lyrics

Handprints travel along my spine
A stranger has been in this vessel of mine
made use of my flesh it's been stealing my time
And I've been phantom to my love
It's true, at least I have changed
My former self dwells somewhere estranged
Bind to the body this spectre has claimed
For all that I am I now was...

What false semen of earth has birthed this sapling impure?
And what form will I take on in the hearts of those I have cured?
Will they capture my gaze and see me vacant of self?
Lost somewhere beyond the stars, a memory melting in hell

Oh how long I've desired disintegration
Now to fall astray for shameless imitation

Beyond the glass of the mirror
My shadow moves with free will
Severed from the roots of its host
A severed growth set to kill

So I sleep dormant in torment
Waiting for my prison to break
For what reality has become refracts the light in my wake
It spills the liquor my ichor
To cleanse me of the rotting
So i can burn the germ that's taken my place in my body

Grave Pilgrims self titled was by far the strongest Black Metal and tied to be my personal AOTY. The preview track is excellent and im sure the full album will again be one of the best this year. Very thankful for this. Trveheimer
