Rise of the One -
The Dark Iconoclast Forging a cult of fear, With legions unsurpassed Shouting the word - With vicious tongues of fire Born of illusion and deceit, Fiendish soul of a liar. The chaos unseen rips The midnight sky Infernal machines arise - Flesh and steel collide CHORUS We are strong We will stand and fight We are strong We will stand and fight With rage we ride into the flames Striking with Spears of Hate, At the heart where evil reigns Holding the line from the charge Of armored steeds Gather around this deadly ground, Come watch the War God bleed. The chaos unseen rips The midnight sky Infernal machines arise - Flesh and steel collide REPEAT CHORUS Victory or death, only time will tell Synthetic resurrection, From the heart of hell Slowly they fall, as we watch The daylight die We spit and curse this hallowed earth With our final Battle Cry. The chaos unseen rips The midnight sky Infernal machines arise - Flesh and steel collide REPEAT CHORUS |

to moonn6pence from papayeverte
Bite your tongue The blackened sun Will curse the moon Skies of fire Nothing's worth a damn Calculate Anticipate Your every move Beware The ruthless hearts of man Feel my pain My words are in vain I believe it's the end of innocence Don't look away Oh, hear what I say I believe it's the end of innocence Cut and splice a fierce device Degenerate Sons of light Synthetic gods, our man Crushed beneath The dragon beast Breathing hate Your blood Your blood is on their hands Feel my pain My words are in vain I believe it's the end of innocence Don't look away Oh, hear what I say I believe it's the end of innocence The world is dying The precious sands of time Are running out We are the fallen Made obsolete Methodically phased out ...Feel my pain Feel my pain My words are in vain I believe it's the end of innocence Don't look away Oh, hear what I say I believe it's the end of innocence |

Tap the vein - inject my brain
And let the poison flow Torn apart - you're ripping out my heart It's painless, let it go Hit the switch - you son of a bitch I'm devoured, broke in two You take control and resurrect my soul Becoming something new... What's done is done - I'm dead inside I'm what you've all become - mindless and mesmerized Dehumanized I'm dehumanized Don't you realize - I'm Dehumanized Oh, and Victimized You can't break me, You unmake me - Dehumanized Ripped to shreds - the venom spreads Release the system plague Shed your skin - electrified within Complete the final stage I will break my shell and unleash Hell There's nothing you can do Just a cut above - this sacred New Blood Becoming something new... What's done is done - I'm dead inside I'm what you've all become - mindless and mesmerized Dehumanized I'm Dehumanized Don't you realize - I'm Dehumanized Oh, and Victimized You can't break me, You unmake me - Dehumanized Is this life worth the question why? Or is this life just a lie? 'Cause my eyes are cold and numb, And I don't know what the hell I've become... Dehumanized I'm Dehumanized Don't you realize - We're all dehumanized Enslaved and Victimized You can't break us, No, you can't unmake us We have all become - Dehumanized |

You can be all you desire
An honest man - a vicious liar Seek out the Light or seek the Dark You can honor or desecrate Sympathize or manipulate Carved in your flesh - embrace the Mark Enslaved and hypnotized - Chained to artificial lives You are the Bastards of the Machine The Bastards of the Machine Be a saint for those in need Or spin them webs of lust and greed. Yeah, you've restored my dying faith With a Kiss of Death - a last farewell Hand in hand, through the Gates of Hell You'll pay the price for the choice you make I see your demons rise - Deep within your burning eyes You are the Bastards of the Machine The Bastards of the Machine The Bastards of the Machine The Bastards of the Machine |

The human infection
Soaring on winds of woe and pestilence Remove imperfection - Parasites with lives of little consequence. Even though we know the sky is falling Still we choose not to believe, On your knees... Heretic - devil in disguise Never quit - tearing down the walls, brick by brick Feeding on the lies - Heretic Counterfeit's the kingdom you devise The flesh breeds corruption - Irradicate the insect prey, exterminate Crawl with the Leeches - you cry Shattered to pieces - you die Here I stand - god of man - the Perfect Beast Even though we know the sky is falling Still we choose not to believe On your knees... Heretic - devil in disguise Never quit - tearing down the walls, brick by brick Feeding on the lies - Heretic Counterfeit's the kingdom you devise Watch me burn - Live and learn As the night surrounds me No escape, no where to hide Feel the sting of severing Become one with Darkness No escape, I'm dead inside Heretic - devil in disguise Never quit - tearing down the walls, Brick by brick Feeding on the lies - Heretic Counterfeit's the kingdom you devise |

Screaming at the walls around me -
Broken and alone Fighting with my inner demons is all I've ever known All I am - I give to you All my dreams and nightmares, too Disconnected life of anguish - The mirror fades to black Feels like I'm sinking deep into illusion. No one's staring back Somewhere unseen - there's something between Is it the truth or a lie... CHORUS Can't you see - You and me We're Children of a Faceless God Misery is our destiny We're Children of a Faceless God Just another faceless shadow - I'm desensitized And I don't feel the pain, am I insane? My nightmare's realized Somewhere unseen - there's something between Is it the truth or a lie... REPEAT CHORUS All I have - I give to you All my dreams, my nightmares, too Wretched promenade - watch the freak parade Celebrate the suffering and affliction Laugh at tragedy - worship sin with me Let us share in selfish addiction Spitting on the shrine - drink the poison wine Leave a life in ruins - tattered and torn Completely interfaced to a God without a Face In his image of darkness... I'm reborn REPEAT CHORUS |

