    A FAREWELL RELEASE FROM VIRGIN WITCH

    Since the last half of 2021, we began work on our debut album. Since this was the current state of the album since VW disbanded, we have decided to release it in it's current state onto Bandcamp, YouTube, and Streaming Services. It's a shame we never got to finish and release this album at the perfect standard, but it's still a look into what could have been. Due to Caleb's vocal injury in December 2022, we never got around to recording vocals for some of the tracks, So we're not going to release those. We only had 5 of the tracks mixed and 2 of those were mastered. (Was just getting ready to release Bone as a single)

    Nonetheless, although it was never finished. We hope you enjoy Magnum Opus (2023).
    Purchasable with gift card

Verse 1 As the sky falls The hollowed mind, terrorised and raped Slowly rotting away Dicing with death with every step Unholy tyrants, sterilised my innocence I've learnt that society has left me crawling Notoriety in my own misery A sprawling frame, bereft of hue Quietly creaking from branch to branch Breakdown 1 (First Half) Devoid of life Following closely Smiles melt and drip into Blood soaked wax Chorus 1 This pragmatic belief Cemented in limbo A static veil In coerced perception An immense deception Of his corruption Verse 2 Nails through my hands Lurid beings dragging the rope around my neck Comatose, yet awake Detained my values Obscured from vision My knees are giving out yet I'm Comatose, yet awake Chorus 2 This pragmatic belief Cemented in limbo A static veil In coerced perception An immense deception Of his corruption

Bone 03:13
Verse 1 I'm wasting my time Dreaming in blissful sublime Solitary thoughts to calm This dismissal of enmity Abyssal depths of desire So empty and harrowing Prior knowledge of a life Echoing a hate so potent In a solemn attempt to Rupture escape from this torture That blossoms and withers Right down to my bones Verse 2 I wake to see nothings changed Lost an element of decadence Yet I'm estranged from the irrelevant Unknowns that send a shiver down my spine Scratching at the door in the hopes it opens To a world worth living in Detaching my mind from the hell I created But it's all so useless Breakdown But it's all so useless Breakdown 2 The demons dig into my face Tearing my skin to try and inhabit my soul My hate to be the one who drew them in Telling me I should have lived a better life I should have lived a better life But it's all so useless
3.
Crisis 03:42
Verse 1 Open this door because I've got a Bone to pick with you I'm biting, I'm clawing Does the sound not cloud your view? Unspoken phrases yet I can hear you All too well You're dragging, me further Down the hall where he sits so still Break Necrosis of flesh A murmer I heard From the mouth of my mother Who lay cold amongst the birds Psychosis, denial Murder ain't the word But the others, they'll tell you All that I've withheld Verse 2 I've told you, she's breathing What else is there to say? Take a look in the casket If you won't take my word Plasma seeps through the floorboards Yet incomprehensible words persist It shoots at me, from every direction As I tear at my fists Verse 3 Crying out your name In this twisted game of cat and mouse But I see now, what you proclaim The crisis of your messiah
4.
Pressure 01:24
Verse 1 This pressures intense It's overflowing and I Don't know where to run My emotions are running high and I Reach out for a hand But the motions were planned Behind my back Bridge And it's trying to rear it's ugly head Breakdown Shedding my skin, to get away from me I swore to you This pressures intense

Verse 1 I tried to tell you I heard it breathe from the grass Supplied the taste, from it's lungs A myth to surpass underneath Sighed out, how could it be? I thought you believed All your blood and tears? Get away with me Come leave this life behind This offering To usurp your soul You're testing my patience You're slowing me down If I can't come with you Then you're coming with me Chorus 1 Biennial, hell on earth Til death do us part We are reborn in the leaves Eternal rest, I bid farewell Be torn asunder Ravaged by the blades Verse 2 Our muscles pierced The fruit entwined with our nerves A constant bliss Not known to this world My knuckles cracked Defined by their thorns A constant abyss Not known to this world Chorus 2 Biennial, hell on earth Til death do us part We are reborn in the leaves Eternal rest, I bid farewell Be torn asunder Ravaged by the blades Bridge A constant bliss Not known to this world A constant abyss Not known to this world Break Til death do us part Til death do us part Breakdown Til death do us part Forever bleeding Vines control our bones Forever hunting Chorus 3 Biennial, hell on earth Til death do us part We are reborn in the leaves Eternal rest, I bid farewell Be torn asunder Ravaged by the blades Outro Til death do us part Forever bleeding

