    "Delirium: A Southern Gothic Fable" is a five part tragedy that happens in the listener's mind. Delirium, the Devourer of Minds, is an entity who castes his spell upon the listener seeping their conscious slowly into insanity. Within the album are his twisted tomes of darkness on the subject of murder ballads, social injustice, desperation, and madness.

lyrics

There's a killer in the wood
It's name is time
This raging cancer
Soaks our soul in the brine
Beasts await
Slithering in the swamp
Us fools stand alone
With the hunger in our haunt

Faded memory of a town
(See the moss cover kindred memories)
I'm spooked beyond belief
Dark stars are alight
(Feel the ghosts that are fading slowly in darkness)
Take a walk amongst the tombstones
Through vacant lots in the night
(On our graves)

Unnamed jungles roam
To the place I call home
'Neath the killin' fields
Of my father's dreams
And the ghost
In his eyes

Eminent decay
On signs of the freeway
You'll cling for your mind
Leaders keep you astray
For broken down homes
And dead end jobs
'Neath the blazing sun
While your childhood's robbed

Faded memory of a town
(See the moss cover kindred memories)
I'm spooked beyond belief
Dark stars are alight
(Feel the ghosts that are fading slowly in darkness)
Take a walk amongst the tombstones
Through vacant lots in the night
(On our graves)

Echo'd plight
Abandoned factory halls
Cobwebs eat
At whitewashed walls
With our hearts
In hometown pride
Memories die
Like the stars in the sky

(Radio)
Desperate love by the dirty roadside in a trailer
'Neath the lights and power lines of a backwoods town
Are you a monstrosity or beloved to the shadows within?
