Empty words spoke from my family to me
Bound by chains, it burns the fire in me
I won't let these vices take hold
I won't let them consume me
Vices become me
You're no better than me
You're rich and filthy
You fill your pockets with gold
No satisfaction from the words that I speak
So much I've dealt with, now the reaper comes my way
Keep my head up but the rain gets me anyways
My life's a maze, and I'm stumbling towards an end
Shadows in the back of my mind won't let me sleep
This life of misery I’ve led eats away at me (Eats away at me)
These vices brought by birth live burden and dirt, I fought for where I am
Overcome with lessons learned, shadows won't let me sleep, I'll put a gun to my head
No satisfaction from the words that I speak
So much I've dealt with, now the reaper comes my way
Keep my head up but the rain gets me anyways
My life is a maze

Symphonic stuff in metal doesn’t make its way into my collection aside from a couple of early Cradle albums. The orch here though just ads to how huge this band sounds. It makes elements in the songs more immersive. There are plenty of breaks from orchestration where its in deathcore/slamming brutality mode. While not ignorant, the songs never play with time or get mathy making it accessible and memorable. Came out 2015? Impressed. Mitch Mitcherson

Excellent tech death from Canada. Consistently good throughout the album, with strong riffing and musician-ship. Listening to the whole album in one go, I find myself lost in the melodies and it is all over much too soon.
