Spearhead

Spearhead marching onward Take my soul sacrificial offering Your initial strike taken by surprise Now left alone, condemned by my pride Drained of all emotion - body now an empty shell There's nothing left - you've taken all away Adrenaline flows Now filled with anger Just what will be the outcome Mass confusion, tears my mind Spearhead - No victory sublime Another fallen victim - I will not beg to you Spearhead - to which I cannot hold With clear perception my destiny unfolds I look to the reflection, fail to recognise what's seen A figure clothed in hatred, I pray that this cannot be Faced by this total stranger – aware of your creation No vision of the former self Controlled by your instruction Onward you advance, left in a mindless trance Hypnotised by you will, desire is now instilled Now staring face to face, your eyes filled with hate Held by your contempt, both by weakness and by strength Adrenaline flows Now filled with anger Just what will be the outcome Mass confusion, tears my mind

Rising - From mundane existence A new world - Seen through your eyes To deception - Give no resistance All your hopes and dreams are now sanctified Blind to the hypocrisy Goodness is all that you see Your past life - Is cast aside In false truths - You now confide Pledged to a life of divinity Superior through your own piety Holier than thou - Alone you wear the crown In your private asylum Look to what you have become Condemned to misery and strive Alone you wear the crown of life The crown of life The crown of life

Fallen are the people of the decaying race Now proclaim the legacy inherited too late Too late Mankind - The dying creed, reared on ignorance and greed On suffering we feed devouring all beyond our needs A path of self-destruction they cannot see Regarding their only interest in profitability They cannot see Open up your mind before it's too late Unlock the chains of confinement that we create Grasping all you can - Overloaded capacity Nothing can conceal instinctive rapacity A movement to disaster could this be the final plan Blinded by our avarice the closing chapter Extinction of man Mankind - The dying creed, reared on ignorance and greed On suffering we feed devouring all beyond our needs

The time has come to leave this place - Never to return Nothing's left but ashes - My body now is spurned Your sorrow will subside in time - My one, true, only friend There is one thing we can do - To avert this bitter end Up amongst the stars I dwell - Tranquillity is found I look upon the earth - To which all human life is bound Alone I wander aimlessly - For now my spirit's free My soul exists within you as I guide your destiny The tears of grief you weep for me - Through uncontrolled emotion You have given me your all - A life time of devotion So come my friend take my hand - Together we shall see The pathways through the darkness - For all eternity Eternity
