Track 1 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrit.
Too far to be Remembered
Looking into the past
Is like looking fast
Into the future
I’ve been sifting through truths
Of genealogy and gin
And gynecological irregularities
And preponderance of mystical lands
Lie under the further sands
Even though they slip away
It haunts this day
Well I’m just too far away
To be remembered
My little voice did say
As my visage blurred
Day in day out
A little more
Night into keeping
What you do
Day in day out
How oft do I think
About the real
Came from
And not where
We’re going
What do we do
In this temporal flesh
With each other’s empathy
Filled in anguish
If we hanged her onto
That ethical barrier
I mean if we gave a fuck
It’s better to think now than when you can’t think anymore

The Mush and the Might
Track 2 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrit.
The Mush and the Might
The spout of your mouth
Like a river of currency
You say behave
And I say let’s get dirty
I want to breed
Circling our minds
Trouble and temptation
Some say the bold and the beautiful
Are inert elite
I just say go fuck yourself
Cause the people who care
Are better everywhere
Sacrosanct silver and grime
When out of the sorrow’s song
Long flung you brung
You better run before you get killed
But the hole in the ground
Has already been filled
With the mush and the might
Of a sorrowful sight
Of us all pretending to be right
If it taints then it won’t be gold
If it breaks we can no longer hold
Them precious foolery
Along with trivial things
Sounds like every
Embattlement
Sounds like a barrow
Well come bare in mind
And let you see
THE WHORE OF HUMANITY
You better run before you get killed
But the hole in the ground
Has already been filled
With the mush and the might
Of a sorrowful sight
Of us all trying to be right
And we’re wrong

Rift valley
Track 3 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrit.
Rift Valley
You come back to me sans subterfuge
As deluge clings to parched desert sands
It’s way too much and too fast
Aghast the rivers flashed flood
And the waters are 33 grasping hands deep
To have and to keep
To hold and to know
To bring down the pomp and glamour
And burn change the three ring show
With the big top all aglow
The Circus Maximus is the poignant kiss
Well what’s become of
Stuttered to no avail and the mast and sail
Inflates as billow we fall upon the pillow of grass
Me and this fallible lass
With up skirt and down dress
With arched curves we confess
We’re omnivoric whores
We’re human stars amongst scores
We’re gluttonous fasters
We’re servants and we’re masters
We’re healed sores gaping fresh anew
Like whatever plasters the sobered glue
Of red white deepest black and blue
Oh fuck the onslaught slew the spirit flew
Just to test its wings and rally
Despite hoops and flaming rings
The human heart it sings

God Damned You Charred Earth
Track 4 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrit.
God Damned You Charred Earth
I did not even know that we may die
Collecting caveats hence bodies
That ply their way to the sky
Rhyme and reason is a failing season
Dreary a dark lost frost
I crossed Lethe with Styx a fire to burn
And then I struck a match
God damned you charred Earth
It burned for what it’s worth
For icing on the cake I shake him down
And his face is planted firm
Beneath the matted muck this stupid fuck
Thinks 100 grand is gonna stop me
From silencing him and his sperm
The one grandest of truths
I just found out
Is each and every one of us does die
Reaching for money
A blank check blank stare
What the fuck do we care
I did not even know that we may die
Neglecting caveats in your inner thigh
The bodies that ply
Reaching for money
Blank check blank stair
What the fuck do we care

Retreat Down the Long Haul
Track 5 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrit.
Retreat Down the Long Haul
Been being sown up
Under the stitches
Been scratching off all my riches
Been digging ditches deeper, further
With the loins of my britches
And yet I still haven’t found
A taste for above ground
To be sliding within great sleep’s fold
Of nation-hood yourself
Get prepared for unnerving sites
And frights of passage
The tales the rails
The horse’s hooves
Are the best of glues
To tie and bind the mind
Until we guess its moves
Let’s start being fucking kind

Topography
Track 6 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrit.
Topography
So it brings account with the growing shade
What does it mean what hath god rotten made
We opened the window and even beckoned indeed
That the succubus was Lorealei
Yeah, that’s our speed
Back to what we brought to the killing fields
Crescent swords and crosses on shields
We slaughtered and foddered and blundered
Then laundered in blood
We questioned the other’s purity
Then we rolled around in mud
Cause I want to get me more
Do what, do you want to get now
You want to get more Gitmo
You want to have
But none of us wants to give anymore

