No Hope But Pride

Your word is not the word of God
And you are above no man
Now take a look at what you've done
You will return to destroy again
Behold
Take Flight
Be gone with the night
I'm sick of your suffering becoming my plight
You made this choice, now live with yourself
You are the one who's created this hell
And now you bring the whole world down
So we're all as low as you
And yet your head's held high so proud
Build up your walls to block out the truth
And now there is no hope but pride
A broken man who is on his own
And that's the way that you will die
Fading out like the saddest song
You fool, your pride
When will it die?
I'm sick of you feeding me ego filled lies
I can't lift burdens that you've place on yourself
If you seek to be empty you can't be fulfilled

Subhuman Waste

Bow to the queen of hate and artifice
Born to rule over this kingdom of lies
Cherished and coddled and spoiled since birth
Shining as gold, worthless as dirt
A whore and a harlot you're Satan's own kin
A walking temptation a visual sin
Earn your damnation you cowardly soul
So fucking worthless a sight to behold
You'll pay for what you've done
You'll burn for who you are
I can not begin to tell
How you can live with yourself
I hope only horrors await
You vile subhuman waste
Your knight on his horse high will lead you to death
And I hope that you choke on your dying breath
Fate gave you chances you spat in its face
There's no forgiveness for it's far too late
I hope that your guilt eats you inside
Claws at your conscious until your soul dies
Put on your false face and act as your pure
And endless facade no one should endure
For too long its been the same
Fed on the rats beneath your lay
But when the snake is blamed for plague
There'll be no help from society

The Elephant's Foot

I tire of this lonesome ground
Sunsoaked, devoid of sound
My thoughts now eat at me
I long to cease to be
I've punished all of man
To rid this earth of sin
Coward, don't beg to me
I'll show you no mercy
I am not the one who's dragged you down
Throw that blame back on yourself
Don't speak ill of those who've held their toungues
They'll be saved when salvation comes
God grant my penance and end my existence
Lucifer take me, at least hell won't be empty
Salvation never comes
I scream but am not heard
Silence swallows my words
I die but not in vain
God I can not be saved

Phoenix

I stare into your lifeless eyes
And I can feel your pain
It's not the end, please know my friend
That I have felt the same
Done with life, each day a fight
You feel you'll never mend
Stand up tall, stronger than all
Don't accept the end
You know that you've been here before
As your phoenix rises up from the flames
Of all the demons you've burned and replaced
Spread your new wings and you'll
Fly, be free, follow me
A life without this agony
You can learn to live on with out this pain
God, your silence screams so loud
I need to hear you say
I am alive, I will survive, I will defeat this day
Just like you've beaten it before
As your phoenix rises up from the flames
Of all the demons you've burned and replaced
As your phoenix rises up from the flames
Spread broken wings and you'll fly
Away
You'll win this godforsaken war
As your phoenix rises up from the flames
of all the demons you've burned and replaced
As your phoenix rises up from the flames
Spread broken wings and you'll fly
And the phoenix will rise
From the fire in your eyes (o)

Wretched Gift of Life
06:10

|

The flames of discontent
Have begun to burden me
I now stand convinced
I have wronged my destiny
Desire not undone
For the hopes that I dream of
Will come to pass and be
The only reason that
When my time has come
All that I have done
Won't fade with time
The Wretched Gift of Life
Is running out of time
I can't waste this one chance
The Wretched Gift of Life
I yearn to make it mine
And set me free
And should I be proud of the man that I've become?
Or should I be ashamed I've come so close to giving up?
And how can I believe
That in this world of dreams
Mine's the only one that can't be achieved?
That idiocracy is choosing to believe that I wont fail?
