Lyrics

1. PERISHING MANKIND

The bullets are ripping through the crowd
The revolution is falling into parts
The starving are buried by the sand
Forgotten and never before seen

Have you seen newborn dying on their first day of live
Have you seen children starving in a faraway land
Have you seen young men crying on their first day of war
Have you seen the old one dying in a silent room alone
Have you seen widows crying waiting for their fallen men

They were only men who wanted to be
Only want to be just like we are
They were only men who wanted to be
In a perishing mankind

Have you seen atomic waste buried under mountains
Have you seen forests burning feeding humans greed
Have you seen dead fishes floating in a poisoned sea
Have you seen peoples killing fighting for their religion
Have you seen heroes dying in a quiet blaze of glory


2. SYSTEM MUTILATION

System mutilation
System uses mental mutilation

The system is the big body of society
You are the little cell that thinks it's mighty
That do you think you change a single thing
If you just sit and scream and shout and cry about your fucking life within

You don't have a clue
The things that you do
Are not here to help you get anywhere
You forget that you
Whatever you do
Just the fucking nitrogen in their atmosphere

You're an ugly rub you'll get no butterfly
You would have better blown your brain and don't ask why
You breed your fatness you're living a big lie
So you should better face the truth shut up and die

Cry
Side by side

They fuck your liberty you breed insanity


3. NOX

Search the night for victims
Smell the taste of blood
See the bodies sleeping
Hunger your first thought

Risen from the grave
Slept a hundred years
Get out of your cave
We'll never mind their tears

Never care about their souls
Feeding is their only cause
Your soul is longing for
Blood your only source of hope

Sucking you dry
Ends in the morning
Hide from the sunlight
Back into your coffin

Close your eyes again
Back into eternity
Until you rise again
Endless struggle into pain

Shadows walking in the street
Hiding in the darkness
Fading out from your sight
Danger in the night


4. NOONE

Here i'm standing at the stage
The crowd beneath
Is looking up to see
I've nothing left to loose

There they are here i stand
All on my own
They'll leave me alone
Once again like everyone

Frustration is a weak word
For the feelings i hide inside
Hopes were destroyed
All my life long and will be again

All the people i cared for
Had less than that for me
They set their expectations
Which were too great for me

No one cared at all about me
No one thought of me
No one saw it coming
I only know i've got to be free
No one thought of me
No one saw it coming

The crowd now screams at me
They're afraid I'll go further
But i don't want to let them down
So i take my step and fly

As the concrete gets closer
I feel light like never before
My sorrows have no meanings
As i crashed into the floor

As i opened my eyes no one was at my side
No one's a friend in the end
I knew that i was right
