История

Начало

1993 год

Группа Cannibal Corpse была создана в начале 1988 года в городе Баффало, штат Нью-Йорк, путем объединения музыкантов двух распавшихся команд: Tirant Sin и Beyond death. В первой ранее играли гитарист Джек Оуэн (Jack Owen) и ударник Пол Мазуркевич (Paul Mazurkiewicz), во второй - гитарист Боб Расей (Bob Rusay) и басист Алекс Уэбстер (Alex Webster). Барнса же нашли чуть позже в группе под названием LEVIATHAN. Пол, Боб и Крис успели сделать несколько демок в составе Tirant Sin. В самом начале 1989 года группа, назвавшая себя Cannibal Corpse, записала одноименное демо “Cannibal Corpse demo’89”, состоявшее из пяти песен. Песни оказались удачными и все вошли после переработки в первый альбом; некоторые из них и сейчас исполняются на концертах. 22 марта 1989 года в местном клубе River Rock Cafe состоялся концерт, записанный на камеру и названный 1- st live CС show.

1994 год

С этой демкой ребята и пошли искать удачи на лейбл Metalblade. Сотрудники лейбла сразу поняли, что перед ними группа хоть и зеленая, но незаурядная, и предложили контракт на целых 7 альбомов. Позже контракт был продлен на более выгодных для музыкантов условиях. Алекс говорит, что секрет успешного сотрудничества заключается в их теплых личных отношениях с ребятами с лейбла. В 1990 году появился первый студийный альбом - Eaten Back to Life. Крис Барнс подпряг личные связи, и артворком занялся известный по Dead World Comics художник Винсент Лок. Первым продюсером стал Scott Burns, о котором рассказывает Джек Оуэн: «Мы работали в студии с 11 утра до полуночи или даже дольше с небольшим перерывом, доводя Скотта до потери разума своей неопытностью и бесконечными вопросами о музыкальной индустрии. Некоторые сессии длились так долго, что он не возвращался домой и спал на полу в нашем отеле!» На подпевках поработал еще один знакомый Криса - Глен Бентон, Deicide. Следом вышли альбомы Butchered at Birth (1991) и Tomb of the Mutilated (1992). Музыка становилась все более техничной и злобной, тексты – кошмарными, а артворк… В работах Винса стали проявляться тонкость и психологизм, соответствовавшие усложнению тематик творчества группы – и музыкальных, и лирических. В 91-м году Каннибалы поехали в первое турне, в том числе по европейским странам. В 1993 году появляется Hammer Smashed Face, демо из 5 треков. Продюсеры начиная с этой работы стали меняться. В феврале этого года группа решила расстаться с Бобом Рьюсеем, в результате чего Боб сгинул в небытии и контакт с ним ни один из участников группы не поддерживает, а на смену ему пришел Роб Барретт из Malevolent Creation. В обновленном составе Каннибалы прилетели в Москву, где дали концерт в поддержку альбома Tomb of the Mutilated.

Проблемы с цензурой



Примерно в это же время группу запретили в Новой Зеландии, Австралии, Корее и частично в Германии. Один подросток пришел в школу в майке “Butchered at Birth”, что морально травмировало учительницу по имени Christa Jenal. И когда эта женщина влезла в правительство, первым делом она запретила Каннибалам играть песни с первых трех альбомов, а заодно и велела подвергнуть цензуре графику. В Корее один продавец, торговавший дисками Cannibal Corpse, и вовсе сел в тюрьму. В Штатах тоже имелись проблемы: били тревогу родительские комитеты, а кандидат в президенты Bob Dole клятвенно обещал, что группы Cannibal Corpse при нем не будет. Выборы проиграл… Более-менее поутихло это безобразие в Америке только после съемок фильма Эйс Вентура: Розыск домашних животных в 1994 году. Cannibal Corpse в этом фильме с Джимом Керри в главной роли. Каннибалы снялись в роли самих себя. Они с удовольствием вспоминают о съемках: «Джим Керри – фанат дэт металла и наш фанат! Нас вызвали на лейбл, где нам сообщили, что команда Джима приглашает сняться в фильме. Мы были очень рады оказанной чести. Мы полетели в Майами Бич и снимались в течение четырех дней. Фильм очень нам помог, потому что люди пошли его смотреть, увидели нас, и некоторые стали нашими фанатами» (Пол Мазуркевич). В фильме показан фрагмент песни Hammer Smashed Face. В этом же году группа записала самый продаваемый, полный 100% ударных композиций альбом The Bleeding, который окончательно вознес группу к вершинам металлического пьедестала. 1994 год оказался переломным и в личной судьбе музыкантов. Всем составом после окончания турне они переехали во Флориду, в Тампу, где создавались наиболее благоприятные условия для развития дэта. Названия флоридских групп говорят за себя: Death, Deicide, Morbid Angel, Obituary…

Смена вокалиста

Но не все в группе шло так хорошо, как парни заслужили. Возникли серьезные разногласия между Крисом, занявшимся группой Six Feet Under, и остальными участниками. О сложившейся ситуации рассказывает Алекс: «Мы подумали, что, если бы Крис остался, группа не стала бы лучше ни по вокалу, ни по остальным партиям. Нам не нравились некоторые написанные им вещи, мы хотели, чтобы тексты были рифмованными и легкими для запоминания. Казалось, что ему уже не так интересны дела Сannibal Corpse, как когда-то раньше. Надо было быть командой, а мы не были, было нас четверо и Крис. У нас были проблемы в студии, звучание не радовало, дело не шло, и мы попросили Криса уйти». Решение было принято, когда Крис катался с SFU. По молодости лет успокоиться обе стороны сразу не смогли и некоторое время передавали друг другу изощренные приветы как в устной форме через третьих лиц, так и в письменной – на стенах клубных гримерок.

Джордж Фишер, достойная замена



Пришедший на смену Джордж Фишер был личным другом Роба Барретта. Прозвище Corpsegrinder (размалыватель трупов) ему досталось в память о его первой группе, после работы в которой он занялся делами в Monstrosity. Lee, барабанщик Monstrosity, нередко в шутку говорил: «Эй, Корпсграйндер!» Так оно к человеку и приросло. О вкладе Фишера в творчество Cannibal Corpse спорят до сих пор. С Фишером Сannibal Сorpse продолжили писать альбом, который теперь уже назывался Vile, сочиненную музыку сохранили. А лирику пришлось переписать. Пришлось поменять и логотип, чтоб не платить пожизненно Крису Барнсу. Алекс об этом сказал, что и выглядело лого как-то несерьезно, по-детски, а группа прошла большой творческий путь и внутренне изменилась, ее участники повзрослели. Гитарист Cannibal Corpse Роб не смог уложить во времени дела в Malevolent Creation и Cannibal Corpse, и на следующем студийном альбоме Gallery of Suicide вместо него играл Pat O’Brien, незадолго до этого ушедший из Nevermore. В альбомах Gallery of Suicide, 1998, и Bloodthirst, 1999, продолжает развиваться лирическая составляющая музыки, особенно ярко выраженная в композициях I will kill you, Gallery of suicide, Dead Human Collection, Unleashing the Bloodthirsty и, конечно же, From Skin To Liquid. На материале выпущенных альбомов в Милуоке, штат Висконсин, было записано видео Live Cannibalism (2000), компиляция из песен с двух концертов.

2000-е

В альбоме Gore Obsessed, 2002, настроения поворачивают от задумчивости и даже некоторой печали к ликующей, разудалой злобе. Вышедший вдогонку сборник Worm Infested того же года был уже предвестником стиля The Wretched Spawn. В 2003 году Каннибалы были награждены платиновым диском по итогам продаж всех изданий на всех носителях. И до сих пор они остаются единственной death metal группой, заслужившей такую награду. 15-летний юбилей группы был отмечен выпуском бокс-сета «15 Year Killing Spree», по края набитого бесценными материалами. Чувствуется, что собрана коробка с искренней любовью к фанатам, что музыкантам хорошо понятно стремление die hard фэнов добыть ВСЕ, что относится к любимой группе. Раритет Каннибалы выложили по максимуму. Альбом The Wretched Spawn, 2003, оказался последним, на котором играл ветеран СС Джек Оуэн. Из Cannibal Corpse он ушел в свой сайд проект, рок-группу Adrift, а в 2005 году вдруг оказался в Deicide. Зачем же ему пришлось менять одну дэтовую команду на другую? Вопрос остается риторическим. Как рассказывал Алекс Вебстер, на носу было турне в Мексике, а Джек уезжал с Adrift. Реакция Каннибалов была почти шоковой: «Ты не можешь так делать, мы же так долго ждали этого турне!» И в самый последний момент пришлось срочно искать замену. Выручил Джереми Тернер, которого мы и увидели на концертах в Питере и Москве в сентябре 2004-го. Позднее в группу на освободившееся место пришел опять Роб Барретт, сначала временно, а затем и постоянно. В 2006 году вышел следующий альбом группы под названием Kill. Вызвавший поначалу некоторое недоумение отсутствием на обложке полюбившегося артворка и простеньким, казалось бы, названием, он пришелся по сердцу и старым, и новым фанатам. Некоторые из них даже склонны считать Kill колоссальным прорывом в творчестве группы. В ноябре 2007 года после многочисленных турне Cannibal Corpse приступили к сочинению материала для следующего альбома. В январе 2009 года на просторах Интернета появилась новая песня Cannibal Corpse под названием "Evisceration Plague". Трек был выпущен в предверии нового альбома группы с одноимённым названием, релиз которого был намечен 3 февраля 2009 года. Продюсировал запись Эрик Рутан, до этого уже имевший опыт работы с группой. Комментирует басист Алекс Уэбстер: «В CANNIBAL CORPSE нашей целью всегда было пытаться и делать каждый новый альбом ещё более тяжёлым. На этот раз это было сделать сложнее после того, как мы уже были удовлетворены результатами нашего альбома "Kill", но мы знали, что работая снова с продюсером Эриком Рутаном в Mana Recording Studios, мы в состоянии начать с того же уровня тяжести и даже продвинуться дальше. Теперь, когда мы услышали конечный результат, я могу сказать, что нам удалось достичь поставленной цели, и я думаю, что фэны с нами согласятся. На альбоме Evisceration Plague лучший гитарный звук из всех, что у нас были, и вся группа в целом никогда не играла с такой точностью и слаженностью. Нам не терпится дать вам шанс услышать альбом в начале 2009-го года, потому что мы думаем, что вы будете так же счастливы, как и мы.»

Биография

Перво-наперво, Stone Sour - это алкогольный коктейль, состоящий из виски, апельсинового сока и sour mix’а (по-русски «Отвертка»). Видимо во время распития нескольких порций в Де-Мойнском баре в 1992 году Кори Тейлор и Джоел Экман (впоследствии ушедший из группы) и решили создать группу. Скоро после образования к ним присоединился старый друг Кори — Шон Экономаки. Без какой либо материальной поддержки и без лейбла группа, вместо того чтобы писать песни, играла в клубах, меняя гитаристов одного за другим, некоторых даже после одного шоу. Однако всей этой чехарде пришел конец когда в группу пришел Джеймс Рут в 1995. Казалось все шло хорошо, группа записала несколько демо-записей, если бы не 1997 год.

В 1997 году Кори присоединяется к Slipknot, Джоел заводит семью, Джим позже сам присоединяется к Slipknot, а Шон становится их менеджером концертов. Казалось, что всё, группа мертва. Но тут на горизонте появляется Джош Рэнд…

Джош был одним из основателей Stone Sour и старым другом Кори. В 2000 году Рэнд показал Тейлору свои песни. Известно, что он сам работал над ранними версиями Get Inside, Orchids, Idle Hands. После чего Кори и Джош начали работать вместе. После полутора лет работы они были так удовлетворены результатом, что было решено собрать прежний состав группы. А тут как раз 2002 год и конфликт в Slipknot… В общем все условия, чтобы вернуться к истокам.

Группа задалась вопросом о названии… Были разные идеи (Project X, Superego, Closure), но решение пришло быстро. С группой, члены которой вместе играли уже не один год, только одно приходило в голову — Stone Sour вернулись. Здесь начинается их современная история…

Студийный дебют коллектива состоялся в начале 2002-го года, когда композиция «Bother» прозвучала в саундтреке к фильму «Spiderman». А чуть позже в том же году в свет вышел и дебютный альбом «Stone sour». Диск дебютировал в Биллбордовском Топ 50, и в первую неделю продаж разошелся тиражом в 25 тысяч. Спустя год альбом стал «золотым», а его тираж достиг полумиллиона экземпляров.

В декабре 2005 г. группа после затишья (хотя для Кори и Джима это было трудно назвать так) пишет материал для нового альбома. Продюсером выбран Ник Раскулинез. Все идет слишком хорошо…

Но идиллия продолжается недолго. Джоэл Экман покидает группу из-за болезни и полследующей смерти своего сына (у него обнаруживают рак мозга)…

Но справедливость есть на свете. Кори бросает пить окончательно (ведь к этому времени он уже был женат и имел 2 детей), на место Джоэла становится бразилец Рой Майорга (ex-Soulfly, ex-Sepultura), которому очень понравился первый альбом группы. Группа держит материал альбома в секрете и в апреле выходит первый клип и песня Hell & Consequences.

23 мая официально появляется новый трек: 30/30-150. Еще позже утекают песни Reborn, Through the Glass (да, тогда в названии еще был артикль) и Come What(ever) May

1 августа альбом Come What(ever) May появляется в продаже и срывает банк.

С сентября группа отправляется в огромный тур, затронувший Россию. 17 октября 2006 года состоялась пресс-конференция, эксклюзивные интервью и автограф-сессия группы в магазине Союз в Москве. 18 октября они выступили с концертом в Лужниках в рамках премии RAMP 2006.

