Faces melt away
Space and time at play
Body sliding
Through a blender
Oddly chiding
My surrender
Another truth I must vanquish
In order to remain, a pawn in this game
See through their gaze
Break through the maze
Body sliding
Through a blender
Oddly chiding
My surrender
Another truth I must vanquish
In order to remain, a pawn in this game
They've discovered you
One thing left to do
Cut yourself free, cut yourself free
Then you'll cease to be, then you'll cease to be
Cut yourself free, cut yourself free
Then you'll cease to be, then you'll cease to be
Caught on the barbed wire, caught on the barbed wire
Gutting me open, gutting me open
Caught on the barbed wire, caught on the barbed wire
Gutting me open, gutting me open
Body sliding
Through a blender
Oddly chiding
My surrender
Another truth I must vanquish
In order to remain, a pawn in this game
Without the noose we will languish
Feral beasts now've been tamed, a gun without aim
They know that you've seen
Show's torn at the seams
They know you know
Time to go
They know you know
Time to go

We the Panopticon

We The Panopticon
Fingers grasp sand
Betray the hand
The eyes see all
What we appal
Thrown away
Everything we fought for
Better behave
The deviant is sought after
Fear thy neighbours
They seek favour
From the hangman
They too are damned
Thrown away
Everything we fought for
Better behave
The deviant is sought after
Forfeit
Rid yourself of the delusion
You are a product of an institution
You're a product
Can't you see through the illusion
You are a product of an institution
Under control
Knives in our backs
Prevent attacks
An ally down
So you won't drown
With the beast fed
We keep our heads
But hunger grows
Out of control
Thrown away
Everything we fought for
Better behave
The deviant is sought after
Can't you see through the illusion
You are a product of an institution
You're a product

下拜

下拜, and beg!
Your reign is over
You have been removed,
Be gone, lest you wish
Slaughter
Slaughter
Heard you bleed, Saw you scream,
Watched you drown in the stream
If you resist,
I will destroy you
Better desist
Accept me as your master
The drops of blood
You drain from me
I'll repay a million fold
And fill a sea
No mercy
for the enemy,
Pledge to me
all your loyalty
And if you think your soldiers,
Will still follow your orders.
You'll see that every day
More and more will betray.
You didn't heed,
Merciful warnings
And now you've killed the seed
I will grant no mourning
Your time is through
I will bury you
Your days are in the few
But you already knew
I will bury you
I will bury you
I will bury you
I will bury you

Enemies in the Shadows
06:22
|

|
Shackled and gagged
Taken away
Reduced to rags
Put on display
I have been kept down by my enemies too long
They wont know justice until blood's been drawn
When they come for you you'll know
The harbinger will be front row
Followed by forgotten souls
Hunting for their own shadows
Reality
Is what we make it
An enemy
Can be created
I will not accept the world I've been handed
There is a war brewing, a devil's been branded
When they come for you you'll know
The harbinger will be front row
Followed by forgotten souls
Hunting for their own shadows
Protection through projection
Shadows blinding reflection
Enemies manipulate, a puppet held by chains
From the shadows.
Protection through projection
Shadows blinding reflection
Every brick laid down to build my tomb
I will use to crush skulls, and bring a new doom
A new idea, infected in the womb
Poisoning the mind, tragedy looms
The frightened
Will unite
Their grip will tighten
Choking our rights
Breeding animals of animosity
Passivity the destroyer of harmony

Infanticide
03:50
|

|
Skin peels
Freeing imprisoned bones
A deal
Signed by the dying moans
Maggots imbibing pus, spewing from within us
Gorging on rotten flesh, the stench of death is fresh
Hounds bite
Eating the hand that feeds
Ingesting
Parasites
Lacing the corpse with seeds
Infecting
The mother consumes her child
Can never assume the wild
Brains decay in the skull
A meal to cull
Screaming without a tongue,
The sound goes numb
Eyes burn
With the truth their shown
Return
Into the dark unknown

Waken,
Unstoppable since my birth
Unleash my strength on the Earth
All will submit
If the dogs refuse to fight,
They will feel their own bite
Taking,
Control of the starving beasts
A cannibalistic feast
See their teeth grit
There can never be a force like me
Feigning
The will of the one divine
Hiding the true serpentine
Swallowing whole
There can never be a force like me
If the dogs refuse to fight,
They will feel their own bite
Gazing
Upon the hounds bleeding them dry
Razing
They won't be the last ones to die
Facing
I am the lens of the world's eye
Beware of my offspring
They will annihilate us all

The morbid thoughts of the living
Weighed down by the consequence
But what if the gods were giving
Free reign over all?
For the chosen
Justice blooms be you willing
Waiting for your consent
But how do gods feel while killing?
Vindication falls
For the chosen
The power flowing through bloodied hands
Intoxicating
The hour of reckoning at hand
Time is fading
The will, be made, flesh torn, with blades
The weight of 10 000 corpses
Only lightens you
Once ill, now well, forlorn, for hell
The gate opens if you force it
To a heightened view
Am I ready to die knowing I've failed?
Can I face the lie? I was never chosen
Never chosen
Am I ready to die knowing I've failed?
Can I face the lie? I was never chosen
Never chosen
Still standing
Legs buried
Sky landing
Arms carried
Justice blooms be you willing
Waiting for your consent
But how do gods feel while killing?
Vindication falls
We haven't forgotten what you owe
A debt greater than your feeble soul
Time to return what you stole
Time to return what you stole
Time to return what you stole
Time to return what you stole

Filth and greed
Corruption
Digging our graves
Humanity
Partitioned
Masters and slaves
This city's dying
Don't you see it?
This city's dying
Can't you feel it?
This city's dying
Open your eyes!
Decadence
Distraction
Morals weaken
Impotence
Inaction
Rise of heathens
This city's dying
Don't you see it?
This city's dying
Can't you feel it?
This city's dying
Open your eyes!
Watch out,
The walls will betray you
They shout,
calling to Lamashtu
Weeds break through the stones
Bodies hanging in the garden, reduced to bones
Hanging in the garden
Reduced to bones
Watch out,
The walls will betray you
They shout,
Calling to Lamashtu
Filth and greed
Corruption
Digging our graves
Humanity
Partitioned
Masters and slaves
Down by the river
You'll find the bodies
The floods deliver
A new humanity
All empires will fall
