Swallowed in Black

Unknown substance A putrid cloud Choking all within Results of progress A noxious waste Floating in the air Living free? Chemically So now our world is fading into slowly burning out Prime Wealth? Toxic Health Advancing towards extinction is the way it's turning out Foul Air? Do you care? Is cleanness where you live Going against your common believe Too much slime, insufficient time? In a suffocated future will you find the time to breathe Jammed in one place Blind in haste Progress can't wait A life in waste Tending towards - Technology Reverse of: life's biology Chemical comatose Radiation overdose Burning, melting flesh Leaking slime of dissolving waste Overflowing blackness of death Creation is being torn down by abuse Infringement of the substance and our use Elements decomposing, dilution is too slow Every contribution to the evolution Its bad gets worse; deathly course Swallowed in Black Faced with reality? Search your memory Nothing dead ever comes back The Black

Time...is wasting Time...is passing The world...is going straight Down the tubes, oh well What man will make of it... Time will tell Time... Watching all that's wasting in this world In time there's no escaping what's to tell The population is feeding, soon to fall There's got to be a better way, time will tell Quality receding Contaminants increasing Consequently death The splendor and the radiance The brightness and the brilliance Sheer luster of life is gone The foul stench of stag Will devour the human race Until every bit of life is gone Poverty, extremity, impurity, insolvency The crumble, decline, destruction, wears on There's got to be a better way Blacken the sky, nature has died Wastefulness of mankind Thoughts were impure, time must endure We must stop before it's too late Impurities will crush, till all life is lost Destruction of the ozone layer What has been said, what's left to say There's got to be a better way Putrification, uncleanliness of man The man infestation, infected world span Filthy impurities, blue sky turn to gray Crippled efficiency, the black eats away Putrification, uncleanliness of man The man infestation, infected world span The quagmire and vermin, as bad goes to worse The drab wilt of mankind engulfing the earth Watching all that's wasting in this world In time there's no escaping what's to tell The population is feeding, soon to fall There's got to be a better way, time will tell Quality receding Contaminants increasing Consequently death

Flash of light Before your eyes All is deceased Victimized By undecided crimes Maturing fate Wasting life Surpassing time Eradicate, erupt Toxic clouds exterminate Fusion flow Eats the brain Melds decay Lethal dose Feeds disease Depopulates Rotting blood turning black A violent, noxious death Winds of death Engulf the sphere That no longer lives Entropy Now takes its course Until the end A world gone black through toxic skies Lay to waste Last abide Upon earth Takes its place

Living silence, hidden deep Clouded vision, nothing seen Arise above normality Open your eyes so I can see Can't you hear the scream in me? I'm dying for the chance to be No chance for reality To live and reign inside of me Screams of pain Wake of death Relentless reign A precedent The wake of severity is pushing through A kick in the face is overdue Knowing what you believe is right Blind to everything in sight Living terror From within The wake of severity will now Begin I had a vision of non-existence To pass away, ceased to exist Depart this life, become no more Become extinct just like before No The wake you can't evade Time's path is laid Drowning in our fate A droplet of existence In a wave of ignorance On the path of resistance Only to prove our persistence The wake of severity is pushing through A kick in the face is overdue Screams of pain Wake of death

You say you got a problem I say you want to die Confusion in your mind Terror solidified Violence indisplaced Fear in its place Tempest, yet blind in haste All right, I'm in your face Hostilities come to war Outbreak, a rush discharged Lash out your fuse is lit Go off, inflict the sick Violence indisplaced Fear in its place Tempest, yet blind in haste All right, I'm in your face Implode to the head Convulsive force of red Adrenaline rushing blast Inflamed fury's past Vindication Justification is done

Struck down in a flash of pain Killed swiftly in its own domain Struggling for what is left Brutal shock, dismemberment Ineffective attempts to flee Body stuck to an instant grave Makes no difference left to be Can't you see the life in me is draining away? Destiny calls Don't fall Impending death Struggling to be Now freed Life passed on A million times struck down Body becomes fused to the ground Mangled body Flattened corpse Stench of rot Hammered carnage Crusting thing Maggots breed Degenerate Mortified Disintegrate Eroding bone Melts to stone Collapse to dust Good riddance Struck down in a flash of pain Killed swiftly in its own domain Struggling for what is left Brutal shock, dismemberment Ineffective attempts to flee Body stuck to an instant grave Makes no difference left to be Can't you see the life in me is draining away? Good riddance

