1. The Cattle of Man
All these people staring blind into deceit
The liars at the door, and a demon where you sleep
Raping the mind of the population
Peel the parasite from your eye
Castrating those who don't care to listen
Then they'll never have to speak a word
These flawed fallacies of existence
Lobotomize the mindless cattle of man
Eliminating intelligence through influence
Our being is rotting with deception
Sew their mouths shut, so they can't say a thing
Expose the cloak of supremacy
The power of a corrupt reign
The power of a corrupt reign
Believe everything
And never ever question anything
Control of reality
Then we’ll never see the truth
Don't heed to the perjurer
Emancipate actuality within
Cut off your ears, gauge your eyes
Reveal the secret of a concealed authority
Sew their mouths shut, so they can't say a thing
Expose the cloak of supremacy
The power of a corrupt reign
Nothing is real
Nothing is absolute
2. Deity
You bring new meaning to ignorance
Convictions of a child and deceit of man
Coiling downward into your darkest fear
Too blind to see truth, to deaf to hear reason
An arrogant display of substance abuse
Wired comprehension from an artificial truth
We look so insignificant
Standing on your pedestal
Wearing a mask of dignity
While inside it eats you alive
You think we don't hear the whispers
Or does it mean that little to you
Years of favor left to the ashes
Revel new found wisdom alone
You think we don't hear the whispers
Or does it mean that little to you
A construct of fantasy and fiction
Save your judgement, we're all sinners here
Tired excuses and a obstinate mind
We're all sinners here
The hallowed one has come
And the foolish will burn in the sun
3. Kingdom Come
So many lines have been clouded
Losing comprehension of right and wrong
To see heroes become oppressors
Security comes at a fatal cost
They have abandoned us all
Leaving any last chance of promise
The chosen savior has forsaken mankind
We've become the villain
We've become the perversion
In this place hope is a fantasy
A colossal return of virtue
But who chooses the road we take?
One self appointed emancipator
Control flowing blue and red
When the end is near
We have no faith in one another
To save us from our transgressions
We all pray till kingdom come
Our dream is dead
Replaced with fear instead
In the end we're just fading away
Waiting in hope for another day
When the end is near
We have no faith in one another
To save us from our transgressions
We all pray till kingdom come
4. Blackest Night
The gears of war keep turning
As modest blood fuels the machine
The beast of greed take hold
Ever churning for the fortune
Senseless pieces in a aimless endeavor
Who succeeds in the games they play
Vile intent composed with suffering
Living the prophecy
We have been losing an endless battle, fighting our flesh and blood
The foolish pride of narcissistic minds
These maggots feeding on the lower man
Nursing the motives of a sickening plan
They eat the riches, we eat the fucking infection
Materialistic theories of a lethargic collection
Assembling their throne of gluttony and filth
If this it and the world is at is seems
What will be left for those we leave?
The history will speak in magnitudes of our demise
This is the mutiny
Ignite the revolution
5. Dethrone
This, the land of captivity
Nothing but puppets to corrupt intent
No care for the mortals, no remorse for consequence
Distraction is a weapon
And rule the design
The blood that spills decay
While wealth for few
The time to dethrone is at hand
Stand to be something of worth
If we're living blind, then we're not living at all
They murder for progress
Over indulgent worthless parasite
Reckoning upon the judged
Reality is never definite
Alter the blueprint of purity
Perfection is a distorted invention
The delusion of safety
6. Origins
From nothing to a spark
The futures seed is planted
Yet you're rotting from within
A disease of desire and greed
Created so pure, infected with filth
The fiber of purity burns no more
Strains of immeasurable failure
The few who stain our failed integrity
The precipice of existence
Open your eyes to the force of origin
Darkness bringing forth light
And the light brings shadows
Their minds are naive, but their souls are corrupt
You had potential, you had purpose
Now you have nothing but a mouth of ashes
This fucking world is eating you alive
7. Mehyt
8. In the Waters of Lethe
So few years and so many faces
What happened to the old days?
All the memories of the past cast aside and forgotten
Nothing has changed but the people around me
Disappearing into obscurity
Momentum taking hold of everything
Then you lost what you had
Your passion is now a fleeting thought, a faded illusion of sanity
Becoming the incarnation of animosity
Who the fuck have you become?
In another time, in another place
We will reclaim what once was there
As for now the void will swallow us whole
So few years and so many faces
What happened to the old days?
All the memories of the past cast aside and forgotten
9. Empire
Remember my name
This disease eats at me from the inside
A pathetic hero of my meaningless existence
Life is an extended void of opportunity
I was a good man, now I'm the one they fear
Blood is thick, but control is forever
My conscience slowly wearing thin
Shedding the virtues of yesterday
The mind of a savage is a corrupt nothingness
Once free I am now it's prisoner
Embrace what we all will become
I am the one who knocks
I am the fucking monster
This is my empire, this is my legacy
I will be the end of everything
All hail the new king
They say my time has come, but I've only just begun
My kingdom of blood and gold, they'll never forget
The hero has fallen
Everyone I love will suffer at these hands
This is my empire
10. Infinite Crisis
Shape the minds of the young and the free
Break them into conforming
Numb the will from their consciousness
Expression conforms to compliance
We forgot our dreams, now we're living the nightmare
Generations of mindless machines
Raised in a world that never wants you to think
Follow the mold of the one that came before
They tell you what to think
Tell you what to feel, and who to be
We are slaves to our distortion of life
Walking the lines of society's expectancy
Brainwashed into an infinite crisis
Mass genocide of universal knowledge
Break the sequence
And mend the rupture
Become the embodiment of forever
If everything we are is everything we will be
Why bother to carry on?
Revert the fiber of every being
Wasting every breath we receive
Break the sequence
And mend the rupture
Become the embodiment of forever
11. Rotworld
The balance is torn
We've been dying for so long
Eating the shit that they feed us
Birthing decay, nurturing disease
The earth is weeping, as we cut the flesh
Three entities at war
Shifting the symmetry
Restore the equilibrium
Wait, can you hear the screams calling?
Whispers in your ear calling out
They can hear your purpose, and they smell your fear
Tell me, what have we left for those to come?
Why don't you heed the warnings?
Will you stand in the coming bloodshed?
We’re all just rotting flesh
Go forth to the scarlet kingdom
Feel the embrace of the essence of flesh
As the parliament chooses their fate
We return to the swamp from where we came
12. The Mortal Compass
Bow to the eternal pain
The mortal compass on which we adhere
Living our lives searching
Yearning to hear the voices
Seeking that which we will not find
I thought I had it all worked out
Seeing the vale of mystic presence
Believing what was spoken to me
But I never heard a god damn thing
We're all sinking, but we're not dead yet
Realize we have the influence
Break down the barriers to reveal true animation
We are the conquerors of fate
The endless unknowing
Bow to the eternal pain
The endless unknowing
A drop in an infinite ocean
To questions that will never be answered
The insignificant truth
