Let the revolution begin

6. The Purest Form

Descending down the wire
The burning tearing at the flesh
The blood as it gathers
The pulse ceases at the chest

The fire brazen, brazen
Scolds our backs & scorches our necks
As birth we seem to fall into numbness

The focus drifting from you
Leaving a dead man's stare
I'm gathering the gifts of gifts of gab
An offering of a mortal & sacred hand

Cast out the sun
Bring in the dark
I'll show you the suffocation
Entering the real unknown
Past the distance of the world below

Behold the purest form
The rapid descent we must ll perform
Is this a revelation?
Surprised at the sight
Before us a realm unknown
Soon to be found home

Prepare to
Settle into numbness
& let in the calm
Settle into numbness
Let in the calm

The end lies at then heart of this
It's the end of the line

Thank the Earth for your birth
But just as all
You'll deny the soil
& thank an empty sky
As my blood boils

Stay in your homes
Stay in your bones
We all still will perform
The most purest form