В мартовском интервью Шон Экономаки подтвердил слухи о выходящем специальном издании альбома Come What(ever) May. То есть у фанов группы есть возможность услышать абсолютно все творение группы, и те 6 песен, которые попали под нож, станут своеобразным продолжением истории, казалось закончившейся на песне Zzyzx Rd. DVD содержит выступление на RAMP 2006, клипы 30/30-150, Through Glass, sillyworld и Made Of Scars (в нем Кори уже лысый), почему не вошло видео Reborn, неизвестно… На самом деле, Reborn всё-таки вошло в лицензионный бонус-DVD как скрытое. Релиз состоялся 26 июня 2007 года.

Сейчас Stone Sour взяли отпуск. Кори и Джим возвращаются в Slipknot, а остальные участники будут думать над материалом нового альбома. Возвращение ожидается в 2010 году.

Текст песни System of a down - Suite-Pee

I had an out of body experience
The other day her name was Jesus
And for her everyone cried, everyone cried, everyone cried
Try her philosophy, try her philosophy, try her philosophy, try
You die for her philosophy, die for her philosophy, die her philosophy, die.
Crossed and terrored ravages of architecture, lend me thy blades
We're crossed and terrored ravages or architecture hoist around the spade.
Try her philosophy, try her philosophy, try her philosophy, try
You die for her philosophy, die for her philosophy, die her philosophy, die.
Die...Die...Die...Why?
Lie naked on the floor and let the messiah go all through our souls.
Lie naked on the floor and let the messiah go all through our souls.
Die... like a mother fucker, die... like a mother fucker, die... like a mother fucker
Why... like a mother fucker
I wanna fuck my way to the garden, cause everyone needs a mother fucker!
The following of a Christ, the following of a Christ, the following of a Christ,
the following of a Christ, the falling of Christ, the falling of Christ, the falling of Christ, the falling of Christ.

Текст песни System of a down - KNOW
Cursed Earth, cursed Earth, cursed Earth, cursed Earth.
I will never feed off the evergreen luster of your heart
All because we all live in the valley of the worlds
When we speak we can peek from the windows of their mouths
To see the land the women chant as they fly up to the sun
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know!
Books all say different things while people flap their yellow wings
Trying to soar, being a whore, of life and almost everything
The sheep that ran off from the herd,
May be dead, now's a bird
Able to fly, able to die, able to fuck your mother's Earth
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know!
On the other side, the other side, the other side
Do you ever try to fly? Do you ever try to fly?
Have you ever wanted to die? Ever wanted to die?
Don't ever try to fly! Don't ever try to fly!
Don't ever try to fly unless you leave your body on the other side
Never try to fly, you ever try to die, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know!

Текст песни System of a down - SUGAR
The Kombucha mushroom people, sitting around all day
Who can believe you, who can believe you, let your mother pray...(sugar)
I'm not there all the time ya know some people some people some people call it insane, yeah they call it insane, (sugar)
I play Russian Roulette everyday, a man's sport with a bullet called life
Yeah mama called life (sugar)
You know that every time I try to go where I really want to be it's already where I am...cause I'm already there...
The Kombucha mushroom people, sitting around all day
Who can believe you, who can believe you, let your mother pray...(sugar)
I got a gun the other day from Sako, it's cute, it's small, fits right in my pocket, yeah right in my pocket (sugar)
My girl, you know, she lashes out at me sometimes and I just kick her and then, oh baby, she's o.k. (sugar)
People are always chasing me down, pushing my face to the ground
Where all they really want to do is suck out my mother fucking brains, my brains
The Kombucha mushroom people, sitting around all day
Who can believe you, who can believe you, let your mother pray...
I sit in my desolate room, no lights, no music
Just anger! I've killed everyone, I'm away forever but I'm feeling better
How do I feel, what do I say?
Fuck you, it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
Fuck you, it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away

Текст песни System of a down - SUGGESTIONS
Watching
From a post up high
From where you see the ships afar
From a well trained eye
The waves all keep on crashing by
If you are the light post
Then you own the working class
But if you want the answers
Then you better give a piece of ass
Warning
Post hypnotic suggestions
Running the ships ashore
The orange light that follows
Will soon proclaim itself God
If you point your answers
You better get ready for the fire
Get ready for the fire
The ships are multiplying day after day sir
And they're coming close to the shore sir
Shore sir
We need to evacuate the light post
It's all over, it's all over, it's all over

Текст песни System of a down - SPIDERS
The piercing radiant moon,
The storming of poor June,
All the life running through her hair,
Approaching guiding light,
Our shallow years in fright,
Dreams are made winding through my head,
Through my head,
Before you know,
Awake,
Your lives are open wide,
The V-chip gives them sight,
All the life running through her hair,
The spiders all in tune,
The evening of the moon,
Dreams are made winding through my head,
Through my head,
Before you know,
Awake
Through my head,
Before you know,
Before you know I will be waiting all awake,
Dreams are made winding through her hair,
Dreams are made winding through her hair

Текст песни System of a down - DDEVIL
Plagiarized existence exist,
Among the writers of the word,
Shake your spear at Shakespeare,
Shake your spear at Shakespeare,
Loud and noisy,
Strong refrigerators,
Gaining independence,
Gaining independence,
Stupid people do stupid things,
Smart people outsmart each other,
Then themselves, then themselves,
Then themselves, then themselves,
Take me down there,
Photographic relapse,
People feeding frenzy,
The devil is so lovely,
My blue moon rivets in exits,
Forewarned customary spirits,
By myself, by myself,
By myself, by myself,
Take me down there,
Photographic relapse,
People feeding frenzy,
The devil is so lovely,
Take me down there,
Photographic relapse,
People feeding frenzy,
The devil is so lovely

Текст песни System of a down - MIND
Look at each other,
Look at each other, Look at each other, Look at each other.

Go away, Go away, Go away, Go away.......

Mutually, mentally molested children of a Mother,
Mutually, mentally molested children of Sin,
The ever so popular beating that took you under,
The ever so popular beating that broke your skin.

Free thinkers are dangerous,
Blame, Hate, For Fate's Seed.

Go away, Go away, Go away, Go away.......

Need the one you love and love the ones you need,
Need the one you love and love the ones you bleed,
Lives rearranged and lives in my range can you breath
Lives rearranged and lives in my range can you see.

Free thinkers are dangerous,
Blame, Hate, For Fate's, Seed.

Why, Why, Why, Why,
Gonna let you mother fuckers die, Gonna let you mother fuckers die,
Gonna let you mother fuckers die, Why........

Look at each other, Look at each other..

Текст песни System of a down - WAR
Dark is the light,
The man you fight,
With all your prayers, incantations,

Running away, a trivial day,
Of judgment and deliverance,
To whom was sold, this bounty soul,
A gentile or a priest ?
Who victored over, the Seljuks,
When the holy land was taken

We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens

Was it the riches, of the land,
Powers of bright darkness,
That lead the noble, to the East,
To fight the heathens

We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens

We must call upon our bright darkness,
Beliefs, they're the bullets of the wicked,
One was written on the sword,
For you must enter a room to destroy it,
International security,
Call of the righteous man,
Needs a reason to kill man,
History teaches us so,
The reason he must attain,
Must be approved by his God,
His child, partisan brother of war,

Of war, we don't speak anymore,
Of war, we don't speak anymore,
Of war, we don't speak anymore,
Of war, we don't speak anymore,

We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens

When your stars are baked,
And your rivers fly,
Do you ever believe you were stuck out in the, Sky,

When your castle breaks,
And your feet are dry,
Do you ever believe you were stuck out in the, Sky,

Do you believe, when you're high,
That your life is tried,

Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't ever get stuck in the sky, when you're high,

When your moon is fake,
And your mermaids cry,
Do you ever believe you were stuck out in the, Sky,

When your tunnel fades,
And your guide is shy,
Do you ever believe you were stuck out in the, Sky,

Do you believe, when you're high,

That your life is tried,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't ever get stuck in the sky, when you're high,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't ever get stuck in the sky, when you're high~

Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't ever get stuck in the sky, when you're high

Preflight delight,
Defaced street lights,
A pyramid mind fuck,
Don't leave your seats now,

Popcorn everywhere, canned,
Cliche people organs rare,
Corn everywhere canned,
Cliche people organs rare,

Rare (repeat)

I want to be,
A fallen ruby,
Guest vibrations,
Don't leave your seats now,

Humans everywhere, canned,
Cliche people organs rare,
Humans everywhere, canned,
Cliche people cannot dare,

Elimination

Why, Die Walk Down

A whole race Genocide,
Taken away all of our pride,
A whole race Genocide,
Taken away, Watch Them all fall down.

Revolution, the only solution,
The armed response of an entire nation,
Revolution, the only solution,
We've taken all your shit, now it's time for restitution.

Recognition, Restoration, Reparation,
Recognition, Restoration, Reparation,
Watch them all fall down.

Revolution, the only solution,
The armed response of an entire nation,
Revolution, the only solution,
We've taken all your shit, now it's time for restitution.

The plan was mastered and called Genocide (Never want to see you around)
Took all the children and then we died, (Never want to see you around)
The few that remained were never found, (Never want to see you around)
All in a system of Down......Down.....Down.......Down........Walk Down...........

Watch them all fall down,
Revolution, the only solution,
The armed response of an entire nation,
Revolution, the only solution,
We've taken all your shit, now it's time for restitution.

The plan was mastered and called Genocide (Never want to see you around)
Took all the children and then we died, (Never want to see you around)
The few that remained were never found, (Never want to see you around)
All in a system, Down

It appears that we have reached the Edge, that zenith where stimuli and comatose collide. Forty years ago, THE MAN proclaimed the Age of the Gross to be upon us, and even though THE MAN was destroying our heritage and insulting our intelligence, that era has become very real. We labor for pleasure and abhor the guilt of pressure. My generation will go down as the architects of contemporary disgust. Some have fought and died. Others have allowed the strong to be butchered for a price they themselves don’t care about and will never understand. I myself am beleaguered by the selfish face of a kind of man that is NOT MANKIND. Distrust
in information. Fundamentalism of opinion. Catastrophic boredom, and a fanatical devotion to that which DOES NOT MATTER. Where is your glory now, people? Where are your gods and politicians? Where is your shame and salvation? You Rage For No Reason Because You Have No Reason. WHAT HAVE YOU EVER FOUGHT FOR?
WHAT HAVE YOU EVER BLED FOR?
THE FACE OF THE EARTH IS SCARRED WITH THE WALKING DEAD.
THE AGE OF THE GROSS IS A LIVING VIRUS. THIS IS THE FUTURE YOU HAVE CREATED. THIS IS THE
WORLD YOU HAVE SET ABLAZE.
ALL YOUR LIES ARE COMING TRUE.
ALL FREEDOM IS LOST.
ALL HOPE IS GONE

Gematria (The Killing Name)

All I ever really wanted was to take the blame
I will go down in History and not down in Flames
Meningitis / I will survive this / Dry Sockets and a Schizophrenic Crisis
The Time of The Nine has begun
Get out of the way or you will suffer as one

This is so TYPICAL / APOCALYPTICAL
Hanging on abysmal release / Jesus
I don’t need this / Don’t wanna be this
Icon in the Making / My hands are fucking shaking

WHAT IF GOD DOESN’T CARE?
WHAT IF GOD DOESN’T CARE…

Remember / Surrender / The Time is Now
Continue / We’re in you… and we will BURN YOUR CITIES DOWN

AMERICA IS A KILLING NAME
IT DOESN’T FEEL OR DISCRIMINATE
LIFE IS JUST A KILLING FIELD
IT’S ALL THAT’S LEFT - NOTHING’S REAL
THROW AWAY YOUR DISPOSABLE PAST
AND FALL APART LIKE A CIGARETTE ASH
WE ARE THE FATAL AND VITAL ONES OF THE WORLD
AND WE WILL BURN YOUR CITIES DOWN

WHAT IF GOD DOESN’T CARE?
WHAT IF GOD DOESN’T CARE?

AMERICA IS A KILLING NAME
IT DOESN’T FEEL OR DISCRIMINATE
LIFE IS JUST A KILLING FIELD
IT’S ALL THAT’S LEFT - NOTHING’S REAL
THROW AWAY YOUR DISPOSABLE PAST
AND FALL APART LIKE A CIGARETTE ASH
WE ARE THE FATAL AND VITAL ONES OF THE WORLD
AND WE WILL BURN YOUR CITIES DOWN

Down…

WE WILL BURN YOUR CITIES DOWN

Feed the Hungry - Feed them shit
Feed them BONES and POLITICS
You wanna revolutionize?
Be specific and believe your eyes
Start a war in another backyard
And we’ll destroy your house of cards
Give me a minute and I’ll change your mind
Give me a bullet and I’ll change your life

Remember / Surrender / The Time is Now
Continue / We’re in you…
And we will BURN YOUR CITIES DOWN

AMERICA IS A KILLING NAME
IT DOESN’T FEEL OR DISCRIMINATE
LIFE IS JUST A KILLING FIELD
IT’S ALL THAT’S LEFT - NOTHING’S REAL
THROW AWAY YOUR DISPOSABLE PAST
AND FALL APART LIKE A CIGARETTE ASH
WE ARE THE FATAL AND VITAL ONES OF THE WORLD
AND WE WILL BURN YOUR CITIES DOWN

WE WILL BURN YOUR CITIES DOWN

America… what if "God" doesn’t care?

