Fools that march to war De- or ex-pendable poor All to die in vain Tricked to fix your life of pain So we're lost again (lost with the age) Stillborn to go and kill like before Life is just a burning page and you know You know Or you'll know So faiths given freedom its wings Own to fly above the maze Take us with your nowhere prayers Take us where there's nothing there So we're lost again (lost with the age) Stillborn to go and kill like before Life is just a burning page and you know

Free falling, recoil in dreams Can our love breathe while it sleeps? We'd see heavens fall into the sea Can't believe all madness into beauty Till we run on to be gutted It's blunt steel cuts you open Rustic alchemy reachs for the edge Destined to cut through this veil again Well calculate this mystic risk my friend When all we see now is our own descent Your descent Where there's no innocence In all that we said Is this life holding sand? Hey! Slay down your lives and I'll raise you hell The currency's sin why can't we tell? The white horse is flogged in their house of god The walls must come down till the unknown's now You're gutted! The steel that's blunt yet cuts you clean open! Your paean to the night! You're gutted! Steels blunt still cuts you! Clean open! You're beying to the dying! Trust for lust dissatisfing reverence See the gravity defy your arguments God's under attack and all your bullets are spent Yes who's sent you? Run to the knife again? Run! You'll run them (x3) To the knife You run them (x3) To the knife. You'll run to (x3) The knife You'll run to (x3) The knife You're gutted with steel that's blunt that cuts you clean open. You're beying to the dying! And all the wrong you have done it's blood spills from your heart. All the wrong that you have done it's blood spills from your heart. All the wrong you have done it's blood spills from your heart. Let it's blood spill from your heart Let it's blood spill from your heart now It's blood! You are done!

Hearkened by dark fiends to abide Torture the times we walk through fire High and flying no hope no fear Paid all dues and shed all my tears No laws can tame this crowd Bare no pain this heathen reign Cause we have been blessed insane Noose let loose you belong to the night Long this doors been bleeding light Outside a storm intensifies Rain will soak our clouded minds No law can tame this crowd Bare no pain this heathen reign Cause we have been blessed insane When your hell decides a conscious liar Send the poets word to lay down and die By all your own worst worlds that taint by fire May the ascension raise you from this mire So long (x3) No laws (x3) No laws can tame this crown Bares no pain this heathen reign Cause we have been blessed insane

Acid Dice 04:57
Fallen fall out Laughin freak out! Incinerated minds Wanton greed ignited Porous with tears of pride Dreamt us breathing fire Gone is the circus scowl Preachers that show them how! Seeking court you were the acid dice Adopting masks for hate The eyes scrutinise inviting spite The secret court threw up The acid dice Tell or sell what you know? Then greet the violence So loathe and behold curse the uninvited Thrones fear the servant now Purge them erst thou! Seeking court, you are the acid dice Hunting masks for hate The eyes that scrutinise inviting spite Secret court you are The acid dice Behold the acid dice Not content with how times tick Only a reapers got your fix Investment in the contest meant You will serve beyond the sick The acid dice Corroded and loaded If living is evil and I love this evil... If living is evil and I love this evil... If living is evil it's good enough for me

The whispered atrocity A mourning to be seen A vision apocalypse Desolate and serene Ghosts filter truth Light up can't you tell? What's on the bright side? Bright side of hell The bright side of hell Oblivions switch Death smiling tthrough the tears To know what is rich And uncorrupted by your fears Mote on the eye Oh lord can't you tell? What's on the bright side? Bright side of hell The bright side of hell Whispers soon will speak Of pure equanimity Like caution sown to the wind The phoenix spreads it's wings Spread it's wings like honesty In no sense they want to take you away Why is this? always the way Innocence This innocence

The Pale 05:07
Dwell For this is the pale Envisage the division Civilised or demonised We forsee this territory As foothold for enemy eyes So build For this is the pale Fraught culture survival It's torn out of a savage mind Sent by crown to keep you down And subserviant to our kind So go put up your defenses and Let the ditch protect our land For this voice is your only choice While the pale is our command Our command Build For this is the pale Conspiracies doomed dynasties Even this anglo native has gone to seed Suffer powers to be any other side To survive any wrong for right Suffer powers be any other side To survive any wrong for right To this day the silent cry Spat the idiom to chastise Embroiled with instilled pride To be beyond the pale until we die
