Shell Shocked
Verse 1 - No man’s land barren wasteland, cesspool of mud and shit
No haven for man or beast, hells fire is lit
Chorus 1 – War is the Hell men tend to dwell fighting to take control
I’m just a man made to fight, I fear for my soul
Verse 2 - Bone cracking cold fatal disease, warm and dry is never seen
Modern weapons deadly arsenal, feeds the killing machine
Chorus 2 - War is the Hell men tend to dwell fighting to take control
I’m just a man made to fight, No rest for my soul
Verse 3 – Keep your head down stay alive, the battle draws near.
Waiting for the order, try to squash the fear.
Live for your buddies not yourself, ‘cos the enemy is in control
Aiming sight trigger pull, sniper just took your soul.
Chorus 3 - War is the Hell men tend to dwell fighting to take control
I’m just a man made to fight, wanting to save my soul.
Verse 4 – Chlorine gas everywhere, Zeppelins fill the sky
Cannons blast as volleys fly, is this the day we die?
Bunker walls quivering from giant angry shell.
Time to fight time to kill send them all to hell
OVER THE TOP!!
Verse 5 - Boots don’t grip in the slop and mire, poison gas setting lungs on fire
Flesh being torn by barbed wire wall, watch helplessly as your buddies fall
Balls of lead shredding guts, broken bodies falling in bloody ruts
Enter the realm fight hand to hand, stab a man’s heart for an acre of land
Bridge - Colorless world of smoke and mud, quickly becomes a sea of blood
Verse 6 - Next day battle is done, sit and reflect in the cold pale sun
How many more losses, draws and wins? Breathe young man and count your sins
Chorus 4 - War is the Hell men tend to dwell fighting for control
I was a man made to fight, this war consumed my soul
Verse 7 – Battle is lost I’m home alone, Still hearing the death knell toll
The men I killed, the men I slayed, war is a bloody game, and I played
Each I sent to his final place, I still see the horrors in their face
No friends left, they’re all underground, cannons and voices incessantly sound
Why was I spared? Left to grieve, demons nightly haunt without reprieve
No rest for me is this Gods will? Needing solace my final kill.

Zieg Heil
Raised to hate everything but your kind, Stereotypes racing thru your mind. No reasonable thought in your head, all your wants for them to be dead. Blinded by your misguided visions, hate controls all your decisions. Lies you spread to control the minds of sheep, the cloud of fear forever grows deep.
Twisted misguided machinations of hate. The hand of doom set to a date. Hysteria and fear you work to create. Races of man will soon learn their fate.
Your meteoric rise to power, hate and fear put you in your tower. Control the masses everything on a spin, Campaign of hate set to begin. Army's and hordes in your control. There is no return you've lost your soul. Persecution and torment all apart of your plan. All will suffer if they're not of your clan.
Twisted misguided machinations of hate. The hand of doom set to a date. Hysteria and fear you work to create. Races of man will soon learn their fate.
Round 'em up put 'em in camps, treat the women like useless tramps. Mark 'em tag 'em put 'em in cages, the hate you spread dormant for ages. Spin the reason truth you will hide, the hate it swells deep inside. The number of dead begins to grow, with the graves you've dug with bodies you sow.
Twisted misguided machinations of hate. The hand of doom set to a date. Hysteria and fear you work to create. Races of man will soon learn their fate.
The world now pays attention, drawn to your immoral detention. Speeding up your plan there's only a few, never do you want to hear someone called Jew. Time is short your plan in trouble, all your hate lay in rubble. Your madness has brought war and strife. Your soul now fated as you end your life.

DIVINE WIND
Ancestor’s speak, of my life’s course
Honor the man, on the White horse
Sacred oath taken, Honor is bestown
Upon Silken headband, family name is sewn
Okamura’s folly, desperation plan
Suicidal pilots, Sacrifice to save Japan
Too many losses, this war has taken toll
So few of us left, the fallen we’ll extol
Barely seventeen, our oldest twenty-four
So much more to life, not anymore
Forty hours of training, rushed to the sky
Only one mission, sink your ship and die
No thirst for glory, no honor being vain
Just one desire, honor father’s name
Say final prayers to family fallen long ago
What horrors lie ahead only they would know
Across the Leyte Gulf rises the Eastern Sun
The day of my final mission has begun
Armadas’ smoke plumes fill the sky
Fire up the engines it’s time for us to fly
One-way trip, never to come back
Courage in my veins, fear I lack
Ohka, Baka, call it what you wish
One deadly purpose, make you food for fish
Propaganda & politics fill my rage
Speed down the flight deck prepare to engage
Out of the Sun diving straight and true
I know this is it, my time is due
White knuckle the stick, eyes turning red
Thousands of bullets, aimed at my head
You see me coming and put up a fight
Admirable, your muscle and your might
You scream in terror, you cry in fear
I smell your blood as my bomb draws near
Send your steel fortress, bottom of the sea
Sacrificial death, coerced destiny
Finding my target, I hit my mark
Fireball explosion, everything goes dark
The sky was my home, the sea now my grave
My honor, my heart, my soul, all I gave
Pray my name in reverence, say my name in praise
My mission of honor, concluded my fighting days
No thirst for glory, no honor being vain
Just one desire, honor father’s name
The sky was my home, the sea now my grave
My honor, my heart, my soul, all I gave

