Trapped 01:13
Stuck inside this lucid hell Is this living? Cause I can’t tell Wrapped in sorrow Those words you speak Just noise to me Attention You seek Look around Who can you trust Loyalty lies Spiteful lust Bound without ties Drowning in sin Deceptive eyes No conviction This hatred Burns through my veins Anger without bounds Can’t take, the pain Destroy me Take my worth Little left Drained since birth Words unspoken Promises broken Lies forced to surface Pain never worthless Disenchanted World that surrounds me Emotionless Life forced upon me

Mass ignorance plaguing the future The elderly poison there legacy Views passing Father to son Hatred aimed like a loaded gun Misinformation and ancient belief Coursing through the veins Of the majority Nations divided Passions en-flamed Mankind's final days Petty Narrow minded Attitude short sighted Your bigoted views Slowly infecting Those around you Your prejudice will be your downfall Left alone with nobody to call Judging those you’ve never known By the colour of there skin tone Lost all trace of humanity Destroyed our home Commit to this insanity Everyone fend for themselves Social importance Degradation of health Petty Narrow minded Attitude short sighted Your bigoted views Slowly infecting Those around you “Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost” Open eyes long blinded, Strike back against the inferno confines us Fight against the lies Betrayed Can’t trust our own eyes

Time Eternal 01:27
I don’t believe in true love I believe in pure hate Self inflicted Cataclysmic Self loathing Out of my mind Lost so much Those around me Feelings surround me Pull down and drown me No hope Pain is all I see Lost it all Brought to my knees Second by second Through my mind Times eternal Waste of life We all have our poisons In body and mind No one lasts forever Wounds reopen in time Nothing stays the same This worlds natural decay
5.
Constant exhaustion Ache from every bone The bitter realisation I walk alone Regardless of distance Time and empty space There's no hope, there's no love I walk alone Cause I Just can’t face the world today A man defeated Lay down and decay Fail to see beauty Live in dismay Not worthy of your love and care Die as I’ve lived Alone in despair Continual pain and misery Respect to those Get up and struggle every day No lust for life No Hope for us But still we rise Still we fight No ones journey Is the same You don’t know Others pain What they’ve been through Story half written Drifting through This meaningless existence Remember every cut, every fall to the dirt Who we are and how we cope
6.
Forgotten Status over substance Abandoned Moral reluctance What's the cost? For your approval How high the price? For morals and scruples Blinded then but now I know You're just So fucking fake So fickle, so fake Who's cool enough? That you won't slate So fickle, so fake Who are your friends today? Those loved, those you betray
