Trivium : The Crusade
Lyrics
1. IGNITION
Raise the guns,
at every self-made suspicion.
Build the bombs,
corrupt policy's decision.
Thats the sound,
of Intergity breaking its back.
In a country founded,
as a thievery act.
Raise the guns,
at every self-made suspicion.
Build the bombs,
corrupt policy's decision.
Times are dark with our children,
spoon-fed ignorance.
Inheritance of an,
anxious trigger finger.
Raise the guns,
at every self-made suspicion.
Build the bombs,
corrupt policy's decision.
Our leaders preach!
If we disagree,
we're the traitors of society!
Homophobia, racism, sexism,
our systems breed supremacy.
Ignition, inception,
burning is a fuse to destruction.
Break the walls of ignorance,
to disarm the world for its last chance.
Ignition, inception,
burning is a fuse to destruction.
Break the walls of ignorance,
to disarm the world for its last chance.
Time again for war,
on an enemy that isn't real.
Greedy selfish warlords,
feed the agenda, Death's the meal.
Thats the sound!
Impending fever,
crawling up your spine.
In a country where nothing,
is truly made clear.
Raise the guns,
at every self-made suspicion.
Build the bombs,
corrupt policy's decision.
Our leaders preach!
If we disagree,
we're the traitors of society!
Homophobia, racism, sexism,
our systems breed supremacy.
Ignition, inception,
burning is a fuse to destruction.
Break the walls of ignorance,
to disarm the world for its last chance.
Ignition, inception,
burning is a fuse to destruction.
Break the walls of ignorance,
to disarm the world for its last chance.
2. DETONATION
That's the sound,
of humanity melting away.
Say goodbye it's the end of days!
Fire rains down,
on the American dream.
Watch all you love,
seethe and scream.
Each will dig,
their own graves.
And bury themselves,
in life's failures.
It's our bombs,
we've masterminded,
lighting the skies.
Hideous misfires,
many die!
Those who survive,
soon will suffocate,
by the poisons we create.
Each will dig,
their own graves.
And bury themselves,
in life's failures.
Detonation!
When civilization crumbles,
man will turn on one another,
killing true!
The darkest of times,
will then come to be.
Through our selfish,
killer instincts.
And now the ground,
we called our home,
is but a barren wasteland.
And now the ground we called our home,
is but a barren wasteland.
The only sound drowning your cries,
is the detonation.
It seems we're running out of time!
All good as dead, just stand in line.
It seems we're running out of time!
All good as dead, just stand in line.
And now the ground we called our home,
is but a barren wasteland.
The only sound drowning your cries,
is the detonation.
3. ENTRANCE OF THE CONFLAGRATION
A common woman lives by the bible.
Wedlocked, a prison of antiquation.
Brings life to the earth while losing her mind,
trying suicide, hallucinating Satan.
Forcing her own blood down,
beneath the waters to drown.
Lying dead with eyes wide open!
Spiraling downward, refusing all help,
Self-mutilation neglects the children.
Dagger licks her neck, desiring escape.
Succumbing Satan, robbed by the seventh deadly sin.
Forcing her own blood down,
beneath the waters to drown.
Lying dead with eyes wide open!
Believing Satan was inside,
ordering to abide,
to destroy her cursed children.
Entrance of the conflagration...
Conditions worsen, searching for answers,
in holy scriptures, systematic plan.
Water fills the tub all of her children!
Floating lifelessly...
Innocence chased down and drowned.
Forcing her own blood down,
beneath the waters to drown.
Lying dead with eyes wide open!
Believing Satan was inside,
ordering to abide,
to destroy her cursed children.
4. ANTHEM (WE ARE THE FIRE)
Just when they thought,
you were through.
You've burned their lies,
now you're strengthened it's true.
Turn your backs on your enemies!
And let those motherfuckers rot,
in their jealousy.
They can't stand that the worlds up,
for taking and we are adamant.
Hellbent, determined,
to dominate everything.
We are the fire,
resound the anthem.
