1. State Of Dementia
Lost - I can’t seem to find my way home
Screaming, help me
I’m not sure who I am
My memory is lost and I don’t know who to trust
Excuse me, have you seen me before?
Feel paranoid, but I don’t know of who
If you were me tell me what would you do?
When I think back, everything is black
And I remember when I woke up that day
Reflections, remembrance, distorted and subdued
Who’s in the mirror, let me through…
My mind slips and my sanity escapes
Run through the night, searching for my past
Wake up - cold sweat - my eyes burn from the light
Try to recall, but it’s a constant fight
My ears are ringin’ a hypnotic drone
Got this feeling I’m never coming home
Wandering, confused, I walked in this padded room
With marbles all over the floor
I asked this guy if he knew where I was
He looked at me and said, “Welcome to our state
You’re never leaving…That’s right!
Here’s your jacket!”
2. Sight Unseen
Destruction reigns over future life morals so distorted
Inhumane
Constant death, a dying shame
Preaching the truth, but you’re living a lie
No, fading visions before my eyes
I hear the desperate cries
No, this sight unseen is real not a dream
Blackness cannot avoid - life’s lost memory
Sight unseen
Vision blurred through deception and hate
Hypocrites can’t make up their absent minds
Sacrificing all for false pride
They tell me I’m next, next victim to die
No. The black cold grows over me
I scream from below, “Set me free!”
No, this sight unseen is real, not a dream
Blackness a void - Life’s a memory
Sight unseen to me
Sight you’ve never seen
Sight unseen to me
This sight unseen
As the death tolls that funeral dirge
The end of the beginning has begun
Annihilation of the world we once knew
A bloodshed tear for what was mankind
No. It’s like involuntary suicide
We all must die
No, this sight unseen is real, not a dream
Black a void - Life’s a memory
Sight unseen to me
Sight I didn’t want to see
Sight unseen to me
May we all rest IN PIECES!!!
3. Terminal Ecstasy
Prisoner of the world you created
Lost the key, you never cared
Should’ve known you were diggn’ your own grave
No future - Death is near
Terminal problem, can’t find the fix
Sight is hallucination as life turns black
Somehow you survive the night
Feel the tension, losing your mind
You strike the match - now you’ve lost control
Too young to die
Ya gotta try
You got the chance now
Don’t just throw it away
You’ll regret it someday
Now as the clock strikes midnight
You trip on your brain
Don’t let depression bring you down
Rise above now, find the key
You’ve got too much to gain
4. Funeral March
Start today like any other
Wake up hoping for the night
Love and pain, inside the circles
A burnin’ lost heaven, lost delight
The ground is sucked inside
Smothered souls feeding the Darkness
Refuge upstairs is denied
And now I can see that they’re there
The Darkness welcomes the light
Now the dead rise and come together
Bleeding souls dry
And the Darkness hearing what they said
Slowly makes you rot inside your head forever
Now the day has come, dread is mingled with fear
Destiny is crushed by the Evil, taking over
5. Face To Fate
I’m sick as hell sittin’ in the chair
Tension surrounds me, I’m pullin’ out my hair
I plead insanity, feel I’m losin’ grip
Close to the edge, I hope I don’t slip
I’m losing control
Time to face my fate - Face to fate
My body lies still starts to decay
My soul arises immortal to stay
Now I’m free - It’s time for revenge
But my conscience is taking control
Now understand I want one more chance
But I’m stuck in this horrible hell
My life’s a disgrace I’m forced to face
Forever - trapped in my soul
Time to take control
Time to face my fate - Face to fate
6. Insane
Laughing aloud in my rubber room
Left alone, my arms are tied, my eyes are open wide
I’m living in a strange world, here nothing seems the same
Reality is just a word, don’t even know my name
We are forced to rest here
And we will see infinity
Locked up here against our will
Because they know I want to kill
I am insane
They give me medication, those horrid fucking pills
They say they’ll make me better soon, stop my urge to kill
My mind is filled with Darkness, my thoughts all turn to pain
My body wonders aimlessly, my patience starts to drain
White turns to red, as I close my eyes
Hope turns to dread, as I pull my knife
And now it seems, chains are broken
And it’s time to be free
I need a helpless victim, Death is in my eyes
I want their flowing blood, I need their pleading cries
My blade has no mercy, drugs fading from my brain
I will not stop this slaughter, I’m violently insane
7. Born To Die
Deep within your soul
You feel it’s time
Time to open up your eyes
And see the truth - the lies
Do you realize?
I am the first - I am the last
I have authority over death and chaos
I am the future - I am the past
See all you life’s blood spilling so fast
And now within your heart
You know the day has come
To walk the Earth again
And see the killed, the maimed
The already slain
Now the power of Earth surrounds me
The power of life it overwhelms me
Searching for vengeance
All that I see
You are born to die
You are born to die
You are born to die
You are born to die
8. Feel The Fire
Every night I surrender hopelessly
Your power blinds me and I can hardly see
You changed my life and you altered my dreams
And when I trust you, you’re stealin’ my brain
You call me a friend, but you’re stabbin’ my back
Deny you know my name
You burned me before but never again
It’s time you feel the flame
Feel the fire, flames burn on
And the pain is so strong
And you beggin’ for mercy
But this time you’re gonna burn
You’re bitchin’ and moaning, expect all attention
Getting worse everyday
The flame’s getting hot, hump or I’ll push you
Into the eternal flames
Feel the fire, flames burn on
And the pain is so strong
9. Say Your Prayers
Guilty as sin, but you kill feelin’ no regret
You feel you’ve done no wrong
We fight to save the world we’ve been given
You lacerate the land
This must stop now - It’s time to say your prayers
Someday you’ll wish you had thought of the future
When you’re gasping for air
All your mistakes will cause us to suffer
And for you to explain
We’ll hunt you down and make you pay
No remorse for you
Say your prayers - Kneel down and
Say your prayers - Nobody really cares
So when you go to bed tonight
Think about it, think about your life
As you pray to save your head
You know and I know that you’re dead
Run for your life as your fortress crumbles
And the finger points to you, killing blindly
Thought we’d never find you - it’s time to wake up!
Wasting the earth, ignoring all regrets
We’re gonna make you pay
Us against you, you were standing in line
No remorse for you - Say your prayers!
