Blood and Body

Sterilize the nation
Choking on it's lies
With every imperfection
Cutting closer to the line
Gas Masks and gas attacks
With nothing to believe
Fighting off the hydra
Cutting god to his knees
Thou shall not murder… unless we offend
Thou shall not covet in the eyes of consent
Thou shall not beat you… lest we pretend
That war crimes a virtue, if done on cement
(Amen…)
When all hell breaks loose
And I can't save you
This world will rape you
Blood and Body
Blood and Body
Homogenized nation
With the freedom to pretend
That Everything is "great"
When your children are in enslaved
Marching on a nation
That keeps children in a cage
We're anti-fascist antibodies
Tearing out the page
Thou shall not murder… unless we offend
Thou shall not covet in the eyes of consent
Thou shall not beat you… lest we pretend
That war crimes a virtue, if done on cement
(Amen…)
When all hell breaks loose
And I can't save you
This world will rape you
Blood and Body
Blood and Body

Wretched Ones
Verse:
It’s the system’s retribution
To no violent contributions
Never taste until you swallow
Anything but pure perfection
Laceration of our freedoms
Driving deeper than our reasons
Can you see your own reflection
In your riot shields
Verse 2:
Hypocritic and malignant
Let the serpents writhe
Feeding on their own self hatred
Let the serpents die
Retribution of wrong doing
Kneel before my eyes
Wreaking of my own salvation
Let this world die
Chorus
It’s the same
Always, I can’t believe in
The things they’ve been preaching
Can you feel it burning?
All the days are falling backwards
And I’m making a pact with
The wretched ones that you blame
Verse 3:
If I’m honest I feel nothing
when I see your flag burning bright
Sleepless nights of Terror,
stuck in this never ending fight
Disgracing our ideals
Silencing the wretched
But we’re stronger than ever
against the fascist you’ve elected
It’s the same
Always, I can’t believe in
The things they’ve been preaching
Can you feel it burning?
All the days are falling backwards
And I’m making a pact with
The wretched ones that you blame
Consequences won't stop, bleeding the faithless
consumption of the dialogue is leaving us mindless
prosthetic perfection, delirium conquest
everyone, everything, keep bleaching the unrest
It’s the same
Always, I can’t believe in
The things they’ve been preaching
Can you feel it burning?
All the days are falling backwards
And I’m making a pact with
The wretched ones that you blame
Wretched ones you blame
Go

Daybreak
03:26
|
|||
|
Killing myself everyday
Just to make the days flow
I can′t tell what I'm doing
No I don′t really know
Why'd you promise me the world
Then you strip me of my soul
Wanted to be everywhere
But I have nothing to show
In the dark I can not see
(In the dark I can not see)
But the light is blinding me
(But the light is blinding me)
Try to save me from myself
But I am a mess
The world is changing yet again
And I won't pretend
I′ll kill myself to walk with stars
I′d sell my soul for fucking hope
Why'd you ask me if I′m fine
As you slit my open throat
I've ripped apart reality
Just so I can truly be
One without a fantasy
One with Sensibility
In the dark I can not see
(In the dark I can not see)
But the light is blinding me
(But the light is blinding me)
Try to save me from myself
But I am a mess
The world is changing yet again
And I won′t pretend
Hypnotize the critics
Feed them fake bliss
Let them feel the fucked up words
That come from my lips
Dying for another line
And no ones alive
I am my own villain
And certain of my lies
Try to save me from myself
But I am a mess
The world is changing yet again
And I won't pretend
Lie to save my innocence
But I won′t pretend
This life is everything
And I'm dying again

Amerikkk

Verse 1:
Amerikkk and I’ll say it the same way
The lack of recognition is an act of war
Unchecked Aggression, through a nuclear path
Got the loudest way to say it and I’m back for more
Chorus:
Holy War
Fuck it up
Holy War
Fuck it up
Verse 2:
Bring out the napalm
I’m ready for the thrill
Got my eyes on descention
My beating heart be still
Override my circuits
Burning out of control
Corrosion of your dogma
From thy anti-christian soul

Harbinger of Death
02:08
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
Harbinger of death while you sleep with the rest
Of wilt of decay, hallowed be thy name
No punishment too great to see the burning of your cross
The serpent works faster, when thrust in the laughter
Pre-chorus:
Harbinger of death re-awake to set me free
Help me as a I suffocate; Annihilate these dreams
Verse 2:
Slowly start to break away; Thoughts are so devoid;
Faster; Dementor; The Friction of the fun
No Second coming; Antichrist; The end begins to fold
Fallout with the laughter; Whats bitter, Comes after
Verse 2:
And then I see it, its the witching of the soul
Wave after wave, falling faster towards control
Phasing out intelligence; For apathy in fame
Their Circuitry is all the same, the culture born
Of ash and flame
Pre-chorus:
Harbinger of death re-awake to set me free
Help me as a I suffocate; Annihilate these dreams
Against All Gods
Against All Gods

EVOCATION
03:04
|
|||
|
Theres a thousand ways to do it,
Sell it fast as you can
The soul is cheap and dirty
and so am I
I got a broken heart
Razor tongue
With wings that can cut
The pressure all around you
If its written in blood
I caught your Heresy...
Evoke the pain in me,
Don’t let it atrophy
I hate what I see
I want everything
Evoke the pain in me
Don’t let it atrophy
I hate what I see
Take it on me
Wrapped around my own disease
"The Imitation"
Every systems breaking
and my heart gives in
Some call it mercy,
and some call it flame
Let your children bleed
and see who's to blame
