Lividity 04:56
Now we see it's come to this Undertakers prevalence in the perversion of the human essence We've been conditioned to be heartless, empty and callous Loving to gnaw at the throats of those that we claim to protect Perfectly planned by our captors Applied eugenics becomes a constant knee to your face Riding headstrong into oblivion! Overcome by feral genes and frigid reptilian brains Enemies to us With undying faith in the new human god Thoughtless collective drives itself to extinction Reek of death and plastic rot perfumes the air Those aware are witness to Radiated people with disintegrating lives Emaciated men and women with the faces of ghosts They stare into a barren distance with their deadened eyes Seeking messiah and accepting slavery as rational compromise Unless something is done soon our minds and spines will deteriorate And the gift of life will be rapidly withering; succumbed to atrophy A sick, twisted plot consumes your accursed future kin! Sever the spirit from physical binding Trapped in the grasp of a pentagram Semantic webs spell our names in reality's cyclical grid We transcend this meaningless suffering Part ways with the world of the damned But docile actions occur as lividity is preached By a crippled race dying on its knees Pain reigns in these final days and we still comply Wake up! Please, wake up! WAKE UP! PLEASE, WAKE UP!!!! I must sound the call to end this! I must sound the call to wake the dead!

Vampirarchy 06:12
All of this insidious greed to which they abide Wicked, divided, the species of man Who serves no purpose other than a submissive underclass that eats itself alive We don't deal in individuals, we deal in entire societies And we suck them dry of all that gives them life Surveilling with countless eyes We have poisoned your minds Left you weak; demoralized You blindly step into our traps and we laugh as we toy with your lives Out in the open domination wearing masks Hiding subliminal messages with cryptic warnings that In the coming days there will be a bloodletting ritual With voluntary participation of the people of the earth Who will smile as they die in sacrifice to a false god See them coming now Marching single file Coming forth, the children of men gather into his fold Accepting his glory into their hearts Strike, O, lavish serpent! Bend your grasp upon them Invoke your presence, claim your place above all! Domination of the masses! Endless bloodshed and serfdom chains for those who are left Gullible idiots, ugly and diseased Agenda accomplished And when they find out It will already be too late Outsource of nature Leading to a two dimensional fate We’ve built a well established throne So glorious Our tentacles reach unimaginable lengths Filling the unused wrinkles in your brain Providing endless distractions Stamp out any attempt To escape from this Centuries in the workings And all of you have done nothing You must want to know the taste of dirt Waging eternal war for a corrupted kingdom Who will swallow all within its reach You will all be living through it In these endless years of tribulation So breed for the bleeding

Cortège 05:52
Look now how they all dance To the tune of the morning star A beacon of deceit On the horizon of a changing world Hearts and minds overindulged by a destructive sense of pride As countless die Out of sight, out of mind Young man, you must not realize You put your life on line to feed an old man’s greed They live Thrive A pernicious form of idiocy Brings us to our knees And takes our dignity Killing the innocent in our names The crusader’s enterprise massacres with love as a pretense Seemingly without end Man will heedlessly kill for any ideal Other than to ‘live and let live’ And look how the world is on fire now Insisted that it’s rank and trophy that make a man Whose casket is canonized as a savior You obey a jealous God who will brook no rivals Whose health is war Aggressive Ideological Domination The AID gifted to your neighbors “Light ‘em up!” Bringing on their ending In violent disintegration To dust from whence they came Return to the earth as bullets rain Disaster worship Losing ourselves in an onslaught That may never end Look now how murder is justified Someday when you’re disillusioned by your own deeds You’ll live in misery You will hear your victims screaming for mercy in your sleep Forever echoing voices Regret will replace your sense of honor And guilt will shackle your every limb As you descend into a personal hell You’ll soon be haunted by dreams of your grandchildren Who will suffer the consequence of your actions

Tribulation 07:34
A voracious and conceited evil entity Presents its magnum opus performance piece Of planned obsolescence The blueprints run in the colors of Every nations flag as a facade to call itself everything its not Hearts and homes Shrink into something torn, pathetic, and sad At revealing of idols the hourglass cracks The countdown complete as the elite bring The unification of control Through cull and coup A liars kingdom claim nature itself a state of terror Feral in their eyes Insisting on saving us from ourselves Only at their command does the world live or die How does it feel to be forced to beg at the ruling sadists feet? A wicked ghost machine that controls then disowns you Keeping you running endlessly in its maze Intensifying stress Coldly, objectively viewed Chasing sensation is a cheap trick Biting at shadows on walls Hope flies as a banner of an unobtainable goal Only a concept of those born without it Generation of fear Takes what it's given and reaps all it sews A government of storms Infesting the sky to poison the light It’s all happening Hypnotized masses looking down as death looms above What dreams will we come to chase When wires replace whats left of our veins As the sky fills with clouds in shapes of snakes Forming a cage to keep us contained And unlearn escape The soil sweetened with the flesh of weakened indigenous The heartless few walk high beside death forever Glutton consumption of decaying loin of a ruined earth A grand introduction at the sinking of dragons bay Twisted horns of the undertaker glow Over a series of chess boards All men are pawns in this game Even those labeled as kings An illusive authority visible only as shadow The silent knowing Awaiting a strangers revolution to pardon them from slaughter Executioner on standby laughing Awaiting the end with no end in sight The present is actively darkening A permanent overcast with no rain or wind A sustained supremacy reigns Time stops and we all fall down
