Piece by piece, limb by limb
Hear the screams of a dying world Everything you bring smells of decay Because you, you let me down Deep down in a state on confusion Hate, you build on your hate As you lay under the guillotine Stone by stone, strength by strength Your betrayal is monumental Hiding through the cracks of fear I see you dying Because you, you let me down Deep down in a different dimension Greed, it's all about your greed As you lay under the guillotine Heads will roll, justice served Because you, you let me down Deep down in a state on confusion Hate, you build on your hate As you lay under the guillotine Because you, you let me down Deep down in a different dimension Greed, it's all about your greed As you lay under the guillotine 02. Outsider Music by Kataklysm Lyrics by Maurizio Iacono
I told you before and I'll tell you again
I'm the last one you'll see before you die I came from the gutter Just to see you suffer Don't say a word, don't even breathe All the poison you spill, all the lies you feed Designed to kill and torture lives All the innocent darkness with no regrets No regrets This chaos you bring, a symphonic greed As you fall in your fate, the abysmal doom These hypocrite lies made to enslave As you sharpened the blade... incarcerate I've seen you stumble in your weakened soul All the broken promises untold The blood will spill, there's no escape I'm here to say, your time is over You think you know it all... But before you open your mouth, you need to take a hard look in the mirror Learn how to walk the walk before you talk the talk. Outsider Outsider It's who I am, it's what I live for Two steps from the grave... always I came to kill your heroes I came to kill your heroes No place to live, no place to die No heart to break and no guilt to take All the things you said, I'll never forget You push to kill, there's no remorse I step inside your pitiful life And tear apart all your broken lies I can't express all the anger inside I'm sick of the world as it comes undone 03. The Last Breath I'll Take Is Yours Music by Kataklysm Lyrics by Maurizio Iacono
Run where you can't hide
Your stabbing words of anger Steal my innocence dry Steal the sun from the sky I feel all of your hatred I see all of your weakness Lost in a vision I push all of you bastards out I'll take all of you traitors out The last breath I'll take The last breath I'll take is yours You can't escape your own shadow You can't walk backwards and see your path forward Every single time you broke the promise You looked me dead in the eyes and lied It's just a matter of time You can't escape your own shadow You can't walk backwards and see your path forward Every single time you broke the promise You looked me dead in the eyes and lied It's just a matter of time I push all of you bastards out I'll take all of you traitors out The last breath I'll take This last breath I'll take I push all of you bastards out I'll take all of you traitors out The last breath I'll take The last breath I'll take is yours Is yours 04. Narcissist Music by Kataklysm Lyrics by Maurizio Iacono
Narcissist
Narcissist You're a narcissist and you can't lie Everything you spit is bulletproof Because you're godlike But I see right through you You're a coward You're weak and distorted You're a fraud You're just human I bet you'll never see this coming I bet you worship the gods of deceit I see you dwell in your heaven Where the pit of snakes dwell to rot forever I'm here driven to cast you out... You're a narcissist and you can't see All the things that lead the blind You drown in yourself The mirror of death You're a liar, liar You're a narcissist, narcissist You're a venom, venom You're a narcissist 05. Born To Kill And Destined To Die Music by Kataklysm Lyrics by Maurizio Iacono
Born to kill and destined to die
We got the seed It's deep inside And ready to bloom Ready to strike It's waiting in the dark It's looming in the front Cast aside your dreams Cast aside your demons Bred to kill with no remorse Bred to feed the god machine Bred to walk among the dead Bred to dictate the way of life Your hope is my demise The sky will come falling down We're born to kill and destined to die Born to kill and destined to die Don't you threat on me Don't you disrespect where you come from Where you breathe, where you live And where you'll die Where you'll die I am lawless Feel the cut from the broken glass Head first in the fire Fall down to the traitors above You crawl left to burn I am lawless Feel the cut from the broken glass Head first in the fire Left to burn Born to kill Destined to die Born to kill Destined to die Born to kill Destined to die Born to kill Destined to die 06. In Limbic Resonance Music by Kataklysm Lyrics by Maurizio Iacono
