Embrace the darkness, there's no other way. For I know that good itself does not dwell in me. How can I cleanse myself from all this filth? Born with a leak. Any humanity I started with slowly spilled out of me. Not even love can kill the beast. Embrace the darkness, step out of the herd. Forsake the bastard of god, reject his holy word. No use in grieving a life that never was. Follow me down, reach for my hand. Walk with me through the valley of death. Tear down the walls, welcome the pain. So I can forgive you a lifetime of sin. And just like that, they tie the rope. And just like that, they're in control. And just like that, another soul lost to the void. I want my fucking life back. All the years you took from me, all gone to waste. To the makers of rules, the breakers of backs. To those who charm with their rotten lies, your feast won’t last. All will fall. Then I shall sit on top of the world, Look down and watch you burn. With peace in my heart and the barrel of a gun stuck in my mouth. All that once was will be lost, all life up in flames. The deeper I sink, the less I care.

Never thought it would end this way. The devil is real and is here to stay. Third time I throw up, first time I see so much blood. God I wish I'd never opened the gates, Body parts and blood all over the place. Entrails and fragments of human skulls cover the ground. The rotting pieces of the people I love and care about. Right place, wrong time. How the fuck am I supposed to sleep at night? My dead wife tied to our bed, the kids, the dog, they're all fucking dead. Right place, wrong time. How the fuck am I supposed to clear my mind? It's all a blur, I don't remember shit... But the note on the fridge says, 'I know what you did'. No way... I didn't... I never could... Kill my whole family, but the knife in your hand says you did. The home we built, the life we fought for, Now broken and stained, won't gather itself up again. Oh my god, look at what you've done. Oh my god, the stench, it's so unbearable. No time for fucking remorse. Without a second thought, I killed them all, model citizen. No time for fucking remorse. For I have cleansed them time and time again, model citizen.

White devil 03:13
Follow the devil's will, corrupt the children, divide the nation. Fuck her senseless and kill the bitch, rape the fucking dead. Starve the cattle to fatten the pigs. Kill off the weak lamb, burn the witches. Fuck her senseless and kill the bitch, rape the fucking dead. Don't wait for the world to change, just burn the page. Don't bother sitting through the credits, life's not that great. Regrets, consequences, broken hopes and failed attempts. I spit upon the book of lies, the dream is dead. No hell below, no heaven above. Let them motherfuckers burn, they don't deserve love. So what? You're gonna save them? That would be a first. Spare us your judgments, you've failed this world. You may survive me God, but I'll make damn sure the memory of me forever haunts your thoughts. I am the lions of Nero, the golden calf, The name they fear more than yours. I am the fallen one, the nails, the crown of thorns. I am the fire that will burn your temples to the ground. You made me mortal, I'll make you wish you were too. Come down and face me now. Step down from your holy throne and cast the first stone. Unburden yourself, tell me I was a mistake.

High on life 02:43
High on life, put a knife in your mouth. Slice your face up, cut it clean. Fuck your way to the top and choke on your own shit. High on life, what a time to be alive. Love is pointless, self is worshipped, dreams aren’t fucking real. All life is precious, cherish every moment. Immerse yourself in the blood of the virgins. Carve his number in the flesh of the cursed. High on life, put a knife in your mouth. Slice your face up, cut it clean. All the way to the grave with a fucked up grin. Big ugly smile, ear to ear. Love is pointless, end your useless senseless miserable life. And as the sun goes down, your little world falls apart. And it all breaks down, you're all alone and you'll die alone. Scream, kill everyone you have ever loved, jump off a cliff and die. That'll be a proper fucking laugh. How can we miss you if you won't go away? Kill yourself, no one fucking cares.

Forever stuck at the end of the road. Forever lost, never meant to belong. I piss on your dream of a better tomorrow. You'll reap what you fucking sow. I've had enough of you all, I've nothing to live for. Your world is a cesspool, everyone is a fraud, you're all scum. All you can eat, never enough. You crave blood, you want it all. I'll fucking cut you in half and feed you your own guts. How does it feel? How do you like me now? I've heard enough, seen enough. No hope for the world, no future ahead, nothing to live for. Better the grave than a fucking slave, nothing to live for. Fatherless unwanted children dragged through life without a purpose. All that is left, the deafening silence of emptiness. Hold on to nothing, fateless orphans.

Are we dead yet? I tend to forget. When was the last time I slept? Let's cover the silence with noise, bury the secrets and lies. Fill the void deep within ourselves with mindless bullshit and shallow thoughts. Filling our brains with fucking nonsense all the time. Let's cover the silence with noise, bury the secrets and lies. Bitter and cold, when was the last time we felt alive? Just do what you're told and never, oh never stop digging the hole. Be a good boy and wait for your master to throw you a bone. Where did we fail? When did we trade our spirit and will for a fucking paycheck? Is that to be free? The golden age of wage slavery. Can’t stop the circus, no time to waste. Sleepwalking our way right off the edge. All talking, all dancing crap of the world. When did we become so passive and cynical? All building our own fucking cage, is that to be free? The golden age of wage slavery. And with a comforting beautiful lie just a click away, will we ever want to emerge and face our mistakes? Come nuclear winter, bring rest and comfort. Exhausted servants staring at the dying sun with both feet in the grave. Unhealable wounds, deep and painful. Fragile hands clasped in prayer, eyes and mouth sewn shut.
