Into the mouth of madness
Speaking was the mistake You falter in your judgment Now your spirit is mine to break You tried to silence my voice Tongue sharp like a knife The end result? Soul sacrifice I stand on your throat To silence your life Your punishment? Soul sacrifice You tried to silence my voice Tongue sharp like a knife The end result? Soul sacrifice I stand on your throat To silence your life Your punishment? Soul sacrifice 02. Executioner's Tax (Swing Of The Axe)
Go on and look at you
Today is your lucky day The executioner's here, and he's ready to make you pay You prayed for so long And now you have your chance The executioner's here And he's sharpening his axe Swing of the Axe Cry all you want, but the blade soars today Swing of the Axe You buy in the for the privilege To know what lies beyond Death hides behind veiled faces It only takes one swing and you're gone The executioner The beginning and the end He carries cold hard steel masked with the taste of medicine Blessed with a reaper's touch, his might cannot be matched It's time to pay the man, The Executioner's Tax Swing of the Axe Swing at the World Swing of the Axe (Swing of the Axe) Even a killer has to get paid (Swing of the Axe) Swing of the Axe Swing of the Axe 03. Firing Squad
Peace be unto thee, unless you want a piece of me
Whose side are you on? You can't hide You can't run You wage war on life Logic lost in brainwashed minds Storming heaven, it's not too late Hit them hard, crash the gates I see your way of life and I think it's a joke "Don't step out of line, you're walking a tight rope!" Before long I'll be dead and gone Locked up for the firing squad The Firing squad Old guard changes hands This will be your last stand You had yours I want mine Second chance: Denied I see your way of life and I think it's a joke "Don't step out of line, you're walking a tight rope!" Before long I'll be dead and gone Locked up for the firing squad The firing squad Warfare everywhere? I shudder the thought! Lined up with the firing squad Now take your best shot! 04. Nightmare Logic
The slumber of reason gives birth to all demons
A new battle takes form Forced evolution to incite revolution Rewrite the rules to play the game As we struggle in the fight to survive Through strange domains and vicious ways From the darkest depths we will arise This realm will be their demise Their demise They underestimated the force behind the hatred Grown with war on our minds Lawlessness of their nightmare has left them unaware To the weakness they've exposed We reach the summit in our climb to the top Through strange domains and vicious ways In the darkest depths, a planned devised Their spite for us is their demise Their demise They've given us a devil's playground and all his deadliest toys We must take all we've learned to destroy all they know This nightmare logic, our greatest tool Decimate the all-righteous fool 05. Waiting Around To Die
Human "being" has lost its meaning when you refuse to fight
If I don't force your hand, it could cost you your life You're waiting around to die and you're all right with it You're waiting around to die and I can't stand for it You say you've got the fire in you, then show me what you've got You say the future's yours, I say your future is filled with rot You're waiting around to die, how can you live with it? Just waiting around to die and I can't fucking stand it You're waiting around to die, how can you live with it? Just waiting around to die, is this how we're going to end it? No Can't be held accountable for another hopeless soul The choice ain't up to me, you've got to fight to be free 06. Ruination
Ruination
Wipe the whole slate clean Ruination This ruined nation A nation of abominations Watching an empire end We've set our sights on pure chaos The void will welcome us again We tried We failed In our darkest hour, we bailed Ruination Ruination This ruined nation Last generation, an aberration Watching the whole world burn We have no mouths and we must scream The void welcomes us again We tried We failed In our darkest hour, we fucking bailed 07. If Not Us Then Who
Get up
Out of your cave and into the fire Time is short, this is our last resort To get through to you, what have I got to do? Who's going to be the difference? If not us Then who? If not us, then who? If not us, then who? Sound off Take a look at your life, tell me to what do you aspire? I want to know how far you're willing to go Can't stop the force of ruin, this world will run through you If not now, then when? If not us, then who? If not us, then who? If not us, then who? If not us, then who? If not us, then who? 08. Crucifixation
Territorial pissing contest, it sickens my nerves
Atrophy of morality, the people left to burn A foregone conclusion, the lock before the key Raised on ideology and imperial democracy I don't care what you think you know Go and leave it on your tombstone Altering the conscious, you can see what fits Making carnage of culture for your own benefit Your purity is make believe, delusion spreading like a weed Your logical fallacy is rational savagery Crucifixation Mental devastation A spiritual mockery Pure American hypocrisy Territorial pissing contest, it sickens my nerves Atrophy of morality, the people left to burn A foregone conclusion, the lock before the key Raised on ideology and imperial democracy I don't care what you think you know Go and leave it on your tombstone Altering the conscious, you can see what fits Indoctrinating violence for your own benefit Corrupting everything you see, delusion spreading like a weed Your thirst for totality is rational savagery |
