Capgras 01:57
This substitution Is no delusion A replication No longer emotion You march like clockwork machines Fake waxwork figurines Sticking to a prescribed routine I am your vaccine This substitution Safety in the habitual habit The monotonous And mundane I know its all a lie Time distorted by the missing years Incarcerated by wheels and gears Encapsulated by sphericity No longer a grip on reality You are not who I once knew You’ve been replaced by something new The summation of all I’ve feared The ones I’ve loved have disappeared

Black Lines 01:53
He’s been tracing lives on paper Dilated, privated Left dazed and on the floor Dilated, privated Now that she’s gone Another sign of weakness Another shot through the vein Black lines on white paper The only thing that does remain Dilated, privated Left dazed and on the floor Dilated, privated Now that she’s gone He’s been tracing lives on paper Trying to learn from all the lines Another sign of weakness Another shot through the vein Black lines on white paper The only thing that does remain A harlot on the road Leaving a broken man Left lying desperately Wondering about his life A harlot on the road Leaving a broken man Left lying desperately Wondering about her life

Locust 02:21
Welcome to the promised land Where a gun is placed into your hands Let the blood run thick through the sand It’s time to make your stand against every woman and man Cut off the heads of the infidels Let blood spill over their entrails Like ink over written page Used to spread the word of a new age Your so called salvation Will be the damnation Of your falsely created nation Built upon burning foundations Their serpent tongue of lies Veiled behind masks they hide In heaven there is no relief Just a hole in the ground, your bodies buried deep And for infecting lives with hatred and grief I pray the earth your soul to keep Their serpent tongue of lies Veiled behind masks they hide Upon the bones of the innocent, they have laid Laid down the roots for their temple of decay

Tainted 02:25
This is genocide A captivating spiral Descends mankind to the grave The purity of the tainted Born only to be our slaves A new age of extinction Birthed from the unborn A new age of humanity Extinction of the natural born Infanticide You try to hide But gods no longer on your side For this is genocide Of mankind Our nature can be undone Your life is ours to mend Just look at what we have become God's among mortal men Our nature can be undone Your life is ours to mend Just look at what we have become God's among mortal men Infanticide You try to hide But gods no longer on your side For this is genocide Of mankind Week and worthless Evolutions last action We manipulate to create Nature's final adaption Genetic mutations give rise to intolerance Pre-determined without your consent Pre-destined to be content Pre-determined without your consent Your purpose supplied for your convenience

Hours wasted fading like the colour from my face Hours waiting on the precipice of eternity Ticking hands force me closer to an empty space Shattering all sense of reality Lost in this spectral gaze I let it all fade away Within this common malaise I’m left to slowly decay A depiction of infinity Encapsulated in sphericity Within this lies the reality That the hands will stop eventually The malice of time Begins to seal my fate To be laid beneath the dirt In a mire of waste Like an eye to my soul Seconds begin to take hold Grinding my life to an end Slowly below I descend A relentless pulsating sonic disruption Fuels a festering insomnia Hours wasted fading like the colour from my face Hours waiting on the precipice of eternity Ticking hands force me closer to an empty space Shattering all sense of reality A relentless pulsating sonic disruption Fuels a festering insomnia

Hollow 02:36
Cast before the eyes of the blind In chains from your closed mind Knowing only a shadow of reality Break free from your naive mentality We are all slaves to the hollow Imprisoned by the masters you follow Coerced into intolerance Chastised for the sins of the ignorant A price unfit for the innocent Believed to be incompetent Blinded by their resentment Left cold from abandonment Resentment They claim to be god, gaining omniscience Self-justification, claiming omnipotence Such is the irony of the fallible Believing that the shrines they build are inflammable The ignorance of the blind Will leave us all as cynics A price unfit for the innocent To be blinded by their resentment We are all slaves to the hollow Imprisoned by the masters you follow Cast before the eyes of the blind In chains from your closed mind Knowing only a shadow of reality

Escape 02:10
Twisted feelings of ill repair No hope is left for us here Shadows paint a sickly picture Death has led to this despair The dead once again will roam the earth As from their graves they have arose To tear the flesh from our bones And begin anew mankind’s rebirth Counting down to our demise I see the fear grow in her eyes It lingers in the rotten air This is the last moment we will share When devils take men’s only sons And morality has come undone The shadows will surely come And whisper with their twisted tongues A clatter as her weapon falls I’m alive because she stalled Alone amidst a pool of red We were both meant to be left for dead Twisted feelings of ill repair No hope is left for us here For shadows paint a sickly picture Death has led to this despair As I draw the chamber on myself I hear a cry from down the hall Her father dazed and on his way I hear the abyss begin to call When devils take men’s only sons And morality has come undone The shadows will surely come And whisper with their twisted tongues Yet before I seal my fate Her father shows, eyes filled with hate He knocks away my means of escape Not ending my life was my last mistake For taking away my loved one Your suffering has just begun You’d wish you’d drawn your last breath For my plan for you is worse than death

Mantis 01:37
An empty womb left barren and bare So she lures them in when she sees them stare So she waits And she baits For the seed to grow To replace what’s down below A small lie As she dies On the inside Numbing the pain by getting high Why can’t she find the one she needs? She’s lying there desperately It’s time for her to feed As this time it will surely succeed So she waits And she baits For the seed to grow To replace what’s down below A small lie As she dies On the inside Numbing the pain by getting high Why can’t she find the one she needs? She’s lying there desperately It’s time for her to feed As this time it will surely succeed

Liberty 01:52
The Lady liberty is no longer free Tied by the chains of your inequality Can you justify your pride? In the rules by which you abide Cast down from financial elite While you pick pennies off the street You can’t run and hide I’m afraid it’s too late Because justice is blind To the actions of the state America now represents A land for the one percent You can’t run and hide I’m afraid it’s too late Because justice is blind To the actions of the state They are the sons of the privileged Campaigns brought by big business Glory, glory to those of lineage Who set the rules for their kindred Supposedly we are free So why can’t they let us be? Can we say what we want? About these intrusive cunts Supposedly we are free So why can’t they let us be? Can we say what we want? About these intrusive cunts America now represents A land for the one percent

Uranophobia 02:39
Her every move Causes ripples flowing overhead From the sheets that weave down From her bed And she lays there bare Eyes glazed with an empty stare Hands settling upon her breast A signal to take all she has left Her sacrifice Reflective of your own A gift for sins You have atoned Yet her beauty Is merely lies The truth is that Shes dead inside Quod caelum sit in inferno, Heaven is hell Quod infernum sit in aeternum, Hell is eternal Quod caelum sit in inferno, Heaven is hell Quod infernum sit in aeternum, Hell is eternal Fade in the silhouettes of dancing children Surrounding the drapes and the alter your given Their laughter growing ever distant As the life drains out from the living As the laugher begins to fade All thats left is endless pain She begins to cry out in vain As we watch the childrens innocence being slain Quod caelum sit in inferno, Heaven is hell Quod infernum sit in aeternum, Hell is eternal Quod caelum sit in inferno, Heaven is hell Quod infernum sit in aeternum, Hell is eternal A product sold for the price of innocence Striving for perfection has led to this For when we lust for ascension to heaven It often leads to antithesis This sacrifice is often willing And for this you should not be forgiven
