Tracks



01. The Great Dividers

It's true there were better ones
That led their people
It's true there were better ones
To lead their country
It's true there were better ones
Who cared for this world
It's true there were better ones
But who are we to change
Without the strength of all
The nations will crumble

Feed lies for war
Bring the nations to it's knees
Risking worldy structure and integrity

The balance of our kind
Controlled by hatred, distorted truth and lies
United is the only way to stand

Leaders of the free world
Lead into the land of the un-free.

God sent politics
Hammered down with a fist too bold
Play the council of pawns
In the quest of total control.

Free us of this hate
Free us from this hate.

Take over the world
Does hate mean freedom?
Divide our home
Does hate mean freedom?
Take over the world
Does hate mean freedom?

Does hate mean freedom?
Take over the world, divide our world

02. Failure

What have we done?
Never thought that life would come to this
Eternal sense of self hatred
Blame not who, but ask us why we did

This is an open book of failure
Deceive ourselves all that we can, so we can be

Cycle of life disrupted
Halted by a force too close to home
Guilt runs through our blood
Close your eyes and let yourself forget

This guilt runs on and on
Consumed our senses gone

Torn, these wings of spirit
Godless relations
Scar this heart beyond all hope to heal
This being won't meet this world
I know I'll take this to my grave
All but saved

Die for us, my child

This is an open book of failure.
Deceive ourselves all that we can, so we can be.

I walk each step in anger
Found fault in our design
Now I kneel down to pray
To plead for a better time
Now I kneel down to pray
In hopes to awake from this.

Die, my child

03. This Lying World

Be afraid of infection
Be scared of evil ways
Be scared for your protection
Best watch your every step

Instinctual appeal to fear
Collapse and paralyze
Far gone is good intention
Smokescreen to commercialize

Teller of tales, spin us a line
Front page impersonation
Teller of tales, spin us a line
Front page impersonation

Cities burn, the skies will fall
Civilization reduced to nothing
Disease will spread to all, we buy so we survive
Feel the acid rain corrode

Well, I want to take a picture
Well, our lives would look disguised
Well, I want to take a picture
Well, our lives would look disguised

Wash away this lying world
Terminate this iron fist

Go

Strangled are we
By the bastards of racist culture
Strangled are we
By the hands of our own people

Well, on the stage, it's our lives

Well, on the stage grows a mountain
As we stumble on we forget
Well, on the stage grows a mountain
As we stumble on we forget

Oh

Steel toed this path of corruption
Conceal and steer our minds away
Steer our minds away

04. Black Hearts Now Reign

Take. Rob this world of resource
Burn the oil for fortune
Stealing from our savior
In quest of power.

Sealed, our fate is catastrophic
The coming days of failure
Aborting evolution
In quest of power

Take all you want
And theses bloody skies will reign
Take what's hers
And these bloody skies will reign
These bloody skies will reign
These bloody skies will reign

Oh mother, close your eyes
These bloody skies will reign
Dear savior, brace your heart
These bloody skies will reign

Take. Rob this world of resource
Burn the oil for fortune
Stealing from our savior
In quest of power

Sealed, our fate is catastrophic
The coming days of failure
Aborting evolution
In quest of power

Blackened lives
Sunless skies
Our bare world weeps
Black hearts now reign

Blasphemous corruption
Controlling progression
Our bare world weeps
Black hearts now reign

In solitude, a lonely voice is heard
This future of despair is easy to avoid
This future of despair is easy to avoid

Lies strangle this world's hope
In quest of power
In quest of power
In quest of power

05. Zombie Autopilot

It was last night on the midnight train back home
I ran into this one yet unfamiliar tone I know I should have known
It was last night
I knew I should have known.

Chaos
Our busy minds asleep
We drudge across the land
Is this the coming end of our monarchy

Harmless
We meet increased demands
Is this the life we all had in our dreams
Our eternal nightmare

All of us are blind to others
All of us are blind to others
All of us are blind to others
All of us are blind to others

Hide behind our plans to nothing
All of us are blind to others
All of us are blind to others
Hide behind our plans to nothing

Cage us
We weep in self defeat
All humanity is lost
In this eternal nightmares

All days are lost to conditioned zones
All days are lost to what we know
All days are lost to conditioned zones
All days are lost to what we know

Free us, a piece of mind
Gone are dreamers who strive to know

All of us are blind

06. Bloodlust Of The Human Condition

We feed this hunger for horror
Cold is the human heart, is the human mind
All born with sickness and impurity
Bloodlust of the human condition

Dark fears are wanted
Spread it
So these eyes can capture doom
Thirst for destruction will feed this firestorm
Until we're gone.

