about

The opening track "Possessed" reveals our main character; a young boy born and raised in a little village deep in the woods.
During his childhood and into adolescence, he constantly struggles with sickening thoughts,
involuntary twitches and even voices in his mind during nighttime.
With no help to get in the religious and enclosed village that frowns upon being "Different", he has no other choice than
to keep the problem to himself which leads to insanity.

lyrics

I shouldn't sleep, I'll wake up on the other side
I cannot eat, I'm not clean
No rest, I've been bad, I need to repent
confess, I'm possessed

Nightmare
But I can't tell anyone
I'm on my own
reject, neglect
Nightmare
But I can't tell anyone
I'm on my own
reject, neglect

They're looking over my shoulder
eyes in the dark, everywhere, they watch, they stare
I seek refuge in the streets at night
in the alleys, clear of the lights, their eyes and obedient minds
fast heart rate, looming in the shadows
until my escape comes to end
night turns to day, my body aches and swells
I fall asleep, through a portal to hell

red eyes
grinding teeth
in my mind there's a portal to hell

I shouldn't sleep, I'll wake up on the other side
I can't eat, I'm not clean
No rest, I've been bad, I need to repent,
confess, I'm possessed

shut your mouth
shut your ear
shut your fucking face
you didn't see nor hear

I'll peel your eyes
I'll cut your ears
I will rip out your tongue
so you won't tell anyone


Nightmare
But I can't tell anyone
I'm on my own
reject, neglect
Nightmare
But I can't tell anyone
I'm on my own
reject, neglect
Nightmare
But I can't tell anyone
I'm on my own
reject, neglect
Nightmare
But I can't tell anyone
I'm on my own
reject, neglect
