1. Lies Tells The Truth
Worthless enemy
Depicting my strengths
My wrath defeated you,
The proud faceless shadow
Stand up, you weakling
Prepare to beat me down
I want our dance to end
I need you to judge me
Make me fall slowly
Project your dislike towards my actions
Let me hit the concrete
Allow it to eco as lies tells the truth
Spineless blame
Please, raise your voice
Claim your moral rights
And punish the sin
How can I apologize
When I can’t feel sorry
Denying me my only chance of repentance
Rise, bow and bleed
Deprive my regret
Make me fall slowly
Project your dislike towards my actions
Let me hit the concrete
Allow it to eco as lies tells the truth
Forget it all, the shame and sorrow
There’s nothing to repair
My affections, they were never real
And neither was my grief
2. Snake & Muse
Oh darling, won’t you please come closer
Have a second look at me
Gaze upon your masterpiece
Here I stand, weakened and demoralized
Ready to carve a scar into you
I know it was intentionally, you see
Repentance just isn’t you
But my question remains
Did you ever even care?
Indeed, some admiration beneath my mutation
I don’t have your talents, coping with that balance
Both snake and muse, a seductive animosity
You! A catatonic monstrosity
I have become surrounded
A captive entwined
By your indifference
A slave deprived of his chains
Our mutual understanding gone in statistics
Your disguised betrayal reeks self-satisfaction
Well, it’s time baby, time for retaliation
Some harmless flame-infused flirtation
Serenading watching you burn
Torn and ablaze
I have become surrounded
A captive entwined
By your indifference
A slave deprived of his chains
Surrounded
And entwined
By indifference
Deprived of my chains
Of my chains
3. The Witness
In a world where everything
Is controlled by numbers
There we’ll strike the hardest
We’ll question your irrelevant authority
You think that suit will save you
That bills are equal bulletproof
Sentenced to pull your own switch
First a scream, then one last twitch
We are the witness
We stood by and watched
As your need consumed us all
Watch your precious empire fall
Pulverized
Into oblivion
A new world decorated
In dust and flames
The survival game just stared
I’ll feast upon you soon
Your statement will be heard
Every pathetic, lying last word
That suit didn’t save you
Neither could bills buy you safety
We drank to the revolution
Ridding ourselves of your constitution
We are the witness
We stood by and watched
As your need consumed us all
Watch your precious empire fall
We are the witness
We stood by and watched
Retribution is finally at hand
Brothers, carry out the last command
4. An Ocean Of Time
So you placed me here
Without thinking twice about
Adding more hate to the world
Can’t you see, I’m a hater
And wouldn’t hesitate
To choke you with a halo
When I start to feel
That a storm
Is coming
That righteousness is at hand
The world is a hangout for sinners
A nest for nocturnal beginners
Do not despair, there’s an ocean of time
As physical beings, we are disposable
Isn’t it pathetic?
That I might just be
Your only true friend
The one with all the answers
There’s no glorious revolution
Nor that last tango
No pretty lights for you
No déjà vu
When I start to feel
That a new dawn
Is clearing the sky
That righteousness had its way
We baptized the world in gasoline
And blessed it with a burning match
Perceptual values is all we were given
To match the emptiness, I was driven
To give all I had, assuming the worst
Nothing remains, ash quenched my thirst
Expecting to fail, shut up and inhale
Like the rest of mankind you will bail
I’m just trying teaching you to sees the present
So fill up your glass, consent and prevent
Do not despair, there’s an ocean of time
As physical beings, we are disposable
The breaths of life are numbered
Our days were meant to end
The cycle’s calling for us
Calling our return
CALLING OUR RETURN
5. Paradise
Decimate
Pretentious words
Ritualized
Paradise
Would you be so kind?
You see, our actions, they are entwined in delicate dance
So please, take a seat beside me
And watch your precious Eden vanish in flames
Ritualized transparent paradise justifying the
Relinquishments of fate
There’s nobody else to blame
We watched as the world was set ablaze
And when it’s passed, the final storm
From ruins we’ll be reborn
Equal progression towards extinction
No more formulated, fabricated distinction
We are the spawn, descendants of the dark
Marching – an army without a mark
Genetically composed failing machines
And this is beauty, because we are one
No gods will sever us or blame our virtues
A soulless mass capable of brilliance
There’s nobody else to blame
We watched as the world was set ablaze
And when it’s passed, the final storm
From ruins we’ll be reborn
A ritualized
Transparent paradise
Justifying the
Relinquishments of fate
There’s nobody else to blame
We watched as the world was set ablaze
And when it’s passed, the final storm
From ruins we’ll be reborn
6. Where Stars Burn…
I might have blamed you unfairly
Compelling thoughts of resentment
The stars we collected did never shine
Nothing more than partial contentment
Well, it might be time to face the music
To admit my faults and reject my pride
This separation was never your creation
Neither was it you who poisoned my view
Let my senses fade out
Beyond fear and doubt
A place where stars burn, to go and die
With closed eyes I try - Beneath a black sky
A fallen king, who’s lost his crown
In his doings I see sorrow
A self-inflicted starvation campaign
To cleans and return back to zero
I witness
An empty desperate man
Let my senses fade out
Beyond fear and doubt
A place where stars burn, to go and die
With closed eyes I try - Beneath a black sky
I might have blamed you unfairly
Let my senses fade out
Beyond fear and doubt
A place where stars burn, to go and die
With closed eyes I try - Beneath a black sky
7. Banished
You can’t be very proud
Regarding that your actions failed
The holy race is extinct
You were the first to be nailed
The earth is swarmed with sins
Neglected and left alone
We won’t pay your price through skins
Watch us from your heavenly throne
There’s strength within our race
Our bloody banners are held high
This world is ours to reclaim
And your paradise for us to rename
I sealed your fate with hate
Exiled from the heart of man
Banished in shame
A broken piece in the human plan
You preached using tainted words
We wouldn’t listen, wouldn’t be fooled
This planet is a battlefield
We’ve armed ourselves, we won’t be ruled
I sealed your fate with hate
Exiled from the heart of man
Banished in shame
A broken piece in the human plan
8. The End Of It All
When the black snow falls
It dresses the world
In a new burial gown
The winds of man are vanished
Our civilized codes are banished
Where were you in all this?
