Confiding in the Black

Darkness falls once again
Engraved in the urges
Harboring these illusions through weary eyes
The life of darkened days
The punishing weight of fragility
Upon the shoulders
Navigating through the vapor
Amongst the pale suits
Heavy minds abound with dread
As they pass us by
Veiled in thoughts of pain
Confiding in the black
Dangerous resolve
Time and time again
A pain, unanswered
An ache left to the mind
Doused in fear
Yet I know I am not alone
Self-destruction
Condemnation
The helping hands have lost their grasp
The shoulders have vanished
We can only watch from afar
We slowly dissolve
By our own hands
The paths time of may heal
But a few lost souls, too far gone
Etched into remembrance
May they find their home

The fate of thought
Imprisoned in a cloud
Shackled by the past
On these unbreakable chains
Attained absolute severance
Traveled beyond the horizons
And yet I ponder the prospects
The life we once dreamed of
In my subconscious you reside
In the chambers of my mind
The halls are complete
Beyond this tired realm
Hidden in the otherness
You are there
Lodged deep within these thoughts
Yet only one blink away
You are there
These figures I see
Leave me to wonder
Is it the love of the past?
Is it the love of the future?
Channeling my desires
A longing for the touch
Sculpted from the memories
Of our times of pleasure
And now alone I wander
This isolated path
Now alone I traverse
Upon these clouded mountains
Now alone I stand
Bound only to the void
And alone I may fall
Where are you?

In the Hands of Apathy

Absolved in their filth
Driven only by their greed
Submerged in such power
Power over the dying souls
Such decay before them
A deathly painted landscape
Yet we are siphoned to appease them
The core of our beings
Stripped to nothing
Just a numeral apparition
A million voices, hushed eternally
A million cries, left to vanish
A million tears, evaporate
A million screams, echoed across the landscape
Their bastions of wealth will rule
A sacrificial powerscape
Clenching only the commoner’s throat
The helpless always left to rot
Asphyxiation
Damnation
The plagues consume us all
May we lay to rest

Left to the grey
Drenched in these rains
Dissolving to nothingness
Idle, somber
Another day begins
The sun casting pale shades
Another journey before me
Pushing through the fog
The curling of this oblivion
Left scarred and disconnected
Submerge myself within these walls
Let this poison clean my veins
Bring me into the circle again
Gazing forward through these rains
Arise, the dawn of failure
Harrowing memories of the loved and lost
Let the fear of defeat roam free
Free me from these chains
Cast me into the haze

Escaping the fog of reality
Clearing thoughts, righting the mind
Perhaps again I can see
The days flourish again
As this day blends into a haze
The face of time taunts me
Crushing under these heavy thoughts
Shifting into a crumble
The flight, only temporary
Airless and trapped
Moments of bliss left unanswered
No longer weightless
Returning to the void
The void of reality
Mangled by the cold
Once again left in ruins
This unruly tension
Pulling harder
The nothingness
Consumes me yet again
Again
Can this descent be harvested?
Can this purpose be replenished?
No!

The darkness has fallen again
Oblivion’s night fall
Bringing forth the curl again
Visions of a cold demise
Redemption has faded away
And now I have returned
Seeking solace in the null
Blackness returns
All light has dissipated
Lost all track of time
Awaiting the next dawn of failure

If you told me that Dischordia shared members with Dysrhythmia I'd believe it without checking. Angular, dissonant constructions that give no fucks about human enjoyment. I need more.

Exquisite harmonies resonate profoundly! Such a resounding melody, finely woven. The shadows intricately entwine with the mellifluous riffs, crafting a sublime symphony of darkness and bliss.

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it. That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter.
