CONFUSION

Eternal restlessness haunts me
My dreams are all shadows lurking
I don’t want to believe it’s real
I don’t want to accept my fate
I cannot comprehend this emptiness that has taken my mind into the nothingness that is Null and Void
Is this a dream or is it not what it seems
I cannot believe that this is happening to me
Trapped in my mind
Death will not leave me behind
There was never any chance to turn back
My skin is cold
My lungs collapsed
I cannot see
I can only hear the dead screaming
I thought I would rest in peace yet I am still here
Awoken again
Disoriented
Another failure that peaks its head over my shoulder
In the corner of my eye
Always watching
Always waiting to feast on every single consistent mistake I make
Never rest in peace
There is no love here
There is no happiness
There is no anything
You have no purpose
We are all nothing

DOUBT

Mind won’t stop racing
Another day lies ahead
Coming to terms with the life I’ve led
Drowning in the Void
Nothing stopped me then
What’s there to stop me now
Nothing’s changed
It’s all the same
What a mess I’ve made
Why can’t it all be okay
When can it all be okay
(There is no other option)
It will never be okay
I can see the end
I can almost grasp it
I could take my life
Hatred manifested
I can see the end
I can almost grasp it
I could take my life
I could take all of this pain away
Throw my life away
Too terrified
Too filled with rage
Too horrified
Fight or flight
Terrified of the unknown
Doubt and worry occupies my mind
Terrors of what may be waiting for me on the other side of this hell
Will I ever rest
Doubt it
I doubt it
Doubt it
I doubt it
Doubt it
I doubt it
Doubt it
I doubt it

Dying of uncertainty
(Suffocating)
Need to get out of this hell
(Please set me free)
I can feel my chest and mind slowly collapsing
Behind my eyes the pain swallows my brain whole
Restless
Hopeless
Confused
Bastard
When I sleep I fade away but when I wake it’s all the same thing
Everyday’s something different
There’s no escape from the confusion
Lost in my mind
There’s two sides to a brain but I’m insane and I can’t get a grip
Not sure who I really am
I’m plagued by unstable emotions
Failure seems to be my only stability
Chaos suffocates my soul
I cannot stand being all alone
I cannot stand being all alone
I cannot stand being all alone
By myself with my thoughts and left to rot
Anxiety wraps its hands around my throat
All I can do is choke
I close my eyes to escape but my thoughts manifest in the dark
[Countless hours I’ve spent
Wasting my time
Tipping towers that I see in my mind
[Involuntary visions of pain from in my brain
Shadows of fear inside that creep out from under me]
[Shadows of fear inside that creep up from under me]
[This is what they all want to see]
[Why can’t they let me rest in peace
Take this shit from my brain
And eat my eyes
Just to keep me sane
Involuntary visions of pain eviscerate my skull from within]
My mind is always such a mess
I cannot remember a time I did not feel this way
[Eat from the open wound
It will be coming soon
Entrails of hate and gloom]
[Nothing to feel inside
Death is my loving bride
Death is my loving bride
Lay with me in my tomb]
In my tomb

EMPTINESS
04:03
|
|

|
Suspended by strings of anxiety
Can’t look down
No sign of help around
Surrounded by empty space and darkness
No idea where solace can be found
Scraping along
(Dying)
Trying my best
(Dying)
Nothing feels real
(Dying)
Trying to find the soul that guides me deeper into
(Nothing)
Feeling empty
(Nothing)
No sense of self
(Nothing)
Why am I forced to feel like this all the time
All the time
Why all the time
Who am I
Who am I all the time
(Who am I)
Who am I all the time
(Who am I)
Who am I all the time
(Who am I)
Who am I all the time
(Who am I)
Who am I
When I come around
I’m lost and never found
I see things differently
No consistency
No consistency
Nothing left in this world for me
Can’t see
Can’t feel
Can’t hear
Can’t get a grip
No idea what is wrong
I can’t escape
Can’t move along
Don’t understand what’s going on
I’m losing it
I’m all but gone
I’m losing it
I’m all but gone
I’m losing it
I’m all but gone
I’m losing it
I’m all but gone
I’m losing it
I’m all but gone
I’m losing it
I’m all but gone
I’m losing it
I’m all but gone
Something in my head is not okay
No one should ever have to feel this way
I want to feel okay

ALONE
03:32

|

Am I all alone
In this Void I call home
Am I all alone
Everything I’ve ever known
Gone
Ripped from weary grasp
I always knew these memories would never last
I can’t complete the thought
These foggy dreams seem to fade away and rot
Leaving me with nothing no matter how hard I fought
I will always lose
Broken psyche filled with frustration
Everything I think I know and thought I knew has been reduced to constant fears that choke me into a comatose state
Constant fear
No escape
Constant doubt
No more faith
Constant fear
No escape
Constant doubt
No more faith
Rest assured
When I’m gone I will be nothing more than rotting flesh and parasites
Dead and gone
Forgotten
No more hate
No more pain
No more life
No more torture
No more fear
No more doubt
No more life
No more torture
Just an empty cadaver
Just an empty corpse
Don’t try to save me
It’ll only get worse
It’ll only get worse

