I drank from the chalice
Containing the blood
Of a people
Transparent to the Gods
I spoke to them
Spoke a melody
Told them of the ocean
Beyond the sea
Forget the droplets
They won't satiate
Final destination
Straight for the throat
In the ground
There is no light
So crawl to fire
Into fire
A new chapter
A cresendo
A choir set
On turning over
All together
All as one
The monolith
Will come undone
Forget the droplets
They won't satiate
Final destination
Straight for the throat
In the ground
There is no light
So crawl to fire
Into fire
What remains?
And what can change?
Symphony of misery
Churn out the anthems
For martyrdoms
And memories
Thirst for the holy
Sweat for the heat
Straight for the throat
Make the bastards choke

Starfish Story
02:28
|

|
I was standing by the ocean
Throwing starfish to the sea
A man who saw me wondered why
So he came up to me
I said I throw the starfish in
So that they wouldn't die
He said boy why does it matter
There are thousands on the beach
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
Still standing by the ocean
Throwing starfish to the sea
There are always men who wonder why
And they come up to me
They say boy what does it matter
There are thousands in the sun
I threw another in and said to him
It made a difference to this one
So does it matter?
So does it matter?
Does it matter to this one?

Oh Vincent, don't tell me, they know
We left the, bag open, in heat
As we walked the factories
As we walked the streets
And delved in, philosophy
Minds set, for paradise
We're marked to, be marked for, life
Oh Vincent, don't speak of
Oh Vincent, don't speak of
Oh Vincent, don't speak at all
Lonely roads
Lonely goals
In a bag
Full of hope
Open, ended, glance
Connected, dots, we were had
Banging door, 1am
Flash of day, straight front page
Taken in, heaven's gate
Lonely roads
Lonely goals
In a bag
Full of hope
We're red
We're dead
We're red
Again
Boy cracked open, truth came out
Boy cracked open, peace came out
Boy cracked open, will came out
Boy cracked open, love came out
We're red
We're dead
We're red

War
For dominion
For the sacred
And eternal
Light
Of a torch
As it burns you
As it earns you your place in
Hell
Forever
For your questions
For the answers you have to
Die
So that we can
Prove to ourselves
That there is an afterlife
Come into me
For I am your savior
War
For reprisal
Retribution
Doctrination
Stands
At the pulpit
Speaking serpent
Preaching stories of hope and
Peace
For the world
For the ages
And forever
Kneel
At the power
At the glory
At the temple and mosque and the church
So come
Come into me
Join us we will sing (of life)
Join us we will bring (only death)
So come
Celebrate
Our victory
For all
Mankind

Apostate Rhapsody
02:43
|
|||
|
Hey, hey,
It takes two to tango, don't they know
They, they,
Read all the words, as a curse
Hey, hey,
A mind and a martyr, don't go well
They, they,
Read all the words, but not the verse
Muhammad lives alone
Hey! Apostate!
Hey! Shut the gate!
Hey, hey,
The carpet's stained, soaked in blood
They, they,
Made real sure, you'd remember
This, this,
Lesson learned, and delivered in
His, his,
Name forever, and not in vain

Sleepless Future
03:49
|

Take your time, take it well
For this is just, just the start of
The blessed journey to the pinnacle
Take your time, enjoy the ride
It doesn't matter, that you're alone
Cause we're all headed in the same direction
Free will crash course
Trapped in a sleepless future
Brace your body, brace your mind
The rails are broken, but we'll be fine
Tapestry, intertwined
A reckless, bloodless
Forgotten seal
History, it begins to see
A shadow of its former self
Shrouded by its future form
Free will free fall
Lost in a sleepless future
Brace your body, brace your soul
Brace your self to lose control
An age for one and all
For the living, for the dying
An age for one and all
Never sleep forevermore

Terminal
03:06
|

|
Tearing certain chapters out of history
Till they reconcile, becoming distant memories
Grasp a thought and try to make it, make it mine
Make it mine, make it mine
Terminal, Terminal
Waiting for our destinations to unfurl
Terminal, Terminal
You, and I, and all the others in the world
Tearing certain chapters, making mysteries
Then riding out the winds forever, eternity
Hang on to your head and heart and, watch the sky
From the line, from the line

Never Prosper
03:10
|

|
Life regards
Everyone
As equal beings
Under the sun
So why do you eat
While they starve
Have you got an
Answer yet?
So never
Never prosper
Life regards
Everyone
As equal beings
It is run
On a system
On a system
That depends on
Dreams at ransom
So never
Prosper
For anything
Never
Prosper
For anyone
