BEEN ENFORCING REVENGE FOR MY WHOLE LIFE
A SYSTEM TRIED AND TRUE
SINCE NOW I'M THE ONE WHO'S BEING JUDGED
I EXPECT NOTHING LESS IN RETURN
CONSEQUENCES
PILE UP FROM THE START
THE FINAL RULING
GUILTY AS CHARGED
MEET MY SENTENCE
WITH OPEN ARMS
NOW MY TIME IS UP
I WEAR MY MISTAKES ON A SLEEVE
PIN THIS BADGE OF SHAME
SHAPED BY REGRETS AND INIQUITY
I'LL TAKE THE FUCKING BLAME
CONSEQUENCES
PILE UP FROM THE START
THE FINAL RULING
GUILTY AS CHARGED
MEET MY SENTENCE
WITH OPEN ARMS
NOW MY TIME IS UP
NO RELIEF
NO EXCUSE
TO THE GALLOWS
TIGHTEN THE NOOSE
NO CONTROL
OBSOLETE
SO REMOVE THE CHAIR
FROM UNDERNEATH MY FEET

Traitor

|
YOUR SUBTLE STARES WITH ABHORENCE
BRAND ME AS DEFECTED
FOR YOU I'M NOTHING BUT A HERETIC TRAITOR
A TUMOUR IN THIS WORLD-REJECTED
YOU SELL YOUR TRASH, RULES OF SCRIPTURE
IN PACKAGE OF TRADITION
YOU OFFER CREDIT FOR ETERNAL BLISS
I PISS ON YOUR SALVATION
STILL EMPTY SHELL
NO RETREAT
NO LIBERATION
IN THIS LIFE
OR ANOTHER
NO REDEMPTION

Burial
01:10
|

|
SET UP, SET UP FROM DAY ONE
GAVE IN RIGHT AT THE START
SPIT OUT, SPIT OUT I'VE HAD ENOUGH
ONLY ONE WAY OUT
HIDE IMPRISONMENT
BEHIND A FAKE GRIN
WEIGHT CONCEALMENT
CANCER WITHIN
LIFE OF GROVELING
KNEES BLOOD DRIED
FINAL DETACHMENT
BUT TIES STILL BIND
SET UP, SET UP FROM DAY ONE
GAVE IN RIGHT AT THE START
SPIT OUT, SPIT OUT I'VE HAD ENOUGH
NO WAY OUT
THERE'S MY NAME ON THE HEADSTONE
AND A HOLE IN THE GROUND
THERE'S A FALLACY INSIDE
THAT NEEDS TO BE DROWNED
CAMOUFLAGE MISTAKES
UNDER DIRT AND GRAVEL
LOT OF BONES TO BURY
SO BRING OUT THE SHOVEL
SET UP, SET UP FROM DAY ONE
NO WAY OUT

LECTURE ETIQUETTE
YOU KNOW IT ALL
KEEP UP WITH THE HERD
WHILE YOU SIT SO TALL
TRADED LOGIC
AND COMMON SENSE
FOR THE LATEST HYPE
ANOTHER TREND
HACK IT OFF
REMOVE THE EXCESS
IDOLIZE TRASH
YOU BEAT YOUR OWN DRUM
TWO-FACED MORALS
YOU WORSHIP SCUM
HACK IT OFF
REMOVE THE EXCESS
DOUBLE STANDARDS
NO FUCKING SPINE
YOU ELITIST ASSHOLE
TIME TO DRAW THE LINE

WASTED TIME
IN SO-CALLED LIFE
I'VE HAD IT WITH THE CIRCUS
I'M SICK OF ALL THE LIES
I'M DONE X3
DONE WITH CHARADE
AND THIS FUCKING LIFE
END IT ALL
I NEED TO SIDETRACK
I'M PUTTING DOWN THE FACADE
I'M NEVER COMING BACK
I'M DONE X3
DONE WITH CHARADE
AND THIS FUCKING LIFE

