No Solace 01:50
I stay away from the outside world Restless thoughts no essence to reality separate myself from the rest Life and death, is all the same to me no solace in this hell you call life overwhelming odds that i cant face mankind, the curse i cant erase Blinded by the sun Shrouded by darkness thought it was the end death keeps creeping in Face to face with my demise evil voices, hear their cries desolate life, existence fades devoured, lowered into the grave
2.
Echoes, of the forgotten past the end, claiming all, in its path They will never cease, never decay They will never stop, cant be blamed A slave to what i cannot name I cannot name Relentless, the beasts I cant contain I, cant numb the pain Voices as dead as god, keep me in chains Jagged teeth gnaw at my heels Beckoning the end, agony is all I feel Feeling the scorn of the world
3.
All sanity slipping away You keep digging your own grave Won't follow the scheme, I'll shatter the mold Try to numb the pain as the end unfolds Forced to fight Fight to survive Survivals an illusion As we prepare to die Just prey in this world Our steady decline Nothing but a fools disguise Set me free From this mad, this mad world I see All that lies ahead The beginning of the end As chaos reigns No one remains No one wins Cut down in our path One with darkness Into the death trap Crawling my way to the surface No one wins
4.
Swallow the lie Fall up to the sky Bear witness to truth on your way out Victim of fraud Only selfish eyes Fuel faith, detest all doubt Mortalize, immortal lies Prophetize Justify this, moral drought Humbled by your alibi Power in shame, one in the same All hope No truth Infinite pursuit Divine So blind Oppress those of your kind Enslave Defy Rules of your design Your faith Disgrace Demise within your fate Killing fields On either side Sworn against beliefs you base your life about Saving face with your disguise Deceit, lie and cheat Forced down the throat, rather choke Out casting all of those who don't comply

Disembodied 01:40
Consciousness, disease of the mind Tossing and turning, desperate for sleep In a bed of broken glass Slashed and severed, beaten and battered Begging for the hope that we seek Threatened and tortured, deceived and detoured Fabricated to be weak Absence, without meaning we rot forever Waiting and waiting, searching for anything In a sky of emptiness Separation, disembodied existence Consciousness, disease of the mind Dehumanization, convinced of deathlessness Absence, without meaning we rot for all of time
6.
Can't ignore the beasts that lie beneath Echoes from the depths seep up Through the cracks in the concrete These demons that thrive Buried deep in our minds The rusty gears of civilization Move on with humanity Overlooked, buried beneath
7.
Shake, this worlds locked us all into our tombs Impending doom Chaos in our houses, in our streets We never knew peace Backed up against a wall Looking up I realize All I ever had brought nothing to me Looking to the sky for the answer, it wont set you free Purpose lost, nuclear frost I cant see the signs Blinded by the delusion of mankind I'm done trying and I've finally learned No point in looking for a way out I've lost hope, I'm letting go You're on your own I shut my eyes, I cant screen it out You, waste your time, crying out We, fade away, not knowing peace I clench my fists, help the shaking cease

Raw Deal 02:12
Forced into the arms of a stranger Forsaken in this life of anger Given me a reason, a reason to fight With your...disregard for life Is this the way to live? I've given all I can give Got to live a life by my own way I want to run and be free From all the hurt that you caused me You don't know what you don't see Been given a raw deal But how am I to feel? Tearing through my head Am I better off dead? I'd love to stay But you've left me with no leeway You see you lost and I feel a gain I have to finish what I start In this life that's torn apart Can't bullshit my way though
10.
Degenerate 01:37
Perpetuate my hatred Disgust for all you do Brood in your self denial Point your finger back at you Chained by your inhibitions Drowning in solitude Oblivious to reality That you exclude Desperate for some attention A scrap of sympathy Voiceless to those around you Die out so quietly Insist on paralysis, Judgmental without a cause Stagnant empowerment Pride yourself on other peoples flaws Truth, you've got nowhere to hide You cant escape from the truth There's only hate in your mind And you're too blind, too afraid Of what you will find
11.
Drones to a system we despise Don't ask questions, never wonder why What is true is not what you've heard Mangled in deception, reality's blurred Bite the hand that feeds No purpose in life, just spread the human seed We cant escape our imminent fate No new life awaits Consuming their poison, in the air we breathe You sit back and watch their plan succeed Born without a voice, no one speaks up Never had a choice, the bodies pile up No life awaits
12.
Desolate 03:12
Nothing left to take out When it all runs out Drain the world dry No chance to survive Bait the traps for the weak Consume the power that you seek So easy when exempt from blame The cycle continues, an endless game What is the next excuse To justify power abuse Total extinction, our sealed fate No defense in a police state Ignored uproars, silenced cries Only lies, we continue to buy Civilization crumbles down Only footprints will be found Nothing left to take out When it all runs out Drain the world dry No chance to survive
