Paranoia swells gruesomely upon such fragility,
Ever-present doubt bares down;
A physical manifestation of sheer weight,
On my regressing shoulders.
No, I am the first of the free,
Superior; only my eyes can truly see.
I require not the support of others,
Only the strength of my own shadow.
To trust in others is suicidal,
The greed of man; unquenchable.
Leaving partners to decay and die;
Brothers butchered in the name of profit.
Morality is propaganda fed to us by the above,
To control the minds of the free,
But I will not become the modern casualty,
You will not take the last of me.
I see intent within their eyes,
At the slightest sign of weakness.
They will rape all that I am.
They will not take what's in these hands.
You will not take the last of me.
Morality is propaganda fed to us by the above,
To control the minds of the free,
But I will not become the modern casualty,
You will not take the last of me.
No, I am the first of the free,
Superior; only my eyes can truly see.
I require not the support of others,
Only the strength of my own shadow.
For putting faith in the weak of this world,
Can only result in my own end.
I feel your greed; I won't let you destroy me;
You will not take the last of me.

Been listening to this since 2013. Eventually tried to track down a CD but now I'm starting to go digital. So, has 7 years of listening to this EP dulled the experience? Not even slightly. Amazing work. From Nathan's ghost beats on the snare, polyrhythmic measures and insane kick pedal work, Eric's unique tone on vocals and both Aaron and Josh's melodies and interesting structures. Just hope they get the chance to tour England soon. JAY DYER
