Aftermath 04:15
Aftermath Mighty titans clash Turning dawn into night time ash Life's Summer bliss Now dead Winter cold A flash of light brings everlasting night Skyscraper skeletons - death by thirty megatons Warhead - You're dead The price for peace is eternal vigilance No voices left to shout the battle cry Rest in peace Vaporized in the blink of an eye Push of a button the planet Earth dies A shadow of humanity's legacy Earth's death by man's brutality Mankind's worldwide epitaph Are silhouettes on brick walls
2.
Desensitized 02:54
Desensitized The soulless faceless TV screen Fills my mind with what I crave A front row seat to a madman world A dying world with one foot in the grave Static news bytes Are what I hunger for How many killed today Who started another war Through desensitized eyes Feeds a desensitized mind With still sedation the damage is done Gray matter brain cells killed off one by one The nature of mankind To feed upon itself When it's all over There will be nothing left Fill up this mind I've seen it before Shock value fading Bring on some more
3.
Living Hell 03:17
Living Hell When darkness fills the sky Mankind's eyes don't see the light Your life is lost to the dead Your soul is an empty husk I look at the faces of the damned I can't live in this living hell I stare into the eyes of the lost I can't live in this hell on Earth Angels fall from grace Down to this forsaken place To the living and the damned This place is living death I look at the faces of the damned I can't live in this living hell I stare into the eyes of the lost I can't live in this hell on Earth
4.
Hardware 03:59
Hardware Part man and part machine Biotechnology Man of flesh and bone and steel Cybertechnology Execute the master plan Annihilate the species: man Mark-13 will cleanse the land Jack-In now the future is at hand Flick of the wrist Crack of the neck Weak human beings Obsolete by the best Hard wired the flesh is tired Wire head the flesh is dead Once man is now machine The flesh is weak and obsolete Men of mesh and chrome and steel Death to flesh long live the steel Got the world in a death grip No flesh shall be spared Clench the fist, watch the blood drip No flesh shall be spared Flick of the wrist Crack of the neck Weak human beings Obsolete by the best Hard wired the flesh is tired Wire head the flesh is dead
5.
Why? 03:53
WHY So much potential is cancelled by ignorance So many truths are blinded by faith Who is divine? Who's got the answer? How did we get here And why should we care? Everything happens but what is the reason? Events are linked to what end? A stepping stone Or a grave stone Divine intervention Or a matter of chance? This fleeting life is passing by Blackness falling Still have no answer to the question why Death is calling Curiosity of life's demise Blackness falling Just give me the answer to the question: WHY? Death is calling
6.
Hardcore 03:08
Hardcore Kick to the teeth Bullet in the head Take out the trash Bring out your dead Tears through your flesh Between the eyes Cuts to the bone The end of your life Tooth for a tooth Eye for an eye Truth for a truth Lie for a lie Petal to the metal Full speed ahead No looking back No regrets Spits in your face Goes for the throat Tears off your head Shits down your neck Tooth for a tooth Eye for an eye Truth for a truth Lie for a lie
7.
Warped 02:52
Warped Warped and distorted Tune in to tune out Take this brain of clay To sculpt what you want Take my conscience Twist my soul Warp my mind To take control Changing all the facts Filter what I see Twisting all the truth Force feed it to me
8.
Overload 02:50
Overload I've got this skull-splitting headache Suffocating in the flux Overbearing bombardment Over-stimulus collapse Too much to process Drowning in the sea Synaptic fireworks Bring you to your knees Eyes Glaze over Mouth is gaping Body Twitching Mind erasing Eyes roll back Body aching Chain reacting Body breaking Like a time bomb ticking Countdown commencing When the counter hits zero... There's going to be an Overload A mind-blowing overload Skull-splitting overload Mind-numbing overload Pressure building up You're going down You're heading for A neural breakdown The fuse is lit It's burning down Just a matter of time Until a full-core meltdown
9.
