Into the Void
04:17
|

Hate me
I don't seem to mind
And thus
The void still grows inside
Heal me
Useless, shouting out again
See me
Losing grip, the last breath fades and
Into the void, I'm falling alone
Into the void, I'm falling alone
Nothing
Nothing left, just memories of
Mourning
The only thing inside
Over
Floating in this blackened vortex
Enter
The realm of eternal pain and
Into the void, I'm falling alone
Into the void, I'm falling alone
(Aah aah)
Can someone stop this train
Or will I crash again
(Aah aah)
There's no turning back
On this one-way track
Into the void, I'm falling alone
Into the void, I'm falling alone
Into the void, I'm falling alone
Into the void, I'm falling alone

Decorum, Decorum
03:28
|

Yeah!
Mobilise your metaphors, collect your clichés
Your hysteric hyperboles
(Strap on your similes, archaic not arcane)
Accumulate your analogies
When your claims prove fallacious, how will you feel?
With your head out the window, who's at the wheel?
(Who's at the wheel?)
Fabricate your fairy tales, fables and frauds
Forgery and foolishness
(Declaim against the tide, declaim against the times)
Deprivation of dignity
Now your symbols are failing, how do you feel?
With your tropes out the window, how would you heal?
Now that your claims proved fallacious, how does it feel?
Is your creed out the window, who will you be?

You toyed with the devil
He threw you the dice
Said if I beat you once
I can surely beat you twice
Eyes are blurry, skin is bleak, can't keep yourself on your feet
(Oh, what they've done to you, to bring you down like a landslide)
The colours melted off your face, ran down the drain, you're a disgrace
(Down like a landslide, like a fucking landslide)
With all this weight on your shoulders you're all sore and bent
(What have they done to you to bring you down like a landslide
Down like a landslide, like a fucking landslide)
And still they won't listen
(Still they won't listen)
After all is said and done
Still they won't listen
(Still they won't listen)
To you
Tired thoughts and broken bones, nobody there, you're all alone
(Oh, when it came to this you came down like a landslide)
You're but a shadow of the past, tattered flag on broken mast
(Down like a landslide, like a fucking landslide)
Your hands are throbbing and sore and yet you shall not rest
(Oh, when it came to this you came down like a landslide
Down like a landslide, like a fucking landslide)
And still they won't listen
(Still they won't listen)
After all is said and done
Still they won't listen
(Still they won't listen)
To you
Trapped in a city with third-degree burns
The die has been cast and all the stones have been thrown
A barrel, a target, a flood that will cure
Their treading water, treading water
Air is blurry, ground is bleak, no one is walking these streets
(They let it come to this 'cause they let their hand slide)
The plaster crumbled off the walls, disgusted of these barren halls
(It brought them down like a landslide, like a fucking landslide)
Naught but a shroud of decease, a blanket of decay
(They let it come to this 'cause they let their hand slide
You brought them down like a landslide, like a fucking landslide)
And no one can listen
(No one will listen)
Now that all is said and done
No one had listened
(No one did listen)
To you

I took a trip to the end of the world, yeah
I drove on until I saw the reaper
He caved in and he smoked like a chimney
Nicked his scythe, now I'm back from the dead
Let's break their pillars, break their rules, let's tear this world apart
Let's burn their houses, burn their souls, let's get it on
We'll break their pillars, break their rules, we'll tear this world apart
We'll burn their houses, burn their souls, we'll get it on
Yeah!
Let's make this place like the end of the world, yeah
Start fires 'til the stage is shattered
Mortify, nullify, eat or be eaten
Tough world, well we won't be drained
We'll steal their fires, torch their flags, we'll bring those curtains down
We'll wreck this ship, we'll make it sink, we'll let 'em drown
Let's steal their fires, torch their flags, let's bring those curtains down
Let's wreck this ship, we'll make it sink, let's get it on
Let's get it on!
We'll break their pillars, break their rules, we'll tear this world apart
We'll burn their houses, burn their souls, we'll get it on
Let's steal their fires, torch their flags, let's bring those curtains down
Let's wreck this ship, let's make it sink, let's let 'em drown
Let's break their pillars, torch their flags, let's tear this world apart
Let's get it on, let's get it on, let's get it on

