    I AM // LYRICS
    Writhe, twisting pain, stabbing deep, in my brain
    Alone
    Throb, suffering, tormenting, misery
    So bleak
    (I am the) sickness inside
    I am the pain that you hide
    I am the wound that won't heal
    I am the madness you feel
    Writhe, twisting pain, stabbing deep, in my brain
    Alone
    Throb, suffering, tormenting, misery
    So bleak
    Crawling
    Stand up on your own feet
    (No more)
    Crawling
    Stand up on your own feet
    (No more)
    A strange twisting sense of madness
    And the all enveloping endless sadness
    I am the sickness inside
    I am the pain that you hide
    I am the wound that won't heal
    I am the madness you feel
    Chaos that grips my soul
    Dominates with complete control
    An enemy that won't let me be
    Struggling endlessly to be free
    Suffering in solitude
    A pain that has gradually accrued
    A nightmare from which I can't awake
    A feeling that I can't seem to shake
    I am the poison flowing in your veins
    I am the feeling that you can't sustain
    I am the pleasure you so desperately crave
    I am your master and you are my slave
    You are my slave
    I am the one who hears your prayer
    I am the only one who cares
    I will deceive
    I am the lie that you believe
    The feeling when I'm under your skin
    You're so alone
    The cursed affair in which we're ensnared
    You're so alone
    The feeling when I'm under your skin
    You're so alone
    The cursed affair in which we're ensnared
    You're so alone
    So alone

    • @jamespeterson4275
      @jamespeterson4275 6 лет назад +1

      You sure you don't mean you wish someone else mastered it? The mix is really good. Only thing wrong with it is how fake the drums sound because I'm pretty sure Keene made Chason play on an electric kit and the drums are 100% sampled and not micd acoustically. Also the bass sounds great but almost like midi and the guitar sounds a bit over processed. I love everything else. I LOVE how clearly you can hear everything which is the whole point of a mix.

    • @misterkenova6695
      @misterkenova6695 6 лет назад +2

      Yes definitely I mean the mix. Electric/programmed/sampled drums don't have to sound like that. Many of my favorite albums have drums completely programmed and they sound incredible(Periphery 1 for example). Also over processed guitars/compressed is during the mixing process. Mastering would just be finalizing the mix with multi band compressing and broadband EQing etc to adjust overall sound loudness and adjusting brightness/darkness. Mastering would enhance a very good mix not hurt it.

    Don't understand the flack this album got. Definitely still a great jam. I'm arguably biased, but Chason also tears it the hell up on this! I wish there was a different drum production, but oh well.

    There are some serious lyrical shout outs to Nine Inch Nails in this one. On or two lines are almost verbatim from Mr. Self Destruct.

      Horatio Trismegistus yes we can hell we never had them. Non musicians dont wanna have to have a bachelors degree in music theory to be able to understand this. Its boring the screams are weak asf the clean singing is bathed in opiate addiction and it really has no melody. The triggers make the kick sound like it was played on a hello kitty drumset. I was really hoping this would bring me back but they are barely hanging on. I doubt well see another album from these guys hell they arent even on the charts. I have never in my life heard an albim more boring then this its completely underwhelming.

      Dennis Brown: But dude! Planetary Duality is a fucking killer album! I am truly sad that this is not doing the same for me. It might help if they didn't switch band members twice a month. And I agree, the vocals sound like an uninspired black metal cover band. I like the clean vocals on "The Spiraling Void," but that isn't a good enough reason for me to buy this album.
