Burn for nothing
No friend of mine
I don't think anyone
can see me through my eyes
I'm like anyone
Saying lies
Awaiting for a chance
And deep inside my mind burns
Like living with dwelling demons
How do you treat others
When you're all alone
With your counsciousness
How do you treat all the rest
Just for not, not being yourself
Do you think ill of them?
And enjoy your hate?
Do you measure others
As you do yourself?
What would you say you deserve?
Trapped in this mind
Trapped in this soul
Blind to our raven
Blind to our faults
Try to be fair
Try to be strong
We'll see no heaven above
At all
No
We are not good lads
Won't you face your lies
Take off your disguise
Falter
Seeking help
Amnesty

Autonomous

Don't you ever feel
That you're castaway
That a normal life
Will only lead to suffering
Do you not feel sick
When they say you're free
While they dedicate their lives
To cover you in chains
If you're dying tonight
Would you be satisfied?
Would you say you stood up straight
Or did you stand in line?
Would you dare to say
That you understand
How we ended up believing
That's not sick how we behave
Facing all the darkness of this world
And I don't know where I belong
Searching through the darkness of my soul
And I don't know where I belong
I don't, oh I don't
But I know, but I know... where I don't
Do you have to wait
For authorization
To treat your pain
To own a house
Or do your life
Tell me how it feels
When somebody's telling you
What to think, what to eat
What to hope as a love
And how you should feel
Do you think it's fair?
Should we ask no questions?
When they lie, when they steal
When they tell all the people
The kind of life they should be making
Under control
Stay alive, stay awake
Autonomous
Stay alive and awake
Till the end

Vengeance

I've seen you in my dreams lately
I really wish it wasn't like this
Your mere sight brings everything back
It seems I just cannot escape
And a closure is needed
I moved away
I tried to forget
But you kept pushing me
I'm left with no more options
I want to hear you screaming
Wishing your death
I'll never stop until I get you
I think I'm ready now
It's time for payback
I have just found your house
It took me less than thought
I've got you dead to rights
I know your work
And know your times
I know what you got
And what you lack
The walls are thin
And people talk
I never thought evil was so easy
Wait for me
We'll meet at our end
Hello, victim
It's been some time
I can tell that you feel surprised
Feeling sleepy?
You wonder why
Wait till you wake up
Welcome back
Tied
In the basement
Now the time
Has come for you to grow cold
Don't you dare closing your eyes
I want you to watch, watch, watch
Here goes your first limb out
Gone
The nightmare is gone
It is gone
The nightmare is gone

Ultimate Desire
06:18

Run away
From the madness
Your fire
Grows inside
Find a way
Through the sadness
You'll die
Leave here naked
Sailing through your own hell
Searching for the light
(The path to consciousness is full of traps
Will you succeed? Or will you fail like most?)
(Listen to no-one, don't listen to no-one, don't listen to)
(Listen to no-one, don't listen to no-one, don't listen no)
Leave me alone
Stop telling me what to do
Let me make my choices
Shut up
Shut up!
I won't let you run my life
I'll be my own master
I'll make my own fate
Burn your soul
See your flaws
Heal your wounds
Change it all
Being whole
Your goal
We're trapped in a world
We make for our own
It's made of the lies
Lies we're taught
We're lost and alone
Still we can evolve
If we really wanted
Lead can turn into gold
Inside your fire's burning
The one that tells no lies
You have to keep on searching
The ultimate desire
Above this world of madness
Above your hellish life
The peace of mind will come to you
The ultimate desire

Onslaught
05:59

A morning of blackness
When hope has fled from your life
My father, my brethren
Have been sent to the depths of hell
It's human beings
The greatest plague
Coping with the anger
Carving my soul
There's a rat and I know who
I'll go alone
Not for you
Not for anyone
Not for anyone but myself
Up in the mountain
Lives the traitor
Up in the mountain
He'll be found
Up in the mountain
He'll meet his end
Nothing's saving his sorry ass
I want his life
I want his life
Kill him with my hands
Taken by the powers of hell
Power of vengeance
Pleasure of mine
How could a sin make me feel so alive?
Maybe it's madness
Still I remind
Eye for an eye is the way of mankind
Power of vengeance
Pleasure of mine
Onslaught of justice
In my hands
Maybe it's madness
Still I attack
I feel no regrets
For this blood
That is drying

