1. Plague Of Conscience
Accept the laws of destiny, mirage of a twisted fantasy
To realize what came before, was just the passing of a cause
So with rapture burning, indignation churning
Leaves an acerbic state of mind
All in your mind
Purge the hypocrites
That are your enemies
Masquerade of faith
Sucking dry on the bones of wisdom
Caustic words are your defense, to justify incompetence
How it must smart when you're alone and face the trust you've always known
Ingratiate yourself, save face and nothing else
When it's over vilify
Hands to the sky
Purge the hypocrites
That are your enemies
Masquerade of faith
Sucking dry on the bones of wisdom
So one and the same
Devoid of dignity
In plague of conscience now
Propagate their fantasy and fail
Exact the caustic tyranny, chalice of human misery
In weak defense of hopeless cause, but lethargy was all you brought
Malign through scorn abundance
You've always been the hunted
Now your sentence takes its toll
Into the void
Purge the hypocrites
That are your enemies
Masquerade of faith
Sucking dry on the bones of wisdom
So one and the same
Devoid of dignity
In plague of conscience now
Propagate their fantasy and fail
2. Six Feet Under The Gun
Your conceited doctrines burned, all your principles you spurned
Because in truth they were not their, another costume that you wear
The bitterness burns at you
But a lie is never the truth
A supercilious facade to hide the weakness that's at heart
In spite the reason that belies the wretched traits you die to hide
The servant was born to betray as the light is sure to face
All at once it crashes down
In this mire you will drown
To the sound of your own voice
Six feet under the gun
All the bridges that you burned
Opportunities you spurned
All come crashing down on you
Six feet under the gun
Such a tangled web we weave
In the practice of deceit
For too long we were ensnared
Six feet under the gun
As it unravels 'for your eyes
Only silence nullifies
Sanctimonious denial
Six feet under the gun
Your burning need to hold the floor, to perpetrate the caricature
And in sarcastic false riposte malfunction in senseless loss
The fantasy swallows you
When you've bitten off more than you can chew
All at once it crashes down
In this mire you will drown
To the sound of your own voice
Six feet under the gun
All the bridges that you burned
Opportunities you spurned
All come crashing down on you
Six feet under the gun
Such a tangled web we weave
In the practice of deceit
For too long we were ensnared
Six feet under the gun
As it unravels 'for your eyes
Only silence nullifies
Sanctimonious denial
Six feet under the gun
3. Carnival Of Souls
Indentured now as servants trapped beneath the weight
Bone crushing reality that snared the hand of fate
Saviours to soldiers all are perilous in mind
To starve a nation yet and pander to its pride
Concealed within
Apathy routine
And yet we preach
Can you believe that people never thought of asking?
What more do we forfeit when scared of the unmasking
Concealed within
Apathy routine
And yet we preach
Dead as the prophets warning
Drowned in the same mire
In carnival of souls
We march to expire
Broken the wreckage points to constant self renewal
So treat the symptoms once more, blind to the fall
Concealed within
Apathy routine
And yet we preach
Dead as the prophets warning
Drowned in the same mire
In carnival of souls
We march to expire
And through the degradation
Passed by a single cause
This through control is reason
Enslaved forevermore
4. In Thought Alone
Drift in darkness
Whispering of light
Afraid of reason
You hold to what's in sight
Holding the cross we bare
Striking us unaware
Losing faith all over
Selling the score
At first light they're coming
To reap the unrewarding
All will bow unquestioned
To shelter the harbinger
Soul lies, evermore
War in the sanctuary
Soul tires, marching on
Resistance in thought alone
In thought alone
In thought alone
Thinking aloud
Denouncing deceit
Cynical logic
Refutes the truth I speak
Holding the cross we bare
Striking us unaware
Losing faith all over
Selling the score
At first light they're coming
To reap the unrewarding
All will bow unquestioned
To shelter the harbinger
Soul lies, evermore
War in the sanctuary
Soul tires, marching on
Resistance in thought alone
In thought alone
In thought alone
5. All Seeing I
You speak more than you think
And think less than anyone believes
Inert futility
This numbing paradox that screams
Where is sympathy
You spat in the face of opportunity
Then with bold audacity
Pointed the finger right at me
The coward in you runs
So spineless afraid of all you see
Infant stupidity
Concealing shallowness to hide
Lost in apathy
Or left in the dust of mediocrity
Faced with cold reality
Another slave to cast away
Now wonder why
As you reach for the sky
On a wave of your own self importance you ride
Beg for forgiveness to those that you scorn
The all seeing I has you down to the core
To the core
You speak more than you think
And think less than many will perceive
Attest misanthropy
This numbing apathy that breeds
Where is sympathy
You spat in the face of opportunity
Then with bold audacity
