about

"The desert wind would salt their ruins and there would be nothing, nor ghost nor scribe, to tell to any pilgrim in his passing how it was that people had lived in this place and in this place died."
- Cormac McCarthy

lyrics

Dear friends look before you
This crimson sky
Peace is a false god
I’ll tell you why
War absorbs all men
This fire doth prove it true
Upon this rock we build our church
A bullet in every pew

Now let the show begin
It’s time for anarchy again

Gather round gather round now
Each to their stall
This coin and all coins
Can you hear them call?
We’ve no more options
And no more time to rest
Forge anew your contracts
Your destiny manifest

Now let the show begin
It’s time for anarchy again

No indication
I am the chill
Destroy the old way
A force of will
The rise and plateau
Dawn of your day
This island mankind
Reduced to gray

Violet

I've been a fan of The Birthday Massacre for years, and I have been in love with them since day one. This album embodies the mid 2000s for me. It's spooky and beautiful. Michael Haggerty
