An even strobe a pulse of flashing
Hatelights of synthetic souls massproduced Hammered into shape a sign of times dreams Turn into systems a new way a new breed Implanted in our minds Here I am in the hand of a sterile hate The new control I can not wake I'm not a sleep New intelligence arise in emptied bodies Turgid flesh tested through eternal exestince Do not know codes mother machine Genocide now scorn a dying race Evolution in reverse now it's time for me Changing what am I to be Contorted an eternity defeated Programmed to appease you we're symbols of Perfection humanoids runed by your laws Destroy erase improve lesson first Submission we're docile servant dogs Our leashes are your limbs Computed deep within Remoted minds controlled our thoughts no More doubts the new way is here disgorged Another thousands fakes that obey to a Circuit skin to vacuum Mechanical thoughts I now concieve No longer me always to see inanity Millions to be units like me eternally Human patterns copied dissected distorted Completed to fit the machine The nerve fibres give in to cords To the unknown See me be me same contents same machine The currency of ours no more flesh and bone We are to be unaware of what we have been before Evolution in reverse now it's time for me Changing what am i to be contorted An eternity defeated by a new machine. 02. Beneath
It's time to go into the me below
My morbid self beneath A peril trip the last way out I spin as i let go In spirals down the narrow lines Passing through my aura Spit me out into my mind A journey through disease I'm behind my cynic eyes That stare but can not see The sickness in me ... beneath ... I fall in untruthful me the essence of My thoughts Swirling in a thousand vows endless Truthless What am i this me beneath A vain organic lie That rules me from inside Immobile now i bow before reality itself It's substance moving through my eyes My life is transferred once suffused upon My mind the view erases burns inside And then another fall I plunge into a well of lies a cold Perennial flow the vortex of my soul 03. Soul Burn
Inner perception trapped in a soul cage
Human wreckage i leave my liquid face Who am i sense blurred who's my mind In this life obscured Visual progressions leave me no peace Subliminal merger clutch the Fence of needs What's there in desperation what's real Flawless confusion Void of emptyness reign my truth Before my eyes flashes of youth Memory-nuances pass where's my life Frayed pictures mass Insidious deception feelings fade Reenous mirrors i praise the Blackened day What am i to reality what's in line Subsequently Forever turning through a lifetime Endless burning of soul and mind Step by step i'm taken through the past To burn in fear of lies i'm lost mouldering Oblivions grasp makes my soul burn Burn This astray mind has sieged my soul Forever chained to this tearing cold I'll never tell the truth from lies Disbelief covers my eyes i'm lost mouldering Perpetual pain in this soul burn Pieces to me strange wrapped up disguise Reflections of myself in another life I see it vague before my eyes Pictures drawn of naked bare lies It makes no sense to live this mess Constant until i find my rest Enemy within a soul in flames Gaining it's pulse breeding inside Pressure increase drowns my belief As i unveil myself in me Burn 04. Transfixion
Trapped in a gaze where time stand still
Connected to a blur sensations deformed We are to drown just to become Another set of eyes among the millions Enchanted we fade selecting illusions Dwellers of the scene a new world obsessed Gods of displays divine screens Radiate us now your blessing Down kneel to shields of glass To the sovereign Bleed for the entity of wavelenghts Transfixed yet eyes glowing with delight Delusions of omniscience bred us my liars Mentally drained by the growing leech Fed on our manic desire Oceans of sewage continual Washing into our minds Drowning in wasted integrity With eyes too open to see vanity Engulfed in super fiction fields What are we when the false pictures Dissolve Caged within a twilight world Devoid of own self made thoughts Stare blind ... 05. Vanished
Convalescent livid we succumb
Stagnation now complete This is the new plague called Unconsciousness We're selfcaged in defeat Clotted minds coagulate we are trapped Inside the tears we obey resignate to our Self-inflected fears Voices calm will be never heard In this mode who will change Bantised in our minds so absurd Is this the world sublime Into pools of paranoia we're fading with Reality drained by lies we are al inhuman Introspective vanishing Sterile thoughts now upraised in subhuman Majesty bodies numb still enchained Where am i in hell of our dreams Wrong wrong i'm in the now the vain reality So it seems we're dying yet content Worship our chrysalis stage since when are Lies devine Since when This is now degrade indulge This is us servile obliging Swallowed by our hunger for mendacity As this dance whirls deeper into hate We're vanishing In down deep cold where am i caught cage Trapped not in dreams now time has killed Our eyes fall fade gone dead away 07. Inside What's Within Behind
I can't run away from the thing in me
I'm weakening down another now developing Within I can feel it it's inside my head Connected to my brain this other me is Slowly taking over deep beneath the Eye that All can see energetic visions of the one I know myself to be Look into my eyes don't listen to their lies How can i stop this from being real No my life will be no longer what it always Used to be Life neglected infected by strain I fall into the smothering the even Flow of Ravaging pain this my temple of selfcaged Contempt a body slowly pierced by Inevitable me Do i differ from yourself am i like They say The truth eventually i'm the one you Wanna be Can you feel the same as i another inside Pushing to free itself from the chains Of the soul Turn your eyes toward the inside Dig deep within i'm sure you'll find A different self a different soul To put you in peace with mind 08. Terminal Illusions
I don't need religion
God bless no one Me and my own opinions Are written by me You surrender Under mass hypnosis Bound to illusions Produced by your god Who is humane Real alive no god I see your blindness Erase your identity Your mind is hollow Carved to inability I know to be Loyal to myself My integrity leaves myself Alone in peace with me God There's no god Life is a trap Unlock your mind Trust in yourself Wake from the grip of the tongue You've been choked oppressed God owns god cheats god lies God hates god kills god slays The pressure on humanity Has risen beyond control We are leading evolution Into termination The sense of hate Inbreeding scars to innocence Genetic prejudice a Selfdestructive line in pain Why this reality Life poured into inanity 09. Suffer In Truth
Tortured soul ripping skin into ashes
Blind by pain deaf by lies Smell of freedom violently cuts Forgiveness Power to a being never dies Suffer in truth's narrow passage saw Weak solutions stabbed to now know The smile of obliterations face Penetrating through the void of life A dance with the dead Buried in oblivion stolen from the mind Constant starving never fed Contamined life is fading Laughing in my face Suffer in deception Manipulated not to feel Slain beleifs abandoned dreams A life of misery Suffer in truth The wounds of a soul in pain A mirror of life Dreams all in vain Life will always be sealed I see ... unseen I feel ... unseen Suffer in truth 10. Sublevels
Back again within myself
Asleep but aware i'm lost again Every time i close my eyes I enter the dream to which i'm strained A sudden change into a state Where life is dust And everything flow Circling above swirling seas Of eyes upraised toward the unknown Vapour masques in the leaden air Unleashed by death in a grubby dawn Vacant faces reflecting sorrow Hidden inside senses disowned A maze of glass shattered by thoughts Of a faltered soul freed in bliss Clouds disperse revealing shades Tempting my soul i can't resist A vision of morbidity Of ragged silent shadows Dressed in black disease They're closing up on me Peering lifeless weary eyes They drag me down into Another world inside of me Paralyzed by the view Hypnotized let me wake Mesmerized by the flames as i return Into myself a slow conversion a silent Change i wake into the brightened day |
