BOOKLET PREVIEW:

"Love is Lust" is the seventh studio album by pop music icon and producer Stephanie Fierce set to be released July 8, 2012, through North Hill Records. This is the second album in which Stephanie Fierce produced and wrote entirely, first being "Free" which was released on June 28, 2011 through Hot Eye Records. Further on, following the footsteps of "Free", Fierce once again ditches the pop mainstream sound to create an innovative and experimental approach with the atmosphere of the LP. The album's main dish in sound is a mixture of synth-pop and ambient through a variety of genres that are backed up with live instrumentation. Most songs on the album are designed to include a noticeable change in production and are cohesive to the body of work. Some of the songs on the album such as the opening track "Love is Lust" expand to the non-traditional 10 minutes in length and include a variety of climaxes and silent vocal sections. While the album consists of dark/grime moments with tracks such as "Whore" and "Parasite", the album has a consistent and present soulful sound that can be classified as R&B and Soul on some of the lighter tracks. Overall, no doubt this is set to be one of Stephanie Fierce's more crafted effort as 'Lust' consists of 11 tracks, each written and produced by Stephanie Fierce. While "Throat Cutters" are credited as the "house band" for all of the songs on the album, Stephanie Fierce was heavily involved in the instrumentation process. The entire album was recorded in the form of a live concert performance in a private studio specifically built for the album, which included an orchestra and a choir group arrangement. Included in the orchestra, were string instruments such as the violin, brass instruments such as the horns and jazz instruments such as the saxophone and flute. Each song was then mixed and processed by Stephanie Fierce on a complex sound board for a master final version. All ambient sounds, were produced by computer and the "Fierce Atmosphere" instrument Stephanie Fierce designed during the recording of her 5th studio LP. All piano work on "Lust" was composed and played by Stephanie Fierce. The guitar solo on "Love is Lust" (Song) was composed and performed by Fierce as well.

The album's concept simply argues the idea of love being confused with "Lust", a personal experience Stephanie Fierce felt is compelling to a lot of people. While "Free" was the concept of breaking away from perverseness and a dark state of mind, this album is the concept of breaking "free" from the idea of "lust" in a relationship, and truly defining the meaning of love.

"I decided to name this new album "Love is Lust". This album is about love being confused with lust and most of the tracks correlate to that subject. I've personally have had a struggling love life and I've always exposed it in a revengeful kind of way to my listeners with feisty songs such as "Back to Fierce" and "The Bitch". Don't get me wrong, those kind of songs truly define the fierce persona I have but now let's put the guns, dildos and fighting words away and get serious about the subject in a more vulnerable kind of matter. Many of us will experience this evil feeling of lusting over someone or something in confusion of actually loving them/it but it's something that not many of us like to admit because we're all suppose to be these great perfect lovers. That's something I've seen happen a lot in today's generation. Part of this album being so personal to me is because I'm admitting to lusting over certain people in my life and I feel as though singing it out loud or putting it in a song I'm truly exposing myself through music and that's a big deal to me. But I'm not the criminal here either, people have done bad things to me, and the fierce will always come out of me from time to time and you will also see that in this album. There's a perfect balance on vulnerability and fantasy. Something I think my fans have had nostalgia with due to "Diary of a Pop Sinner" - Stephanie Fierce

Thank You's:

“Lucky number seven, no doubt, it’s been a long journey, but my desire to make music has only grown stronger over the years. So, first and foremost I want to thank God for blessing me and my family. I remember the first day I released my first album “The Past, The Present and the Future of Pop”, and it’s amazing to see how much I’ve grown over the years. I can say that musically I’ve shown versatility in music with various genres throughout my albums as that's always been my goal as an artist and now I’m ready to use everything I got to bring it all together. Not that it will be over, but this will be my very last album in a long time. It’s heartbreaking that I’ve reached this point in my career, because I’m no longer trying to prove, but to live up to my legacy and that was a moment I dreaded since the release of my second album “Diary of a Pop Sinner”. However, I will say that where I am now, has paved the way for so my own self, so I un-selfishly thank myself. I want to thank, The Rockers for teaching me so much about that darn guitar lol. I want to thank everyone I’ve worked with musically on an artistic level. I want to thank my beautiful daughter Helle, whose smile brought light to my eyes everyday. I want to thank the first person that ever reached out to me in music; this person was a unique individual who goes by the name of Bikki, the greatest songwriter of our time, thank you for inspiring me to be a songwriter and pushing me to be a good one. I want to thank the Black Doves for their amazing work on "Love is Lust", you've been with me since "Newborn" and I admire your time and dedication to me. I also want to give a HUGE thank you to the New York University Orchestra for their amazing performance on this album, you guys all earned "A"'s on your finals and I'm more than relieved cause you all truly deserved it. I also want to thank my EPIC musicians "Throat Cutters", thank you guys for joining me on the journey of making this album, I truly respect your work ethic and your ability to understand my vision as an artist. Without you guys, the sound of "Love is Lust" wouldn't have been the way I wanted it to be. And last but not least, I want to give a warm thank you to all my fans who have stuck with me throughout the years. I want to thank for your amazing patience and tolerance with receiving this record, which has been in the works for way too long. This record is for you. I'm back to fierce”Stephanie Fierce