Flilpside of Reality Nothing can ease my pain Screams within eat me up The sound of my pulsing brain Lies of insanity start to erupt The fear grows and pulses through my veins Acts have been conceived I've done a heinous deed How it started I'll never know But in my mind it continues to grow Flipside of reality Nothing can stop my pain The screams of an endless torture All to start an evil reign I keep on trying to figure it out The sin that grows inside of me And for my life I take a bid So in prison I won't spend my days Now I know what I did The blur is an even haze I try to cope in my head As they try to crucify me Flipside of reality Nothing can stop my pain The screams of an endless torture All to start an evil reign Nothing can ease my pain
10.
Millennium 04:59
Millennium There comes a change on the horizon Yesterday is gone a new day is dawning Hear the birth cry of tomorrow Mankind cries out with its final breath Hear all the cries the sky is falling Doomsday prophet the end is near Look to the sky the angels are falling Armageddon time the end is here Enter the Millennium Turn of the century Birth of a new dawn Yesterday fades to a hell on earth Hellspawn rise With mother Earth’s rebirth All the rivers will turn to blood And the sun will scorch the earth It marks the death of day dawn of the dead Souls all scream as they turn in their graves Enter the Millennium Turn of the century Birth of a new dawn Yesterday fades to a hell on earth Hellspawn rise With mother Earth’s rebirth
11.
Circle 03:37
Circle Some people say that life is a circle And our paths will surely cross again Others say history repeats itself And we can learn from others mistakes I can see the pattern starting The circle of life is dawning On the next generation of temporal souls In this here today gone tomorrow time Our time is short on this world But we still keep our mortality With the ending coming near We keep our good cheer Being judged helps define our morality The end we are evading The circle of life is fading On the x-generation of temporary souls In this moment in time Like a ring More precious than gold A never ending cycle To eternity The experience of life Seems to have no point As we reflect we find the meaning The questions of youth Need our answers To help them through the struggle of life I can see the patterns endless The circle of life's complete Bring in the next generation of mislead souls They will learn from our mistakes A never ending cycle To eternity
12.
No Escape 03:24
No Escape I am there when you're asleep I am there when you're awake Soon you'll come to realize That there's no escape From your precious slumber To your unconscious state Gather your wits about you You'll need them when you wake Around every turn - No Escape In the safest place - No Escape There before you know - No Escape For you there's no escape - No Escape Dark fingers reach out to you Hands grasp for you to take Pull you ever downward To your pathetic fate In your futile absence No one can hear you scream No one to guide you To save you from yourself Around every turn - No Escape In the safest place - No Escape There before you know - No Escape For you there's no escape - No Escape
13.
Too Late 01:53
Too Late The four minute warning sounded three ago The bombs are coming and now they're going to blow The fire in the sky means the end is near We're sending ours off so you'd better stand clear Too late to run and hide Too late its genocide Too late the Earth is fried Too late you're going to die Thirty seconds to impact and then you're going to know There is no hope when the planet starts to glow Radiation poisoning is in the air we breathe When everybody's gone there will be no time to grieve Too late to run and hide Too late its genocide Too late the Earth is fried Too late you're going to die Only ten seconds remains of your life Say goodbye to your family, friends and wife There's no way to stop it you've waited too long But you've always known that the bombs are fucking wrong Too late to run and hide Too late its genocide Too late the Earth is fried Too late it's fucking goodbye It's too fucking late
14.
Escape the Blackness Crawling through the sand Fingernails to pull myself ahead Must I escape or must I lose Now the contest is over and now so am I The black rain has started falling The moon and stars have gone away The Earth is blanketed in a black cloud Why the fuck did we ever let this happen There's nothing nothing nothing anymore SDI really didn't help at all Every country has now been destroyed While politicians are living underground
15.
Here Today, Gone Tomorrow Building arms to keep the peace Population in decrease See the silos all around It's time to start living underground I don't think I want to see What life after the bomb will be After the flash there's no decay It's all tax free, nothing to pay Here today gone tomorrow All this nations death and sorrow Progress caused this disgrace Wiping out the human race Who are they to play with life We all live at the end of their knife No authority, no control When war breaks out the Earth's going to blow The position of God is already filled But they have the power to get us killed Our existence is such a shame But we have no one else to blame Here today gone tomorrow All this nations death and sorrow Progress caused this disgrace Wiping out the human race
