  1. Canvas
  My face the canvas for your vision of me
 Happy smiley face, too weak for life itself.
 Corrupted- super human- hypocrite with a halo
 Prisoner and hostage of its own faith
 
 The vision- distorted, not me at all
 What you hate and fear, projected on me
 Lack of knowledge, lack of mind
 Fearing, I'd wipe the clouds from your eyes
 
 I struggle, I fight, I fall, I bleed, but my soul is free
 I suffer, I starve, I cry, I die, but my soul is free
 
 Despair, one of my worst enemies
 Brave enough to admit, my human weakness
 Prison, hostage and their guard I see too
 Anxious to see how they trying to get out
 
 My scars are telling the story- I am human
 Trying to survive this place- nothing else
 Trying to survive this place- but not alone
 Trying to hold my feet on the ground
                               (I am not alone)
 
 I struggle, I fight, I fall, I bleed, by bloody reality
 I suffer, I starve, I cry, I die, but my soul is free
 
 Smiley face protects me from killing
 Fighting the infinite reasons to hate
 Trying to survive this place, everyday
 Smiling face on the canvas survives
 
 
 
  2. Towards the Edge of Degeneration
  Turn of a century
 Everything is lost
 The commercial breaks before the daily news
 Invites "the truth of life" to us
 
 No changes in crowds demands
 Two milleniums later
 Feeble- mindness revolts
 Keeping a record of bread and games
 
 How dare to from children's mind
 To that humanity learns from their mistakes
 ... a formal defect...
 Believing into our ages standard
 Their own ignorant presumption
 
 What is perverted;
 A world that's suffering in the daily news
 Or a bunch of idiots, watching the quote whores truth
 
 No doubt, cause these are "soul touching problems"
 In our "real" life
 In our commercial breaks
 
 
 
  3. I am the Enemy
  Bumbing in circles over and over
 Sounds paradox, but that's how it is
 For I'm spinning in circles and still
 I am crushing at corners, my borders,
 My pain threshold, at myself
 Over and over
 
 I run, still I'm not moving
 I breath, still I suffocate
 I pary, still I don't expect
 I gave my heart, did I?
 
 Crying, but tears ain't flowing
 Screaming, silent I remain
 Hiding, but still to be seen
 Dying like an animal in his cage
 
 Looked up, freezed up, walls that I can't climb up
 Crashing against borders that I've been building up
 Encircled by the stubbornness, my fake unconsciousness
 And if I strip down to my bones, what do I have to see
 
 I am the enemy
 
 So now I am stranded and someone has to pay for this
 Point me someone who's responsible, whom I can blame
 Through all this shit the mirror shows, it shows me
 
 I am the enemy
 I - am - my - own - enemy
 
 Looked up and freezed up, all that I've build up
 Encircled by the stubbornness, my fake unconsciousness
 And if I strip down to my bones, this is it - in the end
 Written on my face - I am the enemy
 
 
 
  4. Pierced by Death
  The dawn of your being
 Is coming faster as you thought
 It's melting away
 It flows thru your bleeding eyes
 Once a castle, strong and proud
 Now crushed to a ruin of fears
 
 Your existence pierced by death
 While it consumes your anguish
 Your existence pierced by death
 While it consumes your pain
 Your existence pierced by death
 While it consumes your grief
 
 Fearfull eyes - searching for support
 As time goes by...
 Fearfull eyes - a petition of mercy
 As time goes by...
 
 Your existence pierced by death
 While it eat's the joy
 Your existence pierced by death
 While it eat's the fortune
 Your existence pierced by death
 While it tears your soul to pieces
 
 Fearfull eyes are screaming to
 As time goes by...
 Fearfull eyes - a divided soul
 As time comes to an end
 
 
 
  5. Extinction of Mankind
  No relief, there is no way out
 Of our breed, our breed to exist
 Our image formed by our conceptions
 In the past - simple origin to wipe out
 
 The ideal mankind, a try that could fail
 Cause the exinction of mankind still creeps
 ...onward! For vast dismembering no rescue
 Physical mutations - a dreadful art
 
 An insane philosophy of a thing that should not be
 Genetical changes...a kind of playing god
 To strive the model man, is part of a condemn plan
 
 Extinction of mankind
 Overestimation of a dying race
 Extinction of mankind
 Was written for these who will fail
 
 
 
  6. Shivering
  Existence pushed to the lowest level
 The freedom of spirit that last to remain...seemingly!
 All principles sold, given up, for this state of mind.
 the life, for what it is and never should be.
 