What Are You Looking For
Track 7 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrit.
What Are You Looking For
What are you looking for
There is not much I would not do
Like a cornered animal wild
That never breaks through
The tethering cords piled soft and high
Velvet on the threshing bedroom floorboards
Your tongue is dual swords
Slicing
This isn’t right
This isn’t wrong
This isn’t anything
That makes everyone’s life longer
Tell in passion
Even day’s illusion foolery
Stand down
We don’t
You don’t look
We don’t leap
Ahh
What are you looking for
There is not much I would not do
Like a cornered animal wild
That never breaks through
The tethering cords piled soft and high
Velvet on the threshing bedroom floorboards
Your tongue is dual swords
Slicing and cutting
Our vows of exchange

Forage
Track 8 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrit.
Forage
Nights in black satin
Sheets of rain in velvet pleats
Pain the flesh carnival
With choice repeats
The crop cracks the time
And bites the sex
With dank dark beats
Lick suck
Turn your other cheek and let me fuck
Taste spaced
Together we both go down on her luck
Then slow we have ours to go on and on
Naked flesh naked flame
It reeks of danger
When everyone knows
Each other’s name
Masked naked in mesh
From Istanbul to Marrakech
The damsel and the dame
Deeper deeper down
Flinch twist
Your pussy’s lips
Are the only ones she’s kissed
Give an inch resist
Our lives are vapid
As the salient mist

Track 9 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrit.
Carnal Gethsemene
If since before we were born we fought against millions
Just for a chance to reach the wall
On a spearheaded long shot civilians
Ovulating lady
May I ask you to dance
Wounded I came
Lay beside me learn your name
Wounded I came
How don’t we take it to go
Face down down roll on missy
Hey June Bug tow the line
To Jupiter lead the way
Pay first speak second
Down on your knees third
(Thirties and dirty these)
All you’ve heard
Women are prayer for him over there
(Whim and a prayer for hymn over there)
Carnal Gethsemene
With her and me
Since before we’re born we fought against millions
Just for a chance to reach the wall
On a spearheaded long shot civilians ovulating
And now and now
We live amongst billions
Underneath an ignorance pall
That behavior is controlled by reptilian’s brain

Denomination
Track 10 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrit.
Denomination
You better start running in the lengths of time
When we are feeling light
With Mercuriac wings
Feet travel through things
And bodies collapse around
On the chanson* lane Champ-Elysees
We go to hell after triumphing this way
And when bodies die next
That’s got me thinking
Yeah well that’s what’s got me thinking
And then the children here in this world
What will they be
I’m sure the children of the next generation
They don’t what our piles of shit
Like we didn’t want them
Thrust that were upon our ass
When we came to top with little of class
We never knew what instore would befell
Hard to tell
But I’m sure they don’t want any of it
This huge pile of bullshit
We’re aching to give to them
All things come to an end
What they want is to be free
Given a life to be a little human
You’re running now
Get your feet placed firmly on the pavement
Move into the next of square
Cause hell water is a fantasy from there
It’s desert oasis and tragedy
Little beautiful child you ain’t much alive
But when you get old you’ll always regret
That everyone around you sold you such shit
And noone cared enough to give you
The real scoop the real plan
That hardship and high ideals
Are what is human’s hand
Dealt felt black in velvet velour
The overrated heart is to assume that it is pure
It grows wider upon this wrong
And there is love somewhere far away
Don’t let your life go before
You’ve given a chance some more
Hold me tender feel then
Make a stance for romance
Then take the floor
In a dance of parlance
They’ll all adore
St. George’s lance says your rants
Pierce to the core
Of Rosencrantz slide askance
And search for more
Friendship

