SHADE OF HATRED LYRICS

1. Intro

2. Encaged

Thunder clouds
Rolling in
Lightning strikes
Feel the fear under your skin

Nowhere to go
Nowhere to hide
Can't hold us off
Inevitably we'll get inside you

Pathetic little creeps
Depressed and deprived
Drown in your sadness
Crying won't get you through the night

Take a look outside, it's a black and burdened day
Mindless apothic fools wander around like a plague
Discover your own ways, the strength inside
There really is no need for us to simply walk in line
So come on up and break the chains
Escape the hollow nothingness of life encaged

Don't let the world deceive you to be what you did not mean to
Create yourself and own world, you're not alive just living a lie

Thunder clouds
Rolling in
Lightning strikes
Feel the fear under your skin

Nowhere to go
Nowhere to hide
Can't hold us off
Inevitably we'll get inside you

3. Tale of Erida

The tale of Erida, who descended to the earth
The goddess of hate, the goddess of pain, who wants it all be burned
She uttered a pain-filled scream, provoked insanity
Blood-lusted rage, inhibition fades, desert humanity

Thirst for battle in their hearts
It's tearing them apart
The hunger can be stilled
Only when blood is spilled

The men are fighting, fighting to the death
The weight they're bearing, it's heavy on their hearts
Erida, she's smiling, she's feeling content
But still not satisfied, anger is all she has

Thirst for battle in their hearts
It's tearing them apart
The hunger can be stilled
Only when blood is spilled

4. Hunter

They chose you, from all the others
Precious as a gem never to be rediscovered
They chose you, from all the others
Conforming by them I really can't be bothered
They change you, to be like the others
Overprotection I can't risk being smothered
They change you, to be like the others
Just be relaxed and you won't be slaughtered

Murder, manipulating humankind
Murder, oppression of the fragile mind
Dehumanization
Suppress identity
Dehumanization
A matter of security
Dehumanization
No wolves among the sheep
Dehumanization
Your mind won't be free

Alone in the dark
The hunter comes to play

The hunter, the hunter, the hunter comes to play
The hunter, the hunter, the hunter comes to play

You can run, you can hide, there is no help for you
Once chosen as victim, there is nothing you can do
So precious, a trophy, there is nothing more to you
Here they come, still faceless, motionless approaching you

Be someone, be special, be who you want to be
Don't you change for no one, even society
Social groups and mind games, almost deliberately
Brainwashing the people, is anyone really free?

They chose you, from all the others
Precious as a gem never to be rediscovered
They chose you, from all the others
Conforming by them I really can't be bothered
They change you, to be like the others
Overprotection I can't risk being smothered
They change you, to be like the others
Just be relaxed and you won't be slaughtered

I chose you, from all the others
Precious as a gem never to be rediscovered
I chose you, from all the others
Ugly as hell by them I really can't be bothered
I hunt you, away from the others
Overprotection I can't risk being smothered
I hunt you, away from the others
Just be relaxed and you won't be slaughtered

Murder, manipulating humankind
Murder, oppression of the fragile mind
Murderous intention
No way to hold it back
Murderous intention
I won't hold it back
Murderous intention
No way to hold it back
Murderous intention
I won't hold it back

Alone in the dark
The hunter comes to play

The hunter, the hunter, the hunter comes to play
The hunter, the hunter, the hunter comes to play

You can run, you can hide, there is no help for you
Once chosen as victim, there is nothing you can do
So precious, a trophy, there is nothing more to you
Here he comes, still faceless, motionless approaching you

5. The Accused

Well, here I am in this prison cell.
Wrongfully accused of being something I am not.
Soon they're going to lay me down in an open field, probably naked.
They'll put an increasing weight upon my body, until I confess.
But I won't.
I won't give in, they won't hear anything from me.
No cries, nothing.
I will play my part 'til the very end.
Stand my ground against their false beliefs.
I will be silent, 'til the end.

6. Price of Xenophobia

On an April day, in the warming sun
A man arrested, for witchcraft
They hanged his wife before, now he's at stake
He has already chosen, a certain death

We will make you take this plea
More! Men, increase his agony
More! Facile words easily said
More! By standing mute you'll be pressed to death

The price of xenophobia

Nothing but breath, a persistent spirit
He'll play the martyr, for a false belief
The pressure rises, his eyes are bulging
No tears are shed, no cry escapes

More
More
More
More more more

We will make you take this plea
More! Men, increase his agony
More! Facile words easily said
More! By standing mute you'll be pressed to death

The price of xenophobia

He refused to budge, not unlike us
A silent warrior, against majority
Being unique, means being left out
In this world, has anything ever changed?

7. Aeon of Indifference

No sense of purpose in my life and you're the one to blame
Everywhere around the world, for them it's all a game
The least you could've done for me is given me a name
I would've gladly brought it all to shame

Apathetic manics
You created me
Apathetic manics
You're the reason I don't care

Why you're sitting on your thrones still
When you let the whole world turn to shit

The aeon of indifference,
It never ends now

You talk, you talk, you bitch, you preach, but nothing ever changed
Decisions based on dominance, it always stays the same
Doing what's best, forfeit yourself, there can be little gained?
Your delusional dictatorships, like fantasies deranged
Arrogant, incompetent, you bastards who reign the world
Arrogant, incompetent, you bastards will be smothered by your herds

8. A Merciless Fate

Knowing without acting, talking without speech
Inevitable damnation, the blame interchanged
Poor children, you are doomed
You can't be saved, you won't be saved
Neglected beyond rescue
You were dead long before you were born

Heading for disaster
Too late to respond
Heading for disaster
This world is death
No recollections, only regrets
Of parents inflicted, irresponsible deaths
If only they did, instead of debate

The children be spared, of this merciless fate
No one can save them now
It's long dead and gone
The burden of a conscience
Is knowing it went wrong

Farther
Farther
Farther
Into damnation

Poor children, you were doomed
You could'n't be saved, you were'n't saved
Neglected beyond rescue
You were dead long before you were born
You can't outrun time

The pendulum is our foe
No second chances
Our world is dead
