Here we are again... In the same old place we started in Like a movement forward; stepping back (or) Hoarding emptiness to fill the lack Why this war inside? Pierce unholy one, til life expires When I thought that you had died... You've returned! Undead embrace! Chained to the cursed, but I've the key Pulled the stake from heart to feel your teeth I, who once was strong, again so weak Loving all that is life, but death I seek Why this war inside? Pierce unholy one, til life expires When I thought that you had died... You've returned! Undead embrace!

Stockholm 04:51
Been imprisoned for so long That the cage became home sweet home Once a terror in the veins Now the subject of love's refrain Twisted affection Loyal to the pain Courting destruction Racing to the flame Chains are broken on the floor Craving still to be called abhorred Twisted affection Loyal to the pain Courting destruction Racing to the flame Child in darkness My love has been told The one that you cling to Despises your soul Twisted affection Loyal to the pain Courting destruction Racing to the flame

Bloodletting 03:26
Some bleed out to family Some bleed out to friends Some bleed not a single drop infection settles in I bleed out on paper Pain flowing from my pen And if it's never looked upon... At least it's not within

Death 04:54
I'm here to tell you it's true I have died Soul conviction, soul confession In the waves of my mind Flowing, everlasting My life is nothing, but my soul, my soul I'm here to tell you it's true I have died Soul conviction, soul confession (yeah, yeah) In the ways of my mind Flowing, everlasting My life is nothing, but my soul is everything (yeah) In death, I live In death, I live In death, I live In death, I live Take my soul right now, evil one The blood that's spilled is not mine It's been won by the Son Grave, where is your victory? And death, where is your sting? You cannot defeat me 'Cause I have victory, victory In death, I live In death, I live In death, I live In death, I live Come on take me Come on take me now To those mansions To the sky Reign, Reign Reign, Reign In death, I live In death, I live In death, I live In death, I live ©1993 Sometime Sunday

Descend 06:44
So lost! Lost and falling fast Aligned with that which once was past Sealed with angel's kiss Stained with black abyss Proud before you fall Proud before you... Let it slip away Defying; beating chest at sky As if you, yourself, will never die But life, as the flower, fades Under Almighty's gaze Proud before you fall ...Let it slip away ...God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble... humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up

Thanks to all the friends and family who contributed to or helped make this happen (whether in actual contribution or constructive feedback).

Special thanks to Valdina Berryman (Mom) for the use of her artwork; my long time friend Matt Anderson for laying down a sweet solo for I.N.I.L; my sister Keisha Thompson and my niece Cecilia Miller for their vocal contributions on this album.

Thanks to Randy "Trog" Michaud for believing in my music enough to add me to the roster of the incredible wellspring of creativity that is Stone Groove Records...all the promotional stuff, including play on Stone Grooves & Deep Cuts radio...the use of the Mystoric track "Inertia" for "Fading"...and tons more.

Thanks to Dan Lively for letting me pick his brain about guitar tone when I first started FS.
Also, thanks to Peter "Py-Tor" Shurtleff (the other half of the Freakshow) for helping Trog and I work on t-shirt designs and album covers (not to mention the Sometime Sunday cover song and art was his idea)...and so much more.

Finally, thanks to the few who supported FS when I first started. You know who you are and you have my original 3 song EP...I really appreciate you guys!
