Buried Truth 03:28
A simple act of violence gives birth to war Heaven is silent, god speaks no more Designate perception, mislead the weak A masterful deception, the truth lies beneath Holiest of holies, perverted sense of self Indoctrinated only for centuries of wealth A false crucifixion, redeem the wandering souls True agendas hidden, maximum control Individuality suppressed at any cost Murder is acceptable when worshipping a god Unending condemnation for all those who've gone astray Kneel before the saviour for it is the only way Master, redeemer, hypocrite Silent killer, maniac Religious extremism is a plague upon this earth A history of genocide, in the name of god they serve Injecting fear of hell into the bloodstream of the youth Few and far between are those who find the buried truth The time is at hand for unified defiance Dismantle the priest, dethrone the tyrant Blinded no more, freed from submission This is the war to end all religion

They want us to suffer in silence Any outspoken voice will be crushed Fill us with fear and misery Snuff out the light that's inside of us Slaves to the almighty dollar Counting on our ignorance Catering to the wealthy While claiming we all have an equal chance Homicide, suicide, an epidemic on the rise Forced to endure a tortured life until your soul finally dies The strong have no choice but to support the weak A system that failed from the start Suppressing our freedom of speech Destroying all that we are Send them to war to make profit Then bring them home in caskets They gave up their lives for the cause Their families will get past it Where to turn, who to trust, what are their intentions? Hysteria, confusion, lost in all dimensions Divide and conquer, project genocide Like sheep we follow, project genocide The liar sitting in his chair The serpent lurking in his lair The ghosts of servants left to roam Find no place to call their home Control and manipulation, project genocide No one to rise up, project genocide

Born into hell with the flames at our feet Then crucified by so-called authority Prison or death if you do not conform They are the ones who have started this war Burn the empire, rise up and fight Burn the empire, burn it tonight A life with no freedom is no life at all The sooner we rise up the faster they'll fall Been held back too long by the powers that be There is no army that's greater than we If they don't surrender we'll take them by force We kill for our freedom and show no remorse Gather your weapons, tonight we will ride Tonight we revolt and tonight they must die Burn the empire down Illusions of democracy, designed to deceive A mindless society deserves what they receive Citizens enslaved for the wealth of the nations Dragged through the mud, testing our patience The art of propaganda perfected in time Death, a penalty befitting the crime

Take my hand as we descend further down into the abyss Hopelessness is all that's left, join me now and pray for death The falling of angels signals the end Fear casts a shadow over the earth Panic ensues as madness erupts From the ashes new life will grow Take my hand as we descend further down into the abyss We light the fire that burns the world, eternal darkness kills the sun The once bright blue ocean transforms to red As millions of corpses float calmly by When food becomes scarce we feed on each other A new civilization is born Elimination of boundaries, purification of self Spilling blood the only way to live Suffering will soon be at an end Consequences brought upon ourselves Follow me down into the abyss

The clock strikes twelve and the moon is full as I climb the graveyard gates My mind is frantic, my heart beats fast, my destiny awaits I read the names upon every tombstone, I have to find the one Herein lies the rotting corpse of my adolescent son The site located I plunge my spade into the fragile earth I dig for hours til I'm six feet deep and raise him from the dirt One down but still one to go, on to his mother's tomb I must return them to their perfect state, before they met their doom I will not abandon them, I cannot fail My only point of existence, death shall not prevail Some would call this immoral, but they will never understand Watching my family die was not something that I planned I drive them home and pick out clothes for each to wear Place their lifeless bodies sitting upright in chairs I'll cook a meal and serve us both a dinner plate Admire their beauty and laugh at how we escaped fate Some call me sick, because they do not know I only worship the dead

I know a place where the sun has never shone I know a place that is godless and free I know a place so cold and unforgiving No life inhabits its atmosphere I know a place where there exists no compassion I know a place that is soulless and black I know a place so suffocatingly evil Abandon hope once you've entered inside Eternal winter of my mind Shadows lurk behind every corner Distant voices echo inside hollow caverns Paralyzing cold sweeps through every crack and crevice The stench of happiness long gone still lingers Once alive and vibrant now it's rotting with disease The landscape altered by unspeakable pain Monstrous mountains of misery dot the horizon Once inside you never know what you will find Eternal winter of my mind Lifeless and broken A purge of emotion Trust is reserved for the ignorant Love gives way to hate The dissolution of faith Humanity, feces of the universe Eternal winter of my mind Eternal winter of my mind Cancerous and murderous, emotions are so torturous Its better just to feel nothing at all Shun the light and welcome dark, feed the mind and starve the heart Enlightenment is just a breath away Happiness not viable, borderline maniacal Fear is something that must be destroyed Wash the pain and cleanse the guilt, break down all that has been built Bury all regrets beneath the hate Faded into nothingness so I could be reborn Defilement of all purity, expel my human form Begin the transformation and leave everything behind Peel back the veil and observe with open eyes Fear, a useless tactic that the enemy employs Discover true intelligence, filter through the noise Masked as mere blasphemy reality is twisted The suicide of the soul reveals what once existed

