lyrics
(Music: Charles Elliott/Mike Cosio/Scott Fuller)
Time moves in this vicious endless circle
Fulfilling the so called will of the divine
To enter this world alive is the same as when we die
Crawling on our knees in service of time
Chorus:
Chasing a dream you cannot seem to forget
Mistakes that you’ve made remembered in your dying breath
Time has a way of collecting its debts
Bringing us closer to death
Time adds to the weight upon heavy shoulders
With the knowledge that you will surely die
(Chorus)
Feel the decay of your life
Cruelty is false eternity
For the ones immortal in their own minds
We’re born and raised to die
There’s no meaning to this life
Indebted to a God enslaved by time
Man is a servant enslaved by time
God is a servant enslaved by…
Time moves in this vicious endless circle
Fulfilling the so called will of the divine
There is no time for regret only regret with time
The fountains of your youth have run dry
(Chorus)
Time moves in this vicious endless circle
Fulfilling the so called will of the divine
To enter this world alive is the same as when we die
Crawling on our knees in service of time
Chorus:
Chasing a dream you cannot seem to forget
Mistakes that you’ve made remembered in your dying breath
Time has a way of collecting its debts
Bringing us closer to death
Time adds to the weight upon heavy shoulders
With the knowledge that you will surely die
(Chorus)
Feel the decay of your life
Cruelty is false eternity
For the ones immortal in their own minds
We’re born and raised to die
There’s no meaning to this life
Indebted to a God enslaved by time
Man is a servant enslaved by time
God is a servant enslaved by…
Time moves in this vicious endless circle
Fulfilling the so called will of the divine
There is no time for regret only regret with time
The fountains of your youth have run dry
(Chorus)

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulceratesupported by 22 fans who also own “In Service Of Time”
The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel.

Hidden History of the Human Race
by Blood Incantationsupported by 22 fans who also own “In Service Of Time”
never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too.