1. LOVE IS LUST,

"Beyonce: 1 +1, M83: "Klaus I Love you" + Outro"

Vocals by: Stephanie Fierce
Written and Produced by: Stephanie Fierce
Instruments: Pipe Organ, Piano, Bass Guitars, Electric Guitar, 80's Drum Kit, Synthesizers, Orchestra

"If I ain't got nothing, I got you
If I ain't got love I don't give a damn
cause I got it with you
I don't know much about algebra,
but I know 1 + 1 = 2 and its me and you
that's all we'll have when the world is through
cause baby we ain't got nothing without love
darling I got enough for the bost of us
so come on baby make love to me,
when my days look low, hold me in close and don't let me go
make love to me
so when the world is at war, that our love heal us all
right now baby
make love to me
me, me, me, me
Oh Oh make love to me"



"The album opens up with the monster track "Love is Lust". The song which is divided into three parts, begins as a simplistic soulful down-tempo R&B power ballad. Its first part contains a lazy but melodic guitar backed with a haunting pipe organ that strikes the listener with emotion. Meanwhile wind chimes, strings, synthesizers, a funk-influenced bass and piano are heard present throughout the track giving it more definfition. While its quirky lyrics may grab your attention, it is the production that moves the song forward. The first part which is home to most of the lyrical content, evolves into an agressive guitar solo giving the song more edge and personality. The guitar solo then finishes out with a whiny synthersizer, fading out into the song's second part. The second part, which almost serves as an interlude to the song, introduces a completely new sound to the song's production. The fusion of ambient, new wave and trance is heard, eventually breaking out into a groovy dance section of new wave beats that could possibly be heard in the 80's. The song then ends with an epic orchestral finale, which serves as the third part of the song. The orchestral sound is backed with an enthusiastic drum kit player and miminal chorus group vocals. The song eventually fades out with a quiet section of sad piano, giving the song a sensitive tear jerking finish. No worries for listeners with short attention spans because all 10 mintues of the track will keep you intregued, despite its corny lyrics "I don't know much about algrebra, but I know 1 + 1 = 2" the song is definfitly in good standing as opening track of the album.


2. SENT A BULLET,
Sounds like:
"Adele: Set Fire to the Rain"

Genre: Pop, Soul
Vocals by: Stephanie Fierce
Written and Produced by: Stephanie Fierce
Instruments: Piano, Orchestra
Musicians: Stephanie Fierce, New York University Orchestra, The Black Doves

"I didn't let you break my heart
Cause it rose just like a phoenix
It was strong, and I was sober
Until the fire burned right inside me
My mind feels strong, but my heart is far too weak
To just stand in your way, without falling to your feet
But there's a side to me that you never knew, never knew
All the things you did were never true, never true
And the games we played
you would always, would always win
But I sent a bullet to the air
Watch it burn, as it hit your chest
When It burned, I just cried
Cause I heard it screaming out your name
your name.."


