Lullaby of Dissonance

I dive into the noise that I have made with my mind
The failing of my consciousness
I bury the wretched broken expressions deep
The failing of my consciousness
Weep myself to sleep with hopeful disdain
Waiting for the world to come crashing down around me
I hear it all fall to silence, the deafening lack of sound
That pounds on my head
Let it take me to a place that will hopefully end it all
I let it all go
Weep myself to sleep with hopeful disdain
Waiting for the world to come crashing down around me
Oh yeah, this fear builds my courage
Hope it will never see the light of day

The words pour with the ease of a novel
But are filled with the content of a eulogy
Crippled with a crooked tongue
You speak such pretty words
It’s like screaming into the fog and what you’re saying
Only goes as far as you can see
Cut it with a knife
You offer such pretty words
Only goes as far as you can see
Fairly unsavory, yet sweet as honey
To those you favor
Fortunately distasteful, oh the benefit
The air is filled with the fuming stench
It’s like screaming into the fog and what you’re saying
Only goes as far as you can see
Cut it with a knife
You offer such pretty words
Only goes as far as you can see
Such sickly words, dying right on the tip of your tongue
Decay, decay
It’s like screaming into the fog and what you’re saying
Only goes as far as you can see
Cut it with a knife
You offer such pretty words
Only goes as far as you can see
Oh, savior come and teach me my missteps, my failures

Carnivorous Herbivores

Let’s just see how we can help the sheep
Devour the wolves that take their lives
So maliciously that we have seen the light
And sought to turn the tables
Oh, the faithful so faithfully sing
Their songs of praise
Oh, the faithful so faithfully sing
Their songs of praise
Our war against the carnivores
Has taken a turn for the worst
It’s the worst thing imaginable
We end lives and claim peace of mind
Peace of mind
Oh, the faithful so faithfully sing
Their songs of praise
Oh, the faithful so faithfully sing
Their songs of praise
Losing everything we gain nothing again
Losing everything we gain nothing again and again
Losing everything we gain nothing again
Losing everything we gain nothing again and again
Will the faithful so faithfully sing their songs of praise
While failed by the one who promised to end their plight
While they kill the wolves and become wolves themselves
Will the faithful faithfully sing their songs of praise
Will the faithful faithfully sing their songs of praise

Wasteland

Who will really save the ones that don’t have a voice
The only beings that claim to care
Have no power to take down the towers
Where the kings drink and laugh at their failures
Watch them fall like flies
Watch them all die
We need a way to bring life back into their corpses
But do we really want to touch the dead
I don’t think that we have the ability
To keep our hands clean to keep ‘em clean (to keep ourselves clean)
Watch them fall like flies
Watch them all die
We just sit here and bask in the lack of light
Such a lovely wasteland
Watch them fall like flies
Watch them all die

Skyline

I’m not sure where the time it went
It passed without even a whisper
Or a mention of it’s leaving
Leaving into emptiness
But it’s gone, it’s gone
The door closed softly behind you, alone
Now you fade slowly into the distance
But a memory will always linger leaving hopefulness
The stars can’t shine through another night skyline
The stars they can’t shine through at all
The buildings fade
Into nothing while the lights wash out the sky
The stars can’t shine through another night skyline
The stars they can’t shine through at all

Die in Bombay
by DEATH BY FUNGI
Death by Fungi are getting work done out of Mumbai, India. Raw, intense melodic hardcore from a place that needs more exposure on its scene. Blown away by this release.
