Demonization
04:38
|
|||
Memories haunt me from a distant past…
Are they just made up beliefs or really living nightmares?
Visions of a constant absolute terror…ritualistic attacks and gruesome rituals
Did the innocent really give themselves willingly?
Or were they mind controlled and lured to their own deaths?
I’m unable to make sense of what I’ve done
But I’m the last person they see before they die
I have no choice but to take their lives or I will be the one to die!
To them this is the greatest gift by committing the ultimate sacrifice
Taking an innocent life; to strike fear and appease their deity
Demonization
What you don’t know is that they live among us
Well-disguised and lurking in the shadows
Secrecy is part of their power
Eliminate weakness and conquer the common people
The haunting chorus fills the air and I feel it's power
Surrounded by chanting dark figures in robes
Gruesome images as I now hold the key
The power controls me and then my memory fades away…
The haunting chours fills the air and I feel it's power
Surronded by dark figures in robes
Gruesome images and unholy imagery
The power controls me and then my memory fades away
No one believes me and I don’t expect you to understand
But what they did to me…
There will never be no healing help for me!
These people they took me to hell…and once you’ve been to hell…you’re never coming back.

God, Greed and Genocide
03:55
|
|||
Unchecked and unopposed
In Christ’s name they enslaved, raped, and dehumanized
Indiscriminately slaughtering by the tens of thousands
Imposing a racist tyranny and introducing an alien god
“Unbelievers deserve to be separated from the church and to be exterminated from the World by death”
The Indigenous were enslaved, but their short and brutalized lives had least known Jesus
“The Discovery Doctrine” a legal cover to pillage and destroy the indigenous
Forcing them to convert only to spare their lives or become slaves or killed.
Discover and destroy the non-Christians by law and divine intention
…In the Name of Christianity!
And there were those who came with good intent, but they brought the New World their Old World disease
Women and children captured as plunder. And those that were raped, were infected with venereal disease…leading to fertility and birth decline.
Captured and vanquished and labeled as “Enemies of Christ”
Invaded and dominated. Massacred and deportation
God, Greed, and Genocide
Land conflict and ethnic cleansing
God, Greed, and Genocide
It was their God given right
A “new world” for building a “new heaven”
In the name of Christianity…legally committing human atrocities

So they came to you just like a sign from the heavens
At that very moment when you felt no more reason to live
Giving you the feeling that you finally belong somewhere
A psychological manipulation cast you into oblivion
Using your tragedies, heartbreak, and loneliness
From your past life is the key to his mind control
Affection and acceptance earned through conformity
If you don’t follow them, then they can forever shun you!
And so before your eyes arose this righteous leader!
Imposing superiority of his own god and creating his own religious beliefs
Questioning him is like questioning god himself
Mentally unstable and free to exploit his followers to his black heart’s content
Causing paranoia that the devil is out to get you! Faithfully you’ll follow what he dictates
Without a doubt in his followers’ minds, he is anointed by god…even it means to abuse the flock!
Never answer allegations or criticism, but just attack the character of the opposition
Egomaniac, but yet so charismatic
Mastered the art of persuasion to manipulate your mind
Egomaniac, but so charismatic
Physical – psychological – intellectual
Flattering one’s ego, highlighting the difference between “us” and “them”
Taking you to flights of ecstasy, divine harmony, and spiritual experience
Driven by narcissism, but still feared and followed
Bringing you to a new level of awareness through trance and hypnosis
Nothing more than simple tricks and techniques
To make you believe that you’ve reached a higher level of bliss
A user, a liar, and a coward, destined for greatness in a world of evil
Beneath the allure lies danger into the darkest corners of human behavior
A true teacher of survival…the blueprint of every cult

The Smell of Rain
04:28
|
|||
Trapped in this labyrinth
Alone and drowning in sorrow
This pain that you let live inside of me, tears apart my tender flesh
My soul forever in agony
Like a cut that never heals and I’m bleeding forever
Wondering alone in your empty memories and fading away like a dying rose
As the rain keeps falling…falling and flooding my world
Your decision to end my memory, my life, and my existence in yours
Why remember what is supposed to be forgotten?
Why remember this memory with me that is lost forever…
As I walk in the shade that’s casted by your shadow
Wondering how our lives could have been
And what our world could have become
Unwept and unmourned
Nothing more than just a memory
In the loneliness of time is where I’ll be
Scarred with emptiness and screaming this silent love
I may be gone, but I never left your world
If you search deep in your thoughts, that’s where you’ll always find me
For my song…my story…will always be the same
For that moment to bring you comfort
Just like the smell of rain.

False Mask of Sanity
05:14
|
|||
This is your pleasure, the desire that you can’t control
For your satisfaction, to feed that demon living inside
Your display of power by destroying lives of the innocent
A genuine psychopath; compassionless and sadistic
Your sick and twisted mind, the quest for power that will never be satisfied
The true workings of an evil mind; reign with vengeance, vanity, and sadism
Exploit, bleed, and cast aside
Malevolent, dangerous, and unpredictable
Still no one can see behind your false mask of sanity
Shallow emotions and never held back by guilt or shame
Incapacity to love with ice water flowing through your veins
False Mask of Sanity
Building up your rage and spinning a web of deceit
Create a life of fear and destroy at all cost
Never to be satisfied is the demon that controls your life
Never to be satisfied is the demon that controls your life
Annihilate their existence and make them wish that they were never born
Slowly feeding them your poison and forever shadowing them
This is your predatory nature
Workings of an evil mind; vengeance, vanity, and sadism
Exploit, bleed, and cast aside

Heaven To Dust
04:01
|
|||
O’ world, consumed by the deepest void
Your storm came and washed all their flesh away
No one tending to their pain and no one caring about their shame
Damned, forsaken, and desolation
O’ world, desecrated and annihilated
Once full of beauty and now filled with death
With no salvation and full of empty promises
Their pathetic existence…they are the most evil of all creation
Killing life; for God, for power, and world dominance
Their madness consumed them, as humans killed humanity
O’ World, now they’re just specks of dust in this vast universe
Falling to their knees, reaching for the sky,
but their Heavens just drifted on by
And where were their kings?
The great dictators of the world?
Science? Wealth? God?
Arrogant, even to the end
Now there’s no sign of life left on the surface
All the angels have perished and now the sun has no virtue
Falling to their knees, reaching for the sky,
but their Heavens just drifted on by
O’ world, if genesis shall return
And the most evil of all creation has evolved again
O’ world, this Heaven to Dust
We shall witness their madness consume them

Breathing in this decaying world
On this sacred ruined earth I lay
As the sun salutes in rays of salvation
For our days have finally come to an end
Robbing the earth and infinite sky of the crimson light known forever
For I am now the servant of an endless void
Full of shame, despair, and anger
Hejel m oimed (A solitary wanderer)
Pi mo has kai oimed (Walking without saying anything)…
chum hekith (Forever)
For under the obsidian sky, I lie
A mirrored reflection of mankind’s sins.
Ignorance and no purification…Wehs t-hugio (Destroyed us all)!
Regression and no progression…Wehs t-hugio!
No enlightenment to all of our creation…Wehs t-hugio!
The misguided path of life and death…Wehs t-hugio!
Conflicting forces and warring powers…Wehs t-hugio!
Humans failed humanity…Wehs t-hugio!
Breathe deep in this decaying world
On this once sacred earth, I lay
The sun gives a final salute in rays of salvation
Our days have finally come to an end
Robbing the earth and the infinite skies of the crimson light now gone forever
For I am now the servant of an endless void
Pi mo has kai oimed…
chum hekith
