There is a weakness in the flesh
A poisoned splinter steals our breath
At first gently, still unknown
In time pain cracks the bone
As cold descends
Nausea without end
Engrave these words upon your heart
It doesn't matter how virtuous you are
Our bodies all are doomed to fail
How fragile is this mortal veil
Pierced by steel in fullest flood
Introduce the poison into blood
It attacks you and your cancer
Hope this kills it slightly faster
Engrave these words upon your heart
It doesn't matter how fortunate you are
Our bodies all will cease, will halt
How or when, it's not your fault
Death is our fate
Our graves await
Be not afraid
Be not ashamed
Our loves remain
Our hearts engraved
A true masterpiece. I don't say nice things about guitar music often, but I truly believe is a game-changer in contemporary death metal. I'm not gonna gush about how phenomenal it is because I don't believe that my words can properly do it justice, so instead I highly recommend that y'all pick it up for yourselves.
Plus, the drumming is top fucking notch. Jenn Taiga
