Lyrics to the demo

Here are the lyrics to the 3 songs on our demo. Since we probably wont put it out in a physical release form, being that they are all going on the record anyways and all, I figured I would post them here.

BITTEN TONGUES
Staring at this collapsing roof
as the lies pass thru the inconvenience of truth
I built this house just to burn it all down
and scratch my head when everybody runs out.

Spitting blood from bitten tongues
I'm frozen cold in the rays of the sun.
Wish I could yell, but I'd only silence myself.
Silence myself.

I've killed days thinking and I've spent time digging.
Casting stones at these bones, my mind is in parts far from home.

Spitting blood from bitten tongues
I'm frozen cold in the rays of the sun.
Wish I could yell, but I'd only silence myself.
Silence myself.

HARD LANDING
God damn what've I gotten myself in?
Fine lines are wearing so thin.
Nobody is the same anymore and everyone is out now to settle a score
Faceless, Shape shift.

The waters rising as the flames are jumping higher
Everyone sports a knife in the back or the face of a liar.

Faceless, Shape shift.
I guess I'm just coming to grips.
Faceless, shape shift
I guess I'm just coming to grips.

No faith in faith, No faith in your leaders
No faith in your lovers, when they're all god damn cheaters.

Faithless, Faceless. Faithless, Shape shift.

HIGH & MIGHTY
Put yourself at the top of a mountain
the higher you thought the higher you got.
Cycles spinning again and again
the distance grows between stranger and friend.
Lonely hopping pedestals but sometimes life ain't that beautiful.
You run real fast but you never learned to crawl
you built yourself up but never braced for a fall
now its you and nothing at all.

You got your letter but you burned upon delivery.
Now all you scream is deliver me, please deliver me.

Bury yourself in ashes, from all the bridges you burned.
Burn on, burn on, burn on.

Our Story So Far.

Its about a year ago this month that we first started practicing. Time flies. In this time, we've played some shows here and there. Probably less than we would've liked to but we are working on that. We also picked up Mr John Fleuti on 2nd guitar and he's been making noise with us since spring of this year. Also, we got our finished demo back a few days ago and just in time too, as we start recording a full length in a week. We are all pretty pumped on the idea of laying these songs down. Not sure how it will ultimately be put out but putting it to tape is the first plan for right now. It will be 10 or 11 songs and that includes the 3 that our on the demo. We are still new and it will be cool to have a complete offering of songs so people can make up their own mind as far if they like it, dont like it, what we sound like,etc. We are not claiming to be ground breaking or anything and I could draw out a list of influences and such, but if you take the time to listen or see us at a show you'll get it or you wont. So, hopefully you like it but if not, thats cool too. You either like some bands or you don't, thats how it goes. At the risk of sounding selfish, I am just excited to get these songs recorded and have them for myself.So, thats our brief story so far. Looking forward to what may lie ahead.
