lyrics

I see the chemicals from a hollow head
Spill on the pavement
Another soul who couldn’t catch a break
But who am I to criticize - I’d be playing the same hand
If I didn’t have a deal with the devil to make (Devil to make)

Crawling inside
The doubt of a new day.
Is it not worth reforming?


What remains
The deceased had to abandon
Survivor’s guilt splinters
Into our spines

Contempt above all else
Only cowards turn their back
on the rising tide

You’re fetal,I’m fatal
Everything on the line at the table
I think it’s time to address the divide
You fear failure - I crave atonement
If my memory serves me right
While you bury your face
I’ll go down in a fight

But it’s not who stands(No one will stand)
It’s about what is right
Loyalty doesn’t make
many enemies.
Trust me - I can testify
With my sins.

A dying man once said
To be devoid of forgiveness..
You’ll bring no light.

In a world already filled with darkness
Is there value in coveted pride?
So... what if my hurt is misplaced?

A vex of pain and disgust.
Bound to feel nothing more
Where is the valor?
Break the spell to finally find rest.
Antipathy..
Breeds no progress!


Rimetti a noi i nostri debiti come noi li rimettiamo contro di noi
(Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass us)


Saboteur… our trespasses against each other
only offer a sentence to a borderless prison
Carrying shackles wherever we may roam.
An incandescent furnace - locked from within
If liberty is a matter of absolution.
Than I’ll fight to live unrestrained.

The North Carolina metal group As Oceans has been described as crushing and furious with a unique take on heavy music. Earth-moving guitar riffs paired with vicious vocals and pounding drums, As Oceans grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. As Oceans’ music hauntingly fits with what is alluded through their name; a force of vast power and infinite mystery. ... more
