We reach
Out for
Hands that push back
Part of
The mob
Rules for attack
What do
I see
Out from your eyes?
Just a
Good man
Dead from your lies
Just smile and pretend that everything’s fine
As we sink below the waterline
Sit down
Keep still
Do as we say
Don’t speak
Dumb sheep
Just walk away
Stand up
Fight back
Blood can be lost
As long
As we
Acknowledge the cost
Just smile and pretend that everything’s fine
There is no use in simply holding a sign
As we sink below the waterline

Deep breath, start again
There is nothing to lose
The cost of your complacency
Will leave a silent bruise
Footprints upon the backs
Of the ones that they oppress
Do you think that you’ll be missed
When they come for your last breath?
Chrous
I don’t care
Doesn’t matter if I look away
Anyway…
Tune out, fall in place
Tow the company line
The cost of their security
Is the loss of yours and mine
Cry out, demand a change
Imagine what we could do
One voice, a massive fist
That would punctuate our view
Chorus
I don’t care
Doesn’t matter if I have my say
Anyway…
Sit back, just relax
There’s nothing left to fight
The cost of our passivity
Was the voice that was our right
Are you happy on your couch
In front of an enormous screen?
If not just flip the switch
And enjoy a different scene…

FirstForgiveness New York, New York
Started as Necrolytic Goat Converter, only to realize when you're one guy you can pretty much have as many bands as you
want.
Still one guitar (Yamaha PAC611) plugged into one amp (Line6 Spider III) plugged into GarageBand via a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 bought used from a friend.
Thanks for checking out one man working through his demons, badly, through the music that he loves.

Shadows of Ancestors

This album is everything you could want from a twilight fauna album. Dark and heavy and Appalachian as fuck. Folky, moss covered, dew dripping insanity. It’s absolutely perfect.

Twilight Fauna/Jennifer Christensen Split
by Twilight Fauna
supported by 9 fans who also own “A Progress of Sorts EP”
Two completely opposite bands come together to make a very unique split. Highly recommended for both the dark classical side and the dark ambient / Appalachian folk black metal side.

Heart breaking. It pulls you along an awful tale that only leaves you feeling worse. Haunts you afterwards and beckons you to play it again.

A great mix of styles from doom to black. An impressive debut. Emotive and engaging from start to finish. Also, a great Katatonia cover in there as well.
