1. The Illusionist
As an outcast I paced defeat
Seeking comfort in this painful retreat
Made an oracle against my will
Word spread of miraculous skills
Premonitions call my name
I once doubted them all when they came
Now I embrace it and I'll never be the same
Transfixed in the desert sands
Take a look at my once empty hand
See the rose that appears so real
Just like the one you saw in your dreams
Those who call me avatar
Know not what they're looking for
They just feed their flames with miracles
Just so you know
If you bathe within my light
You diminish your own might
The illusionist in everyone
As an outcast I faced defeat
Seeking comfort in this painful retreat
Made an oracle against my will
Word spread of miraculous skills
Premonitions call my name
I once doubted them all when they came
Now I embrace it and I'll never be the same
Those who call me avatar
Know not what they're looking for
They just feed their flames with miracles
Just so you know
If you bathe within my light
You diminish your own might
Illusionist in everyone
What I say and what I do was once potential
Sprung from the infinite place that dictates the seen
Those who call me avatar
Know not what they're looking for
They just feed their flames with miracles
Just so you know
If you bathe within my light
You diminish your own might
Illusionist in everyone
In everyone!
2. Slaves to the Subliminal
Eyes transfixed at flashing visuals
Looking without seeing
Subject for subliminal attacks
Subconscious registrations
Efficient manipulation methods
The embedded distorters
One step in the mass hypnosis
On a monumental scale
Vile embrace of the one who beholds
Robbed of thoughts and of feelings
Draining dry the very mind
All we know is what they show
Never seen - the chains that binds
Lies enslave you!
Registrations that will burn our spirits hollow
Making sure the blind stays blind
We are slaves to the subliminal
No choice to accept or reject
Heading straight for the source
Perceived below normal awareness
Suck in the embedded additions
Eyes transfixed at flashing visually
Looking without seeing
Subject for subliminal attacks
Subconscious registrations
Vile embrace of the one who beholds
Robbed of thoughts and of feelings
Draining dry the very mind
All we know is what they show
Never seen - the chains that binds
Lies enslave you
Registrations that will burn our spirits hollow
Making sure the blind stays blind
Drugged docile by the embeds
They enter below the threshold
Intricate manipulation technique
Promotes robotic behavior
Consume according to fabricated needs
Command the subconscious
Follow all the shallow standards
Programmed instinct response
Draining dry the very mind
All we know is what they show
Never seen - the chains that binds
Registrations that will burn our spirits hollow
Making sure the blind stays blind
Enslave you
3. Mind Machine
All free will is gone
Automatic knowledge
Humans lead in leashes
Silent, untrue
All are subjects to
Automated liars
Broadcast feelings through
Machines that makes you
Wither away
Death of the soul
Indoctrinated in false grace
Bio-machinery
Mind and machinery
Fear now fuels the system
Bio-machinery
Target is the world
Structuring the madness
Terminating ancient
Concepts of truth
Power structure comes
Silent weapons fired
Quiet wars in minds
The damage is done
Wither away
Death of the soul
Indoctrinated in false grace
Bio-machinery
Mind and machinery
Fear now fuels the system
Bio-machinery
All hope that died must rise anew
By facing the passage of time
All that we've known was bound to drown
Before we could wake
Bio-machinery
Mind and machinery
Fear now fuels the system
Bio-machinery
4. Pitch Black Progress
This landscape mechanical
Well-oiled black machinery
Bio-driven computers
Programmed for slave labour
For slave labour!
