It's getting harder
To Find a reason
To go on
Grab the man by his f****** neck and squeeze
I can't understand how a man can live this Western life
Without questioning the repetitive daily routine
We've been sold someone else's dream
But when told you don't want to believe
Give me the strength to co-exist
It's getting harder to live with morons
Acta Non Verba; but who is the real enemy?
I can't tell the difference
Do I shoot the shepherd or the sheep?
Kneel down and assume
The position created by you
The man won't ever go slack
While you're always pushing back
I cannot consent to have in power
Someone or something that takes my power away from me
And I will not consent to be sold a vision
Your reality, I declare you the enemy

Forgive me father
One God to another
Reality's truth stripped away
When the finite dictates the mind
Antagonise mortality
Condescending mist in your eyes...
(So I)
Stare!
Straight into the eyes of
A world going down
And I don’t
Care!
Stoic in my stance
You arse-holes can stay right
There!
Stuck in your ground
You can’t bother me now
Forsake the father
Inhibition through tradition
Thank you the father of (lies)
Submission never attained
Ostracise!
Watch you shirk the blame!
Clouded becoming so
Calloused breeding your
Madness so intensely within me
Is ire such a cancer?
Cynical becoming so
Pitiful ones outlook now
Blackened this burden
Ensnaring that moment you
Realise the failure how
Foresights a traitor
Father of lies
In your blessed ears

ZOMBIE WATCHING OF PICTURES
INGEST THEIR SORDID LIES
CUT THROAT SEEMS FAMILIAR
THE TASTE OF BLOOD AND ACCEPTANCE
FAKE SENSE OF BEING INVOLVED
REMOVE FOCUS FROM BORING LIVES
BE BLIND TO REAL WORLD ISSUES
NO COMPASSION FOR THE WEAK
IT'S NO USE FIGHTING
MEDIOCRITY'S ALREADY WON
HAND OVER YOUR LIFE TO IT
IT'S UNDEFEATABLE
MASS DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR
CLOUD POWER THAT'S TAKEN AWAY
REAL MEN LONG SINCE GONE
ALL THE BATTLES WASTED AWAY
CHILDREN TAUGHT TO ABIDE
NOT TAUGHT TO QUESTION THE RULES
GET IN LINE AND ASSIMILATE
ANOMALIES CALLED THE FOOLS
YOU... TAKE... WHAT'S NOT YOURS
I... BUILD... IT UP INSIDE
EVERYDAY'S A COUNTDOWN
TO WHAT... I DON'T KNOW
PREYING ON THE SIMPLE MINDS
WON'T BEAT THE TEST OF TIME
IT'S TIME FOR REVOLUTION
TIME TO END YOUR DICTATION

For Flesh and Future

The patron saint
Of a judgment day
Attired in arrogance and cast away
For the slaughter
The slaughter of its mind
Haze of failure the sweet deceit
Blindly guiding a fools mean feat
Decisions derisions against the grain
Facing the fiends along the way
Blood thinned down to hide regret
Wear the colours to veil the mind
Ignore the poisons of passion and tact
Bleed the bastards of their time
Condition a penchant for pain!
Determined and broken and blistered and proud
Frayed at the ends afraid of the self
Chants come hymns to seal an end
Destroyed and deadened, reclaimed and rebuilt
Unknown unto itself
Welcome home
To where time and colour
Wipes the glint from your eyes
Puts acid in your veins
Steals your youth
The patron saint of a judgment day
Attired in arrogance
Created in cause
Is welcomed home
As it marches as to war
The world now shaken
A move to be made
Piece of the mind now theirs to forsake
Thy will be done and raze it will be
Annihilate a God's mandate
Let the chaos reign free

Keloid
02:31

I’m punching through this veil
With keloids on the temporal
Should it ever fail
Anesthetized I cannot fall
With honour in our mind
Weapons bared and running blind
You can’t break down the gate
With promises that crossed the line
Head first onto the pyre
This bastard wraith of a demon empire
Sown in torpor reaped in ire
The armies of hell I’m raising higher
They’re clawing at the slopes
With blisters on their trodden hands
We’re lending them new hope
With bloodied weapons strong demands
Canines bared in hate
Our enemies redouble speed
They will ascend the slopes
The armies of hell I’ve set them free
Awaiting

Hail across the nation
Steeped in silence black
The thoroughbred generation
Cross upon our backs
Years of dedication
The fortress abounds
This piece of creation
Flesh torn down
There's a power play
Call the prophets out
You’re searching for ascension
Your word is ours to doubt
Inter caecos regnat strabo
We are not the ones who've grown old
Crossing that divided line
We are the dawning of a new time
We
We begin
The assault
On heaven
You’re still of flesh and blood
I could break all your bones
You sit at the right hand now
But we’ll assault your throne
We
We begin
The assault
On heaven
(building)
You can't change the vision in my mind
Your own is far too blind for the world in its changing
And you can't hide the blood that soaks your hand
The silence you demand it can never be given
They’re your sins
They're not mine
They’re your ways
Far from divine
Archaic notions
Carved in stone
Arcane concepts
Still left unknown
Fear is not to be feared
Hail across all nations!
Weakness is not consent!
Hail across all nations!
Fear is not to be feared!

