Show Me Your Scars

Wash away your sins with my tears
Wash away your fear with my blood
As I turn from the light and seek the comfort in the darkness
I embrace the cold and time passes by regardless
Things that I used to hold close to my heart
Start to wither with age and all fall apart
Chorus:
In the dark I see the light that's supposed to guide me
But it's the same old light that always seems to blind me
I stare straight ahead, the reaper's right behind me
Fearing nothing but fear itself but it's that fear that fucking drives me
This feeling is strange like I'm mentally drained
My mind's been erased, nothing ventured is nothing gained
I turn from the light again, in the darkness I feel sane
I'm never coming back, coming back for you
Chorus
Suffocating
Debilitating
I can't breathe
I will never be like them
Nothing more and nothing less
Take your hands from around my neck
I've found my only friend (I've found my only friend)
Within the darkness again (We'll hide together)
I will hide from the pain (Inside my mind)
Seeking the comfort again
My eyes are open wide
I feel it deep inside
The demons within my mind
They're calling me into the light
My anxiety could eat me alive
I'll spread my wings and take flight
Surrounded and devoured by the night
I hold the key in my hand
I won't hide no more I'll take the key
Open up the door to my mind
Open my mind
It's so simple and clear
I am driven by my fear
The things that tear me apart
Are the darkest pieces of my heart
I'm as human as fuck
As human as ever
Got to get the fuck up
Make it all better
I guess I cannot hide
I can't hide forever
Although I fucking tried
I can't hide from my own mind x 2
Chorus

Every day as I awake
I feel a gnawing inside...
I can't explain this feeling, I can't trust myself no more
Losing my sense of reason, it is slipping out the door
Mood's swingin' to and fro now I can't tell if I'll laugh or cry
Sinking to a new low without a single reason why
Chorus:
I'm losing my mind
I have become unstable
This is the decline
Rationality disabled
Creeping tendrils of darkness
Latching onto my thoughts
Tugging on the strings of sanity
Stretching them taut...
Given in to this feeling, mental defence broken down
My mind's committed treason, thought processes are unsound
Chorus
I'm losing my mind
My mental state is frail
This is the decline
My sanity has failed
Total blanket of darkness
Smothering all
Broken and frayed sanity
Dropping into freefall
Enough! Of these! Voices!
Taking! Control! Of me!
I must! Kill them! All off!
Get them! Out of! My head!

Night Terrors
04:08
|
|||
|
Betrayed by my mind again
Turning on itself within the dead of night
Lucid visions of the end
Encroaching darkness always smothering the light
Every night the same
Evil closing in
Have I gone insane?
What's this hell I'm in?
Chorus:
Night Terrors!
Always take control
Night Terrors!
Eroding my soul
Struggling to shake each night's despair
Ominous shadows manifesting in the day
Start seeing omens everywhere
Increasing symptoms of my sanity's decay
Every day the same
Nightmare's closing in
I am going insane
This is hell I'm in
Chorus
I cannot
Free my mind
From it's fears
Dreaming state
And consciousness
Melding into one
Resigned to fate
In my madness
All sanity undone
Every hour the same
Madness has closed in
I have gone insane
An endless hell I'm in
Chorus x 2

Shifting Shadows
06:00

Is this real or do my eyes deceive?
The things I see just should not be
I tell myself not to believe
This visual insanity
Twisted things
Beckoning
Weakening
My reasoning
In the corners of my sight, things begin to shift
But when I turn my head the illusion disappears
Is there another world showing through a rift?
One with things that prey upon our fears?
Are they optical illusions?
Or a strange reality?
Severe mental delusions?
What is happening to me?
Advancing from the edge of sight and slowly taking form
What was once unthinkable has now become the norm
Chorus:
(Shifting)
The shadows come alive
(Changing)
Right before my eyes
No more question, it's completely real
Confusion and terror's all I feel
This new reality has truly taken hold
Two dimensions melding into one
The veil has been torn and the horrors now unfold
Should I take them on or turn around and run?
Terrified and yet I cannot turn away
What's the point there's nowhere I can hide
I brace myself and stumble out into the fray
Using every ounce of strength I have inside
Chorus
Stare them down
Face to face
Hold my ground
Standing strong
Use my will
Take them on
They retreat
From my might
I have them beat
Reality was altered by my mind
Convincing me that what I saw was real
Psychosis is a blurry line
Making madness all I feel.
Chorus

