1. AVE NIHIL (PT. 1)

(Instrumental)


2. MINDFIELD PARANOIA

Never, never
Shall I enter the chaos
In which they thrive
Never, never again

Shame - Licking my wounds
Regret - With a sober tongue
Into the chaos - I'm trapped
Movement equals death

Mindfield paranoia

Preparing for the past
I can always count on guilt
I am guarding my grave
Fighting battles lost

Backwards into the future
Headfirst into the past
Backwards into the future
Hell-bent to repeat


3. FILES TO SHIT

Attention disorder
Two-way monologues
Narcissistic rants
Smug bores

Symbiotic parasites
In joint degradation
Random friends in needy bliss
Soon replaced and forgotten

Dead embrace
Human waste
Bastard sons
Precious cunts

The self-humiliation never ends

Two-way exploitation
Stab my back and I'll stab yours
Exhibitionistic trip
Flies to shit

It never ends


4. GOATSHIN

Goat carcass rising
Putrid skin crawling
Stripped and resewn
Dressed in leather
Goatskin

Preach to the choir
Conform dissent
Lead the way to stagnate

Climb downwards
Steal the flame
Climb upwards
Inhale the fame

Tonight the rats will pay
Tonight the goats will play

Again the rats will play
Again the goats will pay

Fighting won battles
Profane parody
Top class conformity

Franchised rebel
Desperate for sin
Dressed in leather
Standard fit
One size fits all

Parasitic
Regulated demonic
Second-hand protests
Elitist copy-rat

Uniformed uniqueness
Goat carcass rising
Stripped and resewn
Dressed like the rest

Goatskin


5. SPOTLIGHT JUNKIE

You junkie
Chalk the outlines of your dignity
Up against the wall of shame
Moth to the flame
Pretenders to the throne

Spotlight junkie

You junkie
Addicted to the mass attraction
Willingly raped for higher ratings
Everyone must go
Pretenders to the throne

Sluts on parade

The show must go on

Don't you know you've been enslaved

7. AK-47

In the valley of riches
I find no value at all
The flickering flame of sanity
So alone, so filled with pride

My heart wears the crown

Through the valley of gold
I find no value at all
The desolate plains of riches
I leave the rat-race behind

I've been starving the dead
I've been selling my soul
For at a stab at my fate

Alive - come on !
Arise - come on !

Goat carcass rise
Goat carcass dance


8. MONUMENTAL

At the threshold of the dollhouse
On the verge of surrender
It is my shelter
But can I try my insanity ?

MonuMental disturbance

Shadows fall
From a brighter past
I raise my hand
Total eclipse

Scars of wisdom ?
Murder of Utopia
Shadows fall
I fall with them

Behold the unexisting stain
Beauty is a state of mind
Fragile to a closer view
Can I trust my insanity ?

Can you feel my pain ?


9. SOMETHING'S ROTTEN

Something's rotten in the state of mind
Embrace betrayal with hungry eyes
Take the moral low ground

Something's rotten

Rancid, ruptured mind

Bless slave downed in flies
Bless king crowned in lies
Whipped will satisfied

Something's rotten in the state of mind

Crawl in pathetic dreams

Something's rotten in the state of my mind


10. TO THE BRAVES

Clowns and kings driveling
Arrogant hope-eaters

Bible bashers - On the wall
Hardcore thrashers - Standing tall
The same old news
Bible bashers - On the wall
Hardcore thrashers - Standing tall
A twelve bar blues

You could have, you should have, you would have - Come on
You live like you live forever

Sloth and pride justified
Molded clay, old school trained

The bastard sons - Ruled obeyed
Talent undone - Grand cliché
A hive of drones
Alien race - New parade
Put in place - Old crusade
Kill their cults - Kill their cults

Justified in the court of Caligula
Metal is best served old

Hope-eaters, dogmatic preachers
Justified in the court of Caligula

New parade, old crusade
Rules obeyed, grand cliché

Old patrol takes control
Stranglehold on your soul

Fuel your own blaze - Lead the way
Take your own reins - To the graves
No more delay
Lead your own way - Fuel your blaze
To the new graves - Take the reigns
Dig up new hate


11. AVE NIHIL (PT. 2)

Ave Nihil

I expect the sun to die soon
Something's wrong
Is this the afterglow ?