Sulfur

My Guilt and My Shame always sell me short - always feel the same
And My Face and My Soul always wear me thin - always under control
But the longest hours you’ll have in your life
Are the ones you sit through to know if you’re right
So I’ll wait, but I pray that I’m wrong
Because I think I know what’s going on

So Let Me Get This Straight… the only will is my own
I do whatever I want and stay alone
All my decisions make it untouchable and tainted
I’m gonna suffer for the rest of my life
But I will always find a way to survive
I’m not a failure, but I know what it’s like
I can take it or leave it… or die

STAY - You don’t always know where you stand
‘Til you know that you won’t run away
There’s something inside me that feels
Like Breathing in Sulfur…

My Life is undone - and I’m a sinner to most but a sage to some
And my Gods are Untrue - I’m probably wrong, but I’m better than you
And the longest hours I’ve had in my life
Were the ones I went through to know I was right
So I’m safe, but I’m a little outside
I’m gonna laugh when I’m buried alive

STAY - You don’t always know where you stand
‘Til you know that you won’t run away
There’s something inside me that feels
Like Breathing in Sulfur…

LIKE BREATHING IN SULFUR

STAY - You don’t always know where you stand
‘Til you know that you won’t run away
There’s something inside me that feels
Like Breathing in Sulfur…

LIKE BREATHING IN SULFUR

Psychosocial

I did my time and I want out - so effusive
Fade / it doesn’t cut / the soul is not so vibrant
The Reckoning / The Sickening
Packaging Subversion / Pseudo-Sacrosanct Perversion
Go drill your deserts / Go dig your graves
Then fill your mouth with all the money you will save
Sinking in / Getting smaller again / I’M DONE
It has begun. I’m not the only one…

AND THE RAIN WILL KILL US ALL…
WE THROW OURSELVES AGAINST THE WALL
BUT NO ONE ELSE CAN SEE THE PRESERVATION OF THE MARTYR IN ME



There are cracks in the road we laid, but where the temple fell,
The secrets have gone mad
This is nothing new, but when we killed it all, the hate was all we had
Who needs another mess? We could start over
Just look me in the eyes and say I’m wrong
Now there’s only emptiness… venomous, insipid
I think we’re done. I’m not the only one…

AND THE RAIN WILL KILL US ALL…
WE THROW OURSELVES AGAINST THE WALL
BUT NO ONE ELSE CAN SEE THE PRESERVATION OF THE MARTYR IN ME



THE LIMITS OF THE DEAD

Fake Anti-Fascist Lie
I tried to tell you, but your purple hearts are giving out
Can’t stop a killing idea if it’s hunting season
Is this what you want?
I’m not the only one…

AND THE RAIN WILL KILL US ALL…
WE THROW OURSELVES AGAINST THE WALL
BUT NO ONE ELSE CAN SEE THE PRESERVATION OF THE MARTYR IN ME
AND THE RAIN WILL KILL US ALL…
WE THROW OURSELVES AGAINST THE WALL
BUT NO ONE ELSE CAN SEE THE PRESERVATION OF THE MARTYR IN ME

THE LIMITS OF THE DEAD

Dead Memories

Sitting in the dark, I can’t forget. Even now, I realize the time I’ll never get. Another story of the Bitter Pills of Fate. I can’t go back again. I can’t go back again…
But you asked me to love you and I did. Traded my emotions for a contract to commit. And when I got away, I only got so far. The Other Me Is Dead.
I hear his voice inside my head…
We were never alive, and we won’t be born again.
But I’ll never survive with Dead Memories in my heart.
You told me to love you and I did. Tied my soul into a knot and got me to submit. So when I got away, I only kept my scars. The Other Me Is Gone.
Now I don’t know where I belong…
We were never alive, and we won’t be born again.
But I’ll never survive with Dead Memories in my heart.
Dead Visions in your Name.
Dead Fingers in my Veins.
Dead Memories in my Heart…

Vendetta

I know my uses / I have my pride / But my heart is still untamed
I learned my lessons / I’ve conquered Death / I go on and I’m unashamed
I’ll paint your bones to match my eyes / They’re the darkest I have ever seen
Until I’m lucid, I can’t be told
I know my voices / They tell me to BELIEVE

Another fucking accident out of control / All the attitudes will never change
My Imitations are leading the way
I can’t accept that I still don’t find this strange

In light of my ability to feel denial
I walk away from everything with just a smile
The Agony of Coming Home has gone away
It’s Everywhere / It’s Everyone / It’s Every Day

ARE YOU READY FOR THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE

I beg your pardon / I’m out of the way / A new conspiracy has taken my place
So over and over, I smell the decay
Believe what you want to - The Cycle Stays The Same

In light of my ability to undermine
I walk away from apathy - I’m feeling fine
The Agony of Cynicism beckons me
It’s Everywhere / It’s Everyone / It’s Everything

ARE YOU READY FOR THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE

LET’S - PRETEND - WE’RE NOT AT THE END
PRETEND - THAT WE HAVE NOTHING LEFT

ARE YOU READY FOR THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE

LET’S - PRETEND - WE’RE NOT AT THE END
PRETEND - THAT WE HAVE NOTHING LEFT

Butcher’s Hook

Contrite - Commercial - Arrogance - Leprosy
Consume The Bitch - The Fucker - Mindless - Like A Child
For Pity’s Sake - I’ve Had All That I Can Take
We Try - But In The End We’ll See
There Are No More Codes
Only Who Is Shit / And Who’s Still Free
I was gonna change the world with Honor and Aggression
No one listened - no one cared
All they saw was misdirection

GO AHEAD AND DISAGREE / I’m giving up again…

I DON’T WANT YOU ANYMORE
I DON’T NEED YOU ANYMORE
Fingerprint of God / Your new religions covet
This vessel wasn’t built to last
But I will live forever/ you’ll never have to say surrender
Because you’re so part of it
My total honesty has no place for Tomorrow
Guilty pleasures give me pain
Tell my people I CAN’T FOLLOW

GO AHEAD AND DISAGREE / I’m giving up again…

You’ll never CENSOR me / You’d better CHERISH me
My REASON has a voice / Freedom’s gone but we’ll always have a CHOICE
My PRESENT FUTURE TENSE / It doesn’t make much SENSE
I’m coming after you / FUCK YOU ALL I’M THE ONLY POINT OF VIEW

Violence and Dollar Signs / Another processed piece of shit
You hide your fault in DIAMONDS and give away the only
COST - you can’t delay the inevitable
LOST - don’t understand the incredible path
I’m losing ground - but I won’t care when I go down

GO AHEAD AND DISAGREE / I’m giving up again…

I’M GIVING UP AGAIN

Gehenna

Do you Believe? Do you Fade like a Dream?
Let me hear you BREATHE
Let me watch as you sleep
The Sparrow’s Eyes… Promises shift into judgments
I cannot deny that you were designed for my punishments

The Blood and The Body - Control the cut so it’s seamless
Show me your Heart - Show me the way to complete this
TETHERED / to a scene I / TREASURE / can you help me?
I / SEVER/ god it’s perfect, it’s / NEVER / really perfect
Now… I can finally be myself
Cuz I don’t want to be myself

FREE MY SEVERED HEART, GIVE ME YOU - I WANT IT
(I don’t want to be myself)

I cannot maintain a semblance of Normal anymore
I’d rather feel pain than try to fit in with you anymore
I’ll throw it all away, like everybody else
I can finally be myself
Cuz I don’t want to be myself

FREE MY SEVERED HEART, GIVE ME YOU - I WANT IT
(I don’t want to be myself)

This Cold Black

Mother Nature is a Coward (Mother Nature is a Whore)
No More Presence / No More Power (I pray for death, by the hour)
Cut Another Smile Into Me (Into ME is All You Are)
My Artifice won’t Recognize Me (You won’t find me)… Anymore

Post-Traumatic War Machines / The Pessimists still won’t believe
Throw away my past mistakes / It’s all I can to feel
Let my weapons be you CHILDREN / Let my armies be your DAMNED
Try to suffer on in silence / TRY TO STOP ME IF YOU CAN

PNEUMATIC DESTROYER - PATHETIC SEDUCER
DISTORTION SUFFICIENT
SOME DAY - ONE DAY - WE’LL LIVE OUR LIVES AGAIN

My Ghosts Have Found Their Way Back Home
I have every right to kill my own
I am something now that never could exist
My Anguish Conquers All / Pay The Price And Watch Me Fall
My Only Key Is Broken - My Broken Key Is Only… ME

PNEUMATIC DESTROYER - PATHETIC SEDUCER
DISTORTION SUFFICIENT
SOME DAY - ONE DAY - WE’LL LIVE OUR LIVES AGAIN

You utter waste of tired flesh - It doesn’t matter if you can’t progress
Even now they still create me - Give me your ignorance / IRRITATE ME
I am made of the same debris - You want it all but you didn’t want me
Hypocrite with no real use - I’m alive: what’s your excuse?

PNEUMATIC DESTROYER - PATHETIC SEDUCER
DISTORTION SUFFICIENT
SOME DAY - ONE DAY - WE’LL LIVE OUR LIVES AGAIN
PNEUMATIC DESTROYER - PATHETIC SEDUCER
DISTORTION SUFFICIENT
SOME DAY - ONE DAY - WE’LL LIVE OUR LIVES AGAIN

WE’LL LIVE OUR LIVES AGAIN

Wherein Lies Contine

THOU SHALT NOT
Kill your Fathers - Destroy another Life
Question everything we clung to for years
Live Forever - Design a Better Death
Confuse a liar with a savior from fear
Create a Myth and Separate the Chosen Ones
Adolescent Independence / Dominion
I only wanna believe in fuckin’ anything
But now my conscience is contradicting everything

THE ENDING’S THE SAME / THE WORLD WILL NOT CHANGE
THE ANSWER IS CLEAR…

Tell your Mothers they have no Sons or Daughters
Blame yourselves because your Children are Mine
We are Orphans, but we are not Forgotten
And we will find a way to save us this time
We can run, but we are tired of running
We’re dropping seconds in a glass ‘til we die
We only wanna believe in fuckin’ everything
But we’re alive and we’re not accepting anything

THE ENDING’S THE SAME / THE WORLD WILL NOT CHANGE
THE ANSWER IS CLEAR… ANNIHILATION

I won’t control or restrain things I do not understand
Now I realize I’m STRONGER BETTER
They gave to me now I give to you the means to burn the thoughts I had
Now I realize I’m STRONGER BETTER MORE

WE HAVE TO SAVE OURSELVES

I will never become another piece
Inside the Paralytic Construct I hate
Live Forever? Well, I would rather die
At least I’d know I wasn’t theirs to create
This is yours, but you had better choose
Before they take away your right to decide
I guess I’ll never believe in fuckin’ anything
But my solace is I CAN HANDLE EVERYTHING

THE ENDING’S THE SAME / THE WORLD WILL NOT CHANGE
THE ANSWER IS CLEAR… OBLITERATION

I won’t control or restrain things I do not understand
Now I realize I’m STRONGER BETTER
They gave to me now I give to you the means to burn the thoughts I had
Now I realize I’m STRONGER BETTER
I won’t control or restrain things I do not understand
Now I realize I’m STRONGER BETTER
They gave to me now I give to you the means to burn the thoughts I had
Now I realize I’m STRONGER BETTER
MORE

WE HAVE TO SAVE OURSELVES

Snuff

Bury all your secrets in my skin
Come away with innocence, and leave me with my sins
The air around me still feels like a cage
And love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again…

So if you love me, let me go. And run away before I know.
My heart is just too dark to care. I can’t destroy what isn’t there.
Deliver me into my Fate - If I’m alone I cannot hate
I don’t deserve to have you…
My smile was taken long ago / If I can change I hope I never know

I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn’t face a life without your light
But all of that was ripped apart… when you refused to fight

So save your breath, I will not hear. I think I made it very clear.
You couldn’t hate enough to love. Is that supposed to be enough?
I only wish you weren’t my friend. Then I could hurt you in the end.
I never claimed to be a Saint…
My own was banished long ago / It took the Death of Hope to let you go

So Break Yourself Against My Stones
And Spit Your Pity In My Soul
You Never Needed Any Help
You Sold Me Out To Save Yourself
And I Won’t Listen To Your Shame
You Ran Away - You’re All The Same
Angels Lie To Keep Control…
My Love Was Punished Long Ago
If You Still Care, Don’t Ever Let Me Know
If you still care, don’t ever let me know…

All Hope is Gone

The State of the Nation / VIOLATION / a broken promise is as good as a LIE
The Hell is Humongous / The Devil’s among us
And we will BURN if we won’t unite
What are we conceding for our freedom? Why does anybody think we need ‘em?
I would rather FIGHT than let another DIE
We’re the Problem, but we’re also the Solution…

ALL HOPE IS GONE

If you want it, come and TAKE-IT-FROM-ME
If you think you can, you STILL-DON’T-KNOW-ME
Let me tell you man I SAID IT / I MEANT IT
And I will always have the right to defend it
50 SECONDS / 100 MURDERS / The Bill of Rights is a bill of sale
What will you do when your war is over?
What will you do when your system fails?

WE HAVE MADE THE PRESENT OBSOLETE
WHAT DO YOU WANT? WHAT DO YOU NEED?
WE’LL FIND A WAY… WHEN ALL HOPE IS GONE
WE’VE SEEN THE FALL OF THE ELITE
BURY YOUR LIFE / TAKE YOUR DISEASE
WE’LL END THE WORLD… WHEN ALL HOPE IS GONE

WE HAVE MADE THE PRESENT OBSOLETE
WHAT DO YOU WANT? WHAT DO YOU NEED?
WE’LL FIND A WAY… WHEN ALL HOPE IS GONE
WE’VE SEEN THE FALL OF THE ELITE
BURY YOUR LIFE / TAKE YOUR DISEASE
WE’LL END THE WORLD… WHEN ALL HOPE IS GONE

The Wretched are the Wounded / The Hungry starve to death
In a place where no one goes, the air itself is a final breath
So discontinue the Antiseptic Care Charade
As a cry of justice comes, a malignant fire fades

I am the Reason your Future suffers / I am the Hatred you won’t embrace
I am the Worm of a pure gestation / I am the Remedy - SPIT IN MY FACE
All your laws and rules are outdated
All your subjects are killing the kings
I could rattle off a million other reasons why
But does it matter when the only thing we love will die?

