I’ve seen it all Deception I’ve heard a lot Your mouth full of lies I’ve felt a lot this chaos I’ve seen what’s wrong And I’m not falling again for these lies Not this time Not again Now I know better than last time Not this time Not these lies Now I know better than last time Bending the truth Spreading the lies Breaking the truce Time and time Bending the truth Spreading the lies Breaking the truce Burning the forgotten Burning what was rotten Burning the forgotten Forever and ever Burning the forgotten Burning what was rotten Burning the forgotten Forever and ever, now! It’s spread a lot Infection Blending the truth With outrageous lies Playing the game along Immersion Hoping for your salvation will come in time But not this time Not again Now I know better than last time Not this time Not these lies Now I know better than last time Bending the truth Spreading the lies Breaking the truce Time and time Bending the truth Spreading the lies Breaking the truce Burning the forgotten Burning what was rotten Burning the forgotten Forever and ever Burning the forgotten Burning what was rotten Burning the forgotten Forever and ever Burning the forgotten Burning what was rotten Burning the forgotten Forever and ever Burning the forgotten Burning what was rotten Burning the forgotten Forever and ever

An image of power Awaiting their fame Control and devour Inflicting the pain This feeling of anger that’s burning inside They left us no reason to stay in the light And minute by minute they rewrite the script But now is the hour to crash the deceit I hear, I hear, I hear the cries of the lost I feel, I feel, I feel the pain of our souls I hear, I hear, I hear the cries of the lost I tear, I tear, I tear the icons of the wrong They said that nothing is wrong We told the ones that we love They said that nothing is wrong There seems to be no hope What have they dealt? What have they made? What games they played? What hopes they failed? What have they thought? What have they brought? What pains they bought? What truths they fought? The air that we breathe is the gold in their eye They will live in greed, and we will bleed in hate Forced upon our flesh When the metal burns Like a force of death The air that we breathe is the gold in their eye They will live in greed, and we will bleed in hate Forced upon our flesh When the metal burns Like a force of death In our darkest hour Who will be saved? We fight with the fire To rescue our fate As vultures surround our decaying life We start from the darkness to search for the light No words of compassion No sympathy face Will help us survive this unfairly race. I hear, I hear, I hear the wrath of the lost I see, I see, I see the path of our souls I hear, I hear, I hear the wrath of the lost I yearn, I yearn, I yearn the anguish of the pawns They said that they were just pawns Behold, the damage was done They said that they were just pawns How can we seem to cope? What have they felt? What have they aimed? What tears they shed? And was it fake? What have they sought? What have they mocked? What lies they sold? What trust they broke? The air that we breathe is the gold in their eye They will live in greed, and we will bleed in hate Forced upon our flesh When the metal burns Like a force of death The air that we breathe is the gold in their eye They will live in greed, and we will bleed in hate Forced upon our flesh When the metal burns Like a force of death Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate! The air that we breathe is the gold in their eye They will live in greed, and we will bleed in hate Forced upon our flesh When the metal burns Like a force of death

I feel a flare Inside of me Your try to do damage to my soul I can’t believe This irony That you can’t see your fall No truth inside You lost your sight Your soul enslaved in utmost misery Why do you speak? Your words are fake No one can hear anymore At once very pure But now I despise your face Tell me, did you read all the signs? The worst part of the world Is burning now bright for you It glows in despair Never ending hate In the silence stays And everything is ending bad in your escape In your mental state In your ending fate There is no peace in you as you are one of Those with the rotten souls Αwaiting the flames to burn to their core Those with the rotten souls The trail that leads to the end of their world Those with the rotten souls You can’t deny That you are a lie Look me in the eye and show me your face Another truth Falls from the sky And you will hide in a war You’re frail inside A parasite Your soul is haunted in the eternity What do you seek? Your cause has failed There is no pain anymore There is no way to run Come on and join me in scorn Sell me the fuel To set you on fire Left apart in the smoke The power slips beyond your control It is your regret Never pass this gate In the darkness stay And everything is ending bad in your escape In your frantic state In your final gain There is no peace in you as you are one of Those with the rotten souls Αwaiting the flames to burn their core Those with the rotten souls The trail that leads to the end of their world Those with the rotten souls Those with the rotten souls Αwaiting the flames to burn their core Those with the rotten souls The trail that leads to the end of their world Those with the rotten souls

Heavy thoughts on your mind Chocking words that you can’t find You drown in sorrow, you cry for help Your tears are pleasing it again It’ll watch you die away It only seeks your praise Exploitation Of your frustration Are you down for the ride? Redemption you come to seek In the end, you are your worst enemy Rejection, as you kiss the icon that feeds on your pain Confession, scream your lies in the sky You threw your soul into the pile No salvation, as you beg the icon that feeds on your pain Darker times in your life Another pain, in control of your mind No path to follow You try to sell Another lie to save yourself It’ll watch you fade away It silently gets its pay Domination Of false perception Are you down for the ride? Redemption you come to seek In the end, you are your worst enemy Rejection, as you kiss the icon that feeds on your pain Confession, scream your lies in the sky You threw your soul into the pile No salvation, as you beg the icon that feeds on your pain Everytime you fail me I haunt your thoughts Everytime you hate me I hate you more Everytime you beg me I eat your soul I eat your soul Redemption you come to seek In the end, you are your worst enemy Rejection, as you kiss the icon that feeds on your pain Confession, scream your lies in the sky You threw your soul into the pile No salvation, as you beg the icon that feeds on your pain

That day has come I warned you I told you to beware of your foul story The trust I’ve never shown you The truths I’ve never told you You’ve washed up on the shores The shores of agony I’m the one that you denied The one that you despised The one who fills with anger and you still defy The one who fought the lies The one who broke the ties The one you thought would try to hide in pain All your greed and all your hate Was never satisfied I realized All your tricks and all your games Were never stigmatized You’re legitimized The times have changed I scorn you I told you to forget of your previous glory The paths I’ve never crossed with you The oaths I’ve never sworn to you You’ve washed up on the shores The shores of agony I’m the one from whom you hide The one you wish to guide The one you never side with and for whom you cry The one who holds the time The one who brings the light The one who gives you sorrow No more fear to the naked eyes Nobody sold you lies Apologize! Flowing signs of your regrets You’re tracing back your steps You’re pitiless This is your final hour This is the time you get To end your verbal slaughter To show that you forget It’s time to look around you This is your final bet To end your cynic laughter And to show you won’t regress Beyond your inner torment You live in solitude You search for some atonement And compromise the truth The consequences are dire There is no turning back You crawl beneath the mire And your pride is under attack The shores The shores The shores The shores The shores The shores Of agony

about

Those with the Rotten Souls is the debut album of the 1-piece melodic death metal band Burning The Forgotten. The band fuses powerful melodies and heavy riffs with blast-beats and groovy rhythms. With an old-school '90s sound production approach, two guitar harmonies, chainsaw bass and guitar sounds, and unpolished screaming vocals, their music will make you want to headbang.

Crafted with meticulous attention, the tracks truly reflect the band's unique vision. Each piece has been thoughtfully recorded, mixed, produced, and mastered to create a raw yet ear-friendly sound, breaking away from the conventional norms of a modern and overly polished production.

In this album, as the title “Those with the Rotten Souls” emphasizes, the band aims to explore the personalities of those who live their life by taking advantage of others, who only care for themselves (lack of emotional intelligence/ empathy), and who gaslight others with lies and deception. In another dimension, do the souls of these resemble the creatures in the album cover art? Sad, depressed, weak, packed all together, slowly slipping into a stream of fire getting ready to be burned?
