Chemical Imbalance 03:56
lyrics

“Chemical Imbalance” Will you forgive me? As I am outdated Years of abuse Can I be reinstated? Charges exist On my simple record Will you forget this? A brain off its rocker Reckless endangerment Driver under the influence Always escaping Good for our comfort Out on my injuries Always disabled Request ain't denied Chance to recharge up A life started over Who would of thought that A cripple could succeed? A message to the weak I am a joke (from head to toe (2nd time) Wars I will never win An in to the crippled system Battles that I can’t avoid Chemical imbalance All of the times I tried Everything that I’ve been through Trauma that can’t be fixed Post-traumatic stress disorder (bridge) I want a do-over I regret almost everything Give me the strength A brand-new brain This is not possible I want a miracle Who the fuck do I think I am? I have a chemical imbalance A prisoner of the system Its sounds like winning the lottery Chemical Imbalance

"Hallucinogenic Downpour" Walking through the streets Water seeps through my pours A bonus is received Is this a dream? Am I in heaven? Slaughter my soul Dream the extreme Let it rain down I ride the wind Live the extreme Trip on the rain Hallucinogenic Downpour (Laughing at the clouds a rainbow appears) I place myself Now at the beach Naked x-ray vision I see through bikinis This is the ultimate ride The current is strong and I leap through the waves Surfing with the current listening to the sharks All the time, I’m declined I risk this for fucking bliss I would do anything for excitement I’m cautious, adventurous, come take me, I deserve death ( This is a hurricane warning 150 Mile per hour winds Welcome to the eye of the storm Storm surge ahead Say hello to the catastrophic swirl Storm surge ahead Live life like there is no tomorrow Storm surge ahead What is real and what is not Storm surge ahead High on the storm Let it rain down I ride the wind…. (This song is not about me, but about someone stepping into a hurricane metaphorically while soul searching so to speak)

Bloodbath with Blondie 05:45
lyrics

"Bloodbath with Blondie" Welcome to a party with a girl in the sky Blood splattered tears We lick with the tongue A gothic mistress We are high as a kite An upper and a downer A breast in my mouth Exotic apocalypse Everlasting pleasure Sadness is bleak Why risk our demise Sentenced to death from the gods of thunder Lightning strikes A monster with sadness Terrifying blasphemy We will embrace This horror movie Bloodbath with Blondie Apocalypse of the city Tornadoes of air sweep along the coast A toxic environment outside our dome We snort the debris and stick like duct tape A one-night stand A bloodbath with Blondie Coke is a drug that grows close to your heart We float as we swim Bloodbath with Blondie Apocalypse of the city Bloodbath w Blondie Let it rain blood splattered tears I call on the… gods of thunder Do you hear her screaming moans? I scream at the earth Do you feel our wrath through our passion? I call on the god of Hurricanes!! Fly away we will poison you. We are full of drugs (poisonous influence) You will taste our hate You are pollution We fall in love We die so happy Sex, drugs and brutal metal Just like drinking a cup of tea While we are dying, we watch the hurricane Front row seats as if it was the game Sold out tickets to the eye of the storm Church going folks think the end has come Standing outside protesting in the rain They believe that god will save their little soul Shit-tard cults think they know it all The holy bible was written by junkies Holy shit the fictional story was told by humans of course I am an atheist I was told, (I know) You are a joke They all believe that their god will save their soul Bloodbath with Blondie Apocalypse of the city Bloodbath with Blondie Let it rain Our fate is together The exotic retreat of our times It’s just a hurricane Let it rain And the blood will splatter A one-night stand in a can of romance We hug each other attached with glue Loud sounds galore as the roof blows away separation is the fear we relate we kiss till death into the arms of the wind The mouth of the storm swallows us like magic Soap in the air Blood splattered tears Awake & conscious As we fly alive Naked and as one Bloodbath with Blondie

Junkies Never Say Die 06:05

Junkies Never Say Die Am i junkie? I stay close to my pills Prescribed all the goods Scapegoat criminal I search for the gold as I lye here in pain My effort is strong I won’t even try to manipulate I will try to live on the dirt Brand me a criminal and monitor Junkies never ever say die I have more pain the surgery failed Living through the fear of epidemics The pharmacy a dog with needs One day early I’ve broken the law Shut down relief, straight jacket torture No sense of urgency The doctors are stars They write their scripts for those grandfathered in Doctor shopping is a crime for us Slave to the farm if you’re in pain I cannot believe, responsibility I am alive by pulling their teeth Patients at risk to euphoria Life is just the worst, for a victim without I walked away once The pain has increased I am declined relief is a crime Call me a junkie I declare this war The media is wrong These words roll off of the tongue I search for relief but now I am shunned If I allow them to experiment I'll end up more crippled, dying in bed A pain pump pays the doctor commissions I'll have side effects that are life threatening Show me the way I wish I could have their support please show kindness Junkies never say die Would you give up? would you do it too? (Open the door, let me die in comfort) Survival is in play and I take this pain Maybe one day, rescue will come Until then I burn, with only defeat My care at risk, without my feet I will try to live on the dirt Brand me a criminal and monitor Junkies never ever say die I have more pain than the rest of you all The game is more dangerous Than selling your soul to the drugs that distract Forever defeated In agony I will die in agony Junkies Never Say Die

