02. In Your Words
A sacred cash cow with sickly tits
Dripping temptation for hypocrites to death she's beaten The prosperous endlessly stating the obvious Caught in your words, sever the knot this time Somebody show me their true face Face me once as I leave all that I despise Face me as I unleash this hate refined Indict the blameless Transparent designs Pathetic and shameless Crucified A legend in his own mind, enthroned by lies A cheap Machiavelli plots his demise Caught in your words, sever the knot this time Somebody show me their true face Face me once as I leave all that I despise Face me as I unleash this hate refined Face me as I leave all this far behind Face me as I unleash this hate refined What once gave life Now infested with plague The lamb lies with maggots Blinded, gagged, betrayed What once gave life Now infested with plague The lamb lies with maggots The corpse bloated with rage 03. Set To Fail
You want to blame me for the way you hate yourself
You think you can find who you are in someone else Criticize to better your relative positioning You've got a long way to go So go and weave your tale of woe Convincing yourself it's so You're so set to fail Somewhere you've finally lost your way Only yourself left to betray A nameless heir apparent, paranoid despair You take great measure to appear like you don't care Precision and persuasion must precede the proper lie You've lost it before you began So go and weave your tale of woe Convincing yourself it's so you're so set to fail Somewhere you've finally lost your way Only yourself left to betray 04. Contractor Music & lyrics by Lamb Of God
Chopping lines in international sand
Feeding blood junky habits of the elephant man Quenching his thirst with Black Water rising Executive outcomes on a burning horizon Yeah motherfucker, let's take a ride We're rolling route Irish, someone has got to die Trick or treat, it's IEDs So roll the dice as we leave, cause It's 8 miles of pure luck with more bang for Sam's buck Guaran-fucking-teed Someone will bleed Guaran-fucking-teed Someone will bleed Privatize to conceal all the lies Big business is boomin' like its the 4th of July No need for all the formalities Jump the kangaroo courts and plant the lynching trees Yeah motherfucker, let's take a ride Running red lights in a green zone, someone has got to die Hidden Aegis, nothing here to see So load the dice for me please, and Let's snort the bottom line Crude cashed into refined Guaran-fucking-teed Just sign the deed Guarn-fucking-teed Someone will bleed Someone has got to die Ours is not to reason why Ours is but to do if the pay rate's right Black liquid assets fuck the Mujaheddin Paint their picket fences red with the American dream Lay your hammer hammer down, get the job done right Jacked up and clocked in into a fire fight Covert reactions and ya never saw me A glass parking lot in the American dream They all die Fucking murder Guaran-fucking-teed Someone will bleed Guaran-fucking-teed Lay your hammer hammer down, get the job done right Jacked up and clocked in into a fire fight Covert reactions and ya never saw me A glass parking lot in the American dream 05. Fake Messiah
Everything you've ever begged me to be
Could never have meant any less to me Everything you've ever asked me to say It's so far away from the truth Fake messiah Stitches sown in your eyes Fake messiah Prophecy now denied Over and over and ever again Defending your insignificance Useless intent hidden behind your mask A coward's voice... Anonymous So far away from the truth Fake messiah Stitches sown in your eyes Fake messiah Prophecy now denied Fake messiah Open mouth, drawing flies Fake messiah Prophecy now denied Generation failure Suspended in irrelevance Slit you wide open Just to see what you're made of So far away from the truth... Fake messiah Stitches sown in your eyes Fake messiah Prophecy now denied Fake messiah Open mouth, drawing flies Fake messiah Prophecy now denied 06. Grace
Broken, Bones and the will
Capacity to disappear in misery saves Soaking, pain as a thrill, hate to instill Compassion's a cage Forgiving the father Read the story on my skin I'll be the martyr Falling from his grace again Sunken, sooner or later We crawl our way back into our favorite hole Drunken, swallow the savior And follow him to hang from the highest pole Forgiving the father Read the story on my skin Tell me more about the man I should have been I'll be the martyr Falling from his grace again This is where the end begins 07. Broken Hands
