Timeless Influence Relevant Long after the first Long after the second Christ Third death sunrise Ripple Never arrives Timeless Here we are safe in Him we are Safe in here we are saved in Him we are

Scorched 07:29
Atoms of growth left from a/the previous life Head emerging from the dirt, reaching for the sun Fertilize stifle the population of mankind Cares not for that which he destroys The jungle of capsiacin revolting Survival of the fittest Man cannot remove and remain safe Fire rains down explosive Excoriate conflagrate dermis scorched By the brush of the bush The tryst of the flower Decadent luminescent Giant meteor of fruit hailing down Excoriate conflagrate dermis scorched I'm only smiling on the surface Smiling on the surface Follow me through the light Never felt this panic before It haunts me now Tastes like disappointments It swallows these shallow feelings Voices of confusion that live inside my skull I sit alone and weep for humanity No motivation left after chewing myself out/up There is much of a rind on me I want to do something to make a difference Living in this subtitle optioned reality Two broken wings of the same dead bird The black snake rises, insidious I sit alone and weep for humanity No motivation left after chewing myself out Never again

Through death, the separation of sheep and goat The pure and chosen few Hateful theory, hateful practice Totalitarian poisonous infection Overwhelm the world with death Religious final solution The end times nearing Humanity dissolving Ascension, beyond the towers Ivory and the reduction of flesh Ebony and the redacting of bone ( absorption ) Inhuman humane depredation ( absorption ) Human inhumane depredation The culling and the calling Depredation derails intent The culling and the calling Absorption is triumph versus Depredation and death The separation of sheep and goat The pure and chosen few Pride corrosive against the true condition of the heart Sin corrosive against the true condition of the heart She is bleeding the heads of man, once adorned in horn are now removed Transparent and timeless, the culling and the calling
4.
Dismembered, removed from sights, Killed like animals in our homeland, pray for us, you hear our cry Hacked to death, for the color of our skin, black magic sacrifice The cost of living, to be hunted, thought of as subhuman For lack of pigmentation, innocent people are killed By the enemy invisible, lurking constant, with a thirst For butchery, ignorance and wants of wealth This fear, this loathing, is every day Albinos hunted, limbs stripped away Isolated, during daylight kept away Locked inside, for they become prey
5.
For decades, war, before was a better life Barely able to subsist and in constant fear of rape Working just for debt, just to die, just a child This is what we/they die for, dead discarded left underground Ripe for exploitation For western goods; jewelry, electronics, make up This is life in the Congo, this is death in the cobalt mines You will never consume our souls Your home sits on a concrete foundation Made from the dust of our bones Dine on our young, drink essence from our skulls But not in your life will you consume our souls Slavery is their way of life In the Democratic Republic of Congo the mines are toxic gold diamonds copper cobalt tin zinc coltan rubber it destroys the babies inside them with easy deniability for international corporations Artisanal mines collapse upon four year olds I guess it's okay that you gotta break a few African eggs to make a Westerner's omelette In a land where children are gang raped by militia men in front of their mother and father And drug away to cobalt mines and forced into child labor They'll burn down your home and they won't think twice They'll cut off your arms and spit in your eyes They'll sell your soul for a mobile device They'll steal your children and rape your wife Day after day for years with no end in sight
6.
I already knew, I was down deep inside a grasp of depression At first it was a fleeting thought here and there Nothing to worry about and then came a day Where morning wasn't yet over and I thought it twice Following that I thought, I need to get it together, put myself back together It was good for a while and then it came again and again and again and again Multiple times in day, days in a row, days in a row, days in a row And then came a day out of the blue, where I was going out of town And home felt weird to me, to be at home without the pup I was headed away for the weekend and the thought crossed my mind That I did not want to die This was a profound moment because for days, weeks, months Leading up to that moment I had been talking myself out of ending it all. Today started out well.
7.
This snake beyond my shoulder Resting near both ears Whispering desirous and deviant of the flesh This temptation will be the death of me (could have been)
8.
This mutilation rite A lack of questioning and answering A culture of bacteriums continues to thrive The way of all in the Herd and Therefore right and final Sever the flesh and infinite nerve Mutilation rite, waste disposed Now you're just like us and we look the same That's important Don't ask any questions This is the way of all in the herd and Therefore right and final Sever the flesh Sanguine libation, felated victim Cannot speak, cannot resist, cannot ask any questions Now they're just the same, the same as us, just like us and We look the same now, that's important and that is right and That is final, the way of all in the herd
9.
Your wanting meaningless Breathing in, breathing out and Giving way to the expansive knowing The glass of the infinites and Have a look for yourself Visited and borrowed and have a look for yourself A moment here, right now This moment here, right now Parallels Swimming forms are not alone Alive inflamed becomes the flames All parallel No sex, and no time, and no forms all parallel Without a face, and just the voice “All is as it should be” Have a look for yourself Through the glass, floating form Soak it in, “all is as it should be” Everything is right, all parallels Shock of falling back Face to face, now flesh again Trembling, rank of sex Where have you been? And what have you seen? Through the glass, a look for yourself All is as it should be, have a look for yourself
10.
This Lonesome linger My familiar friend Has to come to visit me again This chilling reminder of what was What could have been And what will not come to be Left me here by myself Alone with me and me Life lingered still with womb's breathe Lonesome rest on an ancient path Steady wretch, the still heart beats on When summer comes to warm my skin I'll still have never held you I'll still have never met you I'll have never heard your voice I'll know every word of your every song I will always love you As winter returns This lonesome linger Staying still and steadfast Strained souls hope and ovum bed Earthen life births an infant song Bloodline lost, a single star shines on That December day To always infamy remain Even when summer comes to warm my skin I'll still have never held you I'll still have never met you I'll have never heard your voice I will always love you, always love you As winter returns This lonesome linger Staying still and steadfast Lord, please tell me what is left for me This is taking me but leaving my sights Lord, tell me what's next for me This has, this has taken me and left my sights

about

LORD returns with their fifth album, DESPERATION FINDS HUNGER IN ALL MEN.

Impossible to pin down to any one genre, LORD is a band in constant evolution. Each song on DESPERATION is a sonic journey, featuring big, chunky riffs, labyrinthine basslines, and dual percussion not found in previous efforts.

Reflecting the listener through insidious realities of thoughtlessness and excessive consumption, the lyrics maintain a passion for the persecuted and underprivileged, and fervently explore visions of the apocalyptic nature of humankind.

DESPERATION FINDS HUNGER IN ALL MEN will be released on August 24, 2018 on digital platforms, as well as a digipack CD-R edition via Heavy Hound Records.
