The Collapse Of Sanity
08:47
|
|||
Rise
This grave is for your mind
Your mind self-destructs and disintegrates
Leaving behind a hollow, empty shell
Is this sanity slipping away,
Or just the emptiness of a personal hell?
As your thoughts degenerate
Into the darkest paths of time,
You struggle to collect your thoughts
Of violence in your mind
I am the depths of your consciousness
The darker side of your reality
I am what drives us all to the brink
Of delirium and insanity
Laughing at the fragility
Of the normal state of being
As your mind begins to crumble,
Your reason begins to bleed.
As your emotions die, you succumb to nothingness
Lifeless thoughts and empty hate prevails
Apathy permeates where once there was light
The will to live slowly fades and fails
The days become endless blurs of time
With no resolution in sight
As reality blurs and slips away,
You watch yourself burn in your mind.
Burn...
I am the depths of your consciousness
The darker side of your reality
I am what drives us all to the brink
Of delirium and insanity
Laughing at the fragility
Of the normal state of being
As your mind begins to crumble,
Your reason begins to bleed.
This grave is for your mind;
This grave is lost in time.
This grave is for your mind;
The only one of its kind.

Generation Pathetic
06:15
|

I have lost the will to live
In this miserable space of time
No compassion left inside
For a world that's fucking blind
Force-fed misery,
I seek a reprieve that never comes
Drowning in a sea of hate,
I despise what you've become
I fucking hate this world.
If I could, I'd burn you all alive.
Watch my fucking flag unfurl.
I'll stake my claim, and watch you rot inside.
I fucking hate this world.
Your ignorance is a pathetic waste of life.
Silence is the loudest fucking word.
The darkest days of our lives will come in due time.
You are the hopeless, the pathetic...
Praying for survival
You are the cursed, you are the jaded...
Waiting for revival.
I have lost the will to live
In your degraded waste of life
I have no empathy left
For the weak and willfully blind
Force-fed agony
You'll seek the reprieve that never comes
Drowning in my sea of hate,
But I don't give a fuck.
I fucking hate this world.
If I could, I'd burn you all alive.
Watch my fucking flag unfurl.
I'll stake my claim, and watch you rot inside.
I fucking hate this world.
Your ignorance is a pathetic waste of life.
Silence is the loudest fucking word.
The darkest days of our lives will come in due time.
Go fuck yourself; nobody fucking cares.

Worldwide Reich
05:31
|
|||
Bleed me free of this disease,
And wash away the memories
The world we raped lives no more
It has been purged and will be reborn.
No life, no soul.
No stories to be told.
No survivors, nothing left
Of a heartless truth we could not accept.
This world will rot.
This world will burn.
This is the aftermath.
This is the world in tears.
This is the ultimate cleansing.
Fear not: The Worldwide Reich is here.
Slit your throats now;
Burn it all down...
Exterminate it now;
Burn it to the ground.
Burn it to the ground.
Burn.
This is the aftermath.
This is the world in tears.
This is the ultimate cleansing.
Fear not: The Worldwide Reich is here.

The Black Plague
03:53
|
|||
Fear for your lives;
There's no running this time.
Lock yourself inside your home;
And make sure you're all alone.
This is the end of days
Now it seems there's no escape
They want this world to end;
The plague is upon this world again.
There's no way out of this hell;
A vital piece to make sure the world fell...
To wipe the scourge from the face of the earth,
Again the Black Plague now proves its worth.
Watch it all burn;
Wipe us from this earth.
Watch it all burn;
Give this race what it deserves.
Cry.....just let us die.
Just let us die.
The sickness that was in our hearts,
Now returned to tear us apart.
The sickness that was in our hearts
Will tear us apart.

Shallow Grave
04:59
|
|||
I tried to warn you all
No one heard my desperate calls
I tried to warn you all
Now I'll watch as you all fall
Tie this rope around my neck,
What the fuck did you expect?
(I'll) close my eyes and drift away
While you live in pain, day after day
This is the end of our lives
This is the end of my time
But I won't stay and live a lie
Shut the lights off; say goodbye
This is my suicide
This is how I choose to die
While you're all left here wondering why,
Your world falls apart, right before your eyes.
Bury me in a shallow grave;
No one here will remember my name.
Bury me in a shallow grave;
I never gave a fuck about your pain.
I tried to warn you all
No one saw me scratch and claw
I tried to warn you all
I'll be dead while you all fall
The rope digs into my throat
My eyes bulge as I begin to choke
The weight pulls the life from me
Soon enough I'll finally be free
Some of us choose to end our lives
In the oncoming storm at the end of time
The rest of you choose to live your lies
(But I) shut the lights off and said goodbye
This is my suicide
This is how I choose to die
While you're all left here wondering why,
Your world falls apart, right before your eyes.
Bury me in a shallow grave;
No one here will remember my name.
Bury me in a shallow grave;
I never gave a fuck about your pain.
I tried to warn you all.
I tried to warn you all.

Genocide For Survival
03:47
|
|||
State-sanctioned genocide
Who decides who lives and who dies?
The weak-willed are culled by other means,
Slaughter the strong through lies and deceit
Extermination: A tactical reprieve
From the chaos and insanity
Calculated murder in droves
They'll infiltrate your lives and burn down your home
Burn down your home.
Nowhere to turn; this is life on the run
For the crime of life can't be undone
A necessary evil has begun...
No reason to fight; they've already won.
The brilliant, the best: A bullet to the chest;
The broken and betrayed: The only ones left.
The blood will run free in these dark streets;
They'll destroy your lives, and set us free.
State-sanctioned genocide
Who decides who lives and who dies?
State-sanctioned genocide...
...I decide who lives and who dies.

The Idiocratic Solution
06:17
|
|||
I create hate.
I thrive on the bitter conflict
I come alive at the satisfaction I get
Showing the world what worthless pieces of shit,
Pathetic wastes of space, you all are.
I create hate.
I find solace in tearing you all down;
I find amusement in watching you all drown.
Circle the drain as you sit and pound your face
Against the wall, as you scream aloud.
I create hate.
The worst part about ignorance is that it isn't always bliss.
You all wander around fucking blind to everything you've ever missed
I won't apologize; go slit your fucking wrists
Don't struggle, don't worry...
There's no time to deal with this.
Genocide...mass suicide...
I fail to see a better way.
Darwin was wrong; the weak survived all along...
Nothing else will take them away.
I create hate.
Kill yourself; make the world a better place.
Kill yourself; breathe in my hate.

Aftermath
06:00
|
|||
Now that this world is bleak,
Tell me now what you see...
Will you believe in a better way?
Now that we've purged the weak
And lost all that we've seen,
Can we rebuild, or throw it all away?
Was it all for naught?
Oh God, what have we wrought?
The sun finally rises this day,
To shine on the ashes of our blaspheme
The unspeakable horrors we've seen
Have left us cold, unable to breathe.
The end of hope gave way to the genocide,
The end of our rope has led us astray.
The unspeakable horrors we've seen
Have doomed us all; these mistakes will repeat.
These mistakes will repeat.

Messiah
05:01
|
|||
Rise again; make me believe
In your lies, again...laid at our feet.
Kneel before the next great Messiah
Fear the storm if you challenge the liars.
Kneel before me now;
Watch as the masses bow.
Plead for mercy here;
Pray for all you hold dear.
Weak...they're all weak.
Pathetic repeats of all our mistakes
All the damage we've left in our wake
The cycle ends when this whole world is doomed
We don't give a fuck; we're built to consume.
