The flagellations leave me stripped apart and well-attentive
The thought to never take advantage of unwanted privilege
Prosthetic teleprompters, gods as victims, well accosted
Morally caustic, that’s enough, too much, we’re all exhausted
The thought to never face a consequence of your offenses
While others have it that much harder from your influences
Take out your effigies and burn them all with me
So let’s have another round of applause
I’ve never been a demagogue
But you know, we’re only human beings
Ahh....
I’m just waiting for
Something to happen
Under the influencer
Under the influenza
But you know, we all have a cause
To choose our demagogues
and burn our effigies
And you’ve got mouths to feed
Take anything you want
And give them what we need
But you know, at the end of the day
I’ve never been a demagogue
I’ve never had an effigy
But you know, we’re only human beings
So take out your effigies
And burn them all with me
So let’s have another round of applause
Sacrifice your demagogues
Give the people what they need
And now you can just fade away
Just walk off the stage
Free us from your disease

Pandemic fantasy a realist’s nightmare
Filling your body with conspiracy warfare
Default to patriotic hero and victim
Where death is rhetoric and science is fiction
Death camps no matter nursing home or prison
Your lives still matter, but no bodies listen
QTubers, MAGA, incells, anti-vaxxers
Cut off their umbilical discord servers
Micro-aggressions with a macro propensity
A million deaths and slurs with varying intensity
Under the radar but overwhelmed with apathy
Their knives slowly slice open the social body
White whitewashing is violent and vindictive
Whose rights and well being are really those most afflicted?
Bigotry, chance, and stupidity given purposeful design and meaning
Do you believe in sheltered magical thinking?
The greater good for the chosen few
Just as long as you think like I do
The greater good for the chosen few
Just as long as you look like I do
You're killing the body
You're killing everybody

Every day is more or less more of the same
My convictions like a flickering flame
An inner realization that never came
A desperation that surpasses any shame
I won’t stay but I’ll remain
More or less be the same
I won’t try but I’ll refrain
It’s really all the same
So I lose myself to living in regret
And let my better inhibitions take control
With every liberation adding to the debt
That weighs so heavily upon my heart and soul
Walk away from it all
I’m in control

Merci Déhà for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients – pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this.