If 10 minutes was too much to handle, you may find "Sent a Bullet" a bit more appealing for you. "Sent a Bullet" contains a more upbeat piano that's partnered with a stronger attitude in its lyrical and vocal deliverance in comparison to the first track. The song which is also driven by an engineered beat is backed with a noise that sounds like a choir group, which can be classified as a "Wall of Sound"; a stategy used to produced an unique orchestra sound . Lyrically, "Sent A Bullet" talks about the idea of breaking someone's heart before that person breaks yours; as Steph fiercely sings "Love is blind to many, but like a bullet I can see right through your chest", the idea and concept of "Love is Lust" grows stronger lyrically. While it's lyrical content may serve you well, it is the chorus part in which Stephanie Fierce shows off her gutsy pipes that makes the song a favorite. Somewhat similar to "Back to Fierce", you hear Stephanie with a more raspy approach to her voice, especially when she sings "But I sent a bullet to the air, watch it burn as it hit your chest". Steph manages to combine a combination of vocal styles, both high pitch low pitch note reflexes in the matter of seconds; that of only a skilled vocalist. Especially in the end when Stephanie Fierce begins to really belt out the lyrics in which she painfully sings through her crying.


3. WHORE,
Sounds like:
"Madonna: Gang Bang"

Genre: Electronic, Dance, Screamo
Vocals by: Stephanie Fierce
Written and Produced by: Stephanie Fierce
Instruments: Synthesizer, Bass Guitars, Electric Guitar, Drums
Musicians: Stephanie Fierce, Throat Cutters

"fierce mafia
the sinner is back,
cover your ears children
its story time

Like a saint in disorder
Like a sinner out of hell
Like a kitty in heat she's horny cant you tell
fierce fierce
fierce fierce

He thought she was good, cause she painted it that
but compared to the others she's the baddest thing he had

fierce, fierce, (gibberish)
fierce, fierce, (gibberish)

He though it wa him she loved the most
but she was just lusting him, keeping him close
she made her decison, she would neva look back
so how you think she end up with all of your jack

fierce, fierce (gibberish)
fierce, fierce (gibberish)

saint in disorder
sinner out of hell
Kitty in heat, she's horny can you tell"



Just when you thought the album was goin to only be a collection of boring ballads (the first two weren't boring, but it would of been awful if every song were to be ballads after the first two) that are jam packed with vulnerable lyrics, the fiesty "Whore" comes in to save the day. As if the song's title itself wasn't bait to pop listeners, the song carries itself with a suspenseful yet catchy electronic underground beat, which I'm sure fierce fans all over the words will adore. What's actually interesting about this song is Stephanie Fierce's vocal styling. In the first part of the song, Stephanie Fierce is heard in a whispery, seductive and much more masculine tone, almost to the point that it doesn't even sound like her. Lyrically the song portrays a provocative woman who is lusting over a man for his money . The lyrics grow a little more disturbing when Steph wants her lover to "chug her dick". Those are proably the raciest words I've ever heard come out of a woman's mouth in all my years of living on this planet. The mental images just horrify me. The song's storytelling lyrics however are somewhat reminiscent to "Sweaty Nights" on "Diary of a Pop Sinner", which is something some of the older fans may enjoy, however there is a slight confusion of on whether Stephanie Fierce comes out as desperate or innovative on this one. The songs pulsating production continues with more throbbing beats, dismissing the predictable dubspet breakdown most pop stars are doing nowadays. Leading into a suspenseful section were Stephanie Fierce turns into a demonic creature. In her signature screamo voice Stephanie Fierce shockingly says the following " And I'm going straight to hell... but I've got a lot of friends there," before yelling, "DIE BITCH, DIE BITCH!" continuously until she shouts "If you're going to act like a bitch then you're going to die like a bitch".

LEAD SINGLE:


"Slap My Bass"

Genres: R&B
Written and Produced by: Stephanie Fierce
Release Date: June 1, 2012 (Digital, Airplay)
Instruments: Church Organ, Electric Guitar, Bass, Drums
Musicians: Stephanie Fierce, Throat Cutters


"Slap My Bass" is a song recorded by music artist and producer Stephanie Fierce; serving as the ninth track of "Love is Lust" which is due in stores July 8, 2012. The song was written and produced by Stephanie Fierce and will be released as the album's first single on July 1, 2012. While only the original is included on "Love is Lust", the song's remix which includes additional vocals of R&B singer Dominic Brown will be included on the track-listing of "Love is Lust: Fan Edition". A music video was also filmed for the song on June 29th and June 30th and will premiere the week following the song's release.

