1. Curse (Of The Cloth)
Welcome to my house of sadness Welcome to my house of sadness Surreal in ist week foundation Stillness moves through anciant walls Sun shines glinting bringing warmth I am ready to confess Impliment of seduction Pre-empted I bare my soul I bare my soul I bare my soul I bare my soul
Through the mosaic of wood and stone I ran into a wall of silence Surmounted by the laws of lords Ruling with a double standard Slaughter of the pilgrims never ending In come to sanits, martyers sing Maeching to their own drum He who casts the first stone be without sin
[Chorus :] Curse Curse of the cloth Curse Curse of the cloth
Acountalbe to none, they lie in readiness Under the cover of kindness Continueing the curse of the cloth Under vatican protection Punishment, full redemption Hidden, re-location Pestilence in the name of salvation
[Chorus (2x)]
[Chorus (2x)]
The curse continues...
2. The Answer
All in the answer All in the answer
Battle call of the fathers Personnal war of the elite Hypnotized by symbols Idols and coloured rags Condems full attention Contradicts a way of life Brother fight my brother Heritage of the east and west Orphans of a changing world
Blind leading the blind
[Chorus (2x)] The question is the way we never Stand up for what is right The question is why we always Stand up for what is wrong
Violence in the name of peace Triumph of good over evil Divided by key players United in creted the rift Expressed in code warnings Deliberate deception Love hate partners sharing Never ever to unite Confort your own morality
Blind leading the blind In fertile fields, searching for answers
[Chorus (2x)]
Blind leading the blind In fertile fields, searching for answers
Blind leading the blind In fertile fields, searching for answers
[Chorus (2x)]
All in the answer
3. Prophecy
We can't keep something alive That has no heart Doing what is good Is not doing what is right So the beat goes on
Time has come to be a hero See your name in bright lights Swept away with grand illusions Force fed visions of fame Your guard is down You are the hunted In a corporate world That has no shame Contracts signed all hail the new kings Kept in a state of eternal bliss to be
Stranded like thousands that went before me Stranded but I will never lay down come on
[Chorus :] Break out, rise up from oblivion Rise up, sinners an saints Break out, rise up from oblivion Rise up, black sheep shall survive
Bathing in short living glory Quickly becoming a faded memory Drowning in the hidden vortex Overflowed with ruined lives Beaten by the glamour forces *harvest fruitful lays between the lies This phoenix rises out from the ashes From a light that never goes out
Stranded like thousands that went before me Stranded but I will never lay down come on
[Chorus (1x)]
Stranded like thousands that went before me Stranded but I will never lay down Stranded like thousands that went before me Stranded but I will never lay down come on
[Chorus (2x)]
4. Endowment Of Apathy
Born in a city, no more than a wasteland Flash point, a struggle to the bitter end Productive life, serenity a god send Auxiliary a second class citizen Voice of the future, always a breath away Opinions moulded, educated to obey Destined to seclusion and decay Auxiliary, a second class citizen
Doomed from the womb Born on the wrong side (of the tracks) In the wrong postal zone Doomed from the womb
[Chorus :] Random, brutal, rough, justice Tried convicted, endowment of apathy Random, brutal, rough, justice Tried convicted, endowment of apathy
Years of grind in substandard luxery Masses grovel in poverty and misery Negative, Endowment of apathy Erosion of pride, faith, integrity Survive a system, expecting the norm Broken willed, expressionless born Trial by fire, walk the plank at dawn Whitewashed, strippedn peeled and torn
Doomed from the womb Born on the wrong side
Ambitions, no crime Ambitions, no crime Ambitions, no crime Pre-judged Ambitions, no crime Ambitions, no crime Ambitions, no crime Pre-judged
[Chorus (1x)]
Doomed from the womb Judgement has been passed
[Chorus (2x)]
5. Enemy Mind
What you waiting for Enemy at my door, what are you waiting for Demon preacher tracking me, I have no place to run Enemy in my mind, desperate and sublime Demon preacher tracking me, I have no place to run
Now you carry my life, fragile with passion Vigilant the fight, I stand alone
[Chorus:] Ranting the sermon On the edge of reason This is tomorrow calling And slowly I am drifting away
Anger deep inside my mind Stealing the sands of time Constantly confusing me I have no place to run
Now you carry my life, fragile with passion Vigilant the fight, I stand alone
[Chorus (1x)]
[Chorus (1x)]
This is tomorrow calling And slowly I am drifting away
6. Skin Trade
Lure of the good life, lead into the promised land Crossing over boarders hand in hand Giving trust in the face of danger The battle of control has just begun Common language, universal tongue Serving up salvation, liberators, pimps in disguise Enforcing thresholds to survive Switching on to satisfy, servants must perform Foreign acts of desperation, mercantile for existence
