Only Death Remains
02:22

In a time long since
A time of repent
In a quaint lonely town
Sits a man with a frown
No job no family no crown
His luck had ran out
Lost and alone the streets were his home
His only thought "why do we exist"
He longed for only one thing
The world to bow at his feet
They all should feel his secret fear
(The) dismal drear, pain made him sincere
The world was a sandbox
For the wretched to create
Their own conditions to win
But he wouldn't let them have their way
Ge pleads the eradication of disease
Then he proceeds like an ominous breeze through the trees
Stay back, the wretched they screamed
As they were thrown to their knees
Feel death, not just mocking you,
Not just stalking you, but inside you
Wriggle and writhe
Feel smaller than his might
Seizure in the pestilence, his scythe
Die.
-inspired by T.J. Lane's poem-

Destroy Enslave Consume
02:24
|

Waking up each morning
To find yourself knee deep
Bound to a system
That doesnt want you to be free
Breaking your spirit so eventually
It will be easier to bend your fucking will
Bound to a concrete cage
Nourishing only dissatisfaction
Anxiety-driven rage
Endless need to consume
It has gone to shit
Humanity's (become) filth
Pollution at its peak
Masses compliant
To a great tyrant
Accepting his leash
Everneeding
Of his deceiving
Just blindly believing
Self-destructive
Lusting for power
when did we become so trifling
Bound to a concrete cage
Nourishing only dissatisfaction
Anxiety-driven rage
Endless need to consume

The Greatest Demagogue
02:21
|
|||
A new age has dawned for humanity
So prosperous, egalitarian, just
We only missed one important thing
Control was taken away from us
Bombarded daily by what they want us to see
To feel, to think, to evaluate
Do you now see the contradiction
Do you fucking see?
Thousands die everyday
Sacrificed upon the altar
Of what they call justice
Of what actually is greed
Enfeeble the minds of the people
Degradation slowly rising
Deceive in order to prevail
Fear of terror, terrorizing
Who is to judge
Who is to punish
The greatest demagogue

Stories are the foundation of identity
So here's one to change your own
Left alone, with nothing to call your own
Under the crushing weight of grief
Let it take full effect
Your world will sunder
The body will quickly follow
Pain won't recede
A dire need to breathe
Your former state of self forever buried deep
Buried deep
Inside a place there's no relief
Looking for the means to justify
A wound that's being festering inside
The end to this misery is close
When you've left your former self behind

Cage Of Fear
01:34
|
|||
Abusive behavior
Powerplay schemes
A constant struggle
To reign supreme
Border expansion
You fight for control
Forcing on mothers
A heavy toll
Neverending campaign
For who will be king
No matter the age
It's always the same
To fight for justice
Our innate call
It's on these feelings
You prey upon
Tread on ideals
For "freedom's" sake
Behind the scenes
Corruption seeps
Cesspool of lies
Cage of fear
Silence the voices
That defy your drear

State Of Decay
01:54
|
|||
We are living in a constant
State of decay
Constant march towards death
That will never change
The years pass us by
Without us taking notice
Stop and think for a moment
What is really worth it
Clock is ticking life away
Devoid of emotion, that will never change
You cannot escape from your fate
