1.	The Builder (Intro) 01:35
2.	We Are Legion 01:46	lyrics
We Are Legion: Now that I'm back on the surface again With the knowledge of ancients, and the guidance of Satan Our prime directive's the same Be the bringer of death And the render of flesh Father, Satan, your will:my task We'll shear this world in half My mind. My bones. My sight. My wrath. I offer these gifts for the bloodbath. Under the guidance of He Who Is Not leaching purpose- burning rot We are Legion- for we are the many We are Next We're descending down Let go of your pleasure, let go of your pain Let go of the last shred of man that remains inside.
3.	Egotrip 02:30	lyrics
Egotrip: In the presence of gods My skull is the sky without bounds All for nothing. It crumbles away from me Reaching may rattle their chains They may hold my fate but they'll not slow the ice in my veins Sow seeds of the shepherd's gift And reap dreams of dissent We're all fading away into emptiness Nothing's wrong- nothing's left These screams of torment And the ocean spray's cold- I shall bury you deep with the head of the steed that will carry you home! Blasphemy- As flesh became earth I am one My blood birthed thew seas And my words were all fed to the Sun I am pain- I am joy I am all that is not And they've named me The Void Sow seeds of the shepherd's gift What we harvest is lies We're all rotting away in this emptiness Empty souls- empty lives And it tears me apart when I think I made promises knowing these days slip away from me Splitting old wounds And this goes to the trodden And this goes to the meek All the people who're made afraid to speak And this goes to the rotten And those cast on the rocks... There's blackness in all our thoughts.
4.	Chemtrailertrash 01:17	lyrics
Chemtrailertrash: War torn- Raised among the frail and weak There's no quarter And no martyrs There's never enough, we need more and more This all will end If you look through your brow And you talk through your teeth You see Nothing And say Nothing It should sicken you down to the core (to the core) This all must end Bleeding out- nearly whittled to the bone And our lives are forfeit without our phones No, there is no peace Till we summon the beast We're all shedding the chains For honor
5.	Cuntempt 02:20	lyrics
Cuntempt Stare away and don't focus Nothing good can come out of the truth With a flash it invades my peripheral It's made of the wind that wounds We're the last of the chosen We're the last real connection with pain Will they ravage and tear us to shreds? Will the children remember our names at all? The foundation is weak, but she'll last It's the last time i break my back This is righteous This is fate It's the place where our promises break This is wrath Razor's rusted This is payback This is Justice We're the beast with the proof that He wept... We live in contempt How can you smile with a face full of lies? Just under the skin Prodding, protruding and teasing to rise It's waiting to surface again We're the elders in black With our feet firmly nailed to the cross And we've gathered this horrible night To take back what we have lost The foundation is crumbled and cracked Is it fate that's been holding us back? Aren't we all just waiting to die? Hold your breath it's the end of the line We're the martyrs of common sense We live in contempt
6.	Breaking Bones with Breath 04:32	lyrics
Breaking Bones with Breath It's the lice that bother me the most Dry veins Dry tears And it keeps them from coming alive again As it's done for a thousand years And I've got more pride than sense More to fools than these fiends do I recompense And this Dry... When we no longer look to the stars To seek answers to who we really fucking are Fuck it! All these thing's I've said These things I fuckin' said Although it bears repeating, listen close- my dying breath As it shatters these walls! That I built with my bare hands These walls And they cannot be raised again We'll wait For the dark this time, for the evening to swallow us up When the night's upon us lay out candles, fill my cup And we'll sacrifice! For my sins I can never go home For my sins are not only my own I'll rise again I'll writhe again But in the end- the whole damn world will be fucked Shit! It's the fear that makes us brag and boast Dry veins Dry tears And it keeps them from coming alive again As it's done for a thousand years I've got more pride than sense More to fools than these fiends do I recompense And this Dry... When we no longer look to the stars To seek answers to who we really fucking are
7.	Amen and Goddamn 02:29	lyrics
Amen and Goddamn When the storm has cleared And the sides are all counted The blood will outweigh the flesh When we've both drawn a line And we summon the priests To collect the souls of the dead Amen and Goddamn And while our spirit breaks You're just polishing your cross And it makes me think- Is this shit as good as it gets? Bleeding heart's lethargic shift When we sift through the pieces that's left We're wasted And we're wasting our breath It bores me to death Fuck! Burn these thoughts before they breed For dignity Like a moth to flame It seemed so right before we burned And it had to end like this You're not wrong But not living And not the story that we tell And it brings you joy to see me fail...again Is it good enough? good enough? Is it good enough for you? Last ditch attempt Is it good enough? good enough? good enough? good enough for you? We'll raze and waste this land Burn these buildings to the ground The thieves an depraved We'll all be saved You're blind and it fits Yeah they won't mourn for long So just get it through your head Amen and Goddamn
8.	The Destroyer 02:15	lyrics
The Destroyer Destroy! This life cause we don't want it back We won't take excuses may we try to stay on track to Destroy! Put an end to this reign and it's famine Nothing short of the bomb can repair all the damages done All we have left is regrets. The rest is Gone, wasted The scar of the Earth We'll poison the wind And nullify this curse Ye faithless- you'll be first With the greatest of purpose and grace I will honor my father Remember his face Now's the time-break the chains We'll be saved It's the suffering And it gets no better the further we get from the center of all of this grief For our sins, for our crimes We'll be fed to the beast with the black gnashing teeth. He'll Destroy! Stare eternity dead in the face and not blink This is war and we feed on the weak Destroy! Cut these ties off at the bone No refuge, no comfort, no rest and no home
9.	Do We Float? 03:38

about

Raise to Ruin started as an experimental demo focusing on violence and dark subject material that quickly became a much longer passion project. What came out was a 9 track EP that's basically designed to be loud and relentless. A full length album is in the works with an extended roster and expanded musical themes.
