1. The Elusive Truth
Go!
Look inside, and you will see, on lies you have come to rely.
The manifestations of truth's alteration that vary the course of our lives.
Certain "facts" that we know to be, are fictional or given a slant
To suit the means of those who decide how our lives will advance.
But..there will be those who cannot accept what is forced on them..
A search for the truth is undertaken in blindness,
Unaware that the lies can take many forms,
Moulded facts that serve their agendas
Force fed to us from birth.
When a structure is built on a quicksand of lies, it inevitably must fall,
And with it will come the hopes and beliefs of so many unquestioning fools
A sudden stab of ugly truth, tearing a hole in their lives,
Wavering their prior beliefs and destroying what's real in their minds..
But..there will be those who cannot accept what is forced on them
A search for the truth is undertaken in blindness,
Unaware that the deceit takes so many forms,
From altered facts to hidden agendas,
Force fed to us from birth
Lies! more Lies! Worthless, degrading... Lies!
2. Endless
A scene of sorrow, in your minds eye.
The world in darkness, a terrible vision of what could become.
Blackened corpses, are all that remain
Of a thousand victims. Women and children all sentenced to die.
Look into the cold dead eyes,
Now all is silent, so many lives lost.
The faces locked, in a silent scream
Burned and distorted, twisted with fear in the moment of death.
A needless conflict, no ground was gained,
Caught in the crossfire, of mankind's lethal political games, the death of so many a small price to pay...
"All ammunition is expendable, all casualties are acceptable!"
A world wide deadlock, of man's violent ways
All life consuming, relentless war until all is destroyed.
Look into the cold dead eyes,
Was it really worth it? So many lives lost.
The burning end is near
We despair as all is lost
But we can only kill
Mankind are destroyers
Our conflicts are endless.
Endless...
Endless...endless...
As we kill, as we fight, leaving just the scorched earth in our wake.
Less and less is left for our children's generation,
Just lanscapes filled with death, disease, and a memory of what once was.
Must our end come now?
3. The Utopia Machine
Tagged and microchipped, scanned for every known disease. Constantly observed from a multitude of angles.
Neural patterns monitored for any sign of abnormality or lack of functionality in the great machine.
Security on standby to remove any human blemish
No punishment, just silent disappearance, statistics say there is no crime!
We function, exist, but do we live?
We function, exist, but do not live!
"A network of sophisticated medias teaches us our dreams and ideals, unpleasant truths are censored and imperfections removed for our well being.
Through centuries of legislation and petty laws we have have created a politically correct utopia in which to live out our pre planned lives."
Single beings forced into hive mentality, each filling out their designated role.
New life is bred purely to replace numbers, each generation made more perfect through genetic manipulation.
More perfect, but less human, as they destroy those qualities and faults without which we would just be parasites.. feeding on the earth!
More perfect, but less human, as vital traits are slowly lost!
We seek to reach perfection by cutting off our baser self,
But it is those instincts that make us man,
The abilities to question, create and destroy.
Without them the potential of the human life is wasted.
4. Symbolic (Death Cover)
I don't mean to dwell
But I can't help myself
When I feel the vibe
And taste a memory
Of a time in life
When years seemed to stand still
I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift of precious memories
In need of a fix called innocence
When did it begin?
The change to come was undetectable
The open wounds expose the importance of
Our innocence
A high that can never be bought or sold
Symbolic acts - so vivid
Yet at the same time
Were invisible
Savor what you feel and what you see
Things that may not seem important now
But may be tomorrow
Do you remember when
Things seemed so eternal?
Heroes were so real...
Their magic frozen in time
The only way to learn
Is be aware and hold on tight
I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift of precious memories
In need of a fix called innocence
When did it begin?
The change to come was undetectable
The open wounds expose the importance of
Our innocence
A high that can never be bought or sold
Symbolic acts - so vivid
Yet at the same time
Were invisible
2. ZERO TOLERANCE
In the dark of night...
Abusing a portion of light
While others are sleeping
And some are escaping
A serpent spews out fantasy -
Unjustified blasphemy
That cannot be condoned
It must be strange to not have lived
So far into existence
This is not a test of power
This is not a game to be lost or won
Let justice be done
There will be zero tolerance
For the creator of hallowed intentions
There will be zero tolerance
Fate is your deciding God
Karma comes crashing down
Leaving a very deep scar
Exposing a door to the
Source of a verbal whore
Machines supply the altar
Where virtuous lives are sacrificed
It must be strange to not have lived
So far into existence
This is not a test of power
This is not a game to be lost or won
Let justice be done
