The Killing Time
04:55
|
|||
When the hunt was pure, it was to survive
And not for the sport of malicious slaughter
Once the hide of the buffalo
Kept the children warm at night to dream
But now the buffalo became extinct
So the young lay cold in the streets
And dream and kill each other to survive
And now we cry out injustice
In tradition of the shaman to the beat of the drum
For the season of hate will pass
Witness the morbidity of death's extremities
Forced to see what you refuse to see
The harsh reality: displayed by the thousands
When it's our time to die, there is no alternative
Crawl deep into the closet mind of every human
And see for yourself where each lunatic comes from
Who will feed the fire?
Now that the flames of their dreams no longer burn
Suffocated by desire as empty stomachs
That deserve forever churn, forever churn, forever churn
Corpses of a serial killer society
Betrayed by its own creation?
Lacerated vein graffiti on walls of isolation
Words of desperation
Helpless screams of an innocent woman victimized
Raped and beaten, then left to die
And we refuse to let the lunatic subside
As we fail to defy the killing time
Afraid to let the lunatic subside
As we fail to defy the killing time
Time is now to recreate the way
Who will feed the fire?
Now that the flames of their dreams no longer burn
Suffocated by desire as empty stomachs
That deserve forever churn, forever churn, forever churn
And we refuse to let the lunatic subside
As we fail to defy the killing time

Separate Minds
03:53
|
|||
We are one - you and I separate minds of humankind
One must flow from many
So that the many flow from the one - for I am one within
No one and you are one never to become one
Strange to see others undergoing what you've been
And being what you may become or fallen into what you fear
It's inevitable
Who is the one that you flow from to become one?
Who is the one that you flow from to become one?
I am one within no one cursed to see what you are
One within no one that deserves not to be
To us, the idealists of an improved tomorrow
You are only the corrupter of future generations
Progress down from your empty self
And awaken to the need of preservation
Who is the one that you flow from to become one?
To become one, to become one
In the life of a slave to greed surviving in society
Is dominating your bureaucracy
In our lives of poverty we must unite
To survive your sick society
The answers to your fears may remain in someone else's mind
And you will never know unless you cross their paths of time
Hiding underneath yourself as I subside
Above the lie separate minds you and I!

In Concrete Confined
04:30
|
|||
My world erodes as I internally churn
These serene dreams of utopia burn
Soil sealed beneath concrete, construction of isolation
Industrial sounds echo forever in halls of damnation
In concrete confined
I was born of synthetic flesh
Cursed from my first infected breath
As my luminous body remains divine
Cast into this realm where hate excretes
Now I walk disgusted down bloodstained streets
Through a maze in disbelief
Damned within these walls of pain
Sheltered from the acid rain
Forests lay desolate sealed beneath concrete
A once pure world mutilated
A once pure world mutilated
A once pure world mutilated
Fortresses obscuring wounded skies - tear down and rectify
In concrete confined
In concrete confined
In concrete confined
Confined, confined, confined...
Industrial sounds echo forever in halls of damnation
Isolation in halls of damnation
Release me, release me
Release me, release me
A once pure world mutilated
A once pure world mutilated
The natural process of evolution sealed deep beneath concrete

The Pain of Laughter
04:32
|
|||
It never promised it would help me see forever
And all along I knew and only now realized
Tomorrow I'll forget today
As now I fade from yesterday
Got to hold onto that killing face
From the pain of laughter
Feed into the self you dream you are
As you become what never was within your mind
As another feeds from what you were
As he or she is now confined
Within nothing, awaiting you, and all I can do is laugh
Can't stand the pain of laughter
Mock the look on Jesus' face
As the flock sleepwalks to the slaughter
Their cold expressions are the same
Relate to me, sit down and sedate with me
The joke's on you but you can't see the wall
Within my mind around me, laughing at the world I see
Laughing at the world that surrounds me
Can't stand the pain of laughter
Can't stand the pain of laughter
Teacher screams another lesson that I've already heard
Relate to me, take a hit, sit down and sedate with me
As the keeper scratches another moment
Into the wall within our minds around us
Around us
