Lyrics

1. THE MACHINE

It is alive beyond the dark side
Passing through the light
Blast off catalyst
Paradigm shift of consciousness

Transcend - the end

We manifest what we think
We create all the love and the hate
Through the battles we go

We have died a million times before
Every struggle opens a door
Forget this mortal coil and rise up
The time has come to reboot the machine

Watch it thrive living the high life
Dreaming of paradise
Cast off mask off
Alien green crystalline

We have died a million times before
Every struggle opens a door
Forget this mortal coil and rise up
The time has come to reboot the machine

Do you feel alive
Do you feel alive
Do you feel alive
Do you feel alive

We have died a million times before
Every struggle opens a door
Forget this mortal coil and rise up
The time has come to reboot the machine


2. NO MERCY

Wide awake bleeding
On the inside doubt
The consequences feelings
Internal holocaust

Blast

Reach for the gun
And put it to their heads
The uncontrollable appetite
To kill the pain

Where is your god now
Where is your faith

Reach for the gun
And put it to their heads
Force them out
The voice is pulling me away

No more lies
No more goddamn Hollywood vampires
Suck it dry - suck it dry
No mercy for the heartless

Reach for the gun
And put it to their heads

It is a beautiful day to die
It is a beautiful day to die

Kill the pain - Kill the pain
Kill the pain - Kill the pain
Kill the pain rip their hearts out
Kill the pain - Kill the pain
Kill the pain - Kill the pain
Kill the pain rip their hearts out

No more lies
No more goddamn Hollywood vampires
Suck it dry - suck it dry
No mercy for the heartless

No more lies
No more goddamn Hollywood vampires
Suck it dry - suck it dry
No mercy for the heartless

Separate the decay
Just walk just walk away

The voice is pulling me away
The voice is pulling me away
The voice is pulling me away
The voice is pulling me away

No more lies
No more goddamn Hollywood vampires
Suck it dry - suck it dry
No mercy for the heartless

No more lies
No more goddamn Hollywood vampires
Suck it dry - suck it dry
No mercy for the heartless

No mercy for the heartless
No mercy for the heartless


3. ALL THAT'S LEFT IS BLOOD

Take a look to the sky
Emptiness surrounds us
Feel so meaningless
Murder anarchy a state of distress
So cynical and halfhearted
Becoming the shameless
No association
The signal disconnects

Who cares what has been said
The tide turned to red

All that is left is blood
All that is left is blood

Feel the cold steel on the back of your head
One click and it is over
Nobody to judge the godless
No guardian angels

Who cares what has been said
The tide turned to red

All that is left is blood
All that is left is blood
All that is left is blood
All that is left is blood

There is nothing in our way
The world is ours to take

All that is left is blood
All that is left is blood

Blood

One click and it's over
One click and it's over
One click and it's over
One click and it's over

All that is left is blood
All that is left is blood
All that is left is blood
All that is left is blood

There is nothing in our way
The world is ours to take

All that is left is blood
All that is left is blood

Blood


4. I DESPISE

Fake judgemental hypocrite
Self-righteous piece of shit
You think you know it all
Don't know a fucking thing about me do you

No - you're everything I despise
And nothing will save you now
Celebrate the demise
Of broken dreams and empty promises

You are the disease pathetic waste of life
Get down on your knees beg to stay alive

Stay alive

The truth is I can't fight the urge
To smash your fucking head in
To break your fucking face

You're everything I despise
And nothing will save you now
Celebrate the demise
Of broken dreams and empty promises

Crazed - harpening the blade
All that's left in me is rage
It would be worth it all
To put you in your fucking grave

You're everything I despise
And nothing will save you now
Celebrate the demise
Of broken dreams and empty promises

Promises
Of broken dreams and empty promises


5. PLASTIC WONDERLAND

Hello again my friend
It's time to start there is no end
Choking on diamond fantasy

Enter the madness
Beautiful sadness
You won't escape
You won't escape this stranglehold

And it feels so cold - so cold

And I can't stop won't stop all the highs and lows
Overwhelming paranoia to ease the blows
It's a holiday another holiday
It's just a holiday in this plastic wonderland

Unleashing the excess
Illuminate darkness
You will embrace
You will embrace this troubled soul

And it feels so cold - so cold

And I can't stop won't stop all the highs and lows
Overwhelming paranoia to ease the blows
It's a holiday another holiday
It's just a holiday in this plastic wonderland

Can you take me higher
Just to make me low

Just to break me down

And I can't stop won't stop all the highs and lows
Overwhelming paranoia to ease the blows
It's a holiday another holiday
It's just a holiday in this plastic wonderland


6. THE TRANSMIGRATION

(Instrumental)


7. CROWN OF PHANTOMS

Survival - survival of the fittest
Denial - denial of existence

Missing a piece inside of me I must awaken
Revival of everything I'd live and die for

Too late to go back now
The walls are crashing down
Walk with me through misery

Wear the crown - crown of phantoms
Wear the crown - crown of phantoms

Devour - devour the weak
Empower - empower the meek

Finding the beast inside of me
And I will grow stronger for everything I'd live and die for

