Grand Rapids based sludgy hardcore punks WORST SELF (featured with their latest album HERE) are back with new 14 minute long bleak hardcore masterpiece called “Servant Of Death”! Stream it below and scroll down to see the lyrics.

I went away. Just for the night
It turned into the end
Now you’re left with questions and no answers
I pushed the limit to far for the last time

Wake me up
Wake me up

Death is forever
If the light is to bright
Close your eyes
Put me in a shallow grave
I promise I’m coming back.
No. Death is forever

I wish I could right my wrongs
A legacy of guilt and shame
Abandoned the ones I love the most
For a bottle that could never love me back
There will be no peace for me

Close the gates. I’m not staying here.
This is not my home.
So much is left undone.
This is not my home.
Gone and I’ll be forgotten.
This is not my home.
Been judged and now I’ll wait.
This is not my home.

Death is forever
If the light is to bright
Close your eyes
Put me in a shallow grave
I promise I’m coming back.
No. You will get your answers

You wanted to see the city burn
The jokes on you
Remember it’s sink or swim
Get off the bottom
Didn’t even get the chance
To tell you I failed you
I went away
Now my boy wants to see the living proof

Where did you go?

Where did you go?
One moment you’re here
The next you’re gone

Where did you go?
Your son wants to know.

Hear my sorrowful song.

Remember Me

A broken promise can’t be undone
Floating in space what have I become.
Time is a healer. But it’s not on my side
All out of chances what’s done is done

Remember me. Please? Remember me.

Will you remember me? I’ll never know
Will you remember me? I’ll never know
I was your father but now I’m just a distant memory.
It breaks my heart that I’ll never get to hold you again.

Rest in peace. More like in pieces.

My wife. My kids.

I’m floating through the roof of my car. I see my brother crying. I’m approaching the light. Push the gates open. Pinch myself i must be dreaming. Mother Mary say a prayer for me. I’m not supposed to be here. Not yet. Not now. This has to be a mistake. It’s not my time.

Servant of Death
What have I done?
Servant Of Death
Take me back to my body
Don’t tell me this is goodbye
You’ll never know how much I love you

I surrender you hear me I surrender

Cut me open. It’s not deep enough to hurt.
Will you remember me?
(Another drunk dead and gone)
Cut me open. It’s not deep enough to hurt.
Will you remember me.
(An Alcoholic in denial. Nothin to deny now.)

No body to break. Only the spirit is left
No body to break

Remember me. Please? Remember me. Rest in pieces

What could have been.
What could have been.
