lyrics

I watch them standing at the edge where the tides drag fragments of them away


Their footing dwindling, stability liquefying. They do not move, they do not seek salvation


As their lives are cast into the sea, the waters rise with every step I take


Victim complex runs rife within you




For quite some time now I have observed your wasteful ways


Opportunity for greatness beyond the lie they have conceived, completely gambled away

Ignoring every possibility



I have seen what comes next, I know every move you will try to make


I've studied your ways, your decisions, your creed




I can see where your attempted actions will land, marching towards a premature end


Your plan is futile, I know your game. YOU POSE NO FUCKING THREAT TO ME




Don't overestimate yourself, you're nothing more than a twisted branch on a dying tree


You don't understand the magnitude of what you have done

The consequence will stare you in the face when you step out of your cage and meet reality




Death would be too merciful for one such as you. You deserve to feel the agony you create


To live forever as it eats at you from the inside, ETERNALLY




You will break down again and again, while your dissonance provides a false sense of relief


You foolishly mistake silence for security, did you forget about me?




All that you love and care for, forgotten with your brief history


A meaningless spec in the sands of time. Don't act surprised, you knew what was coming




I have arrived, it's time you came with me, for I have something to show you


The future, your children suffering. I have your life in the palm of my hand


It grows ever shorter as you wither away




You have crushed yourself, when you're looking for someone to blame


You can call out your own name

Degeneratum image

Degeneratum Brisbane, Australia

Since completing their line-up in 2017, Degeneratum have unleashed 'Circuits', 'For The Many' and 'Invidia Mors' in quick succession, each more dark and malevolent than the last.

In a saturated scene and genre such as Death Metal, it is easy to get lost in the masses but Degeneratum steadfastly refuse to merely make up numbers.

They are here to lead the pack. ... more
