1. Engines Of Oppression

Amass your armies of restitution
Extinquish the flames
of the privileged ones
Bow and succumb
to the one you call king
Or feel the wrath of destruction
Hear the cry, the tides of war
Feverishly knocking,
beckoning the door
Of future lives and who will be
Stand or fall and die
in the name of liberty

TRUTH IN ME
SIGHT I SEE
FIGHT IN ME
FREE I WILL BE

OPPRESSING THE WILL INSIDE ME

Blood flowing red upon
Streets desecrated, torn and singed
Bodies litter land I once called home
Blood boiling,
my skin starts to cringe
Clasped in the blackened chains
Of a tyrant's idea of sovereignty
Awaken the fire in your soul
Embodies is the word divinity

TRUTH IN ME
SIGHT I SEE
FIGHT IN ME
FREE I WILL BE

OPPRESSING THE WILL INSIDE ME

Life contained by granite walls
Freedom reigns, the idea to all
Tension mount
as we fight 'til the end
Anger fuels the means
to justify the end
Life or death
our only question to contend
Stand or fall the message
that we will send

TRUTH IN ME
SIGHT I SEE
FIGHT IN ME
FREE I WILL BE

OPPRESSIONG THE WILL INSIDE ME

2. Forever Burned

Omnious clouds linger above me
Winds of war blow ever so softly
Horizon's burning,
annihilation is calling
The looming of death
upon the land is crawling

FIRE REIGNS, FOREVER BURNED
IS THIS THE LAST OUR
WORLD WILL TURN
HOLLOWED CRUST, MELTED FACE
IMPERFECTIONS NOW ERASED
FIRE REIGNS, FOREVER BURNED
IS THIS THE LAST OUR
WORLD WILL TURN
HOLLOWED CRUST, MELTED FACE
IMPERFECTIONS NOW ERASED

Thunderous roar echoes in my head
Ashen, charred remains
of family now dead
An unending desert lays
before my eyes
Gone is tomorrow,
we never said goodbye

FIRE REIGNS, FOREVER BURNED
IS THIS THE LAST OUR
WORLD WILL TURN
HOLLOWED CRUST, MELTED FACE
IMPERFECTIONS NOW ERASED
FIRE REIGNS, FOREVER BURNED
IS THIS THE LAST OUR
WORLD WILL TURN
HOLLOWED CRUST, MELTED FACE
IMPERFECTIONS NOW ERASED

Raise the question,
when is war enough
Is it when your country lies
in rubble and in dust
Scorched earth, is that your wish
To end all life, struggling to exist

FIRE REIGNS, FOREVER BURNED
IS THIS THE LAST OUR
WORLD WILL TURN
HOLLOWED CRUST, MELTED FACE
IMPERFECTIONS NOW ERASED
FIRE REIGNS, FOREVER BURNED
IS THIS THE LAST OUR
WORLD WILL TURN
HOLLOWED CRUST, MELTED FACE
IMPERFECTIONS NOW ERASED

3. The Veil

Behind the wall of sleep
Distinctive deception lies
Born of treachery
Conceived in innocents'
baptismal blood
Side by side, line by line,
we march on
Waiting for the sign to come

BLIND MY EYES TO THIS FATE
WHAT WILL BE, WHO WILL SEE
THE WORDS LAID OUT
FOR ALL TO BREATHE
MUTE MY VOICE BEFORE TOO LATE
WHAT WILL BE, WHO WILL SEE
THE WORDS LAID OUT
FOR ALL TO BREATHE

Tears of restraint
with clenched fists
Defiant acts,
minds silenced to resist
Life a waste to this
Still we sway to the hypnotic eyes
The forked tongue weaves
unwavering lies
Tensions mount, arise

BLIND MY EYES TO THIS FATE
WHAT WILL BE, WHO WILL SEE
THE WORDS LAID OUT
FOR ALL TO BREATHE
MUTE MY VOICE BEFORE TOO LATE
WHAT WILL BE, WHO WILL SEE
THE WORDS LAID OUT
FOR ALL TO BREATHE

Consumed, restrained,
mirrored a voice
Their acts a vice for my choice
The plague's counterpoint
Darkness swallows the masked gift
Mired in misery
we swift, cradling hope
Looking to exist

