lyrics
LAUNCH THE MONKEY
If I threw grenades at you, would you ring like a bell?
I flew across the sky for you, until somebody fell.
Let me tell you…
I’ve traveled long, I traveled far.
You’re not the one you say you are.
To get to you was quite a race.
Why are you hiding half your face?
I think you have another side.
One that’s dark and doesn’t shine.
You are too perfect to be real.
I want to know what you conceal.
Someone now remind me why, the same rules don’t apply.
I’m trying to embrace, but you seem so out of place.
I think you’d make Lord Vader proud.
The way you strut and prance around.
I think your hollow deep inside.
There is so much you now choose to hide.
Why is it we don’t visit you? I think the reason is not true.
It’s not like we don’t have the time.
I think it’s all just one big crime.
We can’t explain, the mystery remains
With a vigorous gaze that’s somewhat hypnotic,
Your dance and caper is considered exotic.
Your ability to tame the tides is nothing short of a pure delight.
You truly are the most mysterious queen of the night.
If I threw grenades at you, would you ring like a bell?
I flew across the sky for you, until somebody fell.
Let me tell you…
I’ve traveled long, I traveled far.
You’re not the one you say you are.
To get to you was quite a race.
Why are you hiding half your face?
I think you have another side.
One that’s dark and doesn’t shine.
You are too perfect to be real.
I want to know what you conceal.
Someone now remind me why, the same rules don’t apply.
I’m trying to embrace, but you seem so out of place.
I think you’d make Lord Vader proud.
The way you strut and prance around.
I think your hollow deep inside.
There is so much you now choose to hide.
Why is it we don’t visit you? I think the reason is not true.
It’s not like we don’t have the time.
I think it’s all just one big crime.
We can’t explain, the mystery remains
With a vigorous gaze that’s somewhat hypnotic,
Your dance and caper is considered exotic.
Your ability to tame the tides is nothing short of a pure delight.
You truly are the most mysterious queen of the night.

I was quickly overwhelmed the moment I listened to "Interlude." Oriental atmosphere reminiscent of Egypt is very intertwined through all. Supreme Truth has something in common with Linkin Park's Meteora.

Deathcore at its absolute best! This album plays like a weird, loud and angry opera