The music connects,
unites us more.
Our masses strengthened,
an unstoppable horde.
We're all now a family!
Together let's show,
the world what we say.
They can't stand that the worlds up,
for taking and we are adamant.
Hellbent, determined,
to dominate everything.
Turn your backs on your enemies!
And let those motherfuckers rot,
in their jealousy.
We're all now a family!
Together let's show,
the world what we say.
We are the fire,
resound the anthem.
We are the fire,
resound the anthem.
We are the fire!
5. UNREPENTANT
A poor man with four daughters,
a wife and a son.
Daughter commits adultery,
or so he was told.
Bought a knife and machete,
after Friday's prayers.
Fear the young would follow old,
thought all must be killed.
For your honor you will slaughter,
every one of your daughters.
For your honor you will slaughter,
it's you who should be slaughtered.
Terror grips the steel with hunger,
thirsting to avenge it's soiled pride.
Ashamed mad man!
You take their lives away as they sleep,
the blade kisses at their throats.
Love bleeds without a chance to weep,
you take, you take their lives away.
You're the man unrepentant,
don't you realize?
You murdered your own children,
call that honorable cause?
For your honor you will slaughter,
every one of your daughters.
For your honor you will slaughter,
it's you who should be slaughtered.
Terror grips the steel with hunger,
thirsting to avenge it's soiled pride.
Ashamed mad man!
You take their lives away as they sleep,
the blade kisses at their throats.
Love bleeds without a chance to weep,
you take, you take their lives away.
For your honor you will slaughter,
every one of your daughters.
For your honor you will slaughter,
it's you who should be slaughtered.
Terror grips the steel with hunger,
thirsting to avenge it's soiled pride.
Ashamed mad man!
You take their lives away as they sleep,
the blade kisses at their throats.
Love bleeds without a chance to weep,
you take, you take their lives away.
6. AND SADNESS WILL SEAR
Shepherd is chased by the wolves,
wolves who live by intolerance and hate,
for what they couldn't understand.
Blinded and vicious are the beasts,
beating and ripping at a beautiful human,
who did nothing more than be himself.
Tied to the fence as they break you,
and sadness will sear!
Cold is the wind that will freeze you,
and sadness will sear!
Scarecrow is left crucified!
Left freezing, bleeding,
tied and wondering why.
The wolves just couldn't understand.
It's the preachers and the teachers,
government's close-minded creatures.
Try to teach us to hate,
that which is different.
Tied to the fence as they break you,
and sadness will sear!
Cold is the wind that will freeze you,
and sadness will sear!
It's 12:53 AM, October 12th,
when the scarecrow died.
A victim of society's cruelty!
It's 12:53 AM, October 12th,
when the shepherd died.
The candle's light will alight,
your departure.
Tied to the fence as they break you,
and sadness will sear!
Cold is the wind that will freeze you,
and sadness will sear!
7. BECOMING THE DRAGON
Swim in the river ascending,
free of fear and filled with purpose.
Nishikigoi fights through oceans of adversity,
against the current to obtain the highest goals.
Swim through oceans of suffering,
climb to the falls of dragon gates, become!
Transform from Koi into a beast, dragon!
A living symbol of courage,
no wave will shatter these scales.
Dreams of three eagle claws and paws of a tiger,
waterfall's up ahead and one thing left to do
Swim through oceans of suffering,
climb to the falls of dragon gates, become!
Transform from Koi into a beast, dragon!
You'll never stop the becoming,
this dragon will rise and be King.
All bear witness to a great form,
evolution is complete.
A breath that turns into
clouds producing rain of fire,
watch the world move
according to each desire.
Swim through oceans of suffering,
climb to the falls of dragon gates, become!
Transform from Koi into a beast, dragon!
8. TO THE RATS
You hide behind barricades,
built of facades,
you think you're safe.
But someday we all find you,
come to where you work,
and fucking tie you.
Every lie shoved back,
down your throat by our hands.
A skull fuck for every word!
