THE DEFILED LYRICS

1. In The Land Of Fools

Crack down,
Breathe out a sigh of relief we can all be forgiven,
Great lies,
Disguise the interests of us in your heart, yeah right,
There is no other place for us to go, I'll see it well, this is farewell
In this land of fools, I know that we, we can be kings, so it begins

Beaten to the ground, we'll stagger in again
Hung out to dry with swollen blistered skin
March on tomorrow, uncertain times ahead
These hopes and smiles they've turned to nervous grins

Singled out again, this thing we've all been through
Have you listened to yourself?
So easily crippled by you

No chance
You made no effort to see what could come out of nothing
Dig deep
Stand out; don't want to be there, when you'll come to regret it
And I hope it's working out for you, you're underwhelmed, you're underwhelmed
In this land of fools, I know that we, we can be kings, so it begins

Beaten to the ground, I knew you'd see the day, hung out to dry and all your dreams are strayed
March on tomorrow, uncertain times ahead.
These hopes and smiles, they've turned to nervous grins

Singled out again, this thing we've all been through
Have you listened to yourself?
So easily crippled by you

Decisions that frame this thing
Now witness your once true life
Decisions that frame this thing
That people will call your life

Singled out again, this thing we've all been through
Have you listened to yourself?
So easily crippled by you

2. Call To Arms

These times have changed there's no hope here in this town
The orders gone we're left here all alone
We're trapped inside, we're godless, beaten and we're broken
It all ends now is it time for change?
We'll Burn down
Justice by our own hands
We will fight
But can we be self-made heroes?
Call to Arms, it's in our hands, we're not helpless anymore
Call to Arms, defend the fallen, we won't take it like before
Call to Arms, we'll change the system from the inside out
Call to Arms, it's our turn now, we'll reclaim the streets again
It's our turn now the uniform means nothing
Outlaws emerged to even out the score
Cover ourselves protect the weary and forgotten
Show our futures with the edge of a knife
We'll Burn down
Justice by our own hands
We will fight
But can we be self-made heroes?
Call to Arms, it's in our hands, we're not helpless anymore
Call to Arms, defend the fallen, we won't take it like before
Call to Arms, we'll change the system from the inside out
Call to Arms, it's our turn now, we'll reclaim the streets, we'll reclaim the streets again
We'll reclaim the streets again
Call to Arms, it's in our hands, we're not helpless anymore
Call to Arms, defend the fallen, we won't take it like before
Call to Arms, we'll change the system from the inside out
Call to Arms, it's our turn now, we'll reclaim the street again, we will reclaim the streets again

Call to Arms, we'll change the system from the inside out
Call to Arms, it's our turn now, we'll reclaim the streets, we'll reclaim the streets again

3. Blood Sells

I've worked my fingers to the bone
They're blistered red raw
Don't know where else to turn or go
Or what to do anymore! I can't afford this hollow place
Gouge out my eyes, rip out my heart
Take me apart for gold
Take my breath and steal my soul

Take me apart for gold
Take me apart for gold

I've got so many mouths to feed
I got no choices
I'm running out of time again
And I can't take it no more
Lay me on the cold white slab

Gouge out my eyes, rip out my heart
Take me apart for gold
Take my breath and steal my soul

Take me apart for gold
Take me apart for gold

Harvest me to the ground
Take these spoils of me
Reaper
Where have all you guilt gone?

Carry me
Piece by piece
Deliver the cure
Till I'm undone

Carry me
Piece by piece
Deliver the cure
Till I'm undone

4. Black Death

Take down the bridges, don't let them through
They're coming and they're bearing gifts for you
Bring on our future now
Take out the weak
It was the only way it could have been
The selfish survive again
Fleet the scene
By any means stay alive
Destroyers! Murders that hide in disguise

Healers coming through, they're bleeding you
Wise men, coming through, spreading final breath

The good have come to spread disease this time
So cut me open wide
Oh let them purge this thing inside of me
Oh no, it won't subside
This town is caving in, who's left alive? Wonder what miracle we could contrive
I think I must be next, well overdue
Got nothing much left here to hold onto
The selfish survive again

Flee the scene
By any means stay alive
Destroyers! Murders that hide in disguise

Healers coming through, they're bleeding you
Wise men coming through, spreading final breath
The good have come to spread disease this time
So cut me open wide
Oh let them purge this thing inside of me
Oh no, it won't subside
This is where good men die!

5. The Resurrectionists

'Cause we'll defy the maker
To make our own survive
'Cause we're the tainted ones
But we are the saviours of you all
Dig up the corpses
Let the blood run free
We need to see things die
To bring the dead to life

Humanity rests on plagues of locusts
Clip their wings to teach the world to fly
Because your feet are at rest
When the bombs start falling down

And the spooks in your closet
Are the smiles of discontent
Let the gallows fall
I will be the knife
Reach for our voices when
End of day has been and gone
Humanity rests on plagues of locusts
Clip their will to teach the world to fly

'Cause we're the poison in your blood
And we're the noose around your neck
The resurrectionists feeding from the cradle to the grave

'Cause we'll defy the maker
To make our own survive
'Cause we're the tainted ones
But we are the saviours of you all
Dig up the corpses
Let the blood run free
We need to see things to die
To bring the dead to life
Humanity rests on plagues of locusts
Clip their wings to teach the world to fly

