Tracks



01. Sons Of The System

I drift and fall in space

I twist like a vermin in deformed shifters
Eyes turn to black
Fear is your god
I'm just a shadow lost in space
Oh. I'm fading in motion
Into the system
We are the sons of the system
We rise and fall
We'll make the corrupted bleed for our existence
Nothing to fear, only what you can hear

WE ARE THE SONS OF THE SYSTEM
WE RISE AND FALL

The wind of enslavement is blowing
The pulse of extinction arising
These are the sounds of sorrow
These are the cries of
The sons of tomorrow
Fear is god into the system
We are the sons of the system
We rise and fall
Will we rise
Will we fall

02. Diesel Uterus

Adrenaline rising, twisting and crawling
Implanted inside, this chemical imbalance turns us to lifeless puppets
March in hordes, assembled as components for the new world
Screenlines dancing in our eyes
Our lives, dying in our arms
Senses bypassed by this corruption, we're all born in a diesel uterus
This chemical imbalance is telling me there is no end
A digital venom strangling the world
Screenlines dancing in our eyes
Our lives, dying in our arms
Screenlines dancing in our eyes
Our lives, dying in our arms
My dreams my believes dictated
Read your revelation from this scorched earth
Pray for your new god
Salvation is only a word
Screenlines dancing in our eyes
Our lives dying in our arms
Screenlines dancing in our eyes
Our lives dying in our arms

03. Mnightmare

Give it to me
Shout it to me
You just pathetic piece of truth
Will never be the same
Who will be the one to blame
Will I ever be the same
You will be the one to blame
You will be the one to blame
Through years of sorrow
The humans that we are
Are crawling down below
We are slaves to ourselves
Slaves to ourselves
Will we ever be the same
Will we ever be the same
We're sick
Sick of fighting everyday
Sick of lying everyday
Sick of all
Blinded by storms around you
You need an earthquake to wake up
Before the light is gone
Before the life is gone

Leave aside the colossal hypocrisy
The general hypocrisy
Rent yourself an opinion
Rent yourself an opinion
We're sick
Sick of fighting everyday
Sick of dying anyway

We're sick of all
You will be the one to blame
You will be the one to blame
Back in the old days
Programmed to live your life superior
But now your life is gone
But now the light is gone
We're still sick
Sick of fighting everyday
Sick of lying everyday
Sick of dying anyway
We're sick
Sick of fighting everyday
Sick of lying everyday
Sick of dying anyway
Sick of all

04. The Erasing

It's been a while we've
Lost the human poetry
The future no longer shines

The CANCER is growing
We're both
A piece of death
A piece of life
But
Can we cancel the erasing
Replacing
We're faking
Falling off the chair again

I came here to warn you
This future no longer shines
We are hypocrisy
We are wasteful
We are fantasy
But can we cancel the erasing
Replacing
We're faking
Falling off the chair again
Falling off the chair again

We're both
A piece of death
A piece of life
We're both
Morality
Insanity
Replacing
Falling off the chair again
Falling off the chair again
Falling off the chair again

05. Climbing Towards Stars

Take a walk
Take the last step
Towards the end
On the backbone of night
These Might be the last steps we set
As we climb to the stars
As we climb to the stars
Towards the end
A depressive earth with a depressive shape
They will tear holes into the ground
Then we will watch the world burn down
The world burn down
It seems today has come for my
Please GOD
Come save me
Take a walk
Take a step forward and don't look back
As the world burns in silence
No one's there to challenge as we climb to the stars
As we climb to the stars
It seeems today has come for me
Please GOD
Come save me
Take a walk
Take a step forward and don't look back
As the world burns in silence no one's there to challenge
As we climb towards the stars
Take a walk
Take the last step
Towards the end
On the backbone of the night
These might be the last steps we set
As we climb to the stars
As we climb to the end
It seems today has come for me
Please GOD
Come save me

06. March Of The Tripods

Do you feel the machines coming?
Do you feel the storm rising?
Because they're coming
I feel them rising
It feels like it's about to happen

I can breathe the smell of blades of steel
I can see their light but it's not that clear
Because they're watching
I feel them staring
I feel them staring at us
It feels like it's about to happen

Change is about to happen
It feels more like I am dying
This black hole leaving me hopeless
Leaving me hopeless

I'm not made of wires
I'm not made of others
You try to synchronize me
You try to synchronize me
The locust is just too far away
While the tripods are marching
I am made of wires
I am made of others
Now I'm made of wires