Just try to breathe,
don't fuck with this.
Break every bone in your face,
if you mess with my life.
Mess with our life...
I'll mess with your blood!
Bury you in a coffin,
made of your deceptions.
Obsess as each second fades,
in denial of your mind made.
Still your jealousy precedes you,
you're really in love with all that I do.
Every lie shoved back,
down your throat by our hands.
A skull fuck for every word!
Just try to breathe,
don't fuck with this.
Break every bone in your face,
if you mess with my life.
Mess with our life...
I'll mess with your blood!
Bury you in a coffin,
made of your deceptions.
This is to the rats...
And your conscience still tears at you,
you secretly want to be just like me!
A skull fuck for every word!
Just try to breathe,
don't fuck with this.
Break every bone in your face,
if you mess with my life.
Mess with our life...
I'll mess with your blood!
Bury you in a coffin,
made of your deceptions.
Break every bone in your face,
if you mess with my life.
Mess with our life...
I'll mess with your blood!
Bury you in a coffin,
made of your deceptions.
9. THIS WORLD CAN'T TEAR US APART
I was so empty, self-loathing,
before you awoke me.
Lived in transgression, feasted sin,
destroying all I stood for.
A world of spreading disease,
legs up forinfidelity.
They force feed of their,
stiffened sickness.
The promised hiding their rings,
to suck down some of the things,
that cheat this world into Lovelessness.
All the pain in this world,
won't stop us now.
For we have each other!
All the hate in this world,
can't tear us apart.
This love is forever!
In arms we'll turn away from there ways,
we'll live like no other.
Together we're hope absolute,
the only thing that matters.
A world of spreading disease,
legs up forinfidelity.
They force feed of their,
stiffened sickness.
The promised hiding their rings,
to suck down some of the things,
that cheat this world into Lovelessness.
All the pain in this world,
won't stop us now.
For we have each other!
All the hate in this world,
can't tear us apart.
This love is forever!
10. TREAD THE FLOODS
Stress breaking my back,
pulse is stuttering.
Pressure mental attack,
my thoughts cluttering.
Beating this dead horse
is exhausting.
Heartbreaking to see,
my hands shaking.
I'm knee-deep in the dead,
still wading.
Still wading in this,
this well called life.
Nervousness halting all will,
forcing apathy.
Anxiety an aching chill,
hammering down me.
Beating this dead horse
is exhausting.
Heartbreaking to see,
my hands shaking.
I'm knee-deep in the dead,
still wading.
Still wading in this,
this well called life.
Tread the floods,
so you can hope to seize,
your own reality,
before it escapes thee.
Watch yourself,
drown in disarray.
It's time to break away,
or we'll die today.
Tread the floods,

Watch yourself,
drown in disarray.
It's time to break away,

I'm knee-deep in the dead,

Watch yourself,
drown in disarray.
It's time to break away,
or we'll die today.
11. CONTEMPT BREEDS CONTAMINATION
Mistaken identity,
you really got this one wrong.
Racially singled out,
he must have a gun.
And yet you get off,
with no time.
How can this be the answer?
No crime yet they shot away.
He now lies dead,
the blood is on your hands.
Hands which,
were supposed to protect.
People like the man,
you blew away.
This is injustice,
this is corruption.
The four protectors,
fired 41 shots.
Hitting him 19 times!
Searching the body,
there were no weapons found.
He lies with all,
who died in vain.
Murder must still be a crime,
when our inherent freedom,
is hatefully gunned down,
by who we entrust.
And you get off,
with no time.
How can this be the answer?
No crime yet they shot away.
He now lies dead,
the blood is on your hands.
Hands which,
were supposed to protect.
People like the man,
you blew away.
This is injustice,
this is corruption.
The four protectors,
fired 41 shots.
Hitting him 19 times!
Searching the body,
there were no weapons found.
He lies with all,
who died in vain.
Contempt breeds contamination...

12. THE RISING
And the earth begins to shake!
A cacophony of roaring,
anxiety growing.