Enjoying your tranquilizing bliss?
We all stood accused
But judgement day never came
Nor were our iniquities convicted
We didn’t walk hand-in-hand
Neither stood we proud or united
When the horizon flatlined the world
We didn’t stand proud or united
We saw the horizon flatline our world
And then there was silence…
No songs of sorrow were sang…
And then there was silence…
No songs of sorrow were sang…
And then there was silence…
No bravery to echo across the centuries
We all stood accused
Charged with moral obligations
Designed for the purpose to control
Keep us from revolting, strike and evolve
We’re all equals, just flesh and bones
Bi-products, experience the final tones
A symphony of stillness, coloured with dust
The soundtrack to the deeds of our lust
And then there was silence…
No songs of sorrow were sang…
And then there was silence…
No bravery to echo across the centuries
And then there was silence…
Only a whisper, the last breath of mankind
And then there was silence…
We were all born to die
9. Corrupted
How can a piece of paper
Dictate my existence
Why is necessary assistance
A quantitative decision
Is it impossible to see
Beyond the norms of man and society.
Denied by the
Corrupted Collective
I reached out, I raised my voice
Enabling my escape
From the darkest inch inside
As I drown the voice astride
Considered lucrative dream-machines
Worthless shells, shaped by artificial means
Incompetent mind-shifting drones
Labeled and archived, express-packaged clones
Is it impossible to see
Beyond the norms of man and society.
Denied by the
(Corrupted Collective)
I can’t change my part to play
In the symphony of life
A demanding extra
A pretty case with nothing inside
Is it impossible to see
Beyond the norms of man and society.
Denied by the
(Corrupted Collective)
10. Shaping A Horizon
Don’t try to excuse your behaviour
By falling in line, obeying command
When did we sacrifice
To become a part of the machinery
Be one before
Many is more
Rule as your own
Superior to any clone
Let’s take a stand
Against the elite
Becoming the one
To set our own guidelines
Don’t set the limits
When you’re shaping a horizon
Live like you’re free
Perspectives beyond to be
Be one before
Many is more
Rule as your own
Superior to any clone
Don’t set the limits
When you’re shaping a horizon
Live like you’re free
Perspectives beyond to be
11. Archgod
This ain’t gonna be a false display of complaints
This is my fury
Overwhelming the sane, raging, violent, vehement
WE ARE NO SAINTS
A final psychotic chapter, sanctified by me
So brothers, salute the free
Marked by the guilt
Condemned by the weak
There’s time been spilt
Rise, shine and bespeak
Here we stand
With the world in our hand
Ready to command
The only life we’ll ever have
Archgods
How often don’t we neglect the certainty of joy
We pride ourselves with absence
An endless thirst, a hunt for the sinner’s wine
Breathe the lust of millions
Aren’t we kings of our existence
Rulers bred to be slaves
Here we stand
With the world in our hand
Ready to command
The only life we’ll ever have
Here we stand
With the world in our hand
Ready to command
As archgods,
We are archgods!
Weak, broken
Succumb to filth
Beaten, pathetic
Spoiled by guilt
Here we stand
With the world in our hand
Ready to command
The only life we’ll ever have
Here we stand
With the world in our hand
Ready to command
As archgods,
We are archgods!
12. One And The World
What if I told you?
That tomorrow will mark
The dawn of a new era
What if I told you?
That we’ll be a part of it
As long as we intend to live
Rise, brothers of mine
Feast upon a realm
Rise, rebuild
A nation made from empathy
Cause we’re one
And one shall rule
So let’s decide on a set of principles
Every man shall be judged
And by judgement shall he live
So let’s forge this code in stone
Rise, brothers of mine
Feast upon a realm
Rise, rebuild
A nation made from empathy
Cause we’re one
And one shall rule
Rise, brothers of mine
Feast upon a realm
Rise, realize
The end of our empires
We should be one
And one shall rule
