Pseudogod 03:50
You’re so definite In what you trust You have tendencies To rob whom you must Demand us to submit Enslave us with your wit You rob our innocence So that your power reigns “Come little children, to me I’m God, can’t you see Trust your lives with me I’ll fill your souls with glee Yes come my little children I want to make you mine Before they make you rotten Before you lose your shine I can set you free Trust my Holy truths Come up to me I will heal your wounds” I sense your pseudo cries They’re stained with your lies You want us to bow down To what you call divine Your lemmings can’t see How much you make them bleed I side with what you hate That is my fate It’s time to end What you’ve shown You’ll never be king I’ll burn your throne
2.
Spirit 03:12
There's a spirit That lies above It's always watching Each of us Some pray to it Some don't believe Be careful Don't be deceived We must have come from somewhere Just believe what's right in your heart We have the right to choose What we want from the start It's normal To walk away Just remember You don't have to stay Many people Rub this the wrong way Their words they sell and Your attention you pay There's a spirit Haunting us It won't leave It wants us

You want boys to date girls It’s accepted in this world Maybe they don’t want the girls If they choose to live their lives They have something they must hide Their awful wicked lives You don’t believe that one is ever born this way Unless there’re demons in the children You fight through thick and thin in order to ban their ways Because there’re demons in the children Every day when you wake up You pray that they are done It’s the only way they’re loved And every night before you sleep You start to cry and weep And pray they turn to sheep To turn to sheep is the only way for them To free the demons from the children You’ll fight with all your might in order to ban their ways Because there’re demons in the children It’s the same with girls with girls You shun them from this world ‘Cause they just want the girls You refuse to let them love ‘Cause you don’t call it love You’re so convinced that the only way for them Is to be freed from all the demons It’s been your goal to make sure that you ban their ways Because there’re demons in the children You don’t believe that one is ever born this way Unless there’re demons in the children You fight through thick and thin in order to ban their ways Because there’re demons in the children But one thing that you fail to realize… there’re no demons in the children

Gone 02:54
Anyway you like to hurt me, do it Anyway you like to fool me, do it Any part of me you can’t bear, change it Or if you want to kill me, do it now Gone, is what you want me to be Gone, is what you wish me to be Why, do you want to make me gone You want to make me gone You make interrogations, you know it About the way I live life, you hate it You take my heart and you slice it You relish the fact that I’m condemned You see me for what you hate You hate me for what you see See me for what you shall hate Hate me for what you shall see You want to make me gone You want to make me gone You want to make me gone
5.
You 02:54
You are full of power You are so notorious You are stress-relieving You are so miraculous But I feel unlucky I don't feel so worthy Every time I called your name I felt like you were away Ceilings were the only things That I prayed to but no wings Every moment that I gave Was for nothing what a shame But I now learned something new You (That there really is no "you") You are full of glory You are very clever To have you changes everything You could make me better But I get by without you Am I just that lucky

Frankie 04:07
Frankie You need To stop that useless whining Just grow up and be a man Quit your awful thinking Frankie Damn it Quit hating the world and maybe You’ll find yourself a little piece Of the self you need to be Frankie Your twenties Have gone to waste you damn fool But it’s not late to take a step Use the lessons as tools Frankie Silly Get over your destruction You are so dark and so depressed Time for reconstruction Frankie Messy Yes, you’re very messy With what you call a painful life Spice it up be merry Frankie Self-centered In tune with just yourself Stop caring about what others think Find yourself a new self Frankie I’m calling Will you ever reach me? I’m calling on behalf of your new life Please stop the bleeding Frankie Finally Get your act together You need someone to wake you up Change your mental weather Stop feeling so sorry for yourself Stop feeling like you’re always attacked Stop feeling like you’re all alone Stop whining and be a man

I can't feel joy I can't see light I can't learn truth I have gone blind I want out of this ditch I am lost in abyss I am lost I am scared I can’t go Anywhere This pain's Not right My heart Is blind I yearn to know the truth I once felt joy But it's now wrath Spirit unreal Misguided path I want out of this ditch I am lost in abyss I am lost I am scared I am torn Everywhere I am lost in abyss
8.
I’d been naïve for too long I felt wounds that bled In search of the right love I felt pain instead If only love came with instructions Then again, why should I care? Infatuation to destruction But now I’m aware I am moving on to the future I will heal from the pain I will pick up the pieces I have not gone insane Throughout my life they’ve hurt me A love full of weeds I'm sick of these monsters They’ve caused my heart to bleed Every dark thing in my mind Gets a hold of me But I refuse to wallow In pity I’m moving I’m moving I’m moving

Nowhere 02:43
Where's the exit of this world I've stepped into nowhere Lead me to the exit Gods will fight to dominate me I want out Out of here Let me out Out of here Lights are shining from above Brightly shining on the unseen Where is this light coming from Where's my future headed to Where Is God Now
10.
Death 03:12
Darkness fills the sky When will I realize That I have just now died When punctured with the knives I feel like I'm awake And paralyzed I'd say I can't even shake For God's sake Now the fire burning comes Putting my fear to the test I don't know where this is from But I must be dead I can see thy kingdom come Where is it from It's a big inverted sun That I sit on I can feel the pain Worms are eating my brain I'm going insane I'm decayed Is it time for me to go Am I really dead This now feels like my new home Is this death

about

FREE ALBUM!

There's so much hate, horror, and hypocrisy in organized religion, particularly Christianity because of my personal experience. Yet as an agnostic, the bewilderment and trauma don't ever go away. I'm perpetually dancing with demons in the eyes of both sides for two different reasons. I'm juggling question marks that resemble little demons with no end in sight. The light at the end of the tunnel seems like the perfect lie to build the falsest of hopes. Yet I search and stop, rinse and repeat, like a pathetic fool with a grasp of hope that never dulls. I then ask myself, "Why the insanity?"

[NOTE: This is the 2018 reissue of the original album released on December, 25, 2017 that's no longer available due to a serious data loss in the summer of 2018 that changed my music direction/plans. Aside from the professionally remastered returning tracks and their slight revisions, the major difference is the six new tracks that were originally planned for the cancelled Stains of Scorn sophomore album. "Demon" and the German tracks have been transferred to another album, while the "Post-Babel" interlude was sadly never recovered. Brand-new artwork and digital booklet with lyrics are included.]
