Foreword 01:45
I am all you've ever been I'm man made Oblivion Feed me your consciousness Free me, so you may rest Now you can relish the fact that you're never alone As long as I'm here Know your heart has a home Hold onto your hope You'll one day be complete Come to your senses You’ll always need me When they all have forsaken I will be your revenge When they all have forgotten Rest your head inside my hands

Faceless 02:07
The only one that can kill me is me Well, I've tried that for centuries I sold my soul for this seed of salvation This convalescence bleeds Out the essence it breeds Self destruction is all I know And I've built this haven out of hollowed bones So We can look back together On all the times I've died The lives I've sacrificed For my design Welcome to my nightmare Welcome to my mind Why don't you stay the night here You never know what you might find We all live a life of war On our own I hear the voices So much louder than they were before Feels like I'm drowning Still I'll count the times I've washed ashore We all live a life of war On our own We're so much stronger Than they'd ever give us credit for Keep stacking bodies til We're side by side at heaven's door The only one that can kill me is me Well, I've tried that for centuries I sold my soul for this seed of salvation This convalescence bleeds Out the essence it breeds

Animus 04:28
Destroyer of worlds The festering plague That takes root in our hearts You bring life to death and decay Harbinger of hope Bring me to the edge For your own amusement Watch me fall to death Siren of the Sea Lead me to the deep If the waves consume me I don't want to feel anything How did it get this far Why did we let it fall apart This resentment My clarity I'm afraid I was played For a fool who dreamt too long In a world wide awake I slept while you moved on So on and on this story goes Of the rage I’ll feel in my repose Animus I'll black the sky In my revenge You'll find no solace In these words my friend I'll sing my story From atop these long dead Gods And I'll be sure that your star Will be the first to fall How did it get this far Why did we let it fall apart This resentment My clarity I'm afraid I was played For a fool who dreamt too long In a world wide awake I slept while you moved on So I'll hold on to reveries Lost in the dark Before you showed me your heart Had no room For anyone but you You leave scorched Earth With your footprints in the sand I’ll bring annihilation Once you’ve forced my hand This is my My lullaby That I confide In lives Whose hearts were ripped out of their chest

Vulture 03:25
We'll call you a vulture A bird of pretend Show your neck devoid of feathers And a heart that never lived Waiting for the sick to fall to helplessness The little lonely profiteer Who thought himself a predator Who lost himself to fear We know you’ll never change So I guess it's all on me Cause we know you'll never change And we know you'll always say That I'm the one to blame Disgrace my name My name And I may not walk on water But at least I have my honor You dream of a life you’ll never know What it's like to love What it's like to have a home So I guess it's all on me Cause we know you'll never change And we know you’ll always say That I'm the one to blame Disgrace my name We'll see We'll see this We'll see this through So I guess it's all on me Cause we know you'll never change And we know you’ll always say That I'm the one to blame Disgrace my name For fate forsakes the fallen For fate For fate forsakes the fallen ones For fate

Miasma 04:36
I can't take it I can't- Make it go away I can't take it I can't- Get out of my head Just show me a world where We can pretend we're the chosen ones Now know me a moment Just let me repent for the things I've done I can't shake it I can't I can't take this Get out of my head I'm done lying, done believing The moments I've left are fleeting The sun is crying, the moon is weeping I know this God, but She's sleeping Somebody wake her up Before the whole world falls to dust I need answers, love I'm in my head, again I've made me, I'm made of Stories I've written out of what I wanted, I needed Affirmation from hearts I'll never k(no)w Words make me, I'll break me down To a shell of what I was I'm done lying, done believing The moments I've left are fleeting The sun is crying, the moon is weeping I know this God, but she's sleeping Somebody wake her up Before the whole world falls to dust I'm in my head, again This echo chamber Well, it's fallen out of favor And the masquerade It's all in flames I always choke on the smoke Of my negativity A burden built for my Self by society A synthetic song of self-loathing For all of us to hear Their words carry empty weight Bringing only bricks to build A narcissistic monument To mass produce our guilt I just want this all to end This endless war within I'm done lying, done believing the moments I've left are fleeting The sun is crying, the moon is weeping I know this God, but She's sleeping Somebody wake her up Before the whole world falls to dust I need answers, love I'm in my head, again

Misery 02:38
I've witnessed the wavering Wailing of death And I long for the time Where her palms meet my chest This isn't life Not what I wanted it to be My misery Just needs some company Somebody save me Save me from This nightmare I've become Unrelenting With the burdens I've placed within So unforgiving Of the hopes burning under my skin Until death does depart I'll hold on to hope That one day all your voices Will call back my tropes All I have to live for Is to find my heart a home Where my mind can't Undermine the coal That fuels the fire that burns in me ‘Cause I've witnessed the wavering Wailing of death I long for the time Where her palms meet my chest This isn't life Not what I wanted it to be My misery Just needs some company

Vectors 03:34
I've felt time Slip through my hands I want you to understand There's nothing here for you In these shifting sands Take your stand I know you want something real In a world made for manufactured Exaggerated obsolescent vectors I can feel it I can feel this I can feel it in my blood It doesn't have to be like this No, it just can't stay like this You lived a life led by fear The spirit disease that you've conceived That feeds on insecurities You never thought would find you here Alone in your refuge, but it feels so alive In your deluge of lamentation Their lies hide behind universal truths And against this world What could you do What could we hope to do Can we see through the Ghosts of our reflection Maybe we Maybe we could believe in something What could we hope to do Can we see through the Ghosts of our reflection Make us whole again Could we make us whole again We created a host For the human condition Injected her blood with An abject existence We created a host For the human condition A network of lies Vying for our attention What could we hope to do Can we see through the Ghosts of our reflection Maybe we Maybe we could believe in something What could we hope to do Can we see through the Ghosts of our reflection Make us whole again Could we make us whole again

Anima 03:36
Of all the things to believe Why believe in me You know You're wasting your time Trying to see What you’ve already seen Now I know I'm not cut out for this Not just trying to live for me but Just trying to live I'm just trying to live So, I locked myself in this Ivory tower Reliving the mistakes I've made Hour by hour Hour by miserable hour My ghosts That I composed in time Realized they could feel alive If they'd just lie their heads Upon my breast To hear the heart quivering in my chest I really need to get this out of my head But you're not listening I said I need to get this out of my head But you're not listening I thought maybe I could get this out of my head But you're not listening I've seen how this ends I've felt fire in rain They say to choose life Instead I chose pain (In the rain I feel alive) We live out of our lives Chasing the stars This is what happens When the sky departs I wanted to change I wanted to change I wanted to change I wanted to change I leave you my memories To hang on the wall To my friends and my family It's not your fault I wanted to change I wanted to change I wanted to change But I chose pain I wanted to stay We live in the moment But the moments they fade And as time goes on I know I'll be erased I wanted to change I wanted to change I wanted to stay I'll write the words you speak For the whole world to hear It's nights like tonight I wish you were here If only I had listened You'd be here today I could have been the change I could have been the change

about

Our Sorrows Florida

The Florida-based metalcore four-piece Our-Sorrows debuted in July of 2019. Described as reminiscent of the genre in the early 2000s, their modern portrayal of the style brings a cohesive mix of both eras to the forefront. The balance of powerful and impassioned vocals deliver an emotionally charged message on every groove-oriented track, supplemented with unrelenting pace and crushing tones. ... more
