Welcome to earth by glorious birth Without beliefs and soon left in the dirt Glorious outcries, some of them fake Doesn't matter if it's night or day We didn't come here to see the show We came here to become the show No matter the outcome No matter the cost We won't surrender Until we've lost When you get something, you've got something to give You gotta earn, 'cause you still gotta live So join the club or prepare to fail You better learn or you'll grow into the trail For in their presence you will lose your mind A happy heartbeat for the fiends to find So pick it up or prepare to learn The outsiders are still waiting for their turn It's like welding water - like wet fire It's a mass slaughter, baby - and it's all "fine" While we've come a long way it's still yesterday But it disappears fast once you start to pay Hand over your earnings, your life and your soul Let the lesser take aim at your made up goal And if someone should question your choices Let them hear all the hate-ridden voices You can choose to hide, but you're dead inside All that is left is your forsaken pride When you are down, and they still try to hit It tastes bitter, what the fuck is this shit? Choose to retaliate or slowly go under But make it worth it, tear hell asunder And when the fist meets the side of the face Nothing will stop you in this dangerous race It may seem perpetual we just wish it was concensual at all It's like welding water - like drowning light It's getting hotter, baby - but it's allright At war with peace itself Withstanding the disease of wealth Life itself has become a trend Fear not, our friend Death is not the only end Their ship is set to sail Their actions about to fail Their dreams of worship derailed With the power of thousands And the courage of cowards And the money to make the trade When there's nowhere to turn Are you to judge or to learn? At least there's a choice, I hope you'll take it We've got enough of robots to fake it And when you curse, they are bound to hail The ship of pride is set to sail But if you cough up a small donation They gonna make you a feller of celebration

Skogsvisan 03:02
Staden lyser upp en himmel som döljer något fruktansvärt Små osynliga moln av barnaskri och hädanfärd som så begärt Snart är tystnaden förbi, natten kommer igen en gång Då tar träden sig i akt och sjunger sin stilla sång natten lång I mörka skogens hörn, där formas ett brödraskap De ska jaga onda träd, men hittar inte fan aldrig tillbaka

Ingen nåd, ingen barmhärtighet Må vara så, ni tar inga hans frihet Neråt, han faller neråt Och i takt med farten växer en inre fejd Han vill framåt, men he vill far bakåt Omöjlighetens val, ett enda slutligt Surecide Och Skräcken säger "I tried..." Choose to use the productive ooze The smoke and booze, ginolicinormous perils Try to find the creative mind He is in there for Sure, but he is not eternal Vakna! Det är dags att bota blinda djur De är nakna och små inuti massdiktatur Natur? Det är en bur! Och i takt med fångenskapet skapas det fler Maskiner, doktriner Som alla följer olika böcker om lögnets ord Och vi har glömt bort alla massmord... Throw the drone into everything unknown Now free to roam the story, universal Choose abuse, or refuse, step inside of his shoes Reduce the use Nevermind the truce For he will not be eternal Forced to hate Primed to heat up the debate Punching air is a bit too late Bite the bullet, taste the fate!
5.
Emblaze me! 02:18
Choose to use the reflective juice Marble minds never falter nor do those who strive So I reach into the sky To transcend all of mankind Open up your secrecy I will die long before I'll bleed Prone to own the creative zone Caramel-coloured passion for the human drone
6.
Addictivated 04:23
Addicted and convicted Her life was a creation sent right from sweetest hell Her instincts; eyes blinking She is there, but she's withstanding every drop of hope Forced to slavery by the dope Amidst the tragedy, burning rope The walking amputee The one, the liberated, careless and free Without the social boundaries of the human norm she'll be damaged forevermore In absence of belief and all that falls below The result of a broken war Blackhearted and departed Her mind has slowly drowned in accidental progress Relentless or endless? She buys her fate With lesser weight she carries on To become one with peace And to fully apprehend All barriers released She will descend, ascend, or transcend 'Twas bestowed upon her honor Reborn with a will to wander She will birth another universe One of warmth, one of love Just one without the curse So let her paint our future for the coming dawn Or we'll be damaged forevermore Without dependence lurking in her molten skull The result of a broken war

It's easy to pretend when you've got everything left to hide It's easier than to save a life It's the easiest of measures among all alluring pleasures It's ours, only ours, just hours and hours of shite and misery De e lättare att passivt bara låta timmarna gå De e lättare än att stå upp på tå O kytta sig omkring i all ofrånkomlig misär Det e ju bara som det är... De e lättare att dölja allt som får dig att må skit De e lätt att förklara hit o dit It's the easiest of powers among all destructive hours De e ju bara som det är...

