1. Blood
Red blood, bad blood, cold blood, sad blood
Bloody all the way.
Blue blood, pure blood, mud blood, come blood
Wash blood stains away.
Draw blood, no blood, young blood, dried blood,
Snow blood, hot blood, you drew first blood.
Your drew first blood,
Having no victim, I find it odd.
(They say that blood is thicker then water,
I say that shit is thicker than blood.
You kept your word to the other world
So now we bleed and die.)
You kept your word to the other world,
It was a blast you didn't last
(Blood signed odium.
manufacture mutated revulsion
But he who swore to live by the sword,
His blood will spill forever more.)
You kept your word to the other world
It was a blast you didn't last.
To see the day the prophets say
Armageddon call to end it all.
Open the gates of hell!
Red blood, bad blood, cold blood, sad blood
Bloody all the way.
Blue blood, pure blood, mud blood, come blood
Wash blood stains away.
Draw blood, no blood, young blood, dried blood,
Snow blood, hot blood, you drew first blood.
2. Amona
A spineless reign shows signs of fear of the enemy
Divide the land, tear out the heart of the nation
A war declared by a state on its citizens
It's our last stand:
We head straight to Amona!
We love our fatherland
Yet fear our government
Once on a mission but now banned
Keep getting high while we descend
Time's running out, maybe we are forsaken
By an ancient God whose anger has overtaken
His sense of pride his promise for the chosen!
We can not hide the monster you have awakened
We love our fatherland
Yet fear our government
Once on a mission but now banned
Keep getting high while we descend
This is the end, we will be gone by sunrise
We won't be dead thus we will walk among you
And find high courts who're pretty low on justice
Today it's me, who'll be tomorrow's practice?
3. Idol Worship
There just one God
There just one God
There just one God
There just one... God!
Those admiring beauty
Those who worship skin
Those who fight for freedom
So they can live in sin
It's all just idol worshiping
God's might we are adulterating
Retreat!
Yet believe we are advancing
It's all just devil advocating
Trendy fashions the fountain of youth
Mask your path and cloud the truth
Don't cling to life yet throw it away
Making Idols to whom in vain you pray
Those who're blinded by money
Like those who live for sex
Those whose lives are funny
Yet they're popping pills for stress
It's all just idol worshiping
God's might we are adulterating
Retreat!
Yet believe we are advancing
It's all just devil advocating
There is just one God!
Trendy fashions the fountain of youth
Mask your path and cloud the truth
Don't cling to life yet throw it away
Making Idols to whom in vain you pray
Those addicted shoppers
And those who think they've won
Like those who blame others
Every time they use their gun
It's all just idol worshiping
God's might we are adulterating
Retreat!
Yet believe we are advancing
It's all just devil advocating
There is just one god
There is one just
4. Mindless
Tight fight quite a night, will it ever end
Sight light fright and might, are words that end the same
This is (this is meaningless)
No words to regret (no words to regret)
M2 (M2 will approve)
Listen to this groove (listen to this groove)
Tight fight quite a night, words and words again
Sight light fright and might, can you count to ten?
Mindless
Meaningless
Emptiness in the form of content
Clueless
Stressless
Ready for consumption junk
Mindless!! x4
This is (this is meaningless)
No words to regret (no words to regret)
M2 (M2 will approve)
Listen to this groove (listen to this groove)
Tight fight quite a night, will it ever end
Sight light fright and might, are words that end the same
Tight fight what a night, words and words again
Sight light frightened might, I know I sound insane
Mindless
Meaningless
Emptiness in the form of content
Clueless
Stressless
Ready for consumption junk
Mindless!
5. Hypatia
At times I do have visions of the past
Some might last but most die fast
Like one Egyptian woman's dire fate
It's easy to destroy hard to create
Cinaron consuming her mangled severed limbs
Cyril is assuming that from now on he's at ease
Drag her off her lofty throne
Take her to Caesareum church
Blind should always lead the blind
And the brave will walk alone
(It's time to burn her blood
The witch will soon be dead)
Savagely butchered skinned to please a god
Brutally mangled it's time to burn her blood
Savagely butchered skinned to please a god
Brutally mangled it's time to burn her blood
Cinaron consuming her mangled severed limbs
Cyril is assuming that from now on he's at ease
Serapeum on fire
Idolatry must end
One last symbol remaining
The witch will soon be dead
6. Strife
There's more than 24 hours of pain (hours of pain)
Present in every passing day (so i watch what i say)
So i watch what i say
Life is a strife
Time's worth a dime
Both of which I have none
It's a sign
Re-align
Although at my prime I live like slime
Once upon
Skeleton
A ladder to climb not for real just in mime
You can cry
You can sigh
But life will go on and leave you behind
There's more than 60 minutes of hell (minutes of hell)
Present each hour I know it so well so (I fear my death bell)
So I fear my death bell
Life is a strife...
