1. When the Sun Burns Red
savage
heat is searing
global warming has begun
mother earth is reeling
no protection from the sun
forest fires are raging
while the rivers turn to ice
foolish man creating
mother nature's cruel demise
hailstorms, tornadoes
cold spells, untimely frosts
heat waves and blizzards
global death's the cost
face the end of time
as we plunge headlong towards the day
can't deny the signs
when the sun burns red
the earth will turn
from blue to gray
winter turns to summer
then the seasons disappear
no one needs a prophet
to explain what's all too clear
oceans overflowing
islands drowning everywhere
leaders wouldn't admit it
now they're crying in despair
hailstorms, tornadoes
cold spells, untimely frosts
heat waves and blizzards
global death's the cost
face the end of time
as we plunge headlong towards the day
can't deny the signs
when the sun burns red
the earth will turn
from blue to gray
now rain shall wash away sad remains of man
cities once so proud will crumble in sand
buildings collapse when all is done and said
the guilty ones will die with the innocent
when the sun burns red
2. Coma of Souls
masters of war
merchants of false peace
bleeding the lives of the lost
feeding the terminal disease
breaking the rules
no matter who gets hurt
wholesaling useless trash
charging twice what it's worth
freedom of thought a mirage
the coma is endless and deep
feeling so wordly and wise
fooled by the friends that we keep
spirits on ice
they'll never be free
one dimensional lives
will the coma of souls outlife eternity
children are pawns
for generals to play with and kill
mercy will never be found
where mayhem is donw for the thrill
righteous crusades
murder to honor a god?
no one is saved
dead bodies shrivel and rot
deep in the unconscious mind
lies the oldest wisdom
buried by centuries
of war and inquisition
truth is raped and crucified
by men with savage brains
and greed flows forth in endless wave
from fools to wretched slaves
3. People of the Lie
don't look
at me as if i didn't know
your vanity is all you ever show
what you believe and advocate
fanatic dogma recycled from yesterday
got a masterplan
genocide
can't understand
people of the lie
you are to me the waste of flesh and blood
i'd love to see you buried in the mud
and when you die no one will shed a tear
so pass me by don't need your hatred here
got a masterplan
genocide
can't understand
people of the lie
prejudice
intolerance
eye for an eye
you cannot hide behind those empty claims
your racist pride is nothing but a game
and you will lose for right is on the side
of those who choose to fight for humankind
got a masterplan
genocide
can't understand
people of the lie
you can't believe
don't be deceived
4. World Beyond
reach for the
reaper's scythe
sailing the river styx
watching the other side
casting an ancient hex
journey to the gates of hell
dying to break the bond
nothing but a soul to sell
no room in satan's pond
fearless mind
ghost explores
spectre flies
journey to the world beyond
casting off spheres of pain
revel in joy you've found
laughing as colours fade
flying free and unbound
the bargain has been kept
from beyond the gate souls call
it's too late for regrets
on deaf ears pleading falls
fearless mind
ghost explores
spectre flies
journey to the world beyond
fearful mind
spectre trapped
no return
welcome to the world beyond
5. Terror Zone
my inner eyes see
many spheres
a cruel dimension where time and space distort beyond control
a ride to another center of the universe
my thoughts come undone make me see the dark stains on my soul
a darkness as cold as ice surrounds me in this place
i probe a veiled phobia, all my own
creatures crawl out from my weirdest, wildest dreams
they are flesh, not fantasy, they drag me inside the...
terror zone
demons, ghouls and fiends that once i could ignore
shred the skin and flesh from my bones
planets form and die, the cosmos torments me
unnatural, humongous, neverending...
