Social Overdose
Below the lights
shining false bright
below the night
lit by neon signs
lies a place without heart
a city not made to last
a race not made to pass
the mark of our fathers
Stay down
comatose
stay dead
social overdose
scream your heart out
slit your wrists now
tape your mouth shut
sew your eyes up
plunge the needle
in the vein
drop the plunger
feel no pain
Stay down
comatose
stay dead
never ever close...
the faces around you
stay cold and bitter
the frail and twisted
chained to pity
Stay...

Virtue

Virtue
A clan of apathetic apes
rises from the catatonic states
created by a culture of mistakes
a zeitgeist of complete fakes
burn the forests
kill the seas
slaughter the fauna
satiate your greed
like a cancer
like a virus
like a poison
is man’s triumph
The burdens of religion
once blinded our vision
now techno precision
forges our division
divorced from the self
souls on the shelf
living in a soft cell
we wrote this hell
I mean to hurt you
I am your virtue

The Drones Of Paradise

The Drones Of Paradise
Fight or flight
reduced to flight
the inferno of might
burned down tonight
the ashes choked me
the smoke invoked me
to struggle for tranquility
I made love to futility
I take my place
my soul erased
poised to fly
posed to die
cold hands wringing thrice
swallowing every new vice
join the legions, join the mice
join the the drones of paradise
if you stare out into the sun
your fate will start to come undone
clasp your heart and begin to shun
the ways of now, the ways of scum
The drones of paradise
The drones of avarice

Witchwood Smoke
Witchwood smoky air
a place where I cease to care
the embers of my fire stare
into the dark of my spirit’s lair
Let the world decay
let it rot away

Opium Grave Melbourne, Australia
Opium Grave is Black Kosmische Musik - a malignant hybrid of black metal, darkwave, 70s and 80s horror/sci-fi soundtracks,
early electronic music and krautrock.
Opium Grave is Siliniez: all synthesizers, drums, organ, voices, lyrics and loathing.
Mankind is a plague upon the Earth and deserves nothing but scorn.