'Cause we're the poison in your blood
And we're the noose around your neck
The resurrectionists feeding from the cradle to the grave
'Cause we're the poison in your blood
And we're the noose around your neck
The resurrectionists feeding from the cradle to the grave
To the grave
As we pray for floods, as the seasons change
The resurrectionists feeding the lives
The resurrectionists feeding the lives

6. Metropolis

Here come the hounds
You'd better turn and fight, no place to hide
Ripped up inside
Tried your best, but you'll get no free ride
No reason to complain
You're just another one, it's all the same
We are all the same

Crack the whip of modern times
Come meet the dispossessed
Metropolis, you feeble bitch
Carving tombstones for the rich

Watch you fall down
We'll laugh as all your dreams we'll pound
This is the sound
Rock bottom
As you hit the ground
Disillusioned, feeling drained
You're just another one, it's all the same

Crack the whip of modern times
Come meet the dispossessed
Metropolis, you feeble bitch
Carving tombstones for the rich

Crack the whip of modern times
Come meet the dispossessed
Metropolis, you feeble bitch
Carving tombstones for the rich

Crack the whip of modern times
Come meet the dispossessed
Metropolis, you feeble bitch
Carving tombstones for the rich

7. Locked In Freedom

Safe in these walls, hide in my skin
These are the things that I live in
Out of control, persistent mind
It's out of reach, I'm self-confined

Made of blood and useless lies
I'll be OK, no need to fight
Made of blood and useless lies
Can't see beyond, I've lost my sight

Till I die dreaming

Strap myself in
Freedom awaits
What's knocking at my door?
Strap myself in
The fear awaits
This untamed anxiety

Can't face this world, leave me behind
Irrational, take me away
The tragedy you see in me
A self-inflicted prisoner
Soul destroy and captivate
There's no god, there's no escape
Soul destroy and captivate
There's only so much that I take

Till I die dreaming

Strap myself in
Freedom awaits
What's that knocking at my door?
Strap myself in
The fear awaits
This untamed anxiety

Strap myself in
Freedom awaits
What's that knocking at my door?
Strap myself in
The fear awaits
This untamed anxiety

Strap myself in
Freedom awaits
What's that knocking at my door?
Strap myself in
The fear awaits
This untamed anxiety

8. The Ill Disposed

The howl of her broken throat
Now with new blood, this earth to soak
Discard with no remorse
Makeshift land filled with tiny bones
Hand-outs for all the true unknowns
Discard with no remorse

To fade away into nothingness

Keep spitting all these civil lies
No-one cares when have-nots die
Disfigured bodies of the ill-disposed
It's cold when under ground
How still the sound of hungry souls
Discard with no remorse

Gone wasted, feed the snarling beast
Atrocities in time of war? This was sanctioned right next door
To fade away into nothingness

Keep spitting all these civil lies
No-one cares when have-nots die
The ground has swelled, the beasts fed well
No-one cares when have-nots die
Disfigured bodies of the ill-disposed

Keep spitting all these civil lies
No-one cares when have-nots die
The ground has swelled, the beasts fed well
No-one cares when have-nots die
Disfigured bodies of the ill-disposed
Keep spitting all these civil lies
No-one cares when have-nots die
Disfigured bodies of the ill-disposed

9. In Your Name

Each moment that I live is a threat upon their sorry lives
I sip outsider's blood to quench my thirst
We're keeping the wolves from reaching your door
Bodies decorate the scene

Deep tracks that carve your rights
Continue to neglect
And live an absent earthbound life
You keep on wanting more

In your name I have done so much more
Then you would ever care to know
I'd disappoint you if you knew all of these dire things I've done

Locked down in this trench I have come to call my wretched home
Unfolds a story that will not be told
History will no doubt romanticise
Beautiful and clean

Deep tracks that carve your rights
Continue to neglect
And live an absent earthbound life
But still you're craving more

In your name I have done so much more
Then you would ever care to know
I'd disappoint you if you knew all of these dire things I've done

In your name I have done so much more
Then you would ever care to know
I'd disappoint you if you knew all of these dire things I've done

In your name I have done so much more
Then you would ever care to know
I'd disappoint you if you knew all of these dire things I've done

10. Final Sleep

Waiting for my turn
Man I've got time to burn
Into the madness
Looking for miracles
Suspended in nothingness
Into the dark we roll

Watching a dream within a dream
Oh is this happening?
This is not real to me
We're dead for a day
Gone forever
So take me to my final sleep

Selfish Anxiety
Burning inside of me
Taken for granted
It's almost over now

Oh no, it's not enough
With so many years gone by
Could never think, there is no sound
Try to convey this truth
This is not real to me
We're dead for a day
And gone forever (forever)

I am not chasing a saviour
I was not looking for truth
No point in looking for answers
They will find you

Now it is my turn
I got no time to burn
Sick of this madness
There are no miracles
Suspended in nothingness
Into the dark we roll

Could never think, there is no sound
This is my last goodbye
This is not real to me
We're dead for a day
And gone forever (forever)

I am not chasing a saviour
I was not looking for truth
No point in looking for answers
They will find you (They will find you)
They will find you (They will find you)
They will find you (They will find you)
But they'll blind you
When you're gone
