1. Vision
Conquest
[Lyrics
Embury - Music Embury]
Witness
torment in its purest form
Impossible definition of infinite pain
Look
into my eyes
What do you think you see?
What you see is not me
But a dormant stage of what I'm expected to be
Realities
lifeline cuts through me
Forever destined to a life of misery
Realities lifeline cuts through me
It manifests my vision conquest
Mourn
not the dead
The living suffer
Enter me
Withess torment
2. In The Truth Be Known
[Lyrics
Embury/Greenway - Music Embury]
Your
self-determined place of value
Think before you act!
Can you justifiably criticise
A situations development
Sometimes
there's only a single path
Which we have to walk
You realise before you even speak
That we're standing in a one-way street
Why
should we retreat? - To satisfy your gain?
Think
hard - tell me
What's your actual thoughts?
Could you even give your brain the time of day?
I'm
not defending things I've said or done
But let he without sin
Cast the first begrudging stone
If
the truth be known
you desire to judge unchallenged
and revel in the according attention
3. Inner Incineration
[Lyrics
Embury - Music Pintado]
Malformed
spirit
An infestation
Supressing ways of communication
Depression
lingers
Then the journey
At wits end in a socialised hell
Confusion
in recognition
Pessimistic thoughts invade
Shared amounts to archieve a goal
Roles reversed could summon change
[Verse x 2]
Expectations
are enquired
Exceptions should be required
4. Malicious Intent
Lyrics
Embury - Music Embury
Previous
times you stuck by me
Relations fine undeniably
Mutual trust and honesty
The essential recipe
There's
two sides to a coin
Opinions numbered many
Yet resolve came with ease
Compromised and regret - free
Then
the vhange of expression
A unit of friends and the chance to be free
Your
thoughts on these cast a jealous light
A concensus of hate to accompany
A
vindictive acid taste
Flows from your chalice
Valued
friendships tainted
Martyr of malice
Then
the final straw
Violent intimidation
Your self acclaimed pacification
Brushed aside for self-gratification
Blatant
ignorance - martyr of malice
5. Unfit Earth
[Lyrics
Greenway - Music Harris, Mick]
Looking
from outside inwards
A view to dumbfound the most outspoken minds
Silent
screams from an unfit Earth
Battered and bruised with nowhere to hide
Disasters
man made and natural
Gradually pushing to absolute imbalance
On the scales of survival
Soon to tip in favour of extinction
An
unrelenting dioxin cloud
Propelled to dispel our oxygen
Slowly seizing up our lungs
And choking the ground we depend upon
Silent
screams from an unfit Earth
Battered and bruised with nowhere to hide
Transforming
aquatic inhabitance
Overcome by cocktails of sludge and chemicals
Interfering with life on which so many rely
Then dumping our shit to economise
Wanton
destruction
Environment in regression
All reverse into decline
Kiss this unfit goodbye
Silent
screams from an unfit Earth
A future of provocation with nowhere to go
[Backing
vocals by John Tardy (Obituary) & Glenn Benton (Deicide)]
6. Circle Of Hypocrisy
[Lyrics
Greenway - Music Harris, Mick]
Talk
of unity - a far cry from the slander and rivalry
Why should we encourage what in fact is a circle of hypocrisy
Impulsive
jealosy
Where;s the so-called harmony?
Internally untrusting
Externally inspiring
Assume
your place above the rest
The wisest of the less
The knowledge you'll never possess
Compensated for with single-mindedness
Bored
with life you turn to test
Battleground for pettiness
Pick at flies to justify
Temper's raised - You wonder why?
Why??
Supposedly
Accessible
Come support our scene
Just another target
Harassed to the extreme
7. The Chains That Bind Us
[Lyrics
Embury/Greenway - Music Harris, Mick]
Forced
exposure to create what is expected
(To face) neglection is the price no-one wants to pay
Line
in line, stereotypes perpetrated
Similarity of negativity
The
chains that bind us grow stronger
Break
away from the pack of mindless dogs
Taste the scent, realise ambition
Life
- a stagnant lair in which to lie
Taste the scent, realise ambition
A
label to some, habits preset
Faction alienation, bias hold the key
8. Mindsnare
[Lyrics
Greenway - Music Harris, Mitch]
Reasoning
poison in the vein
Chasing the dragon who's frying your brain
The shit that once gave you the high
Now controls your escape from proverbial cloud nine
Sad dependancy - Brainfried society
Mindsnare
All
essence of being in turmoil
Your white powder god brings life to the boil
Forget all you family and friends
Heroin becomes guardian till the end
Jack-up
Its
powers of deception
Seems to null all daily strain
But just another fix
Grip on reality fades out day by day
9. Extremity Retained
[Lyrics
Greenway - Music Harris, Mick]
You
come to us and criticise
Without prior inspection
Judge us as a waste of time
An incorrect perception
Just
a noise - your shallow view
An opinion I find misconstrued
There's probably more thought in what we do
Than a large part of what appeals to you
Why
should we? - Why the need to justify?
Only in others' presence are you motivated to jeer and jibe
Everybody has the right to opinionise
But to us your pettiness is used to occupy your tiny minds
Extremity
retained- never fall into your line
10. Suffer The Children
[Lyrics
Greenway - Music Harris, Mick]
Your
unflappable conceptions
Moralistic views
Never open to criticism
Your overpowering ruse
Promises
of sanctuary
In eternal bliss
With starry eyes and cash in hand
Pledge all to the master plan
Just
face the truth or fund the farce
At
one with your god
your sole intent
Your treasured place assured
For a substantial rent
Global
lunacy
Death threats for supposed blasphemy
No room for free thought
All non believers pushed to the floor
Aggressive
tyrants
Supposed saints for the cause
Judgement through force
Faith a fuel for pointless wars
When
all is done
Who shall benefit? Who is the one?
Not those who pass on
But those dictators divine waving their deceitful wands.
11. Hiding Behind
[Lyrics
Greenway - Music Harris, Mick]
Search
for purityi leads to insecurity
Individuality an incapability
Trapped
within outside theories
Ideals
adopted, agreeable on basis
Yet to question aspects a cardinal sin
Should
self expression mean social loss of face
Labelled unaware because you beg to differ
Hiding
behind a shroud of belief
Staunchly involved, highly confused
Confidence
in your firmly lodged thoughts
Yet take a back seat while others speak for you
Should
every single thinking moment
be saturated with political stance
Striving
for perfection
Fear of group rejection
Better to be at mental ease
Than harbouring thoughts not mutually agreed
The
spoken mind and reasons why
Dictation by others be denied without fail
