Defiance
Album • 1992
They're mislead by authority And they're guinea pigs with dignity With everlasting memories Frozen thoughts and bloody dreams [Chorus:] Mesmerized Souls left behind In the killing fields That leave you blind In the war of conspiracy Young men fight for humanity When they're pawned off to the killing fields Smell the stench of misery [Repeat chorus] Politicians send them off to war Deep within the front line The only man who's taught to survive As desperation freezes time Innocent lives are wrongly put at stake Negotiate the fields of blood Out in the cold they're taught to survive Salvation runs in the blood Off to the fields of blood Into the fields of blood Off to the fields of blood Die in the fields of blood They're mislead by authority Soldiers die with dignity Survivors live with memories Broken thoughts and broken dreams [Repeat chorus]

Step back and listen to what I say Don't worry, put your trust in me What to believe when your head's overfilled with these lies The naked truth separates the people lost in time [Chorus:] As if There's nothing to do Reach back And pull your past through Step back and listen to what I say [Repeat chorus] What to believe when your head's overfilled with these lies The naked truth separates the people lost in time I see the future. I see your life I see you live your life on borrowed time You live for your own morals I do what I like 'cause this is my life I do as I please With no sacrifice Guess what ? Step back [Repeat first verse, chorus] Step back and listen to what I say Step back

Beyond recognition Release me from this grasp Another perfect nothing Memories of disrupt from my past It's a lie, I know not why A sin forever within The darkest side of my mind I feel it bring me Down to shelter Come again this life I feel I feel a pretense slowly taking over In time I seem to dwell and fade To a source beyond recognition I sleep through my nightmares Loneliness I must feel And when I cry for laughter My sorrows appeal So come back again this life I feel Numb against the pain that felt so real Time and time again I say I try to see Bring forth the light which is supposed to be So come again this life I feel Numb against the pain so real In desperate search of reason Curiosity rules my mind I'm drowning in confusion Perfect nothing I know not why Come again this life I feel Once again I feel a presence taking over In time I seem to dwell and fade To a source beyond recognition A sin forever within The darkest side of my mind I feel it bring me down to shelter It's a lie, I know not why

Day after day I turn the page another suicide Page after page Another death in the back of my mind Why must it be this way at all Why can't we live our lives I'd hate to be one of the many No compromise [Chorus:] Placed for all to see Who used to be Family's left with nothing But a faint memory Day after day I turn the page another child dies Sin after sin Another reason for a human sacrifice Why must it be that way at all Why can't we live our Iives I'd hate to be one of the many No compromise [Repeat chorus] [Bridge:] See my eves I don't find time To look at the price we pay Easy come and easy go Look at the life time cycle Yeah, the people time forgot [Repeat first verse, chorus] You, you know the choice you make Who, who's next in line to pay [Chorus:] Who used to be Now a faint memory You see it on TV The people pass away Family's left with nothing But a faint memory

You say one thing and do another Heard the same thing a thousand times Merry go round in reverse going nowhere We'll never know what's becoming of you [Chorus:] Dead silence What now, who's got the last laugh Dead silence You play your games, you've gone insane We never know what you want to be Day after day live live your life Wishing you were just like me Dead silence What now, who's got the last laugh Dead silence You think you see but You can't see what's in my mind Time turns around you still Can't seem to realize Sometimes I feel no sorrow Sometimes I feel no pain Say what you will, my last laugh Say what you will while I laugh [X2] Time goes by but you never change You're always hearing the same thing day after day In your mind still you wish to be Image of hatred, trying to be like me Sometimes I feel no sorrow Sometimes I feel no pain You live your life for tomorrow Yeah that's right, I live mine for today... [Repeat first verse, chorus, second verse] Who's got the last laugh INSIDE

Inside looking out Can you believe what you see The unpleasant sight For a place with so much greed Infectious destiny I find it hard to make my stand Made to reality - conformed society [Chorus:] Inside looking out Seems so never ending Inside looking out Seems so never ending Inside looking out What can you see Beyond without doubt - What to believe What to believe When all reality lost its mind What to conceive Dealing with the people when the problems Don't fade away And you find yourself dreaming for... Dreaming for another day Inside looking out Can you believe what you see The unpleasant sight For a place with so much greed Infectious destiny I find it hard to make my stand I see no way out [Repeat chorus]

Into optic illusions Try to foresee what is to be made&Chosen I may be the one Chosen I just might be the one to live I never heard a word they said But now I see the light shining Through eyes It leaves me pacified Illusions leave me blind Black is all I see Formed is a twisted image That was chosen for me I never questioned why I never saw a reason for suicide Or planned to take my life The will to live my mind sets free Into the vast of misery Tomorrow seems so far away Illusions of conspiracy My conscience is my only friend Learn to live my life in peace The chosen, I may be the one To live my life and be set free

Freakshow in the streets Take over what they please One word we thought was safe Too late, the crime was made We the people, where do we stand Is there a way to resolve The power trip in this land [Chorus:] The power trip in this land The power trip which we see The power trip that we fear The power trip... Don't put a price on reality Can't put a price on poverty Don't put a pine on humanity You know I doubt your morality [Repeat chorus] So why must we fight Scared for this life See the man deprived of freedom As he's stripped of his life So why must we die Snipped of his life See a man deprived of freedom As he begs for his life [Repeat chorus] Don't put a price on reality Can't put a price on poverty Don't put a price on humanity You know I doubt your integrity Die with dignity

This is the real thing There's no reality Is there a promised afterlife to seek Wandering endlessly Drift on through the time If you're heading for disaster You're bound to see the light Is there a new way To live and die Is there a future or afterlife I've tried to see through But to die is to die I've tried to see through times The promised afterlife I've tried to see through times The promised afterlife [X2] [Repeat first verse] Wandering endlessly Drift on through the time If the end is to be over Should we pray to see the light So try to see through time See my eyes There is no promised afterlife [X2] Is there a new way To live and die Is there a future or afterlife I've tried to see through But to die is to die