Structure made in urban design
Kills the evolution of the mind
I marching on a dead end path
With misplaced concentration
It's a pitch-black progress
It's a dead end process
It's a pitch-black progress
No more, no less
Digital temples monitor the population
Supplying the masses with what they see fit
Programming digital dreams for the consumers
A zombie nation devoid of improvisation
Electro-hypnotic messages
Downloaded directly to the brain
Endless chanting subliminal
Hammers down the-will to resist
Progressing into a pitch black future
Leaving behind an analogue past
Promoting all op their new ways
Whatever the cost may be
It's a pitch-black progress
It's a dead end process
It's a pitch-black progress
No more, no less
Introducing a pitch-black approach
Taste the horns of the future
Swallow the sulphur of the new order
To resist is to non-exist
5. Calculate the Apocalypse
Awaiting a cosmic collision
The igniting of the visible world
Unpredictable asteroid impact
Monumental blastwave unleashed
Imminent undoing of this world
Unveils tragedy mixed with relief
As we give in to the end
Awaiting the atmospheric entry
Calculate the crater formation
The massive fireball expansion
Lost to thermal radiation
Imminent undoing of this world
Unveils tragedy mixed with relief
As we give in to the end
Estimate time of impact
Calculate the fatal fact
Estimate the cataclysm
Calculate the apocalypse
Technology
Facing defeat
An industry tainted with deceit
Activity
Done secretly
Chosen survivors find security
Imminent undoing of this world
Unveils tragedy mixed with relief
As we give in to the end
Estimate time of impact
Calculate the fatal fact
Estimate the cataclysm
Calculate the apocalypse
6. Dreaming 24/7
I can hear the colours
Hear what they say
I can taste the sounds
Voice of the soul sings inside
Dreaming
All the time
Deep in slumber
The expression of the soul
In the dreaming zone
I shall find
Illusive minds never wake
I'm lost inside a dreaming lie
Never awake (awake)
I'm seeing through another's eyes as time goes on
(As Time goes on)
I've always known that when my daydream fades away
I never leave the cold that is the dreaming tide
I can taste while dreaming
Wish I could stay
Inside my head I just know
I've been lead astray
Dreaming
All the time
Deep in slumber
The expression of the soul
In the dreaming zone
I shall find
Illusive minds never wake
I'm lost inside a dreaming lie
Never awake (awake)
I'm seeing through another's eyes as time goes on
(As time goes on)
I've always known that when my daydream fades away
I never leave the cold that is the dreaming tide
Now I move on
To the subconscious states unknown
Dream world now gone, I am shown
Why I dream at night and on and on
Waking through my intuition, this path I must know
Dreaming
All the time
Deep in slumber
The expression of the soul
In the dreaming zone
I shall find
Illusive minds never wake
I'm lost inside a dreaming me
Never' awake (awake)
I'm seeing through another's eyes as time goes on
(As time goes on)
I've always known that when my daydream fades away
I never leave the cold that is the dreaming tide
Dreaming tide!
7. Abstracted
Darkness falls, light descending
From the sky and towards the ground
Electric presence
Prolonged strobe flash
Bays of light
Now shatters the night
Abstracted shape
Abstracted one
High voltage bolt was aimed at the head and chest
One taken
Lost to the skies
Gone, taken away
Five days absent
The manhunt fails
None can explain
The course of events
Abstracted shape
Abstracted one
High voltage bolt was aimed at the head and chest
Abducted soul
Abducted mind
Bright bolts of energy slays reality
Abstracted shape
Abstracted one
High voltage bolt was aimed at the head and chest
Abducted soul
Abducted mind
Bright bolts of energy slays reality
Departure
Strange sights
Chaos within me
Departure
Bright lights
I can't believe my eyes
Darkness falls, light descending
From the sky and towards the ground
8. The Kaleidoscopic God
The lifeless worlds come alive
Gathered here both low and high
Show me sights I dreamt at night
I shall return with the dreaming tide
As above, so below
Microcosm is macrocosm
Anything I visualize
Takes place for real
The formless takes the shape I want
I am the decoder of wavelengths
Unobserved it is but nothing
But the potential for everything
As above, so below
Microcosm is macrocosm
Anything I visualize
Takes place for real
Stray into the silence
Stray into my soul
Stray beyond the shallow entombment
Fate - forms a complex kaleidoscope
Planets interact within my head
Universes moved with the will
Anything I imagine occurs
Manifestation is a fact
Stray into the silence
Stray into my soul
Stray beyond the shallow entombment
Fate - forms a complex kaleidoscope
The outside appears to move
But never really does
The mind is in movement
Unknowing, unaware
Earth appears in my head
Does the rules of manifestation apply
At such dense place
In such soulless waste
Travel forth light-years away
Beyond the form of night and day
Kaleidoscopic shapes at play
Colours sparkle in every way
As above, so below
Microcosm is macrocosm
Anything I visualize
Takes place for real
Stray into the silence
Stray into my soul
Stray beyond the shallow entombment
Fate - forms a complex kaleidoscope
The outside appears to move
But never really does
Earth appears in my head
Does the rules of manifestation apply
9. Retaliator
Behold essence of unearthly
Holographic entity
Shape shifting being within me
Defying the eyes
I emerge from within
Cold-blooded design
Rising terror
Towards mankind
Retaliator
Retaliation's coming
Retaliator
