Blood Meridian 04:40
lyrics
Suck down another line Pull wool over eyes Enlisted, pissing in the wind Stark white words they shine I guess we’ll cast aside the past Unmasking marks the time Quicken the knife the cuts are clean Wipe it down again A grin, you spin behind your teeth It comes crashing The rush of the kill, divine Power of life distilled A flash in the pan The sick lunatic Heart full of darkness is No choice, no voice, no chance to kick Disease far away It seems to overwhelm What will it take to beat the machine? Quicken the knife the cuts are clean Wipe it down again A grin, you spin behind your teeth It comes crashing The rush of the kill, divine Power of life distilled A flash in the pan Dangers mount FORCE IT OUT This decaying soul is saying, “Have to feed until whole” Seek and you will find Hosts of unseemly kind The hands of which you blindly pushed Your time has come to reap the seed that’s sown Alone, you stand over your own Quicken the knife the cuts are clean Wipe it down again A grin, you spin behind your teeth It comes crashing The rush of the kill, divine Power of life distilled A flash in the pan Ride out, reach in Endless ticking Time is the victim Who will survive, and what will be left of them?

Burn 04:02
lyrics
A ship in mutiny led to a slaughtering The red blaze out upon the waves Through my line of men shout, run the gunnery Row forth beyond suffering “Blood” men shouting The dead make them insane Try to pray, their god turned them away Instead they sail, burn all the sin away The lunacy- dark in light of day They seek the crawling in their brains Rape the innocent, I fear, Measures drawing near Cut quick before fomenting Pick apart latter days can’t reveal a proper slave Oh madonna of sea, please show me prophecy Oh no, no, no, no The flesh, weak as the fight they wage Still on they drive, to live or die, for nothing but the fame Cry to be saved, oh no No, it will never change No more sorrow, the tide shall burn Can’t rearrange the lies we’ll turn Burn the bodies to save us from this fate Oh no, no, no, no You raid, your blood still knows these seas The fight, the fight will never fade

What's In A Name? 03:57
lyrics
The straw man is plucked clean But the mind keeps running to another refrain Trapped in a game Fugue states remain Cruelest intentions sworn to social corruption Accept the fall from grace Born under a sign that I can’t hold on Bound up through a whirlwind twisting inside But the real war outside is the world Turn over sights, turn over sounds Build up the walls and burn ‘em down Screaming on a collision course to ruin Abandon hope who enter here What’s in a name? You know it’s all the same What’s in a name? Fear has a face Can’t turn away Got something to say? Passions can’t reform before the lies rip it out again The simplest form Of the greatest storms released upon the earth Contained in a single word A rage, a cage, a rusting stage Hostile assault of the intelligent mind Turn over sights, turn over sounds Build up the walls and burn em down Screaming on a collision course to ruin Abandon hope who enter here What’s in a name? You know it’s all the same What’s in a name? Fear has a face What’s in a name? You know it’s all the same What’s in a name? Call me crazy Told you can’t beat, then why bother standing in the way? Thinking in time we’ll reach some meaning In the end- you stand to poison the visions of what’s real A righteous piece of shit, you cry What’s in a name? You know the sin’s the same What’s in a name? Call me crazy What’s in a name? What’s in a name? What’s in a goddamn motherfuckin’ name?!

Four On The Floor 04:44
lyrics
SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the Thought it’d be fun to come undone Pop off the rounds like ONE TWO THREE So effortless a chaotist you crave the anarchy Sirens sound, still mowing down The bodies drop at ONE TWO THREE Still want more the bullets soar until the final score All you loved you shot away Life in nevermore The death wish will be satisfied When four are on the floor No more SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the Do you see the figures in your mind As you snuff ‘em out like ONE TWO THREE Gasping, crying, begging please Or is just a faceless dream? Just a waste what will it take To break the curse the THIRST AIN’T FREE Struggle inside, you can’t hide the heat The firefight All you loved you shot away Life in nevermore The death wish will be satisfied When four are on the floor No more SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the Fight a blistering night Through appetites of bloodened lines Drawn on your face Your mind displaced without a trace Total disgrace Nothing will hold you now Forest for the trees Kiss away all sense of peace Because your choice to seize The single moment of monstrosity Feverish delight they drop like flies Buried far within the LUSTFUL DEEP Every exhale, smoke on your trail Dissolves into the veil Tension builds as blood is spilled Splashing bright red on BLACK CONCRETE The lights go dim, the room it spins Collapsed, you greet your end All you loved you shot away Life in nevermore The death wish will be satisfied When four are on the floor No more SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT four on the floor SHOOT SHOOT there’s four on the

