REVOCATION LYRICS

1. The Grip Tightens

[Music: Davidson, lyrics: Davidson]

Slowly our rights erode away
We exist only to be slaves
The hidden hand with fingers outstretched
Closes in around our necks

[Pre-chorus:]
Masses refuse to see
Kept in line as we are deceived
Minds start to atrophy
Suppress the will to be

[Chorus:]
The grip tightens around our throats
Gasping for air as we choke
A barren future, we've lost all hope
Slowly the grip tightens around our throats

[Solo: Gargiulo]

Snuffing out the air from our lungs
A horrid realization
Suffocating, as we watch our world come undone
Knowing the worst is yet to come

[Pre-chorus]

Is this our destiny?
To be enslaved endlessly
The notion of our freedom
Is a Fallacy

[Chorus]

Strangulation, we choke out (Strangulation, we choke out)
There's nothing left, there's nothing left! (There's nothing left)
Suffocating, we're breathing (Suffocating, we're breathing)
Our final breath, our final breath! (Our final breath)

[Solo: Davidson]

[Chorus]

Around our throats!

2. Spurn The Outstretched Hand

[Music: Davidson, lyrics: Buda]

I contend with isolation
I demand glorification
Crumbling weak, I sink and splinter
When my need's denied

Those who deprive me will be punished
Those who extol me, played and used
No one is worthy of my kindness
No one spared my abuse

[Chorus:]
Thieving, my words conniving
What's yours is mine
I spurn the outstretched hand
Feasting as my brothers' dying
Their lives are mine
Let them choke on my refuse

Sociopathic self-obsession
Skulking, hissing spineless worm
Desperate to retain possession
Deceit lurks at every turn

I can't relinquish my hunger for power
I cannot respite my vigilant eye
My kingdom I'd forfeit if I faltered
To treacherous traitors awaiting with knives

[Chorus]

[Solo: Davidson]

Your lies invite me
The most exquisite vice
Your spite entices me
To infect your life

Thieving, my words conniving.
What's yours is mine.
I spurn the outstretched hand. (I spurn the outstretched hand!)
Feasting as my brothers' dying,
Their lives are mine.
Let them choke on my refuse.

3. Maniacally Unleashed

[Music: Gargiulo, lyrics: Buda]

Vacant inside
Relief I must find
Panicked, desperate, restless, senseless.

I cannot hide
From deep, sunken eyes
Now it's started, starving soulless

[Chorus:]
Gnash
Rend
Feast of rippling flesh drips in piles
Crazed
Slobbering
Maniacally unleashed upon devouring

Possessing desire
For that which has died
Tearing, grasping, ripping, slashing

Exploding throughout
Gore spilling out
Serene, tranquil, sated, thankful

[Chorus]

This fixation
consumes my world
Mastication
of gushing spoils

[Solo: Davidson]

4. Teratogenesis

[Music: Davidson, lyrics: Davidson]

Manipulating the minds of men,
Concealed in darkness I prey.
Twisting the psyches of the weaklings,
Leading them further astray.

[Chorus:]
Come my loyal subjects,
Do my bidding as I direct.
I, creator of atrocities.
The shaper of monstrosities.
Your Majesty, of agony and blasphemy. Blasphemy!

GREED!

Greed, lust, and gluttony,
These are but just a few of my favorite sins.
Forfeit your sanity and surrender to me,
Feel my vile prescience within.

[Chorus]

[Solo: Davidson]

5. Bound By Desire

[Music: Davidson, lyrics: Buda]

Hunted through the depths of
Innervision,
Spirit blades hack into
My chest.

Consequence comes crashing,
To collision.
Trembling swarm convulsing through my flesh.

[Pre-chorus:]
Servant, the beating drum,
Keeps you pliant, until the dawn,
Minion, your grotesque display,
My tribute, my pawn.

[Chorus:]
Feel the fire,
The cold blue flame.
Bound by desire,
Invoke my name.
Unceasing fire,
Lustful gaze.
Cannot deny me,
Your will I raze.

Surrendering to the need,
Seek stimulation.
Trembling, drooling, shivering,
Sweet titillation.

Dissolve in the slithering,
Poison spills without.
Taken, spent, and withering,
To perversion devout.

[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]

[Solo: Gargiulo]
[Solo: Davidson]
