Dystopia

Verse 1:
Your perception fucks my head
Your belief is biased
Your mask will crack under
The fate to blunder
Thinking you're stronger now
Failing the right breakdown
Who is attracted to
The fakeness you pursue
Pre-Chorus 1:
What about me?
We want this badly
Chorus 1:
Ignominy - Is what I see in you
Tenacity - Yes, you can just break through
Authenticity - Is slaughtered, fucked and sold
Dystopia - Poison your soul with gold
Verse 2:
Caught in this strong quicksand
Of power we demand
Failing to understand
To turn the coin
The one side praises yourself
The other actor's wealth
I grab the branch of aid
You're down to suffocate
Pre-Chorus 2:
What about me?
I made it happen, too
Chorus 2:
Ignominy - Is what I see in you
Tenacity - Yes, you can just break through
Authenticity - Is slaughtered, fucked and sold
Dystopia - Poison your soul with gold
Chorus 3:
Ignominy - Is what I see in you
Tenacity - Yes, you can just break through
Authenticity - Is slaughtered, fucked and sold
Dystopia - Poison your soul with gold

Misled To Insanity
04:05
|
|||
Verse 1:
Born into the one-way
As a productive livestock
You're formed into the puppet
View other lives just with mock
Chorus 1:
You have been brought up to be brave
You think you’re free but are a slave
From innocence to ferocity
You are misled to insanity
Verse 2:
Inherit the ashes
Of fire set by hatred
Drown the selfish instincts
With blood of disbelievers
Chorus 2:
You have been brought up to be brave
You think you’re free but are a slave
From innocence to ferocity
You are misled to insanity

Tear The Storm
04:11
|
|||
Verse 1:
The arc of reaching your standards is gone for good
Surrounding walls grow from seeds I watered with blood
Tired of chasing worlds
Strapped to weights you stapled
It has never been my plan in the first place
Pre-Chorus 1:
Reaching for your hand
No crack to the wall
Chorus 1:
Sight distorts, sinking to the ground
Weeping of despair, yet me I found
I came to my senses without you
To be I don’t have to get the clue
Verse 2:
I climb out of this well
It’s cute how low I fell
Depart into this world
With rights that I assert
Pre-Chorus 2:
Reaching for your hand
But no crack to the wall
Chorus 2:
Sight distorts, sinking to the ground
Weeping of despair, yet me I found
I came to my senses without you
To be I don’t have to get the clue

To The Dedicated
05:22
|
|||
Verse 1:
How does it feel to have lost everything?
To be tricked by faith in what life would bring
Escaping to one’s mind and fantasies
Where family is what it’s meant to be
Chorus 1:
Tell me, how does it feel?
To be pushed onto your knees
Numbing what once has been love
A story that pain’s consisted of
Verse 2:
When have you stopped to be your architect?
Where your world could have been simply perfect
Only imagining what warmth might be
Filter what your teary eyes want to see
Chorus 2:
Tell me, how does it feel?
To be pushed onto your knees
Numbing what once has been love
A story that pain’s consisted of
Bridge:
In the winter of your life, out in the dark
The chill just makes one shiver, numbing what once has been love
Cut, scarred, wasted, when it’s cold enough
Please feet, carry him until summer comes
Verse 3:
How does it feel to know you’re still here?
How life is steering you to persevere
It lights the dark and heats the chill of doubt
And clears the air from misery’s fallout

The Arctic Pull
04:02
|
|||
Verse 1:
And here I am, on the ice that’s obtained by thoughts
And here I stand and all my love begins to rot
Chorus 1:
Let me find this haven
Let me throw my urn
Let me clarify that anger will return
My sheet of ice is breaking
My pulse is freezing cold
The arctic pull that grabs you seldom loses hold
Verse 2:
And there I sink, down to the ground of the desolated seas
And there I stall, crushed under the blue that elides my final call
Chorus 2:
Let me find this haven
Let me throw my urn
Let me clarify that anguish will return
My sheet of ice is breaking
My pulse is freezing cold
The arctic pull that grabs you seldom loses hold

The Anatomy Of Pain
02:36
|
|||
Verse 1:
An endless chain is piercing through the generations
To distort their vision and brand them sainted children
Raise them to be soldiers to fight with other preachers
And cloak all the beholders until this war has reached us
Verse 2:
I abort you (4x)
Verse 3:
If this madness was natually created
Do we need artificial selection?
Bridge:
Wipe this plague out
Let these brain-washed maggots reach their destiny
Take the war they brought upon us down with our sanity
Let me bring the hammer down for the victims you have asked for
Educate yourself until your creed is shaken to the core

