Cryptic Slaughter
Album • 1990
Born too soon and dead the same Is this the way we all have paved? A path to walk and nothing more A fleeting glimpse and through the door Life can be a cruel jest The more you change you're like the rest Try to run but only crawl Break away into the all Vision weak Future bleak Backs are breaking In this stink Work to live But you don't Want to get out You won't They always push - you back down You've had enough - still no sound When will you wake - rise from the grave Or be a slave - for another day - For another day - For another day - For another day Blind to sight deaf to sound Change is coming look around Blind to sight deaf to sound Face the change stand your ground Born too soon Born too soon Born too soon And dead the same

Uneasy feelings Which way to turn Lost in the maelstrom Starting to burn Madness surrounds toy when caught up with Minds so confused And so I sit Pitcher in hand And so I fill This glass that stands Chaos controlling with minds that are robbed Of their wills Children of the earth See not their worth - Wasting their lives In vain, in pain - It is no surprise Stillborn again Another cig I slump my head This here soul Mistaken dead Maybe tomorrow we'll all find a way to escape

Thoughts of war, complete destruction plaguing My brain Desperation of a world, when will it change The need for peace the need for something to Give me hope Cause this planet soon will reach the end of its Rope Governmental bureaucratic assholes tell me that All is well They also tell me that to have peace, stockpiles Must swell It seems to be though that their logic somehow Just doesn't work They must take us for jerks Insanity by the numbers Pushing till we break It's insanity by the numbers How much more will we take We always sit and let them push us around This is democracy let's stand our ground For death is certain and life is not Don't waste the time we got The final countdown's slowly ticking away On a clock that's gonna fucking blow us away We're fighting for our very lies Do we die or survive Funny how we've seen its power yet we still build Wasn't Hiroshima enough, 92,000 dead But still this insanity keeps on dragging me down What is this fascination they have with zero ground It's insanity

Fear! A fear that is learned - Somebody told you Hear! What I have to say - Or must I show you We're! All in it together - So don't believe the lies You're! Gonna make a difference - But only if you try Round and round We keep going On a train No sign of slowing But I tell you it's Got to slop Beat a dead horse Till we drop Man! We all are the same - There is no difference Can't! We ever be one - And see beyond the skin Race! Is something to win - But we keep losing ground Peace! Before it's too late - I want to hear the sound A slight of hand a twisted mind The touch of hate has made you blind Fight in the streets can't get no sleep Pushing and shoving we're in too deep

Gleaming castles built on bones There's people dieing don't you know? You never give you only know how to take They beg for bread but you say let them eat cake! Deathstyles of the poor & lowly Brought to you by the rich & greedy Doomed to a life of existence at best But all you say is fuck the needy! You know I need to know why? Why they have to die? Please tell me, why! Modern condo is your sign of class Looking down on the lower mass You're always living like a king But no, you never share a thing! You hoard and hoard but never use a drop No, it sits in warehouses to rot and rot The poor stand hungry but you pass them by You know I need, I need to know why? Deathstyles of the poor & lowly Brought to you by the rich & greedy Reality check: life's not like TV The world's filled with the poor & the needy You know I need to know why? Why they have to die? Please tell me why?

Driving fast of taking a blast Living in a life that just won't last Jump from a cliff or jump in a pit Choosing the way your life will pass Speed is obsessing Shift into high Burning so brightly Raging to die Who are you? Can you still see? Hating your life Trying to be Someone you're not What do you want? Open your eyes See what you've got Fanatics of god Fanatics of sports Everyone is a Fanatic of sorts Lives in excess Lives that regress Degenerated Are the lives we love best

Printed word of a divided mind What you read here is just a lie What you see here you won't find Start looking for answers in your mind In your mind, in your mind Start looking for answers in your mind In your mind Keep waving your crosses while you lie in wait Keep pleading your causes while you sow your hate You want control so you deceive With knowledge withheld We recede! Unceasing questions of wondering minds You try to crush them to see what's inside You see the danger, we call it change I see the end of your lies and our chains In my mind, in my mind I see the end of your lies and our chains In your mind

Look around What's going on? Hatred & fear Violence & anger mounting daily People running, afraid of the dark Put down Talked at Spit on I've had enough Shut up I'll fucking kill you Stand up Slapped down Ripped off What are you going to do? I'm sick of hearing that There is nothing we can do I'm sick of hearing nothing Ever change What we change changes What we do gets done The time seems like forever till You're there, then it's done We are running out of time The problems of this world Are not going to go away The problems of this world Are not going to go away The time to make the change is now

Pressures press Your station set Cut your groove In the bench Release control It's for the best Decrease your will I'll do the rest Reality is just a word It's meaning so obscured A tried and tested thing of which I just can't be sure! People laughing Cause people died They had it coming And so they fried A mockery Of faceless men The justification Of their end Get ahead then you're dead - I guess I'll get behind Search like mad but you've been had - There's nothing there to find Cause reality and sanity - Are just a state of mind The clock stops The floor drops From far away You see yourself Faces flash Darkness comes Now betrayed Now undone
