I AWAKE
THE CLOVEN HOOVES STILL RESONATE
IN MY SKULL
NO MORE SHALL I HIBERNATE
UNTIL SHE LIES DEAD
AND SILENCE REIGNS IN PEACEFUL WAVES
IT'S ON MY HEAD
THE KISS OF WINTER
THE SIREN CALLS
THE WRITHING FORCE
IN FROZEN HALLS
HER ANTLERED CROWN ELUDES ME HER SCENT IS INDISTINCT
I SEE THE FLASH OF DEER HIDE
BEAR SPIRIT LEND ME STRENGTH
THE SCRAPS OF FUR LAY BLOOD-RED
THE ANTLERS DRIP WITH GORE
HER HEAD HELD HIGH TRIUMPHANT
DEER WOMAN STRIDES/STRIKES ONCE MORE

YOUR HEAD HAS AN IRON DEFICIENCY
THAT ONLY MY AXE CAN CORRECT
I'LL GOUGE OUT YOUR EYES WITH A TOOTHPICK
I'LL THROTTLE YOUR NECK
SALT THE FIELDS AND SCORCH THE GROUND/SPIT THE BILE
DESOLATION ALL AROUND/THE WHILE
I'LL CUT OUT YOUR THROAT WITH MY SHOVEL
DISPOSE OF YOUR BODY MAKE HASTE
I'LL MAKE SURE THAT THEY'LL NEVER FIND YOU
THE CONSTABLE HASN'T A CLUE
A JUGULAR TO SEVER
I DRAW A BATH OF RED
NO LIFE MAY LAST FOREVER
AND HUNGER MUST BE FED

A SWARM OF WASPS
FRAYED CLOTHES ON MY BACK
A NOOSE ON MY NECK
A GAG IN MY BREATH
A CAGE BENEATH
SWEAT IN MY EYES
AND RAGE IN HIS
A SWARM OF WASPS
AND EYES IN MY HEAD
A SCREAM AND A SMASH
NEVER HEARD OF AGAIN
VENOM IN MY VEINS

I'VE SEEN THINGS YOU PEOPLE WOULDN'T BELIEVE
ATTACK SHIPS ON FIRE OFF THE SHOULDER OF ORION
I WATCHED C-BEAMS GLITTER IN THE DARK NEAR THE TANNHAUSER GATE
ALL THOSE MOMENTS WILL BE LOST IN TIME
LIKE TEARS
IN THE RAIN

GIVEN TO DOGS
PORCINE CONVERSION
THROWN IN A BOG
LAMB TO THE SLAUGHTER
TRIGGERS IN LEASH
THRUST IN MY STERNUM

Gnarhval Chicago, Illinois
Archaeological finds indicate that something called a Gnarhval existed between 2011 BC and 2016 AD in Chicago. No one living today knows quite what a "sludge metal band" was, but it seems to have been a device for inflicting damage on one's hearing.
Gnarhval recommends:
Instrumental, heavy mathrock/prog metal. Featuring Juan of Gnarhval
