Written by: Issac Dearing
Naked and Bound
Against the wall.
Reality unfound,
Depression I fall.
My body cold,
Insides ache.
Life becomes old,
My soul unawake.
My knees buried in my chest.
I pray out loud,
"Lord do your best
To rid this dark cloud!"
Devil in my hand.
S - A - T - A - N
You're buried beneath the land,
Dirt is your friend.
Devil in my mind.
Evil's made me blind.
A place where worms will dine.
Your body no one will find.
Naked and Bound,
Feet cold on dirt floor.
Heart silent, no sound,
From my wrist pain pours.
Tears mixed in blood
Tattoo the earth
With a colorful mud
From a life of hurt.
Shame from a hole,
Caused from being alone
Has formed my soul.
Where did I go wrong?
Devil in my hand.
S - A - T - A - N
Your buried beneath the land.
Dirt is your friend.
Devil in my mind.
Evil's made me blind.
A place where worms will dine.
Your body no one will find!

You want us to sustain our immediate focus
I'm living a dream and a lie
But feelings aren't only things that we built here
I'm a part of the sky
And you might feel important just don't disown this
You can get just as high
(CHORUS)
Like a slipknot
Strangles your thoughts
Bloodied teardrops
Stain what's unsought
This can't be stopped
Like blood it clots
Heals all distraught
But you forgot.
Bloated with rot
Your faith still sought
Demons will taunt
Your inner thoughts
This can't be stopped
Like blood it clots
Heals all distraught
But you forgot.
No….Spite….Ig….nite….In….cite….Don't….Fight….Dis….pite….The….Plight….
That's implied.
So smother your thoughts, and consume your responses
And face the fear of your life
We'll embrace out deaths, and live among saints
And continue this citcular motion that
Drives
Our thoughts, our feelings, our dreams, and our focus
I'm cutting my wrists cause it's divine
(CHORUS)
I'm touching the heavens, and feeling frustration
So close to a spiritual high
No mourning for the fallen or our forsaken
Their deaths were as common as life
And we'll all live forever in the memories of family
I'm immortal and will never die.
(CHORUS)

Till Death”
Your touch so infectious.
A stare so contagious.
An allure weakens my spine.
It’s burnt in my mind.
I need you in my veins,
It kills all of my pains.
(Chorus)
I don’t want this feeling to ever end.
I never want to be broken again.
Your scent will be my last breath.
Till Death.
A necessary sickness,
My body’s so anxious.
I’ll drown without a fix,
That your devotion can only inflict.
(Chorus)
I don’t want this feeling to ever end.
I never want to be broken again.
Your scent will be my last breath.
Without you I’m damaged,
With a mind so ravaged.
To taste you on my tongue,
Collapses these weakened lungs.
(Chorus)
I don’t want this feeling to ever end.
I never want to be broken again.
Your scent will be my last breath.
Side by side Till Death,
Side by side Till Death,
Side by side Till Death.

Twelve Gates - Demented

(Whisper)
Festering like a cyst. A puppet in your lap.
The truth still exists. You used me for a laugh.
I can't untwist, Unforgettable past.
What has caused this. This constant relapse.
My mind's a deathtrap.
That's going to collapse
Unforgettable past.
This constant relapse.
Suffication………Aggravation………Seperation……….
Humiliation!
Look what I've become.
All the things I've done.
Stability you stole.
My mind's out of control!
A wall you rose, a pain you drove.
My hate still grows, my shame still flows.
You tried to blame, all of you pain.
My life you gave, and could not trade.
Each punch – Each hit.
Your words – No guilt.
You could - Not quit.
Till blood – Was spilt.
(Whisper)
Scars on my wrists.
You can't dismiss.
What has caused this.
Addictions……..
Contradictions…………Affliction………..
Imperfection!
Look what you've done.
The hate from your tongue.
So demeaning, so cold.
Makes me want to explode!
A lifeless soul, A truth untold.
My mind has gone, out of control.
Try and pretend, the facts won't bend.
I can't forgive, all that you did.
Each punch – Each hit.
Your words – No guilt.
You could – not quit.
Till blood – was spilt.
