God Kill

God Kill:
Old eyes envision new death
turn the other cheek
turn a blind eye to a hell of your own creation.
falling blindly over your hypocrisy
another death for your faith
mothers died, children screaming in pain.
haunted by visions of Christ
justified and right to die for your god?
Fuck the church, burn your god
tear stained blood filled
your gospel of love
is fake!
Demon eyes see, and filled with hate.
you reek of hypocrisy
you, Christ, are the root of all evil
evil
inflict christian death
your profane judgment, blinded by compassion
kill just to save their souls
god kill, kill god
fuck the church burn your god
tear stained blood filled
your gospel of love is fake.
to see and judge
to kill and hate
to go to heaven for your hell
your fate is death
judgment is on your righteous crusade
a day will come when you realize
old blood runs through our new veins
hell burns deep within us
god kill.....
fuck the church......
scorned and inspired by pain
inflicted by your 'love'
you seek your own just retribution
you judge and criticism
you cannot accept an open mind
old hate fills our new veins
this must end

Hated Truth

Hated truth
verse1:
conversations in hushed tones bold facts hidden in shadows
questions best left unasked
some truths left to rot
blindly accommodating half truths
outsider in your own country
identity stripped you are deceived
cultures clashing, violent outbursts
pre:
foreign policy
a bitter pill
oppressed
opinions denied
truth
racism is cried!
chorus:
hated truth
verse2:
obedient servants
sterilized,blinded
bound and gagged
stepping on human rights to appease an ancient hate
conspire to defraud a once proud nation.
verse1
pre.
chorus.

Preaching Death
Verse1:
as it began so shall it end
from nothing, the idea was born
fragile and weak
it grew stronger with time
consuming the world
now it's old and dying
the institution's reached it's end the worm has turned
(for the ones it once slayed and oppressed now drive through the killing blow.)
verse2:
weak ideology, it was all a lie
you've been betrayed
god doesn't exist
the devil is blameless
you are guilty for your own sins
killing in the name of god
(killing for your own selfish needs)
how pathetic
verse3:
My how the mighty have fallen
consumed by it's own kind
clawing to their faith
they accuse each other
for their fall from grace.
(death to the old birth to the new,your time has passed our way of life is pushing through)
Verse4:
your religion is old
your way of life is dead
as life changes and everything moves on
that which cannot adapt must surely die
your religion smells of death
your god is dead!

subtle forms of self destruction
Verse1:
6
6
6 times I beat his brow
6x calling my name
6x in obscurity and beyond
Verse 2:
6x I toss and turn
6x I speak to him
6th x i realize
I am He
Chorus:
As I sleep I lie awake
haunted by my fears
by my past
by my tears
Verse 3:
subtle forms of self destruction
in my mind a mystery
a place I am forever
damned
Verse1:
Verse4:
6x I sit and stare
6x calling my name
6th x a revelation
I am he
Chorus1:
Verse 5:
as I feel, I'm dead inside
trapped in my own mind
as madness pulls me down
darkness swallows the light
damnation calls my name
I stare emotionless
looking out only for myself
in this cold reality!

Anonymity

|

Anonymity
from anonymity we're spawned
through mediocrity it's borne
the will to rise
the urge to conquer
in animosity we will thrive
perseverance the only way
in mental disarray
destiny seized,clawed the way
from the depths of the abyss
pre:
maelstrom of hate
unscathed through the eye of the storm
forged by fate
anonymity
cho:
anonymity.
from the same primordial soup
yet your so weak
blood of the goat
pathetic sect your so meek
hiding in the shadows
lurking in obscurity
spineless creatures
hiding behind your dark lord
spirit of rebellion
icon of freedom
chained to organized oppression
pre:

Manifest destiny
Verse1:
ugly anger stains your face
pain burns through your mind
degenerate son
hate from a long forgotten sin
you soul's not yours it's mine to keep
cradling the hate that exists inside
nurturing the pain
pre1:
lacerated veins,
blood drips from the wall
congealing blood as the body grows cold
(empty eyes seek release
future denied,never grow old
memories haunting
empty within)
chorus:
pawn, end game is near bloody scriptures
letters carved in flesh
haunting visions
hidden deep underground manifest destiny.
verse2:
and the skies turn red awash in a sea of dark souls
changing from inside
as darkness consumes what's left
unimaginable tortures
severed synapses screaming with unfelt pain
pre2:
violated flesh
shamed corpses
what's done is your legacy
embrace the destiny
(a prophecy from another time)
Verse3:
betrayer betrayed
bringer of death marches on through halls of sorrow
refined psychological madness
verse4:
every murder a masterpiece
dark art running rampant with desire
barbwire amputee, savage dissection
defiled angel lies gutted
blood staining her milk white wings
verse5:
serpents succumb reptilian brain
enslaved in your own creation.
chorus:
verse1:
