Dead Inside

Dead Inside
locked in a hole
darkness around
paralyzed, no control
I am each and every sound
thoughts like a rope
that break my eyes
cannot breathe, cannot cope
with this vortex of loss still alive
dead inside, a dying shell
a life in denial, this living hell
dead inside, my dying world
there’s no way out, of this living hell
total collapse
life’s falling down
lost control of what makes me
lost my kingdom and my crown
entangled in grief
deprived of a sense
there is peace in indifference
peace like poison to life
suffocating on my thoughts, my inner self is killing me
total loss of harmony, I‘m on the edge of sanity
heading for disaster, I’m exhausted to the core
will to live is fading, cannot take this anymore
dead inside, a dying shell
a life in denial, this living hell
dead inside, my tired self
all efforts seem futile, in this living hell
dead inside, my dying world
where’s my way out, of this living hell?
this living hell

Left To Fate

Left To Fate
aligned, compelled to follow suit
built to measure, not to last
purposeless, shaped and standardized
in chains until the very end?
self-ignition, inner surrender
we're left to fate, to misfortune
internal combustion, incineration
we're left to fate, scorching memory
in reality, will takes unlearning
will it cease to be? will it be set free?
god-forsaken, freed for all time?
entrenched until the last breath
an eye for an eye, then a tooth for a tooth
we're left to fate, all in vain
isn't it all the same? this frantic search
we're left to fate, meant to prevail
struggle for eternity
unearthly predestination
lost cause, there's no meaning to life
rise above, leave it all behind
why bother? we’re left to fate!
self-ignition, inner surrender
we're left to fate, to misfortune
internal combustion, incineration
we're left to fate, scorching memory

Gridlock

Gridlock
running through a maze of doubts
left turn, right turn, no way out
life serves you a pile of shit
dreamer, gambler, hypocrite
gridlock – gridlock
time is up, the beaten one stays down
gridlock – gridlock
time is up, the beaten one stays down
inevitable consequence
attritional ambivalence
unconditional disdain
force-fed on self-hate, thriving on pain
gridlock – gridlock
time runs through your fingers like sand
gridlock – gridlock
time runs through your fingers like sand
as years go by
surrender life
oblivion awaits
the ones who fail
gridlock – gridlock
downhill race through everlasting night
gridlock – gridlock
downhill race through everlasting night

Alongside Hell

Alongside Hell
plastic death, widely dispersed
toxic pollution, incredible magnitude
under the surface, where all the colours fade
lurks decay, impossible to contain
we roam on a razor’s edge
alongside hell
collective guilt, anti-social lifestyle
twisting truths, as ignorance is bliss
garbage patch, a floating disgrace
it’s do or die, the end of the line
we dwell lost in the maze
alongside hell
the void, all that remains
alongside hell
come hell or high water, a rude awakening
marine debris, blood-red heavy seas
no restitution, we’re running out of time
and no one can wash, their hands in innocence!
we roam on a razor’s edge
alongside hell
we dwell lost in the maze
alongside hell
the void, all that remains
alongside hell
the void, all that remains

Vortex Of Torment

Vortex Of Torment
under the threatening darkened city skies
the Eastern winds blow cold
December dawn, the creeping fear
winter’s stranglehold
walking through the evening streets
hostile concrete gorge
mankind’s ulceration
growing evermore
isolated
societal demise
precipitate the ruin
demoralized
the old deceptive glory
hollowed out and dead
the snow covers the filth
but soon will turn from white to black
vortex of torment – where did all go wrong?
vortex of torment – so it shall be done
vortex of everlasting torment
vortex of everlasting torment
through these urban canyons
through shrouds of fog and ice
rime covers the windows
dim the fading lights
no shelter for those wasted lives
where’s your promised land?
immolated
in the fires of decadence
roaring hailstorms cleanse the streets, mortal grip of frost
skeletons of stone and steel, wasteland of the lost
as your temples crumble, hope withers away
domain of no return, death is here to stay
death is here to stay
vortex of torment – misery’s command
vortex of torment – death shadow descent
vortex of everlasting torment
vortex of eternal death
vortex of everlasting torment
vortex of eternal death

