"Greed" lyrics:
All through time, life leads you on, you get no closer to the grave
You've had no pain, you've had no loss
God does not care for you today
Life puts a gun in your hand, he'll kill you to please
Go stick that shit in your arm, you're just a disease
There you are now...you've gone too fast
Now there's no time, all hope is lost
You've got no faith in life today
You cry and moan, without a cross
A martyred life you always craved
Life puts a gun in your hand, he'll kill you to please
Go stick that shit in your arm, you're just a disease
There you are now... you've gone too fast
Down, down, down, the greed it runs through your veins
Down, down, down, the greed it rots out your brain
The greed it's all in your mind, the greed it drives you insane…

"My Disease" Lyrics:
" Christ forgive me all this anger
all I craved is but a shoulder
Peace won’t find this twisted slumber
life just takes, consumes and smothers
You come to cut me, iron in my veins
You want to hurt me, it’s too late
All I need is just the air to breathe
all I want is what you’ll never be
All I cherish is not what I see
it brings me down…brings me down
It’s my disease…
Dreams of wealth no chains to bind me
pain and suffering crucify me
Lies will always break the circle
truth betrays the serpent’s tail
You come to cut me, you make me sick
You want to hurt me, it’s too late
All I need is just the air to breathe
all I need is what you’ll never be
All I cherish is not what I see
it brings me down…brings me down
It’s my disease…
All life’s fantasies come from my disease
all I need is just the air to breathe
ll I need is what you’ll never be
all I cherish is not what I see
It brings me down…brings me down…
It’s my disease. "

"Blind" Lyrics;
You, live your life like a puppet on a string
You, think that you’re not blind
You, trust the words of a malignancy sublime
You, believe to the death while they burn out your eyes
Hey, don't put a price on my soul, not sold
My soul, not sold, my soul
You, live your life never daring to deceive
You, let dogma rule your life
You, trust these lies to give you guidance in these times
You, must start to believe in the freedom of man
Hey, don't put a price on my soul, not sold
My soul, not sold, my soul
Hey man, when you gonna chain your mother, when you gonna fight your father, when you gonna slay your brother, we need to get saved yea
Hey, don't put a price on my soul, not sold
My soul, not sold, my soul

"Lead the Way" Lyrics:
Some people run, just to save their life
Their memories fade in a bid to sooth their own minds
They feel no fear, but they, will taste regret
They do not know, pain can lead to success
Lead the way, just lead the way
Don't be a slave, be the one to write your fate
Lead the way, don't be a slave
Just lead the way…be the one to write your fate
Some take a bow, but it's all a pose
They seek the limelight like an heir to a throne
They'll only tread, where the rich have trod
The poor man knows, sometimes the gamble pays off
Lead the way, just lead the way
Don't be a slave, be the one to write your fate
Lead the way, don't be a slave
Just lead the way…be the one to write your fate
Hey you won't take a chance on life
Well I just want to say, you'll always break inside
Hey you won't take a chance on me
Well I just want to say, you're too blind to see

The End

"The End" Lyrics:
Down this road I roll, from the battle torn
I gave my heart to you and now I feel the cold
As it cracks my soul, all my words were true, now what am I to do?
For all the times you cried, for all we said we tried
Give me nothing, I’m broken, falling
For all the times you cared, the times I said my prayers
Give me nothing, then I’m heading to the end…
Through the storm I’d run, the pain it leaves me numb
I’d give my all for you
And now the skies unfold, fear is all I know
All my words were true, what’s a man like me to do?
For all the times you cried, for all we said we tried
Give me nothing, I’m broken, falling
For all the times you cared, the times I said my prayers
Give me nothing, then I’m heading to the end…
And now I feel as though I’m free, I’m just waiting, girl, I hope you understand
No, no, I’m just praying for the end, just praying for more, praying for more
Fighting for nothing but love and the right to be free
I’m a man at the edge, looking down, I’m a man at the edge, looking down, I’m a man at the end, falling…
Can’t save me
What’s a man like me to, what’s a man like me to say?