Contemplating death, untimely near It's not your death developing your fear Deteriorating state, hope is lost Your greed for life is beyond the cost Hoping for advancement, an invention, a cure Because of your disease your intentions are unpure Corrupted by moral values Spoiled by common wealth In your race for fortune You forgot to regard your health Self pity; shame to blame. Existence transferred to an alternate frame Cellular osmosis, frozen to paralysis Suspending the result of the ultimate nemesis Essence drained, exchanged for synthetics Drastic measures to alter genetics No reincarnation Eternal hibernation False incarnation Opaque destination Catatonic pleasure Anti-fluids numb the pain Robbing yourself of death What did you expect to gain? Frozen fate, all thoughts cease Resisting the afterlife for nothing at all Truth distorted, path into darkness Cannot see what caused your fall Lying dormant, your seed of faith Has grown into a nasty vine Final chapter in the book of life Forever darkness stops the time Delaying natural death For a fear of what's beyond Afraid to take that final step To the place where you belong What you believed before Do you anymore? Or do you want to see Immortality? Looking out from the inside To a place you cannot see Frozen in dark solitude Yearning to be free No one has awakened you A false destiny No reincarnation Eternal hibernation False incarnation Opaque destination False incarnation

Oppressed by darkness in the mind, unleashed action Illusions forming to a substance, manifestation Confused beyond reality, false-fact-fusion Engulfed chaotic interlude, obscure vision When the sick mind is left to rule... Confusion grows, thoughts intertwine Memory is a blur in a scenario of time Details are exposed, but remain ignored Things that are real, are found in a dream The way in which to see things is not what it seems Looking for the answers, in a mirror that is blank Images overlap Reflections deviate Images overlap Reflections deviate Vengeance, sickness claims its spite, twisted memory Unbalance of fantasy and reality, ruptured harmony Fiction animated falsely, materialized There's no reason for deception, there's no lie When the sick mind is left to rule... Vast capacity of imagination Within focus of concentration Abstract input disrupting aim Course of option appears the same A rapid static flashing glance Only a sudden random chance When reasons defy reality Insight has no authority Visions that reality hid Victimized by the Id That's the reflections I despise Or is it true the mirror lies? The truth is clouded from my sight Radiating heat not light Mirages forming identity Thoughts becoming entity Images overlap Reflections deviate Images overlap Reflections deviate

Powers of hate Are directing your thoughts And lead me to believe In what you are not Anger drives you To inflict others' pain Now feel the rage Consuming your brain Committing revenge now regulates Your unguided ways to manipulate Logic dies with bitter frustration Anxiety feeds your slow damnation How can this be right? Your way of looking through me Seeing beyond your lies It's just your way to use me All anger that you feel Its driving force surrounding you Forget your words of hate The power that's confounding you Reason to not forgive Breaking down your tolerance Can't you tell it's wrong Not believing in the consequence Into the recesses of your mind Mysterious shadows unidentified Shrouded by fears of the darkest kind And there your being lies classified This reign of hatred and despise This weapon of spite caused you to lie What is kept secret behind your eyes Is now my fear of the truth denied

Feasting on rancidness Not seeing through the self-accusing lies Are hordes of wormly cowards Who hesitate and fail to bring their dreams to life Oppression Quickening Aspirations Left unseen Lost in occupations Becoming socially secured Life's manipulation Age endures Accepting circumstances Resentment uncontained Quality of existence Capitalistic gains Can't you see Your destiny? Living free Doing what you feel and think is right Or do you just fail to see? BLIND Can't see through your own mind Cast yourself to live this lie Blackening out natural dignity Forcing in abnormal functioning Losing desire your will to leave This life you built so easily It's time... to live Rise Ascend from below to blaze a trail through life Follow your lead and succeed your destiny Arise Alive Strive to live and live to please your mind

Mindless fools listen To a brainwashing, false doctrine Live to obey As they tune into the oracle each day Embedded in the brain of the potentially insane Susceptible to be deceived easily The prophet for the blind is possession of the mind A manipulation of the public's domination I'm the influence of suggestion Your life is my obsession I'm the voice of the media The power of propaganda I've given to you my system Of which you'll become a victim A system of conformity Forfeit of your liberty So careless, you are, of your destiny So confused, of what, has come to be Your life, your worth, you've given up to me Believing, my words, I've become your deity A hollow shell of what you used to be Your life-form drained of mentality Thoughts are ruled by complexity As you're numbed, and sink into dormancy Categorized in societies dominion As a glitch of that non-exception Deceived by the generalized opinion A meaningless specter A lifeless zombie Your ice is thin Trust in false gods Only to be deceived again Your fate is as shallow As the grave you rot in Mindless fools listen Live to obey A life of submission to the oracle of obmission A life of submission to the oracle of obmission A life of submission to the oracle of obmission
