lyrics

The only lesson we cannot afford
The knowledge worthless if gumption ignored
Into the vessel it cannot be poured
Stripped of all adversity we’ll find no identity
and we fall back on consumer culture of
hyper vapidity
soaking wet with pathology
Consider the role of tragedy in maturity
tension in release
Atrophy was always working play into our hands
Mother nature beckons you do not understand
What else can you say except
it’s easy to get fat in this land but
All the muscle in the world wont make your blade sing
All the money in the world wont make your blade sing
That safety you seek makes good for nothing
Weapons of Complacency
Pacified by theodicy
Kindness and blue skies in lieu of
sour taste of reality
depreciated
Not everything used to be so soaked in pathology
and the pleasure of agreeance makes us
cling to shaking hands
Mother nature becons you do not understand
What else can you say it’s just
it’s easy to get fat in this land but
All the muscle in the world wont make your blade sing
(don’t) trust me there is no solace in their luxury
Trust me there is no solace in their luxury
There is no solace in their luxury

Of Violence

Hard to explain what I like about the beginning, I think it's the dream like / surreal-like feeling of the initial chords and the ensuing riffs which feels a bit like a spiral, a bit mesmerizing. Alejandro Yanez