Inter-dimensional
Beyond five sense reality
Reptilian frequency
Temples and shrines that you see here
Were built in my name
I shall bring the end
To all of your kind
Faithful servants
Prepare to be devoured
Retaliator
Retaliation's coming
Retaliator
Inter-dimensional
Prime desecrator
Fall to the new world order
Death generator
Servants and fiends alike
Your prevailing reality defines me
As any folklore being
Prime desecrator
Fall to the new world order
Death generator
Servants and fiends alike
Your revelation or your damnation
Either way I bring you death
Prime desecrator
Fall to the new world order
Death generator
Servants and fiends alike
10. Oscillation Point
I've always known It is too late
The signs burn deep in my soul
End of the waiting comes; I'm taking my life
I've always known it is too late
I gladly reap what I sow
So now I bid you all farewell
Blade in hand I do hesitate,
Terror can be read in my face
I keep forgetting that there is nothing to fear
Caged inside
I cannot seem to end the battles
Breaking down, I worship the insane
I've always known it is too late
The signs burn deep in my soul
End of the waiting comes
I'm taking my life
I loathe all the things I see
What you feel doesn't matter to me
All these words and still there is nothing to hear
Caged inside
I cannot seem to end the battles
Breaking down, I worship the insane
Churning, burning
With frustration
Churning I am
Turning, drowned in sickness
Twisting disease
Swirling fever
And frustration
Vile infection
Churning within
Burning conflicts
Enter death
Caged inside
I cannot seem to end the battles
Breaking down, I worship the insane
Caged inside
This world knows its torture tactics
Born to pain but never again, no
11. The Path of Least Resistance
The path of choice optimal
The labyrinth unsolved
Haunting the complex of these halls
Adrift upon the massive waves
This godforsaken maze
Suddenly returning to the haze
Guiding star shine bright tonight
And light up my path
Time has come to know myself
Least resistant path
Burning signals I'm finding
Least resistant path
Things to be said and done
I burn with the flames
Float with the uncontrolled waters
My soul flies with the breeze
Perplexed in vast complexity
Ghost in the machinery
Seeking the exit constantly
Facing a hopeless endeavour
Being one's own saviour
Lost without a guiding star
Guiding star shine bright tonight
And light up my path
Time has come to know myself
Least resistant path
Burning signals I'm finding
Least resistant path
Things to be said and done
I burn with the flames
Float with the uncontrolled waters
My soul flies with the breeze
With every corner turned my heart sinks
A mirage lights my hope again
That silhouette could be anything
But I'm beyond the realm of reason
Least resistant path
Burning signals I'm finding
Least resistant path
Things to be said and done
I burn with the flames
Float with the uncontrolled waters
My soul flies with the breeze
Guiding star shine bright tonight
And light up my path
Time has come to know myself
The path of least resistance
12. Carved in Stone
You're never alone
Still you're on your own
You cannot see the light
Although you face the sun
The things you see
Are filtered through belief so strong
Passed on through DNA and society
I could never believe that the veil
I saw just came from my mind
The illusion is gone
A swarming pattern of frequencies
Is what this would be?
Without the decoders called the eyes
Bent into shape as thoughts define what you see
Losing its true form to human misery
Wait; resist the ones who feed upon your sorrow
Those who whisper lies to bring the veil in sight
Fate is not the guilt and failures of tomorrow
Fixed and carved in stone,
There s nothing of the kind
You cannot really see me in this earthly dome
So avoid judging me, stay silent
Keep in mind that all is veiled
Only fragments of your mind
Now change has begun
Came from my mind
The illusion is gone
A swarming pattern of frequencies
Is what this would be?
Without the decoders called the eyes
Bent into shape as thoughts define what you see
Losing its true form to human misery
Wait; resist the ones who feed upon your sorrow
Those who whisper lies to bring the veil in sight
Fate is not the guilt and failures of tomorrow
Fixed and carved in stone,
There s nothing of the kind
13. Deviate from the Form
I transcend my earthly form
Through some questions never asked before
Question the need to be a machine
That responds automatically
Some words will trigger certain acts
Just one of the commandments we have learnt
Some acts will trigger certain states
I think it's time to alter the game
I'm changing
You're changing
We're changing from within
Deviate from the form of nothing
Deviate from the norm to something
Deviate from the form of nothing
I deviate, farewell to the tribe
I receive clues that lead me
To answers never seen before
And find the final piece
In the puzzle of reality
Some words will trigger certain acts
Belief in limitations we have learnt
Some acts will trigger certain states
I'm taking back what I gave away
I'm changing
You're changing
We're changing from within
Deviate from the form of nothing
Deviate from the norm to something
Deviate from the form of nothing
I deviate, farewell to the tribe
Soul volcano
Now erupting
Lava swallows
What used to be
Soul tsunami
Overflowing
Overriding
Reality
Soul volcano
Now erupting
Lava swallows
What used to be
Soul tsunami
Overflowing
Overriding
Reality
Deviate from the form of nothing
Deviate from the norm to something
Deviate from the form of nothing
I deviate, farewell to the tribe
