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)
