LYRICS: 01 Conflagration 0:00 "may the cracks in the skin grow into a burning maw consuming what has been built as if none of it had been at all may the depths release the volcanic wrath within vomiting forth molten scorn reducing flesh and matter to naught may the rain of vengeance cascade with flaming fury burying these fields of shame under a blanket of brimstone and ash calling for a conflagration no thing worth salvaging no reason for mercy as from below so from above come fiery death with or without rebirth come glorious conflagration blissful radiant death" ~ 02 Vermin 06:05 "reclaimed by weeds outside in the mold, the dirt conceal yet reveal misery fountain a bitter spring wells with disgust to flood all else peeled off paint unveils the ugliness under the thin surface of hollow words and forced smiles nothing but vermin ever roamed these rooms over every threshold another dead end no face. no name no home. no place no soul. no grace lay waste. efface no gate. no path no form. no shape no stone. no trace wipe out. erase" ~ 03 Sun 11:39 "willful pawns gleeful servants under the flag of imperial reverie of feral greed bottomless and cruel let a sun be borne out of you as you lie in soil that repels you callous slaughter under a star of common suffering sins of the past now mirrored in an ugly reflection let the sun turn black on you as it weeps crimson in your rivers let the sun turn black on you" ~ 04 Machine Gun 16:02 original text by Portishead: "I saw a saviour A saviour come my way I thought I'd see it In the cold light of day But now I realise that I'm Only for me If only I could see Return myself to me And recognise the poison in my heart There is no other place No one else I face The remedy will agree with how I feel Here in my reflecting What more can I say? For I am guilty For the voice that I obey Too scared to sacrifice a choice Chosen for me If only I could see Return myself to me And recognise the poison in my heart There is no other place No one else I face The remedy, to agree with how I feel"