Too late to go back now
The walls are crashing down
Walk with me through misery

Wear the crown - crown of phantoms
Wear the crown - crown of phantoms

Erase the ghosts from the past
Awake release the anger at last

Walk with me
Come walk with me through misery

Misery
Misery
Misery

Too late to go back now
The walls are crashing down
Walk with me through misery

Too late to go back now
The walls are crashing down
Walk with me through misery

We wear the crown
We wear the crown
Wear the crown - crown of phantoms
Wear the crown - crown of phantoms


8. SPINELESS

These words will cut you like a knife
And I'm killing this idea that you're perfect
Blinded by your own your own revolution
Misguided following insane delusions all illusions

Weak minded backstabber
And if I told you once I told you a thousand times
You're a weak minded backstabber
When will you realize you're spineless

Just another useless wasted life so spineless
How does it feel motherfucker to know I'm right

Running away you're just a coward
Feel my strength fall victim to the power
Get on your knees and pray for death
How does it taste your final breath such a disgrace

Weak minded backstabber
And if I told you once I told you a thousand times
You're a weak minded backstabber
When will you realize you're spineless

Just another useless wasted life so spineless
How does it feel motherfucker to know I'm right

Such a disgrace to the human race
A total fraud one side two-faced
You are the master of manipulation
Bow to me embrace the decimation

When will you realize you're spineless
Just another useless wasted life so spineless
How does it feel motherfucker to know I'm right

Spineless
And you know I'm right
Spineless


9. KINGS OF THE SHADOW WORLD

Horror inconceivable to believe
Torture penetrate the heart of humanity

To satisfy is to sacrifice
We rely on death to give meaning to life
Cult healing incomprehensible
Twenty first century massacre

We are what you fear the most
In this drugged up dystopia
Catatonic butchers rule the mind
We are what you fear the most
Orchestrating execution
Kings of the shadow world

Panic everlasting cause for alarm
Manic trepidation dropping the bomb
Cult healing incomprehensible
Twenty first century massacre

We are what you fear the most
In this drugged up dystopia
Catatonic butchers rule the mind
We are what you fear the most
Orchestrating execution
Kings of the shadow world

Behind the curtain evil darkness
Behind the shadows build inside us

We are what you fear the most
In this drugged up dystopia
Catatonic butchers rule the mind
We are what you fear the most
Orchestrating execution
Kings of the shadow world

Kings of the shadow world
We are the kings of the shadow world

Shadow world

We are the kings of the shadow world

Shadow world


10. WRAPPED IN VIOLENCE

Fuck what they say a dying age
A boiling rage will forever define us
And now your back's against the wall
The burning flame will forever divide us

Welcome to the separation say goodbye to your generation
New era of domination life is chaos wrapped in violence
Welcome to the celebration say goodbye to your generation
New era of domination life is chaos wrapped in violence

Fuck yesterday we're here to slay
A cloudy haze will forever define us
And now your back's against the wall
You're hollow fear will forever divide us

Welcome to the separation say goodbye to your generation
New era of domination life is chaos wrapped in violence
Welcome to the celebration say goodbye to your generation
New era of domination life is chaos wrapped in violence

Fuck what you think no fuck everything
A middle finger will forever define us
And now your back's against the wall

Welcome to the separation say goodbye to your generation
New era of domination life is chaos wrapped in violence
Welcome to the celebration say goodbye to your generation
New era of domination life is chaos wrapped in violence


11. LOVE SOAKED DEATH

Love soaked death two suns on one tongue
A kiss from across the universe
The black bottomless pit of hell

Of hell

Kaleidoscope altered imagery
I was so terrified to see
Is this all that I've become
A hopeless tragedy

Acceleration toward infinity
The walls are breathing new reality
Opened eye is this death

Love soaked death two suns on one tongue
A kiss from across the universe
Enter my brain sweet poison - sweet poison

Love soaked death

Kaleidoscope altered imagery
I was so terrified to see
Is this all that I've become
A hopeless tragedy
Kaleidoscope altered imagery
I was so terrified to

Is this all that I've become
Is this all that I've become

Kaleidoscope
Kaleidoscope


12. NEW APOCALYPSE

Pour gas on the fire
This mind-burning desire
Ecstasy and fallacy
A bottomless pit that's ever sinking

So much time is passing us by
Will weaken the mind prepare to die

And when the night draws in
the rain will cleanse our sins

This is our stomping ground
We are one wanting the galloway to run
It's a new Apocalypse
It's a new Apocalypse and this is the end

Who is this beast the monster trapped inside us
The power lies within our soul
It's hard tall to stand and face the demons
That you can't control

And when the night draws in
the rain will cleanse our sins

This is our stomping ground
We are one wanting the galloway to run
It's a new Apocalypse
It's a new Apocalypse and this is the end

You can't stop this
You can't fucking stop this

No way to run - this is the end
No way to run - this is the end

This is our stomping ground
We are one wanting the galloway to run
It's a new Apocalypse
It's a new Apocalypse and this is the end
