I'm hollow and so cold
So cold that
I can't feel you
Biting my lip, grinding your hip into mine
This little game that we play oh it will not last long
I can promise you this
I can't promise you much, just that some day I will let you down
And down we will go
Like a ship with no captain
A crash off of needles
The same ones we shared
On that soiled old mattress
So here we are again
That look in your eyes
In tune with parting your thighs
And the lies that we speak
It makes me weak
Knowing like I do that it's never enough
But let's just pretend
That our compass isn't broken
That we're starcrossed and we're cursed
It would hurt alot less to know that we haven't sunk that low
Like a ship with no captain
A crash off of needles
The same ones we shared
On that soiled old mattress
Laying there on my back.
Bloodied around me, with my heart in my hand.

Dark electronic music gets warped and clobbered on the latest from Author & Punisher. Brooding, cutting, and claustrophobic. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 18, 2017
Blinding, cinematic black metal with rich layers of synth make for an album sweeping in scope and punishing on impact. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 5, 2016
On the forthcoming Tombs album "All Empires Fall," the band expands their scope and range, balancing brutal riffs with melancholy melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 29, 2016
