Darkness falls across the land unveiling gloom unto mankind
Hand by hand reflected is the fear that pools up inside the hive
Its empty crevaces remain their only guide
A remnant reality they know not a dream
Noctiphobia
Rationing all of the mercy that's left
Should it emerge they will revel in it
Cold runs their blood, frigid are their veins, their burden to bare, existence is their bane
Sightless to the hive, but there could never be sight for their eyes
A mass suicide visciously inscribed
So ignorant to the death, crawling up their leg
Left to the night are they, barren and vast
They live in only memories a grim epitaph
Their forefathers forgo their resting place
Leaving only empty graves
The forefeiture all but in vain
The serve to blanked the deceipt
The sense are regained with a fight or flight mentality
The onset of pure fear as obscure as a dream
Chemicals pulse through their veins as panic ceases all cognition, basic functions left corrupted ripped at the seams
Conditioned to the grasp of death
No journey to treacherous
Thought recalled to empty depths
Bertrayed by those whom they left
Consciousnes grips them, tunnel vision fades
Indifferent should they vanish from this life
No there will never be sight for their eyes
A mass suicide visciously inscribed
So ignorant to the death, crawling up their leg
Left to the night are they, barren and vast
They live in only memories a grim epitaph

Lyrics: Cory Lane and Nathan Shortt
Absolutely crushing dissonant death metal!
With great production and tight performance from these meat sacks, this dark brutal dissonant masterpiece will be on my favorite list forever.
Don't pass up this album, trust me it's fuckin great!
