The Art of Dying

Led to the slaughter by those who were there to protect Nailed to the cross, then put on display to dissect Dignity stripped like flesh being ripped from the bone Sentence: death by mongrels to which you are thrown Here comes the pack Come to attack Blood in their eyes No compromise Thrown to the wolves Left there to die Hiding from shadows that chase by the light of the moon Choking on lies overflowing in silver spoons Told of cities of gold and a thousand delights Fed to the dogs that hunt in the dead of the night Here comes the pack Come to attack Blood in their eyes No compromise Thrown to the wolves Left there to die Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves As the brother shall deliver up the brother to death Beg for a life that is worth not a dime to their kind Pleading for mercy from those that would leave you behind Betrayed with a kiss by the blackened soul you will save Burned at the stake so the jackals can piss on your grave Here comes the pack Come to attack Blood in their eyes No compromise Thrown to the wolves Left there to die

Grip the bars that hold my mind And pace the cell that's stuck in time Immune to change and far from love I curse this world and God above Life is a cage when you're framed and confined Sentence of pain 25 to life I breathe in the sky as I recall the past And realize these are my last Need to kill this painful lie Look over shoulder with my hand on knife I can't keep living my life this way I'll do my time but I won't behave The road to hell is paved with good intent Pass barbed wire and cyclone fence Destiny lies far from this place A cemetery plot my final resting place Got to break this soulless cage Return my life to human shape A hell on earth is what they say Kill or be killed same shit different day

Master of disguise move unseen Shadow on the night silent hunter Appetite arroused by the smell of your fear Driven by desire instinct and hunger And I will survive while you die In your slow demise mercy denied Bitter is the taste of your last breath Choking on a bite from the apple of eden Victim of my lies deceit and betrayal Shed my skin steal your soul Again and again from the birth of time Steal your soul shed my skin Over and over until the end of time Look into the eyes of fate Destiny you can't escape Precious life that you now chase Slips away as you're erased Seasons come and seasons go What will come you'll never know Future is a mystery For this lock there is no key So you pray but I say it's too late Running from the hands of doom Crawling back into the womb Look of horror on your face Feeble human wasting space Time has come to say goodbye Live a life lived in a lie Your tomorrow is now gone The devil incarnate lives on

Turning knot rotting in my gut Got me feeling so corrupt Like a second hand politician I'm a study in malnutrition Every star I see I'm wishing Got a deathbed at 12th and mission New kind of... Long ago once upon a time Hundred miles an hour time flew by Now gravestones become friends Practice voodoo superstition Like an archangel from heaven Got a deathbed at 12th and mission In need of sleep we crawl the street American dream gone Blood dirt money hustle and scheme Can barely breathe gone Mentally unfed Spiritually dead The flock's been misled New kind of wicked Turning knot rotting in my gut Got me feeling so corrupt Stomach's screaming deep inside Another day got no place to hide

Raise your hands to the sky On your knees and abide Don't stare into the sun The new saviours have come And you choose your wine Like you choose your friends And you base your life On each passing trend And I say No to false claims No to their aims No to all of their rules We've come to save your soul We must regain control It's the end of their reign Our day has come again You've been blown off course We've come to take you north In the eye of the storm History's been reborn We've been sent back Surprise attack

Dream awake eyes open wide Drain the poison kill the lie Life is now there is no end Never know what might have been Spirit never fade away I can never forget that day Beyond the grave Spirit never fade away Things that you fear the most The same damn things you hold close Try hard as steel till nothing's left It'll come when you least expect In your mind suspended in time Different lives different times Worlds collide memory blinds Peace is hard to find Spirit or ghost Have I lost my mind Hope is alive Carry us through time

You live in your private hell Don't know if you're sick or well Something out there calls your name Too insecure to enter the game Life to you is a magazine All dreams are on a silver screen You never want to grow Seeds of hate are all that you sow Land of blood fields of greed So many choices broken dreams Anything can happen and always does Can you adapt when the going gets rough Gold rays of sun sea of blue Hide the pain that you're going through You can never aspire When inside lives the heart of a liar

All's quite now on the western front But you never know what's above you Chances are when you're down and tired It's a lack of what you need inside you So they say if you play their game Well you'll never have much to lose It's the life they chose and if you're one of those Well you'll never have much to prove Looking up Looking out Reaching in Let it out So you claim that you're not the same It's just a dead end old part of town Why pan for gold when the water's cold You might as well lay face down and drown Then you play their game yet you cry for change And you always seem to miss your turn You let them make tour bed rest your weary head On a mattress that's been set to burn That will never be me I will always be free Raise your heads Open eyes Smash down walls See the lies

Words are spoken from the book of the dead Written in the blood of the ones who bled Foretelling the story of our destiny Shadow on the fate of humanity The tyrants of the earth have made their plans But the future of the world is in our hands The ending of a war that would never end Created by the kings of the kingdoms of man The unification of the human race at last Brothers and sisters come together forgive the past Deep in your heart and your soul lies the key Step through the door to a world where people are free If hopelessness is what you see it's what you'll get Believe in today because the fight isn't over yet Our sons and our daughters will live if we never say die Shame when the ones who have wings don't use them to fly... There's hope for the world today I know Believe that it's not too late for love
