#1 Hivemind
This world is too big
And I am so small
The voices so loud
And I am a mute
I close my eyes
And I listen close
Stay in your lane
And keep out the world
I bleed, bleed for the cause
What it is, I can't know
Never ask, you'll regret it
Do you really want the answer?
I will die for my country
I will die for my god
I will fight for my doctrine
I will fight for my lords
They taught it from year zero
It is no mere coincidence
I, so weakly cling
To what will give me peace
I, so weakly cling
To what will keep me safe
In-Sane

#2 BREED
Breed, breed and fill this world
Conquer, conquer and expand
Human masses full of weakness
Ready to be broken
Not by whip, not by steel, we break their will
Appoint a warden from within
Sic the hounds at each other's throats
Silent devil whispers toxic words in his ear,
That is the immortal method, divide to control
Empty heads, fed with paranoia.
Licking the hand, Asking for more
They are out there, Looking for you
With a glint in their eye and with tongues full of knives,
They will find you
Sort, sort them all by size
Scare, scare them all to death
Chase the scared horses off the cliff's edge
Show them that outside these walls, all storms rage
Starved dogs feed at each other
Starved dogs feeding at each other
Appoint a warden from within
Sic the hounds at each other's throats
Silent devil whispers toxic words in his ear,
That is the immortal method, divide to control

#3 Instructions For Alienation
Build your inner wall
And cower behind it
So that the world
Will not behold
Your Warped Facade
Design the verbal trap
And dig a moat
So that all wanderers
Will never reach the core
Chorus:
Construct the labyrinth
With bricks and mortar and deceit
and fill it with hallucinations
So that the truth will never be revealed
Shatter the ground that binds
And drift as an island to the waters
So that none can ever see
That you are empty
Created through scars of the past
A living kicking screaming fear
Paranoia that roams these halls
Pushing further all who dare come near
No trust or care, I dare to spare
For this undeserving world
Sway them with big words
Tell them what they want to hear
Wear the mask and never take it off
A fake grin and veins full of fear
No one will ever live to see
My center of existence
The ever-growing , ever-bleeding wound
The gaping hole, wormed forever
Where life once roamed now there is nothing
And when I stare all I can see
Is nothing has remained
And all the effort I could give wouldn't affect a thing
Where life once roamed now there is nothing

IDOL

#4 Idol
A misprocess in creation of man
Leaving us starving
Leaving us hollow
Never to be satisfied
Flawed from birth, twisted perfectionist
Driving himself
Into delirium
Fighting a war that can never be won
In his dreams he sees a perfect self
The mirror now a mockery
Reminding him of what he still is
What he shall never be
Perfection, solitary confinement
Forced upon all those
Starving
Hollow
As I have craved, so I've achieved
And yet at the top of my ivory tower
The view bears none
All I can see is
My Twisted beautiful fantasy
My Final form

#5 Euthanasia
Peace
Every piece of me yearning for peace
Yet I fall down to
My sublime destruction
A splendid downward spiral
To replace my skin with biting iron nails
To fortify myself, to become a walking fortress
A dagger of velvet and gold
Come down and give
Give me release
A breaking of my mortal bonds
A breaking off this waking world
Staring with wide eyes
None know my pain, for I keep it a secret
I reek of the fumes of self pity
It evaporates through the air
Sorrow turned rage
Need becomes hate
Death
Come bestow me with eternal slumber
Death
An eternal killing of the lights
Let the symphony of pain unfold
Pull the thorn that's stuck in me
To live like this is pain, materialised
I swallow the sun
And cast down the moon
Peace
Every piece of me yearning for
Peace
A sublime destruction
A splendid downward spiral
To replace my skin with biting iron nails
To fortify myself, to become a walking fortress
A dagger of velvet and gold
Release thee, sweet euthanasia
Come down and give
Give me
Release
A breaking of my mortal bonds
A breaking of this waking world
Let me die

#6 Lament
I am a hollow man walking towards his end
And no light enters my vacant, dead gaze
I seek no refuge from the cold,
No food, no comfort
My body aches but my soul is still
There is nothing left to hurt me
I will finally be free
Once I cast myself into the abyss
Where I belong
Where I am nothing, and nothing is I
Where forever I fall, blank
No longer a shadow in this life
Cast aside and forgotten
Let the dust cover my remains
Let me fall down from this earth
And as I approach the great rift
Cold winds begin to blow,
From the depth of everything
The source of of all and none
A gaping smile torn in the ground
And I stare into it
Black eyes that stare right back
Black claws that sink and pull me to the abyss
Where I belong
Where I am nothing, and nothing is I
Where forever I fall, blank
No longer a shadow in this life
Cast aside and forgotten
Let the dust cover my remains
Let me fall down from this earth
I crave to walk where the shadows fall,
Where angels lie with blooded stumps for wings
A place forlorn, a palace fit for kings
A world where pain and pleasure are mere fantasy
I wish to kill the human side in me
To become the clockwork, ever pacing
To feel no pain
But I see a light emerging, from no sun or star above
A blaze from deep within, a sense of strength I’ve never known
From the bottom I see all from the bird’s sight, I open my third eye
To be none is to be all
I am a hollow man walking towards my end
And no light enters my vacant, dead gaze
I seek no refuge from the cold,
No food, no comfort
My body aches but my soul is still
There is nothing left to hurt me
I will finally be free
Once I cast myself into the abyss
Where I belong
Where I am nothing, and nothing is I
Where forever I fall, blank
No longer a shadow in this life
Cast aside and forgotten
Let the dust cover my remains
Let me fall down from this earth
And as I approach the great rift
Cold winds begin to blow,
From the depth of everything
The source of of all and none
A gaping smile torn in the ground
And I stare into it
Black eyes that stare right back
Black claws that sink and pull me to the abyss
Where I belong
Where I am nothing, and nothing is I
Where forever I fall, blank
No longer a shadow in this life
Cast aside and forgotten
Let the dust cover my remains
Let me fall down from this earth
I crave to walk where the shadows fall,
Where angels lie with blooded stumps for wings
A place forlorn, a palace fit for kings
A world where pain and pleasure are mere fantasy
I wish to kill the human side in me
To become the clockwork, ever pacing
To feel no pain
But I see a light emerging, from no sun or star above
A blaze from deep within, a sense of strength I’ve never known
From the bottom I see all from the bird’s sight, I open my third eye
To be none is to be all

