Betrayal of the Masses

Evilution Devilution Revolution
screaming metal's on its way And there's hell to pay
I can hear the screams of hate Echoes of retribution I can see the country's fate
Legions of revolution We all have one voice Scream out for change For change
Betrayal Betrayed our trust Lies that shine in time turn to rust
Betrayal of the masses
I can see them standing there Writing the constitution All for one
and none for all Seems to be their solution

You will have the faith And you will have the power And you
all shall kneel down before me I am the new God Touch my
hand and I shall save your soul This is the church of blood
And the baptism by fire
In my dreams God speaks to me
And you all shall be damned If you don't believe This is
what he speaks How can you be so weak And he's
laughing all the while As he pulls your leash
Form your own opinion Don't you buy that shit Now the
preacher thinks His church is my t.v. set
69 miles to Jonestown Waco's on the way Sell your soul
to mind control Operation obey So let it be written So let
it be done So many religions There can only be one
Form your own opinion Under one good God Now the
preacher thinks I can't see through his facade

Damaged
05:33
|

|
Wounds that will not heal Cover the sears of the tortured soul
Like broken machinery Rusted and in the rain cannot be the same
I am damaged inside I am burning inside The hands of time keep
on turning And it's burning my eyes Love has no meaning to those who
have never loved Dreaming deceiving phantasmagoria
I am damaged I am damaged I am damaged Just another slave to the
system In this dying world
All that time reveals Stare at the scars till you're goin' blind Like broken
machinery Rusted and sitting there far beyond repair

The Suffering
00:55
|
|||
|
Awaken on the other side Where twilight descends
Wicked from the womb we rise From underneath the
skin Answering the calling To face our fate
at hand The forming of pure evil Created by man Betrayal of the masses
Leaves blood upon the bricks Damaged lost and suffering Into the
black we slip

Into the Black
07:36

This can't be real only imagination
Running wild in you I can see the
signs writings on the wall It's coming home This is my
world dripping with pain Bring it home for you Once
you have seen it You won't be the same Cause here
comes the pain
Agony and ecstasy Showing signs of lunacy Once
you're gone you can't come back Journey to
hell into the black Trapped inside your twisted
mind Pain of the killing kind Waiting for you
they're waiting for you Into the black
This is your tortured frustration Running
all through you You can't find your way
You've been led astray It's coming back These
are my sins They're all that I have Bring'em
home for you Nevermind my friend don't you
feel bad Cause your time is soon Eyes are
open wide But what do you see? Is it real?
Or is it fantasy? Illusion of your mind Apparition
of some kind Phantasmagoria Into
the black you won't be back Images are bending
Transcending Dripping illusions Soaking
your soul Drowning the light And takes all
control Burning your thoughts Igniting your fear
Distorting the sound Of all that you hear in your
mind Agony ecstasy screaming insanity Roaring inside your head Trapped in a place of pain cannot be the same Look where this path has led Screaming but no one hears Caged inside your fears Leaving this world behind
Into the darkened mist Does this really exist Or is it just your mind?
Waiting for you Waiting for you Waiting for you Into the black

Blood on the Bricks

Blood on the bricks What a sick
twisted world we are living' in Kill /
marry / fuck where do I begin I gotta hear the sounds and I gotta hear it loud To
drown other the world that tries to keep me down I'm gettin' higher
Power in the streets Power in every eye they meet Nothing but hypocrites
Before they take my music away Blood on the Blood on the bricks
Preacher don't like what I say I told you once there's hell to
pay Let me hear heaven and nature sing So far I don't hear
anything But I feel the fire

Awaken
06:21
|
|||
|
Awaken inside the crystal dream
Transcending across the velvet scream
I can sense a rebirth New world awaits Never ending
nightmare Is now wide awake Darkness consumes
the light Sick sense of pain I can see it coming Let
the madness reign Underneath the crimson sky
Burning Watching closely at the tides Turning
Underneath the crimson shy One day soon we shall
arise I can see forever So raise your voices high The
fire burns on and on The dream never dies Legions
carry on the fight The new world machine All guns
blazing at you Madness reigns supreme

Lost
03:18

You're lost again Try to keep your
head above the water Better take a deep
breath cause it ain't over yet Your lies harder to
swallow Better take a good look at the fisherman's hook
All this time you've been lost All this time you've been
lost You're lost again You're lost again You're lost again
You're lost again
Try to work your way out of the darkness Try to see the light
burning in the night Your eyes could see tomorrow Open them up
wide you don't even try Try to find your way out of the darkness
You stumbled then you fell In a darkened world you dwell Your life is in
front of you You just sit and stare and watch it vanish in thin air

Wicked from the Womb

Sister sweet sister can you wash
away my sins? Sister sweet sister
can you make me pure again? Sister sweet sister can you take away my pain?
Can you make me pure again? Violated no respect for human life Stupid and
senseless Random acts of violence Look into the eyes of a mother of a murdered
child Is nothing truly pure? Not only did her child die So did a part of her
Innocence lost Hear the cleansing water run Screaming you're not
dreaming Bad blood through and through Wicked from the womb
Persecuted just for the color of your skin Guilty of being
white Reverse racism The only time we're equal is when
we die Is nothing truly fair? The only things in life
we are guaranteed is death and taxes the powers
that be The visions faded it's the blind leading the
blind Freedom's never free Where's the heaven
that we seek Take a look around and tell me
what you see Is nothing sacred? You tell me
Open your eyes and read between the lies
The truth is still stuck in their teeth

When you build
a world Made out of lies The fortress of
shame Crumbles in time Turn my back
and you're cutting on me Face to face it's
a different story How ya doin' how have
you been I just laugh at your two faced grin
These eyes are open wide They've seen it all I
know how to play the game It's all the same It
don't take long to see through the slime
I... I can see Through your lies Underneath Lies and
deceit Betrayed and shame Underneath It seems you're all the same
No guts no goddamn glory You stand and shake man I got no worries Time after time you watch your bridges burn I
don't think you'll ever fucking learn When you base your life On
deceit and lies The dust you kick Will end up in your own eyes

...As Twilight Descends
03:07
|
|||
|
In your darkest
hour of need Bleeding innocence lies Searching for
serenity Where even death may come to die
Spread your wings and fly away Soaring high above
all your yesterdays
Angel's wings soak all I bleed It's raining red as
they fly Staining the world forever As bleeding
innocence lies Darkness divinity Endless infinity
Let our journey begin... As twilight descends

The Otherside
07:06

Welcome
to the other side Make yourself comfortable
Lay down and die
Welcome to life's Catch 22 The more you
run the more it comes undone What a tangled
web you weave my friend Buried bones can
come back to haunt you again
The other side of twilight The other side of
twilight Father Time is laughing precious years
you're wasting Fucking ignorant
I welcome you to the mind's eye view As twilight
descends then the trip begins What a twisted
game you play my friend When checkmate is
close you start all over again You will never be
the same Once you have seen the pain Falling from
the sky Angle's wings soak all I bleed As they wait for
death to die Such a lonely space in time

Something's calling to us from the otherside
Tempting us to reach out to the electric sky
Visions of hope and glory through mystic light
Is this the ending to our story
As we fade into..........The night
Face your fear face your fate
Heaven can wait until it's over
Hear the call take it all before it's too late
Now's the time to face your fate
Answer the calling and face your fate
Answer the calling and face your fate now
Darkness divinity endless infinity
Drift into oblivion another space in time
Lose yourself inside the madness
Darkness is divine
Twisting and turning time is burning
your soul
Twisting and turning time is taking its toll
Face your fate its coming for you
Face your fate its calling to you
Something's calling to us
From the otherside
