"Poisonous Shadows"
How much pain, do you need to feel.
How much shame, do you have to conceal.
There is no sunshine, just endless nights.
Nobody's there, nobody cares when you cry.
Is it my face you see?
Do I haunt you in your sleep?
On your hands and knees when you crawl
Through your nightmares.
When there's no more grace
Does your heartbeat start to race?
Crawling everywhere in the dark
Poisonous shadows.
How many secrets, do you keep inside?
How many sins, do you have to hide?
The haunting masses, have blackened the sun.
You'll pay for everything you've done
One by one.
Is it my face you see?
Do I mock you in your sleep?
On your hands and knees when you crawl
Through your nightmares.
When there's no more grace
Does your heartbeat start to race?
Crawling everywhere in the dark
Poisonous shadows.
Is it my face you see?
Do I haunt you in your sleep?
On your hands and knees when you crawl
Through your nightmares.
When there's no more grace
Does your heartbeat start to race?
Crawling everywhere in the dark
Poisonous shadows.
Is it my face you see?
Do I haunt you in your sleep?
On your hands and knees when you crawl
Through your nightmares.
When there's no more grace
Does your heartbeat start to race?
Crawling everywhere in the dark
Poisonous shadows.
(It's like I woke up and she was right there
you know, I can almost touch her
although she's been gone for years now
I can feel her
I can feel her watching me)
"Post-American World"
We see each other through different eyes
Segregating ourselves by class and size
It's me against you in everything that they do
This planet's become one big spinning disaster
If you don't like where we're going
Then you won't like what's coming next
What will we look like?
In a post American world
Why cower to all those
Who oppose the American world?
When you walk away from that which makes you strong
You only fool yourself; you only weaken your cause
There's creeping hate if you resist the false narrative
Crushing all the dissenters who still think for them selves
If you don't like where we're going
Then you won't like what's coming next
What will we look like?
In a post American world
Why cower to all those
Who oppose the American world?
"Bullet To The Brain"
No one knows what draws the moth to the flame
And nothing costs as much as playing the game
She had to know, know, know... he'd give love for sex
He had to know, know, know... she'd give sex for love
The taste, touching his tongue, sweet to his lips
Poison, now penetrating deeper
Betrayed by just one bite, for just one night
To find forbidden fruit tastes sweeter
Just like pressing a loaded gun to your head
One knows only the spider can navigate its web
She had to know, know, know... he'd get what he wants
He had to know, know, know... she'd get what she needs
Soon under the spell, emotions are high
Mind control penetrating deeper
The hex was cast on him, all he believes
Now is forbidden fruit tastes sweeter
She had to know, know, know... he'd win at the start
He had to know, know, know... she'd win in the end
His one last thought blew his mind, bullet to the brain
Hot lead was penetrating deeper
Just one reckless shot squeezed from the hand
That knows forbidden fruit tastes sweeter
"Death From Within"
The heat is raging from the rising fires of war
Embers of avarice soon begin to soar
Vengeance breeding greater vengeance, two eyes for one eye
Crowning burning hatred that’s lying deep inside
A token gift, destroyers deep within its hold
Revenge of patient men is sweet and best served cold
The enemy inside the belly of the beast
A mighty Trojan horse, tonight the sentries sleep
On the march... No place to run
Time has come... No where to hide
The moon is red... No one is safe
From spilling blood... no living thing survives
Here they fight... regretting nothing
Here you die... the walls are caving in
Nothing left... a lethal encounter
Its judgment time... when death comes from within
Warning signs ignored, they have all but been denied
Prophets and messengers, mocked and vilified
Final destination lying deep inside their court
Their first line of defense soon became their last resort
Hardened deceivers entered through their open gates
Silent trained assassins, lying still, in wait
On the march... No place to run
Time has come... No where to hide
The moon is red... No one is safe
From spilling blood... no living thing survives
Here they fight... regretting nothing
Here you die... the walls are caving in
Nothing left... a lethal encounter
Its judgment time... when death comes from within
Death from within...
"Fatal Illusion"
Lost inside the system, locked away without a key
No one will ever miss a menace to society
A gross lack of potential, bad decisions made in spite
A touchy hairpin trigger and such a wasted life
Trying to break the mold of a broken family
Fight against your failure, and living on his knees
Guilty of a crime of nonconformity
A hanging judge and jury handing down the penalty
A lethal injection, now they watch the body jerk
Exterminate the problem, except it didn't work
No vital sign of life, they declared it wasn't there
Coroner never checked, because he didn't fucking care
Passing off the body, they all believe he died
Starting up the hearse, now for a final drive
Like whistling past a graveyard, when walking by at night
It's a fatal illusion to think that evil never dies
In a darkened mortuary, reeking of formaldehyde
Aroused from deadly slumber, something opened up his eyes
Spilling all their blood was a promise that he'd keep
Hate so strong revived him from a deep necrotic sleep
Clawing away the casket lid until his fingers bleed
He grabbed a knife and set out on a vivisection spree
A butcher, hell bent, massacring each one with his blade
From the first one to the last, he dispatched them to the grave
It's a fatal illusion...
Evil never dies
It never dies
"Dystopia"
"What you don't know" the legend goes "can't hurt you"
If you only want to live and die in fear
They tell us to believe just half of what we see
And absolutely nothing that we hear
Resist the twist the truth no matter what the cost
Supplant the rights with wrongs inside our heads
Outlawing all the questions to the answers
That no one likes when someone winds up dead
Dystopia [x4]
"What you don't know" the legend goes "can't hurt you"
If you only want to live and die in a cage
There's panic and there's chaos, rampant in the streets
Where useless thoughts of peace are met with rage
Demoralize and overmastered people think
The quickest way to end a war is lose
Dictatorship ends with tyrannicide
You must destroy the cancer at it's root
Dystopia [x4]
"The Threat Is Real"
Justified obliteration, no one cares anymore
The Messiah or mass murderer
No controlling who comes through the door
A culture made of cover-ups
Will leprosy touch their flesh?
For backroom meetings and rendezvous
The vultures have come home to nest
The clock runs out, the weakest link
A deadly strike, the threat is real!
See the burnished images of
A crest fallen agency
Violent conditioning, caused the nature of the enemy
Your terminal lack of vision
Blinded eyes see no light
A chronic lack of perspective
Their cancer now eats us alive
A fatal shot, a lust for blood
The final act, the threat is real!
Justified obliteration, no one cares anymore
The Messiah or mass murderer
No controlling who comes through the door
A culture made of cover-ups
Will leprosy touch their flesh?
For backroom meetings and rendezvous
The vultures have come home to nest
The clock runs out, the weakest link
A deadly strike, the threat is real!
A fatal shot, a lust for blood
The final act, the threat is real!
