about

Traumatone returns with a second full length release! Easily standing out as what could be the best work yet, "Absence of Fear" takes the listener on another lyrical journey through the issues of life in a fallen world and the God who waits to redeem those who are overcome by it. Pulling no punches, the album bursts out of the gate with "Cantexist", an unapologetic charge that there is only one God and one way to Him. From there the next few tracks delve in to the issues of unbelief, bondage to sin, and those who believe they can get away with sin, not thinking that God sees all. "Edge of The End" brings a plea to those who have hit the end of their rope, while "Redemption" is a flat out offer of salvation in Christ. From here, the next couple of tracks paint a portrait of certain death and an eternity based on our choices before it. The album wraps up with "Condemned", an upbeat claim to the reality that those who stand for Christ will be opposed by the world. Download now for FREE!!

Track Name: Cantexist
A god for you, and a god for me
You only wish it was that easy
I worship here, you worship there
Thinking that we'll all be spared
But the problem is there's only one
The only access through His Son
You can have your point of view
But a god who isn't there can't save you

God is known, but the foolish hearts of men won't listen
He stands alone, so forget about the coexistence

People say "to each their own",
"It's only one of many roads", and
"Who are you to say to me
That I am wrong in the way I see?"
Well, the problem is, when all's compared
The common thread just isn't there
We all would love to see the light
But the fact remains we can't all be right
Track Name: Absence of Fear
Some would say "there is no God"
"And if there is, He's nothing but flawed"
"If He's there...", is what they say
"I can reach Him my own way"

They won't believe it, saying it's all lies
Oh, and if they're to believe it, the wicked seek a sign

Raised the dead, but they don't really care
Some would say He wasn't even there
"Who's this Christ? And what's this love?"
"My own efforts are good enough"
This offense is no matter to me
Cause your tongue will confess and you will bow the knee

Harden you heart's to the only way
You'll never know peace to your dying day
Go ahead and live your Godless life
You can only run until the day you die

They can't believe it, saying it's all lies
No, they can't believe it. Alas, we all must die
Track Name: Misery
I'd like to recognize a type of person you might know
The kind of person who just takes life's blows
I know someone who's like this, unhappy every day
Without the strength to walk away

She's someone who always crawls back
She's someone who'll never let it go

Some people never listen, some of us just never learn
We try to tame the fire even though it burns
I know someone who's like this, unhappy every day
Without the strength to walk away

Rain rain, go away, come again some other day
Rain rain, I like to play, please just stay for one more day
Track Name: The Secret
The night is dark and no one's here
Continue on and feel no fear
Your secret's known to no one's eyes
But I prepare to break your life, 'cause
I know your secret, I won't let you keep it

She loves you, but you're unfaithful
The way you treat her is so unfair
I think it's time these lies be paid for
In consequences no one's spared

Carry on your sordid affairs
You have a ring, but you don't care
At home, in bed, a loving wife
I think it's time I destroy your life, 'cause
I know your secret, I won't let you keep it
Track Name: Edge of The End
Some feel the pursuits of life will lead to emptiness and leave you cold and broken.
Some feel that they just can't go on
If you feel this way then won't you cry out to God

Please save me
Life's taking it's toll and I'm losing control
I'm breaking
My heart is distraught and I give it tonight

Some feel they've done it all and there is nothing left under the sun to live for.
Sometimes we hit the bottom just to realize that we must cry out to God

There is coming a change this day
I have never felt this way
It's as if the end could come and it makes no difference to me
I'm wrapped in love (in His love)
Track Name: Redemption
Broken, you've come to be
The venom runs too deep
You're weakened, dead to life
I'll save you from the deadly bite

Whoever you are
Just come and be blessed, and forgiven
Whoever you are
Just come take your place in the kingdom

Precious, come to me
Redemption, you will receive
Salvation, I'll give new life
And never let you die

Whoever you are
Wherever you are
He's waiting, waiting
While you're fading, fading

Whoever you are
Just come and be blessed, and forgiven
Whoever you are
All that He wants is your heart's desire
Track Name: When It's Over
Welcome to life and all the choices set within
The ticking clocks remind we're moving towards the end
The greatest choice of all determines where you go
If you ignore it all, your one chance will be blown

See it your way
Nobody's gonna force you to obey
But there will come a time when you decide
And there will come a day when you must die
And then it's over

So you may think that when it ends there is no life
But still the question cuts your conscience like a knife
Supposing death is no more judgement than the night
You'd better hope with all you are that you are right

You won't break your pride
So He'll warn you one more time
But you won't break your pride
So He'll warn you one more time
Until you break your pride

Most seem to think that if there is a God of love
All good creation gets a life with Him above
But then you stop your ears when preachers say you've sinned.
And God is warning you again and again

One day, you'll die
Track Name: Bleeding out (The March To Death)
Take a trip back to the day it came
Nothing would ever be the same
We became heirs of a thing called sin
And it's leading us all to a certain end

People come and people go
We're marching down this one way road
And we can fight to stay alive
But we just can't stop the bleeding

Some would try to answer the question why
But science can't explain exactly why we die
Some will sadly never give a second thought
That we all have sinned against a holy God

He would not settle for a broken heart
He had a plan to save us from the very start
The question becomes, are you dead to sin?
The answer will lead you to one of two ends

People come and people go
But You're the only One that's known
To conquer death and give new life
'Cause you didn't stop the bleeding
Track Name: Condemned
What you're calling tolerance, I call insane
You scream oppression, and I'm to blame

I believe, and I'm condemned

Just like a roach in light, you run and hide
Rather than hear the truth, you want to die

Run, run, run away
Running to a darker place
Run, run, run away
Running from what you can't face

I try to help you out, you will not hear
You'd rather live your life, and die in fear
