1. Present Tense

Twisting the images
Watching them grow
Into what they are not
Forget we forgot as they fed on what's real

The path I fell onto
Of tears wades through
Await the demise
In sorry disguise from the things that I feel

Time does not exist
The days as thin as mist
Deep within my eyes
There is a heart that died long ago

What is it going to take to get through to you?
To open your fear-blinded eyes?
Because there was this fear that would tear at me
That by our own hands we would fall

These clouds can pass no light
Just silhouettes of tired life
Sorrow begging, why?, for answers miles and miles from the truth

Endurance and patience lost
From fighting this holocaust
Destroying within and eating its way from the core

Time does not exist
These days are meaningless
Deep within my eyes
There is a heart that died long ago

What is it going to take to get through to you?
To open your fear-blinded eyes?
Because there was this fear that would tear at me
That by our own hands we would fall

Forgive this heart
Long stagnant with its blood
For it is here, within my suffering
That these, the altars of the soul have creaked
Suffering Hour...
Suffering Hour...
Suffering Hour...
My darkest hour is now

What is it going to take to get through to you?
To open your fear-blinded eyes?
Because there was this fear that would tear at me
That by our own hands we would fall

2. Imprisoned

A hell is upon us now this day
Silence whispering unspoken rage
To lend a hand but not in force
To speak our minds in free discourse

Keep closed our eyes
Blind us from the fools unseen
Keep closed our hearts
Drain emotion to plant the seed
Keep closed our minds
Turn innocence to ignorance
Keep closed the mouths
Mute the verbal dissonance...Always

Use not, o'youth, the spoken word
Here to be seen and not to be heard
Thinking red-handed we are caught
Arrest the growth of human thought

Keep closed our eyes
Blind us from the fools unseen
Keep closed our hearts
Drain emotion to plant the seed
Keep closed our minds
Turn innocence to ignorance
Keep closed the mouths
Mute the verbal dissonance...Always

A hell is upon us now this day
Silence whispering unspoken rage
How can we grow with bars about?
Imprisoned in a cell of doubt

Keep closed our eyes
Blind us from the fools unseen
Keep closed our hearts
Drain emotion to plant the seed
Keep closed our minds
Turn innocence to ignorance
Keep closed the mouths
Mute the verbal dissonance...Always

How can we grow with bars about?
Imprisoned in a cell of doubt

Keep closed our eyes
Blind us from the fools unseen
Keep closed our hearts
Drain emotion to plant the seed
Keep closed our minds
Turn innocence to ignorance
Keep closed the mouths
Mute the verbal dissonance...Always

...Always
...Always

3. R.O.T. (Reign Of Terror)

Pools of blood of deepest red
Waves that soak the world in dead
Watch the bloodbath as it grows
Drowning all hope as it flows
Fear, gripping
We're, slipping

Watch as the angry masses persecute the weak
As helpless people die...
From death, the air will reek
...Reign of terror

The world's unrest can't be dismissed
A guillotine of hate exists
Ignore and it will have our heads
As anger bathes on our bloodshed
Fear, gripping
We're, slipping

Watch as the innocent
Fall prey to sickened minds
We turn our backs

But we can't leave the fear behind
...Reign of terror

Shadow grows nearer
Blackening fear descends
Darkness speaks clearer
Freedom's light will end

Pools of blood of deepest red
Waves that soak the world in dead
Watch the bloodbath as it grows
Drowning all hope as it flows

Watch as the angry masses persecute the weak
As helpless people die...
From death, the air will reek
...Reign of terror

4. Butcher's Block

Look around, it's all going black
Tons upon tons and it's breaking our backs
We're setting our course
Leading ourselves, one by one
To the butcher's block

We're sharpening the axe ourselves
Grinding it sharper to cut through the world
Touching the blade to the grinding stone
Hold ourselves down awaiting the cut

We're killing ourselves by running away
We've got to stop before it's too late
Six feet under is where we will be
Deeper and deeper
We're digging our own graves

We're sharpening the axe ourselves
Grinding it sharper to cut through the world
Touching the blade to the grinding stone
Hold ourselves down awaiting the cut

If we take the seeds of time
And throw them to the wind
To fall upon the infertile soil
The weeds of carelessness shall overtake the land
Until there is nothing left to destroy
And if we fail we can't go back
We can't go back
It's in our hands
The fate of man

Our heads on the block, is this the end?
The decision is ours, our necks will not mend
We're setting our course
Leading ourselves
To the butcher's block

5. A World To Gain

Searching to find an easy way out
People afraid to speak up, afraid to doubt
Afraid to open their eyes for fear they might find
What the problem's about...is us

