lyrics

“Every memory and every sin
From beginning to the end
at my back door, breaking in
We all have demons, living in

With burdens on my shoulders
I'm just a little preoccupied
With an angel and a devil
In one ear and out the other
My cries for help denied

If I let them starve, they just get angry
And go hungry until they eat away at me

Slowly succumbing to my fear
First it's an eye, then it's an ear

I fear the day my body is not enough
I fear the day I can’t feed their hunger

(GO)

Breeding from the inside out
All their evil intents expand
Just focused on instant clout
With my head in the sand

Maybe we can hang the moon
Maybe they will all disappear
Every memory, a dagger
For my psychotic behavior
I’ve been told lives in me
Something I have yet to see
Who do you side with
When you're the enemy

Breed them for your own
breed them for war
constructs eclipse
clone then for more
take them for their life take all to see
aspect correct bled for the need

reign over all pain in human
existence lives plague upon land
use and dispose decay to waste
all life is lost they control space

There’s no more room for me here
There’s no place left to burn alive
The insects are eating at my eyes
So I once again look to the skies

(HOME)

——

My wings have been made by the faults of man
How I have longed to be like the rest of them
But once I step into the darkness
I can’t stop my demons from sneaking in

So it had just become second nature
Yielding to the curse of a human creature

Can you blame me for wanting to be like everyone else?

I hang from the moon

But a man can change his stars
A man can change
And a man can rearrange his stars
A man can rearrange

I’ve taken revenge for everyone I’ve ever hurt
Every scar on my back burns from my own words
Lash upon lash, I crawl back

Finally my reflection without shame
Finally the stars spell out my name”

about

Ritual Contrition image

Ritual Contrition Colorado

“Hang the Moon is a mystifying, murky and gloomy example of death metal with few frills but remarkable reward. Dismal and devastating throughout, Ritual Contrition ravage the listener with everything from ruthless riffs to pummeling percussion in the most primal manner they can.” ... more
