Solitude - From Within lyrics



Tracks



01. Twisted

There's no safety no hiding from the fear planted in you
Repulsion the vile thoughts of me forever burned into your mind
Threatening wall of fear
Can't you feel me thriving on this tension
This domination
Feeding on your helpless soul
I'm laughing as you sink into submission
Into submission

Emotion the inner pain raked into you that time shall never heal
Aggression the rush of domination, how it fuels my sick desire
Sickening guilt and fear
Weave you in the web of my obsession
This violation
Can you feel me drawing near from my grasp you know there's no protection
Just puire aggression

Time moves forward
Endless cycle
I will assist you in building your wall
You can't escape
Scars that mark you
Because in your world
Reality answers to me

Fighting is useless
Resist mindless
You won't go through me
'Cause I am like stone
You'll not sway me
Helpless plaything there's no sense in crying
When your tears they fall unto me

02. No Future

Sinking fast in angry seas
Going down like lead
Cast the anchor around your neck
Along with lies you fed
Like the weed that chokes out life
A human parasite
Holding back all you infect
Pathetic shameless plight

Climb back to your hole
Now your life is over
Kill your chance to be
Only getting older
Lie any fool could see
Practiced occupation
Fade away from me
Cast into damnation

Lies you can't deny
A part of your deception
Hide what's in your mind
It gives you no protection
Sell your tears to me
Desperation's endless
Fool you'll alway be
Broken,tired,rejected

Idiot did you believe
The lies within your head
Betraying everyone you know
With all the lies you fed
Not a drop of self respect
Use all my patience left
Not a friend a waste of time
Weakness you project

03. Tipping The Balance

Constantly with your fingers in my face
No regard for anyone's chosen ways
Self centered you're tipping the balance
Loneliness fills your numbered days
A bottle gives
A false sense of power
Addiction gives you all of the power you need
You make me wish that you were dead
Back the fuck off 'cause I can't breath

Chipping away at my patience
A broken man you're destined to portray

Always having the last word to say
You're tipping the balance - tipping the balance
Emptiness it fill your final days
Endlessly you're tipping the balance

Putting me down makes you feel like a man
My opinion doesn't exist in your head
Hold back - exploding in anger
Crossing the line - push me over the edge
Live life from inside a bottle
Common sense just doesn't add up to you
Impact smashes against your face
Grown tired of hearing your old news

Chipping away at my patience
A broken man you're destined to portray

Always having the last word to say
You're tipping the balance - tipping the balance
Emptiness it fill your final days
Endlessly you're tipping the balance

Always
Shoving your opinions down my throat
Old man
Poisoning my honor with your bullshit

Tipping the balance - tipping the balance
Always having the last word to say
Emptiness it fill your final days
A broken man you're destined to portray
You're tipping the balance - tipping the balance

04. Alter The Red

Time now for liberation
Time now to break the grip
Constitute a system of freedom
Alter the red
Break free from oppression
Fracture the walls of strenght
Imprisoned by the minds of elders
Hel in control

Stripped - of your life
Dominate stripped - of your fate
Genocide
Genocide

Lost sight closed consciousness
Clouded vision time to wake
Re-define internal righteousness
Their ways are best
Restrain government closure
Forbidden authority
Monopolize cycle of power
Sanctify
Sanctify

Stripped - of your life
Dominate stripped - of your fate
Genocide
Genocide

05. Mind Pollution

Breeding - mind pollution
A legacy of hate
Infecting the legions of the blind
Falling - victim of non-communication
Sowing seed of needless tension
Strangled by these attitudes of the past

Erecting walls with massive tension
Remember camps of concentration
Mindless acts of violence
We've seen them fail before
Downward spiral quickly turning
Racial riots tempers burning
Endlessly we're never learning
From our past mistakes

And it's
Mind pollution
Mind pollution

Filled with ignorant frustration
Smothered by its suffocation
Prejudice and violence
Will always be the same
Vicious people hate is churning
People dying crosses burning
Self destructive suicide
Will always be the game we play

And it's
Mind pollution
Mind pollution

06. From Within

[Instrumental]

07. The Afterlife

Pollution's plan has overcome us
Final execution done
Stricken down by consumation
Mass cremation has begun
Buried in a cloud of toxins
A victim of the machine
Sulphur skies bow down to welcome
A world of concrete grey

Now we forge
A shattered world that swarms about us
Timeless scourge
The endless dark descends upon us
Time is gone
Extinction's wrath will not forgive thee - fatal plight
Entombed by a hopeless cold reality