AN OPEN MIND, A FIGURE OF PROGRESS
YOUR PROFOUND METHOD SEEMS TO FIT
BEHIND THE NOTION, PRYING EYES
LIES A FACE OF CONIVING HYPOCRITE
IT'S OUT OF YOUR FRAME SO NOW DEAL WITH IT
YOUR FABRICATED GRIN HIDES POISONOUS MIND
YOUR TRANSPARENCY REEKS, YOU'VE GOT A LOT TO HIDE
YOU AIM TO PROSPER BUT NOW YOU'VE CROSSED THE LINE
WATCHING YOU CHOKE STILL KEEPS ME ALIVE
TIME'S UP YOU BIGOTTED PRICK
MANIPULATIVE MEANS TO AN END
I SEE RIGHT THROUGH YOU HOMOPHOBIC SCUM
NO TOLERANCE FOR THE INTOLERANT ONES
YOUR FABRICATED GRIN HIDES POISONOUS MIND
YOUR TRANSPARENCY REEKS, YOU'VE GOT A LOT TO HIDE
YOU AIM TO PROSPER BUT NOW YOU'VE CROSSED THE LINE
WATCHING YOU CHOKE STILL KEEPS ME ALIVE
PAYBACK!

Dead meat
02:09
|

|
STAND DOWN, STAND DOWN
YOU'RE CAUGHT UP IN A CIRCLE
IMPRISONED FROM THE START
THEY CHOOSE A PATH
AND YOU STAY IN LINE
THESE MAGGOTS WILL TEAR YOU APART
NO REMISSION
NO HELPING HAND IN SIGHT
SOCIAL CONSTRICTION
THE DECREE THAT YOU ABIDE
FRAMED INSIDE A BLUEPRINT
ALL HOPES DEAD AND DROWNED
ADDING UP TO ZERO
YOUR SOLACE LIES SIX FEET UNDER GROUND
DEAD MEAT!
YOU'RE A MISGUIDED SERVANT
AN OBEDIANT SON
A CREDULOUS PUPIL
UNDER THE GUN
SELF-MADE PRISON
WHAT'S DONE IS DONE
PERFECT FIT FOR THE RAKE
NAILED IN FROM DAY ONE
|

Force it down
01:19
|
|||
|
SUFFOCATED
BY YOUR EMPTY PHRASES
PROSPER
BY INDULDING THE MASSES
I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOUR BORING BAND
I COULDN'T CARE LESS FOR THE MESSAGE YOU SEND
I DON'T WANNA HEAR ABOUT YOUR COLOURED EPS
YOUR 'PAY TO PLAY' BULLSHIT OR YOUR FIXED GUARANTEES
FED UP
WITH VALUES YOU DEFEND
MINDLESS VICTIM
OF SYSTEM THAT REEKS
ANOTHER FUCKING TREND
FORCE IT DOWN – YOUR FUCKING THROAT
A FISTFUL OF TRUTH YOU DENY
FORCE IT DOWN – TO GET MY POINT ACROSS
REALITY CHECK, TIME TO DECIDE
DON'T YOU GET IT!

Life in shackles
01:19
|
|||
|
BORN AND RAISED
TO COMPLY
KEPT IN CHECK
MULTIPLY
LOCKED INSIDE
DEAF AND BLIND
A LONGER LEASH
PROVIDES A SMILE
YOUR GLITTERING PRISON KEEPS YOU SAFE INSIDE
LIFE SUPPORT STILL KEEPS YOU ALIVE
BRED TO FAIL
HEAD KEPT DOWN
FILED IN RANKS
WITH NO SOUND
HIGHER FUNCTION
YOU ACCOMODATE
GIVES YOU COMFORT
THAT YOU FABRICATE
NEW BUILD CAGES
BUT FAMILIAR CAPTORS
FINAL ENTRAPMENT
LIFE IN SHACKLES
|
||||
10. |
No truce
01:57
|
|||
|
BLINDED BY INCENTIVES
YOU'RE SHAPED INTO A SLAVE
THEY'LL TRY TO SELL YOU FREEDOM
A TICKET TO AN EARLY GRAVE
CONTROL,
THE'LL HAND YOU YOUR OWN ROPE
OPPOSE
RESIST AND CUT THE CORD
PROVIDE YOU WITH THE SUIT
AND PROMISES OF WEALTH
STRAPPED FACING THE SCREEN
IN YOUR CUBICLE OF DEATH
CONTROL,
THE'LL HAND YOU YOUR OWN ROPE
OPPOSE
RESIST AND CUT THE CORD
NO TRUCE
NO SURRENDER
NO PEACE
