Tracks



01. All That Remains

Powerlines... steel webs confine, violating the brownish sky.
Hard grey smothers, earth, like cancer.
Cracks revealing, ground below broken and bleeding every seed every stone.
I've heard the promise, I feel hunger, I realize.
As time creeps over me and days are torn away.
There are no answers only bitter lies, the only voice I'm believing is the Beckoning blade.

I know the feeling the loss of control
Voice of reason slips away
Eyes staring back at me
So dark, so cold
Reflecting all that remains

I know the enslaver.
I taste its poison... felt its sting deep inside.
It has mo answer, only the bitter lies but its voice I'm hearing,
Keep calling my name.

Who can tell the torture of the soul?
Is it wrong... tell me is it wrong... to close your eyes... to sleep forever?

02. Betrayed

When the night comes
Run Away
When the night fall calls out your name.
The lust you feel
Has cause pain
Silent in the morning light
Go home to your betrayed.

When the night comes
Run and hide
When the night falls
Get inside
It belongs to the betrayed
Who can't decide
To live or die.
Something's on their minds...
It doesn't matter
They're just killing time.
I like the way the knife feels in your back.

Words fall
Between us
Lying in the dust, no trust
Their shadows cover us.
Recite this vow together
Swear on
Our souls forever
In nothing, in no one. Can we trust

Without mercy
Without pity
We silent stalk
The streets of the city looking for you
I am betrayed. You will feel my rage
You fucking goddamn king of the world.

03. Emily

Nocturnal shades of blue dance before her eyes,
And call to me pleading please don't lie.
In her darkest hour
Emily knows
The fate of whores....
Who lie down...
And swear the sacred words.

Love was just something I did to survive
Love was just something I did to get by.

Like a circus clown with her painted frown.
Sun going down and the long night begins.
Harvest
Where will you run to now?
You've betrayed all who cared.
Harvest.

It never changes,
It goes round,
And round
Round.

You've got the need I got you suck me or you rot...

04. Red To Grey

She cals out to you
From behind sin's doorway

Her 13 years have left her so calloused so diseased...

Oh still she's begging you

Like you wish your daughter would...
Half a word away
Betrayal fills her eyes

It's the sick of the unkind years...
And scars start to form

A tangled web of shame

Across her bleeding, tortured flesh...
And you want more

To take her down with you,
Beneath the crimson tide.
Slip... silently... under... the... water
(Remember no pain) Lost in the rapture
You're running fast from the past
But it's freeze framed... you can't see what's beyond.
Her voice keeps echoing... your name... you keep remembering

The world so cold to you
You get what you gave
The world so cold it's true
When the red... turns... to... grey

When she's on her knees... sche's saying a prayer for me
And through the frenzied feed... she's saying a prayer for me
And through the waiting tide offered sanctuary...
I know she's saying a prayer for me
She just needed... someone to love her...
She just needed a kind word...

Crawling, calling across your memories.
Torture you.

05. Diseased

Cold wars... genocide...
Slavery of man
Third world poverty...
Multimillionaires

Mass starvation, but don't be alarmed
That part of population doesn't matter much anyway.
Blood drunk like water, now no more rain
No more victims for the altar, in the temple of decay.

Watch the frightened refugee seeking sanctuary.
His government want him dead...
He has no choice.

Old woman in the gutter, barely alive
The crown turns..
looks away
The never ask why.

Why are we DESEASED?

06. Wasted Time

Words can't say
The way I feel

Words can't save me

Faith has been broken
I'm no longer blind

Faith has been broken
Time after time

Harsh words are spoken
By those who deny
Harsh words are spoken

Lies always lies

He whispered "Be kind to me
Come kill me one more time
I'm lost in bitter rage".
Why, tell me why

Holding on to the pain
Holding on, watch life fade
Holding on the past
Holding on, to wasted time

I can't see through delusion
Oh I'm trying

Isn't life strange
When you're living a lie.

07. Love's Death

Whispers in the darkness
Cold lies burn like fire
Page turn slowly
Fading the flame of desire
Unholy flame of desire

You come crawling down upon your knees
Liar
You come crawling begging baby please

Love's death is a slow death
Is a Quick death
But once it's over
Fate's hand is a cold hand
Is a sly hand is the hand on your shoulder
But now you're older

You come crawling down upon your knees
Liar
You come crawling 'cause I got what you need
Liar
You come crawling begging me baby please

08. White Door

As you go down
Under the ocean
You reach out
For something
To believe
Doubt nothing

Be not decieved

09. Drift

Do you ever think about tomorrow?
Do you ever think about yesterday?
Do you ever feel sorrow?
Over what you've left drift away?

Lie alone rotting...
Calling out for compassion...
Far a final act...
Tthey'll gladly pay...
You know you're just another...
Broken brother...
Scared sister...
No one will ever miss you
Anyway.

Do you ever think about the otherside?
And who's waiting for you there?
I'll be waiting for you dear.
When the suck you in.

Waiting for the door to be kicked in
Waiting for the head to hit the ground
Waiting for my heart to stop beating

Yesterday is dead and gone
Tomorrow is out of sight
It's so sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

You're lost in the drift
That's what you want isn't it?

You're lost in the drift
That's fucking tough isn't it?

You're lost in the drift
You get what you gave yes
