The Betrayer 05:43
Living in the darkness In a winter haze Is this what I've succumbed to For the rest of my days? So sick of hiding Don't want to be untrue I'm shedding my skin to be reborn My eyes are looking through I'm fading away No tears for a wolf in sheep's clothing I'm feeling the weight Of Betrayal on my shoulders I've been buried alive Suffocated by my own hand I just wanted to die Every time i looked in your eyes Pulled from the inferno Saved from my destruction You were a beacon of light Leading me through the darkness This sea of sorrow Is too hard to bare This weight is dragging me under And I cannot swim I've been buried alive I always promised to be true I could see it in your eyes All the pain that I caused

Bury You 04:52
Watch the foldbacks fall Keep your white flag tall A psychopathic grin from this devious in The horns about to blow to show watch the amps fuckin' blow The jealous eyes as the gunpowder dries As your arrogance prevails What's the bet heads or tails? There's no price on your head They just want you for dead Raising your glass as you're caught in the past Brought back to size which is your demise We'll Bury You When the pain won't suffice We'll Bury You Your balls to the fucking vice Dime a dozen next to nothing Back of the line Fixed on making something That's been left behind Don't rest your eyes and fall asleep These shoes you mould We're lining out the box We've measured head to toe It takes a showbag to show Full of shit we all know Say's he's got the gameface just in case Is he gonna piece the puzzle we unleash Only time will tell so fuck the past back to hell We'll Bury You A shovel to the head We'll Bury You You hearing what I said? We will bury you all You can't shut us down We control this now Break this fucking wall

So tell me why I got this far There's only one thing that you realise When your life's so hard The Book of Black only treads so far Just try to fill the void Is it me or are you paranoid? Rollin wayward on your wicked way You get onto your knees and pray For your day of reckoning There's only hell to pay So tell me how did you get this far Leeching off the back of your friends And you try so hard To Pint a picture of a life unscarred Crawling around on your knees its so sad Constantly repenting a life that's so bad But you're of the wicked not of the light We'll see who'll be left after this night

Killing Time 06:14
Don't do as I do just do as I say This late night habit keeps me clear from day Can't fight it no more start clutching the walls Breaking out the door to the man to score Over and out in more ways than one Each to their own get my fix for fun A new outlook on what life's suppose to be No work and all play gotta fight to be free Can't stop the voices in my head They come to me when no one else is left Can't stand the feeling of being alone Time's a factor for the motive you fiend to own I'm feeling fine For the moment I'm just killing time Don't waste your breath I'm just killing time I keep a closed quarter with a house full of bricks and mortar Keep the straight jackets on for the schizophrenic paranoia I keep a bat beneath the seat for the demon's I unleash It's a hell of a ride when you're flying through the front seat I pave the way for a scattered Sunday Need no piece of mind anarchy's my forte I won't hear what's said I'm gonna wait to talk Not one to wait I'm all all the fucking walk The time's ticking by got your ass on the line Too many times have past when I've seen

Decimate 05:52
You lifeless hate filled spawn You think that you can take me? We'll I've got something right here To show you how to fuckin break me This time the pressure's on You're not the only one We've turned the tables Now you're under the gun You try to bring me down But you don't even know why I've got one thing to say, just try I just can't compromise There is no changing sides We've got the drop on you The anvils crush you down to size Firing on all cylinders We've got you in our fuckin sights It's time to pay the debt We're coming to collect tonight Just try to desolate me Just try to aggravate me You can't destroy me and you will never know why Just try to annihilate me Just try to terminate me You can't DECIMATE me why don't you just try to Decimate us

about

Decimatus Melbourne, Australia

Evolving the groove sound from the blueprint left by Pantera, Decimatus have been able to combine it with the raw heaviness of Lamb of God. The band has been able to forge ahead with a sound that wears its influences on its sleeve but in a way that doesn't seem dated or rehashed. This album is a breath of fresh air. Their take on metal is great because it’s fun and familiar while still original. ... more
