01. Hollow

Music by Heart Of A Coward
Lyrics by Jamie Graham
Welcome home
And dive into a world so blind
Your life decided since the day you were born
All along you felt the dark presence
So hard to believe your conscience was torn
And with each passing moment it's becoming even harder to breathe
You remain on the path you have chosen?as an oxygen thief
Force it down
Swallow your pride?embrace the sadness
Force it down
The architect of your own madness

The world is ash and dust
(Burn, burn)
We are so Hollow
And when tomorrow comes our dreams will die with us
(Burn, burn)
We are so hollow

With dead eyes
You lie to friends and to family
You wore the badge of your decline
To blind to see the way you spread your fucking sickness over everyone you meet
We built foundations on friendship?now we are nothing but strangers
Your degradation is just sickening to behold
A product of your failures

Our world is ash and dust
(Burn, burn)
We are so Hollow
And when tomorrow comes our dreams will die with us
(Burn, burn)
We are so hollow

A shallow life riddled with holes
Whoring yourself as you bare your soul
Head in your hands
Questioning why no one cares when you lose control?
Hollow

02. Miscreation

Music by Heart Of A Coward
Lyrics by Jamie Graham
Now there's nothing left
We've spread ourselves too thin
Crawling at the walls
The darkness closing in
A cage within a cage
We're left to rot in this cerebral maze
Forever lost
Deafened by the silence of our own restless minds
Servants of damnation?no will to unify
A perfect miscreation
A perfect lie
Blind to the grave
Nothing can change that now
Blind to the grave
No one can save us now
Sickness
We breathe it in tonight to witness our decline
Final transformation
Pure hatred will arise
Breath in this pestilence under these blackened skies
A perfect miscreation
A perfect lie
Blind to the grave
Nothing can change that now
Blind to the grave
No one can save us now
Denial of our existence
We fabricate the path to least resistance
Repopulate?
Born to sow the seeds of hatred and procreate
This, the mirror of our nature- to devastate
Crushed beneath the waves

03. Turmoil I: Wolves

Music by Heart Of A Coward
Lyrics by Jamie Graham
Our time has come
We've come undone
The ground that shakes beneath us?stained red with blood
A grave of many secrets charred by the sun
We'll show no signs of weakness
We are amidst the wolves
Brace your fucking selves
Barely alive
Nothing but another drone in a hive
You stand alone upon the wreckage of a broken home
We are reborn in the eye of the storm
We'll gather up the strength to try
But again and again we'll fucking fail
And this is all that we know
The malnutrition of a dying soul
We are the chosen ones

Now you will come undone
Sacred hate
Take the weight
Bear it on your bones
Sacred hate
Fill the graves
Fodder for the crows
Our resistance led to where we are now
We are amidst the wolves
And we won't back down
We're counting down these numbered days
We'll try and try
Yeah again and again we'll fucking fail
You smile as you watch us suffer
You will behold your downfall with horror
We are thirsty for perversity
We laugh in the face of adversity
We are the chosen ones
Now you will come undone
Sacred hate
Take the weight
Bear it on your bones
Sacred hate
Fill the graves
Fodder for the crows
Our resistance led to where we are now
We are amidst the wolves
And we won't back down
A grave of many secrets charred by the sun
We are the chosen ones
Now you will come undone
A grave of many secrets charred by the sun
We'll show no signs of weakness
We are amidst the wolves
But you must die before
you can be born again
Sacred hate
Take the weight
Bear it on your bones
Sacred hate
Fill the graves
Fodder for the crows
Our resistance led to where we are now
We are amidst the wolves
And we won't back down

04. Turmoil II: The Weak Inherit The Earth

Music by Heart Of A Coward
Lyrics by Jamie Graham
We will give way to abandon
The weak inherit the earth
A hurricane of pollution
We'll choke on every word

With a smile we are disarmed
We're seduced by horror's charm
The temptation of the strong is the downfall of the human swarm
We will give way to abandon
The weak inherit the earth
Well if you're gonna destroy, then destroy this
Then we'll do it again?Bleed you again
The mark of the iron fist
Yeah if you're gonna destroy?.gonna destroy?.destroy this
And we will seal it with a bloody kiss
Iron Fist
Pledge allegiance to the voice in your head
To the words that will end us all
Raising the black flag of the dead
The demise of the human swarm
We will give way to abandon
The weak inherit the earth
A hurricane of pollution
We'll choke on every word
We thought we had control
We were wrong
Well if you're gonna destroy, then destroy this
Then we'll do it again
Bleed you again
The mark of the iron fist
Yeah if you're gonna destroy?.gonna destroy?.destroy this
And we will seal it with a bloody kiss
Iron Fist
We will give way to abandon
The weak inherit the earth
A hurricane of pollution
We'll choke on every word