BLIND MY EYES TO THIS FATE
WHAT WILL BE, WHO WILL SEE
THE WORDS LAID OUT
FOR ALL TO BREATHE
MUTE MY VOICE BEFORE TOO LATE
WHAT WILL BE, WHO WILL SEE
THE WORDS LAID OUT
FOR ALL TO BREATHE

4. Minds Of No Emotion

Shattered glass
of my euphoric reality
I lie in the blood
trickling around me
To soon were icy words spoken
Cold, frigid, dispassionate,
the laws of empathy were broken

MERCILESS MINDS
SAVOR THE PAIN
IN OTHERS YOU FIND
MERCILESS MINDS

Cauterized nerves
of my anesthetized state
Broken, calloused,
is there an answer to my fate
Cleansing my soul
amid this act of hostility
A day of judgement will fall upon
you, those who bathe in treachery

MERCILESS MINDS
SAVOR THE PAIN
IN OTHERS YOU FIND
MERCILESS MINDS

Twist the truth in me,
what do I see, can I believe
Scars that burn the same
still remain, cleanse them away
Haunting, anguished thoughts
in me rot, to whom was this taught
Inflicting pain, feel no shame,
a flick of the tongue to main

MERCILESS MINDS
SAVOR THE PAIN
IN OTHERS YOU FIND
MERCILESS MINDS

5. Rebirth

(инструментал)

6. Legacy Of Pain

Look on me and know your fate
The same as those who came before
My threter of grotesqueries
Welcomes your unanswered prayers
The sound of your anguish
Is a symphony to my ears

BUNDY, DAHMER, GACY, KEMPER,
SAVAGE THOUGH THEM SEEM
MERE SHADOW IN THE SANDS
OF TIME SUBORDINATE TO ME
BERKOWITZ, RAMIREZ
AND THE AMRERICAN PSYCHO GEIN
ALL PALE BEFORE
MY LEGACY OF PAIN

Your screams are meaningless to me
My ecstasy comes from your fear
Stained red steel of my blade
Into your flesh it disappears
Stab you to death
And play around with your blood

BUNDY, DAHMER, GACY, KEMPER,
SAVAGE THOUGH THEM SEEM
MERE SHADOW IN THE SANDS
OF TIME SUBORDINATE TO ME
BERKOWITZ, RAMIREZ
AND THE AMRERICAN PSYCHO GEIN
ALL PALE BEFORE
MY LEGACY OF PAIN

The depths of my atrocities
will haunt their minds eternal
I'll return unequalled
in this miserable world
Centuries after
I have joined you in the grave
Fear and dread instilled
when they speak my name

Feel it now inside you
carving my masterpiece
The blade cold as my heart
warmed by your blood
Your end has come now,
but I have just begun
Punishing all the world,
supremacy is mine

BUNDY, DAHMER, GACY, KEMPER,
SAVAGE THOUGH THEM SEEM
MERE SHADOW IN THE SANDS
OF TIME SUBORDINATE TO ME
BERKOWITZ, RAMIREZ
AND THE AMRERICAN PSYCHO GEIN
ALL PALE BEFORE
MY LEGACY OF PAIN

7. The Gates Of Irony

In darkness loom
our impending doom
The Hippocratic oath of man
Blood flows free,
the religious in our hands
To pray is the way or else die today
The stones that they cast
Backed by fools, regurgitating rules
Of history gone past

OPEN UP YOUR EYES
DECADENCE IN DISGUISE
MARTYRS MARCHING BLIND
REASON HARD TO FIND

Our life's a trial
of unending reprisal
Damned by wrong or rights
The self-righteous fool
who only played the rules
Spoiled in his plight
Words painting words,
convincing when heard

Especially by weakest of minds
Obsessed to begin
the isolation of sin
The system works
time after time

OPEN UP YOUR EYES
DECADENCE IN DISGUISE
MARTYRS MARCHING BLIND
REASON HARD TO FIND

Marching onward to our fate
The past and present collide,
is it too late
The blind still see
in the absence of light
Convert or die,
kneel to the sword or fight