Enslaved, abused and betrayed Trapped in the skin trade, trapped in the skin trade
[Chorus :] Screaming in silence Exchanging skin for gold
Messiah, turned traitor, leaves all callous and drained Providing for hideous and the lame Enticed into a snare, held in a prison nowcalled home Executing foul gratification Exposed to random acts of physical disgust Compelled to adhere to the captures corrupt mind Switching on to safety, servants must perform Foreign acts of desperation, mercantile for existence
Enslaved, abused and betrayed Trapped in the skin trade, trapped in the skin trade
[Chorus:] Screaming in silence Exchanging skin for gold Slavery sold to, suffering into Exchanging skin for gold
7. (Built To) Resist
Branded, forced into exile Cinical routine, family union dissolved Accused, abandonment, dead beat Admonished, siblings, severed values detached
Hear my children calling Loud out to me I won't subscribe to a campaign Bent on tragedy
[Chorus :] Build to resist, build to resist My children I'll come for you
Bonded, subculture formed Anguish, yearning fills painful spiritless void Blood flows vested strong and free Starved from rightful tender physical resolve
Har my children crying Loud out to me I won't subscribe to a campaign Bent on tragedy
[Chorus (2x)]
My children I come for you
8. The Gift
Time heals, time heals old wounds Bad habits die hard, bad habits die hard Tired of, tired of self Tired of selfinfliction, selfinfliction, selfinfliction No more leaving morals at the door Cut out the cancer, time to settle the score
Hood-winked divine, partners in crime
[Chorus :] Present to you the gift that shines Two hands will deliver, two hands will deliver Present to you the gift that shines Reward gift that shines perfect day
impact, impact of pride Unwanted burdens, unwanted burdens Conflict, conflict will bring Conflict will bring aggression, bring suppression, bring depression No more leaving morals at the door Cut out the cancer, time to settle the score
Hood-winked divine, partners in crime
[Chorus (1x)]
No honour amongst thieves
[Chorus (1x)]
9. Privilege
Severe the senses, dominate, divide Born from pain Falling victim to own vengeance again Born from pain, rise Push me, shove me, push me down To see the light, step through the dark
[Chorus :] Privilege born from pain, privilege born from pain Empires embossed, embattled cultures Privilege born frm pain
Heathen, zero identity Set hem free Installing fallibilty Set them free, rise Push me, shove me, push me down Endless the moving question
[Chorus (1x)]
[Chorus (1x)]
We are a dying breed
10. Blood Of Saints
Seal your fate, seal your fate Seal your fate, seal your fate
Souless, forgotten in time Deep hunger flows in the veins Of the anciant Seducing dreams, spiral in motion Endless the quest, for life everlasting
fever inside, inside fever This is not a dream
Faithless, avoiding light Needless attention, proud to be noticed Driven by thirst, successers bleed A vicious beauty, scorned for a thousands yaers
Fever inside, inside fever This is ot a dream
Pray, bathing in the blood of saints
[Chorus :] Learn the lesson, cold and bare From life's sharp razor, life's sharp razor Cut your fate Cut your fate Cut your fate Smash the sin, expose the sinner Cut your fate, bathing in the blood of saints
Free from eternal nig ht Rhymes of resurection crusading as immortal Transform, the balance shifts Sexual presentation, addicted to the chase Blood and music blend together Sing a song and dance with the devil Burnig bright, walk in the light Te embers of youth Pray to your wretched god
[Chorus :] Learn the lesson, cold and bare From life's sharp razor, from life's shrp razor Cut your fate Pain and despair, don't stand and stare A wise man rides on the winds of change Bathing in the blood of saints
Learn the lesson, cold and bare From life's sharp razor, life's sharp razor Cut your fate Cut your fate Cut your fate Smash the sin, expose the sinner Cut your fate, bathing in the blood of saints
11. Man With No Insides
The man with no insides, the man with no insides The man with no insides, the man with no insides
Open this Pandora's box Crosse fequencies pass through Embark on someone elses train Po the king weasel
So let the chant begin - ensue Master the dance of the dead - vital Sing lullabies oftime gone by Come children emanate him
The man with no insides, the man with no insides The man with no insides, the man with no insides
Immerse the pawn In the slave of delight Enwined within the carnival of soars Pop goes the king weasel
So let the chant begin - ensue Master the dance of the dead - vital Sing lullabies oftime gone by Come children emanate him
So let the chant begin - ensue Master the dance of the dead - vital Sing lullabies oftime gone by Come children emanate him
The man with no insides, the man with no insides The man with no insides, the man with no insides
