Silence falls on fallow lands Where boundaries are all blurring A silence not of slumber pierced by cries of infants stirring A man dressed in robes of white Approaches from the darkened gloom Idly passing corpses in The streets that have become a tomb A warning rang out Like a shot in the night Alas it fell upon Deaf ears Like fuel to the fire Breath wasted on denial Serves to ignite our Deepest fears Waiting transfixed at the threshold Confined by our conscience unable to act Stymied each step by executive ignorance Hopeless to separate fiction from fact Our crisis of fate has not been averted It's toll amplified negligently at best Evidence disregarded and experts ignored Have allowed the plague rats to infest A warning rang out Like a shot in the night Alas it fell upon Deaf ears Like fuel to the fire Breath wasted on denial Serves to ignite our Deepest fears Silence falls on fallow lands Boundaries blurring in the gloom Pay respect to fallen friends The streets that have become their tomb

Bloodless 06:25
The fading sun, low in the sky Shadows extend, twisted awry Faces of fear, that horrify How can I look them in the eye A silent scream, a wordless cry All logic lost, nature defied Clutching at the chest and stiff with rigor mortis (but the) Calm upon the face is certain to mislead Lacking the lividity anticipated (so we) Cut into the sallow flesh to see them bleed ...But they don't bleed, they are bloodless Dusty and cracked, and crimson red The desert sands on which we tread This barren wasteland, smoldering dread Within the veins that once had bled A cracked and crumbling, dry river bed Eyes plastered open, already dead Clutching at the chest and stiff with rigor mortis (but the) Calm upon the face is certain to mislead Lacking the lividity anticipated (so we) Cut into the sallow flesh to see them bleed ...But they don't bleed, they are bloodless Deeply deprived sins un-atoned Your heavy head sinks like a stone A smoking gun white knuckle gripped The trigger finger, that never slipped Our judgement day is now at hand Waters arise consume the land

Tossing and turning and losing sleep Unsure how I found myself so deep Holding the key but suffused with doubt Why am I labeled the odd man out? Cut adrift contemplating my mortality Fall beyond comprehension of reality Search for more explanations anywhere Stave away machinations of despair Cover up my face from fear of casting this spell upon the world Disengage, break from society isolating the affliction Terminate, eradicate the strain interrupting its mutation Tossing and turning and wide awake Unsure how much more my mind can take Holding my tongue unable to shout Refusing to be the odd man out Cut adrift contemplating my mortality Fall beyond comprehension of reality Drawn into resignations shrouded snare Stave away machinations of despair Cover up my face from fear of casting this spell upon the world Disengage, break from society isolating the affliction Terminate, eradicate the strain interrupting its mutation Cut adrift contemplating my mortality Fall beyond comprehension of reality Turn towards obligations unaware Stave away machinations of despair Cover up my face from fear of casting this spell upon the world Disengage, break from society isolating the affliction Terminate, eradicate the strain interrupting its mutation Dousing and burning the bridge behind Indifferent to my own decline Turning the key now there is no doubt I am becoming the odd man out

How can we disinfect the filth of life, of human flesh The skin that boils with staph and spoils, The scabs to pick, nails bitten to the quick. Enough to make your stomach turn, enough to make you sick The body once believed a temple built on hallowed ground A penitentiary of sludge within which we are bound How can we sterilize the contents of our tainted veins Without inadvertently extinguishing the flames Disinfect the wretched husks into which we are born How does one look upon oneself with any thought but scorn The dirtiest cesspool of waste in the known universe Flesh liability until lain dead inside a hearse Desperation sets in common sense becomes neglected Malady less lethal than the disinfectants we've injected Madness has galvanized pursuit of remedies obscene And nothing trumps the misuse of hydroxychloroquine Disinfect the wretched husks into which we are born How does one look upon oneself with any thought but scorn The dirtiest cesspool of waste in the known universe Flesh liability until lain dead inside a hearse

Wildfire 03:53
Blazing like wildfire across the blackened sky The iron of our desire begins to rust Fatal miscalculation no time to wonder why Cause of decayed rotation a mote of dust Initiate the protocol Self-quarantined within these walls Isolate isotopes unearth the root our only hope Dowse the flames Extinguish that which can't be tamed Suffocate Dispossess the lies that fuel the hate Forgoing inoculation in favor of lies Missing the queue until too far gone to recognize Ivermectin won't protect you from what you deny A stain on the world undeserving of care as you die Forgoing inoculation in favor of lies Missing the queue until too far gone to recognize Ivermectin won't protect you from what you deny Gasping for breath, bitterness and regret Un-vaccinated your fetor a threat A stain on the world undeserving of care as you die Dowse the flames Extinguish that which can't be tamed Asphyxiate Dispossess the lies that fuel the hate

Vector3 03:04
Don't assume invaders hail from distant realms Roving creation to rain infirmity Straightforward answers are often the least likely explanations for the phenomenons you observe Primordial entities exiled to the exosphere Millennia passed in solitude before they reappear Hostile environment forcing them to adapt Metamorphosis time it's catalyst preparing to attack Arrogance delivers bittersweet reward Icarus's lesson callously ignored Wings intact but bearing our infectious seed Engineered advance becomes our worst misdeed Assumed a harmless passenger, on the journey out benign Beset upon by radiation, in the freezing grip of space Altering it's very nature, mutating and biding time Malignantly does it return, to humanity's warm embrace

Spread 05:18
Torrents of foul congestion weirs choke and overflow Preposterous suggestion the seeds the pundits sow Begrudging isolation wracked echo chamber walls Spoon fed misinformation the dissonance appalls Caught in the flood propelled careening toward the falls Programmed to please and pander the algorithms fail To honor truth and candor the charlatans prevail Sadistic sick alliance behind a baleful cause Buffoons denying science to thunderous applause Visage laid bare contagion spewing from the jaws Vile disease borne on intelligence defiled Deceit beyond all recompense The toll untold The liar that sold our soul extolled the ire that spits and spreads death

Virulence attacks through the lungs Bloodstream beset by mephitic infraction Arteries clotting and choked Evisceration by a rapid reaction Internal bleeding suffuses the brain Disrupting synapses to drive you insane In to the core face the strain as the poison enters the veins paralyzed out of time and the pressure begins to climb from the depths of the void turn the key or else be destroyed Sore distended lungs, hyperventilate Alkalitic blood keeps the putrescence at bay Ulcerated guts, liver functions shot Acid pumping heart slows the toxic rot An alcoholic's vice, a screaming baby's breath Bound by circumstances - scared to death! In to the core face the strain as the poison enters the veins paralyzed out of time and the pressure begins to climb from the depths of the void turn the key or else be destroyed