MONOLITH

#7 Monolith
Life, a writhing twitching spasm
A catatonic, stereotypic movement
Of crushing elbows
An endless loop of repetition
Humanity never learns from it's own perdition
History repeats itself
For the sins of man are always the same
Always the same
Yet it remains
It never changes
Never ceases with the wars it wages
Chaotic, little beads met with high pressure
Acceleration met with the concrete floor of reality
Fight or flight
Manual over-ride
Hijacking the human brain and soul
our Hubris and pride
The reins with which we're pulled
The twisting knives driven in our backs
Sitting atop his monolith
A self appointed god
He who has
Distanced himself
From these petty human quarrels
He returns to his source
To his untouched, Unscarred self
Drinking from the waters of the fountain
Realizing the absurd
And crossing the wall
Arriving to the edge with clipped wings
And storming the void
Falling into it's eye
To fall into great depths
And hit the bottom
To soar onto great heights
And touch the heavens
To know and realize which is what
As fall turns to flight

#9 Heal
Digital walls to an analog world
Computed distraction from random horror
Keeps the chaos of reality out
And yourself
And myself as well
I bury my head in sand
Always denying
See no evil
Hear no evil
Turn a blind eye to a simple sight
I deny
And yet it grows
It piles up higher
Before me clear vision of freedom
Settling within me
Undeniable truth
Of the nature of my being
A fractured psyche opening its eyes
Opening It's eyes
Now mending the damage of years
Of neglect
Of guilt
Now spread my broken wings, Soar
It takes root
Realization, of what is sublime
It releases and frees me from the fixation in my soul
That grew and took its toll
Erased From My Hard drive
I Rise up
Blank and proud
Letting go of all I know
Eternal triumph
Know Yourself to know this world
Change yourself to change this world
Heal yourself to heal this world
The wounds I see in others are my own
I cannot change what I have wrought
But I can break the stone inside
Devote myself to the approaching tide

#8 Erasure.
I am flawed
I am fearful
I am doubting
I disbelieve
I am
A complex equation
A judge, jury and executioner
I am Vessel of passion
A sex drive with a body
I am
An archive of random thoughts
Categorizer of humanity
In my jail cell
I am the only one with a key
I, the only constant in this paradigm
I, the world shifts before my eyes
I, total erasure of my former self
I am no longer scared
And now undoing creation
Decimation of ancient perceptions
And now I sense a direction
A path is forming
And now I walk among the stars
Treading through mortality
At last I am free of my self
I’ve killed my other half
A parasitic twin feeding from me
Since day one
Now It’s changing
Now it’s gone
I, the only constant in this paradigm
I, the world shifts before my eyes
I, total erasure of my former self
I am no longer scared
I have torn at the seams, I am fearless
I am no longer doubting, I now believe.

TITUS'S MOSQUITO

#10 Titus's Mosquito
There's an itch in my mind
It will not leave
Titus's mosquito
The seeds of an idea
Now bearing savage fruits
A god inside me, locked away
Shunned away
I will free it from the withering touch of normality
Mediocrity
To hatch the egg
Fear not, morning will come
Mother sun will melt our chains
Eden, within our reach
Terra, our motherland
Those who crave, follow forth
And embrace my acidic call
Have no fear, Take control
Grow your teeth
Bite off the hand that blinds
I am no mere puppet, For I am man
A solitary thinking unit
Fed with my own shackles
Cuffing myself to the wall
I dropped my pants and bent
Ready to be assimilated
Re-educated, sent me from this gulag
Were they filled my soul with hate
where I was taught to be a pawn
To take my fall to kill a king
Never taught to question
Never breathe free air
Always keep rolling your rock
The system's needs are ethereal, mine are measurable
I cast away my barriers
Re-ignite my inner flame
I bestow it upon all listeners
Even you can hear my call
And you know it, but you’re not listening
Even though I scream it into your ear
I’m telling you to wake up
And burn away
This freakish dream
WAKE THE FUCK UP