WE HAVE MADE THE PRESENT OBSOLETE
WHAT DO YOU WANT? WHAT DO YOU NEED?
WE’LL FIND A WAY… WHEN ALL HOPE IS GONE
WE’VE SEEN THE FALL OF THE ELITE
BURY YOUR LIFE / TAKE YOUR DISEASE
WE’LL END THE WORLD… WHEN ALL HOPE IS GONE
WE’VE MADE THE PRESENT OBSOLETE
WHAT DO YOU WANT? WHAT DO YOU NEED?
WE’LL FIND A WAY… WHEN ALL HOPE IS GONE
WE’VE SEEN THE FALL OF THE ELITE
BURY YOUR LIFE / TAKE YOUR DISEASE
WE’LL END THE WORLD… WHEN ALL HOPE IS GONE

WHEN ALL HOPE IS GONE

Child of burning time

The child of burning time

My only consolation is all lies
The apex of my consequence is dying here tonight
Winter has returned and it always looks like rain
I cant remember anything…anything
Inside the absolution is to come
And appetites are bittersweet I think I’m coming home
A chance to give up Avarice has marked my one regret
The child of burning time has gone, he hasn’t come back /he hasn’t come back yet

Before I tell my story please consider who I am
I missed my window years ago, I’m doing all I can
A tragedy is commonplace but in the end they go away
A skin is still the only stain I’m left to wear in shame
And I cut my need into my heart, I tear it all apart
I beg you burn me away, I won’t become your hero just to fight the life I saved
Burn me away, I won’t give up tommorow just to lose it all today

I burn away
I burn away
I burn away
I burn away

My isolation is my course
The effect it has on life itself is a cancer on its source
I rue the moments spent between the fetish and the flame
Until this war is over I won’t ever lose my rage

And I cut my need into my soul, I guess I’ll never know
I beg you burn me away, I won’t become your hero just to fight the life I saved
Burn me away, I won’t give up tommorow just to lose it all today

Burn me away, I wont become your hero just to fight the life I saved
Burn me away, I wont give up tommorow just to lose it all, lose it all today

Vermilion Pt. 2

She seemed dressed in all of me
Stretched across my shame
All the torment and the pain
Leaked through and covered me
I’d do anything to have her for myself
Just to have her for myself
Now I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to do
When she makes me sad

She is everything to me
The unrequited dream
The song that no one sings
The Unattainable
She’s a myth I have to believe in
All I need to make it real is one more reason
I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to do
When she makes me sad

But I won’t let this build up inside of me
I won’t let this build up inside of me
I won’t let this build up inside of me
I won’t let this build up inside of me

A catch in my throat
Choke
Torn into pieces
I won’t - No
I don’t wanna be this
But I won’t let this build up inside of me
I won’t let this build up inside of me
I won’t let this build up inside of me
I won’t let this build up inside of me
Won’t let this build up inside of me

She isn’t real
I can’t make her real
She isn’t real
I can’t make her real

Til We Die

My friends are all hurting from moments and regrets and charity laced with a lie
And still we keep hoping, to fix all the defects and strengthen these seminal ties
We go on together for better or worse, our history is to real to hate
Now and forever we stay until morning, and promise to fight for our fate

‘Til we die
‘Til we die

The start of the journey is every bit worth it, I can let you down anymore
The sky is still clearing, we’re never afraid and the consequence opens the door
I’ve never stopped trying, I’ve never stopped feeling like family is much more than blood
Don’t go on without me, the piece that I represent complements each and every one

‘Til we die
‘Til we die

We won’t be forgotten, we’ll never give in
This war we’ve acheived has allowed us to win

‘Til we die
‘Til we die

My last true confession will open your eyes, I’ve never know trust like the nine
Let it be spoken, let it be screamed, they’ll never ever take us alive

‘Til we die
‘Til we die

We won’t be forgotten, we’ll never give in
This war we’ve acheived has allowed us to win

Carry on
Carry on

We’ll never be broken, we won’t be denied, our war is the pressure we need to deny
We’ll never be broken, we won’t be denied, our war is the pressure we need to deny

‘Til we die
‘Til we die

We won’t be forgotten, we’ll never give in
This war we’ve acheived has allowed us to win

Carry on
Carry on

We’ll never be broken, we won’t be denied, our war is the pressure we need to deny

‘Til we die
‘Til we die
‘Til we die

We won’t be forgotten, we’ll never give in
This war we’ve acheived has allowed to us win
We’ll never be broken, we won’t be denied, our war is the pressure we need to deny

Prelude 3.0
I don't know why I never told you
I don't know why I never tried
When we shed these bitter skins again
All the reasons come to life
But now it's over
Now it's over (x3)
I don't know why you never asked me
I don't know why you never cared
When we hide these little sins again
All the reasons have to die
But now it's over
Now it's over (x3)
Now it's over!! (x4)
NO !


The Blister Exists
One, two, three !
Yeah!!
Drop it !
Bones in the water and dust in my lungs
Absorbing archaic like a sponge
The ultimate way is the way you control
But can you stay if you detach your soul
Bury the present and squeeze out the past
The ones you endear to never last
Chemical burns and the animalistic
I'm just another hardline pseudo-statistic
Can you feel this ?
I'm dying to feel this!
Can you feel this ?
Blood on the paper and skin on my teeth
Trying to commit to what's beneath
To find the time is to lose the momentum
You learn the lessons and immediately forget them
Automatic and out of my beach!
Consult all the waste to find the key
Minimal life and the polysyllabic
I'm just another blank page - Push the button, pull the rage
Can you feel this ?
I'm dying to feel this!
Can you feel this ?
I am all but what am I ?
Another number that isn't equal to any of you
I control, but I comply
Pick me apart, then pick up the pieces
I'm uneven!!
I am the damaged one
All my life and the damage done (x4)
Can you feel this ?
I'm dying to feel this!
Can you feel this ? (x2)
I am all but what am I ?
Another number that isn't equal to any of you
I control, but I comply
Pick me apart, then pick up the pieces
I'm uneven!!
I am all but what am I ?
Another number that isn't equal to any of you
I control, but I comply
Pick me apart, then pick up the pieces
I'm uneven!!

Three Nil
One, Two, Three Nil !!
Chaos - It's just the beginning
Every promise I made I'm rescinding
Center mass in the middle of the monster
I'm getting tired of drowning the constant
Cry for help - It's debatable
The only reason that you love me is I'm hated by all
Come on - come see dysfunction
I guess we're gonna leave it open for discussion
Who am I ? and where am I going ?
Maybe I'm looking in the wrong direction
Maybe I'm looking for any direction
This is not my war - This is not my fight
This is something more - This is not my life
(This is not my) Revolution
(This is not my) Convolution
(This is not my) Expectation
(This is not my) Desperation
Holed up, scarred and tamed for the hell of it
Look at me - I am the glorified malcontent
Save me ? Save this !
All I gotta do is give up and all is forgiven
I'm sick - Of being the butt of a cosmic joke
And I don't get the punch line
A million people lined up for miles
To see the great big mouth shut up and apologize
This is not my war - This is not my fight
This is something more - This is not my life
(This is not my) Revolution
(This is not my) Convolution
(This is not my) Only reason to question why
Today I said goodbye!
Oh I didn't need to leave to stay right here
Today I said goodbye! - Good bye !
Oh I didn't need to leave to stay right here
Today I said goodbye! - Good bye !
Oh I didn't need to leave to stay right here
Today I said goodbye! - Good bye !
Oh I didn't need to leave to stay right here
Today I said goodbye! - Good bye !
Oh I didn't need to leave to stay right here
Today I said goodbye!!
I'm the pariah (Break me)
I am the liar (Save me)
I can take anything (Make me)
Accuse me of everything (Take me)
Cut off the system (Shape me)
Deny my existence (Waste me)
I won't be afraid (Try me)
I won't be unmade (Deny me)
So com on - Break it off
Come on - Buy the lie
Come on - Say it, say it
Come on
Say goodbye!
Goodbye!
Oh I didn't need to leave to stay right here
Today I said goodbye! - Good bye !
Oh I didn't need to leave to stay right here
Today I said goodbye! - Good bye !
Oh I didn't need to leave to stay right here
Today I said goodbye! - Good bye !
Oh I didn't need to leave to stay right here
Today I said goodbye!!!!
One, Two, Three Nil !!
Yes !!

Duality
I push my fingers into my eyes
it's the only thing
that slowly stops the ache
but it's made of all
the things I have to take
Jesus it never ends
it works it's way inside
if the pain goes on...
I have screamed until my veins collapsed
I’ve waited as my time's elapsed
now all I do is live with so much fate
I've wished for this
I've bitched at that
I’ve left behind this little fact
you cannot kill what you did not create
I’ve gotta say what I’ve gotta say and then I swear I'll go away
but I cant promise you'll enjoy the noise
I guess I'll save the best for last
my future seems like one big past
You're left with me cause you left me no choice
I push my fingers into my eyes
It’s the only thing
that slowly stops the ache
If the pain goes on
I'm not gonna make it!
Put me back together
Or separate the skin from bone
Leave me all the pieces
Then you can leave me alone
Tell me the reality is better than the dream
But I’ve found out the hard way
Nothing is what it seems
I push my fingers into my eyes
It’s the only thing
that slowly stops the ache
but it’s made of all
the things I have to take
Jesus it never ends
it works it's way inside
if the pain goes on
I’m not gonna make it!
All I’ve got
All I’ve got is insane
All I’ve got
All I’ve got is insane
All I’ve got!
All I’ve got is insane!
All I’ve got!
All I’ve got is insane!
All I’ve got!
All I’ve got is insane!
All I’ve got!
All I’ve got is insane!
I push my fingers into my eyes
It’s the only thing
that slowly stops the ache
but it’s made of all
the things I have to take
Jesus it never ends
it works it's way inside
if the pain goes on
I’m not gonna make it
All I’ve got
All I’ve got is insane
All I’ve got!
All I’ve got is insane!
All I’ve got!
All I’ve got is insane!
All I’ve got!
All I’ve got is insane!

Opium of the People
COME ON!
Watch those idiosyncrasies
Watch all the idiots fall on me
Running out of ways to get outta the ways
Take another shot just to stay the same
But I need some balance - Back it off
Fill your lungs 'till it makes you' cough
Tell me everything's gonna be alright
Cause I don't think I'll make it through tonight
The only way, is all the way (x2)
The only way (the only way)
Is all the way (is all the way)
The only way (the only way)
Is all the way (is all the way !!)
OH-MY-GOD
It's judgement day and I'm not prepared
Everybody out there's running scared
So - take a little bit off the top
I don't care, just make it stop
I won't give another soul... to you
I won't give another life... to you
You have to stop
STOP! (x3)
Do one thing and say something cryptic
But the styles always clash
One thing I know for sure
The hypothetical won't work anymore
One wrong move and they will pound!
My nails are tight inside my wrists
This sacrament is sacrilege and sentimental
Deity experimental - Faith is accidental
I won't give another soul... to you
I won't give another life... to you
I won't give another thought
I won't give anymore of my hope... to you

Circle
Give me the dust of my fathers
Stand on the face of the ancients
Bare the secret flesh of time itself
Follow me (Follow me)
I've come so far I'm behind again
Follow me (Follow me)
I Wish so hard, I'm there again
Follow me (Follow me)
Follow me (Follow me)
All that I wanted were things I had before
All that I needed, I never needed more
All of my questions are answers to my sins
And all of my endings are waiting to begin
I know the way. but I falter
Can't be afraid of my patience
There's a sacred place razel keeps safe
Follow me (Follow me)
I've seen so much, I'm blind again
Follow me (Follow me)
I feel so bad, I'm alive again
Follow me (Follow me)
All that I wanted were things I had before
All that I needed, I never needed more
All of my questions are answers to my sins
And all of my endings are waiting to begin

Welcome
I am a product - of your conduct
The uncontrollable urges that made me
Have made us all - are you proud ? do you even care?
You taught us all to lie - that's how we made it here
you should've buried the truth with your secrets
But you were far too impressed with your pretense
Now as far as I know, I don't know anything
Cause you made damn sure I wasn't anything
Distractions, Reactions
The only way to go is to go away
Discarded, Retarded
Before I let you go, you have to let me
Clawed away from human clay
We our the broken shards,the art disarray
Before you condemn, you rape them,feed us meconium
Stunt our growth from our souls to our throats - cut!
You shouldn't wall us up with your apathy
But you did, now you're only growing enemies
This is the catalyst, the alpha, the first breed
Cause you made damn sure - now we're everything
Distractions, Reactions
The only way to go is to go away
Discarded, Retarded
Before I let you go, you have to let me
Much to my surprise,I will wake up
And follow of the path of the ones I am made of
But this time... I won't give in
I will save you from my sins
(What is wrong with this...Manipulation...Violence and Chaotic)
Ensconced... In all that's wrong
I slam you shut... I can only take so much
How many times do I have to mistreat you ?
Constantly biting my hand as I feed you
Maybe now you'll understand severity
I'll sum it up with the best amount of brevity
Welcome to the transformation
Welcome to annihilation
Welcome to the man that wanted
Everything, but couldn't have it
Distractions, Reactions
The only way to go is to go away
Discarded, Retarded
Before I let you go, you have to let me
Much to my surprise,I will wake up
And follow of the path of the ones I am made of
But this time... I won't give in
I will save you from my sins
Save you from my sins !
Save you from my sins !

