War Eternal 05:51
Born to the world with the sword in the hand The never ending war is waging on Blood of the feeble stains the roots of the land Tainting the newborn warriors Baptized in blood of the enemy Feed off their flesh in your revelry No prisoners, turn them to trophies Your body count is your currency War The nature of reality to kill Challengers shall know no mercy Stand, and fight those who resist supreme command Behold the anarchy Kill and kill and kill The Endless War commands Know where you belong One amongst an infinite of casualties Kill and kill and kill The Endless War commands Face the endless from fronts Chaos purging all throughout the War Eternal Nations are formed and they fall day by day Enemies created everywhere Traitors shall shatter alliances of war Horrors from the front are taken home Besiege the walls you construct in the mind Each memory stained by sounds of strife Fall not before the destructive lies The battle scars find the enemy inside War The nature of reality to kill Challengers shall know no mercy Stand, and fight those who resist supreme command Behold the anarchy Kill and kill and kill The Endless War commands Know where you belong One amongst an infinite of casualties Kill and kill and kill The Endless War commands Face the endless from fronts Chaos purging all throughout the War Eternal Move from the fist, to the stone, to the sword Arrows, to bullets, to bombs The war without end calls for spilling of blood Staining the skies to the seas Combat the vile and eviscerate Just fight like hell and incinerate Eternal War shall obliterate Thine enemies, exterminate War The nature of reality to kill Challengers shall know no mercy Stand, and fight those who resist supreme command Behold the anarchy Kill and kill and kill The Endless War commands Know where you belong One amongst an infinite of casualties Kill and kill and kill The Endless War commands Face the endless from fronts Chaos purging all throughout the War Eternal

Look what we have here The masses smell their fear The weak are power tripping And so your end is near Stray from the fasces take aim No need for defence guilty is the verdict Cancelled not for crime just shame Seek not forgiveness punishment is predetermined Ostrakon Ostrakon Ostrakon Twist the knife inflame the schism Ostrakon Ostrakon Ostrakon Trial By Television Evidence? What's that? Emotions are our facts Target with tunnel vision 'Cause instinct says attack Stray from the fasces take aim No need for defence guilty is the verdict Cancelled not for crime just shame Seek not forgiveness punishment is predetermined Ostrakon Ostrakon Ostrakon Twist the knife inflame the schism Ostrakon Ostrakon Ostrakon Trial By Television Freedom makes you more a target Demonstrated isolated Taking away identity You'll be undone no salvation Volatile human denial Dehumanize campaign of lies Seek your justice but find injustice No forgiveness. Who will be next?

Grovel on the ground and exhibit your woes to me Bargain with your master who beholds your agony Your gods are made disciples by the idol in disguise So choose to sell your nature or beget your genocide The spectacle of bloodshed consecrates our sovereignty Anointed by the gore, we bring order to anarchy Systemized amusement crafts our laughs from founded cries The supremacist requests that your life be cast aside Shed the blood, we call for encore Take your bow, vile hypocrite Justify, through monologues The Genocide Spectacle The audience applauds the master of battered marionettes The patrons watch the game that must oblige their thin pockets The blade that cuts the string shall hail another casting call And so the show goes on so that the master spares us all Culling of the herd of lower lives for our contempt Scourge that lives within you right from our experiment Your children birthed deformed is the price paid in your fall Merged your torment to your bones, created animal Shed the blood, we call for encore Take your bow, vile hypocrite Justify, through monologues The Genocide Spectacle I'm the creator of your pain That you feel every day So cleanse hate from your thoughts And kneel before your god Nigh, the day of law, the destiny that you oppose Scars upon your fists shall not deny coming sorrow So take your place among your brethren so menial Speak your lines and wear the mask, abide the spectacle Hail to your actor and hail your war hero Damn the rebel who would threaten your sweet status quo Hail to your conqueror who pleases our primeval Hail the king whose crown is forged in bone and kept through evil Shed the blood, we call for encore Take your bow, vile hypocrite Justify, through monologues The Genocide Spectacle Shed the blood, we call for encore Take your bow, vile hypocrite Justify, through monologues The Genocide Spectacle

Rorschach 06:32
Gaze into the ink blot Tell me what you see We'll find your diagnosis Define insanity The black and the white gazing into the soul The patient is changing his mind as we mold The violence he lives speaks to him on the page Get him locked in the room with his body restrained I see the dog with its head split in half I see the whore who bewails for my world Remake him with Rorschach torture Gaze into the ink blot We'll try this again Our judgement finds you guilty So back to the room for your punishment! The black and the white stand behind manic eyes Yet still he is blind and keeps preaching his lies The mad dog is leashed 'til we're free of our fear But his betterment nearing, he soon shall see clear I see the dog with its head split in half I see the whore who bewails for my world Remake him with Rorschach torture Gaze into the ink blot Erase your inner thoughts Ready for your lesson? You will see what I want The black and the white displace your sentience Your restraints may come off, we absolve your offence Your life's yours to do as we've made it, subdued For our vision, to pursue our nihilist truth I see the ones who would lead for the good I see the strength of the new loving world Remake him with Rorschach torture

