BeaniBirb A true album at its very core, with probably some of the best head banging moments in each song. Favorite track: Viscera.

Lex Holy hell, just an absolute trip of an album, in the best way possible. It conveys emotions that you can’t even describe, but they’re there! This really feels like an album. Every track flows into each other so damn well. Great work as always! We Saw It First gives me such chills, Favourite Kill is a very close second fav <3 Favorite track: We Saw it First.

dauntlessdan Been listening to this album nonstop. I can't even pick a favorite track. It is what got me into Riikira and this style of electronic metal/digital hardcore is so unique and heavy with the mix of ambience and emotion. Forever a fan now! Riikira is also a dope looking alias 🤟

Poison IV 04:09
The dead are crawling up every wall The soil's uninhabitable Drip-feeding her death We the poison IV We plug our ears to her call The polite little petals are silent as they hit the floor Lest they disturb the peace All these walls they need to break We're building Hell, for Heaven's sake Drip-feeding her death We the poison IV Soon the tremors turn to quakes The polite little petals are silent as they hit the floor Lest they disturb the peace The planet's been confined for the last time Let go, open the scars The planets have aligned for the last time There's no hope in the stars The blackness is endless And only getting darker The dead are crawling up every wall The soil's uninhabitable Drip-feeding her death We the poison IV We plug our ears to her call The polite little petals are silent as they hit the floor Lest they disturb the peace The planet's been confined for the last time Let go, open the scars The planets have aligned for the last time There's no hope in the stars She cries in rose-tinted tears For the time her veins would flow crystal clear She cries in rose-tinted tears For the time her veins would flow crystal clear The planet's been confined for the last time Let go, open the scars The planets have aligned for the last time There's no hope in the stars

Dead End 03:05
Peel back your ears Try this one out for size Just to be clear I'm not a sight for sore eyes And on you march like drones to queen Do you know what "dead end" means? Still you march like drones to queen Sure, friend, come a little closer There's a last time for everything Your end waits in your field of roses A dissonance in the space between Peel back your ears Try this one out for size Just to be clear I'm not a sight for sore eyes And on you march like drones to queen Do you know what "dead end" means? Still you march like drones to queen Sure, friend, come a little closer There's a last time for everything Your end waits in your field of roses A dissonance in the space between

P(r)ay 02:28
Free your binds from your cents and your quarters Leave behind Hell for your sons and your daughters The eyes of power rule with blindfold And the ivory tower's walls are lined gold Pray up, pray up, pray up Pay up, pay up, pay up Pray up, pray up, pray up Pay up, pay up, pay up Free your binds from your cents and your quarters Peace of mind with salvation pre-ordered The eyes of power rule with blindfold And the ivory tower's walls are lined gold Pray up, pray up, pray up Pay up, pay up, pay up Pray up, pray up, pray up Pay up, pay up, pay up Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Lest faith be diminished, succumb to lust Forty lashes, we can smell distrust Count down the minutes, the Rapture's on us Pray up, pray up, pray up Pay up, pay up, pay up Pray up, pray up, pray up Pay up, pay up, pay up Count down the minutes, the Rapture's on us

Sparrow 04:38
With sensibilities scarred And all reason revoked No matter how high our guard If you squeeze, we choke A dying sparrow won't come home That of mind is not mirrored by tongue Fears eyes are large and see as one How hard is it to love until you're gone? W--h se--it---ie- sc--r---d A-- al-- re-a-o- r-e----k-d No ma-t-- h--w -i- ou- gu--- If -o-u- -q-z,- -we --c--- A dying sparrow won't come home That of mind is not mirrored by tongue Fears eyes are large and see as one How hard is it to love until you're gone? And through our eyes all we see is mist Made from the butterflies your bullets kissed And through our bodies all we breathe is smoke Interwoven with the lives you revoked

Where do I take this pain of mine I run but it stays right by my side So tear me open, pour me out There's things inside that scream and shout And the pain still hates me So hold me until it sleeps Just like the curse, just like the stray You feed it once and now it stays Now it stays So tear me open, but beware There's things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me until I'm clean It grips you, so hold me It stains you, so hold me It hates you, so hold me It holds you, so hold me until it sleeps Until it sleeps So tell me why you've chosen me Don't want your grip, don't want your greed Don't want it I'll tear me open, make you gone No more can you hurt anyone And the fear still shakes me So hold me until it sleeps It grips you, so hold me It stains you, so hold me It hates you, so hold me It holds you, holds you, holds you until it sleeps Until it sleeps Until it sleeps I don't want it, want it, want it, want it, want it, no So tear me open, but beware There's things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me 'til I'm clean I'll tear me open, make you gone No longer will you hurt anyone And the hate still shapes me So hold me until it sleeps Until it sleeps Until it sleeps

