lyrics

I am Skyfather, bringer of sorrow
Bow down, my child
This is the end of time

These glass boats of transparent planks
Weather the waves through seas of divinity
Our spirit weakens as the vessel breaks
Please Skyfather, cleanse these sins
We have stabbed the eyes of the blind
Whispered to ears of the deaf
We tempted the poor for spiritual allegiance
Sinking deeper into fathomless guilt

Sailing
From distant shores
Anchoring
Down sacred grounds

Make you see
Child hear me
Salvation is easy
It's a pity
Make you see
Child hear me
Salvation is easy
Mortals sailing free

Committing heresy of the highest order
Hiding behind a veil of fear
Gifted with diamond sands
A purpose hidden
Lost are the innocent
What was once a burning light
Now a foul excuse to fight
Smothering darkness consumed our might
Borne of endless beckoning night
Your depiction is poetry in motion
This ignition
Sparks with a filthy chaos machine

Torturing death
Heads disintegrating
Flesh are seared by chemical waste
Ripping hearts with iron blades
The end of days, Skyfather said

Make you see
Child hear me
Your salvation is easy
It's a pity
Make you see
Child hear me
Salvation is easy
Mortals sailing free

This hurt
And this suffering

Mother Earth drawing blood
Drowning the masses to please the Lord
Dead seeds planted
Giving birth to destruction

Skyfather
It burns

We are
Sinners

Skyfather
It burns

We are
Sinners

Skyfather
It burns

Skyfather
For you we bleed

Skyfather

Skyfather
Skyfather

Save us
From you

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. ... more
