The Past Reborns The Storms [demo version] The sky throws up storms trying to avenge itself You feel a pain that burns your flesh Your reflection inside the mirror Shows a past soiled by the blood of innocents The human greed will be their own destruction The apes in their cages surrounded by thorns That are forcing us to live here I feel an urge to melt and go through cracks To vanish like a fossil that will be found Flying on the universe Brains of armed lives hidden in pits It's a fight of dwarves strengthening the giants They are sons of the same father, fruit of the same mother All of them cry together in despair But what's heard is only the buzz of flies Over the rotten flesh There's no more safe ground to be on Everybody around you reflects an image Distorted and wounded I can hear the cry of a million souls That have been already marked by their deaths While the laughs of satisfaction echo endlessly... Insanity - laceraring the last sanity Endlessly - still remains on minds Lunacy - masses smashed by a holy shit No regret - from the past comes the storms The sky throws up storms trying to avenge itself You feel a pain that burns your flesh Your reflection inside the mirror Shows a past soiled by the blood of innocents The human greed will be their own destruction The apes in their cages surrounded by thorns That are forcing us to live here 10. A Hora E A Vez Do Cabelo Nascer Venha ver as minhas cores Ah, t? na hora do cabelo nascer Hasteei o meu cabelo Ah, para que o sol fique sabendo das coisas O meu cabelo ? verde e amarelo Violeta e transparente A minha caspa ? de purpurina Minha barba azul anil [translation:] The Hour And The Time For Growing Hair (Mutantes) Come to see my colors Ah, it's the hour for growing hair I hoisted my hair Ah, so that the sun is knowing what's going on My hair is green and yellow Violet and transparent My dandruff is of purpurina* My navy blue beard [found by David A. :"I found the lyrics to the song 'A Hora e a Vez do Cabelo] [Nascer'.

Drug Me I don't want to think, give me balls, go with my friends. Can't come up with anything, my brain needs stimulation. Drug me, drug me, drug me, drug me. I'm so fucking tired, got it waiting for us, gotta stay. T.V. and girls, third world, make more to store. Drug me, drug me, drug me, look out. Drug me, natural vitamin C. Drug me, pharmaceutical speed. Drug me with your sleeping pills. Drug me with your crossword puzzles. Drug me with your magazines. Drug me with your fuck machines. All fake, fuck it away. Finally off of work, another potato-chip weekend. Go away, go away, go, leave me alone, can't see myself. Drug me, drug me, drug me. 12.

Escape To The Void (Live) The pest in the eyes of death follows us Through the dirty streets of blood It begins to eat inside us, decaying our bones How will we escape if the void covers our lungs? We are buried in the spewed trash for ourselves Blood, pain - nothing to say Why then - must we die? Escape to the void Escape to the void I look at my face on the other side of the mirror My face falls down in pieces full of worms I burst my rotten heart with my own hands I'm dying and I can't help myself Blood, pain - nothing to say Why then - must we die? What have I been running from? I'm not guilty You've shown me the worst way Cause you're my victim... the next one The pest in the eyes of death follows us Through the dirty streets of blood It begins to eat inside us, decaying our bones How will we escape if the void covers our lungs? We are buried in the spewed trash for ourselves Blood, pain - nothing to say Why then - must we die? Escape to the void Escape to the void 19.
