Carcinogenesis

Anaesthesia with a chemical reaction Your reflection is a stranger that you don't respect Fill an empty head with momentary distractions A heavy burden around your neck Now bear the weight A perception through hatred The corruption of all we hold sacred Malediction and avarice All hail carcinogenesis A likeness no longer Bears resemblance to the faces of our fathers Face to face with our nеmesis All hail carcinogenesis And so wе fall Purge an empty heart Spiritual castration Cleanse this empty soul Synthetic elation Medications are no longer taking their effect Synesthesia now revealing only shades of grey Degradation of a mindset that cannot reflect Our intentions ever stranger with each passing day We count down seconds awaiting the end We wander alone in the dark Broken, frayed rope worn down to the thread Into the dark A perception through hatred The corruption of all we hold sacred Malediction and avarice All hail carcinogenesis A likeness no longer Bears resemblance to the faces of our fathers Face to face with our nemesis All hail carcinogenesis A heavy burden around your neck Now bear the weight Call out into the void With nothing left to dread We cried until we choked We scratched until we bled Until we bled Over and over it comes Bringing the animal out of us, we cannot run away Facing our nemesis, carcinogenesis Over and over it comes Over and over it's killing morality Cleansing humanity, carcinogenesis Over and over it is Cleansing humanity, carcinogenesis

[Intro] A legion shall arise [Verse] A second sun has risen Encase the earth in a fiery prison The weeping world shall reap The fruits of her dark secrets bequeathed [Pre-Chorus] Calling out from the dark Bring forth the ancient arc Behind her blackest eyes Unquenching thirst for blood [Chorus] A legion shall arise Commiseration as the tyrant sings On the horizon, rats with wings A world now in disarray A kingdom imprisoned Desecration at the hands of kings The skies shall darken Rats with wings [Post-Chorus] The river like a snake The waters black with tar Feeding the king who dwells in the lake Her womb shall spring forth To bring eternal darkness Unquenching thirst for blood Her womb shall spring forth An endless horde of minions A living cataclysm [Refrain] Calling out from the dark Bring forth the ancient arc Behind her blackest eyes Unquenching thirst for blood [Bridge] Pain is irrelevant When you're about to die In this wasteland all shall rot Skies shall darken Rats with wings [Chorus] A legion shall arise Commiseration as the tyrant sings On the horizon, rats with wings A world now in disarray A kingdom imprisoned Desecration at the hands of kings The skies shall darken Rats with wings

[Verse 1] The wailings of the matriarch The hollow words of the patriot By violent means of sorcery The perfect weapon on the enemy Runes now carved in bones Stained with the blood of kings A tale of souls forsaken A warning to all things [Pre-Chorus] Peel layers of skin back Only to reveal the true monster The layers of skin retract Descend into the black [Chorus] How did we ever get so cold? Survive and suffer and save yourself Alone Only thе strong [Post-Chorus] You don't want it But you need it You won't face it But you'll feed it Pain [Verse 2] The teachings of thе elder ones Manipulation in their influence Defile the weak with butchery There's no escape from the savagery Wounds lay open and bare The stench defiles the night The writhing of the maggots The swarming of the flies [Pre-Chorus] Peel layers of skin back Only to reveal the true monster (Monster) The layers of skin retract Descend into the black [Chorus] How did we ever get so cold? Survive and suffer and save yourself Alone Only the strong How did we ever get so cold? Survive and suffer and save yourself Alone Only the strong [Bridge] Why would you ask for help When you can't save yourself? Counting down the days of your life Walking a path on the edge of a knife [Outro] Pain, face yourself Pain, save yourself Pain, you don't want it But you need it You won't face it But you'll feed it Pain, you don't want it You won't need it You won't face it But you'll feed it You'll feed it You'll feed

