DESPISED ICON LYRICS

1. The Aftermath

Laying low, lurking deep down below
Resurface, catch your breath
Rise back from the depths
Rise back from the depths
Rise up, rise back up
Rise back from the depths
Rise up, rise back up
Rise back from the depths

One more attempt
Suffer my wrath
Feel my contempt
The aftermath

The aftermath
Damn you all, put you all to sleep
I am not a saviour, nor am I a sheep
None can appease
Suffer my wrath
Down on your knees
The aftermath

No peace
Tear it all down, I will never cease
No rest, no peace
Tear it all down, tear it piece by piece

Laying low, lurking deep down below
Resurface, catch your breath
Rise back from the depths
Rise up, rise back up
Rise back from the depths
Rise up, rise back up
Rise back from the depths
Rise up, rise back up
Rise back from the depths

One more attempt
Suffer my wrath
Feel my contempt
The aftermath
End it all, carry out my plan
The ills of modern man
The aftermath
Damn you all, put you all to sleep
I am not a saviour, I will cut you deep
Watch as I feast
Suffer my wrath
Unleash the beast
The aftermath

No peace
Tear it all down, I will never cease
No rest, no peace
Tear it all down, tear it piece by piece
Tear it all down, tear it piece by piece

I'm in high gear with a lust for red
Stay clear, or better yet, play dead
Famished with a taste for blood
Make it bleed until it floods
The beast awakens

I'm in high gear with a lust for red
Stay clear, or better yet, play dead
The beast awakens
Famished with a taste for blood
Make it bleed until it floods
The beast awakens

Laying low, lurking deep down below
Resurface, catch your breath
Rise back from the depths
Rise up, rise back up
Rise back from the depths

2. Inner Demons

The dream is dead
Walk away
The pressure's pulling me down
A dark passenger
Pulling me down
Is slowly taking over
Sadness prevails
Clouded, my judgment fails
Pulling me down
Come to your senses
I've lost all my defences
State of distress
Haunted
My mind is a mess
It's over; all over
Suffer the consequence

Suffer the consequence
Deeper, dig deeper
Go on
Vanquish my inner demons
Deeper, dig deeper
Go on
Suffer the consequence

Salt all my wounds
I'm consumed by my poisonous views
Turn the page
Channel all that rage
Make it on my own
One must face the unknown
I'm setting up myself for disaster
Time's up, these 15 minutes are over
Turn the page
Channel all that rage
Make it in my own
One must face the unknown

Fighting from within
Struggling to survive
It's over; all over
Fighting from within
Struggling to survive
Vanquish my inner demons
Fighting from within
Struggling to survive
It's over; all over
Suffer the consequence
Suffer the consequence

Suffer the consequence
Deeper, dig deeper
Go on
Vanquish my inner demons
Deeper, dig deeper
Go on
Suffer the consequence
Suffer the consequence

Fuck my life

Trying my best to connect the dots
Self-repressed with conflicting thoughts
Trying my best to shed all my weight
I just can't sit around and wait
Empty days and sleepless nights
More clichés and countless fights
Tired eyes and hidden wounds
Silent cries and bitter tunes
Wake up, get up, move on
Give me a sign, a four leaf clover
Wake up, get up, move on
Wake me up when it's all over

I am my biggest threat
I am my biggest threat
I am my biggest threat

3. Drapeau Noir

En temps de désespoir
Je lève le drapeau noir
Un combat sans merci
Malgré tous les déboires
Je lève le drapeau noir
Espirit contestataire
Un vent d'opposition
Sans remission
Notre révolution

Prends garde
Ce monde est sans pitié
Prends garde
En quête de vérité
Une lueur dans l'obscurité
Prends garde
Je suis l'anomalie
Prends garde
Troublant l'ordre établi
Prends garde
En quête de transparence
Un crie perturbrant le silence

En temps de désespoir
Je lève le drapeau noir
La justice à tour prix
En route vers la victoire
Je lève le drapeau noir
Confondons nos rivaux
Aucune absolution
Sans conditions
Notre révolution

