Over-regulating a precarious freedom Afraid of life or death Deathcount as a primary target of control: Keeping us all safe and dead Stop, wait, slow down, have a pill Think before you feel anything Stop, wait, stay down, be still Think before you feel your own thing And If you were to live, they’d keep you in a cage And If you were to die, they’d say you didn’t want to live We were not meant for this stillborn era If we have to come back, may it be 500 years ago A world ruled by geriatrics, taming the youth Fuck life expectancy Shouldn’t be how long, should be how free one has lived Machines have taken over Luxuries acting as so many prison bars, Our freedom was traded for candy flowing down the bridge

Pushing a rock up a mountain: Down it rolls Stranger in an estranged world Struggling through life for Purpose, creating or filling Void: Suicide vs Belief Or to live without Appeal As an Absurd Hero Revolt - Holding on to a righteous Revolt Freedom - Through acceptance of what is Freedom Passion - For a subjective sense of Passion Judged for being a crime to his peers, not what he did, what they think he feels She asked If I loved her and so I said no The sky became green, and so then it was night I said yes so i wouldn't have to be talking no more I felt at home in my prison cell and its nightmares A Prince's Quest for the Absolute – Orchestrating his own assassination If the World is as I am, may it greet me with Cries of Hate To refuse Suicide, and to fire Once more One more time - Two more times - Three more times - Fo(u)r More

Section 753 06:04
Inmate #666, but I know that I did not do it Wrong place at the wrong time, someone had to be the one to blame Declared a dangerous offender, they threw away the key A country’s deadliest revenge, section 753 Still I pay for this crime Indeterminate sentence, random years of false hope I will never get out of here But they’ll make sure I carry that hope Terminated by that sentence, my own cold eternal {…} Now I wonder if I did it, just so it would make sense to be in this hole …and I wonder They found him in Texas, I knew that I did not do it Three more he sent to hell, while I was in this cage of his And now he is on deathrow, no 753 And as he’s being injected, I am finally free …and now I know They found them in New York, turns out that he did not do it But now it’s too late for him, he was needled just yesterday Sent out to his last rest, There was never a key A State’s deadliest revenge: a fault of eternity Injustice… Still I’m here… To yell why…‘Cause I’m here…. And he’s not.

Ordeal: Fire 05:47
Trial of a Noble one, send for the Priest Truth is a fire away Judicum Dei, the accused must stand A micro Reckoning Day All rise, now feel the fear in his eyes Guilty or dead as flesh is burning All rise, now feel the fire in his eyes Soon time to wear the Mourning Ring From a cold prison cell to my faith, nine feet of verity Walking upon the Crimson Path , freedom through her I pray Emma - Ploughshares of Snow All lies, can’t be, no fear in his eyes Witchcraft, the wounds instantly healing All lies, cant be, the peace in his eyes A Heart of Winter, the ploughshares bleeding I pray her, I am her From a cold prison cell to my faith, nine feet of Sanctity

Came from a drunken night between young ghosts A few months inside a poisoned womb, then it was years Loveless feedings became shameless beatings Until they took him away to where they just did not care Bow - the courage to go on... and on Playing an unfair game Escaping through drugs or die hard trying And all the while is this reform, school or jail ? By the time he realized it was freedom Time was running short and escapes much more exp(a/e)nsive Could have been me, wandering empty streets without shelter Looking down at him as he shouldn't be 'cause you're going somewhere or is it where you're coming from ? Looking down at him as it shouldn't be And when he saved your life, did his earn any more value ? Forced in to receive ordered medication Then forced out to clear one room and their conscience Holding his ground receiving what you give Standing tall as just another blind sacrifice Could have been you, wandering empty worlds without memories

