lyrics
It would seem so simple a task
To rob me of my future present and past
Now look at me as your fate becomes clearer
Count your blessings while you can because the curtain draws nearer
This never started with me giving a fuck
The countless times I’ve caught you running your mouth
Your hubris ends with me my friend, I am the cancer of men
The tooth in the yard, one for all
The war that keeps losing while the dead are rising
We’re not trying hard, all for nothing
You’re falling apart and the cracks are showing
Fall to your knees
In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king
The tooth in the yard, one for all
The war that keeps losing while the dead are rising
We’re not trying hard, all for nothing
You’re falling apart and the cracks are showing
One up on me, even handicapped you couldn’t bring defeat
Conspiracy, truthfully you had more chance of parting the sea
Oh woe is me, here’s a lesson in humility
Forsake the need you better kill your darlings cause they’re serving me
Fall to your knees
In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king
History repeats itself again
These minor transgressions, won’t matter in the end
First sign of weakness is dripping everywhere
Slipping under the cover’s, thought you had us panicking
No mercy will be shown to the ones that forced my hand
Too little too late you dumb fuck
What the fuck did you think you motherfucker
Rest in pain
Samson brought to his knees, now turns to grieve
Deceived by years of fallacy
Rising amongst debris, the dirt that lies beneath
Besieged it came apart so readily
Skull fucked and left to bleed
In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king
To rob me of my future present and past
Now look at me as your fate becomes clearer
Count your blessings while you can because the curtain draws nearer
This never started with me giving a fuck
The countless times I’ve caught you running your mouth
Your hubris ends with me my friend, I am the cancer of men
The tooth in the yard, one for all
The war that keeps losing while the dead are rising
We’re not trying hard, all for nothing
You’re falling apart and the cracks are showing
Fall to your knees
In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king
The tooth in the yard, one for all
The war that keeps losing while the dead are rising
We’re not trying hard, all for nothing
You’re falling apart and the cracks are showing
One up on me, even handicapped you couldn’t bring defeat
Conspiracy, truthfully you had more chance of parting the sea
Oh woe is me, here’s a lesson in humility
Forsake the need you better kill your darlings cause they’re serving me
Fall to your knees
In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king
History repeats itself again
These minor transgressions, won’t matter in the end
First sign of weakness is dripping everywhere
Slipping under the cover’s, thought you had us panicking
No mercy will be shown to the ones that forced my hand
Too little too late you dumb fuck
What the fuck did you think you motherfucker
Rest in pain
Samson brought to his knees, now turns to grieve
Deceived by years of fallacy
Rising amongst debris, the dirt that lies beneath
Besieged it came apart so readily
Skull fucked and left to bleed
In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album.

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians!