There's less than 60 seconds of sin (seconds of sin)
I counted in one minute's grin (there is no way to win)
There is no way to win
Life is a strife...
7. Resentment
Wrath, aches
Are all that's left
Mistakes I made up to now
Are the reason I hate myself
I can't tell if the world is losing me
Or if the world has made me lose it
(Will I outlive the coming sunrise?
Was this the last of my tomorrows?
Do you think I had it coming?
I'm dead to pain I'm numb to sorrows)
I can't decide when I died
Proud, march
Towards the dark horizon
No company to comfort me
My game is over
It's time I brought the curtains down
My play is done my crowd's all gone
I can't decide when I died
It's time I brought the curtains down
My play is done my crowd's all gone
I can't tell if the world is losing me
Or if the world has made me lose it
8. Making a Difference
Some times I think that anything
Would be better than this
Inside my shrine no one's allowed
Hidden from passersby
Cerebral shelter from this world
Safe from this hell
You need no eyes.
To see the injustice
And breathe in the lies
Some times I think that anything
Would be better than this
Inside my shrine no one's allowed
Hidden from passersby
Cerebral shelter from this world
Feeling bad is not enough to feed the starving
Or call their bluff
Getting mad is not a way to aid the helpless
Who die each day
To make a difference we'd have to rebel
Against the system that's not treating us well
Against all religions who set us apart
Through hate and through fear you won't win my heart
Against mediocrity which says it's OK
To be wrong, go along, and have nothing to say
And against all the people who by bringing you
Down feel so right and important but their tongues are brown
Some times I think that anything
Would be better than this
Inside my shrine no one's allowed
Hidden from passersby
Cerebral shelter from this world
Safe from this hell
You need no eyes.
To see the injustice
And breathe in the lies
9. More Blood
10. Once Upon a Lifetime part I
(Houston we have a problem)
This song will fester inside your little head
If time allows it, at a later date
This song is a testimony of what we were force fed
Beaten, battered and left for dead.
Cat and mice play dice underneath your bedroom window
To slice and dice and raise the price of war orphans and widows
I am the rage of a generation - misled, gone astray
I am the voice of liberation about to break the chain
Born for no good reason, made to feel at home
Practicing consumerism inside this pleasure dome
11. Once Upon a Lifetime part II
Do you think you are safe?
Do you think they will spare you?
Do you think they are done with you
If they say that it's over?
So you believe it is over
Did they make you forget your dead?
Did they plant some hope in you
Before they ran for cover?
The world is a loaded pistol
I'll try to ease the pain
I'm here to secure a future
On the surface not down the drain
Did they put it behind you?
Did they say you could trust them?
Did they say they will not come for more
When this war was over?
The world is a loaded pistol
I'll try to ease the pain
I'm here to secure a future
On the surface not down the drain
I hear voices / a distant shadow / bloody traces
Is this death row?
Morning sunrise / endless darkness / foolish mankind
Divine sadness...
This was my main agenda
Here comes you lullaby
One day you will comprehend it
I think this is a fair goodbye
12. Once Upon a Lifetime part III
[lullaby:]
Between my sunrises
And all my twilights
Before what's right
You are my truth
However after
And in between it
I have a life
Meaning you
13. Once Upon a Lifetime part IV
I am the eyes of my new religion
You are it's heart and soul
You are the new face on my new television
About to take control
(What do we leave behind but painful memories?
What'll be on my mind when heart and blood flow cease?)
I am the arms of my new religion
Your part makes me whole
Your show is top rated on my television
Sucks me in like a black hole
I wish my breath could roam inside you
And dissipate all fear
I hope you'll let our home surround you
Even when we're not here
I am the mouth of my new religion
You're the actor with the lead role
Someone please turn on my new television
Guarding life is my main goal
(Was there a point in time you felt at your prime?
Was life a progressive clime or just a successive decline?)
I'll gladly die for my new religion
All for one and one for all
There's only truth on my brand new television
Life's a never ending ball
I wish my breath could roam inside you
And dissipate all fear
I hope you'll let our home surround you
Even when we're not here
I am the eyes
You are the soul
I am your life
You are my all
This was my entire agenda
There goes your lullaby
A day will come and you'll comprehend it
For now this was my fair goodbye
(One small step for men,
One giant leap for mankind)
14. Once Upon a Lifetime part V