When The Curtain Falls
06:34
|
|||
Verse 1:
Tonight the curse waves through the land
Darkness faint smoothness, crawling end
Tonight you all fall asleep
Your dreams will be deep, you just can’t see
Pre-Chorus 1:
Everything seems to be alright
but it’s just a lie
Nobody noticed, delivered to the approaching end
Chorus 1:
How can you shake those hands
That forge our misery?
How aren’t you frozen yet
When your cold paralyzed us?
Verse 2:
Tonight the skies will break apart
Watch the final act start, closing in
Tonight, when the curtain falls
Everlasting pain mauls, deep within
Pre-Chorus 2:
Everything seemed to be alright, it was just a lie
Corruption against us and we chose to blind our eyes
Chorus 2:
How can you shake those hands
That forge our misery?
How aren’t you frozen yet
When your cold paralyzed us?
Chorus 3:
How can you shake those hands
That forge our misery?
How aren’t you frozen yet
When your cold paralyzed us?
Horrorfying terror counts to one
All hope is gone

Crouch & Pray
05:01
|

Verse 1:
I’m tied to a cart
And drive into a wall
That’s made up of your disapproval
I’ll crush every part
Of my persona
To purge myself by fire and rise from the ashes
Pre-Chorus 1:
Alone I can enjoy calming
Visions of my mind soaring
Chorus 1:
I’m falling from this plateau
Through judgement you have passed
Into the realm of self doubt
My salvation dies at last
I want to close myself up
Comfort my soul with resistance
Hoping that my anguish
Will help to break my friends
Verse 2:
Will something take of
This fear of failure?
Its devastation cruel
Its lessons hidden
I can’t reflect
My mirror’s cracked
By confusion and forlornness
Pre-Chorus 2:
Alone I can enjoy calming
Visions of my mind soaring
Chorus 2:
I’m falling from this plateau
Through judgement you have passed
Into the realm of self doubt
My salvation dies at last
I want to close myself up
Comfort my soul with resistance
Hoping that my anguish
Will help to break my friends
I'm fleeing from my shelter
Out of judgement you have passed
Into self doubt
My salvation's gone so fast
Bridge:
Hoping that someday
My anguish will help me
To break my friends
And leave them with regret
Chorus 3:
I’m falling from this plateau
Through judgement you have passed
Into the realm of self doubt
My salvation dies at last
I want to close myself up
Comfort my soul with resistance
Hoping that my anguish
Will help to break my friends

All Faith Shaken
05:34
|
|||
Verse 1:
I’m waking up
In the neon-lit room these doctors trust
Enjoy this club
As my soul vaporizes to dust
I was alone
And sorrowful and brimful with doubt
If I could live
With chasms that life has brought about
Pre-Chorus 1:
My mind is exposed to limelight
Melts under reality
Chorus 1:
All my thoughts are thought
All my battles fought
Brawl over what’s abnormal
But what good have you brought?
This is a hollow shell
And I am trapped in this void
Fuck you, monsters
I’ll be sane once you’re destroyed
Verse 2:
You took my hope
Your so-called help has broken my joy
How can I cope?
I’m naive to fall for your decoy
I am alone
In hell’s kitchen where I am stuck
I am okay
But you’re sick, you lunatic fucks
Pre-Chorus 2:
My mind is exposed to limelight
And framed as ignominy
Chorus 2:
All my thoughts are thought
All my battles fought
Brawl over what’s abnormal
But what good have you brought?
This is a hollow shell
And I am trapped in this void
Fuck you, monsters
I’ll be sane once you’re destroyed
Speech:
It all comes down to three pages of my life
Crouching in the ragged shelter of memories and loneliness
Please, will someone grab my hand?
And either pull me back to life, make me again the sage
Or finish me to cleanse my soul from rage
Please, please let me bleed out all the hate
Please, please let them choke on what I felt
My flush is the vortex for madness
My suppression that boils to rage
Insanity differs from being sane, in that love mollifies in vain
I snap, I hurt, I fear
I doubt the salvage I hear
Beat me beyond the point of oblivion
And when I’m laid to waste through your hand
Do me just one favour, please tear out this psychopathic laughter out of my lungs
Chorus 3:
All my thoughts are thought
All my battles fought
Brawl over what’s abnormal
But what good have you brought?
This is a hollow shell
And I am trapped in this void
Fuck you, monsters
I’ll be sane once you’re destroyed