All dreams will cease to exist
Follow your heart into the Void
Eyes closed
The nightmare begins
Struggle to find peace within
Peace within
Everything I love will be forgotten
Peace within
All that’s good will die and be replaced with sin
Sift through the ash to find what you are here for and realize its insignificance has taken you very far away from what you’ve always loved and needed
(Now it’s gone)
Now it’s gone
(Now it’s gone)
Now it’s gone
(Now it’s gone)
Now it’s gone
(Now it’s gone)
Now it’s gone
Now it’s gone
Now it’s gone
Now it’s gone
Now it’s gone
Now it’s gone
Now it’s gone
Now it’s gone
Now it’s gone
[How could I have ever forgotten about you
When I can still feel your heartbeat
And I can still feel your presence]
[I held on for dear life
I held on]
[Now it’s gone
Now it’s gone
My love has lost
Now it’s gone
Now it’s gone]
[Gone]
I could not make you stay
May you find your way
(May you find your way)
Far away from home
Hopelessly lost in this hell I created
I perish and suffer with no escape from myself
All the demons dance around me

MEANINGLESS
03:43

I’ll never get the point
Why should I have to deal with any of this
I’ll just never understand
But I still want to live
What lies ahead
Is this all for nought

DEATH

Abyss
Sing to me
Take me
Far away
From this broken place
Take my life away
Creep from the depths
Drag me down below
Sing to me
Oh sweet nothing sing to me please
Sing to me your broken song and mend the wounds inside my mind
I’ve waited long enough to feel you creep up from the depths and take me
Take far away from life and all its hell it spews constantly
I cannot wait any longer I just want it all to go away
Go away
Go away
Go away
Confusion and emptiness has led me to want none of this
I can’t live like this
I can’t do it anymore
(I can’t do it anymore)
(I can’t do it anymore)
Sick of living in this godforsaken world
Let it die
Let it die
(Weep)
This is all your fault
(Weep)
This is all for nought
(Weep)
This is emptiness
(Weep)
This is all going to end
All of this will go away
All of you will waste away
All of this will be erased
Your thoughts will fade
Weep
Weep
Weep
Weep
Fade away
Die

NOTHING

Bastard son that will never shine
Just a dead star in a corpse’s rotting eyes
Left alone in this damned broken world
Trying to live
Won’t give in to your lies
Trying to cope with the loss of all of my instincts
Can’t feel my way out of this darkened hellhole that is my existence
Trying to cope with the loss of all of my instincts
Can’t feel my way out of this darkened hellhole that is my existence
(Resisting temptation)
Contemplating ending it
(Resisting temptation)
Contemplating ending it all
Don’t do it
(Rest in peace)
Don’t do it
(Rest in peace)
I can’t seem to understand why
Just a dead star in a corpse’s rotting eyes
Just a dead star in a corpse’s rotting eyes
Ripped to pieces
I will die alone
I have nowhere to call home
Nowhere to rest my head
Always wishing I was dead
No where to call home
I thought you’d never leave
When you’re dead I’ll be relieved
There will be no more pain
There will be no more shame
No more shame
Sick to my core
These words clench my heart and rip it out
Unknowingly abandoned at birth
Empty eyes staring into my soul
I will always try to love you
I will always fail
I will always try to love you
I will always fail
I will always try to love you
I will always fail

Time stands still
I’ve awoken from my dream
Can’t escape
My body won’t break free
Misery
Trapped in a cerebral penitentiary of horrors
Consumed by the looming terror that endlessly haunts me
Crushed by the weight of anxiety and uncertainty
Void of any hope
Any love
Anybody save me
All my surroundings look hollow and bleak
Painted portraits of all of my distortions cover every wall that I cannot tear down
Cries of the Beyond howl in my direction
Taunting me
Calling me
Please come home
Fall asleep
[I’m drowning in this pain
There is nothing left
Saved for the infinite depths
And now I sink]
[And I sink]
[The black fathoms are crushing me]
[Sinking]
Sinking
[Sinking]
Sinking
[Always sinking]
Into infinite depths
[Sinking]
(I am home)

REGRET

(Doubt clouds my manic mind
Constant disillusion leaves me faithless
I’m all alone)
I’ve been forgotten
My whole life has been a meaningless failure
Nothing can save me from sinking below
Nothing can save me from sinking below
I have always felt this way
It will never end
I’m just so tired
I’m tired of waiting for the end
(I am home)
(I am home)
Ever since the beginning it’s always been a cry for help
But no one truly cares for you and no one truly cares for anyone but themselves
I’m so close
(I am home)
(I am home)
When I die I will never rest
When I die I will sink to the depths
Swallowed by regret
(Swallowed by regret)
I am home
I am home
I am home
I am home
CONFUSION | EMPTINESS | DEATH
CONFUSION | EMPTINESS | DEATH
My life has been nothing but confusion
No feelings
Nothing left
Just emptiness
I’m ready for the end
Give me death
Consumed by regret
This is where I die

Powerful and atmospheric record from one of the brightest Belarusian bands. It's perceiving much slower then predecessor, but has a lot of hooks and more memorable songs. Great record!

So, technical death metal often feels like quite the slog (or show-off), if the song writing skills / self-control of the band are not that high. This album is not a drag at all. Listening to this, even though it is top-notch-busy tech-death is way more calming than even trying to pronounce the band's name. Reminds me of Necrophagist quite a lot, which is one of the biggest achievements a tech-death-band can achieve in my book. Even the 5 minute ambient outro passes by in a few heartbeats.
