let me put you out of your misery to cleanse the earth of your ilk bloody animal in the mud you imitation of life these rituals idolized enough with your presence sovereign swine bask in the light of vindication sever the liars tongue and watch his lies bleed your agony is nourishment you Vile wretched thing the sublime dance of tattered limbs left to rot in a nameless crypt let me put you out of your misery to cleanse the earth of your ilk your broken limbs are the sweetest sight to starving eyes and these lies the purest of violence vellicating flashes of retribution
2.
television waves emitting signal intrusions exploiting vulnerabilities programing discord a war of words mis-information un consented solicitation and now I see it in your eyes force fed bullshit lies victims of indoctrination fear what they can not understand one nation under god united in hatred it’s the evil in your eyes and all the bullshit lies why am I not surprised why am I not surprised another rush another high another reason to fucking die immerse your heart immerse your heart with hate

a declarative hymn of limitless destruction orchestrated just for you just for you you spineless scum he who stands against me is my enemy and shall meet the fate of many before we will clear the earth of those the wolves are out searching for the weak and they will want you as wanting is their will hell resides in the heart of man in this fine night they write the message in blood a lazarus syndrome supplied by this newfound homicidal gluttony in the chaos of rampant scarcity your destined for failure the reality broken the veil is shattered declarative hymn of limitless destruction orchestrated just for you he who stands against me is my enemy

murderous intent brought to a boil hear that sound? its the bell that tolls for the cowards a slow death calling your name through noise the drums of pain pulsating with each step you wretched excuse pathetic bastard spawn let's go mother fucker hyper vigilance pick a side stop riding the fence the sound of agony wails from your mouth the sound of agony wails from your mouth the final wave of strangulation passes out your wretched soul bask on the light of obliteration the only peace that will ever be met is when your last last exhalation of breath whimpers out your cowardly lungs

Demoralizer 02:58
noooooo end in sight let go of the good inside of you embrace the evil within our mankind has sealed it’s fate missiles rain down and desecrate an entire race delusional superiority gifted from a deity a visceral experience the longer indulged the further embraced cause in this world we perceive reality deceiving in design damned no empathy mindless vessels abhorrent creations one psychopath after the next instilled with wrath bestowed by the divine seeking, answers from a higher power to explain this hell holding on to faith may you find peace as we bid you farewell the wickedness of all mankind is the answer to this place uninhabitable the air, saturated with noxious fumes the bodies are left to rot our souls are fucking lost demoralized all hope is lost scarring of the lungs while the flesh started to melt images of bodies were torn in half

i've done my time dealing with the infected feeling so rejected living in a nightmare it feels like eternity no escaping this reality no where to turn no way out my only company is misery everyone dies here there is no fucking escape this is our only fate facing eternal hate which god will deliver you from evil blind faith is to blame for this torture Enough’s enough dispensable innocence watching this is tough living in a delusional society only for a temporary existenceeeeeee

about

Since our self-titled EP in 2016, we’ve pushed deeper into darker territory with each release. Our previous full-length Exuviae has grown to over 6 million streams across 8 tracks, marking a major turning point for us. Conduct of Flies continues that evolution, fusing aggression with the industrial intensity inspired by Mick Gordon’s DOOM soundtrack. It’s the sound of metamorphosis realized, the swarm that follows the shedding.
