Requiem - Government Denies Knowledge lyrics



Tracks



01. Government Denies Knowledge

On the road paved with lies
Rest the goals we'll never reach
Stupid rules we have to live by
Deception is all they (really) preach

Never hearing what really happens
Led to believe we're doing right
Their decisions leave strange patterns
Not our business, but we're left to fight

We're doing right, but we're left to fight
Government denies knowledge...

They tell us stories hard to believe
Winning our trust by selling us dreams
(At) the point with nothing to achieve
Except to pay for someone's extremes

Nothing heard
Nothing seen
Nothing done
Government denies knowledge

Picked by a few to speak for all
Ensuring us nothing can go wrong
Only building towers destined to fall
Seems there's none that's really strong

No one to blame, we choose to be prey
The are the vultures, we the mice
But for those lives served on a tray
Get the fuck up!!! Think you live twice?!?

Nothing heard... seen... done
Nothing heard... seen... done
Nothing heard... seen... done
Government denies knowledge

We're doing right, but we're left to fight...
But we're left to fight...

02. Extinct By Evolution

Long life is just slow death
Trying to survive
When you take that last breath
You might ask why

Seems to be that all mankind
Is soon to die
For those that are left behind
We all should cry, we all should cry

We're just victims of our progress
Or is it fate
On the path leading to success
It's life we hate

Take what we can before it's gone
Make it bleed
Get it now, it can't last (that) long
On life we feed, feed, feed, feed...

Extinct by evolution, extinct by evolution,
Extinct by evolution, extinct by evolution

Progress - Distress
Evolution - Destolution
Aggression - Supression
Extinct by evolution

Priceless - Senseless
Recreation - Exploitation
Information - Contamination
Extinct by evolution

We all should cry, soon we must die

One thing sure, it will all end
It might be soon
So don't slow down, keep in trend
Still got the moon

Having to move won't be all bad
Time's running out
A second chance will be all we've had
Without a doubt

03. Inconsistent Consequences

I'm just trying to make a point
What you do is judged on a scale
Just something simple like a joint
Means for some a cross with three nails
Others lay lines around the earth
Out in the open, they know no fear

It's who they've known ever since birth
Their path and destiny is crystal clear
Who you know and what you are
Are your borders for how far to go
A lot of idiots can go too far
Connections are what they need to show

Need to show...

You wonder why they just run amok
When the reason is apparent to all
No connections and ran out of luck
Feet lose their ground, then they fall

Unknown people rule over their life
Tell them what to do, how much to pay
Take away their kids, reward the wife
In that life there's no reason to stay

Stay? No!

Nothing left but to stand and shout
Just better hope nobody can hear
When they notice that you've come out
They'll leave you dead inside a year
More it happens, more there will be
If copy cat or just a lost soul
The less people feel that they are free
All that much faster we'll lose all control

Inconsistent consequences
Inconsistent consequences

04. Bloodcult

Damned to hide, doomed to creep
Close your eyes, I'll let you sleep
Could be a dream, just a nightmere
The less you know, the more you fear

Death for you is a gift from me
I decide on when to set you free
You will learn to love what I offer
Loving me to make you suffer

For help you'll plea, to no avail
Your blood I'll drink, eat your entrails
You surrender life to let me live
Most precious gift you have to give

As you move on, one thing you'll learn
I'm damned to rot, in hell I'll burn
The pain you feel, compared to mine
Is just a grain in the sand of time

Bloodcult, bloodcult
Bloodcult, bloodcult

Let it flow...

Precious juice, nectar for me
I must prey upon, never free
The day will come, I too shall die
For your redemption my soul will fry

Suffer...

Blood - bloodcult, bloodcult, bloodcult...
Blood - bloodcult, bloodcult, bloodcult...
Blood - bloodcult, bloodcult, bloodcult...
Blood - bloodcult, bloodcult, bloodcult...

05. Signal Zero

3.20 powder fills the air
4.30 the last bullets we shared
5.10 the order comes again
6.40 the end is near for whom for when

7.00 the enemy gets nearer
8.42 this is hell this is true
9.14 no real chance to win
10.13 hearing their screams

Signal Zero The final chance
Signal Zero One last advance
Signal Zero Death Enhancer
Signal Zero No one answers

Signal Zero The final chance
Signal Zero One last advance
Signal Zero Death enhancer
Signal Zero No one answers

The final mission, it should be
No thoughts of death, no conscious reality
The bleeding world, is all that's left
Our cheap lifes, pushed to the edge
Signal Zero Final chance

3.20 powder fills the air
4.30 the last bullets we shared
5.10 the order comes again
6.40 the end is near for whom for when

7.00 the enemy gets nearer
8.42 this is hell this is true
9.14 no real chance to win
10.13 hearing their screams

Signal Zero The final chance
Signal Zero One last advance
Signal Zero Death enhancer
Signal Zero No one answers

Signal Zero...

Signal Zero Final chance...

