I came here to stone you; will you turn your cheek? I came here alone now; shield the young and the meek Clouds of anger, fists of rage Through the darkness a violent stage Gripped with fear, you die a slave Dig for you, a shallow grave No witness, it’s only us Everything returns to dust Bring the living before me; I’ll put the weary to rest Violent retributions; put your flesh to the test Times a taker of all living things, and you’re a puppet on its strings Gripped with fear, you die a slave Dig for you, a shallow grave No witness, it’s only us Everything returns to dust Ashes to ashes, dust to dust To see my face before you; then you know it’s too late Reveal my true form to you; steal the breath of your fate Times a taker of all living things, and you’re a puppet on its strings Gripped with fear, you die a slave Dig for you, a shallow grave No witness, it’s only us Everything returns to dust Return to dust

You say the fire came from the sun Ordered by the anointed one And all the time you had was your own Now the time has passed you by And withered in the lookers eye Silver like the wizards of lore Now you sit and scream at the sun Lonely like the eldest one Blisters form beneath the skin Now you sit and scream at the sun Helpless as an infant one Pestilence starts from within Bomb dropped from the Enola Gay Came from the sky from miles away 60 years now to the day We watched them melt We watched them burn They’re children died we’ll never learn How can we live with ourselves, no way Oh how they scream at the sun Mothers mourn for the missing ones As the radiation eats from within Oh how they scream at the sun scream at the sun Fathers weep for the chosen ones And the cancer…slowly will win The bomb is not a resolution And it’s not a way to live It’s a means for an execution And a means that we can’t forgive Man wants to rule this world Even if by fire Man wants respect in the land But no one follows liars Now he sits and stares at the sun Helpless as an infant one Blistering and burning Now he stares at the sun again Blistering and burning stares at the sun…blind eyes dead Now he sits and screams at the sun Blistering and burning Repeat

I hate it when you beat me, feel abandoned when you don’t I get afraid when you leave me, and I’m scared when you don’t Why do you leave me with so much pain inside It’s just the fear of love It’s just the fear of hate It’s just the fear of everything that’s you, it’s just the fear You are a bitter man who once had his pride And there is no where left to hide It’s time to die It’s just the fear of you It’s just the fear of love It’s just the fear of hate It’s just the fear of everything that’s you, it’s just the fear You control me with your anger, and you fill me with your shame Your life is built on fear, and you’re the only one to blame Why do you leave me with so much pain inside The things you’ve done to my mind The things you’ve done to my soul The things I’m gonna do to you The abused will abuse And I am about to break Love… It’s just the fear of hate It’s just the fear of everything that’s you, it’s just the fear Pay close attention to what I’m about to do I’m gonna focus all my anger, gonna take it out on you I will leave you with so much pain inside It’s just the fear of Life It’s just the fear of Death It’s just the fear of Me It’s just the fear of Me!

Miscreation 04:07
Boy…Don’t Push me Boy…it’s to Late I am seeing red All control is all gone Why’d you have to lie Now you have to die I’ll break my fucken foot off in your ass You will never last I don’t think you’ll live through this You will never see my face Gone without a trace No one will never even know your name You look into my eyes Then you slowly die for this Keep my name from your lips

Marked by hatred for mankind Isolated from society They, them, all…are my enemies I, am my own enemy Here I sit, alone in the dark The sun has set and black now covers me ..and still I sit, alone in the dark Wondering what my soul looks like underneath all this skin, and where do I begin There’s no sympathy today …and nothing left to say There you sit, alone in the dark I wonder what your skull looks like underneath all that skin Where it ends, or it begins There’s nothing left for us to say …and so we pass and go our separate ways Your ways that way and I have lost my way home No way home No way home for me today

End of Peace 04:34
It was only yesterday, that you were gone My life turned upside down, isolation calls Your lips burned poison, your tongue spoke pain Your eyes threw daggers deep into my veins The battle that rages inside you, is a feeling that haunts me No signs of forgiveness, no signs of peace! Peace, Love, Hate So this is how it feels, to be alone No piercing stare that cuts me to the bone Blood runs off my tongue, you better run No longer love, all I feel is hate The battle that rages inside me, is a feeling that haunts you No signs of forgiveness, no signs of peace! Is this the ending, or a new beginning? Will this war ever cease? Is this the end, the end of peace? The battle that rages inside me, is a feeling that haunts you No signs of forgiveness, no signs of peace!

Born in the Shadows, a creature of the dark Raised by the spirits, bearing the Reapers mark The worms eat from my eyes, and swallow all my lies In this temple of denial, I arise to walk the catacombs I think the writing said...It is the Palace of the Dead The Palace of the Dead The weak shall inherit the after birth, the meek shall inherit my wrath Black waters in a dark canyon, flow through my soul I can hear a voice calling to me... Welcome to the Palace of the Dead Welcome to Welcome to Palace of the Dead Welcome to Palace of the Dead Circumference of the darkness, choking out the light Figures cloaked in shadow, on an endless night Thou shalt not reveal, no Leave all hope at the gates…No hope…at the Palace of the Dead I left all hope at the gates THE DEAD They buried me in the earth of kings THE DEAD And surrounded me with ethereal things THE DEAD I have passed on to the…The Palace of the Dead

You’re scared alone and hiding in your home Feel the dark conspire You've lost your faith You close your eyes, slumber you desire The obscure consumes Fear thy neighbor Why do you tremble? Why do you weep? Close your eyes and pretend to sleep ...and I desire I sneak in Without being seen No one will ever hear you scream ...your life is over Fear thy neighbor Look in my eyes And see the fire burning cold It's a lonely road A burden I carry all my own I wear the badge of fear I need control when you’re here I fool all with my disguise Lurking, hiding there somewhere in the dark I move just a little closer Dizzy feel I’m slipping standing at the edge This is what I said Fear thy neighbor With a mask and a guise of sanity Calls to the voice inside my head Fear thy neighbor The urge grows stronger can’t deny it any longer Soon you’ll all be dead Fear thy neighbor This power is like no other The need to sadistically dominate It won’t go away, today

Shadows 07:10
In the light of the day In a blink of an eye A shadow it passes your way From deep in your past Escaping your sight A shadow it hides in your mind It starts as a thought A footprint in time Images triggered by pain Unfocused and vague Your senses unclear The shadow forgotten reveals Shadows-a footprint in time They hide in your mind Shadows-they,ve caught up to you You may never be free Shadows-in the dark of the day The forgotten revealed Shadows-focused and clear Feeling once lost Now buried alive Now starring you straight in the face There’s no were to run There’s no were to hide Shadows remember your name In the dark of the night To the shadows delight A glimpse of the past in unveiled You watch it unfold As if you were there Your greatest fear rises in truth
