1. World In My Eyes
Big brother is surveying…
Can’t elude his instruments of watch
Tracking every movement
Espionage on those he don’t trust
Disinformation
His best weapon or so it seems
Those thoughts he needs to control
Who knows who might just mass against him?
Aside this world that’s supposed to be free
Living machines that don’t need gasoline
First to the mill receives the first bill
Which we’ll pay for the rest of our lives!
By choice or birthright?
Pride (our pride)
How often it’s been the one that shames us
Mind (our mind)
Never to smart to be outsmarted
Ever flowing stream
Neurons of a mechanical state
Drones of the new world
Bow down to your newborn fate
Aside this world that’s supposed to be free
Living machines that don’t need gasoline
First to the mill receives the first bill
Which we’ll pay for the rest of our lives!
By choice or birthright?
This is the world I despise!
This is the world in my eyes!
By choice or birthright?
Maybe its time we realize
You’ll never see that place again
By choice or birthright?
This is the world in my eyes!
On course, of course!
A system made out to enslave us
A right of the unrighteous
A law for the unknowing self-contagious
Marching to a beat the machines set with no relent
Truth outset
The questions remain
Shame you’ve lost your freedom
I can’t get rid of this feeling
Why are we lost in hate?
This true life we’re concealing
With all lost what’s at stake
What am I? A part of the plot to control my own thoughts
I cannot die - my precious life belongs to the conquering robots
Too soulless to feel the itching sting of consciousness
What would stability be without the element of chaos!
This is the world in my eyes!
By choice or birthright?
Maybe its time we realize
You’ll never see that place again
By choice or birthright?
This is the world in my eyes!
2. Misplaced?
Am I lost or am I at the place to be?
Never mind my lacking confidence
Am I still a man?
All I know is that this ship’s going down
In this world what more could you expect
Shrink my dignity then crave respect
Am I though my own enemy?
So frustrated, so misplaced
Faith?
At what cost do you sell you’re soul
Hate?
I’m not the one crumbling inside
Conceit?
Who says I’m suddenly so bold?
Save me!
And who’s free?
A piece of mind, a piece of me and a piece of that
Well I’ve had enough of this show
There is nothing more
I might be stupid but I ain’t slow
Should I applaud when I know you’ve won
Don’t expect something like that “son”
Do you need a clue?
So frustrated, so misplaced
Faith?
At what cost do you sell you’re soul
Hate?
I’m not the one crumbling inside
Conceit?
Who says I’m suddenly so bold?
Save me!
And who’s free?
Psychiatric bullshit lasts. Thrash!
Faith?
At what cost do you sell you’re soul
Hate?
I’m not the one crumbling inside
Conceit?
Who says I’m suddenly so bold?
Save me!
And who’s free?
3. Equal To None
Don’t you worry my life is unsaveble
I’m just your average expendable motherfucker
Each day we pray to see another day but our God is laughing…
Because whatever happens we’ll believe we died in his name
And the rest of the whole can watch when true diplomacy makes its claim
Burst forth – like they’d never see us coming
First fall – your words are never too insulting
Do we see the tragedy?
Just our nature to be cold
Does it hurt too much to care?
Ideal cause for a piece of land
Swallow truth
Something they’ll never be able to bear
Like the flags they wave when they send us away, would resemble some kind of comfort
Always in the hands of faith, why this love we have for this cycle of hate
Is this idealism? What are we moving blindly towards?
What have we to show? When all that’s coming back is simply dead!
Feel the blood rush through your body, go in for the kill: it’s a feeling I can’t explain
Never quite sure what we’re fighting for, we march straight back out all over again
Is this our destiny’s call, is this the solemn law
Make sure the rest of the whole world is duly fucking entertained
Burst forth – like they’d never see us coming
First fall – your hate is never too insulting
Do we see the tragedy?
Just our nature to be cold
Does it hurt too much to care?
Ideal cause for a piece of land
Swallow truth
Something they’ll never be able to bear
What if we made a war so horrible?
That even God would have to step out of bubble
Well, where’s your merciful God now?
Do we see the tragedy?
Just our nature to be cold
Does it hurt too much to care?
Ideal cause for a piece of land
Swallow truth
Something they’ll never be able to bear
4. Pucture
I would never lie
Defy that I’ve crossed the line
Have you ever felt this way?
Or does it come too late?
Believe me, I’ve been there before
And it’s nothing I want to restore
They (…so ungodly) feed on my pain
Freed?
I never felt so deceived deep down inside
So strong, so hard-hitting
Cut the crap, stop bullshitting
Listen to the puncture sound
As all our lives go down
They (…so ungodly) feed on my pain
Have I crawled enough for your eyes to see?
Your world and how you critically perceive
The weakness in me I loathe to contain
Tell me should you or I explain?
They (…so ungodly) feed on my pain
(won’t bleed for you more)
`Cause I’ve had enough of this
Like life is a wandering bliss
Seen all this before
I hate what I adore (repent?)
Punctured like a freak
Is all this shit for me?
Sow but not to reap
And just a follower of the sheep!
Content?
A struggle for nothing
Never believing
Caught up inside of trying to become:
Free of all cause!
5. Benefit Of Doubt
Avoid the consequences
Can’t stand by your own actions
Get your savior who has power to free you from these sanctions
A Jesus in disguise
A lawyer who believes he’s Christ
(yeah) This is what it’s all about - manipulate the benefits of doubt!
Freedom at an expense… (what!)
American justice, tell me what’s it meant to be?
Controlled by law to what degree?
An institute with such weak competence
Based on honor with no substance
Ingredients stable with the media focus
Turning courts into goddamn circus
We’re guided by a greed which makes no exception
Practice prestige!
Who cares if defendant is guilty?
Lying, acting - is this how you’ll win?
Fighting for freedom - verdict makes no sense
It won’t be luck or faith that will bring this country together
Nor the touch god or the fund-sucking congressmen (when…)
Truth is at absence!
…And these frivolous needs of our society
Renders every man his due?
These words have no meaning to me
Cause this system stands without a clue
Profit beats the way of clear conscience
Justice in the hands of truly blind goddess
We’re guided by a greed which makes no exception
Money exceeds as truth limps on
Lying, acting - is this how you’ll win?
What an illusion
That we ever could believe
That man would put equality above his own personal greed
There’s innocence, there’s pride
Then tell me why they’re used to undermine mans greatest… LIES!
It’s the right to disagree, it’s the right to say
That the system often fails but who’ll be the one to pay
Not the judges hiding behind their books, not lawyer’s firms
But the everyday citizen in a society that burns!
Truth is at absence!
A truth opposite of meaning
Still accept it through and through
Look again to see who’s bleeding
You think it doesn’t concern you -well do you?
6. Confrontation
Preaching for a new fantastic realm
Trust God: it’s us he’s out to sell
Time’s come for a new millennium
Inaugurate it with all your hate (hate!)
Chaos the infinite rivalry
Summon the hordes you cannot be stopped!
Sweet and tempting with a foul stench
Advance through social contempt
One thing is left to be asked
What the fuck do you plan to achieve?
Don’t stir too long in your own juices
Who knows when you will fry! (fry!)
Blend your cause in with a bit religion
When free thoughts are so easily strained
Confronted with individual opinion
Reach out like there’s something to feel
Wanting to come to this conclusion: gods plot is guided through me!
Anti-social fundamental approval will set our souls free! (free!)
I’m searching…
I’m clutching…
I’m breathing…
Guess what I’m seeing? Fools!
Fools on parade
Slightly strayed over loss of soul
Have you ever been tempted to free yourself of all cause?
Confide in lies you moralize
Credit for all the ideas you solemnly stole
Wwon’t shed a tear when you’re overrun
You played with lies and you’ll pay with dear life!
7. Cpr
Breathe you son of a bitch, don’t you dare let go!
Too young to die, to vile autonomy
No response and a pulse at an all time low
Please wake up my friend, I can’t stand here watching you die
Mouth to mouth, still no sign of life
Come on my friend, you can make through it
Hang on, live on, get through this day
Wake up, stand up, don’t fuck me this way, way!
Pinch you hard, but you won’t move an inch
Eyes are closed, reflexes motionless
Skin is moist, stiff, white and cold
Can I accept that there’s no more I can do? (do!)
The irony of fate
I’m sitting here crying: too proud to admit that I’ve lost it
The grim grip of reality sweeps me whole with misery
A friend so colourful, his body’s left, absent of soul
Freezes my thoughts, my will live, if there are lives to take
Who wants to give?
Eyes are blurring, is this a dream?
What’s happening to me?
It’s dark, cold and I can’t see
Can’t feel the blood in me
Emptiness, I’m falling
Illusions flash aside
A struggle to recover, inside I slowly die
I’m the fucking victim here!
8. Mental Carnage
(yeah) Higher ground, lower stream
The balance of my mind is everything but fine
But my time is coming, my time is coming
I stand in a line, next time will be mine
Scorn-blown mind-religion, there is a missing link
Between reality and what you fucking think
Movements without intention, caused by frantic fear
Numb to the chaos, so far yet so near
So what is wrong with me?
What should I do?
Searching my mind for answers, without a clue
Find my inner help, find my inner self
Falling down, climb aside
Dubbed me a mental portrait
Struggle within a state of mind
Soothing to lure all mankind
Reflecting absence truly blind
All that’s left is society’s swine
Stupidity: I am not one of a kind
Movements without intention, caused by frantic fear
Numb to the chaos, so far yet so near
So what is wrong with me?
