Nightmare Burning
04:30
|
|||
I am the shadow of belief
I am that prostitute of grief
I am Diablos incarnate
I am the residue of hate
I am that symphony of screams
I am the horror inside your dreams
I am the harbinger of gloom
I reap my malevolence and doom
I am the monster in your soul
Come to take complete control
I build a tower of deceit
And watch it fall before my feet
I take the fragments of your being
Devour them and send you screaming
I suspend your disbelief
I am the villain I’m the thief
I am the dream as you perceive
The subtle ways that you can’t see
I make the world seem something new
I mutilate and draw askew
I am the angel you despise
I bring salvation masked in lies
I am the nightmare in your mind
That warps all judgment for all time
Welcome to my dream descending
Into torment never ending
Welcome to my nightmare burning
(Nightmare)
Welcome to my nightmare burning
Flesh on fire, sex and dying
Girls in leather they are dancing
On my grave they are romancing
How is it my head is spinning
Am I Satan am I sinning
Rip my teeth out as I’m screaming
Flesh for Flesh, am I still dreaming
I am the shadow of belief
I am that prostitute of grief
I am Diablos incarnate
I am the residue of hate
I am that symphony of screams
I am the horror inside your dreams
I am the harbinger of gloom
I reap my malevolence and doom
I am the monster in your soul
Come to take complete control
I build a tower of deceit
And watch it fall before my feet
I take the fragments of your being
Devour them and send you screaming
I suspend your disbelief
I am the villain I’m the thief
Welcome to my nightmare burning
(Nightmare)
Welcome to my nightmare burning
Flesh on fire, sex and dying
Girls in leather they are dancing
On my grave they are romancing
How is it my head is spinning
Am I Satan am I sinning
Rip my teeth out as I’m screaming
Flesh for Flesh am I still dreaming

Circle of Sin
05:15
|
|||
Deep in the circle of sin
Your sanity starts to unwind
Witness the torment within
Here in this circle of mine
Deep in this circle of sin
Where nothing will come to an end
I pray for escape in my time
But Limbo is taking my mind
Between the teeth of a gargoyle’s smile
There’s a place where ambiguity reigns
Falling away to the circle of naught,
Into nothing, the void, into Limbo I stay
Deep in the circle of sin
Your sanity starts to unwind
Witness the torment within
Here in this circle of mine
Deep in this circle of sin
Where nothing will come to an end
I pray for escape in my time
But Limbo is taking my mind
Between the teeth of a gargoyle’s smile
There’s a place where ambiguity reigns
Falling away to the circle of naught,
Into nothing, the void, into Limbo I stay
You murdered the world.
Tore it from within,
Devoured what it gave,
Welcomed oblivion.
You desecrated the shrine.
Pissed away the dream,
burned away the earth,
And raped the deepest sea.
That satisfying smile
That persecuting grin
You climbed the highest mound of mud
Looked down and took it in.
See the looming black sun.
The apocalypse comes.
Smell the oceans of fear,
As damnation draws near.
By the whites of their eyes,
Hear the piteous cries,
‘twas a murder of crows
That brought me to Limbo
Deep in the circle of sin
Your sanity starts to unwind
Witness the torment within
Here in this circle of mine
Deep in this circle of sin
Where nothing will come to an end
I pray for escape in my time
But Limbo is taking my mind
Between the teeth of a gargoyle’s smile
There’s a place where ambiguity reigns
Falling away to the circle of naught,
Into nothing, the void, into Limbo I stay

Die Anger
04:01
|
|||
Anger's not the word for these feelings that I have.
Words lose all their meaning when you turn them into pain.
Pain does not exist, within the rumble of my mind.
And thunder in my thinking has me thinking I'll explode.
Die Anger Die
Die Anger Die
Grrr Anger Violence Pain
Grrr Anger Violence Pain
Grrr Anger Violence Pain
Grrr Anger Violence Pain
Hate is not a thought that travels fleeting through my head.
And violence has no meaning unless accompanied by pain.
Fear remains a friend, that is, until the bitter end.
And loathing coins a taste the only complements the hate.
Die Anger Die
Die Anger Die
Grrr Anger Violence Pain
Grrr Anger Violence Pain
Grrr Anger Violence Pain
Grrr Anger Violence Pain
DIE - DIE - DIE - DIE
Die Anger Die
Die Anger Die

The Human Condition
05:08
|
|||
All the things we’ve come to love,
Materials we’ve made,
Meaningless accessories,
In the dawn of this new age.
Could it be that we weren’t thinking
When we cast our final stones.
It’s all upset the balance, it is we that lost control.
The Human condition, Conditioned me.
There was no transition, I was blind and now I see.
The Human condition, Is Suffering,
There was no transformation, I was blind and now I see
Our step by step psychology,
is cryptic and obscene.
Hiding secrets within secrets,
Mask the company we keep.
What is it that we were thinking,
Now that we are on our knees?
We’re not just out of order,
We’ve become our own disease.
The Human condition, Conditioned me.
There was no transition, I was blind and now I see.
The Human condition, Is Suffering.
There was no transformation, I was blind and now I see.

