Sorry to burst your fucking Bubble.
You had your Peace, now it's Time to set things straight.
So you thought you knew me, I thought I knew Myself too.
Bet you had me written off, an able Gun but with Bullets lost.
Sleeping Dogs be left asleep, but here's some Jaws that want it's Meat.

Cutting Teeth.
After all, we're just cutting Teeth.
Cutting Teeth.
Watch me now.
Cutting Teeth.

I've fucking had it with lying in Wait, I'm fucking through with only biding my Time.
I don't need you to understand, I'm just here to claim what's mine.
Take A look at these bloodied Hands with wear from toil, Lions to Lambs.
Brush the Dirt from six feet below, So, can you feel me!?

Burning your Words to Ashes in your Mouth.
Standing tall, never forget who you are.
Cutting Teeth, bite the Hand that feeds you.
Cutting Teeth, bite the Hand that frees you.

So here we are at the Steps of your last Breath.
Hear me now to my Commandment.
It's starting to show now how I transform your World.
You can't deny it, I'm taking over.
I'm taking over.

Cutting Teeth.
After all, we're just cutting Teeth.
Cutting Teeth, grinding deep.

I'm the Master of my own World.
I control every Second.
You're the Virus, infecting my Blood.
Spreading your Cancer.

Falling from Reality.
It's happening.

You weakening me!
The closer you get, the heavier the Burden.
Slowly fading, Soul is dying.

I don't know why the fuck I'm still standing.
What is pulling me up?
I can see but my Eyes are burning.
The Pain never fades away.

Salvation not happening.
It screams my Name.
Entering Purgatory.

I can feel how my whole World is breaking... breaking apart.
I'm alive but I know I'm not living, I linger in Pain.
Only Way to avoid it, I know it will help.
A Stab in the Chest, slow and deep.

I don't know why the fuck I'm still breathing.
The Pain intensifies.
Should've ended it quicker.
Quicker than this I should be free

Salvation not happening.
It screams my Name.
The Pain never fades away.

Everything I do ends up as nothing.
In fact, I've never felt so small.
You scream, I scream, we're locked in pointless Battle.
I wish I could drag you out and smash your Crown.
It's the only real thing that I've got!
I search for Light, where everything is dark.
Your Words they ran me through and yes they bring me down.

We are so alike and it makes me sick.
We will always be each other's Sin.
So as the outside World can't see our wrong and right.
You fix me up and it does the Trick.

It's like there's Pain in every Corner, Hell on every Road.
It never lets up, it only seems to grow.
Never know the Reason to our Strife.
Only thing I really know is that you are the Love of my Life!

We are so alike and it makes me sick.
We will always be each other's Sin.
So as the outside World can't see our wrong and right.
You fix me up and lead me to the Light.

We are so alike and it makes me sick.
We will always be each other's Sin.
So as the outside World can't see our wrong and right.
You fix me up and it does the Trick.

We are so alike and it makes me sick.
We will always be each other's Sin.
So as the outside World can't see our wrong and right.
You fix me up and lead me to the Light.

I know what you're going to say.
Don't you fucking touch me.
Please spare me all your Bullshit.
I can feel you inside me, taking Stabs at my broken Heart.
How the fuck should I ever be able to relate to what you want me to be?
Why try, you can't fix this.
Can't fix what's broken from the Start.

Eye of the Storm.
You keep staring at me from the Eye of the Storm.

You want me to be A Non-violent Spirit.
But when I'm violent is the only Time you hear me.
A Life built on Abuse and Sin.
If I promise to play nice, will you let me in?

Take it all, I've bled for far too long.
Caught in this Storm.
My right was always your wrong.

I won't shed another Tear for you.
You ask for my Forgiveness, all I have for you is Contempt.
Have it all, try to wash it away.
I'll keep feeding you this 'til your dying Day.

I want into the Calm in the Eye of the Storm.
You keep taunting me from within the Eye of the Storm.

The Eye Of the Storm.
You keep staring at me from the Eye of the Storm.

I want into the Calm in the Eye of the Storm.
You keep taunting me from within the Eye of the Storm.

