The Carcass King

(album: The Seventh Sun - 2023)

I knew that I wanted to, but I'd rather forget than bury you
Six straight days in these walls, I swear I could see straight through

White noise it's drowning
My throat is burning
Tired of feeling the guilt
From this mind I don't own

Takes no courage
Cast the stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony

What we unearth is
A truth we keep burying

They call me the carcass king
I relish in death and the pain it brings
Give me the nails to hammer in me
Or tear out my heart to stem the disease

I confide in the darkness as
As if it's my witness
Falling to sickness
Violently slipping from my existence

Takes no courage
Cast the stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony

What we unearth is
A truth we keep burying
The Carcass King
God of Nothing

White noise it's drowning
My throat is burning
Tired of feeling the guilt
From this mind I don't own

Takes no courage
Cast the stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony

What we unearth is
Not the life we crave
Fear resurfaced
We must comply, obey

Look for purpose
A way to keep the wolves at bay

The Carcass King
God of Nothing

Takes no courage
Cast that stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony

Takes no courage
Cast that stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony

Takes no courage
Cast that stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony
