1. The Heresy (Crucify Your God)
Forged in hate, destruction and disease
Worshiping false prophets, with mouths sewn shut we scream
Disciples to chaos, enemies to order
Rectify my wretched life, quell this heresy
Dead souls, cry from their graves
The innocent are futile, to the end that tyrants crave
No faith in the grace of man
I despise this world I see
Thrust the nails through your hands
As I watch you bleed
Crucify your God, Crucify Mankind
Crucify your God
Out of the ashes, the tainted shore
Refine the holy war for black gold
Why does this stand? What will we do?
When leaders ask for blood, violence will ensue
Lost in our faith, the heretics must die
Pick up the pieces, the pieces of our shattered faith
Dead souls cry from their graves
The innocent are futile to the end that tyrants crave
No faith in the grace of man
I despise this world I see
Thrust the nails through your hands
As I watch you
Bleed faith in the grace of man
I despise this world I see
Thrust the nails through your hands
Crucify your God
2. I Am Wrath
I walk alone but not apart
From the being that I once was
Have I gone insane?
To become more than words
A spiteful conduit of fear and hate
They will fear my rage
Discard mortal shell
Vengeance straight from hell
Abolish virtue
Know that this is the end
Darkness my old friend
I am all you are!
I survive when all is lost
I have walked the darkened path
Nothing’s more, nothing’s left
I Am Wrath
I was born to take this hurt
Nurtured in pain and suffering
Splinter the armour with my dishonour
Fuck your judgement, fuck your claims
Fuck all guilt, fuck it all!
I won’t be your slave!
Know that this is the end
Darkness my old friend
I am all you are!
I survive when all is lost
I have walked the darkened path
Nothing’s more, nothing’s left
I Am Wrath
Wrath, rage, hate.
Facing the conflict, the burdens and anguish
The blood is on my hands
I survive when all is lost
I have walked the darkened path
Nothing’s more, nothing’s left
I Am Wrath
I am Wrath (Your punishment)
I am Rage (The slow descent)
I am Hate (That dwells within)
I am a monument to all your sins.
I survive when all is lost
I have walked the darkened path
Nothing’s more, nothing’s left
I Am Wrath
3. Condemned In The Throes Of Remorse
Out on the edge of reality
My life branded with nothing in sight
Hostility quickly unveils
A vexation beyond the pale
Fingers encircle the dagger
Nothing more is left to say
Take one last look in my eyes
Before I murder you with no respite
I can’t feel my own skin
Reserve the last judgement
I have become traitorous
Thrown to a circle of fire
Condemned in the Throes of Remorse
One stab one verdict of guilty
Two stabs too late to turn back
Blood thirty and homicidal
Condemn myself to my own end
I can’t feel my own skin
Reserve the last judgement
I have become traitorous
Thrown to a circle of fire
Condemned in the Throes of Remorse
Condemned!
Come on!
I can’t feel my own skin
Reserve the last judgement
I have become traitorous
Thrown to a circle of fire
Condemned in the Throes of Remorse
4. Whips And The Scorns
Falling out and embracing the fire
Giving in to what you desire
Tortured by the lie that you are
Life bound to a cancerous heart
Piercing eyes and a silver tongue
If there’s no pain then it’s no fun
I am a thrall to all the Whips and the Scorns
I’ll take it all to fulfil what I’ve sworn
Fall out, embrace the fire
Give in to what you desire
Behind those distant grey eyes
Is where I put my faith in you, my faith in me
And now it’s sealed my fate
I am a thrall to all the Whips and the Scorns
I’ll take it all to fulfil what I’ve sworn
I’ll take it, take it all for you
You own me, I am yours to rule
I am a thrall to all the Whips and the Scorns
I’ll take it all to fulfil what I’ve sworn
I am a thrall to all the Whips and the Scorns
I’ll take it all to fulfil what I’ve sworn
5. Bitter Reflection
I’m looking on over at your despicable figure
Glowing with power
You think you may know me, but how could you know me
You don’t fucking know yourself
Authority, it’s a bitter niche
It ain’t what its cracked up to be
A different point of view, its all I can do
Whenever I think of you
Look at your own reflection
Your words lay hollow
See this Bitter Reflection
Can you feel it coming?
The weak idolize the strong (The weak idolize the strong)
But we will prove them wrong (Prove them wrong)
You have seen your Bitter Reflection
Retribution is now!
I’ll tear you apart, fucking bit by bit
You hypocrite, blinded by your ego and self-righteous notions
Nothing to say to the likes of you
You piece of shit, you’ll never rule
You don’t know me, you’ll never know me
You’ll never know yourself
Liquidate, Detonate, Isolate, Mutilate
The weak idolize the strong (The weak idolize the strong)
But we will prove them wrong (prove them wrong)
You have seen your Bitter Reflection
Retribution is now!
6. Age Of Fear
Watching the world, through a hole in the wall
Forever forged into a product of the system
The people lie infatuated
Witness the devastation eating away at the inside
Watching the body count rise
Twisting perception of reality
The media loves the next atrocity
Enslave the world in your horror sphere
Enslave the world, All Hail the Age of Fear
Watching the world through a hole in the wall
Disconnected from the tragedy
We welcome stories of pain and suffering
Addicts craving the agony
My mind’s had enough, can’t take this anymore
The death we all adore
Twisting perception of reality
The media loves the next atrocity
Enslave the world in your horror sphere
Enslave the world, All Hail the Age of Fear
Fear, its just another way to control
Set it off
Pray on my fear!
