A Vision of Misery

Eyes of the greedy See what they will Lust of the flesh A need to fulfill The fool and the liar Must feed the desire The will to acquire What the eyes admire The eyes of the greedy will always crave for more Feasting hungry eyes on this worthless horde Time and rust will convert it to dust The eyes of the greedy will see no sleep or rest Are you saved or enslaved Trapped by need to have Feel it clench you In a grasp of evil deed Do you want to give in Through the eyes the will to see what they want to see Looking through the eyes of greed Feel temptation burn Each earns his own fate Each one has a will to live Blind are the eyes that need Looking through the eyes of greed Eyes of the greedy See what they will Lust of the flesh A need to fulfill Looking through the eyes of greed Feel temptation burn Each earns his own fate Each one has a will to live Blind are the eyes that need Looking through the eyes of greed

Valley of dry bones Bless the land Arise come together bone to bone Fusion of flesh to bone Sand becomes the blood of man Do it because I say you will Repent to thee or turn to dust Just like the sand There'll be no rest Valley of dry bones Valley of dry bones Bless the land Arise come together bone to bone

Nourishing The flourishing Hybrid way... Machines... Circuits scream Authority Mankind heeds... Machines... Slave to all Lifeless thralls Of computer laws... Machines... Days are gone New life's begun On they'll run... Machines...

Skilled victims play their games A cause of violence for fortune and fame Like all possessed they worship it all Money loving mercenary risks it all Why can't you see the intensity The high that was not to be With no decline it works every time Until we had enough we'll see You can't get enough of the fucking stuff The rotting of the brains a game Time after time With the loss of a mind You're crying out insanity You can't afford to be As fucking dumb as you seem You know the price you can't pay You steal from one to repay The debts of bets, you should die... Slave to misery Causing suffering Anything causing pain Experiencing agony Torment, torture I don't want to see you suffer Slave to misery Causing suffering

Staring at the walls around me Pale and dismal life I'll leave A time of emptiness That surrounds me Waiting just for life to be Seclusion into the mind Involuntary refuge A Period in time I'll wait The carving out of life Left in solitude Wise enough to see It will change... Time won't help me While I'm waiting Tired of living This way I'm feeling Delaying await Depression fills me Descending feeling Lapse of meaning Throw it away Throwing it all away Throw it away Throwing away the day... Wasting my life Waiting for others to get with the plan Taking their time I can't wait forever for this I won't stand Time after time Leaving us dormant and rotting away Waste of the day Until we take hold and break free we'll pay Time won't help me While I'm waiting and throwing away the day Throw it away Throwing it all way Throw it away Throwing away the day Mourning time Seeps into your head Dazed in wait Day is dead Slow to pass Tired of this life Tired of this life I bet I'll die to live Alone...

Torn between life Dividing Inside Dwelling on the lies They made to build their lives Born an accident In a world where no one fits A fact of life for me Starving in poverty Born here... Die here... Reason of being... Strange Living in this hell hole I'm throwing away the day, everyday... Forgive me not For living in this world of rot I can't believe it all to be A facelift, a change, society... Watching tension build My hatred being fulfilled And making me want to kill And kill and kill and kill... Kill, Kill, Kill, Kill, Kill Depression and resurrect life No hate, no ignorance No tolerance for prejudice Coming, come to me Facelift of inner being Don't let your eyes be the guide To what your mind can't see Don't paint the picture by the color Or what it seems to be Know in the debts of yourself What you know to be right Making the difference in how you feel for life Open your mind Look inside Escaping reality by taking in all I can see It's only the way to leave this place We all call misery Looking for the one to find But nobody is left Praying for meaning and waiting for death No hate, no ignorance No tolerance for prejudice Coming, coming to me Facelift of Inner being Value of the one last died in himself His blood burns, peace gone Crying for help... Can't stop misery His silence hears death Wishing the one gone was himself No way of knowing what is rest Death on the inside has killed all that's left Lowest of the low Where feelings are kept His silence is the one cry Silence hears death

Eyes... Persuade the mind Ears... Believe the lies One's own society cries Such a wasted fate Pre-programmed hell Reality is just a state of mind And you can't believe the things you hear and see Getting caught in fear that climbs Escalating high For your inferior mind Can't cope with your right to decide Waiting for your life to be Having no ideas nor dreams to live Believing all of the others' beliefs Determining your fate eternally Your mind is free To believe in what you need To live and breathe Your destiny... Each of us has ideas of their own Depicting original thoughts our own seeds to sow Believing what is right to be real Navigating one's own path to stray from ideals Waste your thoughts Follow their lies Believing the false Close your eyes Deceptive perceptions

Hungriness of killing makes me all I am Exploration of death To heal is their plan Incision, scrutiny Futile plan failing Spawning all sickness Grotesque forms Taking what I want Leaving nothing for you All that is left will be mine in time Infection Sickly form of life Afflicted with incurable infestation Cutting into life Preserving mankind Cutting into life Under the knife Cutting into life Under the knife Hungriness of killing makes me all I am Exploration of death To heal is their plan Cutting into life Preserving mankind Cutting into life Under the knife

All is consumed by vanity Whims and short lived mortality Our desperate cries of pity Are carried on winds for eternity And lost in forgotten echoes... Forever The more that is known The greater there is fear It's worthless to question It's useless to interfere What has already been Will come to pass again An altering is hopeless A chasing after the wind Minutes pass to hours Hours into years The years of your life Reflected in the mirror The mirror only shows The time that you can see But how can time exist Without eternity Revelations of mankind fade away Cries are lost, spray to the wind In revolutions of the world And echoes of forever In an endless circle the sun hides from our sight But as the circle is endless It returns after the night Nothing is new under the sun As past and future become one Though the tide retreats, perpetually from the shore It always returns itself As it has before Everything is meaningless Pure insignificance The past always leaves us But never to subside Recollections of memory And the future coincide In thought dwell the mysteries Eternally they reside Forever is the circle Forever are the tides