Puppets in the field
Lies are told reasons are spun, efforts to keep you from coming undone. Truth subjective yours different from mine, circumstances relative to keep you in line. Propaganda sown like seeds in the mind, labelled and tagged sorted with your kind. Ignorance breeds fear, fear begets hate, conditions set by the powerful to dominate.
Puppets in the field, your masters make you yield. Debt slave your life away, do only as they say
Sadistic minds manipulate the weak, subliminally controlled what to believe. Spoon fed lies herded like sheep, in their make-believe world you sleep. Fall in line do as you’re told, never question why or be so bold. Your life is not yours to live, semblance of freedom is what they give.
Puppets in the field, your masters make you yield. You toil your life away, until death makes you pay.
Sadistic minds manipulate the naïve, ignorance breeds fear, fear begets hate. Conditions laid for the powerful to dominate.
Running through life thinking everything’s fine, like the rat in a race to the finish line. Veil of deception covers your head until the day you wake up or end up dead. Oppression and suppression come in different forms, Weak minded programmed this is the norm. Empty promises of a better life, reality knows hardship sorrow and strife.

‘Tis The Season
Boots on the ground, bodies all around. Spin the reason, ‘tis the season. Boots on the ground, bodies all around. Spin the reason, ‘tis the season.
Pawns in someone else’s game. Conductors of war have no shame. Ordered to kill an enemy unknown. Look to the sky, here come the drones. Reasons for war many come to mind. Lust for power will destroy mankind. Hounds of Hell have been released. Sorrow and strife, evil increased.
Boots on the ground, bodies all around. Spin the reason, ‘tis the season. Boots on the ground, bodies all around. Spin the reason, ‘tis the season.
Hounds of hell have been released. Sorrow and strife, evil increased. Your god, your faith, ours aren’t the same. To war we go in our god’s name. Hatred and fear, prejudice will reign. Moral destruction, nothing will remain.
Boots on the ground, bodies all around. Spin the reason, ‘tis the season. Boots on the ground, bodies all around. Spin the reason, ‘tis the season.
Lies and propaganda spun like webs. The war machine churns as rationality ebbs. Told one way really, it’s the other. Never mind forget he’s your brother. Do as you’re told don’t question why. You’re not here to think, you’re here to die!!! Pawns in someone else’s game, conductors of war have no shame.
Boots on the ground, bodies all around. Spin the reason, ‘tis the season. Boots on the ground, bodies all around. Spin the reason, ‘tis the season.

DIABOLUS FALLACIA
Prey on ignorance, create your ism
Conflicts of faith, manipulated schism
This God that god, many different faiths
Kneel and repent, obey my haith
Masses of men not easily led
Create the Bible from which they’re fed
Only the books that fit the creed
Bury the ones can’t let us read
Omitted truths, materialistic desires
Pagan sacrifice, ritualistic pyres
Church built under the guise of light
Darkness grows parallel within their might
Smooth talking glib, slimy little worms
Infecting weak minds, epidemic of germs
Liberties assumed, fortunes taken
Give it all for your soul to awaken
Piety preached one sided truth
Eternal fire sermons, manufactured ruth
Hellfire & brimstone, damnation too
Dogma preached for fear to brew
Travel the globe, murderous patrols
3rd world cleansing, destroy ancient scrolls
Religion’s design only one goal
Worldly dominion under church control
Smooth talking glib, slimy little worms
Infecting weak minds, epidemic of germs
Poor gets poorer as the Church gets rich
Foundation of Gold to build you wich
Speak against the lies, heretic claims
Inquisition trials end in flames
Expose the truth make you disappear
Religion only works when masses kept in fear
Clad in Albs, predators hidden
Innocence stolen, acts forbidden
Children scarred, horrors realized
Mentored influence, youth sodomized
Satan’s lie, kept in the dark
Soul collection, children are the mark
Innocent façade, Ancient evil ruse
Pedophiles serve, children they abuse
Secret orgy parties, sacrifices too
Innocence taken, beware the red shoes
History of lies, deception and greed
Demonic Influence, on Adrenochrome they feed
Unspoken horrors, mind blown truth
Sacrificial lambs, evil fountain of youth
Silver tongued liars, Satan’s evil imps
Children missing, lost without a glimpse
Rape the world, ancient culture falls
Truth of origin, behind Vatican walls
Evil oligarchy, Rome on the throne
Clandestine purpose, fabled cornerstone
Expose the truth, make you disappear
Religion only works when masses kept in fear
Religions design, only one goal
Worldly dominion under Church control
Liberties assumed, fortunes taken
Give it all for your soul to awaken
Poor gets poorer as the church gets rich
Foundation of Gold to build your wich
How many wars, how many dead
When under a god’s banner Armies led