Did you feel the machines coming?
Did you feel the storm rising?
Because now they're reigning
We're suffocating
We're suffocating alone

It feels like it has just happened

07. Fate

You think you teach me
How to intensify myself
You'd better watch me
Throwing all the pressure away
You should have taught me
How to hypnotize my faith
You'd better watch me
Throwing all the pressure away

Day after day
It's just the same old song
I'm fading away

Will I get old
Will I get old
I will get old

You should have taught me
To wipe your own dirt to blind me
You should have watched me
Smashing your face up along my way
You shouldn't have told me
How to liquify my fate
You should have watched me

Will I get old
Will I get old

But through your eyes again
Some of us will stare

You think you teach me
You think you know me
You think you watch me
You think you know me

Will I get old
Will I get old

But through your eyes again
Some of us will stare
Through your eyes again

Some of us will stare...

08. Hero(in)

More than just a need
It fills you up with dark secrets
More than just a dream
Plunging yourself in a fake world

In a fake world
With fake words

More than just a fear
Filling you up with angry tears
More than just a need
Dying again and living again everyday

On the edge we stand
On the edge we stand
Alone once again
All my feelings
Are fading away

This soul domination
Is taking you away
Physical domination
But still you beg for more
But still you beg for
More than just a fear
Filling you up with angry tears
More than just a need
Dying again and living again everyday

On the edge we stand
On the edge we stand
Alone once again
All my feelings
Are fading away

More than just a need
More than just a dream
More than just a fear
More than just all

On the edge we stand
On the edge we stand

On the edge we stand
On the edge we stand
Alone once again
All my feelings
Are fading away

Are just fading away

09. Elongated Sporadic Bursts

Spiritual sickness spreads in me
Plan out the future until you know what there will be
Until you know what there will be

(When the dust)
When the dust settles
You've become free

The fire inside feels like it's about to burst
Everything seems to much, I don't feel at home
I feel so goddamn empty, everey day is eating a piece away
Until there is no more left of me

Until there is no more left of me
Elongated sporadic bursts
Until there is no more left of me
Leaving my body cold

Calculating a new apocalypse
Thread the result to create your world
No one hears the voice of sanity in this Maelstrom
(in this Maelstrom)

(When the dust)
When the dust settles
You've become free

My dreams are all what I will ever have
Plan out the future until you know what there will be
Until you know what there will be

(When the dust)
When the dust settles
You've become

(When the dust)
When the dust settles
You've become free

Free

10. Within

You'll never reach the surface
Never reach the surface
Surfing underneauth the goddamn truth

Piercing the shield
Piercing the shield
Piercing the shield within your mind

Piercing the shield
Piercing the shield
Piercing the shield within your mind

(Within your mind)
Within your mind
The truth is fading away
Will I ever get through?

No matter the pain
No matter if it's in vain (if it's in vain)
No matter the pain
No matter if you get insane
No matter if you get insane

You feel so fucking down
Don't you feel alive
You feel so fucking down
Don't you feel alive

You're just a time bomb
No matter if you're right or wrong
This is just your damn song
No matter if you're right or fucking wrong

No matter the pain
No matter if it's in vain (if it's in vain)
No matter the pain
No matter if you get insane

No matter the pain
No matter if it's in vain (if it's in vain)
No matter the pain
No matter if you get insane
No matter if you get insane

No matter if it's in vain
No matter if you get insane

No matter the pain
No matter if it's in vain (if it's in vain)
No matter the pain
No matter if you get insane

11. Orbiting

No anger.
No pity.
My god,
No fear!

Orbiting my thoughts around this world
I get to the point where I have to abandon all hope

So far where no one hears me now
No one hears me now

I only see the blood falling down
I get the feeling this will never happen
Barbed wire, wrapped around my face
Wrapped around my face

Orbiting in dark matter
Even death could be better

No one hears me now
See the blood falling down

I get to the point where I have to abandon it all
No one hears me anymore
Keep your head looking towards the sky
Towards the sky
Towards the sky

See the blood falling down, coming down
Man has gone where no one else has gone before
Man has gone where no one else has been before

I only see the blood falling down
I get the feeling this will never happen
Barbed wire, wrapped around my face
Wrapped around my face

No one hears me now
See the blood falling down
Down

Orbiting in dark matter
Even death could be better

Could be better...
