For five million years
Our system sketched in stone
Etched by our sacred tradition
By the warring states
We attribute eons of our existence
To beast and rodent.
Although on both sides of the mirror
We remain so alike
Take common need, a human creed and
Adaptation ensues
Time
Is an artificial device
Invisible cage that imprisons us
Bend the bars, break the cycle of tradition
But never forget
To appreciate
Let us remember our roots
As we ascertain methods to ward the tomb
Abandon our feuds
And open our minds to the sun

Can you feel the gates giving?
Do you quiver at our uprising?
Fighting against you
Overthrow
Bringing the end (Torrential Rain)
Over is your tyranny
Violent fall from grace
Never again will you brandish the sword
Washed away (Torrential Rain)
Bloody
Your rise to power
Fearful
Your loyal subjects
War crimes
Your vicious tactics
I'll fucking cut your head off
Bloody
Your final battle
Fearful
You hopeless coward
Rebel
Against your legion
I'll fucking cut your head off
Draw the sword of your destruction
Catch the gaze of your damnation
Fuel the flames of your ignition
Bringing the end (Torrential Rain)
This is the last time that you and I will cross paths within this life
Call upon your subjects
This ends now
Was it worth it to lose yourself in your power thirsty quest to conquer?
Pray to your gods that they may deliver you
Hold your breath, I'll make this quick, which is more than you deserve
And as your head rolls upon the earth a new era of peace will dawn.

Rise

I hate you
You pompous tyrant
A failure of a father figure
Your control is but words
Hollow and lonely just like you
Crawl on your knees
You will bleed
Force fed the medicine you yearn to receive
And I will Rise
You suffer because of him
Character petrified
By the mind leeching media you subscribe
No idea what you are, what you want or what you need
You're shackled and blind
But I will Rise.
Sadness and separation
Are harboured here
Not to your throne, but to my own
Which is freedom from you
How could I forget you
The one who brings me this
The face I wish to smash along with your life
But you hold me down, and push me around
And hold me back, unconsciously attack my mind
Sadness and separation
Are harboured here
Not to your throne, but to my own
Which is freedom from you
At the death this will end
If not you then me
Not anymore will we stand
Stand for this

Die
Deceiver
Fall below
Take your insides
Turn them out
Behemoth
Deliverance
Bone shattering roar
Decimate
All that you are
Spill your blood
Upon the floor
Beast inside this vessel
Shed the veil of humanity
Release my cursed insanity.

You give me the rope
And we set it alight
You give us a way out
Still we're statuesque
The life of a drone
Is not what we wish
Some say that death is harboured in the cold
Yet we are birthed in its kingship
And yearn to brave it once more
We see home
We will never look back
Advance forward and conquer
For us the torch is not lit, for the path forward is best taken blind
For us the torch is not lit, for the path forward is best taken blind
To you a trap is to us a blessing
A warning is a beckoning
The life in the crowd is your story
And ours is what we write for ourselves
So when you fall to the ground
It will be in our shadow
Even if you never stumble
Our march will rumble

Why is this happening?
What is this burning that I feel?
This feeling taking over
My mind is screaming out for peace
How can I tell you
I've failed despite my best efforts?
I am too young to die
Don't let this happen to me
All of the light is fading
There is nothing more to be done (So save your breath)
Trapped in this world I bleed
Now it is too dark to see
Darkness is overwhelming
Close my eyes to hide from it
My soul is scarred and broken
This pain is taking over me
There's nothing you can do
I have already made my choice
It's now my time to move on
The door has opened up for me
All of the light is fading
There is nothing more to be done (So save your breath)
Trapped in this world I bleed
Now it is too dark to see
What other choice do I have?
Now that I have seen the truth the ugliness repulses me
When I leave this place don't mourn for me
Mourn for yourself because you're the one that's suffering

Armageddon
10:22
|
|||
A short slumber ends in the trenches
By the blaring mortar shells
The skies are red
Seems they've been for days
And my brothers murdered, dead
Slaughter weaved into my brain
Programmed by the leaders
Mindless killing machine (killing machine)
I am not a machine
Propaganda makes us believe
I am not a machine
Propaganda makes us believe
But how can we believe?
When you feed me seeds of hate
False accusations of a plague-ridden people
They are not the enemy
Just the target of your madness (we know this)
Yet war machines rumble...
...And triggers pull,
We burn the Earth and think not of the eternal
I am not a machine
Propaganda makes us believe
I am not a machine
Propaganda makes us believe
What will it take to make us see,
that we ignite the ground that bears our seeds?
Turn blind eyes towards the sky and industrialize the apocalypse.
