Autumnal Embrace What is there not to love about this album (:, the choruses are catchy, the alternating between vocal styles and grooves is reminiscent of early-mid 2000's Alternative Metal but with a refreshing approach. Favorite track: Vinegar.

[intro]
2.
So let’s pretend it’s over and left behind Into this moment of disclosed oversight We’ll race until our wings flame up into the clouds And fly until we breathe on these higher grounds Damned by our inner silent suicide The riddance of our sake Down with a weak and violent civil war The wrinkles of my age fade Set to rights… Drop dead, you’re older, face to the floor (you’re dragging me) Into a game of choice I can’t set the score (it’s puzzling me) Set to rights, mind the gap in your head And fill its blank spot with chemical desire Validate my constant pain with rules unfair to trail Life is divine, I can feel its oblique design Hope is gone now You deserve what your eyes can’t deny

WhoreMoans 04:42
Starting up my engines and I give into this trance Swallowed my entire self by the aura of your stance Host of viral trust you can not hold me down I will live to see the defilement spreading around Holding on this grudge, it’s my word against your will Hostage to your temple like a witness to your kill Shine as a bright star, wasted at dawn Wake the sun quietly Nights of the hunted, days on the run Take the fall patiently Ghost of ire let me be your enemy I relate to your idle strain Host of viral trust you can not hold me down I will live to see the defilement spreading around I cannot breathe in my own grave I cannot be your enemy
4.
Emerge & See 03:18
I’ve lost my powers, through endless hours of countless days Remember my name? We lost the same game in different ways I revolve engaged to a nameless time I am the sign that leads you I emerge and see as a ghost in fright I’ll hide in this moment with you now I’ll close my eyes and embrace the silence, for years to come Remember my face? We burned the same place and called it home It’s always the few and self-orientated pests taking turns into the play It’s the separated ways we’ve taken Always leading to the place we’ve forsaken We’re fading over time…
5.
Vinegar 04:14
Fall like an angel with flesh and bones Crawl as an infant into my throne Lock your defiance away from all Wait, rebate your angle and let me in Strange sour taste, I have sworn to this day I won’t decide it’s over, before I clean my stains Run, try to keep your pace stable, despite of all you let go I mocked your words, I laughed at your cries Instead of fighting you craved for more You’re taken for granted again and again So this is real now It’s not where you wanted to end up or start over And this is clear now Not every moment will gift you with wine and feel sober Again and again, you laughed and I cried…
6.
Bona Fides 05:32
Is it faith that you fear when you compromise? Are you cold and afraid that you can’t let go? Fate unfolds her twisted frame, draws near, calling my name I kneel before her infallible stain Morbid silhouettes of my waking hour, bleeding all I am Pilgrim of our race with a weary vision, justify my way Morbid silhouettes of my waking hour, bleeding all I am Pilgrim of our world hold this weary vision, just to find my way Is it truth that disputes your faith in whole? Does it point out who you are and what’s in store? God is sought up in the sky and Death has given me the eye I cringe when it comes to pick sides I can feel you even closer breathing down my neck Is it time for me to go? Go, get it done…
7.
Vice Samples 05:52
Blame your oversight, you let go of your own ambition Close but not quite, to bloodlines of greed and inhibition Father sell our game, the cities of termites confront demise Both and the same, there is no place today for genuine vice No matter of better, just stick to the letter Of color and fabric and binary gore Unbind the conceptions of shackle and tether In festering glory and beautiful war Bring it all down and let me breathe Stolen words out of your mouth sound wrong No wonder, the wonder of cold and of colder Monotony murders the variant spice No failure as black as the worship of order Still no place today for a genuine vice Away for too long The more I’ve seen, the less I’ve known, believe me I’m surrounded by your scent, your intent I feel empty I’m coming home But don’t wait for me, don’t wait for me Don’t wait for me, don’t fuck with me...
8.
Choreography 04:12
Years blindfolded, I stride The trip became a long shot for silence Here lies your true self-pride Quick on the steps, not sold but guided You make your moves and tear right through my skin And yet I lie still You shape the room, so beautiful within And yet I can not feel Slowly I rise and fall down The sudden feel of risk, the twist of violence You’ve turned into a pale disguise of me And yet I can not see You float in gloom and light the mood to sin And yet I can not feel Years blindfolded, I stride Slowly I rise and fall down
9.
You wasted a long way to find what’s left of you For one look across that’s just a point of view You’ve been up ahead, on your knees, on the floor again Don’t make up a lie you cannot disguise You're free to miss the damage done In present perfect, the bleeding seldom fades So will you let the vision become Pale understanding and winding bitter days? The treadmill of hope rewinds itself intoned You fell for the oldest hoax since time was known You made it on time for the moment to draw the line Don’t start up a war to settle the score You wasted a long way from where you come The treadmill of hope rewinds itself intoned
10.
Junkie Spoon 05:10
This hole feels like home You didn’t bring me here by accident or design The stain feels my own What little you don't violate, I'm left to pierce in time It takes only one to know the difference between It takes only once to show the ugliness inside Why can’t we erase ourselves and redefine? Stand still, let it all begin and lead us to the start This spoon feels so deep, We can no longer swim across the boundary line I burned up this scene The residue of ever-failing vows and all that still resides
11.
Lanthanum 05:25
And as we reach our final shed And as we leach into the treads We veil Feel the tension at my doorstep Real affection turned to warfare Pain comes to life, remember Pain comes to light Time reveals it all, the secrets brawl Waiting for the gun, the halo Time conceals it all, the secrets crawl Yearning for the gun, the halo And as we teach ourselves to scold And as we preach to ears unsold We fail Feel the tension at my doorstep Real affection turned to warfare Days come to life, remember Days come to light, forever I go back and forth into spirals unknown I need to be you, kill you, free you entirely Together we stand and divide…
12.
Dysnomia 02:21
I’ll go down when the rivers won’t flow, when the sea has run all dry I’m closing up for the final act, I’m gonna change my mind Here I come so don’t forget my name, I won’t stay long Pay respect to how I’ve taught you well, rebuilt you once more Self-restrained emotions is what I’ve become Don’t try to talk me into ways of reassuring my oblivious state I’ll go down when the sun is out cold, when affliction’s all we’ve learned I’m closing in like a fire’s thirst, I’m gonna wait my turn Here I come so don’t forget my name, I won’t last the end Pay respect to how I’ve taught you well, rebuilt you again...