Pointed the finger right at me
Pointed the finger right at me
Now wonder why
As you reach for the sky
On a wave of your own self importance you ride
Beg for forgiveness to those that you scorn
The all seeing I has you down to the core
To the core
6. Beyond A Shadow Of A Doubt
In the void between conscious thought
Where susceptible your mind is bought
And through the web of conscience
The perpetrators slip
In freedom from the known
You'll see the truth
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
And as the light creates the dark you fear
These perceptions have to be adhered
The timeless sense of logic
That breaks wicked cause
It seems has been forgotten
Inertia trade
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
And as the light creates the dark you fear
These perceptions have to be adhered
And in the vacuous pursuit of self
Where ego burns the truth in stealth
And through the web of conscience
The perpetrators slip
In freedom from the known
You'll see the truth
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
And as the light creates the dark you fear
These perceptions have to be adhered
7. Architects Of Fear
At the zenith of ambition unobstructed
Lays a curse upon mankind
De-populate through massive agenda
In accordance with the guide
Architecture of fear intertwines
Reason the enemy
Imprison the mind
Instilled in the young
To eradicate
Trivializing
Life by mandate
And to the ones that wish you gone
Without a flickers of remorse
In their elitist paradise
In judgment they will sacrifice
And as a monument to sadist machinations
Incremental paradigm
These ten commandments of wickedness unrivaled
Pave the way for our demise
Architecture of fear intertwines
Reason the enemy
Imprison the mind
Instilled in the young
To eradicate
Trivializing
Life by mandate
8. The Accuser
Affliction seething, from the recesses of life
Born out of solitude and cast into the light
Shadows burning scars in the cross
Another penance, another loss
Surrounding vacuum forms
Forcing all to conform
Eternal emptiness, the death of shallow life
A looking at the curse a changing in reverse
Shadows burning scars in the cross
Another penance, another loss
Surrounding vacuum forms
Forcing all to conform
In the purge of heavens law
Un-saintly dirge contorts
Souls scream in agony
And die in heresy
Signs of dismay
Paid fortune, all the same
Storm bringing darkness wakes the souls of enmity
The sorrow pacifies all the those that should not be
Shadows burning scars in the cross
Another penance, another loss
Surrounding vacuum forms
Forcing all to conform
In the purge of heavens law
Un-saintly dirge contorts
Souls scream in agony
And die in heresy
9. Shadowbound
Trade the lives of the powerless for the sport of mortal men
Blackened wisdom hails their cries for uniformed repent
Greed is the drug, the addiction is power
Afflicting the throng for the profit of empire
Enact the rites of hypocrisy for the scourge of relevance
Set in motion worlds apart all the herds of mindless men
Like cattle the herd are sent to their slaughter
The failure of freedom to counter the order
Without reason torn apart
As the faceless play their part
Another face to sell the score
Another mask to hide the cause
Face the shadowbound
Working underground
Decide without a sound
How our lives unravel
Trade the lives of the ignorant a collateral in blood
Falsify this paradigm to render all the brain dead
Soulless inaction the root of the cause
The fallout of judgment that sense the fall
There's only worth if you believe
The only value's what you see
Yet things get lost behind a price
Of superficial edifice
Face the shadowbound
Working underground
Decide without a sound
How our lives unravel
10. The Mask Of Anarchy
Waging wars on liberty, under a veil of secrecy
In procession it arrived one by one and side by side
To stamp out the sense of will, dead earth upon dead earth we till
Until in union we praise, thou art god and king and grace
On a white horse it arrived
Expressionless like one deprived
He is anarchy no less
And on his brow the shadow rests
Trampling over English land
Blood of the commoner on hand
And in the blood swept deluge claim
The right to govern in its name
What is slavery you could tell? To taste freedom and taste well
Yet when its very name has grown a mere echo of its own
And forced upon this forgery, this life blood of society
A measure of what you believe, no more value than you see
It is to be a slave in soul and to hold no strong control
Over your own wills but be all that others make you see
And so accept the consequence behind the walls of our defense
Afraid to see beyond the mask in the final blood stained task
In the hour of the dark, a cornered hunter bares his mark
Cast into the abyss, screaming whirlwinds cry sadness
I cannot see, I cannot feel, only anger rising
Like a cancer spreading now, lonely life subsiding
I am frozen emotion gone in the pandemonium
All is lost all is spent, lost inside and hiding
Rise like lions after slumber
In un vanquish able number
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you
You are many they are few
You are many they are few