UNDER THE THUMB
Living a life under the thumb, going through motions senses are numb. Told how to live how to act, minute details a matter of fact. Programmed to serve no questions asked, obey commands which you are tasked. Eyes wide open mind shut down, under the thumb your free will is bound.
Under the thumb, someone else’s control. New life wanted to free your soul. Going through motions senses are numb, living a life under the thumb.
Boot of control on your neck, nowhere to turn, life a wreck. Lifetime of sorrow full of regret, fated to die with mountain of debt. Every day always the same, work for someone couldn’t care for your name. Toil and struggle to make someone rich, facts of life ain’t it a bitch.
Under the thumb, someone else’s control. New life wanted to free your soul. Going through motions senses are numb, living a life under the thumb.
Life under thumb always hard fought, your lot in life paid for and bought. Always searching looking for an out, mind filled with fear and the fog of doubt. Wake each day do it again, realization you’ll never win. Years pass by in the blink of an eye, all to do now is lay down and die.

The Black
From the darkest depths I lurk, undetected eyes watch from the black. Your every move noticed, waiting for the mistake to unleash my attack. You'll never see me coming, I'll bide my time 'til your focus slacks. Come a little closer, oh how I long to take you back.
Oblivious to the fate that awaits you, your eyes innocent and naive. Your routine being recorded, the moment ever nearer never with reprieve. Nothing there to save you, the instant I strike you will believe. Just a small window, your body never to be retrieved.
I'll bide my time 'til your focus slacks, waiting for the mistake to unleash my attack. Oh, how I long to take you back, undetected eyes watch from the black,
Coming ever closer, nothing warns you be on your guard. The moment that it happens, you wander into my yard. Fear has you frozen, the time to strike ferocious and hard. You’re fucked and you know it, at best you'll be broken and scarred.
From the darkest depths I came, undetected eyes watched from the black. Your every move noticed, waiting for the mistake that unleashed my attack. You never saw me coming, I bided my time 'til your focus slacked. Came a little closer, now it's time to take you back.
We'll bide our time 'til your focus slacks, waiting for the mistake to unleash our attack. Oh, how we long to take you back, undetected eyes watch from the Black!!

EXPOSED
Always braggin’ ‘bout the shit you got. Walking around acting like something you’re not. The shit you spout is like comic relief. Lies and bullshit who knows what to believe.
Start shit with anyone you meet, we’ve got you figured out bitch so take a seat. Alone all by yourself, how does it feel? Cry some more, but we know your deal.
What’s it worth what’s to gain? Your fantasy world it’s all a game. Look in the mirror only yourself to blame. For a grown ass man you’re a god damn shame.
Lied about your age, what’s in it for you? Stories of a Mustang, what color is it? … blue? How many Harley’s? How big is that garage? All your lies about your Craigs list barrage.
Lied so much can’t remember one from the last. You’ve dug your hole; your dies been cast. Like poison from your lips your word means shit. So get the fuck outta my face or you’ll be forfeit.
What’s it worth what’s to gain? Your fantasy world it’s all a game. Look in the mirror only yourself to blame. For a grown ass man you’re a god damn shame.
What’s it worth what’s to gain? Your fantasy world it’s all a game. Look in the mirror only yourself to blame. For a grown ass man you’re a god damn shame.
Your rep in shambles, your credibility hosed, thanks in part to the bullshit you’ve composed. Your time has ended and judgement has been imposed. Everyone knows because you’ve been exposed.

Killing Lesson

Killing Lesson
Voices in my brain, sending me insane, drive the pain like a runaway train. The thirst for blood, never to be sated. Our paths crossed by chance or ill fated. Do I kill for hatred? Your life and everything sacred, is it an obsession? You'll never get a confession.
Children scream with fear, Mothers weep their tears, shredded corpses broken necks. Everyone seems a bit nervous, with a serial killer at their service.
Watch the dark skies, another one dies, isn't life a bitch. Another is shot another is stabbed and I'm starting to get another itch. I must kill to get a thrill; I don't care who goes down. I come alive in the dark possibly in your town.
All wounds are gaped a young woman raped, signatures of my profession, no matter if I'm caught, I've already taught some impressionable minds a killing lesson. Now there's greed as I do my deed, this time it's unfortunate for two. Losses are hard but don't let down your guard or next I'll be coming for you.
Heroes cry with fear, widows sob their tears, shredded corpses broken necks. Everyone seems a bit nervous with a serial killer at their service.
An urge a kill an overwhelming thrill, the climax from a silenced shrill. Right from wrong society's song, too late now I just can't stop. Bullets fly blood rivers flow, meant to be I'll set you free. The spike of fear shoots up your spine, the chilling realization that your mine.
Victims shriek with fear, mourners shed their tears, shredded corpses broken necks. Everyone seems a bit nervous with a serial killer at their service.
Loved ones and people dear, killings last for years, shredded corpses broken necks. Everyone seems a bit nervous with a serial killer at their service.
