Curse all our souls They don’t pray for us Curse all our souls They don’t weep for any of us They smile while we beg Don’t burn out, years of fire and plagues We got flood when we begged for rain. Fear and joy, no chance to co-exist You try, you fail. Crawl away at hope until it’s gone. Fear and joy, we’re so spiritually inept It’s not getting better Keep growing bitter Curse all our souls They don’t weep for us Curse all our souls They smile while we beg

Trench Mouth 10:35
Worms of the earth Spit salt into your wounds Pick at the scabs Hollow yourself out Your hate is disguised as love That's how this ends You’ll get yours, I’ll get mine Fuck your knives, I got rope Fuck your life I got you by the throat Did I stutter? When I said you pigs deserve the dirt. You pigs will get much worse. You’ll choke on your forked tongue Fuck your knife, I got rope And got you gripped By the throat. Fuck your life. Clocked in, clocked out.

You’ll descend Forfeit all that’s left Spiral and dissolve Swallowed by the sea Time destroys all things But you watched the clock Fall Forget all them Forget all that You’ll find me on The ocean bed With my hands Over my head My eyes are closed My eyes are closed You descend Forfeit all that’s left Spiral and dissolve

Life's Worth 05:55
Sky above, ocean below Carry the weight, suffer the load Idle hands keep throwing stones Things fall apart, we all know that Demons may drift inside our heads They’ll get to you until your dead Until the ground beneath us Cracks The hive was kicked long ago The swarm inside our heads Rages on and on

Departure 04:30
Every creature will taste Almost certain death And yet they will still Mock your corpse When that light goes out It will never turn back on again

about

Released via Crucible - www.crucibleart.com

Bitter, discordant, and relentless; ISUA’s debut full length album Abandon is an ode to forfeited hope. An overwhelming sense of anguish is felt across the five tracks, delivered with a devastating load of grinding doom. Falling further from peace and succumbing to the despair of being pushed aside and left behind, Abandon serves as a cathartic release of resentment - an embrace of uncertainty.
