X to the Power of Ten

A bright scanning light of an eavesdropping camera eye Human legible flesh, Pre-emptive justice takes us to a darker age Verification of biometric information, Recording the slices of life, observing the traces of minds protection is a word used for fear Enter the age of treason Drowned by the flood of their lies A two coloured bunch of reasons Protective pureness, the judge to justify Justify the absurdness of life through a lens Caught by the camera’s eye Where do we go from here? The cleric knows your name Prepared to kiss the mouth of madness again Hollow bodies and sunken smiles Preventive surveillance, invisible eyes Recording the slices of life, observing the traces of minds protection is a word used for fear Enter the age of treason Drowned by the flood of their lies A two coloured bunch of reasons Protective pureness, the judge to justify Like a hollow portrait in their frame Just like a pulsing spot on their radar display Hollow bodies and sunken smiles Preventive surveillance, invisible eyes Recording the slices of life, observing the traces of minds protection is a word used for fear Enter the age of treason Drowned by the flood of their lies A two coloured bunch of reasons Protective pureness, the judge to justify

Since the beginning there has always been a need To control all you primitive fools The wise men roll the dice - the dumb heads pay the price Destined to struggle and serve I can remember the days When I felt my gift and my powers to rise NoW I am the shepherd - you are my lambs I am "the powers that be" Kneel down, unleash my power A new light through darkest night Water the withered flower Left there to bleed and wonder Welcome to my side of the tree Cash in on the knowledge I gained from the screen Send me an ordinary man I'll make him feel godlike - as I am Faith is the lie you're all living for I canot leave my ways behind You stay within your imaginary world You're safe but I won't keep you warm I rip you off - lead you astray Erase all your memories and thoughts Then I'll destroy what I once created And no one recalls your name Kneel down, unleash my power A new light through darkest night Water the withered flower Left there to bleed and wonder Welcome to my side of the tree Cash in on the knowledge I gained from the screen Send me an ordinary man I'll make him feel godlike - as I am Step into my world Leave your doubts behind Ignorance within, a requiem for you elegies are to be sung Nailed on a cross, sacred in despair I'm your reason to exist Kneel down, unleash my power A new light through darkest night Water the withered flower Left there to bleed and wonder Welcome to my side of the tree Cash in on the knowledge I gained from the screen Send me an ordinary man I'll make him feel godlike - as I am My will be done!

This track is instrumental.

Is this song not instrumental?

Like a brush in hand, painting perfect pics Of the perfect child, of what we would like to be The vision is clear, a new way to complete Selling, unrestrained Complying with their wishes in the shopping list Splitting society into the gene-richs and the poor have-nots Redesigning humans Forged by scientists and madmen Lead the superficial to an art A way to Neverland How can we listen to their lies? Genetically paralyzed Enhanced and compromised (They’re) selling them "Brave New Men inside" to be strong Terrorizing rules, men used as mere tools Altering DNA, create disease-free fools Lifting their hopes to a withered plain Many deeds have been pattered out in vain They're excused Helpless as we stand, enough reasons to be concerned Beneath the bridge of sighs Redesigning humans Forged by scientists and madmen Lead the superficial to an art A way to Neverland How can we listen to their lies? Genetically paralyzed Enhanced and compromised (They're) selling them "Brave New Men inside" to be strong Waiting for the day to wash diminishing sins away Wondering if we could ever be another sense of change The past, the present - no one's future's told How can we listen to their lies? Genetically paralyzed Enhanced and compromised (They're) selling them "Brave New Men inside" to be strong "We have begun to play God in so many intimate realms of life that we could not turn back, even if we tried"

A broken edged infinity Disenchanted by another Point of uncertainty Does it taste like the end? On the edge of primacy Searching for the answers To reveal the grieving stand It feels like I drift off again Feel the cold of the nameless yearning On the way to a place I've never seen In the dark of unknowing solace Guided by the sorrowed man deep inside of me I've drowned myself in the black grief I'm blinded by blessing lies I'm drifting on remembrance in pale shades Maybe I've gone too far to keep all these questions in memory A gleam of possibilities The deconstructed loathing wonder Somewhere in my past I saw the man with an empty soul Slave to the weight of self-perception A reflection of the question keeper Mesmerized by an endless circle Looking for any reason to doubt The freezing cold of an isolation Stare into unfathomable eyes I've drowned myself in the black grief I'm blinded by blessing lies I'm drifting on remembrance in pale shades Maybe I've gone too far to keep all these questions in memory Burn out the years, forgive yourself Reflection of a fragile cell It doesn‘t matter who you are Feeding the force to fall apart I've drowned myself in the black grief I'm blinded by blessing lies I'm drifting on remembrance in pale shades Maybe I've gone too far to keep all these questions in memory

Trapped inside a broken world Personality left beside like a curse A login to the missing link Consciousness fades, begins to shrink Welcome to my second me / Another virtual place to be Nothing's changed in here, the pain remains the same I'm sick of you, residents, disguising is to blame Play mad, never speak Creating synaptogenesis Scrape the pain off the blinded I'm about to place my digital suicide bomb Synapses interact with avatars Plugged to the client software bar As I'm pleading to my stars The script's compiling, time to start Via ethernet they'll bleed / Sickness brought by upload streams Reality is locked inside, about a million's there Collapsing neurons should be a memorable heir Play mad, never speak Creating synaptogenesis Scrape the pain off the blinded I'm about to place my digital suicide bomb I am here, I am waiting Controlled by fear - my whole life Some people say that's the way But I'm so tired of fighting my real life I survived in war within fragments waking up, waking from my sleep Observating, analyzing, access permitted, eradicating Can you feel my presence? Malware protocols recirculate Pandemic measures to take place Splintered visions of the past Fractal memories at last The "Age Play" by perverted minds / Another e-tripping device Infected network spaces, corrupted source code files Critical failures caused by a self-sacrifice Play mad, never speak Creating synaptogenesis Scrape the pain off the blinded I'm about to place my digital suicide bomb

