Horror socialized, treated as verminous debris Victimized with no cause and never to conceive Actions full of shame, liberty in death Sickening hypocrisy, liberty in death SOLO Civil disobedience ostracized, common sense dismissed Gene pool piss, in confrontation, hopelessly at war with decency Rotten from the outside, liberty in death A life of misery, liberty in death Uh Ah Cease to be, incarcerated Final fate, crucifixion Horror socialized, treated as verminous debris Victimized with no cause and never to conceive Actions full of shame, liberty in death Sickening hypocrisy, liberty in death Rotten from the outside, liberty in death Liberty, liberty in death

Shock Wave 03:23
Witness the fallout, nuclear burst Heavenly sickness, no trace of life remains Havoc and damage, contaminated Light of destruction, through endless clouds of grey Lacerating radioactivity Shock wave, triumph of demise Lacerating radioactivity Shock wave, triumph of demise Ah! Worship extinction, no sense of guilt Voice of unreason, the screams gone unheard Wreckage and ruin, incineration Blackest of rain, descending from the skies Lacerating radioactivity Shock wave, triumph of demise Lacerating radioactivity Shock wave, triumph of demise Alpha, beta, gamma Burning from inside Vast consuming fires Cleansing for all time Fission eternal A Lethal destiny Terminal disruption Global atrophy Fission eternal Lethal destiny Terminal disruption Global atrophy Witness the fallout, nuclear burst Heavenly sickness, no trace of life remains Havoc and damage, contamination Light of destruction, through endless clouds of grey Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh / Ah

Capitulation 04:10
Past all hope, capitulation All that was, never to come again Things won’t change, we’re trapped in delusion Machinery, beyond control, impossible to stop… With trepidation, but widely opened eyes Completely lost, so just why, should we even care?! And on the edge of despair Every drop of blood we’ll spill Among the ruins of the past Open-ended trails of blight Beyond reclaim, no one to save us All that is, burst into flames We’re clenching the fist, screaming the inside We’re in decline, unstoppably, no chance to survive With trepidation, but widely opened eyes Completely lost, so just why, should we even care?! And every time we fail to see What’s gone is gone, eternally Yet our struggles will remain Clear-sighted fall into decay Capitulation Capitulation From loss we’ll rise… And on the edge of despair Every drop of blood we’ll spill Among the ruins of the past Open-ended trails of blight And every time we fail to see What’s gone is gone, eternally Yet our struggles will remain Clear-sighted fall into decay

Day in, day out Pounding pressure, boiling hate Chains of life hold you down Mind's turmoil, enemy within Pushed too far Mental collapse, no way out Pushed too far In the grip of fear Pushed too far Anger rising, storm of stress Pushed too far Lost it all, lost control Broken dreams, shattered hope The tunnel’s end is black as night Tripped again, one too many times Pushed too far All alone, dead end street Pushed too far Kill the fucking pain Pushed too far Break the circle, face the facts Pushed too far Pushed, pushed, pushed too far Stumbling through the darkness, your dreams are passing by Picking up a million shards of your former life Pointless effort, empty prayers, no helping hand in sight Aimless, hopeless, paralysed, waiting around to die Uah!!!! Your wretched soul Your fucking wretched soul Pushed too far Downward spiral, deathbound path Pushed too far Burnt out hollow shell Pushed too far Road towards your certain end Pushed too far Pushed too far

Distress 04:16
Anti-selection, critical risk Chain of decay thrown into disarray Prideful human disease, eager to please In times of glut, into the pit, we’ll stray… That’s how life goes, one direction, utter distress Scapegoat rituals, another’s account, exist in utter distress Altered perception, increasing debt Signs collapse again, too obvious to see Incurable sickness, affecting stability With each passing minute, deeper and deeper in the shit That’s how life goes, one direction, utter distress Scapegoat rituals, another’s account, exist in utter distress No guilt, no quarter Exist in utter distress Uuuuuhhhhhhh, days of grace Uuuuuhhhhhhh, rise to fall No guilt, no quarter Exist in utter distress No guilt, no quarter Exist in utter distress Uh Go! That’s how life goes, one direction, utter distress Scapegoat rituals, another’s account, exist in utter distress Uh!

Days Gone By 04:29
Ultimate truth, silence, mark my words Self-contradiction, how could I always disagree? I spoke too much, but not my mind, not openly Should have been listening, should have just tried to comprehend In days gone by Anxiety would last forevermore I won’t cave in This life of grief is not for me I clean the dust off my face Looking for answers in the here and now Soon I will know what to say Wishing you well, wishing that I could stay Ultimate truth, silence, mark my words Self-contradiction, how could I always disagree? I spoke too much, but not my mind, not openly Should have been listening, should have just tried to comprehend In days gone by Anxiety would last forevermore I won’t cave in This life of grief is not for me Uh! Hey! Horrible sight, dead cold stare in the face But then again I’m just a face in the crowd So let it be written, let it be done Deeds, not words, all along So let it be written, let it be done Deeds, not words, all along All along Uh In days gone by Anxiety would last forevermore I won’t cave in This life of grief is not for me I make my own destiny I make my own destiny