Man Down For Love
Track 11 from the late December 2009 euphoreador release entitled adrift.
Man Down For Love
I was a simpleton caught in a maelstrom
Tossed pell-mell like a rag doll
From the precipice of hell
I was a blithering fool
Throwing my flailing arms about
Trying to grasp why the whirling detritus
We buy and sell
Adrift in dust
Adrift in dust and sluice
The tether was cut loose
There is no static footing to call home
Oh well, oh well
Oh ancient oracle of Delphi
Where am I in relation to you
I was a naysayer
And privy to inconventionality
So wonder wonder wonder is my fun
Thunder is a clay enclave
Prometheus gave us fire
And I used it to
Perpetuate your desire in you
I was a simpleton caught in
An open box
Tossed pell-mell
I was a class defined
Like a rag doll
Into the things we
Precipice of hell
Encapsulate and call unkind
Throwing my flailing arms about
We are humanity
Whirling detritus
We are humanity
We buy and sell
We are humanity
We are humanity
Adrift in dust

I'm In love
Track 1 from the 1992 Confession of Faith release
As i Hung
I’m in Love
Running through the forest
Bleeding all around
Bodies lay naked
Strewn upon the ground
Running through the graveyard
Running past the tomb
Where love lies dead
Bleeding from her womb
Dieing in this sickness
Where darkness hangs above
My sores are gaping open
For now I’m in love
Running from the vampires
Hiding in the mist
Surrendering my love
For death’s lips I kissed
Running from the woman
Haunting in my head
Chaining me upon love’s
Forsaken bed
Oh, I’m in love

I Pray for Sleep
I’m twisting away
Like yesterday
I reached out my hand for her
And saw her hand on mine
And saw nothing but a ghost
Whose bitter-sweet lips
Tasted like wine
I saw the ghost from afar
Whose name I know not
Watching her eyes
Transfixed on me
Her mouth drawn and taut
I pray for sleep if only short
But I’m drawn close to her
I close my eyes to wish her gone
The ghost of mine in splendour
Help me I scream
To the world growing cold
As I reached up to grab the ghost
And found my own soul cold
I found it cold

The Rain Will Never Cease to Fall
Track 3 from the 1992 Confession of Faith release
As i Hung
The Rain Will Never Cease to Fall
Whispered Words on the wind
And I was not the one
Softly fold and softly slide
Underneath the sun
Like ancient walls and towers
Or birds that fall in flight
Creeping words and creeping thoughts
Slither through the night
The rain will never cease to fall
The sun will never shine
But in this very dark my dear
I still can’t find the time
Falling tears and pedals
Shatter on my floor
Hungry men and children
Pounding on my door

As i Hung
As I Hung
As I hung by my neck in the bottomless pit
The words which you said that didn’t mean shit
Came back to me as I saw your face
Burn with disgust in this unholy place
I fought and I gasped for every last breath
Rejecting the fear and welcoming death
My phallic image being casted by light
Forgetting all else and recalling that night
That night I saw you dance in the fire
When my heart yearned for your every desire
I desired to see and to taste your skin
To hold you tight like a siamese twin
I can’t I screamed as the thin rope frayed
As I fell in your heart grotesque and decayed
Grotesque and decayed

There is a Lady Sweet and Kind
Track 5 from the 1992 Confession of Faith release
As i Hung
There is a lady Sweet and Kind
There is a Lady sweet and kind,
Was never face so pleased my mind;
I did but see her passing by,
And yet I love her till I die.
Her gesture, motion, and her smiles,
Her wit, her voice my heart beguiles,
Beguiles my heart, I know not why,
And yet I love her till I die.
Cupid is wingèd and doth range,
Her country so my love doth change:
But change she earth, or change she sky,
Yet will I love her till I die.

The Sacrament
Track 1 from the 1993 Confession of Faith release
The Sacrament
The Sacrament
You tell me this is love I feel
Beside your nakedness I knee
Entwined in this sickening bliss
And praying for my saviors kiss
You say salvation will never die
Beneath your naked skin I lie
I know you see the tears I shed
But laughingly you turn your head
You fuck me for the love of skin
How worthless I know my life has been
You bathe me then in love’s disease
That pulls me to my helpless, my helpless knees
Chained upon your lonely bed
You fuck me while the tears I shed
Cloud my eyes that know not love
That see salvation far, so far above
Please taste death upon my tongue
For it’s by you that love was hung
So cold my soul upon the floor
Raping love you made a whore
Should we really be in love
"The Sacrament" This is part 3 of the winter 1995 Confession of Faith performance at Ground Zero in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This performance was done during the time COF was negotiating their way onto the Triple X Records compilation "Dim View of the Future". Dark and ominous are crutial elements in a COF performance. This song is from the ep "The Sacrament".
'The Sacrament' This is very Confession of Faith, dark lighting, the intense aural, industrial cascade. This song is from The Sacrament ep. The crowd seems very intense due to the fact that this was performed in the lunchroom for the 1993 Jefferson High School Battle of the Bands and most of the students probably hadn't seen or heard music like this.