La rage au coeur
Revendicateurs
Seuls les faibles creusent leur tombe
Enterrent leur douleur
Drapeau noir, drapeau noir
Je porte mon étendard
J'affiche mon e'tat d'âme
Drapeau noir, drapeau noir
Je porte mon etendard

Prends garde
Ce monde est sans pitié
Prends garde
En quête de vérité
Une lueur dans l'obscurité
Prends garde
Je suis l'anomalie
Prends garde
Troublant l'ordre établi
Prends garde
En quête de transparence
Fuis l'ignorance

Marche ou crève
Marche ou crève
Marche ou crève
Tout droit au but
À l'épreuve des sceptiques et confus

Marche ou crève
Marche ou crève
Quitte ou double
La corde au cou
Trompant la mort
Je combats jusqu' au bout

4. Bad Vibes

Take a stand now
You give me bad vibes
You give me bad vibes

I don't trust that smile
You give me bad vibes
Been onto you for a while
You give me bad vibes
Trying to steal the game
Yet you stick to the sidelines
Come on, make your move
You give me bad vibes
Don't stall, stand once and for all

Don't pretend we're brothers
Show your true colors
My faith in you has rusted
You simply can't be trusted
Stop thinking you're so discrete
Or I'll show my teeth
My faith in you has rusted
You simply can't be trusted
Don't stall, stand once and for all

Keep on fronting, I've played this game
Talk up a storm but deep down
You're all the same
Lessons learned, bridges easily burned
Respect and loyalty must be earned

Don't pretend we're brothers
Show your true colors
My faith in you has rusted
You simply can't be trusted
Stop thinking you're so discrete
Or I'll show my teeth
My faith in you has rusted
You simply can't be trusted

Be on your guard, the one who holds the cards
Never to be trusted
Time heals nothing
Never to be trusted
No more games
All these concealed intentions and disregard
Be on your guard
The one who holds the cards
Never to be trusted
Time heals nothing
Never to be trusted
No more games

Take a stand now
You give me bad vibes
Spitting facts
Claiming it's all true
Drop the act
I can see right through you

I don't trust that smile
You give me bad vibes
Been onto you for a while
You give me bad vibes
Try to steal the game
Yet you stick to the sidelines
Come on, make your move
You give me bad vibes
Bad vibes
Bad vibes
Spitting facts
Claiming it's all true
Drop the act
I can see right through you
Don't stall, stand once and for all

Don't pretend we're brothers
Show your true colors
My faith in you has rusted
You simply can't be trusted
Stop thinking you're so discrete
Or I'll show my teeth
My faith in you has rusted
You simply can't be trusted
Don't stall, stand once and for all

5. Dedicated To Extinction

[Instrumental]

6. Grind Forever

I am beaten, but not broken
I am beaten, but not broken
1, 2, 3, go
Crush my enemies
Grind forever
No more boundaries
Grind forever
Jump all obstacles
Grind forever
Grind forever

I was once found, but now I'm lost
Lost all trust
Watch me combust, burn as I'm condemned
March 'til the end
Don't you pretend
1, 2, 3, go

Crush my enemies
Grind forever
No more boundaries
Grind forever
Jump all obstacles
Grind forever
Grind forever

I am beaten, but not broken
I am beaten, but not broken
I'll rest when I'm dead
I'll rest when I'm 6 feet deep, in my new bed

I've slept enough
Lost my head in the clouds
I'll keep running and running
Never looking back again
I¨ll keep running and running until my legs give in
Smashing through every single door
Paying all my dues like never before
I'll keep running and running, I swear
No fucks given, not a single care
Smashing through every single door
Je frappe à grand coup
Maître de mon sort

I was once lost, but now I'm found
Lost and found
There is a cost for those who bear the crown
March 'til the end
Don't you pretend
1, 2, 3, go