So, how do you do, yeah!
It was nice to meet you but the Grass is growing underneath my Feet.
If I had A Dime for every Jerk on the Road.
I'd had A House full of Money and A Mouth full of Gold.
Who's his Face and what you that Band?
Every fucking Day I try to understand.
I can't be bothered with your Piece-of-Shit-Band.
With your Piece-of-Shit-Music and your Piece-of-Shit-Fans.

Get this:
your Licks and Riffs are all laced with Shit.
But Songs full of nothing are just making me sick.
Think you're made 'cause your Mugs are the Cover.
But come next Month, they'll be covering someone other.
What's that Bro, can't find A Style of your own?
You got the Wagon to the left and to the right are the Clones.
Don't slap my Back, quoting me as the Man.
I want nothing to do with your fucking Band.

Trend Killer.

Yeah, here comes Johnny smoking three Packs A Day.
He thinks he's the Shit with his Band and his Babe.
He spent his advance on getting full sleeve Tattoos.
Now the Band and Babe split and left with Holes in his Sheos.

You burned your Bridges when becoming A Star.
But the Cameras stopped flashing at your entourage.
You played the Guitar, had it strapped to your Chin.
Got A Adam's Apple cut-out and A Hairdo to win.
But Times caught up and now your Fame has died.
You find yourself alone with No one by your Side.
Now, whine, whine, whine is all I hear from your Face.
As the "Band of the Week" steps up to take your Place.

Trend Killer.

So here I sit puffin on my Cigar.
Chauffeur driving me around in one of my Cars.
Management calls but I hang up the Phone.
I'm busy doing nothing, so just leave me alone.
Life is hard at the Top of the Heap.
Got A Million Dollar Habit and my Ends to meet.
Dude, I'm sorry to I can't be seen with your Band.
Got whatever to do, I'm sure you understand.

Trend Killer.
Trend Killer.

Is it me, me, me or is it you, you, you?
Trend Killer.
What goes up, up, up must come down, down, down
Trend Killer.
Is it me, me, me or is it you, you, you?
Trend Killer.
What goes up, up, up must come down, down, down
Trend Killer.

I'm stuck in the Life I was sure I left behind.
A Place so hollow, there's nothing left to find.
A Perfect Failure, A flawless Imperfection.
Just A fading Shadow on the Path to my Extinction.

I've been down Roads where few will ever go.
I've seen the Dirt where all our Secrets grow.
From the Depths of A Life relentless.
I'll stay here down below.

Down Below!

Because Time will not heal me!
Time will not heal me!

A Self-appointed Savior, unable to cure Myself.
Here I Am, in my Hand A Tool of Death.
My Rite begins when everything else has ended.
To rid the World of A Life so redundant

I've been down Roads where few will ever go.
I've seen the Dirt where all our Secrets grow.
From the Depths of A Life relentless.
I'll stay here down below.

Because Time will not heal me!
Time will not heal me!

All I have is what I gave me, you don't owe me Shit.
Yet all the while, you lead me through the Fire to somewhere I belong.
Author of Salvation, where can I go from here?

Is there any use for me?
Will you ever need me?
I can't make any Sense of this.
I guess nothing is all I have!

'Cause every Breath I'm taking, every Move I make.
Leaves me anxious and waiting, I hope my Walls don't break!
A Soldier of Premonition, Hell is where I'll go from here.

Is there any use for me?
Will you ever need me?
I can't make any Sense of this.
I guess nothing is all I have!

'Cause even this Breath that I Am taking, you have given to me.
There is nothing I can call my own.

Hell is where you find me, cutting away at your Soul.
Lost and lonely in this Abattoir called "Life".
Blood-soaked, I unearth the Ruins of what used to be me.
No Empathy, free of Emotions and Guilt!

Temptation!
The Urge is growing Stronger.
Temptation!
I'm A wide awake Nightmare.

Faulty wiring, A Life of synaptic Void.
A chemical Purgatory, adding Fuel to this Lunacy.
This will be my last Sunset, the same goes for you.
Lay down beside me and let the Vultures hack away at our Death.

Temptation!
The Urge is growing Stronger.
Temptation!
I'm A wide awake Nightmare.

I have gazed into the Depths of my Mind.
There are Wounds that will never heal.
A Funeral Pyre burning deep from within.
Temptation, the Urge is growing Stronger.

Go!

War!

Evil is what evil do, painting the whole World red.
Replacing your Pride with venial Lies, so the Truth will end up dead.
We're at A Point of no Survival and we are left with No one to blame.
Stained by Guilt, triggered by Hate.
Fuel this fucking Inferno!

