RECIDIVUS LYRICS
"Back From The Ashes" (2001 Demo)
1. Holiness Incarnate
2. Dead Silence
3. Scepter of Dust
1. Holiness Incarnate
Destroyed by the mindless crimes
Now reap the suffer - for what you've sown
Wounds we tore aren't healed
They're open, shouting for revenge
We're all guilty all lost
We know we shall pay
Look at His hands, look at His feet
Streams of blood upon the skull
Look at His face, look at His pain
Dying, forsaken by God
The words He speaks, above our wisdom
No hatred, bitterness or fear
No revenge, but a prayer for a murderer
Look at His face, look at His pain
Mutilated by our own immorality
Spiritually dead, in silence we bleed
Self-disgust, bitterness flows
For the state we're in with no return
We're all guilty all lost
Price we cannot pay
Look at His hands, look at His feet
Streams of blood upon the skull
Look at His face, look at His pain
Dying, forsaken by God
The words He speaks, above our wisdom
No hatred, bitterness or fear
No revenge, but a prayer for a murderer
Look at His face, look at His pain
Revealed before the eyes of men
as all the curtains fall
The Truth beyond the blackened sky
Holiness Incarnate
Sacrifice to take the guilt
atonement for our souls
The Truth beyond the blackened sky
Holiness Incarnate
2. Dead Silence
Enchained
from birth with curtain on their eyes
Despite the years of screaming
Their pain the time won't fade away
Generation's journey
towards the end
Blinded eyes hailing machine
of censored information
Dead silence
Inner world is smothered
Minds slowly growing torpid
by the tranquilizing hum
Ooh!
Enslaved
by the systematic lies
Your heart
you choose to silence
Are you the master
of your own will
with thoughts programmed
by ones behind the screen
Dead silence
Inner world is smothered
Minds slowly growing torpid
by the tranquilizing hum
Ooh!
Dead silence
Inner world is smothered
Sceptical mind
programmed by ones you deny
The days of youth go by
Night falls upon all life
So, what will be left
as the days of youth go by
Hand of the Father
or spine-chilling fear of the unknown...
3. Scepter of Dust
Science, to outline all existence
Eyes, sealed up in silence
Building the kingdom of sand
Dust takes the shape of man-made heaven
Illusion of freedom feeding restricted mind
Scepter of dust - Make your bitter share
to hold it for a while, for a while
Waste your life, building castles of sand
Scepter of dust - Leaving you to die
Open up your eyes
to see there's more beyond
Doctrine they make you believe In
can't stand reality
For no one leaves the stage,
no one ever leaves the stage
holding scepter of dust
Wrapped up in wealth
closed are your eyes
Censorship to deduct the pain
as they control your mind
Wrapped up in wealth
closed are your eyes
but illusion of freedom
is about to break
Lying, six feet beneath your estate
No more shall it glorify your might
Ruins of your kingdom,
reminding mortal visions vanish
With empty hands you came,
with nothing will you pass away.
It's all material
It's all emotional
Scepter of dust - Leaving you to die
Open up your eyes to see
there's more beyond
Doctrine they make you believe in
can't stand reality
