about

With ‘Venom’ you enter the 2nd chapter of Kassogtha’s concept album rEvolve, a chapter that will take you into the darkest parts of its journey.

The band elaborate:
“’Venom’ is about helplessness and self-hatred, when nothing is controllable anymore, when we’ve decided to surrender to the poison controlling all our behaviours. The song tells of wanting to abandon ourselves to another reality, to forget the present, letting the destructive forces in our life settle in, deliberately. All this while realising that it’s wrong, and hating ourselves for letting it happen.

“To musically match the darkness of the lyrics, ‘Venom’ relies on its dark and heavy atmosphere in place of instrumental technicality. Ultimately, the song is a mix of all our childhood influences, channelling the angry and sombre attitudes of the likes of Korn and Slipknot (Yes, we are 90’s kids).”

lyrics

Swallow my thoughts
Slough your way through my soul

Wash my sickly body of all its purity
Come to me
I will obey

Letting your wisdom glare
upon everything I know
My misty soul will follow you
every time you come to me
Wash my fate of all hope

I’m standing straight behind the fence
Like a trapped pig waiting for its fate

I am waiting for you now

I know
It was only a pilgrimage
that would bring me to you

You’re my master
Feed on my anger

My haughtiness blinds me
Giving you a chance
To pervade me
With your bitter, twisted lies

I’m standing straight behind the fence
Like a trapped pig waiting for its fate
(I am waiting for you)
I am waiting for you
To stop my soulful cries
(my soulful cries)
Like a newborn child
Hoping to be warmed
(I’m waiting for you)

Torture
Obsession
Terror
Addiction

I see the light flicker
Slowly envenoming unscrupulously
My life

I hate you
Horrendous venom
I hate you
You who let it in

Now
I am waiting for you now
Wash my fate of all hope
Now
I am waiting for you now
I will obey

Swallow my thoughts
Slough your way through my soul
Wash my sickly body
I will obey
