LYRICS: Rise above, the lethargic kind, An example made, the only way to make a change. Your apathy, and selfish mind You expect the most, and feel cheated when you’re left behind Assume you’re wrong, then prove it right But don’t presume your way is the only way (You) Project yourself into their shoes You experience nothing if its only what you choose. Patience has died, tolerance denied. God save our souls Save our souls Please Reveal Humanity’s Grace Think just enough to find a way To confirm and justify your selfishness Deceive yourself to your motives Tell yourself you're wiser, but you know the truth Patience has died, tolerance denied. God save our souls Save our souls Please Reveal Humanity’s Grace Humanity's grace Is revealed Or will it push Us further apart? Fear kills the mind Clear thoughts unwind Dehumanise Discounted life

LYRICS: (An ode to Isambard Kingdom Brunel) The engineer, within own circles acclaimed Through the documented vision i learned Of a man with vision But within the majority, forgotten and unknown He lived to build the grandest - the Great East A life he succumbed to the beast He left a modern marvel to behold Dismantled now, no story told His effigy forgotten, dismantled memories and steel How sad I was to see one man's life work An epitaph no more... For his dream his life he sacrificed Assumed a grandeur in post mortem It made me ask myself What am I to leave behind, who'll care? He lived to build the grandest - the Great East A life he succumbed to the beast He left a modern marvel to behold Dismantled now, no story told His effigy forgotten, dismantled memories and steel How sad I was to see one man's life work An epitaph no more... He lived to build the Great East A life he succumbed to the beast He left a modern marvel to behold Dismantled now, no story told

LYRICS: I've fallen, I've failed I've bled, I've lost and I've cried I've shut down and I've crawled away My mind and soul bleed Next time everyone will know me for real that's the fear that rules me I'm not an improvement on my surroundings the more i try, the worse i am, the more i try the worse i am You defined yourself - now live with this Don't try to feel, don't try to be What you can never be Don't try to have a real emotion You're sterile, contrived and fake Get back in your box In your box you're safe and dead There's no life to be afraid of You find ways To obsess with pathetic thoughts To indulge your petulance And pretend you're so racked with pain Get out of your mind Get out of your mind It's there for you to find Your self absorption is a crutch so you don't have to live a fucking life My self worth finally asserts itself As grief, anger, misery and tears I am nothing and can no longer be This charade of a life ends now I'm not an improvement on my surroundings the more i try, the worse i am, the more i try the worse i am You defined yourself - now live with this Don't try to feel, don't try to be What you can never be Don't try to have a real emotion You're sterile, contrived and fake Get back in your box In your box you're safe and dead There's no life to be afraid of

about

The band broke up in 2007, but had a small reformation around 2008, but this was short lived.

In the time between the Waiting for Today EP and this final conclusion of the band, we had around 7-8 new songs completed and 2-3 more in the works. We really felt they were some of our best material.

Sadly they never saw the light of day until a chance opportunity came up to get together again and record at least 3 tracks in 2017. The end result is this EP.

These songs would of been written as far back as 2005, origins perhaps even earlier.

The band had in fact undertaken another reformation in 2014 with the addition of a second guiatrist Jonno Cachia and new bassist Lockie Kent which culminated in our first gig in at least 7 years in late 2014 at an all day music festival at the reverence hotel in Footscray, headlined by one of our favourites Dreadnaught!
Our performance can be seen on youtube if you look us up at the reverence.

We were very happy with how the show went. Probably in truth our best show in all our time in terms of professionalism.
It was great to perform at this show and give the songs justice.
Sadly once again the band fell away in early 2015, until the opportunity to record arose in 2017 as a one off.

It was great to give some of these songs a life they never looked like getting.

Hope you enjoy these songs, we definitely got heavier as time went on!

Who knows, maybe there'll be another incarnation of the band still to come...
