Insect

After we die, invading our bodily cavities
The young of insects feed
On our inactive brains
And numb spinal chords
Open sores drain slow
Spouting yellow pus - from us
Dead human flesh brings nourishment
Survival from what is dead and cold
Our unburied carcass'
Will be reduced to bone
Open sores drain slow
Spouting yellow pus - they're feeding on our souls
A sickening odor seeps - from us

Inside they multiply

Devour us piece by piece
New life from us, dead life not lost
They feed to hatch the spawn
Devour us piece by piece
This dead life not lost
New life from us - dead life not lost
New life from us
Open sores drain slow
Spouting yellow pus
They're feeding on our souls
A sickening odor seeps - from us
insect - insect, insect
maggots

Drowning

Pulled down to the depths
I feel that I am going under
Swept away I struggle now
Gasping for my last breath
Choking me - I can not breathe
Liquid vision, all I see

Drifting - no sign of life
Floating dead
The tide carries me
Fluid fills my lungs, as my eyes open wide
I can't reach the surface - no sense of true direction
My body turns - violently
Cramping limbs - to weak to swim
Drifting - no signs of life
Floating dead
The tide carries me
Drowning too weak to swim
Floating dead - the tide carries me away
Submerged in this grave
My body set a drift
Skin is white and cold
Sinking to the depths
In this liquid terror
Dead and motionless
Drifting - no sign of life
floating dead the tide carries me
Drowning too weak to swim
Floating dead the tide carries me

Crushed by rocks and current
I float up to the surface
My body washed ashore - swollen from exposure
Black and blue, lifeless dead
Suffocation - in liquid

Drifting - no sign of life
Floating dead the tide carries me
Drowning too weak to swim
Floating dead the tide carries me - away

Grinder

Never straight and narrow
I won't keep in time
Tend to burn the arrow
Out of the line

Been inclined to wander
Off the beaten track
That's where there's thunder
And the wind shouts back

Grinder
Looking for meat
Grinder
Wants you to eat

Got no use for routine
I shiver at the thought
Open skies are my scene
That's why I won't get caught

Refuse to bite the mantrap
Be led to set the snare
I love to have my sight
Capped everywhere

Grinder
Looking for meat
Grinder
Wants you to eat

I've held my licence
It came with birth,
For self reliance on this earth
You take the bullet
On which my name
Was etched upon in your game

Day of independence
Stamped us like a brand
Round the necks of millions
To the land

As the mighty eagle
I need room to breathe
Witness from the treadmill
I take my leave

Grinder
Looking for meat
Grinder
Wants you to eat

Grinder
Looking for meat
Grinder
Wants you to eat

Grinder

Suffering In Ecstasy

Suffer inside myself
There is no hope
In this grave
Bottomless
The deepest depths
An empty pit
No way to live
Dead
It's killing me
This deadly plague
Poisoned blood
Runs through my veins
Finding pleasure
Within the pain
I'm suffering
A step away
From the edge
One more rush
All I need is
A harder push
There is no cure
My infection is self inflicted
I'm suffering
In ecstasy
Slowly dying
Inside my body
Locked away
With no escape
Finding pleasure
Within the pain
A step away
From the adge
All I need is
A harder push
There is no cure
My infection is self inflicted
It's killing me
This deadly plague
Poisoned blood
Runs through my veins
Finding pleasure
Within the pain
I'm suffering
Suffer inside myself
There is no hope
In this grave
Bottomless
The deepest depths
An empty pit
No way to live
Dead
A step away
From the edge
One more rush
All I need is
A harder push
There is no cure
My infection is self inflicted
I'm suffering
In ecstasy
Slowly dying
Inside my body
Locked away
With no escape
Finding pleasure
Within the pain

Human Target

My life, my soul
My thoughts are my own
I live to die
That's why I was born
Kill or be killed
The law of the land
Standing tall, I'm not running scared

Human target

Scared, beaten
My bones were broken
Bruised, mistreated
For what I believe in
Survive or die
Fear for your life
I grip the gun tight
Three shots to the chest
One to the head
Standing tall, I'm not running scared

living through the violence
I'm just surviving - there's no way to end
This
One more dead, one survives
Instinct to live
Living through the violence
I'm just surviving - there's no way to end
This
Living through the violence
I'm just surviving - there's no way to end
This
One more dead, one survives
Instinct to live
I won't - die

My life, my soul
My thoughts are my own
I live to die
That's why I was born
Kill or be killed
The law of the land
Standing tall, I'm not running scared
Survive or die
Fear for your life
I grip the gun tight

Human Target

Lycanthropy

The blood of the wolf
Infects my body
In the night hear the howling
Screaming, flesh chewed to the bone
Bleeding, eternal horror

dying in the darkness
Now one of us
Bitten by the wolf
Now one of us

When the moon is full
And the night comes down
Fear all unnatural sounds
Human beast, animal
Curse of the lycanthrope

dying in the darkness
Now one of us
Bitten by the wolf
Now one of us

Carnivorous
Lust for human flesh
Legacy of blood
Infected dead

the blood of the wolf
Infects my body
In the night hear the howling
Screaming, flesh chewed to the bone
Bleeding, eternal horror
When the moon is full
And the night comes down
Fear all unnatural sounds
Human beast, animal
Curse of the lycanthrope

Beneath A Black Sky

Look to the sky
It's turning black
No sun shining light
Day turns into night
No moon above
Lost in the shadows
Eclipsing the sun
Only darkness above

Beneath a black sky

All life will end
Infinite winter
Eternal darkness
Thunder cracks the silence
Emptiness
Above us only black
Frozen stiff
Nothing remains

Beneath a black sky

Look to the sky
It's turning black
No sun shining light
Day turns into night
Emptiness
Above us only black
Hollow horizon
No sun rising