The wind's blowing softly,
clinging to the plains
The crown of sorrow glistens,
steadying its reign
The city of stone crumbles,
toppled by its weight
The path is uncertain,
each must find their own way

Factions killing factions,
hatred their reaction
Righteous is their claim
Damned by birth, back to the earth
Sprouting from where you came
Phantoms grown, our minds in tow
Crawling through embers of red
Patriarchs bearing the mark
Hypnotized by what is said

8. Descension Into Madness

Heavy are my eyes
as I wade into the black
Malicious is my intent,
control is what I lack

TAKE ME DOWN INTO THE FLAME
LUSTING TO INFLICT PAIN
TAKE ME DOWN INTO THE FLAME
LUSTING FOR PAIN

Vicious are minds
when reason slips away
Dust in the sands of time,
sanity's decay

TAKE ME DOWN INTO THE FLAME
LUSTING TO INFLICT PAIN
TAKE ME DOWN INTO THE FLAME
LUSTING FOR PAIN

Crippling, the lure of release
Escalating is this disease
Shackled to this affliction
Agonized writhing, my crucifixion

Now I have become two joined
as one, new life has begun
Sights upon your dream, things
that I feed, damned by the need
A sick twisted mind is all that
you'll find, thoughtless my crimes
Echoes of death,
icy cold breath, body in wreck

The end is closing in on me
Only me solution can set me free

Forgive me for my sins
The barrel's caressing my skin
I turn and face the sky
The hammer cocks and now I die

9. To Dust

Remnants of tomorrow
litter the streets
The smell of dismissal
mixed with defeat
Pardoned, portrayed,
looking back who was saved
The architect aspires
for the groundwork is laid
Apathetic views
exemplify the reprisal
Masked in horro
there's no room for survival
Towers crumble
amid acts of desperation
Thought and sight
before retaliation

I HAVE SEEN
DEATH'S ECHOING DREAM
MIRRORED BY THE PAST,
VISIONS OF WHO'S LAST

TO DUST I WEEP
AS THE SANDS SLOWLY SEEPS
BENEATH MY HANDS
FALLING UPON THE LAND

Feel the cold grasp of ironic fate
The hands of time creep as
you ponder and wait
When did we decide
that the ends and the means

Justify extinguishing
all of our dreams
Is the potency
worth the transgression
When the lust is so great
it becomes your obsession
Who decides who's god
and who is man
Life's been forsaken,
thrust to the damned

I HAVE SEEN
DEATH'S ECHOING DREAM
MIRRORED BY THE PAST,
VISIONS OF WHO'S LAST

TO DUST I WEEP
AS THE SANDS SLOWLY SEEPS
BENEATH MY HANDS
FALLING UPON THE LAND

Remnants of tomorrow litter the streets
The smell of dismissal mixed with defeat
Pardoned, portrayed, looking back who was saved
The architect aspires for the groundwork is laid
Apathetic views exemplify the reprisal
Masked in horro there's no room for survival
Towers crumble amid acts of desperation
Thought and sight before retaliation

10. Remembrance

(инструментал)

11. Laid To Rest

Fire bursts, brilliant flash of light
Mutilated and alone,
hopeless is my plight
Flesh bubbling, excoriates away
Life and death calling,
do I die today

MINDS BEG TO MEND
COMPASSION'S AT ITS BITTER END

MARCH...
UNTIL YOUR LAST BREATH
MARCH... INTO YOUR DEATH
MARCH...
UNTIL YOUR LAST BREATH
MARCH... INTO DEATH

Unspoken scream,
numb to the myriad of dead
Friends once filled with life
are numbers now instead
Silent eyes, void of zealous vigor
Thoughts and remembrances
remain to linger

MINDS BEG TO MEND
COMPASSION'S AT ITS BITTER END

MARCH...
UNTIL YOUR LAST BREATH
MARCH... INTO YOUR DEATH
MARCH...
UNTIL YOUR LAST BREATH
MARCH... INTO DEATH

Blackened roar
ruptures the darkened sky
Lucidity and emotion,
daily they are tried
Arbitrary choice,
distinguishing what is real
Pain, sorrow and anguish
are all that I can feel