Ride along the fiery skies above
Walk the path of the fearless ambition that crushes the souls below Hand me the light that will bleed the sun to dark Then let the ravens roam the faithless core Connected through the parallel abyss Struggle the fear of failure beneath the horizon Let the vision guide you to the gates of knowledge Bleed the fears your mind beholds Shatter the chains that nail you down Eclipse the mirrors of deceit Trample down the faithful assassins And taste the blade of vengeance In limbic resonance Pull me up from these drowning waters Intensify the core inside Pull me up from the fire below Intensify my will to survive Survive I will be the one to stand above all I will be the one to reign again 07. And Then I Saw Blood Music by Kataklysm Lyrics by Maurizio Iacono
And then I saw blood
I saw your life fading away I saw you fall to darkness I saw you blame me for everything So hate me, love me Envy me, but destroy me For everything you cannot be Cannot see and cannot feel Above all the loyalty You're a traitor to your own heart I'll never stand in your way No I'll never stand in your way Of self-destruction Rise above the shadows Rise above your empty words I walk the path of those who battle Beyond redemption Slave You're a slave to all your demons Take a bite of this rotten apple See your fate unfold Let temptation walk right through you Bleed you dry into a venomous snake Take the steps of decay And forever lay to rest And then I saw blood I saw the truth stabbing your heart I saw your core bleeding to death I saw your fear fading away So hate me, love me Envy me, but destroy me For everything you cannot be Cannot see and cannot feel Through your everything Let the world sow, everything falls Let the guilt of sin die In the wake of the burning sun Salvation will never come Betrayer of souls Our bound forever lost Forever lost Rise above the shadows Rise above your empty words I walk the path of those who battle Beyond redemption 08. What Doesn't Break Doesn't Heal Music by Kataklysm Lyrics by Maurizio Iacono
What doesn't break, doesn't heal
The faster you learn, the slower you burn What doesn't break, doesn't heal The faster you learn, the quicker they turn Break it, just take it and seize it Let the pain become your strength Your altar, your tower Your everything, everything They said I'd fall in the ocean of failure, failure They said I'd crawl to the gates of hell, to the gates of hell But I'm hard to kill, hard to kill, I'm here for the hunt And want it all, and want it all, I'll take it all, I'll take it all Bring me your tyrants Bring me your gods Bring me your wrath Bring me your hate What doesn't break, doesn't heal What doesn't break, doesn't heal What doesn't break, doesn't heal I drank from your poisoned well, yeah I walked on your rusted nails I drowned in your sea of blood And I'm still alive, still alive, still alive I'm still alive 09. Bend The Arc, Cut The Cord Music by Kataklysm Lyrics by Maurizio Iacono
Bend the arc and cut the cord
Let the rage and blood flow Imagine the world you left behind Coming for vengeance with the gods below And they'll never let go Till you give up your soul In the fire of rejection Bend the arc and cut the cord Live your life in torment and hell There's no choice for you my friend All the guilt will swallow you whole And they'll never let go Till you give up your soul In the fire of rejection And they'll never let go Till you give up your soul In the fire of rejection Can you withstand the pressure within Can you carry the knives that will serve her to your death They will topple your kingdom and bring you to your knees So bend the arc and cut the cord Bend the arc and cut the cord Bend the arc and cut the cord Bend the arc and cut the cord 10. Achilles Heel Music by Kataklysm Lyrics by Maurizio Iacono
Can you hear them screaming? As they storm into the night
Where shadows take cover and lash at the light King of the fallen, you come to pay Pay the gate keeper To save your soul... betray your dreams untold... Son of lies... fire of the gods... Descend the arrows (descend the arrows) Upon the burning bodies (upon the burning bodies) You left to die To die Fear me In your darkest hour I climb the ladder of snakes Enthralled and mangles Stay with me Until the very end No matter how hard you fall You'll always be my Achilles' heel In war defeated In triumph uplifted I lift the spirit of victory Dawn the new age Where everything means nothing Where you're swallowed in black And the vultures fly above Denied existence As you fall to your knees Stay with me Until the very end No matter how hard you fall You'll always be my Achilles' heel |
