[Verse 1: Dani Winter-Bates]
I knew that I wanted to
But I'd rather forget than bury you
Six straight days in these walls
I swear I could see straight through
[Pre-Chorus: Dani Winter-Bates & Tom Prendergast]
White noise, it's drowning
My throat is burning
Tired of feeling the guilt
From this mind I don't own
[Chorus: Tom Prendergast & Cody Frost]
Takes no courage
Cast the stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony
What we unearth is
A truth we keep burying
[Verse 2: Dani Winter-Bates & Cody Frost, both]
They call me The Carcass King
I relish in death and the pain it brings
Give me the nails to hammer in me
Or tear out my heart to stem the disease
I confide in the darkness
As if it's my witness
Falling to sickness
Violеntly slipping from my existence
[Chorus: Tom Prendergast & Cody Frost]
Takеs no courage
Cast the stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony
[Breakdown: Dani Winter-Bates]
What we unearth is
A truth we keep burying
The Carcass King
God of Nothing, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Dani Winter-Bates & Tom Prendergast]
White noise, it's drowning
My throat is burning
Tired of feeling the guilt
From this mind I don't own
[Chorus: Tom Prendergast & Cody Frost]
Takes no courage
Cast the stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony
What we unearth is
Not the life we crave
Fear resurfaced
We must comply, obey
[Bridge: Dani Winter-Bates & Tom Prendergast]
Look for purpose
A way to keep the wolves at bay
The Carcass King
God of Nothing
[Chorus: Tom Prendergast]
Takes no courage
Cast that stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony
Takes no courage
Cast that stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony
[Outro: Tom Prendergast]
Takes no courage
Cast that stone and pray
There's no worship
Only irony

Dani Winter-Bates:
Cody Frost is an unbelievable human being, just a force to be reckoned with. An artist in the truest sense, I think. The producer we were working with, Dan [Weller], is Cody’s producer as well. When he showed me her stuff, it was just like this unbelievable level of vocals. ‘The...