Vermillion
She seems dressed in all the rings... of past fatalities
So fragile, yet so devious - She continues to see
Climatic hands that press her temples and my chest
Enter the night that she came home - Forever
Oh... She's the only one that makes me sad
She is everything and more, the solemn hypnotic
My dahlia, bathed in possession - She is home to me
I get nervous, perverse, when I see her, it's worse
But the stress is astounding
It's now or never, she's coming home - Forever
Oh... She's the only one that makes me sad
Hard to say what caught my attention
Fixed and crazy - Aphid attraction
Carve my name in my face - To recognize
Such a pheromone cult to terrorize
I won't let this build up inside of me... (x4)
I'm a slave and I am a master
No restraints and unchecked collectors
I exists through my need - To self oblige
She is something in me - That I despise
I won't let this build up inside of me... (x8)
She isn't real - I can't make her real (x4)

Pulse Of The Maggots
This is the year where hope fails you
The test subjects run the experiments
And the bastards you know, is the hero you hate
But cohesing is possible if we try
There's no reason, there's no lesson
No time like the present, tell me right now
What have you got to lose, what have you got to lose
Except your soul..... Who's with us!!??
I fight, for the unconventional
my right, and it's unconditional
I can only be as real as I can
The disadvantage is I never knew the plan
This isn't just a way to be a martyr
I can't walk alone any longer
I fight for the ones who can't fight
And if I lose, at least I tried
We, we are the new diabolic
We, we are the bitter bucolic
If I have to give my life you can have it
We, we are the pulse of the maggots
I won't be the inconsequential
I won't be the wasted potential
I can make it as severe as I can
Until you realize, you'll never take a stand
It isn't just a one-sided version
We've dealt with the manic subversion
I won't let the truth be perverted
And I won't leave another victim deserted
We, we are the new diabolic
We, we are the bitter bucolic
If I have to give my life you can have it
We, we are the pulse of the maggots
Do you understand? (yes)
Do you understand? (yes)
Do you understand? (yes)
Do you understand? (yes!)
Say it again, say it again (we won't die) x8
We fight 'til no one can fight us
We live and no one can stop us
We pull when we're pushed too far
And the advantage is, the bottom line is
We never had to fight in the first place
We only had to spit back in their face
We won't walk alone any longer
What doesn't kill us only makes us stronger
We, we are the new diabolic
We, we are the bitter bucolic
If I have to give my life you can have it
We, we are the pulse of the maggots
Do you understand? (yes)
Do you understand? (yes)
Do you understand? (yes)
Do you understand? (yes!)
Say it again, say it again (we won't die) x4

Before I Forget
Stapled shut - Inside an outside world
And I'm sealed in tight - Bizarre but right at home
I'm claustrophobic - Closing in
And I'm catastrophic - Not again
I'm smeared across the page and doused in gasoline
I wear you like a stain, yet I'm the one who's obscene
Catch me up on all your sordid little insurrections
I've got no time to lose - I'm just caught up in all the cattle
Fray the strings...throw the shapes...hold your breath...listen
I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget that
I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget that
I'm ripped across the ditch and settled in the dirt
And I wear you like a stitch, yet I'm the one who's hurt
Pay attention to your twisted little indiscretions
I've got no right to win - I'm just caught up in all the battles
Locked in clutch... Pushed in place...Hold your breath...listen
I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget that
I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget that
My end, it justifies my means
All I ever do is delay
My every attempt to evade
The end of the road and my end
It justifies my means
All I ever do is delay
My every attempt to evade
The end of the road !!
I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget that
I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget that
I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget that
Yeah! (x7)
Ohhhh!!!

Vermillion Pt. 2
She seemed dressed in all of me
Stretched across my shame
All the torment and the pain
Leaked through and covered me
I'd do anything to have her for myself
Just to have her for myself
Now I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
When she makes me sad
She is everything to me
The unrequited dream
The song that no one sings
The Unattainable
She's a myth I have to believe in
All I need to make it real is one more reason
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
When she makes me sad
But I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
A catch in my throat
Choke
Torn into pieces
I won't - No
I don't wanna be this
But I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
Won't let this build up inside of me
She isn't real
I can't make her real
She isn't real
I can't make her real

The Virus of Life
I can see you but you can't see me
I could touch you and you wouldn't even feel me
Wait and second and you'll settle down
I'm just waiting 'til you really let you guard down
You're relaxed, you're sublime, you're amazing
You don't even know the danger you're facing
If I'm quiet, I'll slide up behind you
And if you hear me, I'll enjoy trying to find you
I've been with you all day
I'm trying to stay calm
I'm impatient and it's really hard to breathe
I'm going to empty you and fill you in with me
Just keep the violence down
Not yet - Don't make a sound
Oh, god I'm feeling it
It's reaching fever pitch
My skin is caving in
My heart is driving out
No mercy, no remorse
Let nature take it's course
Watching - Bring me to my knees
Waiting - I am your disease
Lover - Set my symptom free
Covered - You won't feel a thing
You can't stop me
I'm sweating through my veins
I'm trying to hold on
It's unbearable, it's almost worse for me
I'm gonna tear you apart and make you see - Make you see
Watching - Bring me to my knees
Waiting - I am your disease
Lover - Set my symptom free
Covered - You won't feel a thing
You can't stop me
This is the Virus - The Virus of life
This is inside us, the crisis, the knife
This is the Virus - The Virus of life
This is inside us, the crisis, the knife
It's almost time to play / It's time to be afraid
I can't control the pain / I can't control in vain
Oh, god I'm ready now / You're almost ready now
I'm gonna love you now / I'm gonna put you down
I see you in the dark / I see you all the way
I see you in the light / I see you plain as day
I wanna touch your face / I wanna touch your soul
I wanna wear your face / I wanna burn your soul
Watching - Bring me to my knees
Waiting - I am your disease
Lover - Set my symptom free
Covered - You won't feel a thing
You can't stop me

Danger - Keep away
We too feel alone (x6)
That place in my mind
Is that space that you call mine
That place in my mind
Is that space that you call mine
Where have I been all this time
Lost enslaved fatal decline
I've been waiting for this too fool (Good)
The pieces are only as good as the whole
Severed myself from my own lie
Cut out the only thing that was right
What If I never saw you again
I'd die right next to you in the end
That place in my mind
Is that space that you call mine
That place in my mind
Is that space that you call mine
I won't let you walk away
Without hearing what I have to say
Without hearing what I have to say
Without hearing what I have to say

Disasterpiece

I wanna slit your throat and fuck the wound
I wanna push my face in and feel the swoon
I wanna dig inside, find a little bit of me
Cuz the line gets crossed when you don't come clean

My wormwood meets your pesticide
You'll never get out, coz you were never alive
I am infinite, I am the infant finite
Come a little closer and I'll show you why

(NO ONE IS - SAFE)
Noises, noises, people make noises
people make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to NOTHING

How does it feel to be locked inside another dream
That never had a chance of being realized?
What the fuck are you lookin' at?
I'll tell you what you're lookin' at
Everyone you ever fuckin' laughed at

Look in my eyes for the answers - typical
I can feel it underneath like a miracle
Everybody in the world needs more than
Lies and consequences to poser them
Once again, it's me and no one else
I can't remember if there was a someone else
It's not mine, it's not fair, it's outta my hands
And it's shaking - you'll never take me

(NO ONE IS - SAFE)
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to NOTHING

NOTHING!

(HATE) Hate ain't enough to describe me
(SCREAM) Somewhere between screaming and crying
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supoosed to be

(WHY) When do I get to know why?
(BITTER) Bitter as the stink of when I try
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be
Pull your hands away

I'm gone - goodbye - it's so depressing
Withering away
Take a look - inside - my soul is missing
All I have is dead, so I'll take you with me
Feel like I'm erased - so kill me just in case

(COVET) Everything around me's mine
(STY) Can't see through the sties in my eyes
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

(DOWN) Scratching and clawing all the way
(STAY) You won't let me fucking stay
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

(LIVE) Is there another way to live?
(DIE) Cuz it's the only way to die
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be


My Plague

I'm in conniptions for the final act you came here for
The one derivative you manage is the one I abhor
I need a minute to elaborate for everyone the
Everyday bullshit things that you have done

Your impossible ego fuck is like a
Megalomaniacal tab on my tongue
You fuckin' touch me I will rip you apart
I'll reach in and take a bite out of that
Shit you call a heart...

I don't mind being ogled, ridiculed
Made to feel miniscule
If you consider the source, it's kinda pitiful
The only thing you really know about me is...
...that's all you'll ever know

I know why you blame me (yourself)
I know why you plague me (yourself)

I'm turning it around like a knife in the shell
I wanna understand why, but I'm hurting myself
I haven't seen a lotta reasons to stop it
I can't just drop it
I'm just a bastard, but at least I admit it
At least I admit it

I know why you blame me (yourself)
I know why you plague me (yourself)

Kill you - fuck you - i will never be you
Kill you - fuck you - i will never be you
I can't fuckin' take it anymore
A snap of the synapse
And now it's fuckin' war
Kill you - fuck you - i will never be you


Everything Ends

You are wrong, fucked, and overrated
I think I'm gonna be sick and it's your fault
This is the end of EVERYTHING
You are the end of EVERYTHING
I haven't slept since I woke up
And found my whole life was a lie, motherfucker
This is the end of EVERYTHING
You are the end of EVERYTHING

Shallow skin, I can paint with pain
I mark the trails on my arms with your disdain
Everyday it's the same - I LOVE, YOU HATE
But I guess I don't care any more...
Fix my problems with the blade
While my eyes turn from blue to gray
God, the worst thing happened to me today
But I guess I don't care anymore...

You are wrong, fucked, and overrated
I think I'm gonna be sick and it's your fault
This is the end of EVERYTHING
You are the end of EVERYTHING
I haven't slept cince I woke up
And found my whole life was a lie, motherfucker
This is the end of EVERYTHING
You are the end of EVERYTHING

My flaws are the only thing left that's pure
Can't really live, can't really endure
Everything I see reminds me of her
God I wish I didn't care anymore
The more I touch, the less I feel
I'm lying to myself that it's not real
Why is everybody making such a big fucking deal?
I'm never gonna care anymore

What the hell am I doing?
Is there anyone left in my life?
What the fuck was I thinking?
Anybody want to tell me I'm fine?
Where the hell am I going?
Do I even need a reason to hide?
I am only betrayed
I am only conditioned to die


The Heretic Anthem

8...7...6...6...6...5...4...3...2...1...
I'm a pop star threat and I'm not dead yet
Got a super dred bet with an angel drug head
Like a dead beat winner. I want to be a sinner
An idolized bang for the industry killer.
A hideous man that you don't understand
Throw a suicide party and I'm guaranteed to fucking snap.
It's evilsonic, It's pornoholic.
Breakdowns, Obscenities, It's all I wanna be.
If You're 555 then I'm 666.
If you're 555 I'm 666.
If you're 555 then I'm 666 (what's it like to be a heretic)
If you're 555 I'm 666. (what's it like to be a heretic)
Everybody's so infatuated
Everybody's so completely sure of what we are
Everybody defamates from miles away
But face to face, they haven't got a thing to say
I bleed for this and I bleed for you
Still you look in my face like I'm sombody new
TOY - Nobody wants anything I've got
Which if fine becuase you're made of
Everything - I'm - NOT!
If You're 555 then I'm 666.
If you're 555 I'm 666.
If you're 555 then I'm 666 (what's it like to be a heretic)
If you're 555 I'm 666. (what's it like to be a heretic)
30 Seconds, 16, 8, 4, lemme tell you why
I haven't the slightest, I'm teaching your brightest
They're listening, clamoring
All the money in the world can't buy me.
GO AHEAD. LIE TO ME.
Tell me again how you're tortured
I wanna know how you followed your orders so well
You're full of SHIT
You had a dream but this ain't it.
If You're 555 then I'm 666.
If you're 555 I'm 666.
If you're 555 then I'm 666 (what's it like to be a heretic)
If you're 555 I'm 666. (what's it like to be a heretic)


Gently

Gently, my mind escapes into the relaxing
world of pleasure, a pleasure that'll take
my mind off the reality of my life,
my past life... life as I know it now.

And whatever may come, it slowly
disappears to somewhere in the back
of my mind. It will remain there,
until I wish to retrieve it.

Yes, I will stay here for a while,
for I need the break. A break from the
pressures of life, and everything
that lays in the palm of life's hands.

This mode is incredible. It's out of
this world. Too bad I must always leave it...
... but that's life.

Left Behind

I've known faces that have disapeared in time
Find me wrapped in glass and slowly soaked in lime
All My friends have pictures made to make you cry
I've seen this and wondered what I've done to calcify

(I ignore you)
As I close my eyes I feel it all slipping away
(I come toward you)
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away

I can't stand to see your thalidomide robot face
Don't even try it! You had to be a liar just to
infiltrate me - I'm still drowing

(I ignore you)
As I close my eyes, i feel it all slipping away
(I come toward you)
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away

...Take...this...away...
I can feel it on my mouth
I can taste you on my fingers
I can hear you like the holy ghost
And kill you if you get to close


The Shape

Too tragic to stay with you
Too static to try for you
These scars, they swallow hard
The part of the past that's hollow and dark
Too horrid to kill for you
Too sordid to die with you
Unstable as always, come down
Everything else is just dust and sound

SEPARATE (I've lost my only way)
SEPARATE (I've lost my only way)
SEPARATE (I've lost my only way)
SEE THE SHAPE (Broken and thrown away)

I'd give it all away, come take it all away
You can't resent the fear
Somebody tell me how I got here
I'd give it all to you, come take it, it's all for you
The noise is so damn loud, but
Everything else is just dust and sound

I don't wanna do this anymore
Everything's shit - everything's been taken
Forsaken - gotta start it over cuz I'm hearing it
Backwards - DON'T make sense - DON'T feel better
Who's better? It's not that simple
You gotta figure it out before you make things difficult
It's not a word, it's a problem, the problem was easy
Draw your conclusions - solutions?
Anybody else wanna run?
Contorting, distorting - I am undone
One less propaganda nightmare fixture
Are you getting the picture?