What should I do?
Searching my mind for answers, without a clue
Find my inner help, find my inner self
So what is wrong with me? What should I do?
Searching my mind for answers, without a clue
Find my inner help, find my inner self
Scorn-blown mind-religion, there is a missing link
Between reality and what you fucking think
Strip me of a conscious in this mental Babylon
Restore me to what I once was cause already too far down
…for you!
9. Pro Patria Mori
Have I no thoughts nor sympathy?
Am I ready to kill my enemy?
Gun clutched in my fist
Why do I put my life at risk?
Stand tall, and fight with grace
Today, its death you’ll face
Neither way you’ll climb that wall
For thy country you’ll live or fall
Control? What self-esteem?
Today, no one will win
See the light, I just dig down
A shallow grave upon this ground
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms fall
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms fall
Soldier! Hold thy ground
Commanded by the proud
With every life you’re willing to take
Wars are to be won, you’re here to annihilate
Down cold, no time to run
Look up, your time has come
Seal the fate of those who die
Pro patria mori, I live the lie
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms fall
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms fall
So it’s this you call GLORY?
Up until this day I’ll be sorry…
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms fall
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms fall
10. Insecurity Secured
Victimized, paralyzed, by the thoughts you seem moralize and consent
Whose thoughts are we here to prevent?
Oh, I try so hard yet it won’t help me
My lies within me like one ton sunken concrete
Happiness just isn’t a part of me
Is flattering myself just cheap activity?
Shallow lies, indiscrete adversitiles Say am I what I am?
Compensate my missing self-respect with flaws Do I hate what I hate?
I will have to swallow my pride I am what I perpetrate?
Redraw my fault! Say am I what I am?
Consistent cries, directly demoralize Do I hate what I hate?
The core emptiness of my heart I am what I perpetrate?
Results in insecurity Just can’t erase it away
See my eyes
It’s myself I despise
Is this a serious case of bad karma?
You think I’m not that kind (oh you wish)
Am I in control of my sordid little brain?
Determine if I’m dumb or insane
Shallow lies, indiscrete adversitiles Say am I what I am?
Compensate my missing self-respect with flaws Do I hate what I hate?
I will have to swallow my pride I am what I perpetrate?
Redraw my fault! Say am I what I am?
Consistent cries, directly demoralize Do I hate what I hate?
The core emptiness of my heart I am what I perpetrate?
Results in insecurity Just can’t erase it away
See my eyes
It’s myself I despise
11. Virtues Of Misfortune
I’ve been a formidable sinner, a creep of deceit, a false winner
Crossed my love to make myself look better
Don’t tell me that ain`t the miserable life of a cheater
Somewhere another place for me
Another place, another way
The pain I gave wouldn’t let me rest my soul
It’s time to stop living in denial
A second chance: like reaching out for sand
Before I knew it had it slipped out of my hands
Is this chain of pain, too thick for you?
Too far in contempt, no need to repent?
A loss of soul, too damaged to be repaired
A strain of lust, I was much too afraid to share
On a whole: did I learn from my…
(On a whole) misfortune
I plead now like no one else has done it
Could you ever see it in your heart… NO!
Somewhere another place for me
Another place, another way
The pain I gave wouldn’t let me rest my soul
It’s time to stop living in denial
A second chance: like reaching out for sand
Before I knew it had it slipped out of my hands
I could never find out what was wrong
Nothing was making me strong
And my will to live was gone!
Was my rage blinding me all along?
12. Entity
What am I, wrapped up in this tissue, in this mortal flesh
A frail creature called human, that gives life only to give death!
An aura of content, caused by recent, lost in a feeling that’s beyond my body
A life away, seemingly safe, brought on a course that’s leaving all of me
Extract the mind, what will you find, a soul without any doubt or fear
Calm and clear, yet so afraid, that when I die that I won’t miss it all!
Have I become my own enemy! (Worst enemy)
Blind is a faith, that rules it away, the lust of the body is the soul’s life in practice
First comes the fear, that puts you in gear, so fucking consumed with my own being
Sensational joy, love turned to a toy, it’s a play where we all are actors
And what feelings have you, come to seclude, your one life to emotional penitentiary
Have I become my own enemy! (Worst enemy)
Is this state of me?
Because my thoughts are far too beyond me
Is this state of me?
A lucid flesh bound entity
Is this state of me?
That only cares about one thing: Me!
Who: am I to judge
Who: am I to feel me
Who: am I to bleed
Who: am I to breed
Who: am I to hate
Who: am I to create
Who: am I to die
Who: am I to say goodbye
