lyrics

I will remain unbound, but I strive for perfection
I'm reaching out for anything that I can still control
And as the blood drips down from the tips of my fingers..
I have never faltered
Holding on to the secrets that make me a monster
Its the only way, yet still I survive a slave

I needed you, but you were taken from me
(I'm begging for your guidance)
I'm falling fast and further away
(I'm lost in this subsidence.. I owe this all to you)
But in the end it means nothing
This is my beautiful disease, my only desire

Don't say a word..forever silent
I'm going to end your timeless suffering
You were a waste before I met you
I have created something marvelous
I see red
Ive become my primal self
This fascinates me.. taking your life will help complete me

Don't you stand
There and pretend that everything is okay
Tick tick tick
That is the sound of your life running out
Close your eyes
And everything will fade away
Tick tick tick
That is the sound of your life running out
This is the sound of your life running out

And you were taken from me
(I'm begging for your guidance)
I'm falling fast and further away
(I'm lost in this subsidence.. I owe this all to you)
But in the end it means nothing
This is my beautiful disease, my only desire
Oh..how I long for one more kill
Just to feel the life as it leaves its prison
No longer given the chance to repent, and all is forgiven

Terrifiant, ravageur, l'album vous en met plein la g... pendant plus d'1 heure. A ce titre, il est sans doute un peu trop long, et difficilement assimilable. Néanmoins, cela reste un très bon album sur le plan musical - mais j'avoue écouter très peu de tech-death... baudelagon