A worn out world, the moon leaves the sky Below zero, closer than you realize It's not the product of your imagination Dark clouds enshroud the fading sun But still we smile, its progress has no limit Mankind, like a parasite, squeezing Gaia Suffering from sins of yesterday Plotting a new learning curve A few minutes left for the last warning Cry for the withered leafs Pollutionized - the broken ray unclean Swims through minds of a human breed We're claiming the pride of creation Swallowed in perpetual streams Driven by requestions, impatient and absurd Despoiling in the face of mother earth Strange ambitions of the deaf and blind Insensitive for tomorrow's signs But still we smile, its progress has no limit Mankind, like a parasite, squeezing Gaia Suffering from sins of yesterday Plotting a new learning curve A few minutes left for the last warning Cry for the withered leafs Suffering from sins of yesterday Plotting a new learning curve A few minutes left for the last warning Water the barren tree

I'm losing all, all I've gathered I've longed for some golden wings My thoughts and plans left shape, 'Cause I've taken all for granted I saw my reflection in some broken dreams Along the narrow path of truth I'm standing here on my shore There is nothing more Than breathing tension and rage In a perfect cage Losing faith once again And finally at the end of the day I realized myself Another broken shell kept me away from falling Deflowered by the truth A leap in the dark, badly abused And through all the storms inside me Sinking ships of aspiration A gently tearing dowm uf sightings This behaviour becomes frightening The sociopath, the king for a lifetime Disordered thoughts whirling around me Overwhelming, swaying, pounding I'm standing here on my shore There is nothing more Than breathing tension and rage In a perfect cage Losing faith once again And finally at the end of the day I realized myself Another broken shell kept me away from falling

Stucked in a place, where the calm surrounds me Electroconvulsive caresses, what a pleasant apathy Swim through the liquid boundaries I swallowed all the pills, but your image never faded They've tried to tame the beast and I've missed you through all the ages As the Gemini rises The needle plunges deep Into my cerebral cortex And leaves me breathless Torn in two, my soul so ambiguous and cruel Medicate and sedate Diminishing the sane Catatonic misbehaviour, frayed by mental spires Domestication, exhibited isolation We've left hundreds of murdered souls behind Break all the chains that bound me Torn in two, my soul so ambiguous and cruel Medicate and sedate Diminishing the sane Wade through the liquid boundaries Drop all the chains that bound me In the quietniess of these silent walls Schizophrenic echoes of a celestial call I hope to meet you at the crossroad of the neural pathways But the needle leaves me helpless Torn in two, my soul so ambiguous and cruel Medicate and sedate Diminishing the sane Don't fear my power games, I'm just insane... ...and a part of you

I'm just a blink of an eye in history Mesmerized from deep inside Just a need to recognize the misery Of an unintended experience The epitaph for myself Got hurt by the promise of salvation Breathing in silence Am I here to fear, at last A product of the past The victim of my sadness Now I struggle to forget I'm left with nothing more than pain The price I have to pay Inhale the hope and grow Through the art of being alone Everything seemed to make sense a little while I should have turned, once long ago Eyes cold as ice, chase the shadows from within Demoralized, deep inside An epigram for myself Composed by the lack of upcoming changes Of different places Am I here to fear, at last A product of the past The victim of my sadness Now I struggle to forget I'm left with nothing more than pain The price I have to pay Inhale the hope and grow Through the art of being alone I'm tumbling like a stone, crumbling away I'm fading through a haze, without leaving a trace Am I here to fear, at last A product of the past The victim of my sadness Now I struggle to forget I'm left with nothing more than pain The price I have to pay Inhale the hope and grow Through the art of being alone

I can see no future in here If we keep acting like avengers To reach the darkest place within unspeakable memories I turn my head towards the sky Stare through eyes, so open wide And every morning we still long for the dusk to come Don't look at me When your world is tumbling down I still have the power to think, to sense and to create The seeds of the plague Decomposed to comprehend You can lie to yourself and deny again Being framed in a shape, it doesn't even fit Outlineless faces, careless Pay, 'cause your mind has fallen astray Holy words, commercial breaks Selling prayers along with home devices With credit cards to pay (Pay) for the wars, become blood stained Two way mirror, legal haze Left wracked and ruined To reach the point where anything's misled Don't point at me While all your dreams are dying I still have the will to think, to sense and to create The seeds of the plague Decomposed to comprehend You can lie to yourself and deny again Being framed in a shape, it doesn't even fit Outlineless faces, careless Amazed by what we see Cunning visions on big widescreens Commercial reptiles are hunting me Biting at me, poisoning at me Don't stare at me I'm not afraid I still have the will to think, to sense and to create The seeds of the plague Decomposed to comprehend You can lie to yourself and deny again Being framed in a shape, it doesn't even fit Outlineless faces, careless How should we heal these wounds that don't bleed While they're sowing seeds of the plaque