Go!

Pro-Christ Hypocrisy will be my Enemy!
Pro-Christ Hypocrisy will be my Enemy!
Pro-Christ Hypocrisy will be my Enemy!

If Death is all that you seek!
Well, right here is where you'll find it!
"Hell will punish the Sinners!"
Bleak Words that seem just weaker and weaker.

You can cry all you want!
No one here will hold you or dry your Eye!
Here, the Strong eat the Weak and the Price is paid by those who dare to speak the Truth.

Children of many Fathers, all raised by the Mother of War!

Locked away, still in their Cages, with the Keys inside.
A Look in their Eyes and you'll see the Crime that finally killed their Light!

Fathers killing their Daughters, Mothers killing their Sons.
All the Men standing here, only brought here for the Hell they bring.

Locked away, still in their Cages, with the Keys inside.
A Look in their Eyes and you'll see the Crime that finally killed their Light!

Locked away, still in their Cages, with the Keys inside.
A Look in their Eyes and you'll see the Crime that finally killed their Light!

Go!

Death will come to the Seeker!
Death will come to the Fool!
Death will come to the Seeker!
Death will come to the Fool!

Locked away, still in their Cages, with the Keys inside.
A Look in their Eyes and you'll see the Crime that finally killed their Light!

Locked away, still in their Cages, with the Keys inside.
A Look in their Eyes and you'll see the Crime that finally killed their Light!

Finally killed their Light!
Finally killed their Light!

Power will piss on the Weak!

A Serpent Order, A twisted Horde of creeping Scum.
Seizing Power, they sacrifice to rise beyond.

You feel the Tension rising, you're about to break.
They watch you fight for high Ground and now they raise the Stakes.
You live in the silent Chaos, yet you fear the Sound it makes.
You close your Eyes and fake it , but it won't go away

This War is final!!!
Discard!!!
The Serpent is shedding it's Skin.

They run this putrid Game, they deal the Cards.
Deep inside the Calm, you know there's no Way to win.
You close your Eyes and fake it , but it won't go away
But they are here to stay!

This War is final!!!
Discard!!!
The Serpent is shedding it's Skin.

You feel the Tension rising, you're about to break.
They watch you fight for high Ground, then they raise the Stakes.

This War is final!!!
Discard!!!
The Serpent is shedding it's Skin.

This War is final!!!
Discard!!!
The Serpent is shedding it's Skin.

The Serpent is shedding it's Skin.

As I exit this Downward Spiral and drag all my Flaws out into the Light.
It is always the same old Story, these sick twisted Patterns to dampen my Spite.

Will I ever be able to conquer the Facts of my own Defeat?
Will I ever be able to justify my Strife?
Born to fight, breed to kill, ready to die but I never will!
If it is to be, I know it is all up to me!

Another Day, another Way to defile and soil my own Existence.
Rejection, Reflection the only Way to my Absolution.

Will I ever be able to conquer the Facts of my own Defeat?
Will I ever be able to justify my Strife?
Born to fight, breed to kill, ready to die but I never will!
If it is to be, I know it is all up to me!

The Infiltrator is already in, carving away at my Skin.

As neither Heaven or Hell will take me.
I will walk this World alone... Then, now and Forever!

Will I ever be able to conquer the Facts of my own Defeat?
Will I ever be able to justify my Strife?
Born to fight, breed to kill, ready to die but I never will!
If it is to be, I know it is all up to me!

The Infiltrator is already in, carving away at my Skin.

A barren Wasteland.
Covered with Blood and Dust.
The Remnants of A swift Uprising.
Non-Human Usurpers to our Throne.

The Ghost in the Machine.
The End of Days.
The Ghost in the Machine.
Our Time has come.

Mankind has fallen.
Our Future is frozen in Time.
The Past is all but forgotten
But at the Heart of the Monoliths lies the Key to Salvation.

The Ghost in the Machine.
The End of Days.
The Ghost in the Machine.
Our Time has come.

A Cure is found inside us all to free us from the enslaving Cult.
Their Legions on A Funeral March, Mankind is cheating Death.

The Ghost in the Machine.
The End of Days.
The Ghost in the Machine.
Our Time has come.