"Slap My Bass" is mostly a midtempo R&B song with a sensual vibe resembling Stephanie Fierce's previous work on "The Past, The Present and The Future of Pop". In the song, Fierce showcases a more sexy and raunchy side with her innuendo lyrics and vocals as she sings over a church organ, which gives the song a medieval and 40's music inspired feel. The song also contains echoing drum patterns that reflects modern R&B music, a bluesy guitar that blends well with Steph's sensual vocals, an electric guitar that becomes highly present towards the end giving the song more edge,and clapping synthesizers that gives the song a strong urban touch. Aside from the song's sensual lyrics and production, Fierce's vocal seem to also be a highlight, especially towards the end, when coming close to a high pitch range that of Mariah Carey. Unlike most of the songs on "Love is Lust", "Slap My Bass" contains a more urban mainstream approach, which in Steph's case is something she hasn't considered doing much since the release of her second album. In prospect, this opens up a whole new idea that an album can blend a mainstream sound with something that's a bit more "out the box", and in Fierce's vision the addition of a "church organ" and electric guitars give the song a more Prince approach rather than a Michael Jackson approach. In this she means that the song is still very mainstream, but contains elements that give the song a more alternative approach. Lyrically the song talks about a true desire for sexual activities with her partner, in reason to appreciation of her man being good and loyal. The song's title "Slap My Bass" also refers to "Slap My Ass" as a sexual innuendo. The song's remix which features, R&B singer Domic Brown will include different lyrics to the song as an electric guitar is more present instead of the church organ.


As the song opens up, the medieval sound of a church organ is heard as Steph's soft and sultry vocals come present. The lyrics begin innocently as she talks about the appreciation of her man, sooner than later, the songs meets up with urban beats and synthesizers slapping against the song's innocent church organ. As it continues, the words "Fucking you is really all that's on my mind" may give the listener a rude awakening. The song proceeds with more explicit sexual innuendo language especially in the song's chorus with "tonight I'm gonna put my bossy on your body, boy I love it when you watch me" and "Want you to be slapping on my bass, slapping, slapping on my bass,". The song progresses with cocky vocals and lyrics all throughout, "You'll never need 2 'cause I will be your number 1. Them other chicks are superficial, betta you know you know I'm the one". The song however becomes even more aggressive vocally in the bridge and outro, as her more raspy and lower register becomes present. Eventually, Steph loses control and begins to use slang and raunchy words to describe what she'll be doing to her man; "Watch me pop it, pop it, p-p-p-p-pop this pussy on you baby. Now slap it, slap it, slap it, drop it all in me baby". During so, the clashing of beats is heard as Stephanie Fierce eventually exits out releasing and unleashing a diva like high pitched moan, in reference to her reaching a form of orgasm. As the song ends, Fierce begins to softly chant "yes" in the background as an electric guitar crescendos into a sound that contains ambient features.


""Slap my Bass" is definitely one of my favorite songs on the album. In terms of sound, I was really inspired by a lot of 40's investigation films and the soundtrack of films in the 40's in general. This album is definitively very electric guitar heavy and I know electric guitars can be very cliche in pop music, but the inclusion of them in an R&B song such as this one is something I considered since the first day I even thought of the song. Obviously with the title of my new album, there was bound to be a raunchy 'let's fuck' song on this album. But I will definitely say that this song is not just a let's fuck track, there's something about the sound that just gives me chills because it's not hip hop, it still has that soulful "I love you" vibe, which connects well with the idea of message. It's not necessarily a Marvin Gaye "Sexual Healing" as well as it's not a Trina "Pop My Pussy" track either. Lyrically, I was impressed with my ability to be this shameless and confident. I've written raunchy songs before but in a more poetic kind of way, in this I was bit more careless with the choice of my words. However, sometimes we just want to show the ones we love a good time and show how much we appreciate them, how much desire we have for them and how horny we can get because of it. It's perfectly normal. I mean we're sexual and freaky creatures and I wasn't afraid to let go and be freak for a day in the studio. I will say that my man is very pleased to have a woman like me, because I'm strong and I'm able to take on BIG challenges. I think I positioned this track very well because in terms of the album's concept being lust, "Queen" which is the song that follows it, is much more stripped and vulnerable and sometimes we only think love in the sexual aspect of our interest, which proceeds to the are we really in this for the love or for the sex and that's being honest." - Stephanie Fierce


Stephanie Fierce "Slap My Bass" (Lyrics)

"I just wanna show you how horny I am for you, yes
Wanna show you how much I'm dedicated to you, yes
Wanna show you how much I will forever be good, yes
Wanna show you how much you got your girl feeling good, oh, yes
Wanna show you how much, how much you understood, oh, yes
Wanna show you how much I value what you say,
Not only are you loyal, you're patient with me babe, oh, yes
Wanna show you how much I really care about your heart,
Wanna show you how much I hate being apart, oh, yes
Show you, show you, show you, till you through with me,
I wanna keep it how it is so you can never say how it used to be!