I Am Hated

The whole world is my enemy - and I'm a walking target
Two times the devil with all the significance
Dragged and raped for the love of a mob
I can't stay - because I can't be stopped
Eat motherfuckers alive who cross us
I know you're all tired of the same ol' bosses
Let me tell you how it's gonna be
I'm gonna kill anyone who steps up in front of me

Welcome to the same ol' fucking scam
Same ol' shit in a dead fad

Everybody wants to be so hard
Are you real or a second rate sports card?
They all lost their dad or their wife just died
They never got to go outside - SHUT UP
Nobody gives a fuck
it doesn't change the fact that you suck

(We are) The anti-cancer
(We are) The only answer
Stripped down, we want you dead
But what's inside of me, you'll never know
(We are) Bipolar gods
(We are) You know what we are
My life was always shit
And I don't think I need this anymore

Now I'm not pretty and I'm not cool
But I'm fat and I'm ugly and proud - so fuck you
Standing out is the new pretension
Sreamline the (sic)ness, half-assed aggression
You gotta see it to believe it, we all got conned
All the mediocre sacred cows we spawne
Put your trust in the mission
We will not repent - this is our religion

(We are) The anti-cancer
(We are) The only answer
Stripped down, we want you dead
But waht's inside of me, you'll never know
(We are) Bipolar gods
(We are) You know what we are
My life was always shit
And I don't think I need this anymore

I AM HATED
YOU ARE HATED
WE ARE HATED

Everything sucks and I can prove it
Everybody dies, shuffle on, remove it
Idividuals, indispensable
I'm the paradox deity vessel
...the other side holds no secret
But this side is done, I don't need it
Before you go, you should know you're breaking down
You'll be rotten by the time you're underground

(We are) The anti-cancer
(We are) The only answer
Stripped down, we want you dead
But what's inside of me, you'll never know
(We are) Bipolar gods
(We are) You know what we are
My life was always shit
And I don't think I need this anymore

(We Are) The source of conscience
(We Are) Distorted sentients
There's only one thing left
And I can't leave until it's sated
(We Are) The absolute
(We Are) Controlling you
They're closing in, I can't escape
I AM HATED


Skin Ticket

Zero and zero is nothing but zero
Cancer and people conspire together
Running and running and going forever
Collected and sampled, starving for zero

Come see my cage - built in my grain

Minus the inside and minus the circle
Inhabit the riddle and fill in the hovel
Wherein and herein, between us and near us
Zero and zero is nothing but zero

Come see my cage - built-in migraine

Keeping myself alive...
through your EMPATHY


New Abortion

I'm ethereal, my children are legion, serial
They stick to my skin like beloved cysts
I tear away with my nails and teeth and fists
Touch the hands of inverted saints
Follow my heart through the threaded pain
Callow man is a sentinel screaming
I see the future; the future is bleeding

Sores, every goddamn minute I can feel 'em now
Like a virus, you will never kill me now
Goin' underground, comin' on like hepatitis
We're out - and you can't reshape us
Another bug in the construct
Tearin' up the main bus B
Zeros and ones are everything - execute me

Everywhere you look, it's like they know
Their fingerprints are hidden by CONTROL
This is where the line is drawn, see
YOU CAN'T TAKE MY SOUL AWAY FROM ME

What do you need to see? Ya feel the impact?
Gotta retract - everybody get back
What is this? It's like a big conspiracy
Fields of dejected morbid progeny
They always say that it's always our fault
But everything we say is taken with a grain of salt
Man, it's always the same, if we talk or complain
We only wanna upset the balance
How's it feel to be the New Abortioin?
The only generation to suffer extortion

Everywhere you look, it's like they know
Their fingerprints are hidden by CONTROL
This is where the line is drawn, see
YOU CAN'T TAKE MY SOUL AWAY FROM ME

YOU CAN'T TAKE MY SOUL AWAY FROM ME


Metabolic

Gone - I couldn't murder your promise
Right before my eyes
The revolutions of my psychosis
Kept me outta the way

Once - inside - all I hold is ash...

Fail - suppressing every feeling
I'm in so much pain
I have every fuckin' right to hate you
I can't take it!

The hardest part was knowing that I could never be you
Now all I do is sit around and wish I could forget you

My demise - I took a life worth living and
Made it worth a mockery
I deny - I fold, but they keep on coming
(Stop) I'm always ready to die
But you're killing me

Who are you to me? Who am I to you?
Is this a lesson in nepotistic negligence?
By default, you are my only link to the outside
Psychosomatic suicide
Where were you when I was down?
Can you show me a way...
To face everyday with this face - goodbye

My demise - I took a life worth living and
Made it worth a mockery
I deny - I fold, but they keep on coming
(Stop) I'm always ready to die
But you're killing me

When I blur my eyes, they make the whole
World breath - I see you fucking me
And I am absolutely controlly every urge
To mutilate - the one and only answer
So much for memories...
I wanna derss in your insecurities
And be the perfect you - I'm through
I'm out-stretched out for all to loathe
Here we go - the ultimate irony


Iowa

Relax...
it's over,
you belong to me,
I fill your mouth with dirt
Relax...it's over,
you can never leave
I take your second digit with me...
Love... You are...my first,
I can breath I find you fascinating
You are...my favorite,
lay you down to sleep
It's all that I can do to stop...
Love... So blue...so broken,
paper doll decays I haven't left you yet
So cold...subversive,
your eyes are full of bleach
Tomorrow,I will go away again...
Love...

YOU ARE MINE,
YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MINE,

I CAN TEAR YOU APART,
I CAN RECOMBINE YOU.
ALL I WANT IS TO COVET YOU ALL
YOU BELONG TO ME
I WILL KILL YOU TO LOVE YOU.
(LOVE)

"The whole thing, I think, is sick."



(Sic)

"Here comes the pain!"

Enemy - Show me what you wanna be
I can handle anything
Even if I can't handle you
Readily - Either way it better be
Don't you fuckin' pity me
Get up, get off...
What the hell am I sayin'?
I don't know about malevolent
Sure as hell decadent
I want somebody to step up, step off
Walls! Let me fall! FUCK YOU ALL!
Get a grip, don't let me slip 'til I drop the ball

I - I want it all!
Fuck this shit, I'm sick of it
You're goin' down, this is a war!

Who the fuck am I to criticize your twisted
state of mind?
You're leavin' me suspect - I'm leavin' you grotesque
Feels like a burn from which you never learn
Cause and effect, you jealous ass
Press your face against the glass - SUFFER!

I - I want it all!
Fuck this shit, I'm sick of it
You're goin' down, this is a war!
I've just begun
It's about that time
Gotta get mine

YOU CAN'T KILL ME
CUZ I'M ALREADY
INSIDE YOU

SICK!


Eyeless

(Yeah)

Insane - Am I the only muthafucka with a brain?
I'm hearing voices but all they do is complain
How many times have you wanted to kill
Everything and everyone, Say you'll do it but never will

You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes (x3)

I am my Father's son
He's a phantom, a mystery and that leaves me
Nothing!
How many times have you wanted to die?
It's too late for me. All you have to do is get rid of me!

You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes (x3)

It's all in your head
It's all in my head
It's all in your head
yeah

I tried - You lied to me for so long
Everywhere I go, there's a sense of it
Freak on my antics and give me a choice
Doesn't matter if I give a shit
It's shit that you gave me

You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes (x3)

It's all in your head
It's all in my head
It's all in your head
yeah

Do you wanna feel pain? Takin' my name in vain
Caring never felt so lame inside
Anybody else got pride? Do you wanna take my life?
Maybe I'll reverse my ride
Who the fuck are you? Fuck you!
Better suck it up cuz you bled through
Better get away from me
Stay the fuck away from me!

I feel safe - Seems your saved (x2)

Look me in my brand new eye (x3)

(Motherfucker)

Look me in my brand new eye (x3)
Look me in my brand new


Wait And Bleed

I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander out where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...

Goodbye!

I wipe it off on tile, the light is brighter this time
Everything is 3D blasphemy
My eyes are red and gold, the hair is standing straight up
This is not the way I pictured me
I CAN'T CONTROL MY SHAKES!
How the hell did I get here?
Something about this, so very wrong...
I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn't like this
Is it a dream or a memory?

GET OUTTA MY HEAD CUZ I DON'T NEED THIS!
Why I didn't I see this?
I'm a victim - Manchurian Candidate
I - HAVE - SINNED - BY - JUST
Makin' my mind up and takin' your breath away

GOODBYE!

You haven't learned a thing
I haven't changed a thing
My flesh was in my bones
The pain was always free

I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander out where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...

AND IT WAITS FOR YOU!


Surfacing

Fuck you all!!!

Running out of ways to run
I can't see, I can't be
Over and over and under my skin
All this attention is doing me in..

Fuck it all! Fuck this world!
Fuck everything that you stand for!
Don't belong! Don't exist!
Don't give a shit!
Don't ever judge me!

Picking through the parts exposed
Taking shape, taking shag
Over and over and under my skin
All this momentum is doing me in!

Fuck it all! Fuck this world!
Fuck everything that you stand for!
Don't belong! Don't exist!
Don't give a shit!
Don't ever judge me!

....and don't you fuckin' Judge me!

You got all my love, livin' in your own hate
Show you nuthin', but I ain't holdin' back
Every damn word I say is a sneak attack
When I get my hands on you
Ain't a fucking thing you can do
Get this cuz you're never gonna get me
I am the very disease you pretend to be

I am the push that makes you move (x4)

Fuck it all! Fuck this world!
Fuck everything that you stand for!
Don't belong! Don't exist!
Don't give a shit!

Don't ever judge me!


Spit It Out

Since you never gave a damn in the first place
Maybe it's time you had the tables turned
Cuz in the interest of all involved I got the problem solved
And the verdict is guilty...

...MAN NEARLY KILLED ME
Steppin' where you fear to tread
Stop, drop and roll - you were DEAD FROM THE GIT-GO!
BIG MOUTH FUCKER - STUPID COCKSUCKER
Are you scared of me now? Then you're dumber than I thought
Always is, never was
Foundation made of piss and vinegar
Step to me, I'll smear ya -Think I fear ya? BULLSHIT!
Just another dumb punk chompin' at this tit
Is there any way to break through the noise?
Was it something that I said that got you bent?
It's gotta be that way if you want it
Sanity, Literal Profanity HIT ME!

SPIT - IT OUT
All you wanna do is drag me down
All I wanna do is stamp you out

Maybe it's the way you spread a lotta rumour fodder
Keepin' all your little spies and leavin' when you realise
Step up, fairy
I guess it's time to bury your ass with the chrome
Straight to the dome
You heard me right, bitch, I didn't stutter
If you know what's good - sit, shut up and beg, brother
Backstab - Don't you know who you're dissin'?
Side swipe - we know THE ASS THAT YOU'RE KISSIN'!
BIGIDY-BIGGIDY BITCH BOY, HALFWAY HAUSER
Can't hear shit cuz I keep gettin' louder
Step up, and you get a face full o' tactic
Lippin' off hard, goin' home in a basket
You got no pull, no power, no NUTHIN'
Now you start shit? Well, ain't that somethin'?
Payoffs don't protect, and you can't hide if you want
But I'LL FIND YOU - Comin' up behind you!

SPIT - IT OUT
All you wanna do is drag me down
All I wanna do is stamp you out

'Bout time I set this record straight
All the needlenose punchin' is makin' me irate
Sick o' my bitchin' fallin' on deaf ears
Where YOU gonna be in the next five years?
The crew and all the fools, and all the politix
Get your lips ready, gonna gag, gonna make you sick
You got DICK when they passed out the good stuff
Bam
Are you sick of me? GOOD ENOUGH - HAD ENOUGH

FUCK ME! I'm all out of enemies!
FUCK ME! I'm all out of enemas!

SPIT - IT OUT
All you wanna do is drag me down
All I wanna do is stamp you out


Tattered And Torn

Kill Me
Tattered and torn
Something aches
Tattered and torn
Bad things slither
Tattered and torn
My floors are burning down
Tattered and torn
And I can't find a window

Tattered and torn
This is medieval
Tattered and torn
This is cerebral
Tattered and torn
Suffocated
Tattered and torn
Melodramatic

Tattered and torn
Driven to the verge of
Tattered and torn
I make you my enemy
The nerves you sever
Tattered and torn
Can serve you better

Tattered and torn
In the blink of an eye
Tattered and torn
In the space of a second
Tattered and torn
Open my wrists
Tattered and torn
Give me my lessons

Tearing myself apart
From the things that make me hurt!


AND IT WAITS FOR YOU!


Frail Limb Nursery

She lay as though she were in a trance
With her long eyelashes fluttering like she was dreaming
She said to him "I lie beyond the sea"
And then all of a sudden her head dipped back and she vanished

Gone, gone without a trace
Gone

She's never coming back
Do you know what it's like to live with that?
No one knows what it's like
The only one who knew me, gone.