Spiritual Arsonists

Spiritual Arsonists
turned upside down, incredibly, morale fallen to pieces
gone off the rails, fanatically, social order collapsed
mirror worlds, sign of the times?
spiritual arsonists
propagandistic, causer of crimes
spiritual arsonists
shifting the blame, fanning the flames, crisis phenomena
incriminate, obliterate, endless impulse to destroy
mirror worlds, sign of the times?
spiritual arsonists
propagandistic, causer of crimes
spiritual arsonists
step by step, further down the drain, steering towards disaster
piece by piece, plunging into ruin, can’t you see where this is headed?
step by step, conspirative to be, still standing on the sidelines
piece by piece, devil in disguise, foul manipulator of the weak
kill ‘em all
spiritual arsonists
kill ‘em all
spiritual arsonists

No Tomorrow

No Tomorrow
an inconvenient certainty, too hard to grasp and believe?
this elusive reality, is life not what we once had hoped it would be?
arise!
cold, shattered world
no tomorrow!
our days are numbered
no tomorrow
terminal beliefs, through the eyes of others we see
we’ve given up control, deferring destiny
but we all have to play the hand we’re dealt
arise!
cold, shattered world
no tomorrow
our days are numbered
no tomorrow
what did it take for us to come this far?
to put our minds at violability
we all just live for today
and from despair we must awake

The Echoes Of Doom
living your life, believe in what’s right
personal freedom, put up a fight
where will you go when there’s nowhere to hide?
behold – the echoes of doom
raising your game when the stock’s getting tight
devil may care, you were made to survive
what will you say when it can’t be undone?
behold – the echoes of doom
it cannot be what may not be
while you repress, look up to the sun
and it will be what may not be
your meteor is coming, and there’s nowhere to run
conservative bullshit, born of denial
praising the old times while nature holds trial
they’ll make you no tool, you won‘t take their shit
you manliest fool, just another halfwit
what will you miss when there’s nothing but gloom?
behold – the echoes of doom
behold – the echoes of doom
behold – the echoes of doom

Excessive Force
eyes of madness, burning red
brain feels like it’s bursting out of every orifice
can’t lose what you never had
my sanity’s demise, kill me or I’ll kill you with...
excessive force
excessive force
mortal agony into aggression
thinking being with severe inherent vice
channeling my guilt into destruction
razor’s edge, verge of hate, kill me or I’ll kill you with...
excessive force
excessive force
live for nothing, die for less
parasitic scum
eradicate, exterminate
now I see you run
social outcast, victimized
sickening form of life
collective culpability
abhorrent genotype
excessive force
excessive force
excessive force
excessive force
excessive force
excessive force
kill me or I’ll kill you with...
excessive force

Fire And Fury
fire and fury, the means of true men
a change has to come, it’s now and not then
rolling up sleeves, with pats on the back
liberty thieves, unleashed is the pack
and by the seventh day, the earth had turned to dust
total destruction, by the grace of ourselves
hatemongers rising, applauded and hailed
scapegoating losers, for your life plan failed
tied up in chains, of the worst kind
emptiness filled with hate, proxy wars in your mind
what’s your contribution
to a bitter world
fire and fury, fire and fury
what’s your contribution
to a bitter world
fire and fury, fire and fury
with his mind set afire, the arsonist aims
for what once laid in beauty, to see perish in flames
and by the seventh day, the earth had turned to dust
total destruction, by the grace of ourselves
what’s your contribution
to a bitter world
fire and fury, fire and fury
what’s your contribution
to a bitter world
fire and fury, fire and fury
what’s your contribution
to a better world
fire and fury, fire and fury
what’s your contribution
to a better world
fire and fury, fire and fury
Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire!

supported by 24 fans who also own “"Fallout"”
The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity. Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder

Knife - Knife
by Dying Victims Productions
supported by 24 fans who also own “"Fallout"”
German power metal, with hints of thrash and a high-pitched vocal reminiscent of the traditional new wave. I really enjoy these fast-paced melodic neck-wrecking punkish classics. Brings me back to my youth's first steps in metal with W.A.S.P. and similar...

by Chapel Of Disease
supported by 22 fans who also own “"Fallout"”
Man, what a unique death metal experience. There is something old school and familiar about this album but the performance is done in a way I’ve never heard before. If you’re looking for something different, you’ve definitely found it here. 9/10

Seven Crowns and Seven Seals
by Sulphur Aeon
supported by 19 fans who also own “"Fallout"”
Nobody does death metal quite like Sulphur Aeon. Meticulously crafted dark and brooding atmosphere that oozes with Lovecraftian horrors. This release might not be as punchy as their previous two but it’s still excellent. 8/10
