For the events of war bring the tragic losses of lives
The prideful acts of murder among men Let this be the death of our era From this bowels of humanity Does murder prove right? From this bowels of humanity Does murder prove right? Below the skies, that are lit at night Hail the gun of the warmachine 200 years of destroying life What does that mean? 200 years of tyranny What does that mean? A fraud of a country Weak in respect, we thrive on neglect For those who surround us The third world means nothing This is the cost of murder Poverty and disease Quarantined to never plague the white lives From this bowels of humanity Does murder prove right? From this bowels of humanity Does murder prove right? Below the skies, that are lit at night Hail the gun of the warmachine 02. In The Wake
Let these be the words
To sound from your feeble mind Venomous hate forms the agony I have placed upon your heart A tyrant falls Not at least Death has overcome My eyes are able to see No more will lives be plagued Clad in your scornful shadow I watch from afar To sever the bonds between humanity In the wake of destruction Under the moon, the crescent light A tyrant's demise is brought forth I have banished all the lies We will not fall Let these be the words To sound from your feeble mind Venomous hate forms the agony I have placed upon your heart A tyrant falls Not at least Death has overcome My eyes are able to see 03. Here The Sun Never Shines
Degradation of the sacred
The almighty has ruined the earth There is none so vile as the one who provokes war Endless agony that violates our human rights Unable to see through the fog and smoke We walk blindly through the halls Which lead to nowhere Here the sun never shines But is covered by the ignorance of man There is none so vile as the one who provokes war Endless agony that violates our human rights Unable to see through the fog and smoke Cloaked and drenched In the unforgiving substance of apathy The future of tomorrow is bleak With the self righteous Commanding the tyrannical armies Soldiers trained not to think or breathe 04. The Nature Of Betrayal
Eyes upon the beautiful
There is no salvation Into the depths Of abysmal torment Let me stop this spreading disease The betrayal runs deep Into the veins of man To cast down and degrade We have been betrayed Tear down their heavens Set ablaze their sorrows Denounce the name That was given The plague will be killed tomorrow The betrayal runs deep Into the veins of man To cast down and degrade We have been betrayed Enslave the angels Conquer the divine 05. Plague That Leads To Extinction
Plague the thoughts of men
Take away their dignity and self pride You died for me? My slate is clean Not due to a false ideal I call out your lies to the public eye Behold the future, One that will lead to casualties He holds all men equal? Yet you claim to be god The war of ages is never ending It boils that blood that fills my veins Stirring nothing but hatred for the world It fills my veins Stirring nothing but hatred for the world You bring many people peace on your crutch Remove it, they can stand without your touch Sincere are the actions in men Initiated simply by the thought of mankind It boils that blood that fills my veins Stirring nothing but hatred for the world It fills my veins Stirring nothing but hatred for the world A world without your presence A world better than the present You have awakened the giant from it's sleep 06. Victims
No more will I fall victim
To unwanted emotions A heart so cold, a color of black Not a shadow lighter, for weakness Will rise to the surface Why is a body plagued with this? Enough pain to crumble the human mind This time the tables have turned For a soul that is so filled with hate Will endure, will endure Give me the will of a martyr To prove a lesson learned Help me remove this From my stream of blood Help me remove this From my stream of blood A pain that yields fear Do I fear what lies ahead? Neglect that feeling of weakness There is no option No more will I fall victim To unwanted emotions An open mind brings me to rest Nothing less 07. Stealing The Air Of Life
With these lungs I inhale the air
It slowly escapes through my throat Into the polluted sky The air that gives life is gone Removed from this earth Each breath brings you closer To what is the end But the sky darkens My lungs start collapsing The air that gives life is taken away How has the earth become this way? Out of my esophagus, it has escaped My breath is no longer My lungs are empty Waiting for a pure intake There will be none Into the polluted sky The air that gives life is gone Removed from this earth Each breath brings you closer I am here waiting for a source to live How has the earth become this way? We're stealing the air of life 08. Ending The Eternal Reign
What has become of us?
Must we follow? Must we beg for mercy? Breaking from this shell of silence and solitude Standing against the lies We are ending the eternal reign Tearing down the hierarchy Given strength to the weak willed Force fed, never again Belonging to ourselves No one else Force fed, never again Belonging to ourselves No one else We are ending the eternal reign Breaking from this shell of silence and solitude Standing against the lies We are ending the eternal reign Save yourself Silence has been shattered Salvage the pieces of who we are Silence has been shattered |
