lyrics

Writhing through this earthen hole,
narrow passage of mud and bone.
Stones gnaw unprotected skin.
Naked, bloody, but still I persist.

It's all the same a sediment maze, the paths converge.
All senses used,
No guiding light,
for sight I yearn.

Like vermin on all fours searching.
Oblivion's maw opens.

Semblance of time is lost I can't recall my name.
A hollow shell who's losing hope, nothing to gain.

Eroding,
my spirit is crumbling.
Frantic, constricted, and struggling.

Enclosed these tunnels will become my tomb!

I press on forward, though the path narrows.
I've come to this point and retreat can't even save me now.
I lick the walls for perspiration, what strength I can receive I'll cherish on the miles ahead.

But I stop moving. This vessel's sinking.
My will alone can't even break this new paralysis.
This battered body, no longer suits me.
I must move inward and emancipate my true self.

Peel away my structure
I breach the manifolds
The restraints are coming loose
I swallow darkness with my glow.
The locks to my cage rupture
and these walls hold me no more.
Reality suddenly a memory.
Omniscience.

"This is a bit of a weird and borderline one. All things considered, we feel that this is more on the heavy, sludgy post-rock side, as opposed to metal."
