Grant them blissful abortion Justified mindless contortion Grant them blissful abortion "The choice is yours" They swallow it raw Pillars of four Swallowing the law Procreation - An ethical right New life - an absence of might Unsupervised growth They'll eternally loathe Society pushes forward lies as it seem

paper tiger 03:12
Fall in line; fall in line It’s time to end time The hourglass is running out The sands of time end all doubt Hunt the hunters Gather the gatherers It’s crystal clear Time sheds no tear Slitting the throat of the universe The Creator can imagine nothing worse Eat the affluent Curb your temperament It’s crystal clear Time sheds no tear Kill the creator Eternal endeavor Will you stand the test? Before you fall in line Everyone sing: “It’s time to end time” It’s the end of mankind It’s the end of all

cult 03:58
Celestial body An infinite trail What it has taught me We’re doomed to fail An imaginary master We’ll follow his road to disaster We gather around the tail end Set sail towards the end my friend But we will never Stay forever in limbo All will turn to black Existence will be no more The exchange will be fulfilled A run of the mill happening Our leader was a false prophet But we were divinely blessed False prophet!

former self 04:49
Is there anything left to say? Disheartening vicious dismay Drifting further apart Do we share the same heart? The inception was of fool's gold Lo and behold My heart was already sold Now a skeletal shell of my former self A hollowed soul of heart and hate I beg to be taken back Into the warm embrace of the sun My goddess become undone Is there anything left to say? Unsettling thriving decay Drifting further apart Are we ready; depart The declaration was uncontrolled Lo and behold A clash of discrepancies We yearn for our indifferent moralities Parched and peculiar We drink each other’s affection Now a skeletal shell of my former self A hollowed soul of heart and hate I beg to be taken back Into the warm embrace of the sun

coda 04:03
Two children of the night Came to me with grave intentions A semantic deliverance A cryptic message of death Two children of the night Will set all things right They said: “this is the end of man” “This is the end of pain” They said: “this is the final tale, the end of man “This is the end” Confused; I looked outside Greying of the skies A sign of the end times Waves of death emerge A sign of the end times The waves of doom and death approach The end approaches The end is near This is a revolutionary suicide

ebb//flow 03:57
Ridiculing the righteous Riding the wave They squander the plunder And they waste the wild in me Justification comes tenfold Justified, those who behold They abandon the branded With a lack of connection And false dichotomies They ebb and flow Will they ever know? An ever-growing infection With no sign of connection Speaking false dichotomies They were never meant to be Blurting out intricacies

cold sweat 04:29
They're all oblivious They're all so devious They walk about The numb living dead Unaware of what’s ahead The numb living dead The sickness will spread They dread the reanimation They flee the living contagion They all shall perish Thirsty and dying Ignorance is bliss Grant them a deathwish Ignorance is bliss Cry me a river They’re all devious They will all die young So devious A cancer is spreading Unaware of where they're heading Let's get back on track Suicide is the new black

 Grant them a deathwish Ignorance is bliss They're all oblivious They will all die young They're dying They’re all oblivious

coma 04:00
(We are not committing suicide; it’s a revolutionary act. I’d like to choose my own kind of death for a change. If we can’t live in peace then let us die in peace. We didn’t commit suicide, we committed an act of revolutionary suicide, protesting the conditions of an inhumane world. I’d like to choose my own kind of death for a change.) Where were they all this time? I welcome their arrival Where were they? Where they in the nether? I welcome their arrival Can you believe the end is near? Can you believe the end is here? Can you believe the end is near? Can you believe it’s the end of fear? Paradise is not our fate Paradise does not await Dissolve into oblivion Expect not Elysium They will eradicate you one by one

power schism 04:08
What ever could it be? The world is drenched in hyperbole Headlines heard through grapevines Headlines a sign of the times Sensationalism is the new power schism Create, post and become the ghost And reap what you have sown Create, post and become the ghost Chaos rule supreme In your wildest dreams The seeds of confusion Makes the masses run amok Gatherings in the streets in the thousands But it’s all just your imagination Now your punishment is nigh The battle of a thousand is a tie Chaos rule supreme In your wildest dreams You reap what you have sown Reap what you have sown

about

Comatose is a title that represents in a plethora of ways. It’s about the fact that many people are asleep, but even from a coma, one can arise. On the surface it might seem extremely dark, nihilistic and bearing of a defeatist attitude, but darkness cannot exist where there’s light. We all exist in the age of enlightenment and even though it seems as if we’re all screwed and the earth is almost destroyed, times will surely change. Arise from the coma, no longer comatose, we fight the demons.

The artwork for Comatose depicts Kali, whose name translates to “she who is death”, as a mere mortal. To serve the title of the album, the majority of mankind are asleep and oblivious as to what is going on around them. Ultimately, we are death. However, there is no darkness without the light - let us all arise from the coma.