Open fire The whistle blows The nations call you to spill the blood Over the trench Through No Man's Land The objective is all that matters now Take up your arms And join your brothers The highest price awaits should you fail So take 'em out We'll make 'em pay Their blood shall foster Our divine ascension Let the rodents come Feed on our decay The stench of rotting flesh in the air Eat from this vessel of war This pile of youth Been Left for the Rats Digging through our bullet wounds Horde to us and let thee consume It's time to feast The bodies blanket the shambled ground Keep pushing through Harvest their screams To win the game, you wagered your life So burn 'em out And inhale the gas We're growing through your shambled corpse Get blown away Your courage failed The mortars are thrashing your shattered mind So let the rodents come Feed on our decay The stench of rotting flesh in the air Eat from this vessel of war This pile of youth Been Left for the Rats Digging through our bullet wounds Horde to us and let thee consume Limbless Mindless Hopeless Take my pain! Kill - sustain Our kind Die - Our sacrifice Flesh - We feed on you War - the Hunger appeased I'm bleeding out The dead are all that's left The rats dig through their organs now A hollow corpse What awaits me A friendless death, undignified Your life drains out And becomes Ours We honour your great sacrifice As sustenance So fold the flags And take the next trench to push through the hunt So let the rodents come Feed on our decay The stench of rotting flesh in the air Eat from this vessel of war This pile of youth Been Left for the Rats Digging through our bullet wounds Horde to us and let thee consume

Forsaken 06:05
I'm feeling so alone. Trapped here inside this low My mind unfolds, losing my hold This world just feels so cold Been painted an outcast. A thing that's of the past A piece of trash, they kick my ass They think my life won't last Disposable to them, they pull the chain at their convenience Then cast away again and shift the blame, I'll take your guilt Keep me from our haven, your punishment is what I deserve Leave me Forsaken; my rage the warmth in this void of cold What did I do wrong? You're shaming me, defaming me You fucking left - Gone In pain again, I'm Forsaken You're the bedrock of my world, now I'm gonna die This pain inside, force me to cry Brought on by painted lies Abandoned in reprimand, but my crime I can't understand You change your plans, I'm made unman My fiery rage is fanned They're rotting at the core, yet at the face they're still showing friend Leave me to keep you pure, so in the end you're like all the rest Inside, direct my scorn. I'll close my eyes, won't see through your lies What's real, I can't be sure. I'm left alone with no one to trust What did I do wrong? You're shaming me, defaming me You fucking left - Gone In pain again, I'm Forsaken Nostalgia Is my prison and Misery Keeps me from jailbreak I Can't face this world alone You've All made me decrepit My life has been set adrift Losing myself to pain Rage is consuming me No one to subdue it I Fucking Hate It All No sleep can come to me When I'm alone, my mind erodes Awake, my nightmares stay The screaming death of my sentience What once we had mocks me You fucking lied, I hope you die This grieving is on you You put me down, you put me out They've made me ostracized My world despair, it's all unfair Can't tell if I still feel I feel the pain, you'll feel the flame I beg you, please just stay They'll go away, they're all the same You'll feel the empathy You can't ignore, I'm at your door And together we'll all burn in hell

Cast to the ground bound to eat dust for eternity Like a fool your prideful vice became your casus belli When you cried your pride beget your cunning into wrath Then you spoke your lustful knowledge slaved us into your grasp Born into us the sins you gave to blind us to the truth led astray Corrupt us with the lie that you would claim is for good And our chains are internalized Made us to serve the Lifeblood of Evil Cast out and turned into foe Father see my power grow Sacrifice your sons My word claims their souls Children with no defence Bled of your innocence I shall set you free My deliverance Cast out and turned into foe Father see my power grow Sacrifice your sons My word claims their souls

No excuses. No liars, punks, or fakes We'll make you bleed; we have no patience for the weak You'll feel the pain; you're just a traitor to the cause So you'll die in shame at the cruel hand of Metal gods If you ain't fast enough, well then we don't fuckin' need ya If you ain't good enough, then we'll have to fuckin' teach ya Hand the beatings out Crushed beneath the crowd, we're gonna fuckin' lay you in the ground We've been held back by your weakness long enough You've made your choices and you betrayed all our trust Your apathy will not prevent us to arise We'll outlet our hate by harvesting your craven cries If you ain't fast enough, well then we don't fuckin' need ya If you ain't good enough, then we'll have to fuckin' teach ya Hand the beatings out Crushed beneath the crowd, we're gonna fuckin' lay you in the ground No Sympathy for the fucking Pitiful No Sympathy for the fucking Pitiful No Sympathy No Sympathy No Sympathy No Sympathy No Sympathy No Sympathy No Sympathy No Sympathy We fucking said it once, there's no mercy to deviants who don't conform Pray, refuge doesn't come. There's not a god who can save you from our scorn You've laid your faith in hollow souls. You live a parasite devoid of all integrity amongst the fake, the posers You'll never know the power thrashing us to glory as a family Head Bang or Fucking Die