Runtom i världen sägs det att borta i skogen, uti skogens djup Finns det farliga troll och annat fan Är det rätt berättelse åt nyfikna små barn? För när väl tystnaden lagt sig tung över huset, över husets ro De ger sig ut mot horisontens kant För att komma dit måste de passera bergets brant uti skogen Vinden den river och regnet öser kraftigt, det öser kraftigt ner Och längs med resan märks en konstig sak Alla i den lilla skaran finns inte längre kvar Något har hänt inom skogens ramar, det är allvar nu Och inom kort vet vi vad som försiggår Blodiga små kvistar avslöjar ett klottigt spår uti skogens djup Bäst vad det är ryter träden till med ett Satans ljud Alla flyr för sina stackars liv Ingen hade fattat att skogen är primitiv När morgonen igen nalkas hörs det inget mer Skriken har tystnat, men i gryningsljus Undrar alla var småttingarna håller hus Uti skogen

Bluff 02:38
Hand, skaka händer, smek rikedomens lår Band, bind ihåop er så myky he bara går Men om man kan se sanningen bakom allt ohållbart Då ha man komi längre än lite många uta vår art He e ein bluff He e ett korrupt system He ska bara växa tills he blir problem Ein bluff, teater o kulisser Du spelar också me tills he brister Jomen, bland folket syns ingen svager punkt He gäller att hålla humöret svalt o lugnt Men då he kokar över blandat me noll framtidshopp Då kan man byri fatta att artighet e int meir naa pop He e ein knuff rakt i ditt intellekt Dom ger inga åpp förrän dom ha fått rätt He e ein knuff rakt i din hjärna Fast du vill stå emot, bär du på världens last He e ein bluff, he e inget paradis Inga någå att hänga i granens ris Ein bluff som kommer att avslöjas förr eller senare, he foor väl dröja

Abs(tin)ence 00:44
Fuck this world! Fuck the nature! Fuck the earth! Fuck this portraiture! Fuck your love! Fuck your hatred! Fuck your peace! Fuck all that's sacred! Absence of war doesn't mean peace in your membrane! Absence of war doesn't mean peace in your brain! Fuck the earth! Fuck the seasons! Fuck, despair...

Seasons 05:11
Årstider, månader, och låneberg Vi vill hoppas att allt stoppas Men om det skiter sig Då biter inget mera Dags att planera Fhx forever / Die together Love wherever / Bye, whatever Det var ett fucking anamma Ja, det var det! Det var fint att en gång ha en mamma Ja, det var det! Var det inte där som vi började? Ja, det var det! Var det inte en enda jävla sörja? Ja, det var det! Det ska ju lösas någon gång Ja, det ska det! Det vill brista ut i lite sång Ja, det vill det! Men vi måste ju uppåt från sörjan Ja, det måste vi! Därför signalerar vi början Och det varde ljus Men i en vrå, en skymt av kaos Och där uppå, ett leende alias Bet you can't catch this fuckin' rhythm Bet you won't get the fuckin' vision Bet you can't imagine the beast underneath Bet you won't reflect on the lying right through the teeth En hel säsong; flera om vi fortsätter ha koll Och denna gång styr vi skutan mot vårt enda rätta håll Season one, season two Season three will be about you Season three, season four Season five will be a bit of a bore Season five, season six Season seven introduces the Stix Season seven, season eight Season whatever, we're always late

By the time you realise that you're stuck beneath a roll of the dice Way too late to patronize Gone too far to break out of the daily disguise it smells like bajs Take all the time that you might need Sail away to happier dear memories Consume some juice and plant further seeds Sail away from reality, become free from this breed För universum lever vidare Fast våran art går rakt åt "helvete" De e nu eindå bara som de e Och vi kan inse eller be - Yeah! Lifeless - before me Just like the bulk of our kind Endless - before me Your end will still be inside your own mind Knäpp dina händer och tänd alla de sista bränder En symbol, en idol för universums fiender Throw a gaze out to the sky What a secret to be kept low on the high Consume some ooze and oversupply Testify, and thereby recharge the nuclei just to justify that there's more to this life than the end nearby of endless tries För universum lever vidare Så du kan behålla ditt samvete Ni bryr er inte och det som de e Ska vi sen gråta eller le?

Lyfte dig sakta Det fick dig att akta så bedövad som du var olik än just tankarna du bar Livet i byttan Hjärtat i gyttjan för att ensam finnas kvar i ödet som var oförutsägbart Kan du se igenom mig? Ser du vad som gömmer sig? Kan du hålla mig i handen nu? Kan du bara sitta och vara du? Gav jag dig ett innehåll? Spelade det ens någon roll? Vem ska överleva det då vi är lika sönder alla tre?

Energy in it's purest form Doesn't matter where it's from Feeding of the light Grinding it to dust A huge vibrating mass That is ready to explode Feeding of the light Grinding it to dust We're just particles With guilt and shame We're just particles With ourselves to blame Energy in it's purest form Doesn't matter where it's from Feeding of the light Grinding it to dust