I believe... Nothing ever comes to light -
Chasing shadows in the night In a starless sky and I wonder why I believe...We will never find a way - That darkness lights the day We never question why, still I wonder why? I close my eyes lost in a memory Just like a candle in the wind What could have been, with just one kiss goodbye You spread your wings to fly Far away, somehow, someday you will understand I hope you'll understand... someday Silent pictures speak like ghosts in the machine Haunting my reflection in the frame Chasing down the hopeful child inside of me Where'd it all go wrong and who's to blame We pass the time away With empty lives, the laughter dies CHORUS Is this all we have to show? Is this all they'll ever know? Can they find their way? What went wrong? Where have all the heroes gone? Trading futures for a song we gave away Thinking only of myself, I forged ahead No regrets, no apologies Bitter tears reward the life that I have led A world of lies brings me to my knees I took the road with every twist and every turn The words of wisdom is the lesson never learned Lose your fear and free your soul or The mysteries of life you'll truly never know REPEAT CHORUS I close my eyes, lost in that memory Like a candle in the wind What could have been, with just one kiss goodbye You spread your wings to fly far away I hope you'll understand one day REPEAT CHORUS What went wrong? Where have all our heroes gone? Trade our future for a song, We gave it all away... |

You liberate me, separate and set me free
You release my spirit to the wind For evermore your name will soar inside of me Let the reign of steel begin Oh, how the prophets of the people were so blind As one by one, all the kingdoms fall in line Hail the Night - the Bringer of Light My Electric Messiah Come and be transformed - unmade and reborn Set your soul on fire All will believe, you won't deceive in any way Endless empty minds at you command I'll never fail, I'll drive the nail in all the way Right into you heart with dying hands Oh, how the prophets of the people were so blind As one by one, all the kingdoms fall in line Hail the Night - the Bringer of Light My Electric Messiah Come and be transformed - unmade and reborn Set your soul on fire Hail the Night - the Bringer of Light My Electric Messiah Come and be transformed - unmade and reborn Set your soul on fire |

Have you lost all your senses?
Why did you have to go tempting fate? Blinded by your ambitions Why can't you see the chaos you create? Oh - have we gone too far, too fast? My dying eyes - scream with pain All my hopes and my dreams drown in flames And all the Lies - shine so bright All the souls of the world Light up the Night You're a slave to desire For lust of profit you consume my soul Do you think you can make it stop? Oh no - it's too late to turn, you've lost control Oh - have we gone too far too fast? My dying eyes - scream with pain All my hopes and my dreams drown in flames And all the Lies - shine so bright All the souls of the world Light up the Night Pushing the boundaries - reinvent a new reality Changing Evolution - ignoring the past As we realize our destructive destiny... My dying eyes - scream with pain All my hopes and my dreams drown in flames And all the Lies - shine so bright All the souls of the world Light up the Night |

Right before your eyes, you've always known See the truth inside yourself, See the world like no one else If only you were king, you could change everything Can't you see what they're doing to you and me? We rule - We fly Above the lights of the neon sky We fight - We cry The Lords of Chaos will never die All you see must be destroyed Your destiny. you can't avoid Show them all your demon sign, Tell them all to get in line Oh, there's no time to waste, It's poison but they can't taste it Don't you see what they're doing to you and me? We rule - We fly Above the lights of the neon sky We fight - We cry The Lords of Chaos will never die The quick and the dead Moving fast, they're in your head Infection spreads in the blood of the damned The truth and the lies It's all the same - it's just a game you see Day and night, you hold them in your hands... Can't you see what they're doing to you and me? We rule - We fly Above the lights of the neon sky We fight - We cry The Lords of Chaos will never die We rule - We fly Above the lights of the neon sky We fight - We cry The Lords of Chaos will never ever die |

Scorn the Omen - Architects of Deceit
Pulverized within the Jaws of Defeat Our ruin engineered, we've reached the Gates of Fear Forging vengeance in the City of Doom Ripping Death from Sin's unholy womb The riders on the storm, cursed the day they're born We were warned... Strike them down - Strike with power Kill them all from shore to shore We destroy - We devour We command the vicious Dogs of War Treads of Iron crush the skulls of the damned Stench of burning flesh covers the land Rising from the screams - a godless War Machine Execution - Fire scorches the Sky Crimson Horsemen runs with Genocide As the Seas turns Red, we raise the Living Dead Or so it's said... Strike them down - Strike with power Kill them all from shore to shore We destroy - We devour We command the vicious Dogs of War CHORUS Bow your heads and abandon hope We're the Gods of Pain Raise your hands if you'll join with us And let the madness reign Forsaken and forgotten Condemned - hopeless and alone The sickened and the rotten Infect everything you've ever known War hammer of disaster Crushing every living head Surrender to the masters The brainwashed Electric Living Dead There's no escaping The more I learn, the less I know I must be crazy I'm giving in, I'm letting go If all the world's a stage, It's just a masquerade of crazies Hit the lights and start the show... REPEAT CHORUS |
