"Dear friends, it's time to make a very difficult but necessary announcement. We have decided that The Agonist as a band, has come to an end. Much deliberation and care has been put into making this decision, and unfortunately, given the circumstances, this is the conclusion that makes the most sense for the band and us as individuals."

...And Their Eulogies Sang Me to Sleep

All I heard was the sound of fish who'd drowned All I saw was the inside of my eyelids All I said fell short of reaching open ears

Words floating, clouding the view "See no, hear no, speak no evil" Leaves you deaf, dumb and blind Because the bad is all you'll find

A deeply heart-felt goodbye To the part of me that died when I decided To put others before me Yes, my heart fell asleep, boredom and fatigue

I always said I wanted to die smiling To pretend I'm at peace Now from my corpse beams a frigid, blank grin And once hopeful eyes are sunken in

Like a lullaby to the cradle Is the eulogy to the casket All my flaws swept under the table To grieve the porcelain doll that was me

Their solemn songs sang me to sleep As my body escaped me Their solemn songs sang me to sleep As my body...

Such a shameful masquerade Fleeting, frozen minutes on display Why is evolution such a shameful thing to say? Can you feel your bodily decay?

Because I can, sure as hell, feel my brain going blank If my body betrays me, there's pollution to thank This condition infects my cells, like it controls my mind Internal army, defend me behind enemy lines!

Fragile vehicle of mine Don't abandon me yet There is so much to live for That we so easily forget

Fascination with the fear The concept escapes me All encompassing fate How it wrenches our hearts

Torments our souls And sings us all to sleep To an eternal keep No matter what beliefs It sweetly sings us all

Globus Hystericus

What says the tree to his friends the rocks? When he lives and breathes and they sit and mock And he grows strong for centuries long But finally dies and begins to rot

"We will last intact this way! And you my friend, my friend you will soon decay" "But I can breathe – am commensal The shade, the fruits, the nests on bough And if, with this, my time finite I'm glad to have spent it doing right" But rocks prefer to simply sit To win none, lose none, just exist

But nary should an ocean rise They'd become sand and disappear with the tides When trees ignite a cyclical life from plant to animal to Earth and back Whom, even when their roots are plowed, have left exponential impact

Steel, concrete, technology may stand intact for centuries I say with actions... But faced with wind, flood or quake, like toys will crumble, bend and break ...What you do with words

And so the greedy, the greedy human kind To conquer trees tall, mountains high Erects gigantic splinters of steel That shame forests, make mountains kneel

And progress spreads like moss on stone Evolution dictates that men are prone To outdo those that came before "You see? We'll last forever more!"

We improve what nature made We'll challenge mountains, transplant lakes There is no confirmed master plan We do it just because we can

But foolish is the one who complacently thinks himself King Because when time erodes the past what remains are nature's things Quite Shakespearean duals those between parent and offspring are! As Chronos devours his son Gaia to Mankind so starts

Steel, concrete, technology may stand intact for centuries I say with actions... But faced with wind, flood or quake, like toys will crumble, bend and break ...What you do with words

We won't outlive our generation, but our impact surely will This, the Rocks' humiliation, when they witness we are still Alive in what we've left for others, like Nature gives, so selflessly So pay respect to our true Mother and take your rank amongst the trees
