Disaster Is Your Mistress

about

This is the title track of our soon-to-be-released album.

lyrics

Apocalypse, unveiling
This Judgment isn’t last
The pattern shows you failing
But that’s all in the past
This time it will be different
History closed its door
the future you can reinvent much brighter than before

nightmares that you dispossessed
inside your chest they pound
let them take their final breaths and
bury them in the ground

Serenity may be your spouse
She is your pride and bliss
Lives in one room of your house
But disaster is your mistress

walk across this pathless land
And be the missing part
Take the steps to cleave together
Your divided heart

Tempted by oblivion
Her ample curves beguile
Awakened to the four horsemen
your nation’s rank and file

Here in this suspended state
Not sure what we will find
The burning question that remains
Will we be left behind
Left behind