Watching the world forever forged
This is the age of all your fears
All hail the age of fear
7. Defiling The Soul
Straight down and six feet under
Victims to the sins of the father
The infection has run its course
Shed not a tear, show no remorse
Taking this plague from you
I’ll show you what is true
Darkness shrouds out the light
I’ll survive this blight
Bound to this world
Longing for calm
Twisting the course of my restless soul
In war I was born
Tearing me whole
Defiling the Soul
Buried deep down inside
We will rise to purge your mind
We the forgotten, the lost, the betrayed
Cast into a world of disarray
We will not be remembered in the wake of time
Speakers of dead forming the last line
Bound to this world
Longing for calm
Twisting the course of my restless soul
In war I was born
Tearing me whole
Defiling the Soul
Defile my fractured psyche
Betray the voice of the free
Bound to this world
Longing for calm
Twisting the course of my restless soul
In war I was born
Tearing me whole
Defiling the Soul
8. Behold The Tyrant's Fall
Destroy my soul
This is how it begins:
Welcome to a world gone psychotic
Fire in the sky and on the streets
The leader of the newborn state
His one goal to obliterate
Contagion deployed, engulfing the race
He controls what we feel, what we hear,
what we see, when we fear, when we die, when we bleed
Father, save us
Reclaim your power
No hope amidst the societal decay
Fanning the flames of destruction
Ignite the embers of passion
Sowing the seeds of rebellion
Whisper prayers of our salvation
Father, we pray for forgiveness
Cursing his name
We all bear witness
Control, destroy my soul
Hope lies ‘neath ground so cold
Behold the Tyrants Fall
As one we curse your name
We curse, curse your name
In silence, does echo
So sweetly, essence of truth
Control me, destroy me
Statue to fall
To fall
Control, destroy my soul
Hope lies ‘neath ground so cold
Behold the Tyrants Fall
As one we curse your name
We curse, curse your name
9. Fallen Saviour
Take back all we ever owned, and all we are
We never deserved this; we thought we came so far
The lies that run through us, define us, glorified
I’ll break free from these chains that bind
Never there when I wanted you
Never there when I needed you
I won’t fall for you, I won’t fall for you
I embrace my doom
Fallen Saviour, meet your maker
Fallen Saviour, meet your maker
I once believed in a world ruled divinely
They say that beauty’s truth, well your’s is fucking ugly
Written in blood and sand, by hands of your inspired
I’ll set them free from these chains, I’ll set them free
Never there when I wanted you
Never there when I needed you
I won’t fall for you, I won’t fall for you
I embrace my doom
Fallen Saviour, meet your maker
Fallen Saviour, meet your maker
Break me free, from your divine being
Never there when I wanted you
Never there when I needed you
I won’t fall for you, I won’t fall for you
I embrace my doom
Fallen Saviour, meet your maker
Fallen Saviour, meet your maker
Break me free
10. Silent Eyes
The break of dawn
Awake from slumber
Just another wordless day
No care, no reason
Only tranquillity
Come one day, won’t you set me free?
Hold out your hands, I’ll speak to you
With open palms an unspoken truth
Reach out to me, come guide my soul
Lead me down this lonesome road
I’ve never felt so whole
Stay with me
And don’t you slip away
Familiar faces, stare back at me
Dreams and fate are all a blur
No one to care, Day becomes night
The agony behind my sight
Hold out your hands, I’ll speak to you
With open palms an unspoken truth
Reach out to me, come guide my soul
Lead me down this lonesome road
Stay with me
And don’t you slip away
Behind those silent eyes
Lies silent misery
Behind those silent eyes, lies misery
Hold out your hands, I’ll take you away
Please stay with me, don’t you slip away
Behind those silent eyes, lies silent misery
11. Sovereign
Break the Dawn
Your hopes and dreams are lying beyond,
Your own deluded perception.
Fighting the currents of the raging river
Going where the river never flows
Some believe their life is in their hands
But we don’t know where the future stands
Follow ambition straight to its heart
Tearing the future apart
Shattering the Dawn
Crushed by the weight of the world
Shattering the Dawn
Crushed by the weight of the fucking world
Spending your life searching for meaning
All your endeavours amounting to nothing
Blinding yourself to reality
Binding yourself to your sovereignty
Some believe their life is in their hands
But we don’t know where the future stands
Follow ambition straight to its heart
Tearing the future apart
Shattering the Dawn
Crushed by the weight of the world
Shattering the Dawn
Crushed by the weight of the fucking world
Delusion, the future is flawed
Finding hope in the light of the dawn
Crushing your false hopes
Crushing your deluded heart
Crush your hopes
Crushing your deluded heart
Shattering the Dawn

LYRICAL OVERVIEW
Whilst the album is not a concept album, a majority of the lyrics basically explore the theme of 'power', the ways in which it affects us as individuals and others in society. From the way I see the world, there is power present in politics and religion (The Heresy, Fallen Saviour, Behold the Tyrants Fall, Defiling the Soul), the media (Age of Fear), and the sometimes uncontrollability of out most extreme human emotions such as anger, fear and hate (Bitter Reflection, I Am Wrath, Condemned in the Throes of Remorse). In some cases, we see what it's like to have a complete lack of power (Silent Eyes, Whips and Scorns) and to sometimes feel so empowered that we focus so much on our dreams and goals forget the realities we and others face each and every day (Sovereign).
I don't pretend to be a great lyricist, but I try to make my lyrics relatable and sort of ambiguous.
