1. Suffer As I Have
It's you I abhor, lost in the fire
Set in the quiet, a cause and effect
Dragged down weight, you always want more
How do you live? Knowing so little and living so glib?
You are the problem
Losing control, urges are rising
I won't remember anything
I would not feel anything
Suffer, as I have
You always want more, lost in the fire
Match? No match, you set it yourself
Dragged down youth
Now you overbreed with curses and killers
How do you live? Knowing so little and living so glib?
You are the problem
Losing control, we must remove them
I won't remember anything
I would not feel anything
Nobody took away anything
That was you!
Knowing so little and living so glib
You are the problem
Now suffer, as I have
2. Worldview
You're only living once
What don't you understand?
Can't change the world in a day
Mortal fears fan the flames
Unconscious energy
Is all you may ever be
Can't change the world in a day
So they choose to throw it all away
My only crime in your eyes
Trade deception, exchange for pride
Praise bigotry on all who sleep, but never I
They want you fucking dead
What don't you understand?
Can't change the world in a day
All belief is just a game
I want you fucking dead
What don't I understand?
Can't change the world in a day
But I'll try to do it anyway
My only crime in your eyes
Trade deception, exchange for pride
Praise treachery on the weak, but never I
I'm a legion, on my own
No one needs me, no one knows
Can't change the world in a day
I don't like it here anyway
3. Most People
I can integrate, but only to a limit
Overpopulate, not enough to go around
Just play along and you'll succeed
Just pay your dues
They're fucking lying to you
I am not the best, but few are ahead of me
Sometimes I'm in check
Other times, an egotist
Make trade, make cash
Fit in at last, just to distract
Just play the song and you'll succeed
Just pay your dues
You're fucking full of shit
I don't need to integrate
I hate the facts, I hate the game
I hate belief, I hate your faith
I hate your face, I'm gone
I fake my soul
I don't mean to hate
I guess it comes naturally
Make trade, make cash
Fit in at last, just to distract
Just pick a side and you'll succeed
Just pay your dues
Fuck you
4. Enlightenment
Winded and failing on a standard of life
Beckoning rivals for war on another day
All of the angels will crumble and see
They are the demons defending tragedy
We are alone, covered in dirt
Begging for reason, logic and might
Picking a faith as a plea for reward
Deeper inside, you know that it doesn't work
Follow equations of matter and space
Trust not a witness, trust what is verified
We are alone, covered in dirt
Bearing our anger, wisdom and dare
Share what you know
This is what I believe in
And it takes no believing
It's a science and changing
While the meek are denying
With the wealth that is flaunted
We could cure all the haunted
Yet the faithful are lying
To preserve all the fear
5. Outer Harbor
Placing all my bets on vivid dreams
Romancing, collapsing
Even if all dies here, I have my place
Surrounding, withdrawing
Lay blame on intentions or call it on fate
I'm looking around but never the right way
I want to return to a place of purity
But I hope that I am welcome
Who am I to say? I love waiting
Naively, privately
Real yet surreal, my own to feel
Transgressing, regressing
And life is sort of twisted that way
When you want things to stay, that's when things change
I'm looking to preserve an era called home
All feasible doubts unwelcome
We're passing the time and trying to keep sane
A matter of perspective and all views change
I want to return to a place I called home
But I hope that I am welcome
6. Caustica
One bleeding, all the others follow
Clueless in the hollow
Too aware, stepping out of line
Forget the claim of crime
Drink poison, slowly through your eyes
Just as they've designed
Those awake maybe know the answer
Never care to tell
Lights, perfect times, out of time
Rage taking me out of mind
Only I can finish this
7. Venture In Blood
It's all burning down at your hand
You chose giving in
Overwhelmed, insane
Damning venture in blood
Destroy just to create
Your choice ever clear, be it rare
Disown all of which makes you care, in vein
Damning venture in blood
Create to be alive
A venture in blood
I am all I create
8. Fathomless
None of my answers
Satisfy questions
Everyone's theories
Never could speak for me
Paradoxes never ending
And I'm dead, that's my name
Pain, that's my name
Since the beginning
Shattering slowly
Burning all bridges
Maybe you're better off
To forget me
Keep what I've done
And I'm gone
Hard to find
Free, again, all at once
Anywhere is the same
Time all at once
But hope, hard to find
Why?
9. Modern Obsolete
If you want, educate alternatives
If you want, we can kill them collect
Make a sound, you have tipped off everyone
Look around, now they're waging a war
If you want, we can take down popular
If you want, we can blind them with facts
Make it sound too loud, they will shut you out
Look around at their ignorance
If you want, educate alternatives
If you want, maybe they'll open their eyes
Make a sound, I gave up on reasoning
Look around, I gave up on hope
If you want, take the torch and carry on
If you want, take and bury the worth
Make it sound, I am leaving everything
Look around, I am killing me
Allegorize all I know, whatever it be
The modern obsolete
Value is contrived
If you want, educate alternatives
If you want, maybe they'll open their eyes
Make it sound, I gave up on reasoning
But you don't dare give up on me
