Let the games begin I stand here right at the face of death; Scared for my life The crowd is waiting for my blood And all I hear is Let the games begin

Coercion 04:07
Menace to the world, we bind their lives To the crosswalk of their broken dreams We are plagues Worldly inept, we seek compassion like water; Crucial to survive But when we drink it, we spit it out And we ignore our thirst to thrive We’re all damned and blind to the oblivious reality In front of us Becoming the oppression Acting like the oppressed Our way of life is a coercion For those who live for restoration And to the poison for which it will feed Feel the force, in the Way you live, and see the Eye is blind, until there's bodies in the street How can you rebuild the world When you can’t rebuild yourself (I tried so hard) We’re all scared to break the path We were born to leave Were scared to break the path (I tried so hard) The problems around you Not seeing the truth The problem is you Not seeing the truth The pressure in my lungs (My distorted being) The gritting of my teeth Makes me hate to go on We have the chance to rebuild But we have to start with ourselves

Lost & Bound 03:42
I can’t breathe Sorrow fills my lungs The ice in my heart Turns it to stone I am lost I can’t find my way Without you here to guide me I still hear you in my dreams Calling my name so incessantly Shrouded in darkness so I can’t see A silhouette of a memory Now that you’re gone I struggle to bear the weight Of this guilt with heavy steps I carry on I resist the urge to look back and regret Blaming myself for the Things I can’t control Blaming myself and I Can’t take this much more I feel my world Crashing down around me I still don’t understand why But I know everyone has their time It was just so hard for me to see Cause I never thought that you'd Leave But you left me here A prisoner Inside my mind Even though you’re gone Your presence lingers Inside my mind Let, Let me out Let, Let me out I can’t breathe Sorrow fills my lungs The ice in my heart Turns it to stone I am lost and bound I still hear you in my dreams Calling my name so incessantly Shrouded in darkness so I can’t see A silhouette of a memory

In Light 03:53
Feel the light In a world filled with darkness We find hate, distrust and greed That covers the land But in the black of night, Some shine the light And face the world with courage Feel the light Inside of you Let it fill you with ambition And make your greatest dreams reality We shroud ourselves in a shadow of submission We’re so compliant with suppressing our potential Shatter the walls of the darkness Shatter the walls And break free Break Deep down we yearn to mend the void But we’re scared to face the unknown Deep down we yearn to mend the void But we’re scared to face failure I see the darkness in people everyday Being put forth as if it were a shield Why do people hide the light in themselves When that is what makes them whole? Break free I will find my light and illuminate the world So those surrounded in darkness can see And spread their flame

All we want is to live forever But what don't realize That one day it all comes to an end One day the cycle starts again All we want is to live forever But we don't realize That one day we have to die One day we end our insignificant lives You're insignificant Obsessed with creating a better vision We forgot that when we die we can't see a thing We think we own the world So we lie, cheat, and steal Our vision is so corrupt We don't even know what is real We think we cannot die So we waste our whole lives Trying to be what we're not Even though we're living a lie Our vision is so corrupt We don't even know what is real All we want is to live forever But what don't realize That one day it all comes to an end One day the cycle starts again All we want is to live forever But we don't realize That one day we have to die One day we end our insignificant lives The only truth in this world that remains un-shattered The biggest lie we tell ourselves is that we fucking matter (Cade Armstrong) You can't hide from your own demise In the end we can't escape our fate We are destined to become one with the earth Six feet under You can run but you will only die tired All we want is to live forever But what don't realize That one day it all comes to an end One day the cycle starts again All we want is to live forever But we don't realize That one day we have to die One day we end our insignificant lives Deception: man's greatest invention Our lives revolve around Deception: man's greatest weapon Our lives revolve around Deception

about

The Russian Sleep Experiment Milwaukee, Wisconsin

We blend metalcore, groove, & deathcore.

Because services like Spotify and Apple Music don't pay artists much for stream streaming, we use bandcamp as a way to give fans the opportunity to support our music more intimately if they want to - purchasing CDs and shirts, as well as being able to buy downloads of the music. We love all of you either way just for listening to us in the first place. ... more
