Album Lyrics
1. Dialectic Chaos
(Instrumental)
2. This Day We Fight!
For this I was chosen because I fear nothing
With confidence I tread through the dead of the night
Off to another war torn faraway battlefield
Wherein lies a demonic enemy horde
On this day I decide to anoint my fist
Engaging them in the mode of power and war
Stopping at nothing that’s short of fulfilling my destiny
Willing to die and I will, after you for what I believe
A desperate avenger is striking fear in their hearts
Invading their dreams before the day even starts
Wet with your blood I sharpen my sword, no turning the other cheek like a coward
Come tomorrow I may lay down and die, but not this day
Sent on an unholy quest to reduce all those who resist
To the size of their shriveled up souls and scatter them like grist
I Vanquished the strangleholds that the netherworld sets for me
The last request of my life is to die killing my enemies
Bathed in blood up to the horses bridle
It’s death to retreat, there’s no chance of survival
Wet with your blood I sharpen my sword, no turning the other cheek like a coward
Come tomorrow I may lay down and die, but not this day
This day we fight (this day we fight)
This day we fight
Strip the fallen heroes,finish off the wounded
Collect the spoils of war and send them their dead
This day we fight
This day we fight
Fight, fight, this day we fight
Fight, fight, fight, this day I fight
3. 44 Minutes
It was a cool winter’s morning, somewhere shortly past 9:00 AM
The armored car they wanted to heist wasn’t coming so instead they went for the bank
The fateful duo that sat in the get-away car, heavily sedated with thousands of rounds
Armor piercing, fully automatic weapons, the bowls of wrath poured on the ground
Baptized in a firefight, hot blood running cold as ice
44 minutes of target practice, all hell’s breaking loose
Outgunned, watching “The Force” come to a firefight with a pocketknife
Getting schooled until they shot Achilles’ heel and brought down the beast
This was an accident waiting to happen, it wasn’t if it would happen, it was when
The city’s people sabotaged themselves calling their firepower an unneeded expense
The two most violent men it seemed couldn’t be stopped, standard police issue guns were just not enough
But SWAT arrived and settled the fight between AK-47 and AR-15
Baptized in a firefight, hot blood running cold as ice
44 minutes of target practice, all hell’s breaking loose
Outgunned, watching “The Force” come to a firefight with a pocketknife
Getting schooled until they shot Achilles’ heel and brought down the beast
Baptized in a firefight, hot blood running cold as ice
44 minutes of target practice, all hell’s breaking loose
Outgunned, watching “The Force” come to a firefight with a pocketknife
Getting schooled until they shot Achilles’ heel and brought down the beast
4. 1,320′
Grinding my teeth, white knuckles grasp at the wheel
I rush from an avalanche of adrenaline, it’s all that I feel
As quick as a bolt of lightning, a rocket ride in a bucket seat
It doesn’t get any better than this, it just feeds my need for speed
Supercharged, strapped in and screaming, fire spiting from the pipes
A burnout by the flame throwing fury, 8,000 horses ignite
Full throttle, hit the ground running with a tank full of nitro
And it’s 1320 to go to the finish line
My hands hold tight, a fire breathing stampede
I fall into a trance, hold my breath till the light turns green
In a cloud of nitro methane, melting rubber, I say my prayers
Man and machine accelerate and I vanish in thin air
Supercharged, strapped in and screaming, fire spiting from the pipes
A burnout by the flame throwing fury, 8,000 horses ignite
Full throttle, hit the ground running with a tank full of nitro
And it’s 1320 to go to the finish line
5. Bite the Hand
They ball gagged Lady Justice and blindfolded her so she can’t see
The erosion of the people’s trust of what will come to be an FDIC assisted suicide
The depression of a depression, worldwide suicide for the economy
Caused by the dialectic chaos when the mob on Wall Street took we the people for a ride
When it’s dog eat dog, you are what you eat
Just like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds
(Like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds)
Just like the mad dog that bites that hand that feeds
They took everything and anything as long as it once belonged to me
The rats got all the money, the roaches licked the cupboards clean of TV dinners and beer
This never ending nightmare of the dreams I’ll never ever get to see
And just one silver bullet to your head, it will set me free from all the life I wasted trusting you
When it’s dog eat dog, you are what you eat
Just like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds
(Like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds)
When it’s dog eat dog, you are what you eat
(Just like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds)
Just like the mad dog, you bite the hand that feeds
6. Bodies
This thing called life goes by so quickly
One day you’re here and then you’re gone
This is the moment I’ve lived my whole life for
And I’ll never give up, I’ve waited too long
I’ve waited, waited too long
I’ve waited too long
And all along the road
All the bodies left behind
May all have been good friends
Just not good friends of mine
I’ve been kicked out and said, “I quit”
Then I said, “I had enough and this is it”
All I wanted was just one more show for the road
‘Cause it was over last time before I could blink, I could blink
I’ve waited, waited too long
I’ve waited too long
And all along the road
All the bodies left behind
May all have been good friends
Just not good friends of mine
Their bodies left behind
7. Endgame
“Attention, attention, all citizens are ordered to report to their district detention centers
Do not return to your homes, do not contact anyone, do not use any cellular or GPS devices