"Stranded on an Island" I have just arrived Skin and bones without belongings No direction High and dry, dehydrated This nightmare ain't a joke I'm blind The light is bright, the sun is shining Fear of survival I search for food, i aim to kill Extremely complicated The tools are broke, the crops are dead The predators lurk No humans in sight, I hide from animals I sharpen my stick Weakness is not an option Strength is reborn instinct I could die very easily Pain is my best friend If i survive will i relearn A better person's around the corner Separation is the key To open up accomplishments If you were me would you give up? I am a mess but i live off of hope Will I die? I am stranded on an island Left for dead in this maze of shit I am alive I am stranded on an island Everything invested means nothing I've seen the worst, it continues to decline Unwanted comfort, Just absolute suffering, a plan in flames Forever tortured I will try to live through suffering I am stranded on an island (I am still always searching for happiness but through all the hard times, I will survive and thrive in the end)

High on Glue 04:57

"HIGH ON GLUE" (Metaphorically High on Nothing) (meaning Delusional) I am in trance and I’m dancing with wolves The cars are flying, I am too old to grow I want collisions, cuz i can’t catch a spark The tires flat, I am trapped inside a bore, a fucking bore Out of drugs I need something Help me find it Searching for a score I decided to roam free Out on the streets I'm striking out again As I begin I sniff an Elmer’s can (metaphorically doing nothing) My brain is feeling gooey I feed off of you Out of drugs Nothing else to take My brain in withdrawal The search continues I made it to the city and the girls are dressed in black A gothic painted princess asks me for romance I offer her a sniff and she takes a hit (meaning she try's me out) As the journey continues We see a drug dealer As shady as it seems He took our money and ran How can a loser not score some blow even just prescriptions anything would fucking do... I am inside of my time Lying here in my tomb If you lived inside my shoes You would do the same as I I'm in a dirty trance please give me drugs High on Glue I am roaming free desperate, yes a stranger should come through Let’s go a different route My new girlfriend is an advertisement Out of drugs High on Glue (still nothing) I would not do the same as you…. Now the cops arrive someone ratted us out I roll my wheel chair fast down the hill I escape the apprehension Alone and crippled

“Psychodelic Mayhem” Lacerate the dream Before it consumes you Heroin prescriptions A world swollen up Perceive the difference By closing the door Open up the door Nightmares swallow you whole Horror lands down Staring you down Lacerate the dream Control all your actions You are in the danger The penalty is absolute torture Serotonin declines It penetrates your soul You are in the danger zone The penalty is absolute torture The blackbird Is a warning These Scissors Must lacerate The black bird Hovers over You must Sever your ties Psychodelic Mayhem Lacerate this hell Hold on, just realize This is not real If you can grasp this You might beat it Physchodelic mayhem Physchodelic This could cause black outs Record yourself with video Treat it by yourself alone Just maybe you will adapt Before this gets out of hand A blemish on your rep Stay away from the public Its better if you do this alone We all support you Even though your dangerous We know the real you You’re under the blanket Come out and play Face your demons Head on battles Feast this excitement Now the beast is on the table The exorcism begins its course This is where we gain momentum He doesn’t stand a chance we strike The exorcism Burns his heart The exorcism Kills Telepathically You are stronger Than you ever were!

"Carry the Craving" Standing up i tower looking down from the building I carry the craving Glancing at your happiness Is like pulling the trigger I carry the craving Scold me for wanting comfort feeding on others and all of their leftovers I tried to earn my money But I am limited I carry the craving Standing in the rain I never use an umbrella I carry the craving sometimes you think there is not a chance other times a miracle sparks an interest Sweating and fiending, Carry the Craving Consuming distractions, Carry the craving One day I noticed the change in me It took a turn for the worst Here we go. I am back in the hospital No fucking way can I risk another recovery Give me some drugs just keep me comfortable I need to survive in the shitty slave driven world What is wrong with this world? These people don't have any compassion I have been offered a chance for relief it comes with a risk that i don't want to take Am I an addict? I can’t tell anymore Group therapy An experiment I carry the Craving Its weighs heavily I can’t breathe! This system has failed I can’t take it anymore! Here we go I deserve compensation I lye here in bed I am living in a fantasy land Wake up its time to feel the fucking car wreck, fucking car wreck The horror is real I need this so bad, so fucking bad Why can’t they just help my craving, my craving I need help from these fucking doctors, they have no compassion Help me now! What is wrong with this fucking world? They just want us all to die in fucking pain forever!!!