The Pain in your Eyes
03:36
|
|||
Remember like it was yesterday
You came into my life and I started to pray
The lust and the tears
I've been seeking, running, now I found
It didn't touch you, smashed me to the ground
With lust and with tears
I saw you, my precious reborn
Didn't care about the lies, just stayed by your side
You made me so unhappy
But then I realised the pain in your eyes
I've been bleeding, but found my peace here
But when I see you, it is still there
The lust and the tears, yeah
You used them on me
I saw you, my precious reborn
Didn't care about the lies, just stayed by your side
You made me so unhappy
But then I realised the pain in your eyes
I saw you, my precious reborn
Didn't care about the lies, just stayed by your side
You made me so unhappy
But then I realised the pain in your eyes

Perverted Progression
03:48
|

Faceless people preaching words
I cannot comprehend
I can hear them talking
But I fail to understand
With every single thought
That's floating through my head
The shape of what my senses show me
Seem to change and shred
Soulless people barking orders
It has been declared:
Brethren, cast aside your doubts
No one shall be spared!
With every single bullet
Flying through the air
A message is delivered
Spread to everywhere
Colour the waters, still you are damned
You shall never wash the blood from your hands.
What is the purpose, why can't they see?
When will we ever get a chance to be free?
Lifeless people left behind
Scattered on the fields
Burnt-up grass and withered crops
Nothing that it yields
You gaze upon a land
As barren as it gets
And still your shrouded mind can't see
That all lies but in shreds
Shreds

Shut us Up
03:57
|
|||
We're ugly 'cause you said so
In your suits and in your white coats
But we're the waves crashing down below
Slowly eating away at your cliffs
Try to make us follow your path
Bend to rules on a sinking raft
But we're going to break these shackles
That were forged of lies and hate
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
You'll never shut us up, you'll never shut us down
Some day you will turn to dust
Never to be remembered
You'll never shut us up, you'll never shut us down
Fear is what fuels your engine
But we're not going to power you up
We mean danger 'cause you said so
Burn the pictures that you made up
We don't fit the frames you've prepared for us
For us
We shall not accept your offers
all the things you bribe us with
Your riches are tainted with blood
We won't have on our hands
You'll never shut us up, you'll never shut us down
Some day you will turn to dust
Never to be remembered
You'll never shut us up, you'll never shut us down
Fear is what fuels your engine
But we're not going to power you up
You'll never shut us up, you'll never shut us down

Godless World
05:05
|
|||
He who treads so carefully
Lest his Lord should strike him down
He who ponders silently
On holy words and holy gowns
This world is smitten with His curse
Still they fear to break their chains
If the skies cracked open
Could you cope?
He has been long gone
It's a godless world
The shepherd left His sheep behind
Those who punish in His name
Willing to butcher on command
If but one is still alive
This carnage shall not end
If the skies cracked open
Could you cope?
He has been long gone
It's a godless world

What I Am
04:06
|
|||
Why do you worry for me
Worry for me when I'm clearly alive
Hear my heart, it beats in crotchets
I was never like you
And I never aimed to be
Your reason I never knew
And your thoughts I never could see
You told me what I could have had
(All I could have had)
You showed me all I could have been
I'll show you what I am
And still you worry for me
Still you worry when I'm clearly alive
Never shall I walk in these crutches
I never felt I liked you
And I won't pretend to care
Your tongue I never could hear
And your plans leave me naked and bare
You told me what I could have had
(All I could have had)
You showed me all I could have been
I'll show you what I am

Sharp Knives, Dull Mind
03:46
|
|||
It's your apathy
That lets me drown
Your ignorance
That floods my lungs
My blood a mirror
In which you show
My blood a mirror
In which you show
In the palm of your hand
Lies the seed of destruction
Death is not
Glamorous
Someday you will fall down
Weep and maybe understand
Death is not
Glamorous
Sharp are your knives
Dull is your mind
Sharp are your knives
Dull is your mind
Sharp are your knives
Dull is your mind
Sharp are your knives
Dull is your mind

Originally founded in 2013 as a stoner band, senex have been grooving straight through such a variety of styles that it’s hard to pin them down on one certain genre. Be it melodic, floating riffs or relentless drum bashing, everything somehow falls into place and integrates itself into their own distinct sound. ... more