Two daughters, one held in higher esteem One daughter, followed his hopes and dreams Forgotten, the other daughter mourns the loss And tightly grips the tiny wooden cross The father, ignoring his daughter's pain Hangs his head in disgust and shame He pours all of his pride into the other She's all that he has left since the night they lost their mother Father, oh father, why have you forsaken me? Am I not worhty of carrying your name? Daughter, my daughter, I still blame you for her death Don't waste your breath of your pleas, they'll only be in vain Buried far too deep beneath the sorrow she unwinds Unbeknownst to all she finds a peaceful place to die Trembling, she grips the handle of a kitchen knife And plunges it into her heart, the finale to her life The favoured one embarks across the seas Unaware of what's transpired, she's carefree The father waves his daughter goodbye He does not know it will be for the last time Inside the ruins of a crumbling church evil filled her veins A demonic possession of her fragile soul, a spirit struck with rage Awakened from slumber after one thousand years, the parasite needed a bodily host Attaching itself to her every fibre, leaving the one who once was just a ghost Her friends in panic consulted the father They feared for their lives and had locked her away He told them he'd come just as fast as he could But the journey would take him three days Upon his arrival he learned of the truth The demon had ravaged her body to death His wife was long gone and his firstborn deceased He'd lost all that mattered, he had nothing left The travel back home was a long one indeed No single hour did he sleep Convinving himself that he still had a chance But inside he felt he should weep Pride is the enemy that darkens the soul A lesson that's not soon forgot

Cannibalistic by nature, bloodthirsty dogs of war A weakness to seek higher power, an impulse to sever the ties Sadistic experimentation, harvesting humans for gold Starvation to decrease the cost, an execution of tragedy for gain Cast off as abomination, blessing the self-righteous hordes Breaking the chains of confusion, unearthing the root of our curse Tyrannical organizations, dismissal of civil unrest Unleashing an airborne assassin, inhaling the putrid aroma Pride, greed, envy, anger Lust, gluttony, sloth A desecration of the presence of hope A population with instinct for survival An insurrection generations in the making The wheels of motion soon impossible to stop Blood for blood, unmerciful Final defiance, blasphemous intent Preparing for a battle that is old as time itself Those who seek deliverance versus those who would oppress A chance at retribution for a lifetime of abuse Alliance of the people, glory to man

The room is getting smaller, I'm trapped within its walls A distant clock strikes twelve, time stands still around me I scream out loud, begging for another chance I witness my birth My first breath of life Innocent, free of scars I watch myself grow older, the years have gone so fast A child so full of wonder, many trails to tread The world begins to change me Elation to frustration I witness my rebellion, the last of parental pride A hatred born of love I watch my heart grow colder, friends turn to enemies My mistakes come back to haunt me I'm nearly crushed underneath their weight I'm becoming what I feared.. A bitter old man

The mist circles upwards around her like snakes Her voice is a hint of a whisper She beckons me into the thick of the fog The trees have awakened from slumber A manifestation of one i held dear I kneel at her feet and peel off her dead skin The beauty of evil, a glint in her eye My mind overcome with the threat of temptation The scene disappears like it never was there I find myself bathing in waters of blood She stands on the shoreline, her figure distorted The beast at her side waits with anticipation ashe gestures him forward with dry bony fingers Fighting the current, my feet are like stone Releasing all tension, I'm carried downstream The moon in the sky has a face like my own Cast down in shadows, nowhere to run Sick and deformed and my time running out Claw my way back through the mass of cadavers Follow the sound of a thousand souls screaming Her essence abides in the crack of my memory Time has not moved for what feels like forever Rising beneath me is heat from a flame My eyes start to sting from the free falling embers A new scene unfolds both grotesque and erotic She lays on a table, her insides on display Naked and sivering, she's soaked to the bone I know I'm the one who's to blame My pours start to weep with crimson tears I flee from the room with her screaming behind me A tormented maze is the path I must follow Escape is not part of the plan The ending foretold, the journey yet to come Upon the barren throne, the lord is vacant

about

This album is a further development of the "blackened death metal" sound I began to establish with my first album. The lyrics are mostly directed at government corruption and our rapidly declining society.There are also a few traces of the horror style of writing remaining. Themes of self doubt, isolation, and the fear of aging start to emerge for the first time.
