Black shadow demon
Charges towards me
I am defenseless
I am its prey
Why can't I move??
Why can't I run?
Why can't I scream?
Wake me up!
Something's on my chest
And it's ripping out my soul!
Black shadow demon
Spectral intruder
Astral assailant
Psychic invader
Don't take my soul!
Why can't I move??
Why can't I scream?
Wake me up!
Help me! This can't be real
Wake up! Wake up!

Fever Dream

My teeth are falling out
They are spilling on the ground
I've been falling now for eons
Will I wake up if I drown?
The door keeps moving away
Perpetually out of reach
The stairs keep growing taller
I'm hanging on by a thread
I'm trapped in a hallway that stretches for miles
The end always seems like it's within reach
Sunlight pours through the open door
Its radiance blinds me as I fall through the floor
Chased by a creature with pointed horns
I'm pulled back by an unknown force
If it catches me I'll be ripped apart
Will I wake up if I'm caught?
I stand naked on a pillar of salt
Quickly eroding in the rain
A faceless crowd taunts and jeers
Blood spills from my ears

A threat is approaching
Devourer of suns
Giving chase
But I can never run fast enough
Like running through quicksand
Or the ocean waves
It grows closer still
I can never run fast enough
An imminent danger
Is gaining on me
Nipping at my heals
I can never run fast enough
Like slogging through mud
With opposing winds
I can't escape
I can never run fast enough
The Winds of Struggle will always be there to push you back
You can never run fast enough to escape from it
It grows closer (closer, closer)
I am within reach
Losing ground
I feel like I'm standing still
It grows closer
There's no escape
I'm within reach
Wake me up
Must go faster
I can't run faster
The Winds of Struggle
Push me back
I can never run fast enough to escape the creeping death
It's approaching hot on my heals, I am absolutely fucked

Yeah I think I've got 'em fooled
Blending in like a chameleon
I know that I don't belong here
I am way out of my league
I'll eventually crash and burn
There's only so much that I can feign
Like a trembling hand that tries to be steady
Pretending can only go so far
For now I think I've got 'em fooled
But it's only a matter of time
until I'm found out
To be the fraud that I know I am
I wear false confidence as a disguise
And it has started splitting at the seams
Everyone knows, everyone knows!
My deception has been exposed
My bluff's been called
No ace up my sleeve
The cards are stacked against me
All bets are off
I'm pushing my luck
Upping the ante
Soon I'll have to fold
I can't put my money where my mouth is
I'm going for broke

Stress

My jaw has been clenched for days
My teeth are about to crack
My mind is gonna implode
I can't bear any more of this stress
My heart is beating out of my chest
I'm exhausted, I haven't slept
I can't stop these racing thoughts
I can't handle any more of this stress
I can't do this anymore
I can't take on any more stress
I'm sweating from every pore
Always anxious without control
I feel like I'm fucking trapped
Just the thought of it I might fucking snap
How could anyone deal with all this stress
I don't want to do this anymore
I am at the end of my rope
I can't stop these racing thoughts
I can't handle all of this fucking stress
I can't escape this sinking feeling
I'm sinking into a hole I can't escape
There's no digging myself out
I guess I'm trapped here until I die

Helplessness

Smoke is in the air
An inferno in my lungs
Banshee screeching
I can't breathe
The clock is ticking, what do I do?
Who gets to live? And who has to die?
The time is approaching to make up my mind
How can I choose? This is fucked up
I must make a choice, time is running out
Make up my mind!
What do I do? Who do I choose??
Make up my mind!
Guilt and panic setting in now
This decision will forever haunt me
How will I live with myself?
Regret eats me alive, it should be me instead
They scream and scream unanswered pleas
No one to come, no one to save them
No one by their side
They scream and scream and scream
I can never forgive myself
Their ashes rain down upon me

Look at yourself
The foulest of beasts
Contorted demon
Twisting yourself to elude the punishment you deserve
Look at yourself!
Halls of retribution
These corridors are haunted by your sins
Grotesque reflections
Lost in a prison of mirrors
Look at yourself
Look at your true self
Your malice shines so bright it blinds you
Look at yourself -
Hideous, deformed
Look at your true self -
A crooked corruption
Look at yourself! Your eyes shine with malice
See your true grotesque form

They're coming for you
They live in your walls
The musty smell of bedbugs
Trap house dwellers
Vomiting their blood into your mouth
They're watching your every move
They're listening to your thoughts
Soundscape dreamworld
Ever shifting in the wind
The weavers of our dreams
Separating the mountains from the sky
They've invaded your thoughts
Your dreams, your words
Paranoia

Nothing makes me feel like it once did
Nothing impresses me anymore
Yesterday always seems better than today
When did I become so fucking jaded
My time is running out
So much wasted time
I've missed out on so much
Trying to relive the past
Wasted time on bullshit
While loved ones wither away
The world you knew is dead
Just a distant memory
You can't turn back the clock
Nothing remains the same
You wasted your fucking time
You look towards the past
for answers that will never come
Nothing remains the same
You'll never experience joy like that again
Your childhood is dead

Cutting the Throat of God
by Ulcerate
supported by 18 fans who also own “Sleep Paralysis”
M o n u m e n t a l Admittedly Ulcerate's music projects a very specific flavour - and omits countless others - focusing on perfecting the marrow of their dramaturgical message towards humanity... Nonetheless, in my opinion: Cutting the Throat of God should be thoroughly studied by future Music & Art Historians, and let's not exaggerate by comparing or analyzing - however - I believe that some of you can instinctively sense it.. Ulcerate have reached an unforeseen peak.. haven't they?
