about

The Swamp is representative of a deceiver, particularly those who are given positions of political power. Throughout history many leaders lure the public with words and gestures used to appease base mentalities. However, underlying false promises sits the true darkness, an unfeeling world of certain demise contained in a pleasing package. An infecting corruption. Fail to understand the nature of The Swamp and be forever lost in its waters.

lyrics

I lure you in with a bounty of riches at your feet
Never looking up, you do not see danger that awaits
I now have you surrounded, my lies, entangling vines
My darkness conceals venomous teeth, all the while you sink

In the swamp No step is sure
Essence of disarray, no reason here
I am the Swamp, I own you now
In the Swamp, you're meaningless

My putrid waters are perfect for dissolving your beliefs
The poison sinks in unnoticed, you begin to fade away
I leave you in the mud and the moss which you will now become
Your intrusion, insignificant to this world of living oblivion

Never again behold the sun aglow
Decay erasing all indication of your path
I am the Swamp, my perils you ignored
Existence decomposed, I am the Swamp
