1. The Kill
1. The Kill
There's nothing left to gain
You have just been led
The kill, after death, the kill
The shit you were promised
Means nothing now you're dead
The kill, after death, the kill
2. Prison Without Walls
2. Prison Without Walls
Trapped
Inside your head
Insular, living dead
Existing for a purpose you'll never find
Inducements, distortions contorting your mind
External sources maintain control
Programmed existance, fulfill your role
You've got a brain, shake off the reigns
Smash the shackles, break the chains
3. Dead
DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!
4. Deceiver
4. Deceiver
Becoming wary of your lies
Your disguise the truth belies
Only fooling yourself
Pretend to bite the hand that feeds
But you won't discard your security
The transparency of your fantasy
5. Lucid Fairytale
5. Lucid Fairytale
Delude yourself with the notion
That life's viewed defiantly through your eye
Subconsciously following the flock
From which appearance is the only exemption
The stagnant illusion of change
Concealed behind your disguise
What's perspicious on the surface
Is artificial inside
When views are merely symbolic
Of an image you hide behind
The stagnant illusion of change
Concealed behind your disguise
6. In Extremis
7. Blind to the Truth
7. Blind To The Truth
Behind the transition
Lies a sense of ambiguity
Why hide behind the truth
Of what you are?
Your character becomes distorted
In the quest for an identity
Why hide behind the truth
Of what you are?
8. Negative Approach
8. Negative Approach
Nothing I can say
That hasn't already been said
Generic words and thoughts
Similarly expressed
This primitive stance
Feelings of angst
Matters relating
To circumstance
"Unfounded reactions
Just part of the faction"
Conform?
I wouldn't give you the satisfaction
9. Common Enemy
9. Common Enemy
Bitching
Back Biting
Senseless Infighting
"United we stand
Divided we fall"
The common enemy that overshadows us all
10. Obstinate Direction
11. Life
Brought into this emptiness
Never hope or choice
Emotionless and cold
This is life?
Illusions shattered
An existence of lies
A constant struggle
Freedom denied
At their feet - submission
No sanctuary in death
Drugged up, fucked up
Is that all you're worth?
12. You Suffer
You suffer...
But why?
13. Multi-National Corporations
Multinational corporations
Genocide of the starving nations
14. Instinct of Survival
Advertise the product you make
Never give but always take
Kill and lie for security
Your shit on supermarket shelves to see
Instinct of survival
The multinational corporations
Makes its profit from the starving nations
Indigenous peoples become their slaves
From their births into their graves
The multinational corporations
Makes its profit from the starving nations
Another product for you to buy
You'll keep paying until you die
15. Stigmatised
Blissfully ignorant
Content and unaware
Not your problem
Why should you care?
Not normal
An easy target for release
Infected from birth
This sickening disease
You sanctimonious slime
Understanding discarded
The truth is clear
It's you that's retarded
16. Parasites
Permissive slaves
To their methods of greed
From our needs
The leeches feed
When will you see?
We'll never be free
While we sanction
This plutocracy
17. Moral Crusade
A superiority complex
Pious, holy to the hilt
Outwards displays of cleanliness
Masking inner feelings of hate and guilt
Your morality is hypocrisy
Obsessive self-esteem
Enforcing your ideals
Your puritanical dream
Gather your flock
Gullible fools
Dictate restrictions
18. Worlds Apart
19. M.A.D
Stark, bleak, wasted
Devastated
When?
All life
Totally annihilated
Die!
Does it have to be this way
Is this the price we're gonna pay?
20. Divine Death
Cleansing impurity
Seizure of insecurity
Divine death
Individuality disabled
Blinded by fables
Divine death
Easy prey
You will pay
Mourn life's loss
Rotting on that cross
Divine death
21. C.S
Eminent
Arrogant
Ignorant
Affluent
Desensitized
Devoid and blind
All compassion nullified
Paragon of virtue
(Paragon of shit)
22. Control
There is a fascist
Inside of you
Controlling your life
And what you do
Fascist control
There is a fascist
Inside your head
Controlling your thoughts
Until your death
Fascist control
23. Walls (Siege Cover)
(SIEGE)
Walls that part humanity
Over which I cannot see
Walls as old as history
Cast a shadow over me
Break down the walls
Take down them all
Break down the
Take down the
Shake down the
Walls that divide the nations
Keep them in isolation
Segregate the populations
Beat down the opposition
Break down the walls
Take down them all
Break down the
Take down the
Shake down the
Barriers that divide
Trapping me inside
Bring apartheid to an end
Cross the border
Make a friend
Break down the walls
Take down them all
Break down the
Take down the
Shake down the walls
24. Raging In Hell (S.O.B. Cover)