05. Anti-Life

Music by Heart Of A Coward
Lyrics by Jamie Graham
This is not what you are?party's over son
Take a good look at your life
Take a look at what you've become
Masochistic
It seems you've missed a trick
I've wasted too much precious time on this bullshit
I can smell the filth that seeps from your skin
You try to hide it but your mask is paper thin
God, you must be thick?you make me fucking sick
You only brought this on yourself
Learn to live with it
You stumble blind
Wasting your time
Living the Anti-life
The world is bearing down
Slowly dying from inside out
You'll be searching for another to blame
And when they find you I will revel in your pain

Shut your mouth, save your breath for someone who cares
A walking contradiction?your words just make no sense
No one gives a fuck
Just know when to quit
You only brought this on yourself
Learn to live with it
The world is bearing down
Slowly dying from inside out
You'll be searching for another to blame
And when they find you I will revel in your pain
You stumble blind
Wasting your time
Living the Anti-life
You stumble blind
Wasting your time
And I wont waste any more of mine
You stumble blind
Wasting your time
Living the Anti-life

06. A Grain Of Sand

Music by Heart Of A Coward
Lyrics by Jamie Graham
This planet is on a different frequency
Our minds are tuned back into insanity
With every means of perversion, the human lifeline recedes
An epidemic of blindness
Seduction and spreading of seed
The Devil pulls on the strings that make us dance
This human plague is insignificant
We'll fail like those before
The rabid bite of these dogs of war
The hopes of every man
They are lost forever- like a grain of sand
No we'll never understand
How it slips through our hands
Like a grain of sand
Resplendent retaliation
The spiral of life now unwinds
The poisons that we all depend on
Our love and our hatred entwined
The Devil pulls on the strings that make us dance
This human plague is insignificant
We'll fail like those before
The rabid bite of these dogs of war
The hopes of every man
They are lost forever- like a grain of sand
No we'll never understand
How it slips through our hands
Like a grain of sand
Our minds are tuned back into insanity
Into insanity

07. Mouth Of Madness

Music by Heart Of A Coward
Lyrics by Jamie Graham
Dark circles around the eyes
Open wounds that you can no longer hide
A matter of the heart that splits you in two
It's starting to unleash the demon in you
Oh God?something is very wrong
I feel it in my bones and now I just can't seem to decipher
Though I knew it all along you'd find out on your own
The fear of being alone is what drives you on
Open up the mouth of madness
Open it up
And is this what you want?
Is this what you envisioned?
I don't know who you are anymore
And is this what you want?
To remain in your prison
Where you wont see the light anymore
A different day but you're still in the same shit
You'll resist but you can no longer take it
A matter of the heart that splits you in two
Until there's nothing fucking left of you
Oh God...how can we start to win
And where do we begin to figure out what we're meant to fight for
When all sides are just the same
They play the same old games and when you can't tell one from the other ?
Now something's wrong
Open up the mouth of Madness
Open it up
And is this what you want?
Is this what you envisioned?
I don't know who you are anymore
And is this what you want?

To remain in your prison
Where you wont see the light anymore

08. Deliverance

Music by Heart Of A Coward
Lyrics by Jamie Graham
You've finally realised what this has done to me
A black horizon stretches as far as the eye can see
I walked away from us?left you to bear these scars
I can't imagine what it must be like inside your heart
And after Severance will come Deliverance
Now your existence is no longer making sense
I'm getting past the obstacle of your belligerence
A picture of unrest
But I wont ever let it show
I'll keep it close to my chest
'Cos this is pain that you'll never know
If you could see what I can see
It would make you cry
A vision now has come to me
Of the day we die
The day that we die

And I can see it in your eyes
You've finally realised what you've done to yourself
Deal with your pain by inflicting it on someone else
You'll never have my love
I know you want my life
Patiently waiting for the time to come and twist the knife
And after Severance will come Deliverance
Your existence is no longer making sense
I'm swimming in the endless filth of your maleficence
A picture of unrest
But I wont ever let it show
I'll keep it close to my chest
'Cos this is pain that you'll never know
If you could see what I can see
It would make you cry
A vision now has come to me
Of the day we die
This is the day that we die

09. Skeletal I: Mourning Repairs

Music by Heart Of A Coward
Lyrics by Jamie Graham
Morning repairs
The woe from yesterday
(And when we're)
Scared to awaken
To all that should remain?
It's all we know
With one step forward there's always two to take back
I know there's always something
An itch I'll need to scratch
Oh when will life
Feed my desire
Rise up
Walk in this fire
The barely beating hearts
Now so polluted
Our veins with poison swell
The stench of suicide
We forged in our own hell
Now we piss on skeletal remains
Forsake our forefathers for our worldly gains
Mistrusting
Disgusting
Walk in this fire

10. Skeletal II: Arise

Music by Heart Of A Coward
Lyrics by Jamie Graham
Here we make our stand
With heads buried deep in the sand
This cross is ours to bear
But hope is always there
When will life
Feed my desire

We arise
Walk in this fire
When will life
Feed my desire
We arise
Walk in this fire
Walk in this fire
When will life
Feed my desire
We arise
Walk in this fire cos we wont fall at the last step that we take
Our bodies wont break
We'll end this today
Live like it's our last
It's within our grasp as the final breath enters our lungs
When will life feed my desire
Rise up, walk in this fire
