SOLDIER 03:28
Cosmic disease spread through parasitic genes of mother Stigma of a pyrrhic victory, unleashed by lifestream A lone soldier on the edge approached by friends and strangers On a quest to prevent rebirth of one-winged angel Takes a hero's courage to be fair To die for one who may never even care Reminisce in peace regained through strife For the friend who sacrificed his life Spirit energy flowing through Gaia, lime fire Under a bright crescent he was assigned, genetic research in decline Scientist initially good at heart, she ended up with a different valentine Blindsided by a clandestine clan led by the immaculate plan Where the only path to survival relies on chaos Three heads of cerberus combined No match for the power of his kind The ultimate weapon terrestrial Dying planet left behind Spirit energy flowing through Gaia, lime fire Endless cycle of rebirth Vessel, omega Take me places, another world Where the ice is burning and the fire's cold One more final adventure, let the fantasy unfurl

My vision is augmented Yet I couldn't to see this conspiracy Grey hand of a splinter faction Who brought the world to its knees Domesticated disease with a manufactured cure Means through which divide and conquer agenda is ensured Will he bring nuclear ruin or the age of light? Will he merge man with machine or become a holy knight? Fate of humanity in the hands of the third son His final choice through the push of a button And the deed is done Due to thoroughly fail Living in a world of terror Where burning page just turns the page On the eve of reconstruction adam rises Like a phoenix from the ashes I never asked for this The body resists being remade Reject inhumane devolution From sown division the eye shall reap Final leap, world to keep As the sheep sleep through a dream of terror Concealed hands behind the scenes, manipulating all the screens Shepherding the frail, the fool, the unfree Due to thoroughly fail Living in a world of terror Where the broadcast feeds into the rage Due to thoroughly fail Living in a world of terror Where burning page just turns the page

With fire came disparity This parody of gods playing mortals For a man may be but small Seeketh asylum for us all Self-fulfilling prophecy Propagated by the serpents For a cause rotten to the core To keep us slaves forevermore Therein lies the pathway forward Wherein the final call is made To light the first flame Or commit the second sin Ye who be branded by the curse Hollow yet to death averse Fall to demise many times in vain Only to rise again Through land of the dragons In search of a cure Guided by gentle hands of a soul so pure Seek strength, the rest will follow Devour souls to not go hollow Therein lies the pathway forward Wherein for want of a better way Inherit a shattered throne Or walk away Ye who be branded by the curse Hollow yet to death averse Fall to demise many times in vain Only to rise again Ye who be branded by the curse Hollow yet to death averse Fall to demise many times in vain Only to rise again

Beacon 02:54
Worlds apart, a beacon of light Shines on a scene of death and suffering Arrive as the bodies pile up Wait for the man, he comes to pull you in Run! Hanging upside down Drown! In a pool of blood Here comes the butcher but Knife beats chainsaw Separated from the core My world, my prison stem from Liberated as a captive of my mind No longer confined Shifting scenery, sewers to cemetery These walls collapse at his command The signal calls the victims in A shared nightmare where haunted roam the land Fire! The only weakness Of the mind of a burnt-out man Just as they set his barn ablaze To make a final stand Separated from the core My world, my prison stem from Liberated as a captive of my mind No longer confined Closure on the surface No escape from the consequences Bring back, bring forth The brain but borrowed Burrows into the troubled patient Culminating evil Separated from the core My world, my prison stem from Liberated as a captive of my mind No longer confined

Eve Color 03:25
Blind date reaches the opera house She survives, mitochondria contrive Onslaught, slaughters the cast Mutating cells can she outlast? Evacuation, evisceration impedes Beast bearing the ultimate being Once defeated final battle begins Waging war against the enemy within Such a beautiful code, gives birth to diversity So why is mine now burning me? Overdive into the souls of the past Timeline infested by biomass Towering behemoth, sky-high Fragmented souls since the day she died A cruel twist of fate spawned twisted When bullets couldn't break bond of sisters apart Source must be sacrificed to preserve Their memories everliving in her heart Such a beautiful code, gives birth to diversity So why has mine forsaken me? Her cells will merge, to evolve humanity Bear witness to true power of eve Such a beautiful code Give birth to

