about

Originally premiered during Ex Corpse's "Experimental Nite" event in April of 2021 and shared on Soundcloud sometime prior. I've been sitting on the final mix of this track for long enough. It's time people had a chance to download it.

As explained a few times up to this point, the lyrics to this track describe the jaded and resentful feeling that grows inside of a person when their life and the people around them continue to disappoint and/or cause harm to them at every turn. Each failure and offense is likened to a wound that scars over instead of healing properly, and the final state the person is left in is compared to that of a walking corpse; alive on the outside, but bereft of vitality on the inside. Needless to say, it's a very negative song.

Part of an upcoming album.

lyrics

Dusted, wasted, desiccated.
Wounds that never heal.
Trauma, hatred, devastated.
Nothing left to feel.
Empty vessel, walking faithless.
Devil's favorite toy.
One more bruise for my collection.
Damage fills the void.

Life is covered in scars.
Death is never too far.
Follow history, drown in misery, lose yourself in the body toll.
Life is covered in scars.

Dusted, wasted, desiccated.
Wounds that never heal.
Trauma, hatred, devastated.
Nothing else is real.
Bones broken, dead inside.
Life has slipped away.
No more rest for the unliving.
Loathing leads me to decay.