As long as we keep running away
There is no hope, nothing will change
The problems at hand are the ones we must face
We've got nothing to lose
And a world to gain

Starving inside the hunger of one
Willing to help do, this, what must be done
We're wasting our time
Searching for ways to escape
There will be nowhere to run
From ourselves, now

As long as we keep running away
There is no hope, nothing will change
The problems at hand are the ones we must face
We've got nothing to lose
And a world to gain

Far too real, worse than a lie
You couldn't face, the truth inside

One heart lonely and small
To carry the weight of the world
If you and I could take it upon ourselves
To open our eyes to what it could be
We'd be free

As long as we keep running away
There is no hope, nothing will change
The problems at hand are the ones we must face
We've got nothing to lose
And a world to gain

A dangerous faith, it's silence that kills
It's eating at me, I'm haunted still

6. Frigid Bitch

Lying there on satin sheets
Her body cold her heart still beats
A frozen love is your defeat
Sitting on her icy throne
What she sees she makes her own
Her passion dead as still as stone
Your balls are in her frozen grip
you know you're on a sinking ship
Its passage is a one way trip

Trying hard you can't get through
You've done all that you can do
Hoping that she wants it too
Crawling to her on your knees
All you want to do is please
Fuck up once your mind she'll freeze
Back to her you'll come again
She'll decide just where and when
This pain and torture will it end

You scream and cry
Your dying plea
You try so hard
You can't break free
It's love you want
It makes you itch
You know she is
A frigid fucking bitch

She'll make you cry she'll make you bleed
Infect you with her demon seed
On your soul she does feed
Temptress harlot fucking whore
Knocks you down you're back for more
Leaves you lying on the floor
Leave her side you'd sooner die
You've tempted fate you scream and cry
Shattered dreams all empty lies

You're in her hold you'll do her will
By crushing you she gets her thrill
With twisted words she does kill
In the dark she's always there
Through your flesh she does tear
Smash your hopes she doesn't care
Pain she'll bring to your soul
She's got you now she has control
Your demise her wretched goal

7. Fighting Evil

I know it's true that you're feeling oppressed
I know that some hold you down
But fighting evil with still more evil
Is not the way it's done

We run in circles inside our minds
With no way out or in
If we're not careful they'll get our souls
We musn't let them win

We're fighting evil...

The hands of darkness, they reach out for you
It's not a game we play
Madmen telling, but you don't listen
To a single word they say

We run in circles inside our minds
With no way out or in
If we're not careful they'll get our souls
We musn't let them win

We're fighting evil...

They're blinding your eyes, telling you lies
To bring disorder to the world
But don't you give in
We've got to show them together we can be strong

We run in circles inside our minds
With no way out or in
If we're not careful they'll get our souls
We musn't let them win

We're fighting evil...

8. The Twisted Cross

At night the fires burn, cutting like a flaming knife
Looking down you see rotting carrions of life
Smell the putrid stench, sewage of society
Vultures circling, picking flesh off you and me

Giving genocide its birth
By waging war on the earth
The father-land, the master race
Annihilating all the rest
And serving the Twisted Cross
The Twisted Cross...
The Twisted Cross...

Extinguishing the damned
Letting them rot in the camps
Conquer by death, sadistic rule
Twisting the minds of those deceived
Who worship the Twisted Cross
The Twisted Cross...
The Twisted Cross...

The war machine has set its course
Slaughterhouse in full force
Thousands will fall to this savage lunatic
Before this madman can be stopped
Before we crush the Twisted Cross
The Twisted Cross...
The Twisted Cross...
The Twisted Cross...
The Twisted Cross...

9. Annihilation Complete

More than they need to put us all in chains
Genocidal misfits killing us in vain
Lusting for power, they play a losing game
Turn earth into hell
Stupidity is to blame

Die helplessly
In torment and agony
Falling in defeat
Crying as death we meet
Annihilation is complete

Absolute destruction killing you and me
Power hungry eyes, blind, they'll never see
Devastation takes us all, atomic holocaust
Fuck 'em all Fuck 'em up, everything is lost

We're sitting on death row waiting 'til it's done
Present and past are twisted into one
Pushing it too far
Now the time is late
Destiny will fall
It seems that we've sealed our own fate

Man playing God
Deciding what is right
Upon is a veil
The deadly black of night
The end has come
And taken it away
A fight without a victor
Sanity has gone astray

Absolute destruction killing you and me
Power hungry eyes, blind, they'll never see
Devastation takes us all, atomic holocaust
Fuck 'em all Fuck 'em up, everything is lost