 Only a poor, sick brain and myself left to sell.
 
 Take it all, don't try to understand
 The rest of what - the rest of what was good
 You won't see, never destroy.
 
 And all around only agreement
 To everything that means fun
 Arguing only a foreign word.
 
 And I watch the coldness infecting me too.
 
 
 
  7. Tremendum
 
 
 
  8. As Silence Dies
  Silence from the first sparkle of the sun
 Until the rising of the sun's own shadow
 All painfull noise just disappeared, faded to nothing
 Swallowed by the silence that hides within me
 Silence took over the control, for a last try
 To search for an escape of the rising abyss.
 
 Chorus:
 I fall into something that kills me again
 And I silence hide
 My hideout, the sacred place of my soul
 Now to be gone, now to be killed
 Once again my silence rise, then fades and dies
 Chained to the killing abyss with no option left
 
 2
 My silence screams, (as) it has been bound
 To all the sweet human abyss
 that leads into this blackened dream
 The blackened dream of pride, hatred and pain
 And all what bounds to the abyss you can't escape
 as my silence sees the truth, I ignore with human pride
 
 Chorus:
 
 3
 My silence knows that I forgot, (to) return to the place
 Where I've been called (by my name)
 A call (that) unchains my silence, makes me strong
 Where I'm weak,
 The antidote to the venom of the night, it eats it all
 And even now it would be too late, I let the silence be.
 
 
 
  9. Relevation of Justice
  Murderer arrested
 Now gas will be wasted
 This scum has to be removed
 Die! Just for Justice's proof
 
 The fear on your face I see
 This is how it has to be
 The repentance you proclaim
 Very funny - it's your game
 
 Eye for an eye - so you have to die
 Eye for an eye - society won't cry
 Eye for an eye - tooth for an tooth
 You have to die - by our truth
 
 "In God we trust"? At least the dollar does
 But dollar times are bound to pass
 Who gave you the power to judge alone?
 For my power I have already shown
 
 For the victim's sake it was done
 All that scum should be killed young
 Obey the laws that have been created
 Less gas has to be wasted
 
 
 My power I have already shown
 
 
 
  10. Of Traumatic Memories and Tears
  Here I am, empty and sad
 My withering life, raped by a mood
 Here I crouch with my aimless life
 That's only a shadow of the past
 Here i am, Empty and weak
 Lost my beliefs, I don't know why
 You violated me, my aimless life is
 Only a shadow of the past
 
 You oppressed me, you raped me
 You take all the love I've felt in life
 You ignored me, betrayed me
 And now you want to get rid of me
 
 You slave the innocent
 Raping (their) souls into unconsciousness
 As if I haven't suffered enough
 For all the human race
 With all my wounds I will dry
 Oceans of innocent blood and tears
 Taking all of their burdens
 The last victim should have been me
 
 Raped by a disease of a human mood
 I closed my eyes to handle the pain
 And started to drift into a world
 Of traumatic memories and tears
 
 
 
  11. Nothing from You
  I don't beg for your acceptance
 I don't beg for your affection
 I don't beg for a silent moment
 neither that you walk with me
 
 I don't beg for your aggression
 I don't beg for your void truth
 I don't beg for a little help
 neither that you leave me alone
 
 Like a seed I wish I could
 plant a thought into your heart.
 That you could see what I saw,
 feel what I felt and die how I died
 
 I don't beg that you die with me
 I don't beg that you care about me
 I don't beg that you read my mind
 neither that you burn YOUR mask
 
 Blood all over me.
 Denied, betrayed and slaughtered
 for nothing in return.
 Nothing you have, nothing that you can bring,
 Materialism ends
 Nothing you can offer me weights in on my
 sacrifice, weights in on the pain that
 I've been through.
 Nothing.
 
 Like a seed I wish I could
 plant a thought into your heart.
 That you could see what I saw,
 feel what I felt and die how I died.
 
 I don't beg that you die with me
 I don't beg that you care about me
 I don't beg that you read my mind
 neither that you burn YOUR mask
 
 Like a seed I wish I could
 plant a thought into your heart.
 That you could see what I saw,
 feel what I felt and die how I died.
