1) Incarnate 365
Imprisoned on this dying shell,
escape is inevitable.
Light burns bright
beneath these eyes,
more than mere flesh lies salvageable.
Imaginations, indefinite neglect,
worst type of crime of all.
Child's mind, all the time,
before you become, your own, evil.
Thrown away tomorrows
scattered along the sides of the road,
the nights lied awake plotting,
the demise of a love.
You will never know.
::top::
2) No One
You talk and you fucking talk,
Your bullshit never stops.
You think anyone is afraid, of all those friends you've betrayed?
Who's gonna back you up now?
Alone in your own little crowd,
Thinking you're the one who's in control.
Your stupid shit is getting so old.
No one.
Your words mean nothing to me,
and vengeance, cross me again and we'll see.
You'll be the one to fucking pay.
::top::
3) Systems Overload
Systems, overloading,
fear envelopes me.
Cry out for redemption,
blind, forgotten - seen.
Looking around on these streets,
there's nothing left to do.
Penance through your charities
now it's turned on you.
Demons, looking in on me,
slipping through the cracks
watching, starving, waiting...
timing their attack.
Beyond the flesh that imprisons,
Beyond the death you've envisioned,
Beyond the fear you'll embrace,
giving your life a foul taste.
Systems overloading,
fear envelopes me,
cry out for redemption,
blind, forgotten - seen.
All the while fighting,
trying to get on top.
Once the focus changes
all your senses...
stop.
::top::
4) Armenian Persecution
All I can think about is revenge,
The slaughter inside my head never ends.
And to all who deny this sin
Baba Eed Janed Cach-Men.
Ethnic genocide,
one million died,
cries went unheard in 1915.
No one remembers, no one believes,
some turks deny, but they fucking lie.
America knew, but as usual
they just stood by and listened to the cries.
"Why interfere? There's no money here
who are the Armenians, who fucking cares if they're alive,
who cares if they fucking survive".
Forced in the desert and into sandy graves,
children were murdered while their mothers were raped.
Babies were thrown in the air and impaled on swords,
nothing but death from the Turkish hordes.
Dispersal took place some Armenians escaped,
most met a cruel end.
Now we are few but we'll always be true,
to the Armenians that we will defend.
First they were bound, then split with an axe,
they juggled their heads and the turks laughed.
Set on fire like human torch,
many were nailed alive to the floor...

5) Grace Of The Unholy
A cycle to repeat itself,
no matter how you try to ignore.
The first stages of innocence
instilled since before you were born.
Your world's punishments fulfills all your wrongs,
pathetic flesh involved pawn.
Arriving on a sea of red,
the cycle continues on.
Struggling to survive,
deceit,
it's coming down.
Out of societies bother,
you won`t make a sound.
A new horror for every horizon.
Away from all the obstacles you've seen.
An end to elusive unknowns.
Behind the curtain of your dreams,
beneath this flesh that constricts,
exists more freedom than insanity.
To sink past the core of your soul,
escaping the shackles of humanity
escape.
::top::
6) Forevers Horizon
Empowered by the duality,
memories abruptly fade.
Slipped behind salvation's dress,
time expires at half speed.
Aiding in the destruction,
blind to your dreams intensity.
While your existence, ceases to exist,
it's too late to believe.
Into oblivion's arms,
all desires dissipate.
Forevers horizon pulling me in,
this wasn't supposed to be the way.
I was never good enough for your society,
and you never let me forget your contempt for my kind.
Everyday you tried to keep me down
but now you've changed and want to start coming around.
Past won't be forgotten.
::top::
7) Mediator
Snared in it's path
can't get away.
I smolder,
each and every day.
I won't forget the treats you made.
It's closing in on me.
Your rules don't apply to me, "I'm not gonna talk it out".
I've heard it all before,
won't hear it again.
Now I'm gonna make it end.
condemned me,
publicly,
can't back up a word you've said.
You can't run, you can't hide
I'm gonna get my revenge,
can't keep me down.
You never wanted me around,
hated me from the start.
Now your words are tearing you apart,
brought it all on yourself.
You're never gonna be safe,
should have thought it over better.
Before you chose to mediate,
never forget, never forgive.
Vengeance consumes my mind,
It'll keep building up inside.
For as long as I live.
::top::
8) Salvation's Malevolence
Severed forever, I am - never getting up again.
I've breathed in life - don`t want this to ever end.
Stolen glance and I can't - to save the end of me.
Temptation fills the house - sin of iniquities.
Cast shadows walk into my light,
all my soul consumed by pride.
I've feared the heavens for far too long,
await this moment with open arms.
Denied ascent, forbidden salvation.
This blind contempt can't go unanswered.
On my knees, I can`t breath -
in this infernal, damnation.
Seasons in the size of days, I wait
confined by salvation's malevolence
to decide my fate.
All alone, I call your near,
you've shown compassion... and sincere.
Look at the place that I'm in,
Blanked by your prejudice, your fears, your ignorance.
Still, in the corner I see them stalking me,
they taste the cowardice in the air,
enhancing their hunger, they move in close,r
terror blinds, salvation's gratitude confines...
I can almost feel the...
DEMON, ingested soul.
I've sworn eternal vengeance.
to the deceit that let me fucking go.
Revere the hatred in his eyes,
before my turn never arrives.
Avenge my soul, unjustly sized.
I've looked and tried,
can`t see the reason,
between the lies.
Baptisms curse involves entirely.
Casting upon an immense decision.
Saviour's scorn, crown of thorns.
Salvation.
::top::
9) Fading Away
Slipped right through my fingers,
afraid to take control.
Watched on from the sidelines,
every moment took it's toll.
I can't forget, too much regret,
it'll never escape my soul.
Haunting me everyday,
as i slowly fade away.
Walking through your eyes one more time,
I finally realize it all has gone away again.

20) Live It Down
Experimenting on the innocent, destroying their lives to cover up your worthless hide.
I can feel the pain, my anger, still remains, I'll never let you... Live it down.
Rage of the souls that you have devoured, seers through my heart To fuel my power.
Hate for humankind, how can you sleep at night knowing what you have done in the passing of a day?
How many innocent creatures must pay For the luxury of your life?
I cannot see, refuse to believe, I won't stand for it anymore.
In the name of humanity, I beg you, to open your eyes and see the evil, the murder, you commit day after day.
You may be able to live with yourself... But can you deal with me?
::top::
21) Bringing It Back
To a time when this was all mine, we fought for this land.
No one can say otherwise approached in fear, fled when we came near you knew the boundaries, and you stood clear Bringing It Back Fists of truth.
Bringing It Back, wrapping that chain around their throats.
What once was pure, now plagued by your disease, my hate for weakness burns through me, and to the survivors lost in the shadows of our tree.
This scene shall once again fall to its knees.
Bringing It Back, your misery, Bringing It Back
One life... Drug free.
Watching day after day I see this world destroying itself with hate as you sink to the hell you belong in Nothing left for you, nothing left but... Regret.
::top::
22) Dead Wrong
What appeared to be so innocent, just a front to cover up your lies.
You had it all planned from the start.
Their loss is your gain, you didn't think it over too clearly.
Because you were... Dead wrong.
No avoiding, what must be done.
Fight to win, fight to overcome.
You have no choice, of what you can do.
Enjoy the pain as it seers through you.
There will be no second chances, no escape this time.
Go ahead and run, there's no place you can hide.
We'll hunt you down, so you know exactly how your prey felt thought.
It was just - a simple sport, in my eyes you're just a murderer.
You don't kill for survival, you kill for cruelty. You went from being the hunter to being hunted You are dead...
