Confess
04:20
|

Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper
But the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy
Therefore confess your sins to each other so that you may be healed
For if you forgive other people when they sin against you
You will be forgiven
You will be forgiven
You will be forgiven
Lighten the load, throw down your burden
Utilize your words, embrace the sermon
Sins wreathe flames on the conscience
Warp the consciousness you're caught in
So let go the weight on your shoulders
Manifest the way, you should've chosen
Relinquish faith and abolish
Forces persuading you to silence
Salvation for the blessed
Speak and rest
Confess, please confess
Escape the claws, of the malicious
Utilize your strength, chase ambitions
We're all just clay with a conscience
Distraught consciousness, not monsters
Time to grow, to establish progress
Manifest the road, leading to success
Relinquish faith and abolish
Forces persuading you to break your promise
Salvation for the blessed
Speak and rest
Confess, please confess
Tell me everything, everything
Tell me every pain you've held in
I will unwind the chains you meld with
Confess
Tell me everything, everything
Secrets trapped underneath your skin
Tell me everything, everything
Show the shameful face you masked then
Confess
Torture yourself no longer
Clean the ruthless mess that you're caught in
Avert the effort to abolish
The paradise you were promised
So confess
Please confess
Confess your sins for progress
Shed your skin, exposed, find rest
Confess
I want to see all of you
I want to feel all of you
I will control all of you
You're mine

Suffer
Omnipotent with this noose around my neck
Awaiting the executioner drops the blade
The greater good, a glorified hypocrisy
Without me only anarchy
I don't drive the tanks
Not in the boots of my mates
While the gods reign supreme
That's my simplest dream
Instead I'm strung to my throne
In this fortress of bones
An empire that's built
By blood from broken men
Cruelty begot efficiency
This world belongs to me
Suffer
Suffer
Suffer
Suffer
The epitome of glory
Preserving what is dear to me
I'll raze uncontrollably
And strike fear into my enemies
Any dog can bite its master
Any slave can kill his handler
Any prince, abandon honor
Any wife can poison water
Every friend can implant doubt
Every spy could sell you out
Every song could turn to a shout
Every second of your life must count
Cruelty begot efficiency
This world belongs to me
When I die noone cries for I am
I am despised
I'll stoke the flames that roar
To save my own life
I'll burn it down, I'll kill you all
To save my own life
My power paid in bloody tax
My fear no different from the common man
I will kill to save my own life
By a thread the sword hangs
Just one thread from my demise
I will kill to save my own life
Just one cut, the sword drops
And so I'll kill to save my own life
I will kill to save myself

Icarus Flight
04:21
|
|||
Poison seeds sown in fountains, dry as ash
Mustard gas from dragons breath spreads fog across the lands
Torn throats choke, drowned in excess and lost hope
A corrupted pilgrim heads for the sun
Consumed pain relieved
I will transcend this mortal coil
Why not embrace the gods
Ascend beyond
Ascend beyond
Scarred, deprived, and left empty, barren
Withered from winds of war
We hide the flames with blackout curtains
Enjoy the steak, bred from vermin
My masterpiece reflected in the burnt up canvas
The paint stroke from souls in anguish
Feel the fall
From the dark above
Feel the chains of our home
Pulling us forever close
These wax wings
Spelling
Our descent
Into Hell
Into Hell

Sic Semper Tyrannis

Sic semper tyrannis
Go!
Dwelling on the mountaintop
Bloated fat from the turkey stuffed
The golden throne raise the wretched fuck
Who demands your faith and praise
Execute the blasphemous
Critics trapped in steel cages
Soldiers march on civilians
Cowering in fear to save their lives
Sic semper tyrannis
Make them wish for a swift demise
Sic semper tyrannis
Rush to arms and slay the tyrant
As the army marches on
Sabotage their roads and form
A line of heroes to dethrone the monster
That keeps the people trodden under
Power of their iron fist
Clasping the nation in its corrupted grip
We all wish they would take a trip
To the river Styx and stop existing
Sic semper tyrannis
Make them wish for a swift demise
Sic semper tyrannis
Rush to arms and slay the tyrant
Let power trade hands
Expulge the cancer
Your master is the enemy
Crave to see them when they bleed
Power, greed, pride, and esteem
Is nothing short of leprosy
Beat the door down
Cut the head off
Sic semper tyrannis
Make them wish for a swift demise
Sic semper tyrannis
Rush to arms and slay the tyrant
Leave your highness slain

Discover
My senseless resentment
Recover
My right to destroy
Barbed fence and violence
Fills this concrete Hell
The smell of sweat and piss
Commands obedience
I don't strike the undeserving
Show respect or your fate is sealed
When you enter my domain
You'll know that Hell is real
Bar my door or wall me in
Chain me down for my sins
Know my spirit cannot be bound
Twenty-three and one, but I'll still get out
Loyalty paid with blood is hard to scrub
And gangbanger limbs have paved my road
Daylight is for the weak, spineless creeps
Who think a meal is for strength and weep
When slob is served filled with rat meat
Here, the warden knows
That I am ruthless
If I get the chance, I'd cut his throat
With my toothbrush
Bar my door or wall me in
Chain me down for my sins
Know that my spirit cannot be bound
Twenty-three and one, but I'll still get out
I don't need to get past the prison walls
I know what cells hold the fucking whores
And I'll get them just you wait
I'll strangulate them with my shoelace
Twenty-three hours locked
A single hour free
Twenty-three hours locked
A single hour free
The sun sets on every soul
Who's damned to enter here
Left to rot in the hole
For the crimes the civies fear!
Bar my door or wall me in
Chain me down for my sins
Know my spirit cannot be bound
Twenty-three and one, but I'll still get out
Bar my door or wall me in
Chain me down for my sins
Know my spirit can never be bound
So kill me now

