Tracks



01. Machine Messiah

Alone away
Lost, darken rage
Far from grace a world betrayed
Come and free the beast
Can you hear me?
I want hope

Behold there's a way
A spark, a flame
Won't you feed the needs?
Come and save me
I need you
I'll give you everything
I'll cure humanity
Shelter security
I'll make you part of me
Prepare to feel nothing

The soul is dead
Your savior bled
The soul is dead
Bow down to machine messiah

Give me your praise
I'll keep you safe
The soul is dead
Bow down to machine messiah

The souls is dead
Your savior bled
The soul is dead
Bow down to machine messiah

Give me your praise
I'll keep you safe
The soul is dead
Bow down to machine messiah

I'll give you everything
I'll cure humanity
Shelter security
I'll make you part of me
I have returned

02. I Am The Enemy

Open your mind and pay attention
What do you see and what do you hear
Conspiracy plots in this culture of fear

Reunite with yourself
Reconnect with ourselves

Facing the blind of collective delusion
I need my freedom from this evil deception
I am the enemy
I am the enemy

Powered by thoughts of revolution
Building all bridges of error
Search and destroy my sick innerself
To realize I'm not a fraud

Reunite with yourself
Reconnect with ourselves
Reorganize our lies!
Re-humanize our lives!

Reprogram your aim
Rewrite our law
Reprogram your aim
Rewrite our law

Facing the blind of collective delusion
I need my freedom from this evil deception
I am the enemy
I am the enemy

Reprogram your aim
Rewrite our law
You are human.

03. Phantom Self

What happened to me? Felt like I had everything
Such a big catastrophe but I had deal with the struggle
It all began passing life so easily
Ready for almost anything, but it took a different direction

Then, one night, sharp turns. A light came from no where

Blown away. Never felt my injuries
Bleeding deep inside of me
Just knew I had to help all those people

Lost. My mind it's gone. That life
Lost. I've been looking for myself
It haunts me everyday
I'm searching for a truth no longer there

Transformed - I'm someone else
Must face my phantom self
Transformed - I'm someone else
Must face my phantom self

It's a mystery. Changed my body's chemistry
Always creeping up on me
Wiped out my whole soul of existence

The crash. Flash backs. Carnage the blood keeps on flowing
Killing me. Trapped inside this tragedy
Can't see the road in front of me
Replay this nightmare over and over

Lost. I've been looking for myself
It haunts me everyday
I'm searching for a truth no longer there

Transformed - I'm someone else
Must face my phantom self
Transformed - I'm someone else
I'll face my phantom self

Lost - I've been looking for myself
It haunts me everyday
I'm searching for a truth no longer there

Transformed - I'm someone else
Must face my phantom self
Transformed - I'm someone else
I'll face my phantom self!

04. Alethea

Made to believe. Education misleading my way
A story was told by profiteer's lies
Rewriting our past and the truth

I was made to believe. Television a story on screen
All made through deceit by the corporate elite
The fear controlling our minds

Raise your hands and reach for your God
Created to fight and kill in this war
In the end I'm fighting myself

Loud and clear. From far and beyond
No bullshit from teachers and leaders will change
What's real inside of my head

My voice. Loud and clear

Do you believe in justice for all
Or obey unlawful and ruled
Left. Right. All: A con

Rigged the game from the start
Don't play me for a fool

My voice. Loud and clear

Do you believe in justice for all
Or choose to be callous and cruel
Left. Right. It's all a con

Won't play me for a fool

My choice. Blood in my eyes

Promoting a life made of stereotypes
Sickens me down to the core

Scars... won't... break... me!

05. Iceberg Dances

[Instrumental]

06. Sworn Oath

Crawling from under the ashes
It's the start of a rebirth without limitations

Leave it all to begin again
Forced to face with who we are and what we did

No deception or promises
Everyone is running out of patience

The writings on the, wall
The tide is turning, now
Won't pledge allegiance, why
Our goals will never, die

Constrained by corruption
Bleeding hearts were led astray
Swore an oath to lead the way
But the greed transformed to shame

There's a reason to break these chains
We're all aware that no one wants to live this way
Not this way

Locked up and confined. No attention
But we stand, we stand to make a difference

The writings on the wall
The tide is turning, now
Won't pledge allegiance, why
Our goals will never die

The writings on the, wall
The tide is turning, now
Won't pledge allegiance, why
Our goals will never, die
Never die

07. Resistant Parasites

Mass suffering, die slowly
Look what they've done

Plant toxins. Buy cheaper. Buy

Forced breeding. No healing no

Resistant parasites
Infecting to survive
Disastrous consequences

More money. Raised profits
Shares rising. Look what they've done

Resistant parasites
Infecting to survive
Disastrous consequences

Can't close our eyes. Identify
This is a crime that we can't deny
Won't change our minds it's all been said

Get out
Fuck off

Mass suffering, die slowly
Mass suffering, look what they've done

Resistant parasites
Infecting to survive
Disastrous consequences

Resistant parasites
Infecting to survive
Resistant parasite live on

08. Silent Violence

I've taken all I can take
I feel the need to destroy
Fight or flight is born in me
Chronic pain set free

Anger raging. The demons within
Silent violence. Created this sin

Killed by the stress

The demon within
Silent violence
Just have to let go

Broke all the rules of the game
I tried to make it all end
Of course you will have to pay
Live life toiled and fray

Hard-wired to life day after day
There's not a difference it all seems the same
Triggered frustration from feeling this way
Social destruction

Anger raging. Silent violence
Torture unfolds. Silent violence

It started as nothing but grew into something
Just feeding away until you cannot function
You're never controlling but in disillusion
It's grinding away like a modern day plague

Anger raging. The demons within
Silent violence. Created this sin

Killed by the stress

The demon within
Silent violence
Just have to let go

09. Vandals Nest

A bitter battle brewing. Engulfed in flames
A game for many. Others feel the pain

Seek a side for cover. Attack your enemy
Many spit their hatred right across the face

False deception
There's no order
Where's the progress?

Nothing functions
Nothing functions
Nothing functions
Nothing's working
Nothing functions
Nothing functions
Where's it gone to? was it worth it?

We lose sight
We chose sides
Delusions
We lose sight

False deception
There's no order
Where's the progress?
Where's it gone to?

Nothing functions
Nothing functions
Nothing's working
Was it worth it?

10. Cyber God

I saw this many times smothered by the words
Lashed out from your mouth
You'll pay the price backing all the shit you said
It flowed like it would never end
Lead by those unstable sick fantasies
You chose to be this way

Behind a glow is a darkness showing
A strangling guilt with selfish motives

Nothing left to offend. It's been sad
All been done. Nothing left. Just a shell of man

Join the show. Watch it grow

Cyber God. Making them fall
Taste the wrath. Fear thy words

Tried to make sense of what you're saying
Meaningless lies with no emotion

There's nothing left to offend. It's been sad
All been done. Nothing left. Just a shell of man

Join the show. Watch it grow
Cyber God. Making them fall
Taste the wrath. Fear thy words

Fear my words

Won't let them take the best of me
I've got to be the one I see
Won't let them take the best of me
The fight is strong. I won't retreat