Cheers to leaving,
this mortal life behind.
Sweat begins its downpour,
a riot we stand for.
The blackout,
foreshadows the chaos.
So raise your voices with me,
and sing this song of unity.
So raise your hands up with me,
and hold this moment eternally.
Like a rift opened in the sky!
Through fire, pulses and lightning,
while thunderous sounds ring!
Chanting hymns to leave,
Life's troubles behind.
This time shared together,
is just so much better,
than life could ever offer.
So raise your voices with me,
and sing this song of unity.
So raise your hands up with me,
and hold this moment eternally.
13. THE CRUSADE
(Instrumental)
14. BROKEN ONE
Defeat grips you
Life deflates you
Killed your hopes, too
You won't make it through
Pick up the pieces
There is a better way
Put yourself together
Try to make a change
This world's so twisted
You can still make a change
Protect and care for all around
Stop the spread of hate
You feel like the broken one
Over and over again
You taste blood, you're through, you're done
Only you can make it end
Can't let it stay
Kills more each day
Amputate pain
Tear it all away
Pick up the pieces
There is a better way
Put yourself together
Try to make a change
This world's so twisted
You can still make a change
Protect and care for all around
Stop the spread of hate
You feel like the broken one
Over and over again
You taste blood, you're through, you're done
Only you can make it end
(Over and over again)
Pick up the pieces
There is a better way
Put yourself together
Try to make a change
This world's so twisted
You can still make a change
Protect and care for all around
Stop the spread of hate
Feel like the broken one
Over and over again
You taste blood, you're through, you're done
Only you can make it end
You feel like the broken one
Over and over again
(Over and over again)
You taste blood, you're through, you're done
Only you can make it end
(Over and over again)
(Over and over again)
(Over and over again)
(Over and over again)
15. VENGEANCE
I'll drown you in your legacy
Pulling you under, the black waves you've created
In the moonlight, your fighting for silver luster
Perhaps you can call this your baptism
Did you tell them it would bring them closer to God?
So that's how you can call this your baptism?
I'll be the servant who drives purity through the heart
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
I'll be the torch to burn it all on down into the ground
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
Heaven will never be a sight for you
What goes on in your crazed mind, madman clairvoyant?
You were supposed to provide guidance, protection
But it was violation you bestowed
Did you tell them it would bring them closer to God?
So that's how you can call this your baptism?
I'll be the servant who drives purity through the heart
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
I'll be the torch to burn it all on down into the ground
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
Held down, forced fucked
Raped of innocence
Shattering the cradle in the name of God
I'll be the servant who drives purity through the heart
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
I'll be the torch to burn it all on down into the ground
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
Pound the nails through with teeth and skin
I'll leave you to die choking on your blood
Choking on your blood!
Raise the guns,
at every self-made suspicion.
Build the bombs,
corrupt policy's decision.
Thats the sound,
of Intergity breaking its back.
In a country founded,
as a thievery act.
Raise the guns,

we'll live like no other.
Together we're hope absolute,
the only thing that matters.
A world of spreading disease,
legs up forinfidelity.
They force feed of their,
stiffened sickness.
The promised hiding their rings,
to suck down some of the things,
that cheat this world into Lovelessness.
All the pain in this world,
won't stop us now.
For we have each other!
All the hate in this world,
can't tear us apart.
This love is forever!
10. TREAD THE FLOODS
Stress breaking my back,
pulse is stuttering.
Pressure mental attack,
my thoughts cluttering.
Beating this dead horse
is exhausting.
Heartbreaking to see,
my hands shaking.
I'm knee-deep in the dead,
still wading.
Still wading in this,
this well called life.
Nervousness halting all will,
forcing apathy.
Anxiety an aching chill,
hammering down me.
Beating this dead horse
is exhausting.
Heartbreaking to see,
my hands shaking.
I'm knee-deep in the dead,
still wading.
Still wading in this,
this well called life.
Tread the floods,
so you can hope to seize,
your own reality,
before it escapes thee.