Cause industrial
The poisoned earth a firm testimonial
To solve
Impossible
The damage done is now irreversible
Calamity,monstrosity
A tortured world that breeds anormality
The downfall phenomenal
The toxic winters clutch astronomical

Desperate fight
The death of life the birth of ruin
Laid to waste
Environmental desecration
In the wake
Of corporal injure and infiltration
There's no escape
No one succeeeds obliteration

The cause industrial
The poisoned earth a firm testimonial
To solve
Impossible
The damage done now irreversible
The sole malignancy
The bane projected to vast enormity
Hopelesness seldomly lies

08. A Loss Of Blood

Watching my world crumble
Falling down around my feet
I witness countless murders
Neighbours and my family
Dying voices haunting me
With their songs of misery
I do not control this
Violence between these states
A part of this destruction
Which this war gladly creates

I am staring
At this blood upon my hands
Destructive madness
I cannot understand

In the name of freedom
I cut down my fellow man
At war with my own country
This I cannot understand
Death it comes in
Like the tide
Violence does not subside
Mass destruction greets me
Embraces me with open arms
Paints a bloody picture
Of crumbled towns and burned out farms

I am staring
At this blood upon my hands
Destructive madness
I cannot understand

Blood is on my hands
North and south are now divided
Blood is on my hands
A loss of blood

Blood is on my hands
North and south are now divided
Blood is on my hands
A loss of blood

09. The Empty

There can be no mdoubt
I've been cast aside like worthless garbage
There can be no doubt
Empty listless faces are surrounding me
There has been no respect for my seniority
And you can't understand the fucking empty
It swallows me
And you surely cannot feel my pain
Or understand what it is to be ignored

See me
I've been locked away like a violent criminal
Hear me
The only crime I've committed has been my age
I'm reeling
In the overwhelming hate which I feel for you
I'm loathing
The thought that I'll exist another day

There can be no doubt
That besides these eyes resides a captive
There can be no doubt
In my younger years no one restricted me
But now the thought of death - I find it conforts me
Still no one understands - the fucking empty
Death beckons me
But I know you will not ease my pain
And my request for death will be ignored

See me
I've been locked away like a violent criminal
Hear me
The only crime I've committed has been my age
I'm reeling
In the overwhelming hate which I feel for you
I'm loathing
The thought that I'll exist another day

10. Poisoned Population

Poisoned population
Scientific failure brings to life
Unyielding horror
A life of degradation
Thalidomides mutation
For thousands spells frustrations
Administrative figures turn their heads

Eight thousand lives back in sixty two
Crippling disease no had a clue
Born to this world disfigured and lame
Government approved see them shift the blame
How can they boast scientific skills
Pumping in poison through the hospital
How could they think a sorry could suffice
Thousands of children
Unreasonable price

Fail - our children pay
Pain - for your mistake
life

Fail - our children pay
Pain - for your mistake

Life - life without limbs

11. In This Life

My innocence I can remember
A sea of lies that I can't ignore
And I recall your outstretched hands the promises
Behind your back with your fingers crossed

I no longer can force myself
To believe in useless fantasy
Nor can I fathom that your love is true reality
How many times will I turn my back
Choosing the place for the knife
The love the hope the dreams the lies
The things I can't conceive
In this life

So few things exist in this life
On which I can depend
Placing my trust and faith in your love
This lie I won't defend
From this isolation I am dying to break free
The pain the hate the fear the lies
The things I can't conceive

Ignorance, innocence
There is no difference
Truth in life consists of pain

My ignorance I can remember
A sea of lies that I can't ignore
And I recall the painful contradiction

Behind your back with your fingers crossed

12. Side Winder

Blasphemy evangelistic gain
Prophecy humiliates your name
Ministry slips into black
Cheat and lie to win them back
Watch the angry mob destroy and curse your name

Eulogy condemning you to shame
Hypocrite hypocrisies your game
Miserable unholy wretch
Time for you to pay the debt
In the fiery hole it waits to call your name

Trapped like a rat but you try to make it work for you
Caounter attack that your pure but we all know it's true
Slashing your throat with a razor made of pointed words
Should stifle your boisterous mouth
Evangelistic turd

Draining their pockets repaying them with
Two faced lies
Pointing the fingers at us as you rob them blind
Molding the minds of your zombies like they're
Made of clay
This is the end of the line
And now it's time to pay
