HIMSA LYRICS

1. Anathema

Come close to the unfamiliar warmth
Coy gesture
To paralyze

Beloved
Covetous
Stuns the brute with uninvited praise

The troubled times
The tear aways
Disconnected
But forever demanding

Cataclysm
The slate is clean

Anathema
It’s rapture endearing

Occupied opposition
Modern day mayhem in its place
Trust your fears that deception will come
In the shape of chivalry

Antidote
To this apathy

Initial longing like needles to nerves
Converts into conquered
Kiss it goodbye
The beauty’s conceit
In this house of suffering

What’s been denied
Is now desired

Bound and branded

Deprivation provokes frustration
The copy kill preconceived
Impelled to convert
Amends from this solitude
Recoil victims from travesty

Cataclysm
The slate is clean

Anathema
It’s rapture endearing

Bound and branded
By the crestfallen mark

2. Sleezevil

You’ll never haul the heat to the bite of the grind
To emulate
Digression has left this hard to swallow
Sour notes of dissolution
Played off as dissonance
To make believe
Its attraction

Appearance is violating
Scare tactics an all time low
As an art of seduction is extolled

Incinerate
The harvest
Infernal
Burn them out

The sleaze will hide behind evils device

Insensitive conviction
That seeks shelter in parody
Harlot lips will stick with exaggeration
Social armor but a reason to lie
Calling loud for the crutch of acceptance
Just to make the soundtrack more inviting

No more empathy
Fire away
Fire Away

Smoke never clears
The downfall in its blaze of glory
Alter
Moral crux uncover the real decadence

Censor resistance
Censor resistance
Now
Now
Now
Censor resistance
Censor resistance

Smoke never clears
The downfall in its blaze of glory
Alter
Moral crux uncover the real decadence

Domination
The sleaze will hide behind evils device

Disregard the purchase of faith
But don’t dare to be defiant
Disregard the solicitation that reinvents contempt

Incinerate
The harvest
Infernal
Burn them out

Smoke never clears
The downfall in its blaze of glory
Alter
Moral crux uncover the real decadence

3. The Destroyer

Flawless
So red raw and real
The beast of the street
Speaks faceless to me

Fierce
The deepest of depths
Sends daggers and fire
From each sharing end

Summons
Outcry for battle
A living illusion
Straight to the heart

I enter sanctuary
They bury the dead

Makes way
For pain and promise
Dawning devotion
Numbing all in dismay

Stands alone

Lash out
Strength in submission
Giving to exploits
A swift sudden death

Swarming
Hybrids of exile
Outlaws in anthem
Sketched in even script

Screams clean
Sincerity
To break the crisis
Of a vacant past

Words of wisdom
Words as weapons

Destroyer
You’re course remains unscathed

Destroyer
You’re course remains unscathed

I enter sanctuary
They bury the dead

As the abyss
Is filled
And forgotten

Conviction
The sign of its times
Translates the quarrel with no objection
And issued
Sarcasm and war
To this distant boy
With more desperate needs

My commune
Safe haven
Secures my temperament
And in retrospect
I prevailed with the ones who saved my life

Destroyer
You’re course remains unscathed

Destroyer
You’re course is unscathed

Stand alone

4. Pestilence

Semblance at auction
The belly of the beast
Target implied
From tooth and nail deployment

Institution of youth culture
From a nation
Self contained

Strategy of dictation
Read and refined
Calculations come full circle
So move away from the light

Live and learn
The value of vice
Pestilence
You’re all afflicted

Live and learn
The value of vice

It owns you
Like it owns the new dawns
And changelings
Never stop changing

It’s sole purpose for power
It’s sole purpose for power

Addiction is cunning
So bite the hand that feeds
The want is calling
Mutinying imagery

