Slaves to the Greed
Wasted a life for the days to come Forget or to devote There was so much to be said and done And now you're the scapegoat Sacrificed everything Distracted by the suffering Too many times and for so many years You've bled for the greater good (Nothing is enough - it's true) With the lies of your biggest fears You should run if you only could (Forced to give it up for you) Now it is time to open your eyes Fall to the ground Do not make a sound Take a look around Rise up and you will fall to the ground Do not make a sound Take a look around You are on your own Nothing is enough - it's true Forced to give it up for you Sacrificed everything Distracted by the suffering See through the echoes of the future and past You're blinded forevermore (Nothing is enough - it's true) The deafening silence will last On your knees you will beg for war Now it is time to open your eyes Controlled by faith - one way to feel Destroyed by love - no time to heal Consumed by hate - one chance to fight Burnt out by all - no hope tonight

Rooted so deep underground Hiding here made us feel so safe all around Nothing remains the same (evolution) We are the ones to blame (resolution) Nothing can change the fact (execution) Now it's the time to act What if we never learn Next time could be our turn (could be our turn) What if we'll never know When is the time to go (to go away) Guarded too well by the void Good enough to slowly turn us paranoid Too late - we can't return (regression) This world is doomed to burn (retribution) Our fate is not to thrive (contribution) Only to stay alive
Surrounded / Worthless Drowning in shame Defeated / Broken Buried in pain Shattered / Rotten Stained in disgrace Fragments of the innocent scattered all over Hated / Hunted Ready to dive Wounded / Bleeding Barely alive Forgotten / Banished Rejected from life Fragments of the innocent scattered all over Hear this voice of mine taking you out of line Violence, lust and greed - They're all you'll ever see See these hands of mine backstab you one more time Bloodshed, war and hate - They're here to steal your faith Exhausted / Starving Weakened by time Hollow / Empty Victim of crime Wasted / Useless Burnt to the ground Fragments of the innocent scattered all over

This is the prophecy: Our dreams and hopes denied – Our fates now redesigned Our freedom too confined – Total control of mind The frontline of doom is about to land The decadence of our world is close at hand Caugth in a war, we can not win Surrounds us all and takes you in How can we fight this state we're in Maybe we need something to change within Breath, keep moving Hope for the best, wait for tomorrow Give up (now) – Lay down and hide Expect the worst: Messenger of sorrow This is the prophecy: Our tears and love despised – Our fears now amplified Our sorrow too refined – Now will the stars allign How can we accept this state of mind They're guiding our way as if we're blind Locked in these chains we can not brake The decision is your's not our's to make How can we fight this state we're in Maybe we need something to change within Ring-a-round the rosie A pocket full of posies Ashes! Ashes! We all fall down

One day in November We embraced the endless night Darkness fell and ate the light (The situation is a lot worse that we expected...) (I think we need some drastic measures...) No bright tomorrow Just pain and sorrow This is a burden I can bear no longer Our lives are wasted Reasons for hatred is all we are Do you to remember We once saw the morning sun No one knew it had begun (Violence, abuses and poverty are leading people to look for new lives elsewhere....) (The conflict continues...)

This track is instrumental.
Demons driven by greed for power With lies we're ready to strike and devour Never learn that in return We fall, we burn, we suffer together Screaming back to hell Into the scorching flames That's where we're going to No matter what you try to do Screaming back to hell Right through the burning frames That's where we do belong No matter what you're longing for Creatures possessed by hatred for life In time we'll see the results and the size In the end we are condemned We fall, we burn, we suffer together Every day is like a blank page A miserable life in a filthy cage Repeating questions ask me why Life is a bitch and then you die All this frustration I am the one can to solve this strife My desperation Vengeange and justice both will be done
I am the path that will lead you astray I am the snake that will keep you away Another tempting whisper in your ear I bring to life everything that you fear Invitation / Revelation Feel the chill run up your spine Confrontation / Degradation Seal the deal of new blood line Just another nightmare Five thousand voices screaming in your head One after another blessed by this darkness Calling out your name I am the poison running through your vein I am the shock that will shut down your brain Another shadow to make you disappear I bring to life everything that you fear I'm incomplete Invitation / Revelation Confrontation / Degradation

Flame of a life is burning down so low My every breath and vain are cold as snow You cannot take my life and just fade away I take it back and force you to pay Keep turning away Don't ever look back This cruel life is darker than the night Your sun is dead shadows lost their light Endless nightmare can't let you wake Few more minutes and your soul will break I'm walking my way down How deep could this go Look in to my eyes what can you see It's the devil inside me Deep down inside of me there is something about to break free I'm a false messiah - I've come to cause you pain Some day you will learn not to trust me or you’re going to burn I'm a false messiah - Embrace me once again On this dead end road make your last call It's not just me, together we shall fall I take your hand and I hold my breath The last lethal kiss - Rest in death You've distorted our minds With your tainted thoughts Look in to my eyes what can you see It's the devil inside me