Death of the Chosen
03:42
|
|||
Terror and death, forget your regrets
The reaper is coming and he's bringing a mess
Preparing yourself, but your prayers for help
Go unanswered in your sterile jailcell
Bound to the bed, the thoughts in your head
Keep circling around your family and friends
The bile in your throat, and the loss of all hope
Consumes you
There is no cure for this bodily revolution
Hindsight provides the best solution
Less pollution
But here we are, and there you go
The tumour grows
And grows, and grows
And grows, and grows
Time to pay with everything that you own
Do you see it now?
Do you see it now?
Hopeless, voiceless, endless
Suffering, dependant on
Anaesthetics, pathetic, forgotten
As this wretched body succumbs
Your heartbeat's drum is slowing down and now
The cancer consumes you
Hidden away your corpse
Rots to the bones
Your last words engraved
In gold on your tombstone
Your legacy
Carries on with your throes
And a relentless corruption
Brought your life to a close
Your genes are so cursed
They made you face your demise
Supremely absurd
Now it's your child's time to die
This horrid disease
Will keep ending lives
For when God looks he sees
The cancer of mankind
Hopeless, voiceless, endless
Suffering, dependant on
Anaesthetics, pathetic, forgotten
As this wretched body succumbs
Your heartbeat's drum is slowing down and now
The cancer consumes you
The cancer consumes you
The cancer consumes you
The cancer consumes you
The cancer consumes you
The cancer consumes
And now the cancer consumes
You

Rats in the Walls
03:54
|
|||
Estranged surroundings
Their color drawn out of space
What desires does
Cthulhu have for me?
Scratching against the walls
Of my reality
Are the rats that speak
There is no hope for me
Patterns inked
Of insects and gods
The present erased
My world laid to waste
By rats in the walls
Whispers of madness
Creep deep thoughts of Dagon
Into my conscious
I see only monsters
Now left abandoned
Stuck wailing in the storm
The dreamscape I fathom
Darkness given form
The present erased
My world laid to waste
By rats in the walls
By rats in the walls
Somnambulist
Or murderous slave?
Body and mind, sundered, untwined
Vacating possession to Azathoth's kind
Nyarlatotep's pet
Unable to comprehend
My motions, my actions, my putrefaction
All void of my intent
Patterns inked
Of insects and gods
The present erased
My world laid to waste
By rats in the walls
Patterns inked
Of insects and gods
The present erased
My world laid to waste
By rats in the walls

Hate Me
03:53
|
|||
Damned be this fragile soul
Contemptful being, self-loathing troll
Cramped and caught in fights untold
Usurped, curtailed by mindless woe
Scratch the itch by shock, so drained
Relieve this spasmic dance with pain
In vain, the branding much the same
Whether whipped or cut there's naught but shame
Naught but shame
Frenzied whirlwinds draw me in
I memorized this life of sins
Forgetting everything that changed me
Abhorring everything that made me
Bloated, sick, with blackened teeth
Worthless, but allowed to breathe, why?
So afraid of death, I'm afraid to bleed
Now, just leave me
This cowardice
Repulsiveness
Discard the trash
Foul and thrashed
Hate me as I do myself
Hate me
Hate me
From dust to dust
Rotting remains
From dust to dust
Rotting remains
A pit of shit
Fucking pest
Discard the trash
Foul and thrashed
Hate me as I do myself
Discard the ash
Erase at last
This jail I've created for myself
Hate me

Repent

Poor sheep
My heart bleeds for the blind
Misaligned, you were left behind
But you still have time
Cleansed pure I throw the first stone
My leading light guides
Leave blasphemers and non-believers behind
Holier than thou
I have seen the coming
Fury, fire, acid rain
We deserve the scorching
Of our Earth, our men, those we love and our children
My words, my friends, listen well for your salvation
Feel the touch of innocence
Grip tightly around your throat
Feel my might, and be cleansed
Repent your sins and stand exposed
Feel the rush of adrenaline
As your darkness drains away
Bask in my glory
Repent
Repent
Repent
Repent
One with the divine
Descendant of our God
Holier than thou
So praise your lord
Adhere my law you loyal subjects
Let heathens scream and cry they're terrified
So praise your lord
There is but one truth
One road, paved with good intentions
There is but one whose
One God, ache on your descent
Our lives are his to claim
Our strength is his to
Dominate and suppress dissent with
Give up or face the flames
Your soul is mine
Embrace the pearly gate
And submit yourself to
My will
My soul
One with the divine
Descendant of our God
Holier than thou
So praise your lord
Adhere my law you loyal subjects
Let heathens scream and cry they're terrified
So praise your lord
