Cult of Delusion

I watched an empire burn
From the summit of a holy mountain
I saw a king brought low
By the wrath of the common man (x2)
To end your cult of delusion
It spread like wildfire
All the seeds of sedition
They took root in all the starving children
In every mother left to suffer alone
And every father sent to die for his nation
“Give me your hungry,
Give me your sick,
Give me your huddled masses,
And watch me turn them to shit”
You turned the screws of repression
Tightened your belt and your noose
You turned the screws of repression
Tightened your belt and your noose
We’re on a march to extinction
But you’ve got nothing to lose
Misled no more
We’ll break down your fucking walls
Heartless, corrupt, soulless cult
We are the voice of reason
You are the throat of delusion incarnate (x2)
I watched an empire burn
From the summit of a holy mountain
I saw a king brought low
Witness the end of the cult of delusion
I watched an empire burn
From the summit of a holy mountain
I saw a king brought low
By the wrath of the common man
Witness the end of the cult of delusion

The old world is dying
And the new world struggles to be born
Now is the time of monsters
Now is the beginning of the end
No artifact remains untainted
(Thy will be done)
No golden calf remains unslaughtered
(Thy end is at hand)
Send in the dogs
To tear out your tongues
I hope they catch a thread
So we can watch
You come undone
You will lose everything
(Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done)
Coiled in the grasp of the adversary
Soul sacrifice
Upon the altar of time
Consign to history
All flags, old gods, your masters
Cripple the bastards and join me
In soul sacrifice
[x2]
No sanctuary
No fucking peace
No spoils of war
Will be laid at your feet
Follow your leaders into the void
Heaven sent but hell reclaimed
Devils lament their old refrain
A sinful purge, blessed by the flames
Of insurrection burning again
(Heaven sent, now hell reclaims)
Devils begin a new refrain
(A blessed purge, cursed by the flames)
Follow me into the void
Follow me into the void

Become postmortal
From the login to the grave
Every move that you make
Has been stored and saved
In this digital hellscape
Where human dignity is currency we can’t afford
The only solution is total submission
Prostrate yourself before the new gods
Become postmortal
Consequences of virulent apathy
Dull our senses, weaken society
Fascist bullshit, white trash supremacy
Imitating cowards and tyrants
It’s clear to me what the end will be
Observing our demise
Like reflections in black mirrors
Absorbing blatant lies
Transfixed by saints and killers
Go to your grave knowing
That you will never be forgotten
The last gasp of a dying world
At the push of a button
The algorithm takes a heavy toll
Is it worth its weight in souls?
Vile distractions
Callous nihility
Fractured factions
Consuming our will to live
And now we have to ask ourselves the question - do we even really care?
We could be so much more than this
Just imagine the potential
Of 7 billion minds and fists
Connected and raised in revolution
It’s not too late
We can still be saved
It’s not too late
We can still be saved
Our souls deserve more
Than a digital grave
(It’s not too late)
Observing our demise
Like reflections in black mirrors
Absorbing blatant lies
Transfixed by saints and killers
It’s clear to me what our fucking end will be
Become postmortal

Gehenna

Under the ever-watchful eye
Of a totalitarian state
We march towards the light
Of the new world we create
Through the ashes and the burning embers
We forge a new path, borne of progress
The road to hell is paved with good intentions And golden handshakes over our deathbeds
(we rise)
At the end of the world
When the oceans are boiling, foundations cascading
The earth gives way
We’ve sealed our fate
Through the rise and the fall
Watching empires burning and false kings descending
We hope and pray
To find our way
Through the rise and the fall
A new world is possible
With raised fists and bold hearts
We’ll break through and make our mark
Observe
As their systems fail they’ll let the hammer fall
And break on the breadline
Resist
Their phony culture wars sponsored by corporate whores
Take control of your own mind
Take control of your own mind
You are no enemy of mine
Now is our time
To pay them back
For our stolen lives
Take control
So tear control
From their cold dead hands
Fire and forget to reclaim humanity
At the end of the world
The earth gives way
But black flags remain
Through the rise and the fall
Holding on to the edge at the end of it all
We find our grip
As the old world slips away
