Fear and the Fire

Days turn to weeks turn to months turn to years Leaves turn green, leaves turn brown, leaves fall dead onto the ground. Life’s a losing battle.
3.
A million times around the sun,
 wouldn’t solve it for anyone.
 We are both miracle and a disease. 
A beautiful parasite.
 Born, passed, reborn again.
 After an agonal gasp for air,
there was a new beginning.
 Passing is a better term for death. 
Because we pass into the next.
 To give and take, 
Hopefully to give more than we take 
 A million times around the sun,
wouldn’t solve it for anyone

Let us take a moment To observe the starting line The thin line is painted Between space and time We’re falling backwards, upwards and from side to side There is no direction Just illusions of mind Falling, falling, falling Upwards, upwards, upwards Passing through the timekeeper’s gates Forever, forever, forever Let us take a moment To contemplate this life Let us eat the red leaf And numb our minds It can be overwhelming To realize that we’re floating And there’s no end to time Your only reality Fabricated in mind Twists and turns Deformed faces Melting bodies Floating Floating Laughing Laughing

Have we forgotten simple human decency? What happens to privacy? Evolve or devolve? What is it? Everyone care but no one cares You’re cancel, burn in hell No human shall be defective No human shall be defeated Utopia of likes Hashtag utopia

Dark Eyes 04:08
Dark eyes I try to sleep But it stands in the doorway White hair No face If I close my eyes will it disappear? Is she really standing there? Dark eyes In my dreams I saw her there White hair No face Is this fear?

Fire fire Do I fear the fire of the future? Not knowing when my turn is up Not knowing when when the curtains will drop Dance with the flame Hold it in your hands Tonight will be the night I win Embers in the sky Smoke in your eyes This won’t be the night that I die Fire fire Fear of future’s fires Fire fire Fear of future’s fires Burning bright Or not at all Burning bright Or not at all Dance with the flame Hold it in your hands Tonight will be the night I win Embers in the sky Smoke in your eyes This won’t be the night that I die Fire fire Fear of future’s fires Fire fire Fear of future’s fires Burning bright Or not at all Burning bright Or not at all

about

Dive into the strange with our newest and longest album to date. Featuring a combination of new/unreleased songs, plus remixed/remastered versions of previously released songs. “Fear and the Fire” is experimental, industrial, dark, sludgy, and raw…an album that simple doesn’t belong, a true misfit. It will be available for free download for a limited time, but please become a supporter if you can. We hope that you will give it a listen from start to finish, and maybe you’ll appreciate the darkness as much as we do…remember, life is a losing battle.
