1. Trauma Of War
Children watch their mothers die
Raping a city in the name of freedom
Children growing - their hate inside
A world they lost in the name of reason
I never came back from that trench
I can't be alone I won't be alone
A schizophrenic cycle of paranoia
Trauma of war!
I saw the worst in the human nature
My hands are stained with blood of death
Attack all ghosts - I'm like a soldier
Wasted minds that are all alike
I never came back from that trench
I can't be alone I won't be alone
A schizophrenic cycle of paranoia
Trauma of war!
Freedom comes with a hail of bullets
My sun is getting dark
My urge to kill awakes
My world is no more
My urge to kill awakes
Children watch their mothers die
Raping a city in the name of freedom
Children growing - their hate inside
A world they lost in the name of reason
I never came back from that trench
I can't be alone I won't be alone
A schizophrenic cycle of paranoia
Trauma of war!
2. The Vatican
A bloody revolution in the name and love of Christ
Sadistic pedophile, abusers of lies and lust
The power of the church over men's intellect
A story of sacred swords - the darkest age of mankind
Reign of dark skies, walls of death and silence!
Alexander VI - Boniface VIII - Pius IX
John XXIII - Damasus I - Pius XII
Reign of dark skies, walls of death and silence!
A disgrace to the chair of Peter, in the ways of violent deaths
Banquets and evil orgies in the heart the holy see
Indulgence from the bank for the works of religion
Conspiracies and corruption are leading us to the end
Reign of dark skies, walls of death and silence!
Alexander VI - Boniface VIII - Pius IX
John XXIII - Damasus I - Pius XII
Crusaders, the knights of sacrifice
Purveyors the death of change
Crusaders, the knights of sacrifice
Dictators of change
Reign of dark skies, walls of death and silence!
3. Impending Doom
Crawling through ages in search of dignity
Stained with the backlash of filth we call humanity
Brother, what have we done?!
Draining the life force of anything within our grasp
Selfless needs and dirty deeds
We leave nothing to chance at all
Mother, what have we done?!
Father, what have we done?!
Creating a wasteland we sink slowly awaiting death
Born to suffer, live to kill, our motto of all mankind
Brother, what have we done?!
4. Manipulation Of Tragedy
Strength!
The power behind the words
They block the instinct
My head
They have an interest
Learn, obey, but not to think!
Worship!
Bow down!
Why?
There's something that keeps us in check
It contradicts a big part of life
It's self-inflicted
Manipulated my God, the box
Worship!
Bow down!
5. Tsunami
The wrath rages on with no discrimination of wealth
Seeking to create destruction
Whoever stands in the way
A force to deal with it
One and all will fall beneath
There's no good reason for ourselves
Death is calling out
All out!
Ripping apart!
All out!
All is dark!
Fate is lashing out
Forgiving all your sins
Released unto all
Let the healing begin
God save me now
A fury is breaking free
A force to be dealt with
One and all will fall
Many run to look for shelter and realize it can't exist
It has only one mission
To wipe all that's in the way
It's a tsunami!
All out!
Ripping apart!
All out!
All is dark!
6. The Bliss Of Ignorants
Lost our way! Fell from grace!
Fell from grace! Lost our way!
Ahh, there's no good reason
Ahh, to live in darkness
We slip we fall - stand by it all
Sick of the filth - our world decay
Lost our way! We fell from grace!
Fell from grace! We lost our way!
Stronger, fearless - changing it over
No more silence - push our way
Ahh, you didn't make us
Ahh, in the end we'll save us
The bliss is gone - you awake to see
Our choice to be - brought back belief
We live our time - must wake and find
The facts all sides - our freedom now!
Our freedom now!
7. Grief
Leave me with my grief
Alive conscious showing
Abandon by God
Warmth of death comforts my skin
I did not ask to live
I won't accept the end
Leave me with my grief
Every breath is shaking
Scars left and wide open
Abandon by God
Warmth of death comforts my skin
Leave me with my grief
8. The Age Of The Atheist
What do you see depends of what you are looking for and what are you looking for, needs to be believed.
