lyrics

A dead consciousness with no restraint leading to a life of despair
Crying wolf for the final time
Let the wolves consume you

Crying wolf, burning every bridge you cross
Sever ties that ground you as you’re bound to your rotten roots of life
Do the insane know that they are insane?
Wallowing about in their lunacy
It is blissful ignorance or true acceptance?

Witness as no one hears your cries
Witness as no one comes to your side
Making yourself out to be everyone’s target
When you hide behind your mask, you show your true face

Break down your walls of ignorance and find your true acceptance

You’re such a coward, a washed up waste of life
Lets the wolves consume every part of you
Out of luck and out of time
Endlessly searching for yourself

Talking shit and telling lies
Pushing away the ones who cared for you
Now you’re on your knees again
Begging for your life to end

Break down your walls of ignorance and find your true acceptance

A dead consciousness with no restraint leading to a life of despair
Crying wolf for the final time
Let the wolves consume you

A dead consciousness with no restraint leading to a life of despair

Wretched Existence
by Before The Harvest

supported by 5 fans who also own “The Wolf Among Us”

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. 4 out of 5 mangled distortion pedals. King Jonas the Humble