I can feel your fear and weakness
I see my own in the mirrors of your eyes Carved into a corner hopeless There's death ahead and doom behind There's a bad storm blowing in And most of us won't make it The wreckage of your past Means nothing now, forsake it The memories cripple you You're torn apart, your doubt must Die It only fell apart 'cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands It only fell apart 'cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands Well there's those that do And those that just do talking We're all going through hell It's burn or keep on walking The blackguards sing their shanty Pure death riding the wind Right now it's do or die Now will you choose to live The memories that ruin you You're torn apart your doubt must Die It only fell apart 'cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands It only fell apart 'cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands You best delay self-pity Locked in devastation's throes The noose waits you swinging A blade of malice cuts the rope Hostility ensues, no attempt to repent your struggles vindicate the illest of intent Die It only fell apart 'cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands It only fell apart 'cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands 08. Dead Seeds
And you may tremble before hell's gates
You may watch as the heavens fall And you may slight the hands of fate You may heed the siren's call And you may reach every golden shore Witness repent in the heathen And you may dance in the sands of the war You may sleep in the cradle of Eden Betrayed your prophets Dead seeds buried deep An army of none We'll prey on the weak And you may walk through the river run dry You may strike down the giant with stone And you may never again speak a lie Confess every sin and atone And you may drink from the infidel's blood As their civilization collapses You may rejoice in the cleanse of the flood And stare into the face of apocalypse Betrayed your prophets Dead seeds buried deep An army of none We'll prey on the weak You will not comprehend Or find words that will describe The will of God and man Until you watch someone die Betrayed your prophets Dead seeds buried deep An army of none We'll prey on the weak 09. Everything To Nothing
Then you wake...
Another body bag, pathetic, Picture frame obituary faded in the attic A shadow of someone you used to be You've seen so many in these flames And swore that you'd never become the cliche A long forgotten memory And when you wake... Everything you ever wanted Everything you never had Everything learned forgotten and dead Everything turns to nothing another day, a little dirt for the grave Is it worth everything that you gave What a beautiful way to waste away Consumed by dependency A lesson in despondency A long forgotten memory And when you wake... Everything you ever wanted Everything you never had Everything learned forgotten and dead Everything turns to nothing And when you wake... How quickly the master Turns into the slave Slowly succumbing more Every dying day Everything you ever wanted Everything you never had Everything learned forgotten and dead Everything turns to nothing 10. Choke Sermon
Sermon sung me slow to sleep
Faster if I had a choice With every breath another death Still so in love with your own voice Idle threats to hide regrets Excuses serve to bide the time Cover tracks, double back We summon silence so divine Greeted with a thundering absence of applause Choke on your own words Lies are venom in your veins Burn from the inside And never speak my name Jesus complex, gag reflex Trigger happy redundancy No thrill, no chase, no saving grace Hypnotic in monotony Loaded with a salt rock shot You say you're everything you're not What might have been is all you've got From here and now you're dead to me Greeted with a thunderous absence of applause Choke on your own words Lies are venom in your veins Burn from the inside And never speak my name Nothing will ever erase Or undo your disgrace A lonely self-embrace They've long forgotten you Still cling to what it was A lost and hopeless cause Forever mourning your loss They've long forgotten you Murdered slowly in minute increments of time Pissing up a rope Another moment passes by Choke on your own words Lies are venom in your veins Burn from the inside And never speak my name 11. Reclamation
Humanity's a failed experiment