The Sacrament
The Sacrament
You tell me this is love I feel
Beside your nakedness I knee
Entwined in this sickening bliss
And praying for my saviors kiss
You say salvation will never die
Beneath your naked skin I lie
I know you see the tears I shed
But laughingly you turn your head
You fuck me for the love of skin
How worthless I know my life has been
You bathe me then in love’s disease
That pulls me to my helpless, my helpless knees
Chained upon your lonely bed
You fuck me while the tears I shed
Cloud my eyes that know not love
That see salvation far, so far above
Please taste death upon my tongue
For it’s by you that love was hung
So cold my soul upon the floor
Raping love you made a whore
Should we really be in love

Like Judas
Track 2 from the 1993 Confession of Faith release
The Sacrament
Like Judas
By your purity rise us all and from your sickening love I fall
I pray for love but from love I fall
Weep my child in this sickened delight
And pray salvation to my endless night
For over life I chose this power
For the taste of love had turned sour
You have turned away from me your head
And left me drowning in the tears I shed
Like a dying child to you I clung
Wanting someone I had hung
I’m so diseased I’m so diseased
Will you still love me
With a kiss like Judas I betray
My salvation consumed in decay
I know I was so sickening
I know love I will yearn
As I fell from grace
You did turn
You have watched me slowly as I bled
My sickening love from your withered bed
And all I love does seem to die
So here alone I do cry
Please dear god my eyelids close
I gave my love a blackened rose
She took this flower and turned so old
Love to me is so cold
So weep my child is this sickened delight
And pray salvation to my endless night
For over life I chose this power
For the taste of love had turned sour

Cain
Track 3 from the 1993 Confession of Faith release
The Sacrament
Cain
How I lust
As your life slips away
And all that is left
Is the stench of decay
Staring down into the pit of damnation
Knowing I’ll never find my salvation
But through he last drowning breath
This hunger I fill for I am your death
God save my soul
My love lasts forever
Shrouded in sackcloth
She now stands
For I am the blessed
And I am the damned
Thriving off her tears of joy
I come not in love
But come to destroy
The woman who welcomed my as her guest
That now lies twisted bleeding and undressed
God save my soul
My love lasts forever
Because of Cain I am grotesque
For I am the damned and I am the blessed
The cerements of immortality embrace
All who are of this kindred race
Given the kiss that longs the day
That buries me deep in the stench of decay
God save me

Hallowed
Track 4 from the 1993 Confession of Faith release
The Sacrament
Hallowed
Falling from the face of god
Pulling my heart into despair
Isolation leaves me cold
So empty are the hands of prayer
The hands of prayer they bleed my skin
And pull me underneath again
Into your lips that softly say
Fuck me once again I stray
So delicate inside your skin
The hands of prayed they call again
To your ears that hear no pain
Praying are the hands in vain
Shattered are the memories
That slowly sink into despair
Placing faith in empty words
Forsaken are the hands of prayer
'Hallowed' What is amusing here is the school's mascot and decorations as well as the very standard guitar solo that is heard before COF performs. This is very Confession of Faith, dark lighting, the intense, aural, industrial cascade. This song is from The Sacrament ep. The crowd seems very intense due to the fact that this was performed in the High School lunchroom for the 1993 Jefferson High School Battle of the Bands and most of the students probably hadn't seen or heard music like this.
This is Confession of Faith performing to victory at the 1993 Minnesota Highschool Battle of the Bands at the Mirage. COF took sole first place. 2 bands tied for second place and 2 bands tied for third but COF one by themselves. What is amusing is that after COF performed, they immediately left the competition only finding out that they had won while they were returning their gear at home. The prize was free studio recording time. The songs we played were 'Hallowed' and 'Dominatrix'.