I can no longer close my eyes
This is our mortality
Taken away is our hope
Clip our wings
Crush

Our dreams
This is a part of us all
Clip our wings, crush our dreams
Forever a part of us all.

We feed on horror
Sold is the human soul for crimes in nature
It's our bloodlust condition.

Dark fears are wanted
Spread it
So these eyes can capture doom
Thirst for destruction will feed this firestorm
Until we're gone

We feed on horror
We're drawn into these open wounds
The crowds all gather to feed their bloodlust

07. Lie To Purify

Consumed by self loving pain, self loathing bliss
It eats away, burns you like a cancer

The feelings inside mask your size
With your will
Now you fall
From heart and soul

Break years of frustration
All to plain to see, ease into war
Invade with foul fingers
Lie to purify, crushing what's not you.

They say some are born with a blackened heart
Fell to the curse of a bastard life
They say some are born with a blackened heart
Fell to the curse of a bastard life
Cursed with a bastard life

Your lust to celebrate your name
Will cause your fall, your fall
Can't change years of frustration
All have yearned to see the pedestal crumble

Ignored acts of aggression
Falsify to slave
Avoiding all that's true

You stand up
Then you fall, then you fall
Heartless soulless appetite.

You're crossing almost every line
Now it's time to wash away
You lost your way
To wash away
You crossed the line
To wash away
You lost your way

To wash away
You lost your way
To wash away
You crossed the line
To wash away
You lost your way

Consumed by self loving pain, self loathing bliss
It eats away, burns you like a cancer

The feelings inside mask your size
With your will
Now you fall
From heart and soul

08. Endless

Shadows of doubt consume you
The light you barely see
Growing wings of sorrow,
Have brought you to the winds of plague

Increscent boundaries fade the way
A barren future all to real
And still I try to seek up and find the flame
And still I try, inside

It's endless
A barren future all to real
And still I try

Endless fight
Endless tragedy
Endless lunacy

Chalk up the past as a memory
This battering sickness has surely won
Chalk up the past as a memory
This battering sickness has surely won

All I have wasted
Will this erase me
All I have wasted
Wash away

All I have wasted
Will this erase me
All I have wasted
Will this erase me

Time to clean my wounds
Can I win this battle inside and out
Can I win this battle inside, outside

Endless fight
Endless tragedy
Endless lunacy

09. Aries

Cowardly warrior vents his rage
His lust for blood cannot be appeased
What fickle angels are we
Our divided brothers we slay
His lust will erase all

10. Predetermined Sky

In the heart of the land of creation
Grows a threat which cannot be healed
Efforts soar to restore generations
Grave results give this outbreak the nail.

The growing devastation
Brings human extinction
This plague aims at our weakness
Predetermined sky

Cradles fall into pine for the mourning
Wailing cries blend endless each day
Poverty proves more than a lifestyle
Sympathy can not cure disease

This plague aims at our weakness
Predetermined sky, blind eye
This plague aims at our weakness
Predetermined sky, blind eye

Saw a man on the streets of Lusaka
Selling coffins to a passerby
How can we live in a world that lets millions die?
How can we live with such a tragic side?

Saw a man on the streets of Lusaka
Selling coffins to a passerby
How can we live in a world that lets millions die
That lets millions cry, that let's us agonize

Show us the way to terminate
Immersed in all our dusts is the mother world

11. False Idols

I never cared to know your name
Roll out the red, it's all the same
False idols scream for our love
Compete for stage devote for name

It's all pathetically the same
It's all pathetically the same

Convinced of starlight beauty
A must watch all tune in
A celebration heartache
Hail, false heroes

Surrender to our envy
No boundaries left untouched
No passion left for memories
No passion for real memories

Here we stand
Here we stand

Lessened are the far and few
Who sustain, protect and nurture

Convinced of starlight beauty
A must watch all tune in
A celebration heartache
Hail, false heroes

Surrender to our envy
No boundaries left untouched
No passion left for memories
No passion for real memories

Who stands before us?
We lay our lives down for the star
Who stands before us?
We lay our lives down for the star

Who stands before us?
As we speak, we lay our lives down for the star

We lay our lives down
We lay our lives down

I never cared to know your name
Roll out the red, it's all the same
False idols scream for our love
Compete for stage devote for name

It's all pathetically the same
It's all pathetically the same

Here we stand
Here we stand
