If you want to tell other people how they should and shouldn't express themselves, take a look in the mirror first.

lyrics

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
...

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. ... more