[Pre-Chorus:]
Stephanie Fierce:
Fucking you is really all that's on my mind
And I can't help but to think about it day and night,
I wanna make that body rock
Sit back and watch!

[Chorus:]
Tonight I work for you, oh-oh
Tonight I'm gonna work for you, oh-oh
Tonight I'm gonna put my bossy on your body
Boy I like it when you watch me, ah
Tonight it's going down
Want you to be
slapping on my bass, slapping, slapping on my bass,
Swirlin' on my bass, swirlin', swirlin' on my bass
Baby let me put my body on your body
Promise not to tell nobody
'Cause I'm about to take you down


[Verse 2:]
You'll never need 2 'cause I will be your number 1
Them other chicks are superficial
Betta you know you know I'm the one
and that's why I'm all in to you
'Cause I can recognize that you know that
That's why I'm backing this thing back
Pop-popping this thing back
Drop, drop, drop-dropping this thing back
This is for the time you gave me flowers
For the world that is ours
For the mula, for the power of love
And no I won't never ever e-ever give you up
And I wanna say thank you in case I don't thank you enough
A woman in the street and a freak in the you know what
Sit back, sit back, it's the pre-game show
Daddy you know what's up!

[Pre-Chorus:]
fucking you is really all that's on my mind
And I can't help but to think about it day and night,
I wanna make that body rock
Sit back and watch!

[Chorus:]
Tonight I work for you, oh-oh
Tonight I'm gonna work for you, oh-oh
Tonight I'm gonna put my body on your body
Boy I like it when you watch me, ah
Tonight it's going down
Want you to be
Slapping on my bass, slapping, slapping,
I'll be swirlin' on my bass, swirlin', swirlin' on you bass
I'm gonna put my body on your body
Promise not to tell nobody
'Cause it's about to go down!


[Bridge:]
I'm a take this time to show you how much you mean to me
'Cause you are all I need,
No money can emphasize
Or describe
The love that's in-between the lines
Boy, look into my eyes
While I'm grinding on you
This is beyond sex,
I'm high on you
If it's real then you know how I feel
Rocking on you babe, rocking, rocking on you babe
Swirling on you babe,
In my mind all I can think about is a frame for our future
And the pictures of the past and a chance to make this love last!

[Chorus:]
Tonight I work for you, oh-oh
Tonight I'm gonna work for you, oh-oh
Tonight I'm gonna put my body on your body
Boy I like it when you watch me, ah
Tonight it's going down
Want you to be
Slapping on my bass, slapping, slapping on my babe,
I'll be swirlin' on my bass, swirlin', swirlin' on my bass
I'm wanna put my body on your body
Promise not to tell nobody
'Cause it's about to go down, oh!

[Outro:]
Watch me pop it, pop it, p-p-p-p-pop this pussy for you baby
Now slap it, slap it, drop it, drop it on me baby
watch it, watch it, watch it, watch me throw this bossy baby
Wanna make that body rock
Sit back and watch!
Me pop it, pop it, p-p-p-p-pop it for you baby
Now slap it, slap it, drop it, drop it for you baby
Watch it, watch it, watch it, watch me throw it baby
Wanna make that body rock
Sit back and watch!

Yes
Yes
Yes
Oh, yes
Oh, yes
Yes
Yes
Oh, yes"

PERFORMANCES:


UserPostedImage

An audience of about 2,000 people patiently waited as countless stage managers and audio technicians swarmed the stage to put finalization to satisfy the demands of Stephanie Fierce's performance. The stage which was surrounded by bright LCD screens, was set up with modern instruments such as drum kit that's connected to a computerized "Drum and bass imitator" and other computerized instruments that are used to mimic the song's production, which were woken up by the stage's dramatic theathrical lights. But above all, a microphone that was attached to a customized "celesta" (an instrument that incorporates idophone sounds with keys on keyboards) stood center stage. In preparation for the performance, a choir group of women (The Black Doves) wearing long white robes were seen aligning into the left corner of the stage to serve as back up singers for Steph. Following them, members of the "Troath Cutters" band reported to their designated instruments, doing a quiet sound check which also served as entertainment for the audience. The electronic drum kit player Joshua was very nervous as he preppared for his Amen Break solo that he had to play towards the end of the performance. Him and his instrument stood far right of the stage facing the audience. All he could think in his head were the notes and the facial expressions he was to make during his playing. Rest of the members Chris and Jonathan were busy rehearsing their parts on the computerized systems and receiving feedback from engineers to make sure the sound was right and bright. Lastly, Stephanie Fierce who was in her dressing room, was preppering by going over the song's lyrics that were placed on the sheet music. Her make-up and wardrobe had already been done, but finishing touches were being made by her make up artist and hairstylist to bring her look to perfection. Soon her name would be announced and all Fierce could do is hope to give it her all and entertain a thirsty crowd.

After a brief session of sound check, it was time for the performance to finally take place. The crowd grew quiet in preparation to see Stephanie Fierce walk up center stage and finally a beautiful woman with a curvy waist and lioness hair walked up. As soon as everyone in the audience recognized it was Stephanie Fierce,a roar of cheers tidal waved its way to the front. All Steph could do was smile and wave in anxiety.

Jimmy Kimmel: Performing the cut "U and I = Sucice" off her new album "Love is Lust" in stores July 8th, please give it up for iconic superstar STEPHANIE FIERCE!




As soon as she heard her name, an adrenaline rush took over and confidently whilst playing the "celesta" with all her passion, Stephanie Fierce begins the song with the song's opening line: "Underneath our Feets", singing it on a higher register that the original. The bright sound of the celesta also shocks the audience of 2,000 as it is heard. Steph who seems comfortable with this, continues playing while bopping her head to the sprinkly beat. Everyone in the audience eventually grows quiet as they are hearing the song for the very first time, paying close attention to what Stephanie Fierce is doing. Following the other lines she begins to move in reaction to the songs bright rhythm in which she's creating with her "celesta", just a bit more excessevly. Joining her are Chris and Jonathan who innovate the song's sound forward by providing beat boxing additions to the performance. The Black Doves also are heard singing in the background repeating the lyrics "U and I" and "Listen how it grow" as Stephanie Fierce sings the rest of the lyrics.

Once Stephanie reaches the lyrics "We mimic the openess", the clashing of loud industrial atmospheric sounds is heard, and everyone on stage along with Steph playing on the "Celesta" come to a complete stop to honor it. "Of the ones we love"; Steph then sings to the crowd in a more presentful form. Following that line a hip-hop flavored beat which is played by Joshua joins in as Stephanei Fierce eases in the original composition of the "celesta" back into the performance becoming present with the support of the new instruments being played. Once Stephanie Fierce reaches what is to be the bridge of the song, she stops and faces her back to the audience signaling a possible climax in the song. The crowd goes insane as they wait for the moment they all were looking for.

Stephanie Fierce: Ladies and gentlemen, THROAT CUTTERS!!!!!

And finally, Joshua begins the "Amen break" in the song, which spans to a complete minute of nothing but throbbing industrial remixed beats. During so, Stephanie who is joined by "The Black Doves" begins to head bang excessively to Joshua's solo. Everyone in the crowd goes crazy as they begin to head bang and jump in excitement of the sound. Steph continues throwing her arms up and down enjoying the finishing of the performance, as the amen breakdown comes to a complete stop, Steph who is now located behind the celesta finishes the song's last few notes with it tossing a fist into the air.





U and I = Suicide (Lyrics)

Underneath our feet
This love grow like plants
(Listen how it grows)
I'm blinded by your eyes
(Listen how they grow)
and the core of the heart
(Listen how they grow)

You and I
Internal Nebula
(You and I)
lust growing slowmo
(You and I)
I conquer philophobia
(You and I)
equal suicide

We mimic the openness
Of the ones who love
Death of our generosity
equalizes the flow

You and I
Internal Nebula
You and I
Lust growing slowmo
You and I
I conquer philophobia
You and I
equal suicide

Internal Nebula
(You and I)
Lust growing slowmo
(You and I)
I conquer Philophobia
(You and I)
equal suicide

It's death you become
Conquer an anxiety
death you become
Conquer anxiety

It's death you become
When you conquer an anxiety
It's death you become
When you conquer an