There is no answer
There is no answer
For the living dead

Possessing privilege
From the law laid down
It’s all been said before

Byproduct for ethos and slogan
Create and consume
And then run like thieves

Live and learn
The value of vice
Pestilence
You’re all afflicted

Live and learn
The value of vice
Pestilence
You’re all afflicted

It’s all been said before
It’s all been said before

Turn out the light
It’s striking

5. Wither

Another whole of nothing
Fit to size
Based on shattered
Bit by shallow
Jump the chance to prove them wrong

Always passing the infinite
With inquisition
It’s never me
It’s never me
It’s never no one
Let it hover
Let it hang like a hex

Among the skeptics and schism
It’s the hope heartfelt
Scandal
Take flight on the winds of escapades

Wither
Inward
From the alluring stray

The bull of kinship
Propelled by the whip
Sinister
A stern mystique
Wise blood
To black lung
It’s undying love
Is the heart of this machine

Wither
Inward

The road of corrosion
Unruly
To solitary existence

Suffer
Again

Can’t turn back
Lost time
Can’t turn back
Lost life
Can’t turn back
Lost life

What did they do?
What did they do to deserve this?

What did they do?
What did they do to deserve this?

Conclusion revealing
Each passing wait
Choosing battles
Who lose in culmination
I’m not the adversary
But I am guilty
Outpouring in ordinary
See all sides but disagree

The road is corroded
With solitary confinement

Wither
Inward

The dust will settle
Once and for all

6. Wolfchild

Downside to dismantle
Is the conflict
Alike you and me
This doom to gloom obsession
The sovereign state of humanity

No renaissance
To gaze upon
To renovate
A feeling for chaos
No remedy or alibi
Through immanent reversal

Divineless intervention
This life is sacrifice

Divineless interjection
The nature of its providence

Pessimistic whirlwind
Donned in sheep’s clothing

A war in the head
I wander by mistake
Dowsing
The inner demons that ambush in dismal tyranny
Enfold in nightmares
Secrets in circumstance
Like black light
To the senses
But there’s healing in this dark

And if I am
In its true form
Then let me be

Divineless intervention
This life is sacrifice

Divineless interjection
The nature of its providence

Ill fated on the cuff of formality
With esoteric belonging
Noted in its medium

Passed down and dealt
The hand of its discipline
Well worn execution
Evoked in volumes of revelry

Divineless intervention

Divineless interjection

7. Seminal

Defy
The rumors to whispers
That makes a crass man bound

Defy
Their break in mercy
To consume the myth through flawlessness

It’s been discovered
What they’ve exposed
Harbors the failures
To what we own
And they comply
To justify
Those shifting winds of conformity

This is a make or break elation
A razor to writs slit recovery
The struggle to botch
Impulsive structure from a slow-handed conspiracy
It Bears to all exploitation
Empowered but uncovered

Seminal
Seminal

Near and dear to our hearts desire
Inception to reign with havoc fist
Call the bluff
On smoking guns
When first loves turn fatality

Defend
Life’s note and fact
The tension to tame the iconoclast
Defend
Life’s torn out pages
And reverse their sands in the hourglass

Bury the hatchet in the name of progression
They’re living on their knees
We walk the line
Stripped and severed
While kindred thoughts build unbearable

Seminal
Seminal

Near and dear to our hearts desire
Inception to reign with havoc fist
Call the bluff
On smoking guns
When first loves turn fatality

Out of step or out of reach
Rapture for the fallen
A piece of them is a part of me
But their voices are left unheard

They never scream
They never starve
They never bleed
They never suffer
And they will never ever understand

Deceive
Those jubilant whores
With the delicate sense in delivery

Deceive
The crashing bores
Who’ve left us hung out to dry and die

Part the seas
And pave your way
To the sirens of new noise
Let the lace be the bait
As the past as the past portrays
While you leave the enemy entertained

We’ll always scream
We’ll always starve
Seminal
Always bleed
Always suffer
We are the sentiment
For we were raised in the shadows

