THE WILDEBEEST

lyrics

Track 4: The Wildebeest




Return to the labyrinth, so cold
A Person, abnormality and absolved
With a History filled with negativity

The Wilderbeest

Parents killed themselves from the insanity

At the sight and horrors
of their precious baby
Unnatural animality

To choose between a life
of banality,
Or, addiction Spurned genetically

Mechanism of care is a laboratory for despair
Insatiable appetite
Born deformed with horns and hairy belly
Not to be seen but realms of the obscene

To quench the pain of loneliness again
The only friend left have in the end
To burn away my reality again
The unbearable pretend

Shame on those think ill of him
Those who know will know
The beast has heart of gold
But who can know
if ever after
pathetically alone

Void for Joy, and night for day
To feel this is the only way
To be a creature of strife and pain
To feel the worst of human shame.

The Wildebeest

Cursed into a parasitical state,
Paralytic shadow of oblivion’s gate
So near to society, yet hidden from view
He only comes at night! He only comes at night!
He only comes at night!

When love…
Is chemical and haunted

We here in heaven, enthroned by the filth,
They’re coming, they’re coming, to my abode
Be brave... and leave the earth unfettered
With All crimes forgiven, as I sink…. below

Look at me, the Wildebeest
I was your only son,
By these hands, I took human life
But all I wanted was your love…

I have Pain in my body
And Blood on my hands
Forsaken by my ancestors
Half Animal, half Man

Pharmaceutical craving
Fitful sleep and cowardly raving
When love, all that is sought or wanted
Is chemical and haunted

exacerbate maximum velocity
scrutiny... mediums of… lunacy
explosions… charged by trinity
weapons of precision… striking
the minority

Return to the labyrinth, so cold
A Person, abnormality and absolved
With a History filled with negativity

A newspaper headline reads: “Corpse of man beast junkie found in urban drug den hovel”.

VOID UK

For over 20 years, VOID has scorned convention, combining disparate influences that include DHG, Emperor, Sleepy Time Gorilla Museum, Carcass, Morbid Angel, Aphex Twin and Venetian Snares. VOID’s music is the soundtrack for an urban, post- industrial dystopia. A merciless snapshot of decay, an invitation to contemplate the ruins of History. ... more
