1. Fight Till The Death We Must

The CCF is knocking at my door as we speak
They are looking for me as I take sleep
But I’m no fool as I move from place to place
They will not ever fine me, I left not a trace

Will they give me my life, will they admit the wrong
Will we ever live, will we ever belong

We are united in our common cause
We will not be turned back or deterred
Many have fallen for our final goal
I must go on, spreading out our word

Will they give me my life, will they admit the wrong
Will we ever live, will we ever belong

Fight! Till the death we must, until we break free
Fight! Till the death we must, it is agreed
Fight! Till the death we must, put trust in force
Fight! Till the death we must, it’s now or never

I never knew what freedom cost

Fight! Till the death, Fight! Till the death
Until we break free, Fight! Till the death
It’s now or never




2. The Executioner

He stares, with eyes, that come from the bowels of hell
He sees, through you, part of his deadly spell
He smiles, he laughs, he checks his tools of death
He asks, “last words?” like it was a gruesome test

Fear the executioner
Damn the executioner

He moves, with grace, like an artist on showcase
He knows, his trade, there is no time to waste
He feels, no guilt, as another life he takes
He shows, no shame, he’s a devil face to face

Fear the executioner
Damn the executioner

His blood, runs cold, like ice from the arctic north
His touch, it burns, with a very intense scorch
His mind, is closed, it might as well be dead
His life, was set, for execution he was bred




3. The Lost And Found

We’ve circled the mountains, we’ve touched the sky
We’ve seen the ways on the other side
We’ve seen their oceans, and their deep blue seas
We’ll reach their heaven or we will surely die

We are the soldiers of the Lost And Found
We are the warriors living underground

Every day we live, at our own expense
We make them richer than one should ever be
We sweat the hours and the days away
They count their billions in the land of greed

We are the soldiers of the Lost And Found
We are the warriors living underground

Look into your heart and seek out the truth
Don’t believe the words that you learned from in school
Even if they tell you don’t really know
Pass on the words of our gallant few
It will take a war that we will probably lose
Better die a man than a thousand mindless fools
We hide in the shadows and we are on the go
Listen for our signal, and carry it on through

We are the soldiers of the Lost And Found
We are the warriors living underground

We are, the martyrs, and the only one chance
We will, never surrender, to the last man we die
Maybe, we will never know, the freedom that we dream
We shall, forever search, or dying we will try

The Lost and Found, The Lost and Found




4. Take Me Home

We say our goodbyes tearful as they may
We can’t return, even from this day
To our final home we shall ever stay
So glorious, is all that they say
We board the train to the promised land
We’ve worked so hard, always on demand
To our rewards for our sacrifice
Blood, sweat, and tears has been our life

Take me home, to paradise
Where the seas move into light
Take me home to paradise
Where the days move into night

As sad as it seems, with families no more
We will now see, the old ones before
Surely they will be, younger in age
As we were told, from the master sage

Take me home to paradise
Take me home to paradise

On and on the train moves on and then we do arrive
The place is so barren cold nothing like it’s told
An army of CCF wait by the doors
Then they march us one by one till there is no more

Take me home, take me home, take me home to paradise
Take me home, take me home, take me home to paradise




5. Directive 65

All through life, we’re taught it’s the law
All through life, we’re told it’s because
To another land, we all must pass
We’re taught it’s heaven, a reward for our tasks
All the day, the honor will commence
Graduating, it was the event

We must move on, the force we can’t deny
We are the victims of Directive 65
Even now we come, believing the big lie
We are the victims of Directive 65

Three score and five, marks the great age
They met at the stations, for the final stage
We suspect now, that the aged all will die
It’s just the plan, our production must thrive

We must move on, the force we can’t deny
We are the victims of Directive 65
Even now we come, believing the big lie
We are the victims of Directive 65

We are the victims of the lie
The victims of Directive 65
No, we can’t deny
We are, we are the victims of Directive 65




6. Mastermind

From the first day of your life you are drugged
In the water or any liquid you might drink
We don’t know when it started for sure
It controls the means to what you may think

Mastermind, to suppress the masses
Mastermind, it kills your drive
Mastermind, no one seems to know
Mastermind, until 65

Long ago, in time they discovered a way, they say
To keep us in, our place it seems forevermore and more
We never knew what the change was deep in our souls, so deep
All we knew was that we had no desire to fight, or change

They stole our minds
Nothing seems real
They took our memories
They destroyed our will
They killed our will

Mastermind, to suppress the masses
Mastermind, it kills your drive
Mastermind, no one seems to know
Mastermind, until 65




7. Cast The Glamor




8. CCF

They march ever night and day
And they feel, so very proud
They do their job with no remorse
As their fathers once did as well
The Citizen Containment Force
They know not what they do

They are the law, it’s what we’re taught
As long as we can recall
It’s an honor, to be part of the force
The gallant CCF, is given its due
The Citizen Containment Force
They know not what they do
Blindly following history
Not knowing the birth of misery

All shall serve two years to life
Do your job well and be released
No one seems to know the truth
Their world is only what they’re told

You can’t refuse you must abide it is required to conform
Resist and you will die execution awaits always near by
The Citizen Containment Force they know not what they do
Forgive them, they know not what they do




9. Free Us

We read of freedom in the books from long ago
Justice prevailed then this is what we know
It may take a long time before our final stand
It may take a lifetime before they understand

Freedom, free us, take the shackles let us be united
Free us, let us walk the streets now undenied

We have been fooled for years the old ones told it so
They recalled yesterday from tales they had been told
They hide inside the caves deep within the faults
We must listen now to their straight wise thoughts

Freedom, free us, take the shackles let us be united
Free us, let us walk the streets now undenied

Please free us I am still a man
Please free us now you will understand

You count your dirty money each and every night
As we sweat in the fields our life just isn’t right
All your wealth may buy things that you seek
Once it’s over and we’re strong you’ll face defeat

Freedom, free us, take the shackles let us be united
Free us, let us walk the streets now undenied
Free us, remove the shackles!
Free us!!! Freedom for all!




10. The Promised Land

We are told it seems, from our first breath
That one day we’d cross, over the mountains
The land of gods, with the angels too
To spend eternity, in love and harmony

We work for nothing and the hours are so long
We work for rations and the place we call home
The morning trains carry us to our jobs
Murmurs of slavery within the mobs

Nothing else matters it is our precious fate
We are promised our own perfect place
On and on the pattern goes, never to end
Until the holy day when life should begin

The Promised Land, is what we toil for all our life
The Promised Land, is why today is misery

The Promised Land, is what we toil for all our life
The Promised Land, is why today is misery

We are told that it is heaven on earth
We are told you shall never need
We are told to do your work well
We are told forever you will see

The Promised Land, our god given right
The Promised Land, The Promised Land
