1. Blood Red blood, bad blood, cold blood, sad blood Bloody all the way. Blue blood, pure blood, mud blood, come blood Wash blood stains away. Draw blood, no blood, young blood, dried blood, Snow blood, hot blood, you drew first blood. Your drew first blood, Having no victim, I find it odd. (They say that blood is thicker then water, I say that shit is thicker than blood. You kept your word to the other world So now we bleed and die.) You kept your word to the other world, It was a blast you didn't last (Blood signed odium. manufacture mutated revulsion But he who swore to live by the sword, His blood will spill forever more.) You kept your word to the other world It was a blast you didn't last. To see the day the prophets say Armageddon call to end it all. Open the gates of hell! Red blood, bad blood, cold blood, sad blood Bloody all the way. Blue blood, pure blood, mud blood, come blood Wash blood stains away. Draw blood, no blood, young blood, dried blood, Snow blood, hot blood, you drew first blood. 2. Amona A spineless reign shows signs of fear of the enemy Divide the land, tear out the heart of the nation A war declared by a state on its citizens It's our last stand: We head straight to Amona! We love our fatherland Yet fear our government Once on a mission but now banned Keep getting high while we descend Time's running out, maybe we are forsaken By an ancient God whose anger has overtaken His sense of pride his promise for the chosen! We can not hide the monster you have awakened We love our fatherland Yet fear our government Once on a mission but now banned Keep getting high while we descend This is the end, we will be gone by sunrise We won't be dead thus we will walk among you And find high courts who're pretty low on justice Today it's me, who'll be tomorrow's practice? 3. Idol Worship There just one God There just one God There just one God There just one... God! Those admiring beauty Those who worship skin Those who fight for freedom So they can live in sin It's all just idol worshiping God's might we are adulterating Retreat! Yet believe we are advancing It's all just devil advocating Trendy fashions the fountain of youth Mask your path and cloud the truth Don't cling to life yet throw it away Making Idols to whom in vain you pray Those who're blinded by money Like those who live for sex Those whose lives are funny Yet they're popping pills for stress It's all just idol worshiping God's might we are adulterating Retreat! Yet believe we are advancing It's all just devil advocating There is just one God! Trendy fashions the fountain of youth Mask your path and cloud the truth Don't cling to life yet throw it away Making Idols to whom in vain you pray Those addicted shoppers And those who think they've won Like those who blame others Every time they use their gun It's all just idol worshiping God's might we are adulterating Retreat! Yet believe we are advancing It's all just devil advocating There is just one god There is one just 4. Mindless Tight fight quite a night, will it ever end Sight light fright and might, are words that end the same This is (this is meaningless) No words to regret (no words to regret) M2 (M2 will approve) Listen to this groove (listen to this groove) Tight fight quite a night, words and words again Sight light fright and might, can you count to ten? Mindless Meaningless Emptiness in the form of content Clueless Stressless Ready for consumption junk Mindless!! x4 This is (this is meaningless) No words to regret (no words to regret) M2 (M2 will approve) Listen to this groove (listen to this groove) Tight fight quite a night, will it ever end Sight light fright and might, are words that end the same Tight fight what a night, words and words again Sight light frightened might, I know I sound insane Mindless Meaningless Emptiness in the form of content Clueless Stressless Ready for consumption junk Mindless! 5. Hypatia At times I do have visions of the past Some might last but most die fast Like one Egyptian woman's dire fate It's easy to destroy hard to create Cinaron consuming her mangled severed limbs Cyril is assuming that from now on he's at ease Drag her off her lofty throne Take her to Caesareum church Blind should always lead the blind And the brave will walk alone (It's time to burn her blood The witch will soon be dead) Savagely butchered skinned to please a god Brutally mangled it's time to burn her blood Savagely butchered skinned to please a god Brutally mangled it's time to burn her blood Cinaron consuming her mangled severed limbs Cyril is assuming that from now on he's at ease Serapeum on fire Idolatry must end One last symbol remaining The witch will soon be dead 6. Strife There's more than 24 hours of pain (hours of pain) Present in every passing day (so i watch what i say) So i watch what i say Life is a strife Time's worth a dime Both of which I have none It's a sign Re-align Although at my prime I live like slime Once upon Skeleton A ladder to climb not for real just in mime You can cry You can sigh But life will go on and leave you behind There's more than 60 minutes of hell (minutes of hell) Present each hour I know it so well so (I fear my death bell) So I fear my death bell Life is a strife... There's less than 60 seconds of sin (seconds of sin) I counted in one minute's grin (there is no way to win) There is no way to win Life is a strife... 