Abandoned

Grace:
Hear in me, words of sorrow
Shamefully forged in sin
Fear as my watchful reminder
That lord you’ve abandoned your children
Why?

Can you see me?
I kneel before you
Can you hear me?
Calling for you
Can you know me?
I’m your creation
Can you love me?
When I need you?
Here I am
Dying again
No one answers
Silence greets me
Can’t you hear me?
Won’t you hear my prayers?
Where are you?

I need you God
Slipping away, my voice is the cry of a sinner estranged from your grace
Forsaken and shamed, my life is a penance to pay for drifting away

Can you see me?
I die before you
Can you hear me?
Crying for you
Can you know me?
Your aberration
Can you love me?
When I’ve failed you?

I need you God
Slipping away, my voice is the cry of a sinner estranged from your grace
Forsaken and shamed, my life is a penance to pay for drifting away

The Drug:
I am your protector; I’ll be your provider of moments and memories
You’re only connector to a world of pain, to the sky that drops you to your knees
I am your mentor, I’ll be the center of your heart that carries a disease (and that’s me…)
I’ll be the objector to every hope of freedom that you could ever dream

Grace:
See me; dying before you, pleading to leave me; rid me of my needing you
See me; screaming in silence, bring me salvation, free me of my thirst for you

The Drug:
Abandon your creator; succumb to your berator with open and trusting eyes
I will be your savior, protect you from the rapture that’s already in your mind
You are his failure; he’ll be the center of your hell that I will redeem (and in me…)
You’ll find the danger, the sacred heart of pleasure that you will never receive

about

Fanticide Brooklyn, New York

Fanticide has always been a one man band by me (Adami). I found myself making music that is more cinematic and conceptual in nature. Eventually in 2012, it became clear to me that my music is becoming more and more soundtrack like. I decided to write a concept album and found it to be the most natural writing I had ever done. Albums will be rock operas/concept albums. ... more