It takes us back under the spell
The vision fading now
Your God failed me
With sweat soaked hand I grip the knife
The night is coming down
You can’t hide now
(Chorus)
Deadly determined
No one will save you
I’m deadly determined
No one will save you
With pointed teeth and darting eyes
One twisted fucking creature
I will slay it
When time and torment breaks its spine
I’ll tear it limb from limb
And they won’t give a fuck

Nothing Of Value
06:37

WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO SHOW ME THE SIGN
SEEMS THERE'S NO GOOD REASON TO CONTINUE WITH THIS LIFE
BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR
EVERYTHING EVERYONE JUST CONTINUES TO BORE
I FALLEN INTO PURGATORY TRAPPED INSIDE MY MIND
NOTHING OF VALUE
LOOKING UP AND REACHING OUT AND SEEKING THE SUBLIME
I SEE NOTHING OF VALUE
I FEEL NOTHING OF VALUE
BREATHE BREATHE BREATHE
GIVE IN TO EVIL THOUGHTS THAT I'VE CONCEIVED
LET THEM TAKE CONTROL AND GUIDE ME
FEEL THE POWER GROW LIKE A HUNGRY DISEASE
WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO USE THEIR OWN MIND
CAN ANYONE JUSTIFY THE STORY OF THEIR LIFE
MAYBE IT'S NOT THE WAY WE'VE BEEN TAUGHT
SOCIETY'S RULES ARE THE REASON I'M DISTRAUGHT
LOOKING UP AND REACHING OUT AND SEEKING THE SUBLIME
I SEE NOTHING OF VALUE
I FEEL NOTHING OF VALUE
ANOTHER COMMERCIAL AND I'M GOING TO SNAP
USELESS PEOPLE PEDDLING THEIR USELESS CRAP
EVERYONE GET INVOLVED IT IS
PEOPLE AND NOT LEADERS THAT WILL BREAK THE MOULD
BREAK THE MOULD X 3
I LOOK AROUND
ALL I SEE IS WASTED YOUTH
I REMEMBER WHEN LIFE WAS SO SIMPLE
STRESS PLAYED NO PART IN MY MIND
NOW EVERYWHERE ALL I SEE IS RED
AND THE SICKNESS BUILDS UP INSIDE
GENERATIONS OF GULLIBLE MISFITS
UNABLE TO MAKE THEIR OWN MINDS
I CAN SEE NOW WHERE THIS HATE HAS COME FROM
THEY'LL NEVER LEARN TO CHANGE THEIR WAYS
AND I FEEL SORROW FOR THEIR SOULS
DERELICTION OF DUTY TO
SET AN EXAMPLE
BUT I STILL FEEL NO BETTER ABOUT IT
BUT I STILL FEEL NO BETTER
BUT I STILL FEEL NO BETTER ABOUT IT
BUT I STILL FEEL NO BETTER
I SEE NOTHING OF VALUE
I FEEL NOTHING OF VALUE
ANOTHER COMMERCIAL AND I'M GOING TO SNAP
USELESS PEOPLE PEDDLING THEIR USELESS CRAP
EVERYONE GET INVOLVED IT IS
PEOPLE AND NOT LEADERS THAT WILL BREAK THE MOULD
BREAK THE MOULD X 4
BREATHE BREATHE

Face down against the
Concrete I attain
Sensory overload
White noise white noise!
Cortical, corporeal, divinity crushes life
Carnal, corporeal, human, divine
Cold hands dead in their
Spasmodic gripping for my
Esoteric arrhythmia
Carnal lusts bleeding through
My covert faith turn the inert mind against its sanctum
“Do as thout will shalt be the whole of the law”
Edge of the Earth my will manifests
Conjured by demons the soul slips away
Kingdom eternal corporeal divine
The legacy, the cortical, the stains on time
Choice, freedom and will-power
No currency can grant that status
Teetering on the brink
I shove you into oblivion
You bought into nothing
Gave all you were given
Into a doctrine
Where fools are martyrs
And constants are truths
Not to be shaken
It’s all on the platter now wait till
Your world is served
Hadit guide us on towards
Nuit with Babalon and Therion
Thy will is law
A pox on the filth
That did bring the affliction
From soaring heights
I drop the noose
Shivering I re-emerge
My thoughts shape the earth
Elastic I ascend
The future and the past collide
A sanctimonious blessing
What did stay my hand
That it should be unleashed?
What caused the chasm
Into which the world did sink?
It’s not the end of the world
But from this throne we can see it
From here we are not the same

What's Left To Die For
05:41
|
|||
I sink my knees
Into the Earth
10,000 years are demanding rebirth
The spiritual constructs these concepts divine
The poison of Gomorrah left all our minds
Dead in this storm casualties for the norm
Bearing this torch the sin of the martyr
Held in a grip gone limpid: a soul left to squeeze on demand
It's getting harder so give me a reason
To go into eternity
Lifeless, sterile
I press my ear
Against the stone
Diseased and soul sick are calling me home
Still I tunnel with ten broken fingers
As long as I’m crawling mankind won’t stay
Lost in this smog a tapping hand at our veins
We’ll lay it all on our courage our honour
Not for sale once we’re gone; freedom the stain of our crest
If one who asks questions is one that is evil
Then I am your devil
I’m standing, waiting
There remains what's left to die for
In the darkness a flame forgotten
The end of infinity
Is beckoning right before all of us
The flame hides the fuel as it beckons the few
Antithesis to prove it shines all the brighter
World warped and weary; an urn to rest all our heads
Dare you dare
Dare to dare?
