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

Open Eyes Long Blinded

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

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

Status over Substance
01:41
|
|||
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