It needs to exist in your head, you need to believe to disbelief.
What do you see depends on the idea planted in your mind, what type of seeds have been planted?
What do you believe depends on what you see!
Diversions are blocking our vision from the truth, the clear reality
Diversions turn our world to shit must stop. Deny!
No Gods, no leaders, no prophets telling my future!
No heaven, no hell, not a messiah!
The needle of our medicine injecting poison vaccines
Our veins no longer carry blood – robotized – I deny!
No news, no ads, no anchor telling us lies
No secrets, no war, there’s no savior!
It’s the age of the atheist!
All your senses – eyes wide open
It’s the age of the atheist!
9. Obsessed
I can't stop the fear that's killing
No denying, hope is dying
Living in Hell!
Fear that's killing, no denying, hope is dying
Living in Hell!
Want that, need that, I must have that
Hunger endless, restless spirit
Once you taste the pain of sorrow
No tomorrow, doom upon us
Living in Hell!
Once you live it, no forgiveness, rotting sickness
Living in Hell!
Sleepless nights, inviting terror
Impending doom of death and horror
First it starts in the brain
Heavy thoughts that haunt me everyday
A mental trip of helplessness
I can't help but believe I was born obsessed
Obsessed
Fear that's killing, no denying, hope is dying
Living in Hell!
Fear that's killing, no denying, hope is dying
Living in Hell!
There's no future but an end
Hopeless pounding is always deep inside my head
Unwilling to change, it's just insane
Lost in dark I fall paralysed
Obsessed
It sneaks its way to haunt reality
All seems hopeless over valued ideas
Unwilling to change
Drifting further into the eternal darkness
10. Da Lama Ao Caos
[originally by Chico Science & Nação Zumbi]
Posso sair daqui para me organizar
Posso sair daqui para desorganizar
Posso sair daqui para me organizar
Posso sair daqui para desorganizar
Da lama ao caos, do caos a lama
Um homem roubado nunca se engana
Da lama ao caos, do caos a lama
Um homem roubado nunca se engana
O sol queimou, queimou a lama do rio
Eu ví um Chié andando devagar
E um aratu pra lá e pra cá
E um carangueijo andando pro sul
Saiu do mangue, virou gabiru
Oh Josué eu nunca ví tamanha desgraça
Quanto mais miséria tem, mais urubu ameaça
Peguei o balaio, fui na feira roubar tomate e cebola
Ia passando uma véia, pegou a minha cenoura
Aí minha véia, deixa a cenoura aquí
Com a barriga vazia não consigo dormir
E com o bucho mais cheio comecei a pensar
Que eu me organizando posso desorganizar
Que eu desorganizando posso me organizar
Que eu me organizando posso desorganizar
Da lama ao caos
Do caos à lama
Um homem roubado nunca se engana.

12. Zombie Ritual
[Deluxe Edition Bonus Track]
[originally by Death]
Revengeful corpse out to kill
Smell the stench, your guts will spill
Vomit for a mind, maggots for a cock
With his axe the corpse will chop
Stare into his eyes
Now in his spell
Kiss the rotting flesh
Now you're in hell
Drink from the goblet, the goblet of gore
Taste the zombie's drug, now you want more
Drifting from the living, joining with the dead
Zombie dwelling maggots, now infest your head
Zombie ritual
Zombie ritual
Ceremony now complete
Chosen one is now deceased
Fucking, raping zombie whores
Killing, feasting no remorse
Stare into his eyes
Now in his spell
Kiss the rotting flesh
Now you're in hell
Drink from the goblet, the goblet of gore
Taste the zombie's drug, now you want more
Drifting from the living, joining with the dead
Zombie dwelling maggots, now infest your head
Zombie ritual
Zombie ritual
