Lyrics (Copyright 2015 Dakota Adams. All rights reserved.)
Hanging from the gallows
Of incessant sorrow
I have no solace
This life is full of malice
I’ll never be set free
No one is listening to me
As I lay awake at night
I feel the noose is getting tight
Darkness creeps up all around me
I can’t see the light
Every day I lived, I failed
though I tried so hard just to prevail
I'm shrouded by this darkness
is this all that life entails?
Fuck this life
I am all alone here
What I once was I will never come near
Fuck this life
I am all alone now
I tried to fight it but I don't know how
Suffering alone
In dark shadowed silence
It eviscerates me from head to toe
If I were to die (If I were to die)
The world would carry on without the blink of an eye
Youll never know what it’s like to live a lie
Believe me when I say that you’d be praying to die
Its as if a rope cuts off the blood to my mind
This noose is getting tighter
It's so much tighter
I never thought that things would end like this
It’s like a sick and twisted game of chess
How am I supposed to get ahead
When the king’s already dead?
I am not sane enough to keep living this way
My life is crashing down around me each and every day
It’ safe to say that I’ll be burning in hell
As it turns out had no more fucking soul to sell
Tighten the knot and end the game
It isn’t worth it to live this way
Tighten the knot and end the game
It isn’t worth it to live this way

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly.
Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant. jim_fuego

Punishing breakdowns, a screamer with a full range, obscure jazz-like sweeping scales, and tasteful effects, come together nicely here. Not to discredit the rest of the band at all.
great job.
