Engineering the Apocalypse

Obey the sirens song Orchestrating our demise Now it's too late Cometh my way This is our stage The end our act We had it all We had it all Through our greed we threw away Together stand, let bedlam reign United Make it fail

All of this time it has taken to see Within the darkness a flame has ignited It burns, my mind A world turned to ashes; A purpose transcendent But now, I scribble these walls Caged from the world but my message is clear Repent, submit And turn on your brothers and sisters to make your soul clean Come all and be cast into the grave The call of humanity depraved The path to redemption lies in spite Scorched earth removes the parasite You can lock me away But to me you are blind And this prison won't stop what's in my mind An ominous preview Of a world that's torn in two A consequence of negligence Where society's progress subdued A sinister portrait The world asphyxiates I advocate, to set things straight I will engineer, eradicate Signs, which don't leave my head No doctor can cure me, they lock me away Inside this cell The symbols emerge, the shadows close in on my soul Oh why won't I die?! The voices won't listen, I've solved the enigma The seeds are sewn If this is our path then humanity needs to atone You can lock me away But to me you are blind And this prison won't stop what's in my mind An ominous preview Of a world that's torn in two A consequence of negligence Where society's progress subdued A sinister portrait The world asphyxiates I advocate, to set things straight I will engineer, eradicate

A Perfect Canvas to start again The chance to rise higher on broken terrain The dreams of our Eden no longer fulfilled So why wont you let me build? Why wont you let me build? I created foundations, laid out the plans A world of perfection A dawning of man Instead of rebuilding to learn from mistakes You refuse to acknowledge the problems we made And watch my empire grow with might This world will burn The past and future i will write This world is mine So hear these words (Hear these words) I can set you free from a broken world (Set me free) I am the key, and i see a chance to start again So hear these words (Hear these words) I can set you free from a broken world (Set me free) I am the key, and i see a chance to start again You've seen this all fall before us The structures left here to burn and rot The nerve that you dare to challenge An architect is something that you're not I've seen us break I've seen it burn I've seen the hoards of people turn The hour of need The countless pleas You showed your face of no concern This world of waste There's more to it My vision will change our lives As i transcend Your reign will end My doctrine will re-write the course of all So watch my empire fight with hate The order of power will turn Fall to your knees and meet your fate The future is mine to hold Today, today begins a change The chance to start anew A view to change our lives The start of something true Today, today begins a change The chance to start anew A view to change our lives The start of something true So hear these words (Hear these words) I can set you free from a broken world (Set me free) I am the key, and i see a chance to start again So hear these words (Hear these words) I can set you free from a broken world (Set me free) I am the key, and i see a chance to start again Set me free

It all started with a bad seed cast aside Thrown to the dirt and left to die But to all's surprise, somewhere in the filth there showed signs of life Now the roots have taken a hold and dug into foundations of all we know I've risen up, I've grown, eclipsing the sun with a new found halo With No perception of prospect, remain stale in the now With every crest that's conquered, reveals one twice as long An empire of obedience, uphill struggle on Kings will crawl with pawns, the higher slither with us all An empire of obedience, uphill struggle on Kings will crawl with pawns, the higher slither with us all Kings will crawl with pawns, the higher slither with us all With every crest that's conquered, reveals one twice as long An empire of obedience, uphill struggle on and on and on Be it power or wealth you hoard Shows little prominence when stripped to the bone Now choose to be part of the progress, or fall into the motion Rotten minds are left behind as guts in the wreckage of growth Now choose to be part of the progress, or fall into the motion Rotten minds are left behind as guts, as guts in the wreckage of growth Such value held in green and gold only to create the dust and the rust and the mould Treasures will erode with superficial thrones Castles will crumble and deliver you bare to the feet of us all The higher the walls, the more there is to fall With No perception of prospect, remain stale in the now Every crest that's conquered, reveals one twice as long Be it power or wealth you hoard Shows little prominence when stripped to the bone Now choose to be part of the progress, or fall into the motion Rotten minds are left behind as guts in the wreckage of growth Now choose to be part of the progress, or fall into the motion Rotten minds are left behind as guts in the wreckage of growth Now choose to be part of the progress, or fall into the motion Rotten minds are left behind as guts, as guts in the wreckage of growth

Our minds found to be tethered Burnt and ingrained by conviction A conviction forced to make Such vision and ideas We can come and unite as a one here Follow free thoughts and you'll see, see a land that could be Tortured, martyred for the wrong following A cult to bring us all as one, a new society We've grown fat on a feast of threat Stood, stared in ore as we're beckoned to bleed We follow rules Through fear are embedded in thee See future prevail through a path of pain Our minds found to be tethered Burnt and ingrained by conviction forced to make No longer brainwashed This is the true Don't be the wrong Follow the new Enriched trepidation will see the weak delude Martyr or follow suit at the feet of the few Light blackened out by the shadows cast by divine ones that stand so tall We bow our heads again, as a leader delivers a speech to all Unveiled False idols dissolve, just a system devised to allow us to cope, numb our miserable lives Fake fathers will tremble, as they claw at the roots of denial No longer brainwashed This is the true Don't be the wrong Follow the new Enriched trepidation will see the weak delude Martyr or follow suit at the feet of the few Light blackened out by the shadows cast by divine ones that stand so tall We bow our heads again, as a leader delivers a speech to all Accepting a future so dark, subject to visions leaving us so small Force fed with fear we stand in ranks out our, out our freedom bleeds Propaganda, mass hysteria, callous leaders force feeing us fear Propaganda, mass hysteria, callous leaders force feeing us fear

Heed Yield Bow Break Heed my calls, answer my name Yield your arms, never again Bow your head, submit to the throne Break the bones of all that you know Raise up your fists with your hearts filled with hate Never no longer shall witness dictate Our resolve is fuelled by the grasp Of embracing the darkness Of where we collapsed Onwards we charge Unburdened of guilt Souls in the storm Dragged into war Led to destroy What we have built Eyes pouring red Lusting for death Constant motion, flesh tears open The fear inside escapes me as I navigate the embers to the light The smoke will rise and take me from the body where a parasite resides Carnage, desolation I the power divine What once was passed as lunacy will end In the demise of all beneath, the parasites The fear inside escapes me as I navigate the embers to the light The flame ignites and scorches mark The caustic killing fields the bodies high Carnage, desolation I hold power divine What once was passed as lunacy will end In the demise of all beneath, the parasites Wounded, left to die The rest run for their lives No place left to hide The strong and the weak divide Divide Horizons of fire light up the genocide Prophetic visions align Alpha and Omega personified Psychotic master enshrined Carnage, desolation I hold power divine What once was passed as lunacy will end In the demise of all beneath, the parasites Carnage, desolation I hold power divine What once was passed as lunacy will end In the demise of all beneath, the parasites I am Polemos Bow before your God Mercy is for the weak None shall be spared All things to an end Suffer All life to the grave Nothing shall be spared All things to an end Sky goes black All light to descend Green has turned to grey Ashes shield the sun Death eternal I am only one Death eternal I am only one Death eternal I am Polemos Kneel before your God I am Polemos Crawl before your God