terror zone
now i know what dwells within me
blood - a river of sweat and tears
flesh - a land god left behind
soul - a sky of cloudy fears
deception and disguise dissolve before my inner eyes
my heart turns to stone
god i'm all alone
oh, no
all alone
terror zone
6. Agents of Brutality
minutely
planned professional crime assasination at night
cold-blooded killers on a midnight hunt for a girl who cannot fight
kidnapped, tortured, skinned alive, victim of wanton abuse
without protection a life is lost, condemned for speaking the truth
manic, panic
will you suffer endlessly
from agents of brutality
speak the truth
pay the price
the unjust reign
the innocent cry
abomination in the dead of the night
polished metal gleams
deadly weapons in the hands of beasts
another martyr screams
a victim cringes, staggers, falls and struggles to live on
but soon enough their mission is done
the spark of life is gone
manic, panic
will you suffer endlessly
from agents of brutality
torment, murder
you will diea a thousand times
before they finally let you die
speak the truth
pay the price
the unjust reign
the innocent cry
7. Material World Paranoia
dehumanization through industrialization
bring fear to the masses of reincarnation
manic frustration deterioration
nature fights back for its own preservation
concrete coffin breeds lunacy
cold steel skeleton
desperation in the factory
crank out oblivion
material world paranoia
corporations rule the earth
material world paranoia
enslavery begins at birth
power's illusion brings global confusion
a forgone conclusion of mind's evolution
nature's destruction through massive production
a blatant example of mindless construction
concrete coffin breeds lunacy
cold steel skeleton
desperation in the factory
crank out oblivion
material world paranoia
don't dream about how life can be
experience your dreams
before this prefab culture wastes your life
stay on the straight and narrow course
material wealth is yours
but the promise of a better future is a lie
the promise of a better future is nothing but a lie
8. Twisted Urges
fulfilling
morbid dreams
of those who never have time to sleep
enduring to extremes
held by a promise that they won't keep
dark silence is so real
walls painted black as night
locked up in chains of steel
down in the cellar nothing is right
mistress of perversity
unwilling tool of others lust
witnessing abnormality
with no one left to trust
hell couldn't be this bad
sold by her father to gratify
she never hand a chance
raped, beaten, sodomized
her martyred soul cries out
yet no one hears her scream
her world is fear and doubt
she's a prisoner of this groteque scene
mistress of perversity
she never had a chance
raped, beaten, sodomized
twisted urges drove her to the end
9. Hidden Dictator
no shape, no
form, no brain, no mind
but the power to control all resistance
its awesome might cannot be denied
by the world that ignores its existence
older than time, stranger than life
don't look for a sign, without warning it will arrive
it can read your mind
see the world inside
oversees your life
decides the day you die
silent lifetaker
sentient creator
world recoil in fear
of the hidden dictator
presence beyond our imagination
horrible being of fate
not one sign of its domination
god prays it never awakes
older than time, stranger than life
don't look for a sign, without warning it will arrive
it can read your mind
see the void inside
oversees your life
decides the day you die
silent lifetaker
sentient creator
world recoil in fear
of the hidden dictator
worlds have risen, lived and died under its obscene command
kept the balance of galaxies in it's omnipotent hands
minds of greedy distortion
all are destroyed in its awake
it judges the worth of the lowforms of life
who cower and quiver and quake
some may call it the savior
fall to their bellies and pray
some will try to resist in the hope they'll exist
to experience just one more day
and the lost shall pray for forgiveness
and the fearful and weak start to scream
as the terrible nightmare of a dying world
becomes beauty beyond any dream
one world must end
new ones begin
a pure life form
from death is born
silent lifemaker
sentient creator
the new world is blessed by the hidden dictator
10. Mental Slavery
land of
solitude
a place of horror and dark and cruel
there's no need to seek the truth
opinions are provided for you
innocence of youth
full of visionary fantasies
from subconscious laboratories
try to break the chains of barbarity
servants to mother machine
nursed by video screens
paradise of insanity
born into a grave of
mental slavery
lost in dark reality
mental slavery
memories of the past
holy empires of harmony
visions only children see
are soon removed by society
replaced by numbing fear
the horror show of rules sets in
total control of thought begins
another car on the highway of sin
servants to mother machine
nursed by video screens
paradise of insanity
born into a grave of
mental slavery
lost in dark reality
mental slavery
just one of a million slaves
an expendable commodity
this song's for those who serve
the system of terror
that rules the earth
