Nuked To Ashes
01:55
|

Last act in this forgotten play
Forewarned, the plot twist clear as day
Come fire, bring death
Come feel the stench of God’s breath
This outcome, foreshadowed
Mankind was meant to die
Stage prop, this weapon on the wall
It’s role, to bring the curtain’s fall
Come fire, bring death
Come feel the stench of God’s breath
This outcome, foreshadowed
Mankind was meant to die
Now, gun taken down from this wall
Blatant, foreshadow of use since Act I
Weapon, now turned upon patrons and cast
Mankind, is taken from applause to ash
Mankind, its own playwright destroyed
Come fire, bring death
Come fell God’s breath

Hoist Upon Canard
01:42
|
|||
Debased banner raised
Proudly to display
The clout of your beliefs
And depths of your conceit
Now raise this flag up high
Display said party lines
A stacked deck of marked cards
Hoist upon canard
Doctrine
Gospel of distortion
Now raise this flag up high
Display said party lines
A stacked deck of marked cards
Hoist upon canard

Malignant Memory Hole
02:52
|
|||
Rotting
Hole in your sub-consciousness
Annuls what sense that you have left
Knowledge and reason are suppressed
No longer cognitive
Just digest what you are to believe
All that erudition impedes
Out this abscess logic bleeds
Your mind, controlled and diseased
Decomposed correlation
An ulcer of disremembered facts
Excretion of reason
Drained postulated data
Comprises your thought pattern
Insight suppressed
Latent brain death
Rotting from the outside in
Absorbed, erased
Cancerous intellect
Absorbed, erased
Eroded discernment
Absorbed, erased
Absorbed, erased
Infectious rationale
Absorbed erased
A wasteland beyond your expressionless face
Flushed down a blackened memory hole

Cleaved To Sorrow
01:31
|
|||
Split and severed
Broken spirit, a split end of one too many hairs
Never one, always torn
Contrasted halves, conflicting whole
Adverse parts of this disparate soul
Pieced together
Adversely joined
Ripped asunder
Division is mourned
Cleaved to sorrow
Divergent self, forever desolate

Teleprompted Apocalypse
02:38
|
|||
Scripted injunction of mankind’s demise
Blissfully recount the news
Contented sleepwalk to global collapse
Narrated clearly though dogmatic views
Rose colored outlook tinted with blood
So blithely unconcerned
Blest and joyous our futures will be
Just blindly accept what not to believe
Cede
Concede, accept your fate
This torpid hell awaits
Listen to portents cautiously screened
Narration for mass appeal
An optimist’s view of pessimist themes
Falsified vision, completely unreal
Now your will abates
Towards apocalypse race
Race towards death
Lines
Teleprompted lines
Read by frightened eyes
Teleprompted lies
Lies of our demise

Serial Mendacity
02:45
|
|||
Amassed untruths and doublespeaks
Confront facts by impeding the truth
Debauched reality serves your needs
Appetence for power, immeasurable greed
Elected position by those you oppress
Their terrorized fervor is knowledge suppressed
More false your pretensions, the less we complain
Detractors are heretics, scapegoats to blame
Lies as truth, subterfuge
Those devout, most abused
Lies, falsified vision
Lies, imposturous hope
Lies, blind submission
Lies, forlorn hope
Lies
Lies, from lies your reason derived
Surreal now is our lives
An unwitting zealot cabal
Procures the enslavement of all
A cancerous, delusive world derived from self imposed constraint
Coerced through thinly bearded, corrupt games
Confounded and subdued until our will to resist is gone
Misspeak, misstate and machinate
Slander, deceive, defamate
Through this, our world, you fabricate
Become now worshipped and obeyed