If I talk like one of us None of them will listen Throw them in the chamber And lock the doors It's all about the ego and never life Did you even for a second pay a thought to who they are? They may be thirty-three, though they may be five Doesn't really matter to the flash of an AR Look on the bright side, you get your pedestal Your name in lights as my favourite kill Look on the bright side as it looks you dead in the eye Those made of lead are the easiest pills Welcome to planet Earth The land where "saw it first" only applies if you keep your head Welcome to planet Earth I guess it could be worse To bend your knee is the dance of death Look on the bright side, you get your pedestal Your name in lights as my favourite kill Look on the bright side as it looks you dead in the eye Those made of lead are the easiest pills Hey, how are you? Down on your luck? Can you think back... when did it start? Hey, coward No one elses blood can pump your failing heart

In Season 03:45
Bad memories, who needs them? They bite the hand that feeds them Looks like I better watch my neck 'Cause suicide is in season If I don't open the door, how are you supposed to leave? Carve me some new gills, 'cause I need some time to breathe Find the exits on my thighs Shut the door on your way out Run along now, play outside Can't afford to let the heat out If I didn't make the cut, then explain the state of my skin It's no fun to see history repeating But at least feeling like shit is a feeling Bad memories, who needs them? They bite the hand that feeds them Looks like I better watch my neck 'Cause suicide is in season I'll open my body to free my mind Hoping somebody can read my mind I'll open my body to free my mind I am nobody, pay me no mind If I didn't make the cut, then explain the state of my skin It's fun to see history repeating But at least feeling like shit is a feeling I'm tired of giving myself hell I deserve better A better hell than this I can't find a single drop of hope in this mess When i don't even know if I can afford my final breath How am I supposed to heal? You left me too sharp to caress I'd care more if I could care less I've found that confessing only makes it worse How do I count my blessings when I'm bound by my curse? I've found that confessing only makes it worse How do I count my blessings when I'm bound by my curse, of my Bad memories, who needs them? They bite the hand that feeds them Looks like I better watch my neck 'Cause suicide is in season Bad memories, who needs them? They bite the hand that feeds them Looks like I better watch my neck 'Cause suicide is in season

Isn't it a lonely existence to pick and choose your friends? Let me tell you a story of how you meet your end Disappear Come here Disappear як роса на сонці Disappear Come here Disappear як роса на сонці Disappear Come here Disappear як роса на сонці Disappear Come here Disappear як роса на сонці

Sparrow nesting But we saw it first Silent, resting Mind if you turn to dust? Roses are dead Violet's lost its hue Hope is hopeless The fire consumes March to your death As if you have a choice Take your last breath As if you have a voice Roses are dead Violet's lost its hue Hope is hopeless The fire consumes The leaves all start to fall To welcome in the Winter The waves don't crash at all Hell won't know what hit 'em Sparrow, lead the way Spare only the weak Spiral in the whirlpool and spear from underneath Sparrow, lead the way Split the bloated into three Stand upon the world and spit out all their teeth The leaves all start to fall To welcome in the Winter The waves don't crash at all Hell won't know what hit 'em The leaves all start to fall (the leaves all start to fall) To welcome in the Winter The waves don't crash at all (the waves don't crash at all) Hell won't know what hit 'em

Blue Mother 07:22
...and as our conscience becomes numb As we turn our backs on the Sun Take what we need and run We wonder "where the fuck has the world gone?" Endlessly etching our name in the dirt Oppressing, digesting, just say when it hurts Investing, infesting, no thought for the Earth We stand on the blessing that calls us its curse Blue mother, lying still in the sand Don't give another, when we beg for a chance Blue mother I am deserving of all from your mantle cut wide open ...and as our conscience becomes numb As we wonder what went wrong As our outlook is overrun We wonder "where the fuck has the world gone?" Endlessly etching our name in the dirt Oppressing, digesting, just say when it hurts Investing, infesting, no thought for the Earth We stand on the blessing that calls us its curse Blue mother, lying still in the sand Don't give another, when we beg for a chance Blue mother I am deserving of all from your mantle cut wide open Where the fuck has the world gone? Where the fuck has the world gone? Where the fuck has the world gone? Where the fuck has the world gone? Where the fuck has the world gone? Where the fuck has the world gone? Where the fuck has the world gone? Where the fuck has the world gone?

Viscera 03:27
We can't survive on a world ripped in half If the Sun could turn its back would you even feel the difference? You gotta take the good with the bad, so they say But I won't stand in my own viscera The Sun will rise again, worthy or not To heal the bleeding heart beneath our feet The Sun will rise against you A mistake we won't have to repeat Viscera My own viscera Viscera We can't survive on a world ripped in half If the Sun could turn its back would you even feel the difference? You gotta take the good with the bad, so they say But I won't stand in my own viscera The Sun will rise again, worthy or not To heal the bleeding heart beneath our feet The Sun will rise against you A mistake we won't have to repeat Viscera My own viscera Viscera
