METAL LYRICS

album: "The Oncoming Storm" (2004)

1. The Great Dividers

It's true there were better ones
That led their people
It's true there were better ones
To lead their country
It's true there were better ones
Who cared for this world
It's true there were better ones
But who are we to change
Without the strength of all
The nations will crumble

Feed lies for war
bring the nations to it's knees
Risking worldy structure and integrity

The balance of our kind
Controlled by hatred, distorted truth and lies
United is the only way to stand
United is the only way to stand

Leaders of the free world
Lead into the land of the un-free

God sent politics
Hammered down with a fist too bold
Play the council of pawn
in the quest for total control

Free us of this Hate
Free us from this Hate

Take over the world
Does hate mean Freedom?
Divide our home
Does hate mean freedom?
Take over the world
Does hate mean freedom?

Does hate mean freedom?
Take over the world, divide our world.

2. Failure

What have we done?
Never thought that life would come to this
Eternal sense of self hatred
Blame not who, but ask us why we did

This is an open book of failure
Deceive ourselves all the we can, so we can be

Cycle of life disrupted
Halted by a force too close to home
Guilt runs through our blood
Close your eyes and let yourself forget

This guilt runs on and on
Consumed our senses gone

Torn; these wings of spirit
Godless relations
Scar this heart beyond all hope to heal
This being wont meet this world
I know I'll take this to my grave
All but saved

Die for us my child

This is an open book of failure
Deceive ourselves all that we can, so we can be

I walk each step in anger
Found fault in our design
Now i kneel down to pray
To pread for a better time
In hopes to awake from this

Die My Child

3. This Lying World

Be afraid of infection
Be scared of evil ways
Be scared for your protection
Best watch your every step
Instinctual appeal to fear
Collapse and paralyze
Far gone is good intention
Smokescreen to commercialize
Teller of tales spin us a line
Front page impersonation
Cities burn
The skies will fall
Civilization reduced to nothing
Disease will spread to all
We buy so we survive
Feel the acid rain corrode
I want to take a picture
Our lives would look disguised
Wash away this lying world
Terminate this iron fist
Strangled are we
By the bastards of facist culture
Strangled are we
By the hands of our own people
On the stage
It's "our lives"
On the stage grows a mountain
As we stumble on we forget
Steel toed this path of corruption
Conceal and steer our minds away

4. Black Hearts Now Reign

Take.
Rob this world of resource.
Burn the oil for fortune.
Stealing from our savior.
In quest of power. Sealed.
Our fate is catastrophic.
The coming days of failure.
Aborting evolution.
In quest of power.

Take all you want and these bloody skies will reign.
Take what's hers and these bloody skies will reign.
These bloody skies will reign.
These bloody skies will reign.

Oh mother, close your eyes.
These bloody skies will reign.
Dear savior,
brace your heart.
These bloody skies will reign.
Oh mother close your eyes.
These bloody skies will reign.
Dear savior, brace your heart.

You.
Take.
Rob this world of resource.
Burn the oil for fortune.
Stealing from our savior.
In quest of power.
Sealed.
Our fate is catastrophic.
The coming days of failure.
Aborting evolution.
In quest of power.

Blackened lives.
Sunless skies.
Our bare world weeps.
Black hearts now reign.

Blasphemous corruption.
Control progression.
Our bare world weeps.
Black hearts now reign.
Black hearts now reign.
In solitude a lonely voice is heard.
This future of despair is easy to avoid.
This future of despair is easy to avoid.
Lies strangle this world's hope.

In quest of power.
In quest of power.
In quest of power.
In quest of power.
In quest of power.
In quest of power.

5. Zombie Autopilot

It was last night
On the midnight train back home
I ran into this one
Yet unfamiliar tone
I know i should have known
It was last night...
I knew i should have known.
Chaos!
Our busy minds asleep
We drudge across the land
Is this the coming end
Of our monarchy.
Harmless!
We meet increased demands
Is this the life we all
Had in our dreams
Our eternal nightmare.
All of us are blind to others!
(All of us are blind to others)

[Background]

Hide behind our plans to nothing!