"Weight" Lyrics:
Love it blacked out the sun, consumed my soul and made me numb
Pain it fuels all my rage, ignites these days
Not mine to waste…or yours to take
You took all that once was mine,
You’ll twist words just to fuck my mind, but you left nothing
Weight; wait till there’s no more
Wait till I’m blind, speak to malign
Broken I’m on the floor
You spit all your lies my way, but you left nothing
Weight; wait till there’s no more
Wait till I’m blind, speak to malign
Broken I’m on the floor
Don’t make me wait…I’m coming for you
You left nothing, but you gave me something…

"Unclean" Lyrics;
Taking time to make time, but your fetish is my pain
These tears they burn with your poison, my soul is anchored by your pain
I pray in time the skies will crack, the darkness will subside
You remain unclean, you’re tainted you ripped the heart right off my sleeve
I don’t like your lies in my face
Unclean you are your shit I cannot replace
Cannot replace…
Speaking minds just to break minds, there’s no glamour to this pain
One day you’ll sit in your sickness, wallow in your depravity
I pray in time the skies will crack, the darkness will subside
You remain unclean, you’re tainted; you’re not the seventh seal to me
I don’t like your lies in my face
Unclean you are your shit I cannot replace
I don’t like your plague in my face
Come holy waters cleanse my sins leave no trace
I can’t replace…
Can’t you see the pain your lies create?
Can’t you see I’m trapped alone, await my fate
Don’t you feel, you never thought, love could break?
You would…make me hurt

"Hayt" Lyrics;
Praise the worship of broken idols
Plastic lives clear to see
All their dreams will drown in the bottle
Chained to madness it’s clear to see clear to see, clear to see
All through time petty games you hide
Your fantasies lead to hate
In the end makeup hides pretence
Your reverence leads to hate
Kneel before your god delusion
Idol words clear to see
Ageless lusting lost in Anger
Pestilence so clear to see, clear to see, clear to see
All through time petty games you hide
Your fantasies lead to hate
In the end, makeup hides pretence
Your reverence leads to hate
Drift into the eyes of a man you do not know
Looking for adventure, how far will you go?
You want to take me higher, higher than the sun
I don't want to be your soldier, but I'll carry a gun
All through time petty games you hide
Your fantasies lead to hate
In the end makeup hides pretence
Your reverence leads to hate
All through time
In the end just hate

"Inversions" Lyrics;
You shut your eyes find your black dog sitting
Its shadow will not pass …
You have to close your mind and just walk the path
You need to find your own direction, life only rests within your hands
So don't be scared to follow through, see where the story ends
You won't find the answers, they're too deep inscribed
Deep within the maze, that is your mind
It's like a crossroads in your life, so tell me on which route you do belong
You can't block the fear and all the strife and no one knows...
Where we're going wrong
Your life becomes an amalgamation, of different thoughts pulling hard,
They'll cause you conflict plant a minefield in your heart…
You dare not tread where you truly desire, the choice is slipping through your hands,
You want to run, hide your head, see this nightmare end
You won't find the answers, they're too deep inscribed,
Deep within the maze, that twists your mind
It's like a crossroads in your life, so tell me on which route you do belong
You can't block the fear and all the strife and no one knows...
If you're going wrong, no one knows, if you are wrong, no one knows if we're going
...or where we run...

"The Price of Dying" Lyrics;
Read the papers, you’ll find whatever you think you need
Words deceive us, as all life’s grime descends on me
Desecration, of what a human’s supposed to be
desolation, is all my eyes can see
We bleed for war, should we be fighting?
We bleed for war
Precious symbols, control and chain us without a care
Their deceptions, leave us empty will starve our air
Here’s a question, what future do you want to see?
Misconceptions, twisting realities
We bleed for war, should we be fighting?
We smash these bones, our sinews grinding
We’ll never know…the price of dying…
We bleed for war
