I had drowned last night in linoleum with my lungs on fire and my laurels restless like moths to death lights drawn to the torch become my own demise fuck light senseless All Damned Versions Erased (to) Reduce Seduce And Rape You (adversary) I pushed the devil down I hoped to ignore unwilling to recall what I damned him for and in doing so, relinquished my control of my armory, boundaries crossed/ defenseless FUCK LOVE FUCK LIGHT THIS IS A SPELL THIS POISON HOLDS THE ANTIDOTE

Dark Master 04:44
Wilting are we and those who sought After sincerity Relics of ages bygone Lost to your apathy I’ll invoke heavy waves all for nothing again Victims to some kind of hatred // I am not beholden to anyone // I am disturbing and disgusting, revolting// I invoke you just to I revoke you I’ll invoke heavy waves Erasure pleasures me As it does for you Vile reciprocity I am not beholden to anyone//

The wheel weaves ill will Regardless of how one feels Regardless of what we deem real The wheel weaves ill will Two swords crossed two blinded eyes Cross me and I will wish to die Useless and bound are my eyes Blind and bound they fail to see concrete

The Tower 05:00
I HAVE RELINQUISHED ALL I HAVE KNOWN MYSELF IS VANQUISHED BY MY CONSTRUCTS THE OLD WAY IS DEAD, THIS I KNOW TO LOOK BEHIND, NOW, IS TO CRUMBLE LIGHT A CANDLE FIND AN ANGLE SHADOW SYMBOL SUMMONS SIGNALS LIGHT A CANDLE WATCH THE WAX CRAWL FAN THE FLAME HIGH NO ONE SHALL RISE THIS TOWER OF MINE TALL AND OF IVORY SHALL BE DESTROYED. DEATH TO OLD TIME AN END IS MET I BECOME DEATH MY WILL IS THIS: APOCALYPSE

Hate is my preferred pronoun Although preference is pointless, say it. Say it! Intolerance is met with intolerance You reap what you sow. You fucker. Here is yours. Die slow. Die slow. You’re karmic death leaves you with nothing You will never know the harm you cause You’re causing me harm You cause they harm A true causer …
7.
Stay. Stay here. Stay here with me. What for? For whom this body is bound to. Stay there on the floor. on the ground. You are bound. This shit isn't working anymore you need more. I need more. I don't live in my body...
8.
this lack of love or the lack there of proves strong enough i cannot kill you all on my own now i trade mercy for my own freedom I have broken my own heart before watching my mind destroy itself the tower will fall or fall on deaf ears
9.
I am tired of walking Against the wind I have an adversary And they bare my name Reduced to rows of concrete Pave over and mold me how you want to Forgo my form to span miles Four unheeded warnings Reduced to rebar forearms Hindered by surrounding walls Kept beneath I am tired of walking against the wind I have and adversary and they bare my name this is a spell this is a plea make do with what's left
10.
Everyone is a blur when you are a fool staring across crowded rooms everyone in the room Everyone in their habitation Everyone in their greatest depression everyone is their own oppressor
11.
Abuser, warmonger, reducer Accuser, death-bringer, equalizer Annihilator, obliterator You Fucker! Destroyer! You’re aiming at a mirror Violence returned to sender You are your own disaster Unhealed, self-destroyer

about

This album could not be possible without those that have supported in my artistic journey so far. This album is mostly for me, but I dedicate it in part to the Denver DIY community, for no one ever truly “does it themselves” as it takes a village of the most generous loving and dedicated folx to manifest the truest forms of magick.
