Constructive Cannibalism
( lyrics by Riley Giffin )

From the brink of death,
we were on the edge of failure
Turn it all around, make something better

The solution has always been in front of me
I wonder why I never thought of it before
We can figure this out!
Just need to bring in some reliable help

Shattered glass within us ,
scars and broken bones
Moss has covered ruins
of giants overthrown

A core of three has always been established
And these three will step forward
into the light
from which they’ve often shied

We will gorge ourselves

There are four now
and there may soon be more
Our strength is growing
with each passing day

Gnashing our teeth and ripping the flesh
Our victim is not long dead
and it will bring us sustenance

I have idle days
but when we meet I get the chills
I've got a loaded mind
And nothing but time to kill
I've got all these thoughts
...my guts to spill
It's a lovely concept,
but could I commit to this ?

I hope these words will please you
( I do this only for myself )
I hope these songs impress

The band has changed
we've found a sound of our own,
I think we show growth

The band has changed
Lost some friends but we're not alone
It's time to let you in
