lyrics

You're keeping secrets
How convenient
Well my hearts gone numb
There's no starting this up again
Looking outside has never brought Such a heavy burden
It weighs me down like the black soul
That's rotten inside of me
This dead weight's suffocating me
This burning hate inside my brain

Has never
Been let out

It's fierce and dark
With nothing to control it
The devil sings
To me while I lay silent
Hoping for this hell to end at any moment
It's like time is moving in slow motion
It's fierce and dark
But I'm learning to control it
The devil sings
But I refuse to hear it
Knowing that this hell will end at any moment
Frame by frame
I have my eyes wide open

My grave and all it's entirety
Is everything I'll ever be
A walking theif
I wouldn't trust me
I'm everything you shouldn't be

I blame myself
I was selfish and lost
After everything you given me
I was still too busy
Blinding myself to the reality
Living in the fantasy

I couldn't stand to see you like that
I'd hide it in the back of my mind
Hoping I wouldn't find it
I never buried it deep enough
It would always surface
It chews up my heart
And spits it out
Like it wasn't worth the flavor

I'm sorry I wasn't there for you
Like you were there for me
I'm sorry I didn't care for you
Like you would've cared for me

Cult leader has been an underrated great band. Heavy, intelligent. I saw them a couple times including this past year. Would hope they tour in 2024. Son Nguyen

The Deal
by SUMAC

supported by 62 fans who also own “Adversary”

An absolutely pummeling assault of thick sludgy riffs, guttural rumbles, and tribal drums. Listening to this album is like being slowly buried by an avalanche. Practically makes Isis sound like Top 40 pop music by comparison. mattgraupman
