Mechanical compound eye Imposed observance. Sentries in the sky Vigilant lenses. Objectives belied In blackened heavens covertly they hide They see you. They see all. They know all indiscretions Compiler of your dreams, your indignations Following your every single move They see you All-seeing instrument. Supreme perception Omnifocal accumulator Thief of integrity. Its gaze upon the blind Information divinity by man designed The lives of all they occupy. Their eyes in dismal gloom The all-piercing, dead oculi - mirrors of our doom Oblivious to the trespass as you gaze into the black The demon of surveillance insultingly staring back - Into you They own your every secret, your life is in their files The grains of your every waking second sifted through and scrutinized They know your every right. They know your every wrong Each put in their due compartment - sins where sins belong They know you. They see all. They know all indiscretions Compiler of your dreams, your indignations Following your every single move They know you.

Strive, Strive. Surmount the obstacles Become the essence of your goals. Hereditary dream Pray that may you attain that destiny. Fall into the coveted line Where life is but a theme of pretense in lustrous guise Claims and values. Charts of means and status Plaques to show your strife. Do your neighbor clones approve Picture perfect illustration - Imitation of life Where the path is evened out. All obstructions removed Great viable citizen Are you happy now? Then praise your god and bow Shimmering surface. The gleam of blinding lies Become the product, the thing you so desire To what length would you go to reach your goals What mantra will you use to justify your means Who will you betray to secure your dream What sins will you commit to avoid your sins be seen Do not look down. Do not look down Or the abysmal beast of nonconformity Might stare some unpleasant truth Into your desensitized mind Shimmering surface. The gleam of blinding lies Become the product, the thing you so desire

Carelessly you sentence. How indifferently you kill The prophecies of mans corruption fulfilled Arbitrarily you harm. Snap your fingers, cue demise Murder on impulse. Your evil inclinations wrapped in lies Divine man. Appointed. Claiming the stern voice of god Absolute judgments passed from where you cowards hide - The lair of snakes. Your dark haven Where you and your ophidian partisans abide The doctrine of your unholy trinity - The violence, the spite and the enslavement You awesome monarch, you man of dominance All shall be as you decide Illustrious ruler of all things Wield your razors, cut the flesh of man Control, govern and lead us Into the nightmare of your wishes fulfilled Grab the reins, you awesome puppeteer, you conductor of chains Redeemer. Unbreakable strings. Damnation leashes Remote cords extend, the trusses they run They stretch all the way behind the sun So vain our attempts, the useless tugging This meaningless gnawing at restraints by which we're bound Hail the tyrant saint, the great bereaver You will bow before the emperor crowned.

End this debate. No need to dream of solace I'll be your truth in this game that is life Your will withering away Among the comatose but insight's not your fate Minds align to fire the sequence You will feel the knife as it turns Taste visions of ruin and thirst Make for save haven but I will find you first Capitulate, you know this fight is over Spiritual flesh, my stomach starts to churn A perfected mindjack. Confirmed illusion Euphoric state. You gag, you choke Words, virus. They echo in your ears True bliss through bondage and oh here come the tears I find my joy in fear A soul cadaver I'm the hurt that finds you first Capitulate Hide, you'll be mine either way Grind my teachings on the soulless In a sense, devastation's structure bleeding through my sermon The repose of true angels paves my way to power Parasite a state of which you'll be proud Under my soothing shroud Innocence? This systems roaring howl Deafens all reason Questions reduced to silence.

Lasciviously they move Two powers bound for unity Like magnets, they align, under immunity The product of their congress, their libidinous deed Insatiable mouth of conflict and greed Beware the soon to be born bringer of pain One evil by another inseminated Pure hatred conceived The pairing of blood and power A spawn of harm produced Death and profit begotten, fused A ghost-producing offspring. Immorality's embodiment Spite and Disgust incarnate. A progeny insane Tar-black ejaculate The seminal bile of conspiracy - The blood of those who died Their innocence, their marrow The pursuit of ruin. Murderous ambition Bloodshed, the careless taking of lives A conduct symbolic of its condition Behold the newborn monstrosity Descendant of avarice Indifferent war machine in all its violent glory A callous iron god born to reign Tar-black ejaculate The seminal bile of conspiracy -The blood of those who died Their innocence, their marrow.

Tremors, reverberating frequency of doom How strongly the violent thoughts of vengeance echo Setting in motion the strings of hate. Shudder, shudder, vibrate This is the soundtrack to our hostility, to a malicious intent, to the pointless grudge forever held The callow dream, the dismal wish to harm Animate now the twisted sounds of our disdain, our rage The notations to our contempt, to unforgiveness and loathing A sonic declaration of spite and resentment Its resonance grinding to dust our souls The twine of revenge tightly strung Its subharmonics the undoing of all So enticing the retaliation-chords of man The all-deafening oscillation of the damned Let forth the hateful, the murderous Let their malignant prayers resound The reverbant, odious request. The wish of death abound So enticing the retaliation-chords of man The all-deafening oscillation of the damned

Insectine man, carnivore. The shape of us, the conduct of flies All-consuming swarm in inconspicuous disguise Bloodseeking, parasitic. Ecstatically tracing decay Thriving in the glow that death emits, the warm perfume it radiates Revolting conformity. Hive mind unity Excitedly their mandibles grind, aroused by vile ambition At the sickly sweet promise of decomposition Deliriously ingesting. Liquefied ruin absorbed Innocence devoured by the elated horde They are us, let's not even pretend Aroused and frenzied they scurry, encircling death A vile swarm awaiting the final breath Myriad eyes visualizing the end Blackened skies. Rabid heavens descend On the bereft, unforgivingly Precious life debased. Our dipteran legacy embraced Crack the shell. Ascend the sky Rise, extend your palpitating wings Crack the shell. Ascend the sky Fly you disgraceful wretched things

Writing and embraced Retribution. Soul eclipse turns solid Energized. Sucking vomit acting like its honey Deprived of I Falling while thrusting squares through circles Serving one single new dimension Terror rising. Agnostics nemesis. A prophet of extinction I scorch the skies before your very eyes My deliverance - enslavement labelled: love Just trust this nemesis to sign and seal extinction.