Purity

(Naaahhhh)

Maze...psychopathic daze...I create this waste
Back away from tangents, on the verge of drastic
ways...can't escape this place...I deny your face
Sweat gets in my eyes, I think I'm slowly dying

Put me in a homemade cellar
Put me in a hole for shelter
Someone hear me please, all I see is hate
I can hardly breathe, and I can hardly take it

Hands on my face overbearing I can't get out (x2)

Lost...ran at my own cost...hearing laughter, scoffed
Learning from the rush, detached from such and such
Bleak...all around me, weak...listening, incomplete
I am not a dog, but I'm the one your dogging

I am in a buried kennel
I have never felt so final
Someone find me please, losing all reserve
I am fucking gone, I think I'm fucking dying

Hands on my face overbearing I can't get out (x2)

You all stare, but you'll never see
There is something inside me (4)

There is something in you I despise.

Cut me - show me - enter - I am
willing and able and never any danger to myself
Knowledge in my pain, knowledge in my pain
Or was my tolerance a phase?
Empathy, out of my way
I can't die (x4)

You all stare, but you'll never see
There is something inside me (4)

There is something in you I
despise (x3)

Purity (x8)


Liberate

Liberate - My madness
(One of me, all of you)
Liberate - My madness
I just want to...

Section off myself
Put a wall up/What the hell have I done
Keep the dog at bay
Survive by saving me!
Values and the game
Not a fuck-up - Not a part of your lie
I am one, I am all - I'm above and beyond!

Back off of the shit
Stand off or I'll spit
So soft, you forget
Your garbage in is garbage out
You don't give a shit
I won't play the fit
Get off, get on this
Your garbage in is garbage out

Liberate my madness...

Liberate - My madness
(One of me, all of you)
Liberate - My madness
I just want to...

I am not ashamed
What is vital, isn't always humane
You can break in vain
But you can't break away
Even in my face
Lotta bullshit, not alotta the truth
I can't see from here
But I can smell your fear

Back off of the shit
Stand off or I'll spit
So soft, you forget
Your garbage in is garbage out
You don't give a shit
I won't play the fit
Get off, get on this
Your garbage in is garbage out

Saved - You're such a slave - I don't expect a
Name - You don't care - I wasn't witness -
I can't be a part of a system such as this
Hard eyes - Glow right - In my - Darkness - Again
With the sickness, rengade blisters, sisters,
Salivate, litigate, liberate, madness, sadness
Fuck this - How long have I had this?
I don't need this - Outta my business
Insert, engage, betrayed, MY GOD
FRAUD

Liberate - My madness
(One of me, all of you)
Liberate - My madness
I just want to...


Prosthetics

Even if you run... I will find you
I decided I wanted you
Now I know...I NEED
If you can't be bought, tougher than I thought
Keep in mind - I am with you
Never left out fate, can't concentrate
Even if you run...

YOU WILL BE MINE!
Ah, fucking you will be mine!
Ah, fucking you will be mine!
Ah, fucking you will be mine!

I FOUND YOU

Leanin' out of an open window
You laughed (my fingers clenched)
Too perfect, far too careless
I couldn't help myself - I just took you

DAMMIT MAN I KNEW IT WAS A MISTAKE (You brought it outta me)

Better make yourself at home
You're here to stay
You won't bother me...If you let me bother you
All the doors are locked, all the windows shut
KEEP IN MIND - I watch you
Never leave my side, never leave me, fucker
Even if you run

What the fuck is different? Man, I can't believe I'm doin' this

DAMMIT MAN I KNEW IT WAS A MISTAKE (You brought it outta me)


No Life

My freedom is best
Whole country's on house arrest
And everyone's a suspect
You can't feel the flow because you died
Face down on a "suicide"
The muthafucker's on self-destruct
Nobody guardin' your back, it's all a front
SAVE THIS! MY RAGE IS BLISS!
I'M TAKIN' NAMES AND GETTIN' PISSED!

Where's Chuck D when ya need him?
You ain't shit, just a puddle on the
Bed spread
The maniac psycho
Cool j screamed the shit
But I still can't believe it
Man, it's funny that you scare me so
Just enough to fuck me up again and again
Hard life is hard as hell
Better back the fuck on up
Cuz this is...

No kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(I've got to get out!)
It's no kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(You can't blame me!)

Can't be real no more - Your mask is skin and bone
Savor every flavor you want cuz it's not your own
Bad-ass at bat, man
Forget about the battle, it's the war we gotta win
Breathe! Amer-cult, Breathe! One more - Seethe!
Freak like you gotta pair
Won't be my fault
When you're painted in the corner of a no-good life
This is...

No kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(I've got to get out!)
It's no kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(You can't blame me!)

I can't remember, I don't understand,
Is it malice that makes you this way?
Carry it with you 'til someone forgives you
I laugh cuz there's nothing to say
YOU CAN'T BEGIN TO CONSIDER THE
PALPABLE HATE IN THE AIR WHEN YOU'RE HERE
None of us wonder what weather you're under
You're making it perfectly clear!

Lights ain't on - shit ain't right
Never had peace so I had to fight
Can you look in my eyes when my back's against
The wall, slash at my eyes, surprise, you'll never get me
You're all reality and sound bites
And the freedom is never in plain sight
The feelings, the question, the price is too
Human, for fucking sake - This is...

No kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(I've got to get out!)
It's no kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(You can't blame me!)


Diluted

I'm cold, I'm ugly
I'm always confused by everything
I can stare into a thousand eyes
But every smile hides a bold-faced lie

It itches, it seethes, it festers and breathes
My heros are dead, they died in my head
Thin out the herd, squeeze out the pain
Something inside me has opened up again

Thoughts of me exemplified
All the little flaws I have denied
Forget today, forget whatever happened
Everyday I see a little more of overall deficiencies
I'm nothing short of being one complete catastrophe

What the hell - did I - do to deserve - all of this?

I save all the bullets from ignorant minds
Your insults get stuck in my teeth as they grind
Way past good taste, on our way to bad omens
I decrease, while my symptoms increase

God what the fuck is wrong
You act like you knew it all along
Your timing sucks, your silence is a blessing
All I ever wanted out of you was
Something you could never be
Now take a real good look at
What you've fucking done to me

What the hell - did I - do to deserve - all of this? (x2)

Gimme any reason why I'd need you, boy
Gimme any reason not to fuck you up
Gimme any reason why I'd need you, bitch
Gimme any reason not to fuck you up

I see you in me

I keep my scars from prying eyes
Incapable of ever knowing why
Somebody breathe, I've got to have an answer

Why am I so fascinated by
Bigger pictures, better things
But I don't care what you think
You'll never understand me

What the hell - did I - do to deserve - all of this? (repeat)

Fuck! le man, hard step, no fate


Only One

Pain - made to order

I'm not the second coming, I'm the first wave
Better get an army, cuz the fire left me unscathed
You betcha bottom dollar I'm the top of the shit pile
So stick around cuz I'll get to you in just a few
Step off the achtung, get back or get stung
Idiotic sense of yourself, are you that dumb?
Entire legion of me, totalitarian
The one and only muthafucka, top of the world man

Cuz I can't stand it, planned it, gonna crash land it
In other words, consider me branded
Another version of me, another version of you
Both barrels - what you gonna do?

All I hear is human noise
You made your own fuckin' choice
I belong to only me
Silence for my revelry

I can over die over time
Filthy hands, stay away from mine
Every reason is a right to hate
Painful clutch - death is fine, gimme mine

Only one of us walks away

Somebody explain this
You don't care cuz you don't exist
What the fuck is this another joke?
Reckoning!


Scissors

I play doctor for five minutes flat
Before I cut my heart open...and let the air out
Three bugs, a pound of dust
Some wind spilled before me
In the strangest manner that had
Broke away my tear spout

As I lie here
With my tongue spread wide open
A black widow had offered me
A sweatheart tube
As I injected
The candid heart that I selected
She said don't hesitate
Just do what you have to do!

It's hard to stay between the lines of skin
Just cuz I have nerves, don't mean that I can feel
I wasn't very much fun to be with anyway
Just let the blood run red cuz I can't feel!

Biding my time until the time is right
Biding my time until the time is right
Biding my time until the time is right
Biding my time...
It's time

Someone?
Someone inside me
Everyone against
Everyone beside me
Crawling away the pieces
Scrathing away the patches
One more, two more
Everyone, once more
One more, two more
Everyone, once more
Inside the places that I hide from you
I want to see you ?
You are the only that I would like to see before me

You want it! You need it!

No way!

I don't you?

I wanna die!
I rather die!
I wanna die!
You bitch!
You bitch!
You bitch!
I don't need you anymore!

My time!


Me Inside (Bonus Track)

Giving in to what has got me
Feeling claustrophobic, scarred
Severed me from all emotion
Life is just too fucking hard
Snap! Your face was all it took
Cuz this need ain't doin' me no good
Fall on my face, but can't you see?
is killing me!

Tearing me / Inside

Too far gone, I'm catatonic
Leaving you to criticize
Empty shell and running naked
All alone... lobotomized
Back and forth between my hang-ups
It isn't easy to be hated
Where do ya go? Whaddya do?
Simpleton, impromptu, crazy eight
I never cared, not once
Gotta get away!

Tearing me / Inside

I wasn't promised a thing
You keep mocking me
But you will never again
Before you know - after you're gone

Gone

Somos feos apestamos y pero reinamos joto muthafucka

Interloper (Demo) (Bonus Track)

Many have come and gone,
Still left out of the guttural swansong
Takin' nothin' but the best in the area,
Givin' me grief, but fucker I'll stare you -
down, 2-3 you're out of there,
Maybe it's me but I'm frantic, in a panic
Ain't never had a problem since you stopped comin' here
Big man walkin' but bitch, I'm still talkin'

Can't you see it's gotta be this way?

Gimme any reason why I'd need you (boy)
Gimme any reason why I'd need you (boy)
Gimme any reason why I'd need you (boy)
Gimme any reason not to fuck you up

Ain't gonna leave and you know I'm never gone fade,
Here it comes again, gotta burn again
Time now, throw down, don't dirty me,
Right on your ugly-ass face cuz

I aint the one who let you in,
And I ain't the one who set you off
But I know damn well when someone's pushing my buttons,
Let tell you somethin', I'LL PUSH YOU BACK!

"Soon as that camera goes off, he's gonna fuck that little dog."

Gimme any reason why I'd need you (boy)
Gimme any reason why I'd need you (boy)
Gimme any reason why I'd need you (boy)
Gimme any reason not to fuck you up

Gimme any reason why I'd need you (bitch)
Gimme any reason why I'd need you (bitch)
Gimme any reason why I'd need you (bitch)
Gimme any reason not to fuck you up

You're made of flesh....

Despise (Demo) (Bonus Track)

Despise!!!

Maze...psychopathic daze...I create this waste
Back away from tangents, on the verge of drastic
ways...can't escape this place...I deny your face
Sweat gets in my eyes, lash out at all I despise

Hands on my face overbearing I can't get out

Lost...ran at my own cost...hearing laughter, scoffed
Learning from the rush, detached from such and such
Bleak...standing on my feet...listening incomplete
I am not a dog, but I'm the one you dog

Hands on my face overbearing I can't get out

Never - ever - surrender - I WANT IT ALL!
Never - ever - surrender - DESPISE
My state of mind gets so one-sided
Despise!

Cut me - show me - enter - I am
Willing and able and never any danger to myself
Knowledge in my pain, knowledge in my pain
Or was my tolerance a phase?
Empathy, out of my way
I can't die

Never - ever - surrender - I WANT IT ALL!
Never - ever - surrender - DESPISE
My state of mind gets so one-sided

Despise!
Truth hurts when it's in your face
Are you afraid of it?


Eeyore (Hidden Track)

Meet the man that made me
Greet the can that I came from
Oh the fucking sacred heart of Jesus
Blew it in the back room
Feelin' like a real goon
Slam the fuck aside, man
I'm on - you're not

I am the great big mouth

Good riddance - though I'm sad to say
I didn't get to kill you
Rhetoric - Better look both ways
I gotta get an arm through
Stain
What the fuck is up? Get the fuck away
Run if you want to
Innocent? You're a guilty conscience
Laugh last - break through
Stain

Prepare you fucker

I don't give a shit, bitch
I don't give a fuck, bitch
I don't understand, bitch
You don't matter
I don't give a shit, man
I don't give a fuck, man
I don't really care, man
I'm the super sized man

Slipknot

Pentex sucks! Pentex sucks!!!
They drain the life force of my tribe
Pentex sucks!

Bonegnawers suck! Bonegnawers suck!!!
They roll around in garbage bins
All Bonegnawers suck!!!

(Pentex is bleeding but night is falling)

The Black Hand sucks! The Black Hand sucks!!!
Those wyrm-tainted bastard leeches
Black Hand sucks!

If I had my way! If I had my way!
I'd rend them all ripped and torn
ALL THAT SUCKS DIES!!!

(Sweet smell bleeding glow is melting me)

I bring my klave into battle
Shifting into Crinos - I slay wyrmfoe
Then I step sideways....

You can't see me, for I hide within the Umbra


Gently

Gently, my mind escapes into the relaxing
world of pleasure, a pleasure that'll take
my mind off the reality of my life,
my past life... life as I know it now.

And whatever may come, it slowly
disappears to somewhere in the back
of my mind. It will remain there,
until I wish to retrieve it.

Yes, I will stay here for a while,
for I need the break. A break from the
pressures of life, and everything
that lays in the palm of life's hands.

This mode is incredible. It's out of
this world. Too bad I must always leave it...
... but that's life.


Do Nothing / Bitch Slap

The system has failed and you have failed with it
No time to care, just time to say "Who gives a shit?"
My mind boils as I've decided I'm through
Fuck your position in life. I'm taking vengence on you

I break down the walls of the political arena
Cast the vote on FN-FAL, yeah, we'll be seein' ya!
(protect yourself)

I want to put a cap right in your asshole
You step to this, you're gonna pass
for a lump of dogshit in the grass
So, be on your way and get some class

Bitchslap

Chop down the big-wigs, shoot the telelvisions, too
My mind boils in life as I've decided I'm through
The guilty of crimes will be hung from the trees
Spit and punches arise from you and me

Sit back and do nothing if that's what you want to do
I will have my reign as king, when I take vengence on you



Only One

Pain. Made to order.
Pain.