Lange Regen

Hello darkness my old friend,
I’ve come to sit with you again,
I have been driven to your side,
I must console my wounded pride.
I can’t tell you how I feel,
‘Cause everything is so unreal,
At times like this I have to bear the pain,
At times like this I really need the rain,
To wash away my doubts and fears,
‘Cause this depression makes it clear,
This is the longest rain I’ve known,
And I am never coming home.
When I look into your eyes,
I need some time to realize,
I need some time to think things through,
I need some time to be with you,
I can’t tell you how I feel,
‘Cause everything is so unreal,
At times like this I have to bear the pain,
At times like this I really need the rain,
To wash away my doubts and fears,
‘Cause this depression makes it clear,
This is the longest rain I’ve known,
And I am never coming home.
Hello suffering and pain,
I’ve come to visit you again,
I recognize the these aches of old,
And I recall this bitter cold,
I feel the raindrops on my skin,
Echoes of emptiness within,
I can’t tell you how I feel,
‘Cause everything is so unreal,
At times like this I have to bear the pain,
At times like this I really need the rain,
To wash away my doubts and fears,
‘Cause this depression makes it clear,
This is the longest rain I’ve known,
And I am never coming home.

Drinking for the Dead
03:53
|
|||
I have heard the sordid tales from the stories of the past
the people who have disappeared the ones that didn’t last
unspeakable pariahs and the martyrs and the few
that sacrificed their lives to help the others make it through
no matter what the god
we’ve come to have our say
we’re all in this together
and its just a drink away
I’m drinking for the dead
and all that represents
I drink for my desire
for all those things expired
I’m drinking for the dead
come with me sober friend
I am drinking to the dead, I’m drinking for their souls
I think there’s more to death than we will ever know
I’m drinking to the dead I drink my life away
and when I’m dead and gone you can drink for me some day
I’m seeing things that I had thought that I would never see
and the music’s getting started for the world beneath my feet
my troubled friends are over and we’re drinking to the past
with this company I keep we will raise another glass
no matter what the god
we’ve come to have our say
we’re all in this together
and its just a drink away
I’m drinking for the dead
and all that represents
I drink for my desire
for all those things expired
I’m drinking for the dead
come with me sober friend
I am drinking to the dead, I’m drinking for their souls
I think there’s more to death than we will ever know
I’m drinking to the dead I drink my life away
and when I’m dead and gone you can drink for me some day

America, you need a radical change.
You need somebody to blame.
For your own stupidity.
Don't you see, Don't you see?
You did to yourselves what you didn't want to do,
and now they're taking everything from you.
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
America, you're building fences of hate,
You are a people enslaved,
for your own stupidity.
Don't you see, don't you see?
They're doing what you didn't want to do,
and now they're taking everything for you.
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
The fire still burns, the fire still burns, the fire still burns, the fire still burns
The fire still burns, the fire still burns, the fire still burns, the fire still burns
America, you are no longer the dream.
You're not the land of the free.
you have the greatest disease,
Don't you see ,don't you see?
You did to yourselves what you didn't want to do,
And now they're taking everything from you.
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA
There's still a chance, to make a stand, to save this land AMERICA

