Destructive Compulsion

There is a feeling
That's always there
Scraping and growling
At the back of my mind
Sometimes it breaks through
And enters my soul
I don't fight it
Because I want this to happen
So I accept its desire
Driving through me like nails
Its teeth hold tight
And I gaze through its eyes
The feeling is like fire
Burning up my spine
An inferno entering my brain
I succumb to selfish ways
Demons in my mind
Devils in my heart
And I am their master
I am their master
Agony in my soul
Misery in my guts
And I am their lord
Yes I am their god
Again I walk this path
Sometimes on purpose
It's the road to harm
Only ghosts out here
This can be poetry
Bleak in its ways
Ink upon the page
Blood outside the veins
So I accept my desire
And hammer down the nails
My teeth hold tight
As the demons now sigh
The fire brings feelings
Locked deep inside
Gates now open
I succumb to my rage
Demons in my mind
Devils in my heart
And I am their master
I am their master
Agony in my soul
Misery in my guts
And I am their lord
Yes I am their god

The Dream is Dead
04:40

Sometimes I have a dream
Where the demons are dead
And other times, it's a nightmare
Where angels tread
Three-thousand two-hundred eighty-five
And countless tears
The dream slowly dies
Across the years
And I cannot believe it
When the black sky is lit
I reach out for another
Die again for a lover
It always goes this way
Won't ever be the same
Be aware I blame my schemes
Done with all these fucking dreams
The dream is dead
Born abomination
The dream is dead
Wretched ugly thing
Where angels fear to tread
Buried in a shallow grave
The dream is dead
Never to rise again
Sometimes I feel strong
The world is in my hands
I know just what to do
Everything goes to plan
But those feelings never last
The truth squirms into view
Every word is for naught
Regardless of what I do
And I cannot believe it
When the black sky is lit
I reach out for another
Die again for a lover
It always goes this way
Won't ever be the same
Be aware I blame my schemes
Done with all these fucking dreams
The dream is dead
Born abomination
The dream is dead
Wretched ugly thing
Where angels fear to tread
Buried in a shallow grave
The dream is dead
Never to rise again

Taunting Laughter

A squirming pack of insidious worms
Clustered tight around my soul
Sucking hard on my raw flesh
And drinking from my fractured mind
Clotted with oozing slime and filth
Digging deep to feed on the fragments
Itching and burning as their tongues lash hot
Blood and tears feed the maggot horde
Cannot escape this
Ensnared by the sound
Trapped within myself
As it echoes around
I did my best - It wasn't enough
I tried my hardest - It wasn't enough
I screamed my throat raw - It wasn't good enough
I bewailed my fall - I bewailed my fall
My mind falls apart - Never enough
My heart won't restart - Never enough
My soul crushed by dread - Never good enough
My world lays dead - My world lays dead
The twisting larvae gorge and swell
Growing fat on the pain and smell
Rows of teeth serrate my skin
Drinking deep the red within
They crust in groups round my eyes
Sucking deep the tears I cry
Soon to be a feast for the flies
I shriek to the heavens to die
Cannot escape this
Ensnared by the sound
Trapped within myself
As it echoes around
I did my best - It wasn't enough
I tried my hardest - It wasn't enough
I screamed my throat raw - It wasn't good enough
I bewailed my fall - I bewailed my fall
My mind falls apart - Never enough
My heart won't restart - Never enough
My soul crushed by dread - Never good enough
My world lays dead - My world lays dead

Deception Through Your Lies
by Womb
supported by 5 fans who also own “The Dream is Dead”
Presque totalement converti au black, au death et au funeral (ô Bandcamp qu'as-tu fait de moi ?), je peux désormais mieux apprécier cet album. La force de ces morceaux est peut-être à chercher dans leur durée, qui est assez courte somme toute pour le genre. Cela permet à Womb de concentrer leurs effets sans se disperser ni se répéter - ni créer d'ennui.

Le chien est le meilleur ami de l'homme mais le cheval occupe notre pensée et on le voit partout : sa seule présence suscite l'émoi, on l'imagine apporter les éclairs pour Zeus et on a donné son nom à des animaux qui peuplent les rivières et les mers. Il est aussi au centre de Sin4tr4, premier album d'Australasia. Le blackgaze instrumental n'y est pas que contemplatif : les riffs black metal nous font voyager à grand galop sur tous les continents. C'est rafraîchissant et on s'y sent libre !
