You keep running with the plague of the earth And it makes me fucking sick Prolonged, we should have stamped you out at birth I'm in the soil beneath your feet I'm running for the hell of it I'm running for the fuck of it There is no dollar on this earth That could buy the eyes out of my sockets Self inflicted wounds have rotted Blind men, bloody pockets In young minds What is just is so clear Deep in your mind What is just is so clear With age we become Used to what we see and hear

Armed to the teeth Scars on your knees Marked until death For every quick fix Every weeping sore Every poisoned pore Won't be long Won't belong Won't be long You won't belong Won't be long Won't belong Won't be long Coward Wounds that will fade But not go away Cut your losses Count your lessons Someday you'll learn what love means My hands washed clean My hands washed clean Your demons Death grips the rope Tightens around your filthy lust Death grips the rope Death grips the rope Death grips the rope Coward

When you put that needle to your chest And swore on your life You'd never take a second for granted in this Who's throne did you make such a kneeling promise on You're just a man, flesh and blood and carbon Did you think that God would get you through this You're just a pawn, a marionette With no control over your next move Hung by your throat Your next move (At least thats what they said) Your next move (At least thats what they said) Your next move (At least thats what they said) Your next move

Lurk 04:31
I've become the very animal I swore i'd never inhabit The clock crosses it's hands Over and over This process of elimination I've set in motion is stagnant My emotions eliminated My emotions eliminated This is what hanging from the cross must have felt like The pig in his stall, living to die No barrier, between the beast No barrier, between the beast and I Die Die Like a bear on a chain I'd do almost anything To escape the ring What a circus our society has become This suburban game To reach a goal no one can afford to obtain The price is your soul How far would you go To be accepted for only who you know We put ourselves on display On a day to day basis Basis We put ourselves on display On a day to day basis Only to stare at the faces of those who found a way

Peasant King 03:33
Insatiable whore Daughter of the preacher Rotting at the core Hollow filth Like the apple in her fathers pew We'll be rusting and wishing While copper erodes In the well of our youth We'll find strength in numbers 4-0 4-0 Sons and brothers Crying out from the gutter At the doorstep of the bankers ball At the heart of the harvest Peasant king Locust kin Hammering Hammering, hammering, hammering Hammering, hammering, hammering

Wolf Valley 02:46
I will not apologize I was born with a critical mind They said look up to the sky and I'll tell you what to see Neck deep, I trudge through the shit Deal me death before ignorance The wise men came from Juilliard To find a rat persistently teething Here in the valley now Where the rain pours in and funnels down In the age where eyes grow in our palms How do the mountains obscure your thoughts I'll remain with teeth bared here Both eyes open and cautious ear Holy is as holy does And holy always sleeps in Blood Blood Blood Son please drink this wine for it's in your bones And if you get drunk this way I'll save you from the demons of this world But don't you think a thing all on your own Read this verse to them Welcome them to our world Repent Regret Lose yourself give in forget Take a bottle down for the holiest saviour Sell it, sell it, buy it, load it, shoot it Junkies flock from all around for the holiest saviour Down, down, down, down Savior Savior Save yourself

Ritual 03:02
Slaughter the heart of that which you can not relate The shame is your own not of those you've laid to waste Slash their throats, crush their bones Skin the outer layers of their hide Childlike souls Childlike souls Childlike souls Fight to find the light Salt the earth Hands in the dirt Take what you can Kill everyone Fuck the innocent Fuck the innocent Fuck the innocent Don't bat an eye as the blood transforms into dollar signs You've got the world at your feet So put your foot on it's back An early grave for the slaves put to death by the weak You've got your hand in the pot And the water is boiling, boiling Keep from the cold while they pray for sleep Keep from the cold while they pray for sleep Keep from the cold Keep from the cold Right you are (right you are) Right you are (right you are) Right you are (right you are)

Day in, day out Soak up, spit out Every evil, every plague Curse your friends In bed with demons Spiral downwards Our arms are open Doors are closing Hearts are breaking Here to help you in fighting The battle you're losing Gaze through me With unconscious eyes Gaze through me Curse your friends Curse your friends Curse your friends Curse your friends Eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes With unconscious eyes With unconscious eyes With unconscious eyes

Unable to stop Unable to stop This is what we call progress Lands ground to ashes Ruled with no conscience Black are the hands draining the blood Black into gold, riches from mud Spread the sickness Spread the swarm Blind eyes always reaching for more Salify Terrorize A plague! Unseeing A plague! Relentless A plague! Unfeeling In chains We are kneeling
11.
There is a graveyard east of the city Where men rest easy in vane of his pity Those who should wander sit blind in the light Seeking forgiveness for leading their lives Make your vows, drown the noise Turn the page, burn the rest Make your vows, drown the noise Turn the page, burn the rest Pray for remission of all your desires Give up your soul before you expire To whom do you believe your body belongs The ghost in the mirror or the cross in your palms I've seen this city, opened my eyes And this I won't compromise Clasped hands won't hold the truth These words that you cling to Nails through your hands Bit by the serpent Live for the clergy Die for the sermon