Surrender all weapons at once, attention, this way to the camps”
I woke up in a black FEMA box
Darkness was all around me in my coffin
My dreams are all nightmares anymore
And this is what I dream every night
The leader of the new world order, the President of the United States
Has declared anyone now residing inside the U.S. of A
Without the RFID chip, you’re just an illegal alien
An enemy combatant of America, welcome to the new world order
This is the end of the road
This is the end of the line
This is the end of your life
This is the
We’re society in a society, where inside the fence, life as you know it stops
They got their rules of conduct and we got ours
Be quick or be dead, you crumble up and die
The clock is ticking so slowly and so much can happen in an hour
This is the end of the road
This is the end of the line
This is the end of your life
This is the endgame
Well, I learned my lessons the hard way
Every scar I earned I had to bleed, inside the day yard
A system of controlled movement like a giant ant farm
Any time is a long time, now you’re not in charge of your time anymore
This is the end of the road
This is the end of the line
This is the end of your life
This is the end
The ex-President signed a secret bill
That can land a legal U.S. citizen in jail
And the Patriot Act stripped away our constitutional rights
They say a concentration camp just popped up, yeah, right
Refuse the chip? Ha, get persecuted and beat
By the tyranny of mind control for the mark of the beast
All rights removed, you’re punished, captured, and enslaved
Believe me when I say, “This is the endgame”
8. The Hardest Part of Letting Go… Sealed with a Kiss
The Hardest Part Of Letting Go…
You’re such a pretty face, radiant, I saw you across the room, I knew I had to have you
Thus started the chase, I knew I would do anything to take your hand and make you mine
But I learnt long ago if you love someone you have to let it go, let it go, let it go
The hardest part of letting go is saying goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Sealed With A Kiss
You severed away in a makeshift cell
Beneath the venomous moonlight
Why unleash my plan to watch you fail?
And why I am so afraid?
Go to sleep, my love
And taste my sweet revenge on your lips
Sealed with a kiss
I returned to the masquerade ball
I kneel the most if you’re weeping
Stone by stone immured in the walls
Forever left for safe keeping
Go to sleep, my love
And taste my sweet revenge upon your lips
Sealed with a kiss
The Hardest Part Of Letting Go…
But I learnt long ago if you love someone you have to let it go, let it go, let it go
The hardest part of letting go is saying goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, let it go
Oh!
9. Head Crusher
It’s time to take your last walk in this world before your journey begins underground
Not before we torment you from your cell, straight to hell with a short detour in between
Begging for mercy you’re all alone, unable to handle the pressure
Before it’s mortification, now let the torture begin!
Death By the Head crusher
Head crusher!
Death By the Head crusher!
Wow!
The horrific torture device for those who fail interrogation
The most painful technique ever known, people thirst for the worst the skull’s disintegration
Beaten, broken, in bloody wreck, adding insult to injury
Heed the cast but it’s much too lats, now let the torture begin!
Death by the Head crusher!
Head crusher!
Death by the Head crusher!
On your knees prisoners take your positions
Place your chin forward into the restraint
Your head slowly caves in from the compression
You faint in a blackout from the infernal pain
Twisting, jerking the shiest move
Your teeth are breaking loose, crushed and splintering into your mouth
Winding down, cutting through like broken glass being chewed
Your fragmented skull and shattering bones
There’s nothing you can do!
10. How the Story Ends
Far off on the horizon you can barely see the torches but rest assure, they’re out there and they’re coming
If you listen the sound is growing nearer of infantry marching out a hypnotizing rhythm
Destroying every town, light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now but this is how the story ends
Above the rain of clashing steel they raise the flags of war, a sign to all the warriors who cannot hear
Amidst smoke of cannon balls they bang the drums of death, pound a cadence out for those who cannot see
Destroying every town, light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now but this is how the story ends
Poison the well and scorch the earth, everything’s slashed and burned
You may not like it now but this is how the story ends
Destroying every town, light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now but this is how the story ends
Poison the well and scorch the earth, everything’s slashed and burned
You may not like it now but this is how the story ends
11. The Right to Go Insane
I barely get to the graveyard shift on time
After pulling another grueling 9 to 5
I live from credit card to check, the paper money’s whirling by
And I hardly just, just barely only just survive
I’m living on the edge, reality is teetering, my mind is on the brink
How will I face the day tomorrow if I can’t make it through today?
I’ve got nothing left to lose but my sanity and the right to go insane
I’ve got nothing left to lose but my mind
I’ve got nothing left to choose so I think I’ll go insane
My stomach aches, insufficient funds
My cheeks are gaunt and my guts are overdrawn
My head pounds, starvation’s giving me the shakes
Too much squalor, too much pressure and now I’m getting pissed
I’m living on the edge, reality is teetering, my mind is on the brink
How will I face the day tomorrow if I can’t make it through today?
I’ve got nothing left to lose but my sanity and the right to go insane
I’ve got nothing left to lose but my mind
I’ve got nothing left to choose so I think I’ll go insane
