TRAGEDY LYRICS

1. Eyes Of Madness

like pawns on a chessboard, we are directed
shuffled, misplaced and used to build a barrier
between madmen and their enemies
in the eyes, in the eyes of madmen
in the minds, in the minds of madmen
peace is a privilege reserved for those
who can afford not to fight in the wars
they created, in the wars they create
in the eyes, in the eyes of madmen
in the minds, in the minds of madmen
in the eyes of madmen, we are just figures on a chart
we are just barriers in their path towards world
domination, domination, domination

2. Force Of Law

blindly followed out of fear, out of
desperation for something more than this
the remnants of a life once significant
the remnants of minds once thoughtful
the remnants of hopes once realized
the force of law, the defeating of all life
the defeating of all life, defeat, defeat
kept in line for years and years
patience, obedience, clenching fists
the force of law, the defeating of all life
the defeating of all life, defeat, defeat
the pressure's mounting, shown in our vacant eyes
hardened by never ending stares and obstacles
unsurmountable, unsurmountable
blindly followed out of fear
blindlow followed history
blindly followed out of obedience
blindly followed out of fear, fear, fear

3. Rabid Panic

my mind shut off like a switch on a machine
rejecting all pleasure, denying all pain
numbing of senses, body decays
panic! panic! rabid panic
caught in a shadow of doubt and confusion
panic coursing through panic veins
eager patients, we swallow with ease
keeping us sedate
panic! panic! rising panic
like death walking, struggle each day
go through the motions, fight to maintain
panic! panic! rising panic panic! panic! rabid panic
panic! panic! rising panic panic! panic! rabid panic

4. Deaf And Disbelieving

marching in tandem, they come in drones
strictly waiting with their strongest intent
polishing their guns and boots
searching for moments of truth, they wait for
direct orders under someone somewhere's
sure fire command, polishing their guns and boots
and despite all... despite all the cries and screams
and despite all... despite all the death and defeat
watching closely with absolute refusal to see
searching for truths predetermined
salivating for action, for god and country
eyes glazed over with fear and confusion
muscles tense from anxiety and fatigue
senses overloaded from constant manipulation
and despite all... despite all the cries and screams
and despite all... despite all the death and defeat
blindly they take closer aim

5. The Hunger

a fire sparks inside after a drought was declared
ashes once dormant react and ignite
chain reaction follows, reaction follows
distraction on distraction, no tears will flow tonight
the corpse of the vanquished fight comes to life
comes to life, what was forgotten now takes over
the mighty fools revelled in their victories too soon
undead in our spirit to consume their fragile rule
do you feel it? do you understand?
do you feel it? do you understand?
do you feel the hunger for the freedom to be free
do you feel the thirst for something not so incomplete
as the sinking world we find ourselves
forcefed to accept, as the stinking world we find
ourselves repeating to reject, to reject
do you feel it? do you understand?
do you feel it? do you understand?
do you feel it do you feel it, do you feel it
do you feel it do you feel it, do you feel the hunger?
do you understand?

6. In Formation

they juggle their numbers, they examine their charts
the sum of our ignorance, they submit their reports
year after year, information is suppressed
after years of toil and strife and decades of debate
the equation is solved correctly, all scientists
finally agreed, happily report their findings
too late to turn back now happily report
report their findings: all life will cease to be
the defeat of mankind lies not in their answers
but in the question that we never asked in
the arrogance of our waste, in the knowledge we refused
to retain and when the waves hit again, with baffled
blankness they'll stare, clutching their possessions to their
watery grave, destruction no technology could save
nature's final lesson: no one shall be spared

7. Incendiary

pressure builds, ready to blow, flammable device
set to explode, ire stabbing, never fades
migraine fury, venomous rage, locked and loaded
soon the snap, lost sanity, no looking back
tolerance running low, day by day impatience grows
peddlers of hope promising salvation, closing their
eyes, proclaiming peace in a wartorn world of misery
of misery, optimism is the madness of insisting that
all is well in a sea of disease, sea of disease
do you feel the scalding heat? do you feel the urgent beast?
do you feel the last hopes fading?
incendiary, incendiary, incendiary, set to explode

8. Crucifier

strung up by the hungry hordes, left to decompose
at the feet of sheep, modern day witch hunt
barbaric acts, scapegoats for the righteous cause
scapegoats for the righteous cause
crucifier, crucifier, crucifier, crucifier
seek out targets of practice, each time feeling
more proud, bringing home the kill for devouring
displaying heads as trophies, displaying heads as trophies
crucifier, crucifier, crucifier, crucifier
carry out the valiant fight with the morals of a
perverted priest, hypocrisy is redundant
might obtained from the blood of others
demanding adherence to their own laws while
breaking them in secret, on the surface is sterility
the filth is kept in hiding
crucifier, crucifier, crucifier, crucifier
at the stake, under fire, you're a crucifier, crucifier

9. Under The Radar

discarded rubbish left to dissolve like a castaway
stamped as a reject, sworn to reject, you're a castaway
no one will have you, nowhere to call home, you're a
nameless stray, rules don't apply, no i won't follow
i'm no master's slave scarred at birth, bloodstained
never sold, thrown away
no false salvation can alter the mind of a castaway
no regulations will straighten the path of a castaway
antisocial, anti-society, we're all castaways
they fashion the leash, but i won't wear it
i'm no bastard's slave scarred at birth, bloodstained,
never old, thrown away
on the surface we appear to comply only because
that makes us harder to detect
under the radar, under the radar
dismantling the plans, sabotaging the schemes
skewing the numbers, shattering the dreams

10. Plan Of Execution

a barren landscape of a ravaged world
forgotten remnants of a savage war
vultures scatter, buzzards swarm
darkness descending from the heavens' scorn
the caches of riches mean nothing now
a scalpless skeleton wears the crown
empires fall and all are equal in death
peasant and slaver take their last breath their last breath
hand in hand, time after time, insane despots
execute by design, taking the world down
with them in vain, colors fade into a sea of grey
no in blindness, life stops breathing
no signs of life but the scavengers feasting
no signs of life, no signs of life, no signs of life
