lyrics
lost
a branch torn from the tree
this feeling overwhelms me
i am not a part of this place
a world under the veil of the Beast
overrun by deception
acceptance fleeting my grasp
this is not my home
i am not my own
inviting hands
marked by leprosy
reach to pull me into the darkness
the lecherous abyss
constantly on the run
i narrowly escape the maddened throng
having found refuge for now
but as night befalls
the forest screams danger
the whispers of the trees reach my ears
"you dont belong here"
everywhere my eyes beheld
indulgence in the flesh
the downfall of society
these are the ones that reject Truth and Love
how could i ever reside in this place?
how could i ever call this place home?
forsaking each other for love of ourselves
this is the way to evolve our society
destruction of peace and truth
the new age dogma
our new creed
fools
there is no peace in sin
and i will have no part in this
Father please open their eyes
let them see the path they follow is only to death
give me strength as i trudge along this place
wandering alone in the midst of flames
a flood of madness
for i am a stranger here (this is not my place, i wont ever belong)
and i long to be Home (heaven is the my place, heaven is where i long for)
a branch torn from the tree
this feeling overwhelms me
i am not a part of this place
a world under the veil of the Beast
overrun by deception
acceptance fleeting my grasp
this is not my home
i am not my own
inviting hands
marked by leprosy
reach to pull me into the darkness
the lecherous abyss
constantly on the run
i narrowly escape the maddened throng
having found refuge for now
but as night befalls
the forest screams danger
the whispers of the trees reach my ears
"you dont belong here"
everywhere my eyes beheld
indulgence in the flesh
the downfall of society
these are the ones that reject Truth and Love
how could i ever reside in this place?
how could i ever call this place home?
forsaking each other for love of ourselves
this is the way to evolve our society
destruction of peace and truth
the new age dogma
our new creed
fools
there is no peace in sin
and i will have no part in this
Father please open their eyes
let them see the path they follow is only to death
give me strength as i trudge along this place
wandering alone in the midst of flames
a flood of madness
for i am a stranger here (this is not my place, i wont ever belong)
and i long to be Home (heaven is the my place, heaven is where i long for)

Forming in 2004, Monotheist is a progressive extreme metal band from Orlando, Florida who play a mix of brutal technical death metal reminiscent of bands like Suffocation, Death and Immolation, with progressive influences ala Cynic, Extol and Opeth. However, Monotheist manages to create a sound all their own. With their unique riffing and composition, Monotheist is a force to be reckoned with. ... more

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians!

A beautiful journey from start to finish, with perfectly placed moments of gentility amidst the rhythmic intrigue and blast beats of their guest drummer.
