lyrics

Why did
You shun the truth when
You had the privilege
You had the vision

You held the constant
We see you numbers
The deceptive nature
The corrupted stranger

The idle prisoner
An empty battle
Zero sum vessel
A sacred bondage

Material witness
Implicit liar
Tali barut bangsat
Look around
Can't you see
You're letting malversation breathe
Take the knife, one last strife
The Price of Getting out
Alive
Judas! A kiss of betrayal
You liar! You let me down this path
I can't believe I put my trust in parts unknown
I could've sworn you're not the killing kind
Pandemic of your lies, your words they nauseate me

Anchor, straining
This weight, the pull, the iron grating
You let them poison your mind
A venom injection
This mass concise, they start to sink aground
Disappointing
Your mask, the knife, an active binding
Blind eyes, burnt breath
Six guns holding your hands



Knife in me
Covenant of deceit and lies
Knife in me
Assurance, you means nothing
Stabbed black clay
In the back, your knives dug in
Landscapes of mistrusts
Recognize how my wounds materialised
Materialised
Betrayals are the entanglements of promises
Now tell me
Why did
You shun the truth when
You had the privilege
You had the vision

You held the constant
We see you numbers
The deceptive nature
The corrupted stranger

The idle prisoner
An empty battle
Zero sum vessel
A sacred bondage

Material witness
Implicit liar

Tali barut bangsat


Look at me
Can’t you fucking see?
You Goddamn liar
Look at me
Can’t you fucking see?
You Goddamn liar
Look at me
Can’t you fucking see?
You Goddamn liar



Eh kau memang sial lah
Memang bangsat penipu
Kawan macam kau memang boleh pergi mampus
Babi Kau tipu aku, kau ingat kau boleh lepas ke?
Kau dengar tak?
I will break you

Knife in me
Covenant of deceit and lies
Knife in me
Assurance, you means nothing
Stabbed black clay
In the back, your knives dug in
Landscapes of mistrusts
Recognize how my wounds materialised


Feed me lies
One last time

Knife in me, treachery
Stabbed and bleed, they beseeched
Knife in me
Assurance means nothing
Stabbed and bleed
Covenant of deceit
Landscapes of mistrusts
Recognize how my wounds materialised

Why did
You shun the truth when
You had the privilege
You had the vision
You held the constant

We see you numbers
The deceptive nature
The corrupted stranger

The idle prisoner
An empty battle
Zero sum vessel
A sacred bondage
Material witness

Implicit liar
I can't believe I put my trust in parts unknown
I could've sworn you're not the killing kind
Pandemic of your lies, your words they nauseate me
Anchor, straining
This weight, the pull, the iron grating
You let them poison your mind

A venom injection
This mass concise, they start to sink aground
The road to isolation is the lesser path of least resistance

about

Mothflesh Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Inspired by the state of culture and technology Machine Eater is a dystopian love letter written to the modern metal listeners who are exhausted by the sterile, neon-gated vista of the perceived future.

Mothflesh's interpretation of the state of aggressive music is a battery-powered monolith built upon the bedrock of Death Metal and propelled with the artery pumping
surge of Modern Hardcore.