"The Maze Crawler" I cannot believe I am almost 40 I signed an agreement that keeps me close to my new home It did not turn out the way that I planned I will never forget what a failure I am I don’t care What you say I am on the way The maze crawler I don’t care How I win I will prevail The maze crawler Something is telling me I should crawl through The city of death Dead ends ahead Something is feeding me I am growing thicker I bash through the walls Dead ends opened up I moved to get away Its been a tough time I don’t leave the house I’m the maze crawler I live off of hope It’s time to embrace The Maze Crawler The Maze crawler is a mind fuck streets of no end feel the paranoia The Maze crawler Let me out now I race the roads and I never finish I am the guy in the end who is always panting No one else breaks a sweat!!! I am over the hill Who gives a fuck about age? We’d still fuck her!! (sarcastically) Today will mark the first time for me My mission is clear that I am trying to escape this maze I moved here for a chance to thrive in life No matter what happens at least I gave it a try The dungeon is hot and I’m always covered in sweat I come from the north down here its loddy fuckin dah Too bad for them, they could have used my experience I never dreamed that I would be trapped in a maze this extreme This extreme! I hit another wall My face is bleeding The Maze Crawler Nightmare on elm street another WAWA store Walmart’s at the corner, I driving in a circle A corporate park, where I can’t find a job I am worth a penny here, please pay me a buck I promise I’ll do it If you give me the chance Let me spread my wings I swear on my grave I will come back stronger A better person The maze crawler (I need the keys to open the locks) Let me out Please I beg you This is communism I’m in sales I’ll close a deal I will come back and bring you another fresh soul I will bring more people to your city it’s a victory, win win We all win in the end…Just let me out for now, I promise I’ll return……I give you my word!

“Shitcan Salad” I’m a fucking joke A disgrace to us all You should kill me fast You need to kill me real fast A waste of space for everyone It might already be to fucking late… Sorry! I don’t love you now! (so i think for a quick second only) Today is the day That I reflect The joke is harsh To take in right now all of a sudden I am a ghost To all of our friends Right here now Are we dead? Is this real? I can’t breathe I eat shit Can you hear my thunder? I am louder than gun shots Place me in a jail I deserve this hell Please end my reign Come with me and see the end I will prevail in your demise Under the tree is a present for you Run! Run far away Run before it’s too late So what I equal shit So what we aged a little Still I am worth a penny Shitcan salad and chocolate Milk I am Grace C meat I am like a fast food burger Shitcan salad is me All these years was just a masquerade 40 years of disarray Who am I to say we should end it this way? There’s a documentary written about me Uhhhhhh! (someone is saying I am the talk of the town) I am bleeding us dry, I know I am a waste of space Hold on a minute do you really want to talk me out of my death? Just let me jump (I mean this all on a quick negative thought, not seriously) I am lost and there is nothing you can do for me I am full of shit and a waste of space…. I live in a shitcan salad hell You can’t help me I am useless, so fucking useless I am a shitcan salad…. (All these negative thoughts on a random day, once again in the end is everything we embrace to make us a better person and stronger)

about

Skumbagh is back again with their second full length album titled “#2 The Maze Crawler” set to be available for download and compact disc November 5th, 2018. This release includes 10 tracks, 1 bonus track and over 1 hour of jam packed Experimental Extreme Cyber Metal music. This time around Bill Klopfer (of Kaos Reign/Murder Castle) had some free time to write and record some extra therapeutic metal music for these few certain weeks. After moving to Virginia Beach, VA from Connecticut during the relocation process it seemed it was the right time through isolation and distraught to make this side project come back to life. Everyone of these songs speaks about this true special moment of time during the month of September 2018.
Hurricane Florence was heading to the East coast recently in the summer and it sparked up some solo creativity. Every song differs from the next ranging from tempos of 140 BPM to 220 BPM. All the instruments were performed by Bill Klopfer as well as the engineering once again. This time a Roland digital and analog synthesizer was used for noise and keyboard sound progressions along with programming from FL Studio. This hard-hitting release covers a lot of ground and resulted in a thicker heavier guitar and bass sound than Skumbagh’s first release “Cyber Beast”. All though Bill is very proud of both albums, you can hear the progression of sound on this next album. Influences for this album and type of music would relate to bands such as Strapping Young Lad, Nailbomb, Fear Factory, Front Line Assembly, Ministry, and anything else Extreme Metal or Industrial mixed and crossed over. Hopefully everyone digs this music as it was meant to be jammed out as loud as possible in your personal car or standard living room. Please listen to a few different songs before making the decision if you like it or not. Skumbagh was meant to sound different than Bill Klopfer’s other bands such as Kaos Reign or Murder Castle. As you all know, this is a side project, but hopefully most of you enjoy it either way.
