THE BLIGHT lyrics
Through paralysis I’ve been summoned
Ridding this life of a pitch black entity
I am light and your end is coming
Just a blight in my veins,
I’m cutting it out
Just a blight in my veins
I’m cutting it out
I’m enlightened
BLEGH!
This won’t get the best of me
This won’t get the best of me
Sightless blight swimming in my life it’s far from graceful
(Just a pain fueled flame)
Senseless fight tryna take my mind I’m done being peaceful!
Cast aside your concept of light
Everything you’re fighting for is waiting inside
I will cut this blight that is bleeding me dry
Taking its life so it can’t take mine
Sad and how pathetic is the way it tries to feed on me
Kill it
Kill it
Kill it
I’m left broken from the loss of sleep
I’m exposed
Burning up slow
Sinking in the sand
To the vile below
little did I notice there’s something that I was born to be
Linking everything that I’ve known
It’s time for me to see
Stars in me
Guide my fate
Break
These ties - that have kept you blank
Inside
All for
Grace
This time I will find a way
Cut the ties
Sightless blight swimming in my life it’s far from graceful
(Just a pain fueled flame)
Senseless fight tryna take my mind I’m done being peaceful!
Cast aside your concept of light
Everything you’re fighting for is waiting inside
I will cut this blight that is bleeding me dry
Taking its life so it can’t take mine
Time
is up, it’s clear
I’ve gotta step to face my fear
So I created a space
And I invited it in
I can feel
The balance of everything I’ve ever known has shifted
With symbiotic limbs
It tightens grip on my legs
I scream
Its fucking over
This life is not yours it’s mine
I’ll fucking lock you here and throw the key
It’s finally over
Everything was different yet the same
Fell astray from the path but became what I needed to be
Everything was different yet the same
I was led in the dark
But I finally broke free
I’ve become the light
Fell astray from the path but became what I needed to be
I’ve become the light
I was led in the dark
But I finally broke free

I think you guys should totally go on tour, I think people would absolutely love to see your guy’s music live and have fun while at the same time listening to the very meaningful lyrics. I love your music and hope you continue to make more. ❤

[@fishy1856]

The clean vocals in between screams makes this song 10x better.

[@dead_frets]

I appreciate them both equally

[@ginoyesano5649]

Yep, and I love how they're still screamy and fit really well with the rest of the song, making the song an interesting combination of beauty and brutality

1 year later... can't agree more! This band seriously needs more exposure, so underrated and underappreciated for their music. This one is an absolute gem.

[@JerR22]

You know how good they are, I know how good they are, they obviously know too with how hard they're killing it.... Why must something "go viral" for it to be appreciated? Sorry, comments like this bug the crap out of me. Better they grow slow against the strong wind to stay true to their core, IMHO. 🤷‍♂️ Be well and keep rawkin all. 🤙

Is this the dishwashing metal song? I come from IG reel XD

[@terrytheblackmage4799]

This song really speaks to me. I'm struggling with depression, anxiety and moderate ADHD. The way "The Blight" illustrates the concept of tackling mental health issues is just the inspiration I need to turn my life around. Thank you guys, and I hope you keep making incredible music for a long time!

[@Mike-k2m7r]

I've been listening to this song off and on for about 2 years now. I know it's about something completely different, but it's helped me come to grips with the sudden death of my wife 3 years ago. I've come to realize that I had become entirely dependent on her in the 20 years we were together. She had become my everything. She died 2 days after we were in a big fight, essentially dying thinking of me as a thief (I wasn't) and a failure. It was and still is the most devastating thing I've ever experienced in my entire life. I've been struggling to come to terms with her being gone. I guess this song gives me hope that one day I can move on though at this point it seems impossible. Thank you for everything you do. It really means a lot to some folks