Bring Out The Dead 05:10
lyrics
Greatest of men begin within Greatest of lies overthrown Walking sewer streets, Through faces weeping blood The masses coming fast here Trail of dead is in the wake, The graveyard sellers running red Dig a grave and fill it up, Now you’ll see what life is worth Gone is sorrow, drowned in flame Far as you see everything is fallen to the ground Bring us your breath, bring us your fear Til there’s nothing left to fight Lay down your guns, lay down your life See how much there is to stand Oh the seething, resurrecting The souless moves up through the earth Gone is sorrow, drowned in flame Far as you see everything is fallen to the ground Bring us your breath, bring us your fear ‘Til there’s nothing left to fight You know you can't go on like this Bruised on your hands cannot make a fist Slow the breath, lower the brow, just keep your head down Release the howling throngs of feeding death Close eyes shut and forget the gnashing teeth Strips away, the flesh is bare Life is thrown away for another to be born out of fear Just another day of fools reveling the awful knowing The ending days of mankind’s light is blown away

Hand Of Doom 07:28
lyrics
Whatcha gonna do? Time's caught up with you Now you wait your turn You know there's no return Take your written rules You join the other fools Turn to something new Now it's killing you First it was the bomb Vietnam napalm Disillusioning You push the needle in From life you escape Reality's that way Colours in your mind Satisfy your time Oh you, you know you must be blind To do something like this To take the sleep that you don't know You're giving death a kiss, oh, little fool now Your mind is full of pleasure Your body's looking ill To you it's shallow leisure So drop the acid pill, Don't stop to think now You're having a good time baby But that won't last Your mind's all full of things You're living too fast Go out enjoy yourself Don't bottle it in You need someone to help you To stick the needle in, yeah Now you know the scene Your skin starts turning green Your eyes no longer seeing Life's reality Push the needle in, Face death's sickly grin Holes are in your skin, Caused by deadly pin Head starts spinning 'round You fall down to the ground Feel your body heave Death's hands starts to weave It's too late to turn You don't want to learn Price of life you cry Now you're gonna die

Caught In The Undertow 05:14
lyrics
And soon the dark swell will claim my mind And soon terrors fade into the night Yet someday wretched design will reach up and pull me down You can’t run and you can’t fight Kiss from an abyss that hides Past is calling, the hammering sea And I struggle to break free You will return the shame Running in circles running the game You run to hideaway No man tries to tame you Up underside of world Understand the line is thrown to undertow Caught in undertow I seek out the tomb beyond There covered from the sun Around it the ocean foams a red And remains out on the rock You run to hideaway No man tries to claim you Up underside of world Understand what’s saved Blind in the sands of time you stay and lay to hide Say, you say you wait for earth to die Earth to die Your only sorrow is the one you couldn't carry down into the dark Given all you could you slowly slip away where the cold embraces you Goodbye to ever feeling The wonderful again Kiss all the beauty and the shame in the undertow Caught in the undertow

Seasons Of Love And Pain 05:44
lyrics
(This may be the last time I see the sun) Through tears, I scream “run away” Oh, innocence is shoved inside Incinerate the souls alight Exonerate the fear in sight Your blood, it mingles with my own There thundering inside The tithes they turn, they turn away Turn, seasons of love and pain A sea running down onto me Water takes the pain all night From a saving to a severing Your exile, it lives inside of me What was done feels right, it’s right We’ll wander down the road For light, I’m warm from a sun long gone Gone until we wake The world outside wants our shame laid out But I'm no longer saved Don’t say I'm tired of the world inside of me It won’t take away Oh, the seasons of love and pain Will the drowning stone bring me down Or am I gonna last the rains of time The sun stays warm, ashes thrown away no more Love’s soldier on the road I die, a rose upon the rain Waste your sweet lies, I don’t hear No, I will rise, I will run Face worn into the flames, until the day ‘Til next tide- the farthest sum rises to demand Seasons of love and pain

Forsaken 04:04
lyrics
Wrong side suffer the consequence A razor’s edge, step to the ledge, loss of sense Marching into the final draw Fates have settled yet we forget it all Their faces are wasted Left to fray You've forsaken the resistance Fed today Souls here are tied up in a wall of fear And the riddle will unravel with a single tear All the lies mount up so high And the pyres burn away any innocent cries Their faces are wasted Left to fray You've forsaken the resistance Fed today Still we take from those mistakes Only chain what we can't fake Return ourselves cradle and grave No more to gain and nothing to brave Choke down, chew up Entire lives drown in a final cup You can't lie to me When your flesh’s intention betrays the veneer Issue a warning From the tortured lips Blistered, bruised and raw Found an empty room Filled with the stench of truth Swallowed up inside Seeping out through wounds Judges will assume every traitor spent With extreme awareness None will perish til recompense Found a tomb of unrest The crumbling world, I stress Bringer of birth and death Their faces are wasted Left to fray You've forsaken the resistance Fed today Still we take from those mistakes Only chain what we can't fake Return ourselves cradle and grave No more to gain and nothing to brave
