  • I was told to love you, I was told to try

    I was born to save you, I was born to die

    I'll always be your scapegoat, you'll never take the blame

    I never had a chance, it was your soul to save

    I am your endless nightmare, the pain is all you see

    My blood is on your hands, I hope you're proud of me

    I was told to love you, I learned how to hate

    I was born to save you, Your choice became your fate

    You can't take care of yourself

    How could you care for me?

    Am I retribution? When is my soul free?

    I never asked for mercy You told me to forgive

    The blood is on your hands

    I hope your proud of me and what you’ve done to set me free

    I can barely hold myself

    Fascination, stimulation, stronger as I learn

    By his hands, I understand, I was told to burn

    Bastard son, your saving grace

    Left alone I found my place

    I find love in what I steal

    You should of let me rest in Potters Field

    I was told to… I was told to...

    Your beliefs turned me into this

    Bite the hand that feeds, you’re so selfish

    Thank you mother for giving me this life

    I'll bring down the rapture

    Then we'll see who lies

  • Haha!

    As I wake up from this dream I made up

    No! I guess this is reality…

    What will change us or will we mess up

    The only chance to connect with a dream..

    Say a prayer for me!

    I'm buried by the sound…

    In a world of human wreckage…

    Well I'm lost and I'm found and I can't touch the ground

    I'm plowed into the sound

    To see wide open with a head that's broken

    Hang a life on a tragedy…

    Plow me under the ground that covers

    The message that is the seed

    As I wake up, from this dream I made up?

    Now I know it's reality…

  • I know your life is empty and you hate to face this world alone

    So you're searching for an angel someone who can make you whole

    I can not save you

    I can't even save myself

    So just save yourself!

    I know that you've been damaged, your soul has suffered such abuse

    But I am not your savior, I’m more fucked up than you

    Please don't take pity on me…

    My life, an endless nightmare, my souls fractured to the bone

    If I must be lonely, I think I'd rather be alone

    You can not save me

    You can't even save yourself

  • I am the shadow that creeps behind

    You are the darkness inside my mind

    Society infected, consuming all open wide

    As your game of telephone plays

    contorted words devolve down the line

    Pillars of stone that once stood so tall

    Dismantled, broken down to the core

    Chaos transfixing, empyrean down into the void

    Vengeance released unto me

    I, an innocent, condemned to death for existing

    Now many more will have to die (I’ll find my way back)

    Adhering to the lies your cult conceives (I’ll claw my way back)

    False gods and greed…We are all killers, lying in wait (I’ll make you pay)

    You’ve already made up your mind

    it’s just a matter of time before you take another life…

  • Alone against the world, twist a reckless life

    Straight into the heart of the ripper

    Trick of treat my mind to a rebel ride

    Shadowing, I move like a monster

    Creature of the wheel, trigger wicked way

    Tangle like a web beneath me

    Ankle-deep in hell through another way

    Crucify the sky above me

    New God kill machine and man say

    “Lord of the Engines” yeah!

    Pocket full of dirt, frozen in my hands,

    Hold on to the nameless God yeah

    Breathe into the deep and dying light of day

    Overdose on bloody wings, yeah

    Splinter in the skin turn your eyes away,

    Sick and swaggering, beneath me

    Revolution mind ye of little faith

    Sharp and bloody, cutting

    My powers grow stronger

    Night after night

    Soon enough, I’ll Pierce the Veil

    With my knives

    To pierce your flesh

    Penetrate Deep within

    Your grant me full access

    Through the original sin

    Demon-paper clowns stitched across my back

    Easygoing dead black eyes

    Microscopic giants on a chicken run

    Everybody dies laughing

    Thrust into the drag on the edge and wait

    Motivate the one inside you

    Bastard kicker burn blow the ash away

    Freddy’s gonna get you!

press

“His sound, unique as Freddys’s glove, infuses rock, metal, horror metal, industrial goth and more to give you a horror-scape of sound that fans of any metal genre can appreciate.” Emma Jaye•SCREAMER MAGAZINE (U.S.)

“Through Soundwaves Vol 3” is a interesting, compelling EP. the rebirth of unhinged, cinematic electro metal (which isn’t a thing but I invented it about 15 seconds ago) starts here.” Andy Thorley•MAXIMUM VOLUME (U.K.)

“I Am The Shadow In The Darkness”, an eerie mood piece that unsettles effectively with more Mode-worship dressed up in Type O/Manson 90’s creepiness. It’s a monumental song of the record that evokes all the good stuff that horror cinema is made of... Wes Craven would be proud.” John Morrow•UBER ROCK (U.K.)

“JoeyDiabolic's "Save Yourself" is an extraordinary cover of American industrial rock band Stabbing Westward's song.” TERRA RELICTA (SLOVENIA)