My mind is lost, completely broken down
Just a squirming insect pinned to the ground
Smothered by the darkest shroud
Drawing tighter 'til there's no way out
My sense of being
Cast down by the fire
No hope of fleeing
Trapped as the flames get higher
Curled up and foetal
Hurting like crazy
Thousands of needles
Tattoo inside me
Pre-Chorus
Pain! Fear! Torment! Despair!
Chorus
(God help me!)
I am hurting everywhere
(End my misery)
Paralysed in my despair
Suffocating in despair
Dead and hollow inside
Completely withdrawn
Drowning in the darkness
Broken and forlorn
My sky is starless
Trapped in my body
Barely drawing breath
A complete zombie
Praying for death
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
(Broken down!)
Paralysed and blind
(Save me now!)
A victim of my mind
(Trapped inside!)
There is no escape
(My will has died!)
Abandoned to my fate
Dead and hollow inside

You seize control on the back of lies and smear campaigns
Then turn your back on your nation as it goes up in flames
Chorus
Scotty From Marketing
Where the bloody hell are you??
Oi, Scotty From Marketing!
What were you thinking when you stabbed your party in the back and took control,
Did you think you could run a country on spin alone and get away with it?
When the crisis comes and your country needs a leader you just fuck off to Hawaii and tell your office to lie about it!
Did you think we wouldn't notice?
Maybe you thought we wouldn't mind because our volunteers want to be fighting fires.
It's all good mate, they've got it all under control!
How good is climate change?
Deserting those in need
Our taxes fuel your greed
Vanished without a trace
Then fake concern to save your face
Chorus
Oi, Scotty From Marketing!
Cut your holiday short by one day so you can tell everyone you came home early because you care so much but really, what are you going to do at this point?
I know! You can visit a town that was just incinerated by hellfire and shake some people's hands!
What's that? They don't want to shake your hand?
Fuck it! Just grab their hand and shake it anyway, who cares if it's a pregnant woman whose life just went up in flames?
How good is empathy?
Completely out of touch
Couldn't possibly be much
Less caring if you tried
From leadership you've shied
Chorus
Scotty From Marketing
Hasn't got a fucking clue!
A leader in absentia
Must have fucking dementia!

Everything you've ever known impressed on you since birth
But evidence is never shown to verify its worth
"God's Will" is the answer for the mysteries of the Earth
Pre-Chorus
Open your eyes, look around and you will see the truth
Always search for proof!
Chorus
Everything in the holy book is taken as true history
To question it and present truth is deemed insanity
Science in the house of god is an act of heresy
As experience and education occur throughout your years
Religious doctrine counters it by preying on your fears
You must follow to the letter everything they tell
To go against them is punished by an eternity in hell
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Never let them occupy your mind
Science trumps religion every time
Just because it contradicts their rules
Doesn't mean you should suffer those fools

A spark becomes a fire
Burning my mind's disease
Rekindling my desire
To live, to feel, to breathe
Arising from the hellish depths
Of suffocating apathy
Embracing life's gentle caress
Depression will not take me!
Pre-Chorus:
Reaching inside
Finding the strength
To reclaim my life
(Wash my doubt away)
A rising tide
Of renewed intent
To conquer the strife
(Overcome my demons)
(Cast them all aside)
Chorus:
Stare hard into the darkness
And you will see the light
Your sky is never starless
If you can hold on tight
TO DESIRE!!
Reclaim myself with every breath
Get up and face the day once more
No longer wishing for my death
Excited for my life in store
Pre-Chorus
Chorus

Accelerated Oblivion
03:40
|

|
Always pushing beyond sensible means
Exploiting everything to chase a power dream
Destroying everything in pursuit of the green
Hoarded piles of wealth so fucking obscene
They are the one per cent
Ruling over all
Seemingly hell-bent
On mankind's downfall
Exploiting, pillaging
Backstabbing, deceiving
Chorus:
Unchecked capitalism
Accelerated oblivion
Take down the one per cent
Engineer their fall
It's well past time they went
They'll answer to us all
Awaking, resisting
Rebelling, uprising
Chorus
Sharpen the guillotines
Storm their gates, behead the fiends
Take them down one by one
Fight until the job is done
Rise! Rise!
Fight! Fight!
(x4)
Outro:
We'll stand together
Against the fascists
Retake the world
For the masses
Our strength in numbers
Victory assured
Our justice for
Misery endured
Build a new world
Free from their greed
Ensure survival
Of our breed

Having seen this band live several times (including once in a previous incarnation), to say that I was looking forward to this release would be like saying Siberia can get a little chilly at times. But good godDAMN this album surpassed my expectations!! You may not know it yet, though if you're reading this you may suspect it - you need this album! Simple, but true...

An album full of that kind of chunky, beefy thrash riffs I could listen to all day, comes crunching as dry as a bone! The vocals are a insistently pissed off parlando, just right to make me pissed off too while listening - there's always a reason! Perfect for venting mentally!