Watch yourself,
drown in disarray.
It's time to break away,
or we'll die today.

11. CONTEMPT BREEDS CONTAMINATION
Mistaken identity,
you really got this one wrong.
Racially singled out,
he must have a gun.
And yet you get off,
with no time.
How can this be the answer?
No crime yet they shot away.
He now lies dead,
the blood is on your hands.
Hands which,
were supposed to protect.
People like the man,
you blew away.
This is injustice,
this is corruption.
The four protectors,
fired 41 shots.
Hitting him 19 times!
Searching the body,
there were no weapons found.
He lies with all,
who died in vain.
Murder must still be a crime,
when our inherent freedom,
is hatefully gunned down,
by who we entrust.
And you get off,
with no time.
How can this be the answer?
No crime yet they shot away.
He now lies dead,
the blood is on your hands.
Hands which,
were supposed to protect.
People like the man,
you blew away.
This is injustice,
this is corruption.
The four protectors,
fired 41 shots.
Hitting him 19 times!
Searching the body,
there were no weapons found.
He lies with all,
who died in vain.
Contempt breeds contamination...

12. THE RISING
And the earth begins to shake!
A cacophony of roaring,
anxiety growing.
Cheers to leaving,
this mortal life behind.
Sweat begins its downpour,
a riot we stand for.
The blackout,
foreshadows the chaos.
So raise your voices with me,
and sing this song of unity.
So raise your hands up with me,
and hold this moment eternally.
Like a rift opened in the sky!
Through fire, pulses and lightning,
while thunderous sounds ring!
Chanting hymns to leave,
Life's troubles behind.
This time shared together,
is just so much better,
than life could ever offer.
So raise your voices with me,
and sing this song of unity.
So raise your hands up with me,
and hold this moment eternally.
13. THE CRUSADE
(Instrumental)
14. BROKEN ONE
Defeat grips you
Life deflates you
Killed your hopes, too
You won't make it through
Pick up the pieces
There is a better way
Put yourself together
Try to make a change
This world's so twisted
You can still make a change
Protect and care for all around
Stop the spread of hate
You feel like the broken one
Over and over again
You taste blood, you're through, you're done
Only you can make it end
Can't let it stay
Kills more each day
Amputate pain
Tear it all away
Pick up the pieces
There is a better way
Put yourself together
Try to make a change
This world's so twisted
You can still make a change
Protect and care for all around
Stop the spread of hate
You feel like the broken one
Over and over again
You taste blood, you're through, you're done
Only you can make it end
(Over and over again)
Pick up the pieces
There is a better way
Put yourself together
Try to make a change
This world's so twisted
You can still make a change
Protect and care for all around
Stop the spread of hate
Feel like the broken one
Over and over again
You taste blood, you're through, you're done
Only you can make it end
You feel like the broken one
Over and over again
(Over and over again)
You taste blood, you're through, you're done
Only you can make it end
(Over and over again)
(Over and over again)
(Over and over again)
(Over and over again)
15. VENGEANCE
I'll drown you in your legacy
Pulling you under, the black waves you've created
In the moonlight, your fighting for silver luster
Perhaps you can call this your baptism
Did you tell them it would bring them closer to God?
So that's how you can call this your baptism?
I'll be the servant who drives purity through the heart
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
I'll be the torch to burn it all on down into the ground
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
Heaven will never be a sight for you
What goes on in your crazed mind, madman clairvoyant?
You were supposed to provide guidance, protection
But it was violation you bestowed
Did you tell them it would bring them closer to God?
So that's how you can call this your baptism?
I'll be the servant who drives purity through the heart
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
I'll be the torch to burn it all on down into the ground
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
Held down, forced fucked
Raped of innocence
Shattering the cradle in the name of God
I'll be the servant who drives purity through the heart
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
I'll be the torch to burn it all on down into the ground
And there's a filter you need so our sin is all we bring
Pound the nails through with teeth and skin
I'll leave you to die choking on your blood
Choking on your blood!