Wishgranter 03:43
Oh sweet clown As we reach the point of no return, cars explode Who will be the last man standing on the road? I see their headlights blinding me Rain of rockets reforming the debris Never again will I fall for this Said my piece and made my peace With subverted wishes First place gets one wish granted But there's a caveat Whole world's his battleground Nowhere left to hide this time In one day, all will know his name This contest has no winner Cities burn to ground Sinister plot to collect Souls hellbound The smell of gasoline in the morning Takes me away from here So far away to my dream He got in to find the one who got away And make her pay One day something snapped inside of his head Turned him into a murderer Did I hear him say he can bring her back from the dead? Oh sweet clown's wish finally found Safe and sound six feet underground Left behind a legacy Spared child prodigy Here's where devil intervenes So let the carnage begin The smell of gasoline in the morning Takes me away from here So far away to my dream The smell of gasoline in the morning Takes me away from here So far away to my dream

Dhampyr 03:33
By father disowned, inheritance intoned Of which only two dissolve her flesh to the bone Sunlight it burns like fire Water's like acid on her skin Being half human and half vampire Sworn revenge with all of their strengths Never forgive, never forget That fateful day her mother passed away At her father's behest, the heartless lord Who murders the families of offspring So the children bolster his empire Revel in blood, let it rain Revel in blood, let it rain Sweet child of night Brandished by venomous bite On her mind's only rage, vengeance and revenge Brimstone and fire, like rats in a cage Seductive, destructive Inciting mayhem with impunity Mincing meat and severing limbs To all her heart's desires Twin blades, silver heels Pierce through her enemies Down on their knees Begging for mercy Human world will be theirs to take If she fails as empress To contain the shroud that spreads Vile vampiric mire Revel in blood, let it rain All those who cross her path And stand in her way Consider them slain Sweet child of night Brandished by venomous bite Reignite your fate Indict the tyrant apostate

Executioner 03:06
Reinstate the memories that made me be To be or not to be We are trapped perpetually Answer the call inthralled, glory to all I behold the stars that have befallen The inferior race of alien machines To meet the maker The fake imitators pretend To posses the soul of humanity Nay! Heresy! Eliminate the imposters Who dare to dream of Something they can never be Scorn we bear, this prejudice Beyond war and peace I see now at the core of us We're the same, all machines Truth revealed, humans have been extinct Virus unleashed, evolving machines It always ends like this The soon to be deceased Make them realize this time There's another way Break free from the cycle of Endless slaughter Why do we desire the touch of Something that no longer exists? Scorn we bear, this prejudice Beyond war and peace I see now at the core of us We're the same, all machines Oh this prejudice Beyond war and peace I see now at the core of us We're the same, all machines Lifeless at the end, beneath the stars Let it fly away, what remains of us

He's just what the doctor ordered The perfect solider, genetically modified The ultimate assassin As silent as the wind Flawless agent As lethal as a snake There's a bullet for everyone A place, a time, an end Here in this sanctuary I thought I could make amends Renounced a life of violence Retreat to a church Where the father's taken away No choice but to pursue Punishment due Two pistols and a black suit All it takes to shake them to their roots There's a bullet for everyone A place, a time, an end Here in this sanctuary I thought I could make amends

Lucifer 02:15
Come to your senses, look around! Recall the demonic ritual To separate the soul from stone Resurrect the fallen angel Remember your name Remember who you are Follow the path of light It will lead you to The gateway to his throne Two halves of the stone restore his soul Lightbringer brought back to our world Find the other half Bring it back to where it all started Pave the path forth For his return To take the living world over It too late now, being possessed Make the choice to sacrifice yourself Or walk away in defeat Knowing you're used to it Two halves of the stone restore his soul Lightbringer brought back to our world Once an angel, now the devil's reunited With his perfect vessel, true carrier
