Dark inside - Walls all around me Trapping the hatred within Crumbling flesh gives me power to rise As the weight of the world crushes thin Choking - Paralyzed Drown in your wages of sin What was innocent? Corrosion and descent You borrowed - Nothing spent Illusion - Misdirect You're dying on the vine You're malice well defined Nothing left behind You broke the ties that bind Burn alive - Never forgive Devil inside, make me new Approaching your fate Condemned to a future Accept it when it comes to you When it comes to you To live in this cage Dark inside - Walls all around me Trapping the hatred within Crumbling flesh gives me power to rise As the weight of the world crushes thin Word as law - Callous and empty Corroded and vicious and vain Insatiable hunger - Living a lie A life in unbreakable chains

Suicidal visions Jagged torn incisions Separate divisions Arise Paranoid delusions With violent solutions And deviant perversions Demise All I see Only for a moment, but it's still haunting me Broken and battered and bruised to the bone Ripping and clawing, I travel alone Seeing the future, prepare for the end Unclean in nature, your wounds will never mend Suicidal visions Jagged torn incisions Separate divisions Arise Mutinous defiance Treasonous alliance Your hell is my reliance Demise Just let go We'll meet again tomorrow, but you will never know Save all your sorries, they don't mean a thing To late for redemption or what it will bring Watch what you say, it's a hazardous road Save ammunition, you're a long long way from home Suicidal visions Jagged torn incisions A well thought out decision Arise Mutinous defiance Treasonous alliance Your hell is my reliance Demise

Duplicate, oblivious, make believe again A transparent shell is all that is left in the end Expendable, worthless is all you'll ever be Not me, not buying what you sell Not me, believing what you tell Fake, fraud You never will possess You're empty inside and fake just like all of the rest So take, take, take all you can hold You're left with nothing because you are bought and you're sold Shallow, living in a dream Hollow, with no idea what it means to be alive To bleed inside The darkness that we ride We ride Cry, moan Convince them it's your own Can't think for yourself I know that you're just a clone Illusion, not real A snake that eats its tail Soon it will end, I'll enjoy when you finally fail Shallow, living in a dream Hollow, with no idea what it means to be alive To bleed inside

You think you know what it's like to be alive? Well, you've never lived a day Ever been so close to death? Ever feel it coming, the taste of your last breath? Ever seen the midnight sky? Ever think it'd be your last? Burning fast Ever roll your eyes at the bells of morning mass? Come with me - Walk the razor's line Wounds look healed, but they're bleeding all the time Follow me down - All light fades away Open your eyes Face yourself - A ​new world starts today I tell myself that I think I can't go on So I think I'll temp my fate For so many years Ever pray to a god you swore in blood to hate? If you see me crawling, just walk on by What a waste As the morning light burns bright upon my face I carry on 'cause it just don't mean a thing A new day's dawning Life goes by so fast Feeding desire Ignoring the past We'll never know The first might be the last

Apathy will never cease No return - No release Torn apart piece by piece Black - Your abyss Let it be your dichotomy Turning back the sands of time Looking back you'll never find Void of thought Pain of mind Wait to see who'll be dying at your feet Who's dying at your feet? Doesn't matter what they do or what they say 'Cause you've always found a place to run away Coagulation, never finish, never start As you drive another spike in your pretty little heart Apathy will never cease No return, no release Torn apart piece by fucking piece See all these moments Black and white Twisting like a knife I sold my soul to get my turn And I'm gonna love to watch you burn

Cold eyes - Beyond belief The blank stare of a common thief No heart - So don't try Save your words - They don't apply You want to be something you're not It's how you earn, not what you've got I'd rather be hated for what I am Than to be loved for what I'm not For what I'm not For what I'm not So play dead - Bide your time Ride the fence or walk your line A war cry - For a losing cause Has been - Never was Never say it again 'cause I won't listen Never a means to an end - I won't listen Never say it again - I won't listen Never a means to an end - I won't listen 'Cause I don't care anymore, guilt admission 'Cause I don't care anymore, guilt admission 'Cause I don't care anymore

It's nothing to watch you rot from within - So let it begin Feel nothing for you, my brother in sin - I'm drinking it in Gaining distinction by terrible means, or so it seems That the same tie that binds us, leads us unseen We're never redeemed Take me All this Never coexist Remiss Cold and ravenous Scratching the surface so much it bleeds - Down on your knees Lawless ambition, no gods to appease - I so as I please We do all things that you talk about, without a doubt It's never that easy as you're finding out Cut your own throat Take me All this Growing impetus Remiss Cold and ravenous Hate me Sweet bliss Cold and ravenous I preach to no one that's waiting in line I'm not the voice of the many senseless bovine I carry on as it multiplies Lambs to the slaughter - I despise I see the world through the devil's eyes The window to my soul - Covered with flies So grovel and beg, you weak human being - Wiping it clean Interchangeable parts in a broken machine You're all the fucking same thing

Hangman, why are we so cold? The burning desire to have what we can't hold Changing direction, hangman can't you see? We hate for a reason We sharpen our teeth Strength and conviction Heaven beneath I've been forced to be Return what's given to me Hangman, they're all crying at your feet In circles of fire, serpents of deceit No admiration for what I have lost In the absence of reason I carry this cross Carry this cross In the sky I spit this venom In your path of jaded wisdom Now, hangman I see It's you, it's me The midnight sun We are legion - We are one Hangman, why are you so cold? The burning desire to have what we can't hold Hangman, they're all dying at your feet In circles of fire, the serpents of deceit We hate for a reason We sharpen our teeth Strength and conviction Heaven beneath

Life's blood Life's blood Your holy pride March on Christian soldier, I've already chosen my side Under a bleeding sky, a million unheard cries Soulless and empty eyes Search for truth in lies And pray for salvation at the gates of annihilation But you're running out of time - You're running out of time 'Cause we creep and we crawl and we kill in the night Hiding in plain sight, drooling for a fight Ignite A view of things of things to be Violent energy Sign of things to come The battle has begun Under a velvet sky, a million unheard cries Your savior suicide Keep running for salvation in this sick and twisted nation You aged hypocrite You aged hypocrite You live your life down on your knees There for all to see We crush our enemies Drive them to the sea Crush your enemies This is our life's blood

Set me free as I rise from ashes Confined in a cell with undead masses Escape from my prison six feet beneath I dug with my hands - Cut with my teeth Life Death Rise again Resurrection Shut your mouth, you don't know what this hell is Inhaling the filth and poison gases I lived in these shadows for so many years Swallowing pride, drinking my tears But now, I've come to see The evil is finally free It's killing me Opening up with the key Opening up with the key Life Death Rise again Resurrection The crucifixion has left its mark Running from life - Impaled by the dark But now, you know there's things far worse than death

Life's slaughter Your last breath Take all the things that we have left No honor Fist in the sky Crumbling down - no wonder why That father time has abandoned us Leave behind your incubus An empty threat A line in the sand Your scorched and ugly promised land It dies It dies Nightfall Darkest day No place to turn Can't run away God's child - Favorite son Can't undo what has been done Look within Hate the most Exorcise this holy ghost Can't escape this living hell We go where only spirits dwell The light There's no light It's hell on earth We no longer thrive We fight to survive No path to righteousness No resist Necropolis calling It's hell on earth Crawl Beg for this forgiveness As cities are falling It's hell on earth Life's slaughter Your last breath Take all the things that we have left No honor Fist in the sky Crumbling down - no wonder why That father time has abandoned us Leave behind your incubus An empty threat A line in the sand Your scorched and ugly promised land It dies It dies It's hell on earth It's hell on earth It's hell on earth