Crush my enemies
Grind forever
No more boundaries
Grind forever

I am beaten, but not broken
I'll rest when I'm dead
I am beaten, but not broken
I'll rest when I'm 6 feet under

Burn the candle by both ends
By both ends
By both ends
Pushing limits
Forcing my way through exits

7. Time Bomb

Time is ticking away
I can't escape
Fate awaits
Can't escape
Fate awaits
Panic spreads through my tired shell
My mind is stuck deep in hell
I can't escape
Fate awaits
Can't escape
Fate awaits
Sorrow says, "Hello my old friend"
"On you, I'll always depend"
Time is ticking away
My body, I'll entomb
My mind goes tick tick, boom
My story, filled with gloom
Time is ticking away
Time bomb

Time bomb
Stay calm, easier said than done
Sit tight, shit has just begun
Panicked by negative outcomes
Time bomb

Fate awaits
Can't escape
Fate awaits
Panic spreads through my tired shell
My mind is stuck deep in hell
I can't escape
Fate awaits
Can't escape
Fate awaits
Sorrow says, "What is happening?"
"Stood by you through everything"
Time is ticking away
My body, I'll entomb
My mind goes tick tick, boom
My story, filled with gloom
Time is ticking away
Away

No turning back
No way
Time slowly wasting away
Wasting away
Slowly wasting away
Same excuses
Same old lines
Running out of time
Leave all fears behind
Time slowly wasting away
Wasting away
Slowly wasting away

So paranoid
Setting traps everywhere
Just can't avoid getting caught in despair

Time is ticking away
I can't escape
Fate awaits
Can't escape
Fate awaits
Panic spreads through my tired shell
My mind is stuck deep in hell
I can't escape
Fate awaits
Can't escape
Fate awaits
Sorrow says, "I thought we were friends"
"And all you did was pretend"
Time is ticking away
My body, I'll entomb
My mind goes tick tick, boom
My story will resume

8. One Last Martini

I used to think too much within this detached torpor
Sat with you, sun-drenched by radiant limpidness
Exalting vibrations of positivism emanate from your perfect nature
The intermittence of stirring lips reminds me of
Fight frantically demanding
To breathe
The way they danced made me believe you were speaking
Stories you have been telling for hours
Words aligned in a slogan of absurdities
The word interpreted by your materialist
Constitution came from your
Deepest sentiment
(I don't exist)
Obviously you have been gifted with the most precious piece of the puzzle
An emblem can be artistic and attractive, but it's meaning can be aimless and
Unreasonable
Sporadic abstractions
Through your fractionized sculpture
Your word intertwines with mine
Resulting in something horrendous
The last dance is just another story

9. Doomed

[Instrumental]

10. Beast

Beast
Destroy all that I deplore
It's time, settle the score
I'll rightfully take whats mine
Beast
Destroy all those that oppose
Rivals will decompose
I'll rightfully take what's mine

Curse this new world
Thin the herd
A force to be reckoned with
You will plea for forgiveness
On your knees, bow to beast

Assuming a higher role
Tremble as I speak
Mankind is so weak
Take control
Take control
Assuming a higher role
Tremble as I speak
Mankind is so weak
Take control
Assuming a higher role
Rise and conquer, onward

Beast
Destroy all that I deplore
It's time, settle the score
I'll rightfully take whats mine
Beast
Destroy all those that oppose
Rivals will decompose
I'll rightfully take what's mine

Curse this new world
Thin the herd
A force to be reckoned with
You will plea for forgiveness
On your knees, bow to beast
You no longer hold the crown

Icon is back
On your knees, bow to beast
Icon is back
Icon is back
On your knees, bow to beast
Icon is back
Icon is back

Bloodshed is what I crave, open graves
No fear
Face first, keep your conscience clear
Bloodshed is what I crave, misbehave

Beast
Destroy all that I deplore
It's time, settle the score
I'll rightfully take whats mine
Beast
Destroy all those that oppose
Rivals will decompose
I'll rightfully take what's mine