ECT against his Will - They said he had no Free Will When he stood his Joke of a Trial - They plead he can't stand Trial Evidence that he behaved Wrong - That he doesn't know Right from Wrong Evidence that he's destroyed by Drugs - That Salvation lies in their Drugs Never Odd or Even - God Saw I was Dog He used to live inside a Dream - For his life haunted his Dream Beaten to Death more than Once - He came back to see if just Once [...] Raised in Hell, he sought for Peace - Departing Truth for Peace Day Last: his Day One Quest - Day Zero: a parallel Anti-Quest Convulsions strikes, existence reversed Sleeping through pain, Awakening, will the Sun set One Last Time ? Waste (half a verse) On and On, Ever Faster - On and On, and then quicker Backwards Repeating instead of Rhyming - Repeating to keep the Clock from Ticking

Ex Cathedra 06:06
…and then there was light, a new form of fright, a prophet from above Wronging the rights, punishing insights, but it’s all out of love Blind faith rising, as guilt heals pleasure I’m a sinner As one as they sing, and kill their nature Why kneel if we’re reaching for Heaven Fighting our deepest feelings to destroy our need for fulfilling existence Engraving our heart ‘till its blood becomes wine, crawling for lenience …and then there was loss, and no peace rivers crossed, so it all turned to stone Watching the rust fading into dust, but it’s all standalone Lord help me Nothing but emptiness Lord take me back when I used to be alive I came and I saw there’s nothing to be seen, no face to the Truth, who am I now ? I got enough guilt to start my own rites, follow me my friends, I am the One …and then there was night, an old form of fright, a prophet from above Wronging the rights, punishing insights, and it’s all out of love

Year 1012, a secret cave No man was ever meant to discover, he entered The Darkness falls on the engraved walls A candlelight that clears a path That leads to knowledge that leads to Eternity Revelations misread, Sacred Psalms unchanted The Truth that misled the World further ‘till the End A one-man raid, it should have failed A treasure beyond his faculty to understand, he thought then The Universe explained in a verse A candlefright that clears a path That leads to knowledge that leads to Insanity As I read these words of arch-wisdom How I need to reach for oblivion How I feel this truth not meant for me As I kneel, Oh Lord please set me free

Glory / Failure : who's to judge ? The final score : does it lie within ? Time VS Time Half a life: but is it late enough ? Trying to be true to myself as a legacy and why as I will go childless As I finally learn to die, I suddenly start to live Carelessness is true freedom and I couldn't care less anymore Seeing that the World fails apart more everyday why shouldn't I go my own way Anger / Control : where's the key ? The rules: do they lie out there ? Time VS Time Half a Death : but is it soon enough ? Misplaced my licence to live, replaced it with a wild card I fear to play Tear up my heart once more so I remember how it kills to be made a lie Burn off my hopes and tighten the ropes that kept me from flying away I use to feel I was wasting my life until one day I realized I might have been asleep, so deep asleep, but no one can waste what's useless Still I raise…

Release me from that thousand pound burden – Can’t breathe Unleash me from that – Reset Thousand and one pound burden What’s it with life and reason How will I ever fall in Relieve me from those thousand and two trials – Can’t hear Unleash me from those – Reset Thousand and three trials at trying to try a trial at trying As she infiltrates me I get to choose what's real To feel or not to feel this larger than life wound that's waiving you In for a journey inside consumed nothingness, Of conscience lost through that "Me" I shall never be Out for a flashback inside that one last caress Of love and hate ,Enemy I shall ever be Embraced by Loss, engraved by Trust deceived by the test of time Embraced by Loss, betrayed by Lust, as she infiltrates me Reverse me from this - Reset Resend me to those thousand and four dreams – Can’t fail Unleash me, I’m going for the kill What’s it with Death and Evil How will I ever reach out If I’m to live this way I’d like to leave today If I’m to die this way I’d love to have this day then fade away Retrieve me from this – Reset Refuel me from that thousand and fifth fire – Can’t stop Unleash me for more trials at trying to try a trial at trying More trials at trying to die

about

[EVERTRAPPED] Montreal, Québec

[EVERTRAPPED] is a Montreal-based five-piece who have been bringing beautifully relentless brutal melodic death metal to audiences since 2007. The band’s name is intentionally written with enclosed brackets to signify the trappings of modern life for all of us and how people, despite their best attempts to break out of the mold are still affixed to a simple controlled existence and futility. ... more