7. Resentment Wrath, aches Are all that's left Mistakes I made up to now Are the reason I hate myself I can't tell if the world is losing me Or if the world has made me lose it (Will I outlive the coming sunrise? Was this the last of my tomorrows? Do you think I had it coming? I'm dead to pain I'm numb to sorrows) I can't decide when I died Proud, march Towards the dark horizon No company to comfort me My game is over It's time I brought the curtains down My play is done my crowd's all gone I can't decide when I died It's time I brought the curtains down My play is done my crowd's all gone I can't tell if the world is losing me Or if the world has made me lose it 8. Making A Difference Some times I think that anything Would be better than this Inside my shrine no one's allowed Hidden from passersby Cerebral shelter from this world Safe from this hell You need no eyes. To see the injustice And breathe in the lies Some times I think that anything Would be better than this Inside my shrine no one's allowed Hidden from passersby Cerebral shelter from this world Feeling bad is not enough to feed the starving Or call their bluff Getting mad is not a way to aid the helpless Who die each day To make a difference we'd have to rebel Against the system that's not treating us well Against all religions who set us apart Through hate and through fear you won't win my heart Against mediocrity which says it's OK To be wrong, go along, and have nothing to say And against all the people who by bringing you Down feel so right and important but their tongues are brown Some times I think that anything Would be better than this Inside my shrine no one's allowed Hidden from passersby Cerebral shelter from this world Safe from this hell You need no eyes. To see the injustice And breathe in the lies 9. More Blood [instrumental] 10. Once Upon A Lifetime Part I (Houston we have a problem) This song will fester inside your little head If time allows it, at a later date This song is a testimony of what we were force fed Beaten, battered and left for dead. Cat and mice play dice underneath your bedroom window To slice and dice and raise the price of war orphans and widows I am the rage of a generation - misled, gone astray I am the voice of liberation about to break the chain Born for no good reason, made to feel at home Practicing consumerism inside this pleasure dome 11. Once Upon A Lifetime Part II Do you think you are safe? Do you think they will spare you? Do you think they are done with you If they say that it's over? So you believe it is over Did they make you forget your dead? Did they plant some hope in you Before they ran for cover? The world is a loaded pistol I'll try to ease the pain I'm here to secure a future On the surface not down the drain Did they put it behind you? Did they say you could trust them? Did they say they will not come for more When this war was over? The world is a loaded pistol I'll try to ease the pain I'm here to secure a future On the surface not down the drain I hear voices / a distant shadow / bloody traces Is this death row? Morning sunrise / endless darkness / foolish mankind Divine sadness... This was my main agenda Here comes you lullaby One day you will comprehend it I think this is a fair goodbye 12. Once Upon A Lifetime Part III [lullaby:] Between my sunrises And all my twilights Before what's right You are my truth However after And in between it I have a life Meaning you 13. Once Upon A Lifetime Part IV I am the eyes of my new religion You are it's heart and soul You are the new face on my new television About to take control (What do we leave behind but painful memories? What'll be on my mind when heart and blood flow cease?) I am the arms of my new religion Your part makes me whole Your show is top rated on my television Sucks me in like a black hole I wish my breath could roam inside you And dissipate all fear I hope you'll let our home surround you Even when we're not here I am the mouth of my new religion You're the actor with the lead role Someone please turn on my new television Guarding life is my main goal (Was there a point in time you felt at your prime? Was life a progressive clime or just a successive decline?) I'll gladly die for my new religion All for one and one for all There's only truth on my brand new television Life's a never ending ball I wish my breath could roam inside you And dissipate all fear I hope you'll let our home surround you Even when we're not here I am the eyes You are the soul I am your life You are my all This was my entire agenda There goes your lullaby A day will come and you'll comprehend it For now this was my fair goodbye (One small step for men, One giant leap for mankind) 14.