[Chorus] Dark angel Intention in her eyes Omnipotence Waiting to arise [Refrain] All senses fail Without a warning A presence is encroaching The siren sings A darker calling Unearthly secrets Of impending darkness Now revealing sides to us that we'd never seen We are savages We are maddened by visions of what could have been Chasing a future One that we'll never see [Chorus] Dark angel Intеntion in her eyes Omnipotеnce Waiting to [Post-Chorus] We will weep as one As fragile allegiances begin to wane One crooked hand will shake the other But as the hidden blade is drawn We are forsaken by our brothers Set this fire Burn [Verse] In a whirlwind of calamity We know not what it is that we seek Drown in a sea of immorality Blinded by desire and vanity The final roll of a loaded dice The last leaves of a poisoned tree Losing sight of who we wish to be [Chorus] Dark angel Intention in her eyes Omnipotence Waiting to arise [Post-Chorus] We will weep as one As the last drop of blood is drained One blackened heart shall break the other And as the final day begins to dawn We are forsaken by each other [Refrain] All senses fail Without a warning A presence is encroaching The siren sings A darker calling Unearthly secrets Of impending darkness [Outro] Eyes of fire Eyes of fire

I was trying to rebuild something You promised that you'd listen to me But if that were true it meant that you were human That's something that remains to be seen You liar, you're only lying to yourself Forever taking, never giving Inflict a thousand lashes I'll set your world on fire And piss upon the ashes Now my nerves can't take much more of this Existence pitiful My headspace miserable, caged in animal If only I had a way to regain The time that you drain I'd finally escape Releasing the anger Has stripped me away Your sorrow, it strengthens me Now and forever Retaliation is my right Lex Talionis est dextera mea Retaliation is my right Eye for an eye until the whole world is blind You had chosen to make a promise To be the one to make me believe My word was sovereign but peace was one thing You knew that you weren't planning to keep Liar, you're only lying to yourself Imposter syndrome at its finest Look through rose-tinted glasses Ignore the endless pain With every day that passes Now my nerves can't take much more of this This is untenable My tension critical, caged in animal If only I had a second in my life To get you on your own Where no one else would know I'd peel your fucking bones Kill your disease Releasing of anger Has stripped me away Your sorrow, it strengthens me Now and forever Retaliation is my right Lex Talionis est dextera mea Retaliation is my right Eye for an eye until the whole world is blind Reinvention of my former self But I'll always hold a piece of what is left So I'll remember what it feels like To lose control of my life To lose my fucking mind I leave behind all traces of you Everything

[Verse 1] Demon queen Too many years you've had a grip on me The things I'd show you, you would not believe But know right now that you will never see what lives in me Something strikes me A lightning bolt straight from the darkness A realisation That life is shorter than expected My sense of vision Disrupted with no sense of rhythm A sudden pressure Infection permeates the system [Chorus] You know you're lonely and you're getting old When you're left with nothing but the cold Watching the doorways close on you And when the final light is getting low You're left with nothing but the cold Watching the silent world go on [Verse 2] Demon queen Too many years you've had a hold on me The things you do to gain control of me But know right now that you will never bleed a drop from me Nothing's working A frightening jolt that stopped my heartbeat A realisation I'm worse than I was at the start and You're still not listening Deflecting every sense of reason There's too much pressure I can't explain, I can't believe it [Chorus] You know you're lonely and you're getting old When you're left with nothing but the cold Watching the doorways close on you And when the final light is getting low You're left with nothing but the cold Watching the silent world go on [Bridge] Now you'll wander looking over your shoulder You're always asking when I'm gonna roll over In case you're wondering, the answer is never The world you came into is changing forever [Chorus] You know you're lonely and you're getting old When you're left with nothing but the cold Watching the doorways close on you And when the final light is getting low You're left with nothing but the cold Watching the silent world go on

A turning point has been reached in our evolution We have started to regress One by one the fallen will wander Blindly to their deaths The distant thunder cracks the night The rivers drained and running dry A blood stained moon reddens the light To feed the cyclone in the sky A breaking point has been reached in our aggravation We have started to collapse One by one the fallen will wander Blindly to their deaths The distant thunder cracks the night The rivers drained and running dry A blood stained moon reddens the light To feed the cyclone in the sky The distant thunder cracks the night The rivers drained and running dry A blood stained moon reddens the light To feed the cyclone in the sky We know not what awaits for us Our frail dystopia is lost It's lost On Earth as it is in Hell On Earth as it is in Hell Walking the path of rage Turning the final page There is no worth in this life that we sell Pushing aside the pain Only to rise again On Earth as it is in Hell Washing our dreams away Walking on razorblades There is no light in this place that we dwell Digging a shallow grave Counting the final days On Earth as it is in Hell On Earth as it is in Hell On Earth as it is in Hell