Lay Down
05:19
|
|||
In fields of swastikas where Jessica lay
Battered and beaten and feeling betrayed
She’s smiling and dreaming and ending the pain
She’s high on the feeling of fading away
Lay Down, Lay Down, Lay Down
Lay down and Bleed
Lay Down, Lay Down, Lay Down
Lay down and Bleed
And the serpents and spiders that lay in the grass
Touch not and want not this beautiful lass
While the wind in the wheat field blows down on her form
And the voice of her master will keep her from harm
Lay Down, Lay Down, Lay Down
Lay down and Bleed
Lay Down, Lay Down, Lay Down
Lay down and Bleed
No tears roll downward from Jessica’s face
No meaning is found there she’s left not a trace
Resentment contentment will never be told
When Jessica sleeps her body grows cold
Lay Down, Lay Down, Lay Down
Lay down and Bleed
Lay Down, Lay Down, Lay Down
Lay down and Bleed
Lay Down, Lay Down, Lay Down
Lay down and Bleed
Lay Down, Lay Down, Lay Down
Lay down and Bleed
Touch not and want not and be not afraid
The time will approach when your bruises will fade
Touch not and want not and be not afraid
The time will approach when your bruises will fade
Touch not and want not and be not afraid
The time will approach when your bruises will fade
Touch not and want not and be not afraid
The time will approach when your bruises will fade
Touch not and want not and be not afraid
The time will approach when your bruises will fade
Lay down and lay down and lay down to bleed
Let the life you’ve been holding flow into the weeds
Lay down and lay down and lay down and know
That the world you are leaving was killing you so
Lay down and laydown and lay down to hear
That the earth is your shepherd you’ve nothing to fear
Lay down and lay down and lay down to die
For the world won’t forget you as you say goodbye
Touch not and want not and be not afraid
The time will approach when your bruises will fade
Touch not and want not and be not afraid
The time will approach when your bruises will fade
Touch not and want not and be not afraid
The time will approach when your bruises will fade

Red Moth Bleeding
05:52
|
|||
There’s a Black Star, shinning on fields of memory.
There’s a white dawn, coming to wash it away.
There’s a red moth, here in my hand that I’m holding,
Onto the knowledge, that I’m slipping away.
I hold this red moth bleeding and dying,
To you it means nothing, to you it means nothing,
I hold the whole world, and my shoulders grow heavy,
You cannot fathom, the weight of the meaning,
I hold a dead heart dried and depleted, I hold a dead heart dried and depleted,
I hold a red moth, this red moth is bleeding, In the palm of my hand I hold life I hold death.
I hold a red moth, this red moth is bleeding, In the palm of my hand I hold life I hold death.
I can see black pits deep in your eyes, they swallow shadows, they eat the light
I can see black pits deep in your eyes, they swallow shadows, they eat the light
This chalk white circle was drawn to be broken, This chalk white circle was drawn to be broken,
This chalk white circle was drawn to be broken, This chalk white circle was drawn to be broken,
I hold this red moth bleeding and dying,
To you it means nothing, to you it means nothing,
I hold the whole world, and my shoulders grow heavy,
You cannot fathom, the weight of the meaning,
I hold a dead heart dried and depleted, I hold a dead heart dried and depleted,
I hold a red moth, this red moth is bleeding, In the palm of my hand I hold life I hold death.
I hold a red moth, this red moth is bleeding, In the palm of my hand I hold life I hold death.
As it expires its murmur is deafening, as it expires its murmur is deafening,
As it expires its murmur is deafening, as it expires its murmur is deafening,
I hold this red moth bleeding and dying,
To you it means nothing, to you it means nothing,
I hold the whole world, and my shoulders grow heavy,
You cannot fathom, the weight of the meaning,
I hold a dead heart dried and depleted, I hold a dead heart dried and depleted,
I hold a red moth, this red moth is bleeding, In the palm of my hand I hold life I hold death.
I hold a red moth, this red moth is bleeding, In the palm of my hand I hold life I hold death.

This is Real
04:46
|

Stay awhile sit and smile
Come laugh at what I see
People shout and fuss about
Believing they are free
I’d love to comfort all your souls
and say this isn’t so
But freedom is a hardship man,
And slavery’s all you know
The people they will come and go
They will try to pull my strings
Their puppetry, exposes me
to the truth behind the seams
With one foot in the mountain
and the other in the grave
By Christ I’ll suffer for this world
but I’ll never be its slave
This architect that built your dreams
That made you whole now where is he
This dialect you have with God
Is it direct when will you learn
That the control you would project
Onto my soul will never work
Your magic’s dead you’re incomplete
And I will witness your defeat
That was nice – This is real
This Goddamned casket where I live is shrinking every day
People try to lift the lid to see my life and say
You Goddamned selfish bastard how is it that you survive
Well I take their shit and shovel it to keep myself alive
The people they will come and go
They will try to pull my strings
Their puppetry, exposes me
to the truth behind the seams
With one foot in the mountain
and the other in the grave
By Christ I’ll suffer for this world
but I’ll never be its slave
This architect that built your dreams
That made you whole now where is he
This dialect you have with God
Is it direct when will you learn
That the control you would project
Onto my soul will never work
Your magic’s dead you’re incomplete
And I will witness your defeat
That was nice – This is real