[Bridge]

[Solo]

Cage us!
We weep in self defeat
All humanity is lost
In this eternal
Nightmares.
All days are lost...
To conditioned zones
All days are lost...
To what we know.
Free us!
A piece of mind
Gone are dreamers
Who strive to know.
All days are lost...

[Background]

Free us!
A piece of mind.
Gone are dreamers
Who strive to know.
All of us are blind.

6. Bloodlust Of The Human Condition

We feed this hunger for horror
Cold is the human heart
Is the human mind
All born with sickness and impurity
Bloodlust of the human condition
Dark fears are wanted
Spread it so these eyes
Can capture doom thirst for destruction
Will feed this firestorm until we're gone
I can no longer close my eyes
This is our mortality
Taken away is our hope
Clip our wings
Crush our dreams
This is a part of us all
Clip our wings
Crush our dreams
Forever a part of us all
We feed on horror
Sold is the human soul
For crimes in nature
It's our bloodlust condition
Dark fears are wanted
Spread it so these eyes
Can capture doom
Thirst for destruction
Will feed this firestorm
Until we're gone
We feed on horror
We're drawn into these open wounds
The crowds all gather
To feed their bloodlust

7. Lie To Purify

Consumed by self loving pain
Self loathing bliss
It eats away
Burns you like a cancer
The feeling's inside
Mask your size
With your will
Now you fall
From heart and soul
Break
Years of frustration
All to plain to see
Ease into war
Invade with foul fingers
Lie to purify
Crushing what's not you
They say some are born
With a blackened heart
Fell to the curse of a bastard life
Cursed with a bastard life
Your lust to celebrate your name
Will cause your fall
Can't change
Years of frustration
All have yearned to see
The pedestal crumble
Ignored acts of agression
Falsify to slave
Avoiding all that's true
You stand up
Then you fall
Heartless souless appetite
You're crossing almost every line
Now it's time to wash away
You lost your way
You crossed the line
You crossed every line

8. Endless

Shadows of doubt consume you.
The light you barely see.
Growing wings of sorrow,
Have brought you to the winds of plague.
Increscent boundaries fade the way.
A barren future all to real.
And still I try to seek up and find the flame.
And still I try...inside.
It's endless.
A barren future all to real.
And still I try.
Endless fight.
Endless tragedy.
Endless lunacy.
Chalk up the past as a memory.
This battering sickness has surely won.
All I have I have wasted.
Will this erase me.
Time to clean my wounds.
Can I win this battle inside and out.
Can I win this battle inside-outside.
Endless fight.
Endless tragedy.
Endless lunacy.

9. Aries

cowardly warrior vents his rage. his lust for blood cannot be appeased. what fickle angels are we. our divided brothers we slay.
his lust will erase all

10. Predetermined Sky

In the heart of the land of creation
Grows a threat which cannot be healed
Efforts soar to restore generations
Grave results give this outbreak the nail
The growing devastation
Brings human extinction
This plague aims at our weakness
Predetermined sky
Cradles fall into pine for the mourning
Wailing cries blend endless each day
Poverty proves more than a lifestyle
Sumpathy can not sure disease
This plague aims at our weakness
Predetermined sky
Blind eye
Saw a man on the streets of lusaka
Selling coffins to a passer bye
How can we live in a world that lets millions die
How can we live with such a tragic side
How can we live in a world that let's the millions die
That let's the millions cry
That let's us agonize
Show us the way to terminate.
Immersed in all our dusts is the mother world

11. False Idols

I never cared to know your name
Roll out the red it's all the same
False idols scream for our love
Compete for stage devote for name
It's all pathetically the same
Convinced of starlight beauty 
A must watch all tune in 
A celebration heartache
Hail false heroes
Surrender to our envy
No boundaries left untouched
No passion left for memories
No passion for real memories
Here we stand
Lessened are the far
And few who sustain
Protect and nurture
Who stands before us
We lay our lives down for the star
Who stands before us
As we speak
We lay our lives down for the star
It's all pathetically the same
