"SONG OF THE SWAMP" lyrics
"SONG OF THE SWAMP"
There's a dark swarm growing from beyond the trees
It feeds on the spoils, killing more than it eats
There is no suffering in silence, hear the song of the swamp
It's a jaw-locked fight for your life to the top
Chomp
Chomp
Baptized in the mire of the lower lands
Set apart from the cower of the common man
Deep down in the shadows of the pale moon
There's a bellow in the evergloom
It calls me by name
It calls me by name
Eyes roll back when the teeth bite down
The beast stays fed and the weak will drown
Deeper and deeper, down to the bottom you go
Leave the bones for the bottom feeders and flesh for the crows
Hid in shadows, lurking in the dark
Scarred by jaws, refusing to be starved
When the sun sinks
And the scales begin to rise
There's a wake in the water
Behind godless eyes
Eat
Eyes roll back when the teeth bite down
The beast stays fed and the weak will drown
Deeper and deeper, down to the bottom you go
Leave the bones for the bottom feeders and flesh for the crows
Alligators, the American version of the crocodile
Lie hidden in the swamps
Fish are the basis of their diet
But they eat anything they can overpower
Overpower
Overpower

thrown - "parasite" What is done in the dark will
Eventually come to light
So keep talking behind my back
But don't be surprised when I turn around
Be careful what you hide
And how you run your mouth
Parasite

Like Moths To Flames - "Habitual Decline" What the fuck is faith
A blank slate stained black
Dissolve into infinity
What the fuck is truth
Painted lies, the demise of the mind
Habitual decline
It's hard to see in the voids I create
Spiral...
Currents - "Kill The Ache" How much more do you think it takes?
They're only here to sell you lies
It's no surprise
'Cause every day I've been waiting for some kind of break
Searching for permanence
A place that I can go
To...
Polaris - "Relapse" I could sit and watch in silence
As the space grows in between
Returns me to a grim serenity
But every breath I breathe I crave it
The solemn slow surrender
The bitter pill to medicate me, sedate me...
Savage Hands - "Useless" I can't control the way I feel
I feel you clenching me, and it's against my will
I'm gonna take back my life
Forget what you say
Every single thing
Always questioning
Everything I've always done...
