Cryptopsy je death metalová skupina z Kanady. Založili ji Mike Atkin (bicí), Steve Thibault (kytara) a Lord Worm (zpěv) pod názvem "Necrosis". Toto jméno používali až do roku 1992, kdy se přejmenovali na dnešní "Cryptopsy".
Within these words
I'll hide the contempt for the purpose I serve.
Silently, I withhold my resolve
And pursue, while my dignity dissolves
A bit more everyday...
I'll hold on to the end
And fight my resentment.
You see, I have succumbed
In order to complete
What must be done.
Stand tall, to keep faith and fight.
Take up arm
And prepare, for the, onslaught.
Prepare yourself.
Concealed in shadows
There are weaknesses.
I have uncloaked them
To reveal their impurities.
I lay, concealed, awake
In hopes of finding safety from their
Unrelenting, beatings
Which they have organized in spite
Of all, your own, actions
Which we have followed to a "T"
But we, have been, displaced
We have been driven from our course.
The battle rages on
As my mind begins to sway.
I am redeemed through consequence
But my guilt is still in play.
But the fact of the matter is
Is that I've sacrificed,
Everything I am
While I was standing here for you.
Prepare yourself, just save yourself.
There is no escaping
We must strive to alter fate,
In order to recover
From this faltered state.
Within these words, I hid the contempt
For the purpose I served silently.
I withheld my resolve, and pursued
While my dignity dissolved.
