Audio Log I 00:45
I have arrived at the D.I.E. to further direct the shutdown. Everything is going well except that it seems one of the patients has gone missing. Our new objective is to locate Patient Zero.
2.
Patient Zero 04:14
Thrown to the wolves like they wanted you dead Lost and afraid like you fell from the sky Don’t let these voices slip into your head Halfway through nightfall and drained of your light Panicked you search for the high ground Unknowingly stirring the creatures therein Which voice will speak? Clearing his throat Screaming inside but outside in silent Where am I? “Don’t let me down, you’re in control Bring us to safety or die in this hole” And the blackouts grow stronger As I grasp for my focus But I’m losing my grip I try to force myself to wake And I can tell by the shadows That what comes now may haunt me And I can feel its energy holding me back I refuse to take the passenger seat Of my own fucking body I will not accept defeat I’d like to see it stop me I feel it creeping closer, reaching behind my eyes But now I see the figure; it’s part of my own mind Burn these trees, let smoke unleash Signal help but not for me Burn these trees, let smoke be seen Signal help but not for me

Dissociation 01:19

3XFP 05:14
Useless, hopeless, failed experiment Slipping back from a paralyzed state I am afraid of what I’ve done No control over rage The anger consumes me Forced to watch a voyeur view of hatred I am miniscule I am scaled down to nothing So I run from myself And I keep running until my legs turn to stone I feel the tension in the air It’s creeping steadily towards me This overwhelming strength reaches out Splitting me in two, in two Feeling faint, I lose my balance The ringing masked the silence I push past the shadows in my eyes to no avail Wishing to redirect my life, this force persists Feel this pressure building inside of me Taking every last of my energy The serum burns, “We Are Failure” Darkness embracing me Watching my life destroyed Dissected at the seams Forever I’ll fight, forever I’ll dream I am one, I am her But who am I? Lost identity, trapped inside myself Who is he? Is that me? Watch as/I destroy/That’s not me Hold on/To the hope/I’ll be free Tied down/To the ground/Try to stop Reaching/Out for help/I cannot I’m trapped in myself

Audio Log II 01:03
It seems that Doctor James Butcher, the head doctor on the D.I.E. has overdosed Patient Zero with the serum, and is the reason for his escape. We need to retrieve Patient Zero at any cost. He must not escape.

“Welcome to the world’s largest one man circus” The largest one man circus now awaits The truth beyond this curtain seals your fate “Just sit back and relax, cheer and enjoy the show Let us do all the work, let our presence be known” Why’s the man in the hat so familiar? Why are all of these faces my own? I feel like I am chained to a pillar Knife to my throat and shut lips sewn I can’t breathe Let me go, I can’t breathe I think I need to leave Fall flat on my back, I’m floating in the sky A beam of sunshine peaks and brushes my eye I am blind, I am fine Stop! “Death follows your footsteps” Why? “Blood” Mine? “Flowing” When? “Now” What? “Feeding” Who? “The Butcher’s life” Can’t escape from this I am sinking deeper in No reason to try “No false prophecies All that I show you is true I am everything” “Focus on my voice This is the sound of your own Follow it, trust me” I stand to see millions of me standing Staring at me and waiting to die “The Butcher is coming for you The Butcher is changing to you” Out of the crowd, the Butcher grabs my throat I struggle to save myself A Stranger breaks the chaos and saves me From the crown of death encasing We run to safety shrouded in mist When safe the Stranger tells me this, “We are failure, save yourself! The Butcher’s blade will bring you hell!” As I leave the Butcher grabs me And tosses me to the seam Now I fall for eternity An endless falling dream
7.
Intent 04:37
Wake up to my own death “Listen to me, I can save you Do not give in, salvation exists” Will you be there to save me from hell? Or will you bring your hell to me? Will you save my life or leave me to die? Is your salvation just a lie? Are you the killer in my mind? It’s like I’m sinking deeper Inside the shell of myself Emptiness consuming everything All hope feels lost I feel my energy leave me I feel my life start to fade “This is what you need to do” Do I feed into this madness or fade away? “Listen to my voice” I can’t believe the things you say “Believe what I say” I’m gonna die here anyway “Do not give in now” I’d rather die than fight through this “It’s not over yet” I’m sick of trying I’ll drive a stake right through my heart To make sure none of you can live My whole world has fallen apart So all our lives will end with this “Don’t you even think about killing us all now” Side to side, swinging Beating down a sea of people A million faces, and all of them mine If I kill you, I kill myself “This ends now” I fade away from this place in order to live Cold settles in, shadows grow I dissolve into nothing I fade away

We’ve burned the forest to smoke out Patient Zero. If he’s still on the facility’s land, he will be dead or retrieved by nightfall.

Creation: A 08:46
“Can’t you see, this reality Is a dream made to seal the seam? Block the pain, be alive again See the truth waiting here for you You’re a host for a million souls Brought to life by the serum’s light Come with me and you’ll finally see We’re alive and we need to die” I see the future looking bleaker by the second Inside this hollow shell of confusion and despair I am afraid to lose myself This world was built of fear, Hate, pain, emptiness, stress, and suffering “There is a falsehood in your confrontation Death is not the end result You will lend your body to my apparition And bring the Butcher to a halt” My skin is crawling I feel the forces pulling us together I am disintegrating I am melding, we are one, and I am all Inside my mind I feel the culmination Two sources molding into one whole being that Will survive this endeavor and breed new life Has this been my destiny? Save the world from agony? Is this what I need to do? These forces pull me apart I feel my consciousness tearing Assimilating into this new life I am now a forgotten soul “You will never be forgotten Just placed in purgatory to wait for your new life A life without pain, a life alone with your sanity Without us you can thrive Live a life worth living But if the Butcher lives, we all die And the world will suffer” A fight to the death with one contender A fine line between friend or foe The Doctor promised me I’d get better The serum freezes me like snow Now I become an army of tortured souls “We are failure” “The time has come to save the world from the Butcher Death to his soul We are the bastard creations of a madman From failure we born” “Ringleaders change and masters lose reign Of the animals they enslave The Butcher must die so the world can survive And our host can live his life” “We are failure”

about

Creation: A is the first album of a multi-part concept from the Long Island progressive death metal band More of Myself to Kill. This science fiction story reflects on the inner complexities of a subject from a failed experiment conducted by a classified government project, known as the D.I.E. The subject, Patient Zero, has a multiple personality serum forced upon him via injection, causing adverse side effects. This album follows the journey that Patient Zero embarks on in his struggle for salvation from the threats that surround him. In order to achieve this, he must fight for control against clashing internal identities and unknown external perils.
