Torment and anguish be my name
Catatonic, ambling blindly through these days
Passive and petulant
Any grand purpose obscured by this haze
How I pine as I long for nightfall where I might transform
To the ethereal infinite, nocturnally reborn
This dream world so much more real than any life I could ever lead
In dying dreams of sirens I wait with bated breath
Awakened by the sun I rise and curse the day again
Each torturous day calamity, my trials know no end
Obsession be the wellspring of this madness that I feel
Lucid unreality, mock visions seem so real
Are these dreams or prophecies?
Each day growing more unbearable
Each nocturnal retreat more serene
I come to terms with a grisly truth
Morbid fixation, I've come here to die
This mortal coil too strong to deny
It's in me
Loving death embraces me
Offering relief
The Moon’s reflection tainted red
As this blade is drawn upon my flesh
My final thoughts as my pulse weakens:
"Have made a mistake?"
Slowly bleeding out
Apprehensive yet content
Upon this blood soaked soil finally I lay at peace
Dutifully departed, at home with the deceased
Time passes until nothing is left
Another unmarked grave, another claimed by death
I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive
My first exposure to Inferi was seeing them live with Shadows of Intent. They were supporting this album.
Unbelievably awesome live show and the greatest possible way to discover this amazing band.
Love everything they produce. Obstacle of Affliction
Serious aficionado level Prog/Tech Death.
The unique colors they bring to this record are not really heard elsewhere. They have forged their own sound and it’s totally badass. I guess The Faceless could be mentioned for reference of similar styles/tones.
They care for the song craft as much as the tasty Tech and Leads. It really is like everyone is saying....a perfect Metal experience. Salami Dick Death
A beautiful journey from start to finish, with perfectly placed moments of gentility amidst the rhythmic intrigue and blast beats of their guest drummer. jsteadmanfan
