Mindless fools are certain to their graves
Bow in line for precious Kool Aid
I CAN’T LEAVE, YOU CAN’T STAY
LOST SANITY, NO SAVING GRACE
Craven lies are all you ever trade
The deadly poison we all must abate
Trapped in your embrace
Pulled beneath the waves
Drowning in your arms
Fuck you all the same
So, you think you know this road?
Well, I’ve seen it all before
Answers, no doubt, predictable
No surprise, you stupid fucks can’t help us now
I’M TERRIFIED, SCARED FOR YOU
IF THE END IS HOME, COULD WE BE SO WRONG?
Trapped in your embrace
Pulled beneath the waves
Drowning in your arms
Fuck. You...
All, what fills your empty brains?
Fear, thanks to your selfish aims
How long ‘til the consequence is killing me?
That’s right, we need to trust your moral clarity

Peace On Earth

I turned away
Blacken the skies
You are the one I love
Under her spell
Under her spell
You made me more
Than I should’ve been
Your cherished love won’t fade
Night turns to day
Night turns to day
Peace on earth good will towards men
Give it away never save it ‘til the end
Take the hand of that beautiful girl
Take her by the hand and show her ‘round this world
LOST IN YOUR EMBRACE
LOST IN YOUR EMBRACE
Blessed the meek shall inherit the earth
Love your friends while they’re on this dirt
Take the hand of that beautiful guy
Open his eyes to the Southern Sky
LOST IN YOUR EMBRACE
LOST IN YOUR EMBRACE

Unending long fall
Down through the ground
She turned around
Slowly snuffed it out
In my body
For nobody
LIFE IS WHAT WE MAKE OF IT
AND CHOICE IS BY SELECTION
OPPORTUNITIES TO CHOOSE
UNFORTUNATE DECEPTION
IS IT REALLY WORTH YOUR TIME?
IT’S A MATTER OF PERCEPTION
ALL THAT’S LEFT IS EMPTINESS
AND DEALING WITH REJECTION
Severed, Futile, Broken Life
It’s too late
A faded smile
The exit tears ripping me
You never knew why
I hate you
The damage I’ve done, it lingers like flies
Close the lid down, be sure that this dies
I hear the dirt, it’s piling up high
Muffling sounds of our last goodbye

It's Rotten
04:25

Can you smell it?
The air tastes of blight
The cold wind froze my bones
A broken porch light
Among the vermin I roam
‘Neath the veils of gloom and hate
Rotten corpses litter my home
WE’RE CHOKING ON THE AIR
A taste so foul I regurgitate
WE ARE THE DEADLY RAIN
TAKE YOUR PILLS ALONE
THE HAZE WON’T WISH IT AWAY
A POISONED BLISS IS YOUR HOME
Surely this place cannot be saved
From the putrid children of Earth
Ever more diseases and plagues
THE WRETCHED ARE A GOD
The only hope is total rebirth
WILL WE BELIEVE IT NOW?
WISH WE COULD SLEEP IT AWAY
PRETENDING LIFE IS OKAY
A POISONED, STINKING, DEAD HOME

War is coming soon
It’s in the sky
Inevitable
You can’t escape from it now
The helicopters
They’re swarming overhead
War is coming soon
It’s in the sky
You can’t escape from it now
The drones see you
Maybe you should send them away?
Should we blacken out those lights?
Can you hear the drums of...
War is on your land
They’re burning your crops
They’re breaking your fence
Better hide the children down in the cellar
Better lock that door
Better grab your daughters
War is on your land
Destroying your fields
You won’t escape from it now
The fire grows close
Well, I guess you should’ve sent ‘em away
You should’ve blackened out the lights
Can you smell the decay of war?
Alight the Right’s selfish me, burn the paranoid
Greedy corrupted politicians fucking all your wasted lives
Merciless our sneak attack razes everything around
Fire away! Kill ‘em off!
Fire away on, all of them
Break your chains, steal away and serve them never more
Fight the Right, the Left, the Middle point them all towards the sun
Let the idiots sink and drag the cowards underground
Fire away! Kill ‘em off!
Fire away on, kill ’em all!