Verse 1 If God is my witness would he pave a way from the pain that breathes opaque? Resting in my grave eyes shut, yet I feel them glaring through the dirt And it pierces me with my eyes wide open I hear his call grow louder deafening me Pre-Chorus Blood Crawling out of my ears Overpowered my fears Stunned With my head in my hands My vision blurred into one Soul Ripped from me Chorus 1 Nephilim Sing me to sleep Flood me of all I want to see Fantasy Dreaming awake I'm crawling away Verse 2 I stood at the gates of heaven Staring at what appeared to be the sun If it meant seeing you again I'll live an eternity in hell Chorus 2 Nephilim Sing me to sleep Flood me of all I want to see Fantasy Dreaming awake I'm crawling away I'm crawling away Pre-Breakdown I dreamt you lived in my heart Breakdown Blood Crawling out of my ears Overpowered my fears Stunned With my head in my hands Chorus 3 Nephilim Sing me to sleep Flood me of all I want to see Fantasy Dreaming awake I'm crawling away I'm crawling away Outro I dreamt you lived in my heart
8.
Verse 1 With a spell in my palm I establish a border A myth in the form Of a hoarder To bring to pass A scythe to his leader In which he ever so needs her Breakdown The essence of her soul That swims through her skin Verse 2 With a spell in my palm I establish a border A myth in the form Of a hoarder To bring to pass A scythe to his leader In which he ever so needs her Verse 3 Lost and mutated Corrupted by her blood He finally knows What life is about So now it's his time to Drown Verse 4 Hysterically thrashing And gasping for air There really is no need for Lashing out at the waves This stampede of water Is pulling you deeper Isn't this what you wanted? Essence of the soul Never felt so harshly

End (DEMO) 10:16
Verse 1 I'm down on my luck Trapped within my head It's a game I knew you play So I let you breathe me in All the bugs under my skin All the words you say struck a nerve Are you happy to watch me cry? Smell of my flesh makes you tuck your tail and Chorus 1 Run Trying to get away from me I smell your hate I know you're coming for me Spineless gods, open their mouths Bet you think that you reached the end and Run Before it's way to late Oh, but I smell the fear Spineless gods, open their mouths Just to swallow their pride Bridge 1 The nile flows with blood north to south Inside is a world to witness You smile and turn, to face the exit But you ran too far away from me Breakdown 1 I cut you down Limb from limb I won't let you get away What have I done? You cut me down Skin and bone This was never my fault I should've let you get away Chorus 2 Run Trying to get away from me I smell your hate I know you're coming for me Spineless gods, open their mouths Bet you think that you reached the end and Run Before it's way too late Oh, but I smell the fear Spineless gods, open their mouths Just to swallow their pride Build-Up I'm trying, so hard, to capture this feeling I'm trying, so hard, to capture this feeling I'm trying, so hard, to capture this feeling I'm trying, so hard, to capture this feeling Breakdown Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Chorus 3 Run Trying to get away from me I smell you love I know you're coming for me Spineless gods, open their mouths Bet you think that you reached the end and Run Before it's way too late Oh, but I smell the fear Spineless gods, open their mouths Just to swallow their pride Bridge 2 The nile flows with blood north to south Inside is a world to witness You smile and turn, to face the exit But you ran too far away from me Outro But you ran too far away from me But you ran too far away from me But you ran too far away from me But you ran too far away from me But you ran too far away from me But you ran too far away from me But you ran too far away from me But you ran too far away from me NO! you ran too far away from me