06. Sonderkommando 12

They lead them into certain death
Selling their people to the SS
Hired by the masters in black
Cleansing with gas to the last breath

They lead them into certain death
Selling their people to the SS
Hired by the masters in black
Cleansing with gas to the last breath

Dragging their corpses to a pile
Burning their bodies increases lifetime
A little more food is what they earned
Before themselves got killed and burned

Dragging their corpses to a pile
Burning their bodies increases lifetime
A little more food is what they earned
Before themselves got killed and burned

Revolution was one final chance
Killing their masters the last advance
They couldn't stop the black machine
Freedom only remained a bloody dream

07. Diary Of A Damaged Brain

Things I have done should never be told
I must write them down as I grow old
This part of me I must hide from you
You could not believe these things that I do
Just a regular guy, eat, drink and sleep
But like that cliche, still waters run deep
It's not really me who does these bad things
The voices inside make me a puppet on strings

On strings...

The nightmares I have of blood and pain
Haunt me each night and torture my brain
It was me but not me that did what I did
I know what awaits me, a coffin with a lid
You'll never understand how I went this far
Maybe after I'm gone they'll make me a star
Make a movie about me and the things I have done
With the moral just being: Â"Thank God he is gone!Â"

Society won't take any part of the blame
It's simpler for them just to call me insane
They'll keep asking themselves how I do what I do

Diary of a... diary of a... diary of a damaged brain
Diary of a... diary of a... diary of a damaged brain
Diary of a... diary of a... diary of a damaged brain
Diary of a... diary of a... diary of a damaged brain

I wish I could let you know who I am
I am forced to move on, to follow their plan
I need to be stopped before more people get hurt
I long for that final day, to rest in the dirt

Rest in the dirt...

Diary of a... diary of a... diary of a damaged brain
Diary of a... diary of a... diary of a damaged brain
Diary of a... diary of a... diary of a damaged brain
Diary of a... diary of a... diary of a damaged brain

08. Supremacy

My bodies full of testosterone
Hormones reign over my will
This is the genetic overkill
Men lead by DNA structure
No own will just chemical facts
Effect the mind
Our short life is out of control
Hormone supremacy creates our role

My will, my thrill � control, my role
My will, my thrill � control, my role

Relations, sex, love and hate
Controlled by tiny atoms
Invisible for human eyes
untrue that humans are wise
We all know the facts
but believe in our own control
Face the facts and realize
the atomic hormone power rise

My will, my thrill � control, my role
My will, my thrill � control, my role

Chemics, physics and sciences
Explore the body for several years
Facts and structure seems so weird
The answer lies within ourselfs
Not in books on some fuckin shelf
Hormones decide the ways of ripe
No escape, just human life
No escape, just human life
No escape... just human life... no escape

Trying, trying to control my self
Planning my life with a new born faith
No chance to command my ways
Science facts I believe in now

How could I be a damn fool
Hormone supremacy made me a tool
Closing my eyes for reality
No own will, no mystery

My will, my thrill control, my role
My will, my thrill control, my role
Control...

09. Setting The Score

Weapons, armours, bringers of death
Awaiting the final command
Roaming, searching the fields of blood
Fortune lies in everyones hand
Fighting, dying, on roads of war
Blood and Iron that settles the score
Surviving and telling a bloody story
Paying your price, no guts, no glory

No glory...

Vikings, berserkers from the north
Romans, huns murdered for sports
Spartans, indians weapons now rust
Right or wrong no one judges
Honour, pride, death and glory
Airraid, groundforce roars and fury
Marching the fields on and on
Men never learns til mankinds gone

When ashes rain, power men gain
Death in our hand, innocent lands
Tanks, killing tech, to rape mankind
Only death we'll find

When ashes rain, glory troops gain
Life in your hand, to battle they went
Killed in field without firing a shot
Only death we'll find

When ashes rain, power men gain
Death in our hand, innocent lands
Tanks, killing tech, to rape mankind
Only death we'll find

When ashes rain, glory troops gain
Life in your hand, to battle they went
Killed in field without firing a shot
Only death we'll find

War for mercenaries
Score the bodies buried
Coffins sealed with blood
Afterworld filled with guts

Setting the score

10. Two Sides Within

Two sides, one heart, one soul
Fighting to keep control
Observing the beasts within
Transforming to something

Seductive liquids running down
Beasts and demons all around
For so long I followed this trail
My own downfall it will prevail

Destiny lies within the mind
No change (what's to) come for future time
Glance at visions of my past
The weak of mind will never last

Two sides within, what have I become
What have I done, out of control
Lost my heart, my mind, my soul
Within, within, within... two sides within

What have I become
What have I done, out of control
Lost my heart, my mind, my soul
Within, within, within... two sides within

Catched within what Im used
Missed to learn the right to choose
No decisions by what I feel
Look through my lie deny what´s real

Seductive liquids running down
Beasts and demons all around
For so long I followed this trail
My own downfall it will prevail

Destiny lies within the mind
No change (what's to) come for future time
Glance at visions of my past
The weak of mind will never last

Two sides within, what have I become
What have I done, out of control
Lost my heart, my mind, my soul
Within, within, within... two sides within

What have I become
What have I done, out of control
Lost my heart, my mind, my soul
Within, within, within... two sides within

Lost my heart, my mind, my soul...
