Living Consequence

Now’s the time for trembling
You are not afraid
Now’s the time to get up
Now’s the time to wake up
To fight the endless battle
One that can grind to a halt but never be won
...
Slide your claws out, take a deep breath
For even their mightiest in darkness
Cannot do worse than you
Bare your fangs and taste their death
Open up your soul
And let them drown in you
Predator
Frustration
Living repercussion
Dweller in deeper than the darkest dark
Move quick through ever deeper shade
Until you cross over
Battle dark stars and silent wraiths
Until they go nova
Tail betrays an eagerness
Over and over
Predator
Storm incoming
The living consequence
Creature of the deeper night

Blood Sacrifice
05:22
|

Twisted. I'm twisting
Holding something sacrificed to me
Blood drips off my snout, still congealing
In the cold
When you go in hiding from the night
Make sure you leave an offering
Blood is not a senseless sacrifice
When it’s what keeps you breathing
And you might catch a glimpse of me, turning away
When you’re naked, set adrift, making no headway
…
Your fear, your blood, your hate, your impurity
All these things could have been made of me
Everyone is somebody's monster
I can't think of a better one to be
When the snow turns red with bits of bone and flesh
You'll say what a harsh world this is
If they find open wounds in a cage of wire mesh
You'll tell them what a nice place this is
Strands of sable hair from my tail drift on the air
Pluck them, the seventh is my chord
I'm writhing across the snow, and I want you to know
Guardians of blood and bone are only cast ashore
…
So when you go in hiding from the night
And, light as the winter wind, I'm creeping
Your own is not a senseless sacrifice
When it’s what keeps you breeding
In the cold!
What a nice world we live in
When you're told who to be by someone else
What a harsh world you live in
When you sacrifice another for yourself

Vertigo Fox Winnipeg, Manitoba
Vertigo Fox is a band made up of one mysterious, probably catlike creature.
A mysterious creature who, tired of
hearing the same themes in music year in and year out, decided to create something altogether stranger.
Vertigo Fox enjoys long walks and hikes, though the cats he inevitably encounters always tell him they're prowls.
