I Dwell on Thoughts of You
Who are you now? I can't see past the mask You wear a smile Who are you now? Your face shines like the sun But your hate has life of its own Who are you now? Impure from the onset You desire to destroy Who are you now? You sow the seeds of dissent In the name of free speech The only love you know Is for yourself Your opinions change with the seasons as do your beliefs With a smile you twist the blade Your words are bitter They bring no relief Your ego knows no bounds If only you knew You can say so much with your silence Contain your thoughts Open your mind Shut your mouth you weapon of discourse Let this be the lesson learned That there is another way Let this be the lesson learned That there is another way I will never tolerate your endless lies Why do you choose to haunt me? I will never tolerate your endless lies Your foolish words fall on deaf ears I will never tolerate your endless lies You will fall face first On the platform you adore You use the weak To expound your shallow views You have nothing left to say You are less than nothing Who are you now? I can't see past the mask You wear a smile That shines like the sun Who are you now? Who are you now?

My own hand Was the instrument Destruction was imminent The pain of sorrow was too much to bear I walked away and you never said a word Punishment enough I hang my head I cannot look you in the eye Coming chaos engulfs me There was no warning It is never too late To start a new Breaking the crutch of the passive nature I will seize salvation That has eluded my grasp Had I only listened I was in earshot Whispering, shouting your ancient wisdom My mind changes with every breath I cannot deny this burning sensation that comes with understanding Do now pass me by that was never your way

After all this time After all this time knowledge I've gained can be put to use My consumption of truth Beckons me to the everlasting I now speak and accept Responsibility For my actions A lifetime of this struggle Results in the immortal Your words will live forever In me you will never die Rip through the fabric of birth My existence Has always been known And I intend to benefit From the words Written in stone I must not be silenced When I am vocal you are immortal I must not be silenced Your words will live forever You will never die

A malignant blackness Invades the light You seek sanctuary But nothing's changed In the midst of conflict You are paralyzed Opposition face to face Don't beg for mercy It is to no avail Led to the slaughter Like a sacrificial lamb I dwell on thoughts of you Where did I go wrong? Every consideration made swept away like the tide Dig into the mud if you must Find a foothold Truth is a cancer to the heretic Crush his rhetoric Death to the ways of the degenerate Lost soul confiscate Purify Look at yourself And expel the waste View obstruction Unattainable goal Strength alone is hollow Wisdom's invitation Destroy the carnal Hostility becomes a trademark to any obstacle in your path

A steady flow of bane runs through my blood And infection, boiling, seething causing a stench to my thoughts Those around me Mindless, spineless, weak, fear ridden Worthy of a fir of anger Never seen before Their thoughts should be destroyed Fire consuming Burning the flesh Cleansing this world of its inequality The sense and value lost Trodden upon Tear, tear, tear I will not hold back anymore I will not fall victim to a system that holds down the truth A fine oiled machine which deserves to rust and die All to often I wake and realize my efforts are in vain Nothing changes People follow the followers to the grave I want to tear my heart out and shove it down their backbiting throats and let them taste honor Let it run through their veins Like acid Burning a mark of who I really am Someday they will wake Someday they will see And someday they will understand

Tearing flesh Searing wounds of despair Open for a lifetime A scarred existence never truly finding peace A lost world breeding predators who hunt out of insecurity The pain of countless souls goes unanswered Our response is void Where were we then? We should stop this cycle But we nurture its growth Tears flow and flow Our reactions fall incredibly short from the needed action At some point we will have gone too far We do not own one another We must begin to nurture respect At some point we must accept responsibility I did not forget you in your pain I still love you I was there when you cried for help I did not close my eyes Love at the cost of hate is what we have paid The fear of desolation bringing the chance for new life We should weep for you But where are the tears? We should fight for you But where is our cry? We should punish the iniquity forced upon you But we close our eyes and our hearts We are responsible for your blood We are responsible for your tears We are responsible for your pain We must accept it We must accept This generation will pay for the blood that has been shed Judgment

For the birth Shallow and inferior Thoughts and actions Descendants of Adam's curse Destiny Plays its hand Sowing the seeds of Baal Incubus Ever deaf To the judgment Seventy years of self indulgence The soul mourns The lust of the flesh consumes the eyes Gateway of the beast The pride of life Ascension of the body The beloved has fallen to the wayside Brush aside sacrifice of life Gorge on the blackness Slacking the thirst on the innocent Swallow and laugh it hastens The apocalypse Moments pass considering the torn veil The heart lies The tongue deceives Man brandishes the weapon thorn in the side of salvation With aggression desecration fills the air There will be a reckoning All is well The soul of man is at ease Peace for a day A thousand years running to the water Time stands still Burn A chill follows The blood runs cold The smell of sulfur Wrath Fall and confess Murderer, deceiver You will die Whoremonger You will die Man of perdition You will die For all these things You will die