8. They Speak In Swarms

A calm sought out
So raid the guild
Through faint alarm

Forging static
To the horde
Amiss the thrall

The rule at helm
To countdown
And hell’s
Collecting heads

Omens awoke
In fiends of need
To remain forlorn

Residual horror
Begs for life
To no avail

Flesh is fortune
The flight is fortunate
A threat to severe
For satire and fault
Tapping the vein
From fear and fang
Detained in darkness
Stalking droves of aid

No new tale to tell
So strike for survival
Before the now comes crashing down

Appetites or indecisions
Will devour benediction
The last tick of a life long

Faith and disease
Has buried this town
In exhuming doom

Biding time
Assailants expound
In a birth of ruin

Bloodshed resumes
Unforgiving hunger sated
As hunters take their hits
A faction arose
The curse is granted
One to be the savior
Enforcing martyrdom

Now prey

No new tale to tell
So strike for survival
Before the now comes crashing down

Appetites or indecisions
Will devour benediction
The last tick of a life long lost

To cast down
And no way out

Are they as safe as they think they are?
They are not when they speak in swarms

Flesh is fortune
The flight is fortunate
A threat to severe
For satire and fault
Tapping the vein
From fear and fang
Detained in darkness
Stalking droves of aid

Perseverance
In persecution
Looms unforeseen
Avenge for exile
The gist to grave
At zero hours end

Stunned in sound

But they’ll be back

9. Calling In Silent

Here in somber
A pale face of teenage waste
Shuns the young
And buries the exile six feet deep

Freewill finds fury
In ridicule
And instability

Force fed
Half said
This benevolent creation
Love and loathe
The fixation so endlessly

Strip the pride
Secured in egotism
Clings to lips
Spitting truth-absorbing agony

Hold out
Coercion will prolong the drama
Held inflictions
Beware of their return

Courage bestowed
In the stillness sits sedated
Concealed when calling in silent
Outshine

Voiceless deliverance

Don’t come any closer
Patience are wearing

Left behind
Intrepid tone of a cutthroat youth
Left to find
Ways out of torment

Time passed
First with engaging eyes
Now scowled browed
With the closed fist of resistance

Grim days
Sweating hours of slowed misgivings
Spent cursed nights
Mending memories from the blood that’s spilt

Voiceless people

Eye for an eye
Prelude to revenge

Eye for an eye
Prelude to revenge

My war
My way
My war

Boy mundane
Knows where intentions lay
Filtered infection
The brink of self-destruct

Unsung
Invasion of unruly tongue
Low stone cold
Bearer of reprisal

Eye for an eye
Prelude to revenge

Eye for an eye
Prelude to the fatalist
Outshine

Voiceless retaliation

Who is really the lesser of two evils?

My war
My way
My war

The kid still has his say

10. Send Down Your Reign

Obey them
The legion speaks out
Carnal realm will not seize

For rewards in pain
Will make its price so eloquent

Incur
Bare witness
Be torn to shreds within these walls

Tyrannize
Elite breed perversity
Formal with hearts on sleeves
Bloodhounds for the thrashing
Made hell-bent and hammered down

Mortified
At the mention of mercy
Assault on dignity is grievous
It's hook
Takes threshold subjected to paralysis

Incur
Bare witness
Be torn to shreds within these walls
Forsaken strangers
Your domain will drain all confidence

On the vow
On the oath
On the realm
Send down your reign

On the vow
On the oath
On the realm
Send down your reign
In sanctions

Lie and thrive

Vehemence
So valiantly vivid
Preying on pretension
Crossed out
To whispers of the crying innocence

Docile
For salvation
Under watchful eye
For repentance
In sanctity
For subjects in their horror show

Send down your reign
Send down your reign

Seal insurrection
Seal insurrection
In sanctions

Union
The code of silence for theory
Pigs are prepared for the spit
A renewed dispute
Clandestine in its origin

Excursion
Neither seen nor heard
Protectors of inner feuds

Exalted
In instinct
And answer to the nemesis

On the vow
On the oath
On the realm
Send down your reign

On the vow
On the oath
On the realm
Send down your reign

Ignore the warnings
Ignore the warnings
