Call it escape to stay alive
Call it displacement with sunken eyes When all it takes to reignite Is separation of thought and sight Drought flood bathing in blood Sacred arrangement of god as a son Drown any semblance Of power of privilege of state The plight of the sainthood The harmony of gluttony and lust The knife in the safe room Without the business of death bringing glory what's left A celebration of blood My arrow is true Another self given wound They all come from above To kill everything that you love Control and everything you know Is in the life you left Is in the life you hold Back then you never see the head Disconnected flesh disconnected soul The unseen unfolds Who the pariah heeds The pariah holds This is the confession Of an obsessive former human The only one who tried to stop This world from consuming And devouring itself 02. This Is The Truth
The day after dawn
The knight moves on the pawn Why are we so violent To grasp at the unknown Because there's so much That we can't see Not your prophet your muse or your comedy Tragic endings sad defeats A monument to the guilty They brought this disease The truth never sleeps Cold and lifeless suspended belief Blinded unable to breathe The royal blood The tired sheep Arcane cursing death Nihilistic innocence is gone I've been consumed Now I've lost all desire I lost myself in the choir Never once never give it the Pleasure of power Alone in it's tower I've lost the will to lie to myself I've been to hell I've seen the ruse This is the truth We're all being used 03. Timeless Numbers
I was born with a
poisoned lung Born under a blacked out sun Where I lost my everything all at once They overdeveloped us We underproduced them You don't blame them for what they did I do this is the end time What is this place Who are these beings They look like us Something's different deceiving The original crime To conquer to divide Death from the beginning The end of all life Timeless numbers Where everyone's been bought and sold There will always be a failure to guide us There will always be a loss of control So bless me with death For this life has failed me Rest for the unrest This was forever And now that I've seen your face And looked you in those hollow eyes I see the reason The story of a world consumed Timeless numbers of prior life forms All have been lost And in the wake of it all After they'd drilled to the core The blast was everlasting The blood will always pour Let no one wake you Forgive or forsake you The eye of the creator Is blind to us all 04. None Of This Is The Truth
Sadistic intent
The modern cynic Venom spitters fatalistic Poison seeping These machines are never sleeping The illusion of power The life and the death of a coward I know now we're lost I know now you're gone Born into this post modern trauma Severed intentions Tethered affection All encompassing Domination The fall of the state Division disorder Annulled of every treason These machines prey on the weakest No moderation You're either dead or you're complacent No end no love no one None of this is the truth 05. The Flesh & The Flowers Of Death
There is no versus
There is no together A perverse salvation Romanticized failure Bloodlust incarnate Bloodlust eternal The final breath of your enemy The savage recital Of war hymns forgotten These war pigs for profit This is the pioneer's harvest This land is nothing is no one's and has never been Bloodlust surrounding Bloodlust within The flesh and the flowers Of death bringing glory to cowards These are the tyrants The lovers of power We are loyal to none I have drank their blood and I have lived a thousand lives Now I am never forever And the moon will continue to rise A curse on the light of the sun All hail the darkness All hail the unholy 06. Those Who Survived
The ones who strayed
The ones who were left behind This looks like something someone would try to hide Those who survived Are those with blood in their eyes Push the pressure Add more fuel to the fire Stop submit admit you've lost control Salute as you plummet to your doom Fall in prepare yourself for the Cold calculated chemical embrace I've been waiting and we've all been warned We all knew this day would come And yet we ignored We're all going down We're all going to burn I feel the presence of another An ancient one Pulling us closer The time has come Brace yourself for the impact From the wreckage we crawled Broken and bloodied we go on We must move forward We must continue into the beyond Now all I see is their blood And all I've ever known is gone And yet we ignored 07. Another Headless Ruler Of The Used
The classic tale of the wolf
The saga of sheep Surrender transcendance Surrender humility The origin of violence We open on Godless prophets Liars entombed Another headless ruler of the used The dreadful one Takes a step back to reveal A forwardness unwelcome To harbor conceal And if what I see is real The world is full of War this confusion More there is no plan War no divination More the creation of man The gallows haunt the sediment Selective odds The sacrifice is real The sacrifice of youth The solace of the steel And if what I know is true We sacrifice to 09. Enter Oblivion
I am no one
I have no home Forsaken daughters Forsaken sons Enter oblivion My eyes shut My head awake Been following the one thing that never stays Salvation you never get Been following the sun so it never sets I have no fear anymore I've bled my life For foolish devotion And foolish pride Lay waste dying day Tourniquet Turn away Surrounding vacant hollow trees All left to wander endlessly It never bleeds It never dies Oblivion 10. The Last Of The Monuments
Enter the endless time
Enter the never mind The sit and wait it will change This is the paradigm On the mend on the descent On a pilgrimage to the last of the monuments This is the end I see the sun go down for one final time This desert is alive And all the engines have died I see no reason to hide Though we should cease to speak My vision has blurred Legs have gone weak I fear I'm starting to repeat But we've come too far Too far to retreat Beyond the point of no return The point of defeat On bloody feet From here on out The thorns and the scorn of the earth unforgiving This is the sound of it breaking you down With a vengeance The stench of regression And in the end the flora reconquered Order restored a world reborn I've seen the blood I've smelled the rot of their self destruction We are the subjects We are the sword We are the last of the invading hordes 11. In The Name Of Us All
To become one and the same
To erase to rebuild and reclaim The new evolution Humanity is bored It"s selling for sport And hunting for more Creation banal nothing is new When all that you want has already been used I reject you in the name of us all I should be afraid I should be ashamed yet I When there is no joy in discovery We hallucinate into Psychic progression Or is it just a set up A monolithic realm Spiraling tunneling down I don't feel anything at all Be gone forget Out of our heads out of this life Worship the knife Celebrate death with your celibate wife Cut through skin fear the knife I don't care how you wasted your life I don"t feel anything for you For you were the cause 12. Beneath It Sleeps
Beyond the reaches of
A thousand rising suns Your god won't save you now Your god always was Infected plagiaristic Simple to understand With no obligation to the true nature of the land Defy derelict devil in a suit A celebrated life A celebrated tomb I've looked away I've cast aside Stared into the emptiness A vacant heart a vacant mind Now I can see it clear Enter the overgrown Separated and selected The blood of my blood will defy I love the fear of night I love the moon I hate to wake you up This may all be over soon This is my final entry I feel I may have finally Cracked the code To sustaining and maintaining A vibrant and healthy Human life Maybe it's nothing but I swear I hear the birds of The morning hours It makes my heart go a-flutter The tower once risen to power Has crumbled is dying And devouring itself And what I've come to discover Has been nothing more than |
