The search to find a way
To live in the modern day
With only yesterday’s pay
Austerity reigns
With no fear they hold the line
in blood depicted as a catalyst
For destruction and social unrest
Now is the time
…
Back against the wall
Our instincts take hold
This world of prejudice
The kingdom of hypocrites
…
High street stores filled with slaves
Crippled by debt and under paid
Disillusioned day-to-day
Gutter lock is the only way
We are only strong as our weakest link
With no teeth left to spit
See past the lies in the headlines
A sign if the times
…
Back against the wall
Our instincts take hold
Plant the seed of hate/despair
Watch it flourish in their streets
…
As the fires grow…
The fear sinks in…
Why has it come to this
Destroying our own self-worth
…
As the fires grow…
The fear sinks in…
Why has it come to this
This civil unrest
…
We have failed them
We have regressed
Betraying what they bled for
What they fucking deserve
…
As the fires grow
The fear sinks in
Why has it come to this
This Civil unrest
…
The search to find a way
To live in the modern day
With only yesterday’s pay
Austerity reigns
With no fear they hold the line
In blood depicted as a catalyst
For destruction and social unrest
Now is the time
…
Back against the wall
Our instincts take hold
This world of prejudice
The kingdom of hypocrites
As the fires grow
The fear sinks in
How has it come to this
Devouring our lives

Your ignorance is absolute
Festering dreams of a coward
Your bliss, our burden
Self-righteous propaganda
We’re all drowning
In a sea of a bullshit
Toxic, Diseased
…
This new disease, is a social trend
With hate filled gestures and misplaced pride
All the hate you spew
Swallow it whole
Choked and suffocated
The ignorance of a fool
…
You play the race card
But you’re the racist
You know nothing about discrimination
Your hypocrisy knows no bounds
Its plane to see
It’s clear you’re a fascist
Dickhead, Faceless
…
This new disease, is a social trend
With hate filled gestures and misplaced pride
All the hate you spew
Swallow it whole
Choked and suffocated
The ignorance of a fool
…
You are not the victim
You are not a Patriot
You are not immolated
You are not a Patriot
Stop breathing

Weakened Resolve
Into a Decadent Tract
A Desolated Sanctuary
Consumed by waste
Eating away at life
Deter the price of progress
…
Desolate
Societies
Colony of decay
spewing violence
The savagery
Simulating this humanity
…
Depiction of humanity
To strike down the hand that’s feeding
Disdain towards the ones who sow the seed
…
Desolate
Societies
Colony of decay
Spewing violence
The savagery
…
Simulating this humanity
…
Spewing forth the abuse
Your benefacted silence
The architects of this
Ruination
The architects of shit
…
Desolate
Societies
Colony of decay
spewing forth
Your progeny
Simulating this humanity
…
Architects of our own delusion
Stoking the fires that burn
Beating
Breaking
Destroying us all
The Architects
Architects of shit
Architects of our own delusion

AWAKEN THE MIND
TO A WORLDS SO VISCERAL
BREEDING THE URGE TO DENY
WHEN SENSES ELAPSE TO THE BLIND
…
SO WRETCHED IN SPITE
FOR THOSE IN SUPPORT OF THEIR PLIGHT
THE WISH TO CONTROL
DE STRUCTURED, LOSS OF THEM ALL
…
AWAKEN THE MIND
…
THEIR OBSESSIVE THOUGHTS
CONTORTED VIEWS OF ABSOLUTION
INDOCTRINATE THOUGHTS OF POISON
NOW NUMB TO THE TOUCH
AND SILENCED FOR WORDS
LAY DORMANT THEIR CONTROL
…
ELECT TO CHAOS
TRUST CONSUMED
BREEDING A THOUGHT
A SOCIETY TORN
DRIVEN BY HATRED
NOW BROKEN THE SOIL
CAST INTO DOUBT BY DENIAL OF THE CAUSE
…
SOCIETY TORN
THEIR CONTROL BROKEN
ABSOLUTION
…
PROSTHETIC WORDS
DESIGNED TO IGNITE THE FUELS
THIS MALICE GROWS
TO PROTECT THEIR OWN PREJUDICE
…
ELECT TO CHAOS
TRUST CONSUMED
BREEDING A THOUGHT
A SOCIETY TORN
DRIVEN BY HATRED
NOW BROKEN THE SOIL
CAST INTO DOUBT BY DENIAL OF THE CAUSE

Intent, to make a change
Elevate your social state
Show your human, show you care,
You donate in exchange
Never question the cause
and its means
What suffers and dies
to fulfil your needs
…
What price would you pay
To stop their suffering
Would you trade places to take the pain away
…
Funding
on a global scale
Hides the machine that must feed
every day
Promote and engage
Show your faith
Become the role model for greed
and popularity…
…
Stop their suffering
Take their pain away
…
No cure is wanted
No margin can be made
Out of sight and out of mind
Ever present in the public’s hearts and minds
…
Look closer and you will see
This problem is not the disease
An Illness to subdue
and enslave
Guilt tripped to give a shit
A noble cause disgraced
Hijack by the vain
We are all to blame
…
Break this cycle
That has no meaning,
No conscious thought
An ethical minefield
That was masked from the start

Embrace this dark era
Sustain through strife
Surpass the contradictions
Our Dissidents
Survive the decadence
Embrace this dark era
Our dark era
Embrace
