This time I can’t just touch and go, another night turned down.
Easier than drowning in education.
Shut your big mouth or else your big mouth will be shut out.
Get better, get happy before we explode; before we seek out asylum.
No comfort zones; lets stack sums of the troubles that we’ve known.
We went last for all else just to expose our souls to this place of misfortune.
In an ocean of animosity, I’m the fool who fell for love.
Cage your pretty bird before the fat-cats lie and sing trickery to take it away.
Now is the correct timing.
It’s the right temperature for decomposition in the city,
and the proper ritualistic arrangement sits in wait.
Evidence a fate that must speak your truth.
Kicked out the sliding direction.
Only those with something to gain can come along on the ride.
The million limited worried by what we are celebrating.
They’ll never know for sure; We speak only…
In language of modern location.
So far hollowed out. Can’t crack.
Square might take the circle back.
Flailing like an un-sober soul.
Must continue through fire I walk,
And It’s already set off
Don’t you panic, it’s all going to… BURN!
Quickly before we can defile with startling efficiency.
Oh hell no! I do not belong with the rats.
Submission to compassionate passionless targets for destructive shame.
I’ll not remain trapped inside of a kingdom that died and they tell me it lives but they can’t help but lie.
But I promise to speak honestly despite perhaps misunderstood.
Surely these are troubled times and there isn’t time to fight when you notice that we are flat lining.
Try to change me all you want; I will not dig my own grave.
No way!

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly.
Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant. jim_fuego
