lyrics

Symbol of Life,

To save face, you keep the faith. It's the American way
I'll do my best to keep the fire burning
In fact, it's only a game, you only win if you play
You lost it all before you even started

Failure and Sorrow: The only company a cynic ever needs
Heartless and Hollow: I find my solace in the endless suffering

Icon of cruelty kills like cancer, but can never control...
The weak and envious of lesser gods that do what they're told

A sign, a symbol of loss (I mourn and hold back the flood of tears)
I still struggle to hold you here (struggle to hold you)
As I wait here for you, it's only right that I suffer (suffer here)
And face the wolves at my door and sing a song for the lost

Symbol of life, it’s a waste. Clasping the hands of disgrace
Sinking below, there is no higher learning
Censor the words that you say. Take the regret to your grave
It’s all the same, you’re holding onto heartache

Failure and Sorrow: The only company a cynic ever needs
Heartless and Hollow: I find my solace in the endless suffering

Icon of cruelty kills like cancer, but can never control...

Chorus

Amazing songs,KSE lyrics helps me a lot,i lost my father recently(2020). The time where i was really close with him was in summer 2007 and i listened a lot to ADD Album at the time. So hearing KSE always reminds me of him,r.i.p. Jesse leach is an amazing vocalist and lyricist,howard too. love 'em both. Adam is a genius period. Mike's an amazing drawer/artist and bass player. Joel and justin are rythm legends,scott (old drummer i think)was a beast too. God bless you KSE cheers from France thejusticemetalsword

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive

My first exposure to Inferi was seeing them live with Shadows of Intent. They were supporting this album. Unbelievably awesome live show and the greatest possible way to discover this amazing band. Love everything they produce. Obstacle of Affliction