Walking the path to extinction Spinning it's wheels endlessly Grease them with oil and uranium The earth will shake and the waters will rise The elements reclaim what was taken The skyline is set ablaze with regret Ashes cover a falling silhouette The city will reap what it's sewn and ignite Watching as the city burns tonight Blindly consuming mass manufactured faith Mankind is a festering parasite Relentlessly draining it's host dry Nailing belief to a cross of genocide The elements reclaim what was taken The skyline is set ablaze with regret Ashes cover a falling silhouette The city will reap what it's sewn and ignite Watching as the city burns tonight Only after the last tree's cut And the last river poisoned Only after the last fish is caught Will you find that money cannot be eaten And everything becomes irrelevant As the sky tears open Fire rains down, the fourth world comes to an end Push the button light the match feel the fault lines detach Crosshairs in the evening light I sit and watch the city burn tonight The city burns tonight 12. We Die Alone
[Verse 1]
A moment in time worthy only of solitude. A stranger not meant for another to see. Are we the abandoned? Are we the deserter? Lived in the night so his wickedness way. The faces light up their screens, as the wealthy cash in on the war. The body counts rise, the ratings will soar. Another deceiver. The liar, the patriot. Counting the lies and keeping the score. The score. [Pre-chorus:] Look at the light based on faith that deserts you. You are the hunted, the victim, the prey and the fallen. [Chorus:] We die alone. [Verse 2] A lamb in the line has been lead to the slaughter. Another to join all the ghosts from before. (Join all the ghosts from before.) Another believer, another casualty. Can't tell the way out from a drain to the floor. The floor. [Pre-chorus] [Chorus] 13. Shoulder Of Your God
Death lies eternal
A heathen rapture consumes the light Impaled on its axis, The world around me lays down to die Immaculate contraception The massive beating, opiate Apocalyptic conception, Planted, its seething reprobates Unremitting desolation There is no reprieve The end goes The angel's eyes are gouged with tragedy The end goes The fallen host endure mortality The end goes A black pasteur, devoid of the shepherd, where you choose to dwell Venomous concepts, Catalyst of damnation. Unease filtered through chemical haze (You're so far gone.) Sole purveyor of your own unrest. Go cry on the shoulder of your god (You're so far gone.) The catalyst of damnation. A lone voice in the void, There is no reprieve. The end goes No answer will be found to the endless Why The end goes Deeds done in darkness will always come to light The end goes. A black pasteur, devoid of the shepherd, where you choose to dwell Venomous concepts, Catalyst of damnation Unease filtered through chemical haze (You're so far gone) Sole purveyor of your own unrest Go cry on the shoulder of your god (You're so far gone) The catalyst of damnation The nephlim walk the earth again Primordial chaos resurrected The divine narcotic strung-out seraphim The catalyst, catalyst of damnation In the code of life, a spiral death, a rattle from within The healing sties, no answers lie in a world without end Venomous concepts, Catalyst of damnation. Unease filtered through chemical haze (You're so far gone.) Sole purveyor of your own unrest Go cry on the shoulder of your god (You're so far gone) The catalyst of damnation 14. Condemn The Hive
Soon come a burning,
Soon come a reaving, Spare the rod, spoil the child, Resume the righteous beating. Hubris has been spoon-fed to you, On a silver platter, The weak will run weeping, Delusion shattered. No one, owes you a god damn thing. Bloated with pride, the privileged ones, A walking portrayal, your life's fucking done, Bloated with pride, the privileged ones, Condemn the hive. The well's run dry, Narcissist fills it with tears of blood. Poison Juno's choking lapdog deepen the cut. No one, cares what the fuck you think. Bloated with pride, the privileged ones, A walking portrayal, your life's fucking done, Bloated with pride, the privileged ones, Condemn the hive. Say goodbye, worthless beginners, Severed all reason, in a fractured mirror, Solid stares, uneven high expectations, A generations, entitlement, comes undone. Your life is fucking done. Your pitiful life, CONDEMNING THE HIVE, So feeble inside, CONDEMNING THE HIVE, oh, CONDEMNING THE HIVE. Bloated with pride, the privileged ones, A walking portrayal, your life's fucking done, Bloated with pride, the privileged ones, the privileged ones. |