Meander
05:03

Life is hard
It hurts...
Seeking shelter
Life plays with us
Leaving hollowness inside
I know the penance
I know the penance
I know the penance
Of being afraid
I know the venom
I know the venom
I know the venom
In my mind
Learning
Building patience
Knowing better
To meander
Through myself
There's a strength
That lies in me
Helps me stand
On my feet
The fight is the goal
The fight is the goal
The sorrow will leave if you're strong
Keep fighting, you're strong
Keep fighting, you're strong

Of All Time

God's no institution
Nor is it a guild
Offering salvation
Through the murder and the guilt
Always finding outcasts
To be set on fire
Always speaking on behalf
Of who cannot deny them
As we changed it all
Love was pushed away
Then it all was lost
Crowning our greed
Hatred
Unending sorrow
Negative thinking
Into your soul
Why not
Teach us the right things?
Knowledge is power
They love us not
Say, do you know
Why we're born?
Just to die?
Why did we come to this world?
Did you know
Freedom's not
To be found
On the outside
Facing all your demons
Not an easy task
But if not faced
They will kill you from behind
Thinking negative
Picking up a fight
Always finding ways
To be self justified
We're not always right
And we all know
We're the finest machine
Working so wrong
Noone ever taught us
How to be strong
How to stop the suffering
The useless oneh
Reach out for knowledge
Reach out for life
The greatest of fights
Of all time
On your own
Face yourself
On your own
Taking your chances
On your own
Challenges
On your own
On your own or nothing

Them
05:57
|

Dark skies
Hanging, grey and black above your head and land
As you fail to lift a weight too great to bear
Then you fall down
Living lives that somebody designed
Mind you way and hold the line there
Don't you dare disobey the law that they made for all but for them
All rise to anger
To darkness in your minds
No-one lift your veils
Holding onto your obsessive pride
Pretending to be free
You shall live your lives in passion
Caring only for your sorry bitter ass
Senseless hatred all around
There's no thinking
There's no time
Polishing the mask you wear
To conceal your rotten face
Rotten face
Lifeless stare
Living dead
Living the madness
In relationships
Living the madness
How we value things
Living the madness
We con and lie
Living the madness
So numb and blind
Living the madness
We're losing ourselves
Living the madness
Till the end
Madness always comes
Before the dawn
Or the fall
The end of times
Seem so close
No man left

How, how to belong?
When all the rules are wrong
Now I've come across
Some answers of my own
How 'bout you?
Have you defied
The linings of your brethren?
How we should see?
Don't you feel somewhere inside
That some things make no sense?
How do you think?
Why do you lie?
How do you fake?
Why do you try?
What's your belief?
What do you trust?
Have you considered this?
Seems like a nightmare
Nigtmare
What if all your thinking
Was planted by someone
What if your values are imposed
And are a chore
And all you've learnt, all you know
Is nothing but a hoax
Power relies on decieving and frightening
Don't take my word, check it out for yourself
If you're willing to see what's behind of the courtain
You will see how conditioned we are
As we're driven insane by anonymous darkness
Who's deciding how to educate us all?
If you were them would you give me the tool
That would lead to your doom?
Some will say there's no tomorrow
Some will say the end has come
Don't surrender to your sorrow
Grow ideas of your own
Think it for yourself
For the first time
What did they tell you?
And how did they tell you?
Did you believe it?
Or did you consider that it could be lies?
And did you consider that all of the teachings
That you've been receiving
They all could be lies?
Our life is our perception
Our mind is where we live
We're lacking information
How to seek for a way to be free
Live the now, not the past or the future
Know the fact, that you're not always right
Being wrong is not bad, is learning
Once you get rid of this burden
