ZEITGEIST

Shift established motive though never one to speak a name

This conclusion/retribution without an appeal

Speaks volumes in the context between those hardened by .......... BONES!

See this is our demise, this is the we way we crumble

(The will to suffer life)

Like a toxin of our youth when beneath it all lurks

The gatekeeper towards togetherness so essential in a world divided in this very way.

Are we ruled by false integrity

Distractions are masked by phobias

DIE THE WAY WE CHOOSE!

You rhetoric speaks like contradiction to anyone

Stop stating unity when in disguise... YOUR PREJUDICE LIES!

(Strength in unity)

Or by the will to wait to die the way we choose

I breathe the same air that breaks the denied

I breathe the same air that speaks of our kind

Realise we are all one .......... BONES!

Founded on the principles of unity and solidarity, it is seen few and far between in most scenes today. We don't claim to be hardcore, we don't claim to be metal. We just have to label it that way so people with similar interests can find our music. However, from an outside/objective perspective it would seem that everyone has lost the notion of human beings and instead have adopted the practice of categorising everyone. There's a crust-head, a thrasher, an emo. If you come to shows and want to watch some bands and get to know interesting people, so be it. If you want to sit in a corner and hate, never truly know anyone, go home and start a website. Unity: preached but never practiced. Talk the talk, walk the walk, blah the fucking blah. [A dialogue against the jerks behind Punch an emo in the face day 6/6/06]
