[ I. Grinding Teeth ] I grind my teeth A silent scream Pressure builds A fractured dream Teeth splinter Thin as glass Crumbling crowns as moments pass Jaw locked tight A bitter bite Decay sets in, no end in sight Feel the pull from beneath my skin The Hunger grins as it draws me in [ II. Struggle for Control ] Brittle shards below my crown Fall, fragment, sinking down I bite to claim what’s left as mine The Hunger grows from deep inside We are now one I feel the swarm A hive of thought In endless form Each crack It calls Whispers my name I bite I break I’m not the same! [ III. Crumbling Crowns ] Crumbling crowns I shatter and break Crumbling crowns How much can I take? Teeth crack from not giving in Autonomy rotting within Crumbling crowns I bite and grind Crumbling crowns I lose my mind Teeth snap beneath the weight They're guiding me, I meet my fate! [ IV. Candy Husk ] I taste their sugar A sickened scent Thick and stale My breath is spent The Hunger calls I pay the price Strength slips away like brittle ice Fighting back I crack and break The Hunger calls for all to make The sweetened whispers pull me in A candy husk where flesh had been [ V. Hive of Silence ] Their silent voices, our hollow task In candy husks we wear our masks Thoughts invade Not of my own I try to fight but fracture bone Grinding of teeth An endless sound The Hive responds pulling me down The Hunger pains where whispers glaze The hum Invades It's in my brain! [ VI. The Teeth of the Hive ] Crumbling crowns More than I take! (TAKE!) Crumbling crowns Each bite, I break! (BREAK!) Teeth grind through the brittle mask My will consumed This cannot last! Crumbling crowns With syrup veins Crumbling crowns A sweetened pain With each crack their voice refines The Hunger calls and we align! [ VII. The Breaking Point ] Teeth shattered… Crowns dissolved… My mind is lost And will absolved I hear their call Their voice is mine The Hunger claims All thoughts aligned!