Sittin', slappen, scatt'n on my back, try'n to relax
Think'n about the facts of the crack runnin' through the pack
Division in thought about the war to be fought
For tryin' to mend the ranks, still I get no thanks
They say they mean no disrespect, but dis' is in effect
I take to heart the part I play everyday
Uninformed is one thing, stupid is another
Keep runnin' your mouth, but don't call me brother

I'm try'n to find someone on my side
'cause bang'n heads all the time starts to grind at my gear and at my will
But persistent I am still
So when one insubordinate fucker tries to test me
Blow to the head, then an entrail rend
Guts on the floor, but you want more
Show you the strength of the tenth rank
Pain is the only way to teach kids these days

Opened your eyes. Now realized.
Talk back to me. Your punk-ass dies.

Only one of us walks away

I'm all you know. Where will you go.
Valhalla is gone. Along with your soul.

Only one of us walks away

Tattered And Torn

Tattered and Torn
That's where my soul is worn
Tattered and Torn
That's when I was born
Tattered and Torn
I broke away from me
Tattered and Torn
I knocked me to my knees
Tattered and Torn
I drink my own cells
Tattered and Torn
A decomposing well
Tattered and Torn
Roaches in my head
Tattered and Torn
I become the living dead
Tattered and Torn
Tearing myself apart from the
things that make me hurt


Confessions

I know you don't want to see. I know you're not part of me
But you wonder just the same. So I'll let you in on this game
What's on the top is just the beginning of the protectorate that keeps Gaia spinning
It never ends, and with the gifts Luna sends, to the apocalypse
on we defend for the right to live in a perfect world
For our past mistakes, extinction we are hurled
Trying to make amends for the Impergium, as Weaver and the Wyld and a bitch called the Wyrm

(You don't want to know)
All the power of the Wyld that runs through me, yet the reason why is an answer that eludes me

(You don't want to see)
Our viewpoint on what mankind is doing, that black inside when frenzy is brewing

(You don't want to feel)
The sorrow that my heart holds in knowing just where my hopes and dreams are going

(I won't let you be)
Caught up in a war that you are not part of. I sign this letter Your Father, With Love.

I'm trying to set my mind free. I'm sorry you never knew me.
My soul is in recession. Painful to make this confession.



Some Feel

Some feel I don't exist
Never believing in what they see
Some feel that I am not fair
I leave no time for repentance

Tearing the vail Mending the vail
Tearing the vail

Some feel I bare the mark of man
A misguided philosophy
Some feel I kill for fun
I kill for life!

I can't escape what Gaia's left for me / No more
I can't deny the lack of morality / No less
Need time to think need time to think
Need to spill blood so I can drink
Take whay they give take what they give
Some feel I'm dead yet still I live

They don't know I'm immortal
They don't know they're just cattle
They don't know I'm eternal

Eternal


Killers Are Quiet

Cycle of life and death supposedly
goes 'round and 'round yet it stops with me
Glorious hunter of my faith I have sinned
Killers are quiet like the the breath of the wind

Filling the shadows with forms of my own
Raised by kindred of Get I was born
Abomination world in disarray
Killers are quiet when they seek the vitae

Reflection beckons a portal shard
Spiritual quest I must stay in guard
Stepping sideways betweens worlds I shift
Killers are quiet when they are born with the gift

Beautiful Anguish cast out by my race
Now one that's Ageless I save my own face
I write my own laws with Death I break bread
Killers are quiet when they come from my head

Гроулинг-стиль пения в котором играют множество групп. Самая популярная amatory!

Итак, ты решил научиться такой вокальной технике, как гроулинг. Ты уже переслушал кучу песен своих любимых исполнителей и думаешь: "Как же им это удаётся? Как вообще можно извлекать такие звуки?". Возможно, ты уже сам попробовал извлечь из своей глотки что-то подобное, но пока что выходит только невнятное "ууу" или "ыыы". Это нормально, все мы с этого начинали, автор этой статьи в том числе. И моя задача, как автора, в этой статье объяснить максимально доступно, как же научиться издавать те самые рычащие звуки, которыми славятся death metal вокалисты.

Мой дорогой хотящий рычать друг, ты уже наверняка задолбал гугл или яндекс запросами вроде "техника гроула", "как научиться рычать в силе death metal" или "научите меня хрюканине, а-ля guttural grindcore". И что же? Всё, что ты находил, содержало минимум полезной информации так? - Так. Толковые статьи, где грамотно и по теме объясняется, как научиться гроулить, можно по пальцам пересчитать. Весь остальной материал в сети, это, как правило, какой-то бред или вообще флэйм вперемешку с оффтопом (это касается, в первую очередь, форумов, где обсуждают технику гроула).

Я решил обобщить всю имеющуюся у меня теоретическую и практическую информацию, включая, по большей части, собственный опыт, и выложить её в одной статье. Я затрону основные виды рычащего вокала, такие как простой гроул, гроул на расщеплении, гроул в стиле Барни Гринуэй (Napalm Death) и squealing (в простонородье "хрюканина", орудие грайндкорщиков). Также дам несколько советов по изменению звучания и гигиене гроула.


I) Прежде чем начать...
Прежде чем перейти к основному материалу, начнём с нескольких изначальных важных советов.
Если ты думаешь, что для того, чтобы иметь хороший гроул, нужно пачками курить беломор, и вёдрами пить всё, что горит (неразбавленный спирт, водка, портвейн "Три топора", бензин - нужное подчеркнуть, недостающее дописать) - ты ошибаешься. Вообще забудь о том, что разнообразные вредные привычки или вещества, негативно воздействующие на связки, могут поставить или улучшить тебе гроул. У тебя просто прогниёт весь твойголосовой аппарат и ты разнесёшь его в клочья попытками рычать. Для гроула нужно здоровое горло. Кстати, если у тебя ангина или ещё какое-либо заболевание горла - о гроуле забудь до выздоровления.

Далее. Пиво. Кто-то говорит, что оно помогает гроулу. Возможно и помогает, но это скорее допинг. Пиво через какое-то время сушит горло и вызывает привыкание. Со временем ты уже не сможешь без него обходиться, и твой гроул будет нуждаться в пивном подкреплении через каждый куплет. Не думаю, что при исполнении быстрых композиций ты сможешь со скоростью пылесоса выливать в себя по стакану пива между куплетами. Да и при длинном сет-листе, есть большая вероятность того, что ближе к концу выступления ты уже будешь лежать под стойкой микрофона в пьяном делирии, а может быть даже ещё и в луже собственной мочи. Так что, с разумной точки зрения, пиво и гроул несовместимы. Учись работать без допингов.

У многих новичков есть привычка - учась гроулить, они сравнивают себя с каким-нибудь своим идеалом, вроде Денвера, Криса Барнса, Мауризио Иаконо и т.д. Это ошибка. Не бывает двух одинаковых гроулов, запомни. Начинающие часто впадают в отчаяние от того, что у них не получается звучать также, как и их любимцы. Ну извините, мастера гроула рычат уже не первый год, у них куча опыта, голосовой аппарат уже натренирован - это раз. А второе это то, что каждый гроул уникален. Твой в том числе. И если у тебя не получается копировать кого-то, это не значит что у тебя не получается гроулить. К тому же, не забывай, что многие вообще "примачивают" гроул специальными эффектами на студии. Хотя бывает полезно вслушиваться в чей-либо стиль, чтобы найти там что-то интересное для себя с технической точки зрения. Стремись вырабатывать свой уникальный стиль.

Также, подмечу, что обладатели от природы низкого голоса могут извлечь более низкий и сочный гроул, соответственно. Но, если твой голос не такой низкий, как скажем у Тиля Линдемана или Йохана Эдлунда, это вовсе не значит, что тебе не судьба гроулить. Со временем придёт всё.

Итак, подготовительная часть окончена, теперь перейдём к основам.

II) Основы и традиционный гроул

Традиционный гроул используют Funeral Doom metal и Death Metal группы. У первых, кстати, гроул получается особенно красивым, тягучим.
Ну что, будем учиться?

1) Первые звуки.
Не думай, что узнав основы, вы сразу же сможете гроулить вокальные партии Cannibal Corpse или Deicide. Для начала нужно научиться понять сам механизм рыка и освоить извлечение основных звуков.
Многие думают что гроул это орание на низких частотах. А вот и нифига – поори так и посмотрим, что станет с твоими связками. В лучшем случае - охрипнешь.
Традиционный гроул, по сути, ничто иное, как отрыжка. Да-да-да, именно отрыжка - механизм тот же. Кстати, можешь поотрыгивать немного, чтобы прочувствовать, какие именно части твоего горла задействованы в этом звуке. Только делай это подальше от людей, тебя могут неправильно понять.

Итак, научимся извлекать основные звуки. Самый первый и лёгкий шаг - звук "и-и-и" или "у-у-у".
Скажем сразу - не подключай свой голос к звукоизвлечению. Вообще, чтобы гроулить, не обязательно орать. Начни с тихой громкости. Главное - понять механизм, а потом уже, регулируя поток воздуха и/или добавляя свой голос, ты найдёшь нужное звучание.

Касательно того, какие же части горла образуют гроул, сказать вот так вот точно довольно-таки сложно. Есть мнение, что гроул достигается путём направления потока воздуха на мягкое нёбо, кто-то говорит о ложных связках, которые расположены чуть выше основных. Я же склонен ко второму варианту. Многие говорят о важности дыхания. Да, оно важно, но на более поздних этапах. Для начала научись просто извлекать звуки.

Попробуем извлечь звук "у-у-у" или "и-и-и". Скажу сразу - с первого раза может и не получится, но... терпение и труд всё перетрут. Со временем ты адаптируешься как физически, так и психологически и всё будет идти как по маслу.

Итак, нам необходимо сжать горло в определённой точке, чтобы проходящий поток воздуха вызывал необходимую вибрацию, а следовательно и звук. Сильно прижми кончик языка к нёбу, одновременно с этим, подбородок должен выпукло опустится вниз, а кадык подняться вверх, к подбородку. Ты должен ощутить напряжение под нижней челюстью. Итак, теперь, сделай губы трубочкой, как при произношении обычного "у" и выдохни. Просто выдохни. Должен получиться рык, если всё было сделано правильно. Вибрация и рык должны исходить из той области, где у тебя окажется кадык. Звук "и", произносится по той же схеме, только уже без губ трубочкой. При звуке "и" чуть-чуть подними уголки губ, словно слегка улыбаешься. Но только чуть-чуть! Иначе звук смажется. Со временем ты научишься контролю за гроулом.
На начальных этапах, возможно, в горле будет першить, или потянет на кашель. Со временем это пройдёт, как я уже писал выше - ты привыкнешь физически и все неприятные ощущения исчезнут. Если же неприятные ощущения не исчезают после длительного периода упражений - ослабляй сдавливание и напряжение. Больше экспериментов. И о-о-о-очень важный совет - пей воду, связки не должны быть сухими. Это особенно важно на начальных этапах, когда горло ещё не привыкло к новым способам звукоизвлечения. Но и позднее, когда ты овладеете определённым мастерством в рыке, не забывай про воду. Даже если чувствуешь, что всё в порядке и сухости нет, всё равно - сделай пару глотков. И вообще, ты что, думаешь, что на концертах около барабанной установки просто так стоит куча бутылок с водой?

Итак, если тебе удалось овладеть основными звуками, то можно переходить к более сложному - извлечению других гласных. В чем трудность - их нужно извлекать без упора языка. Язык - на начальных этапах это своего рода поддержка. Со временем ты отучишься от него.
Учись фиксировать положение подбородка и кадыка, удерживать необходимое напряжение в горле.
Звуки "о", "а" и прочие пытайтесь извлечь от начальных "и" или "о". Просто убери язык и произноси эти звуки так, как произносишь "о" или "а" в обычной речи. Пока никакого голоса, просто поток воздуха через горло.

Больше практикуйся. И для этого не обязательно рычать на всю квартиру. Просто поставь в нужное положение гроулообразующие части голосового аппарата, и, при небольшом потоке воздуха, гроуль себе что-нибудь под нос.

Овладев основами, начинай произносить отдельные слова. Кстати, некоторые щипящие нельзя произнести гроулом, так что не напрягайся по этому поводу (это как нельзя сказать звук "п" с открытым ртом).
Кстати, существует мнение, что после правильного гроула остаётся ощущение, словно горло и надгоратнную полость словно кошки поцарапали. Да, в принципе, я с этим согласен. Но это ощущение возникает после сильного и длительного гроула.

Итак, мы научились традиционному гроулу. На рык здесь влияет степень сдавливания, сила дыхания и добавление чистого вокала. Вперёд, комбинируй-экспериментируй, вырабатывай свобственный стиль.

2) Дыхание

Вот, теперь о дыхании. Оно имеет огромное значение. Правильное дыхание помогает рационально расходовать воздух и держать стабильный воздухопоток, что даёт ровный, сильный гроул. Многие говорят о том, что они гроулят животом или желудком. На все 100% неправильная формулировка! Они просто выдыхают из области живота или желудка. Гроулить там нечем, хотя если у кого-то получится издать что-то рычащее из желудка, сквозь пищевод... То он просто мутант! :) "Гроул" даже легче выходит с другого конца пищевода, но никак не из желудка.

Так что гроула желудком или животом не существует - не впадай в заблуждение. Существует выдох из этой области, рык от живота, но никак не животом.

Поначалу, автор этой статьи сам не особо верил в то, что дыхание особо нужно в гроуле, так как вроде бы и без особых техник удавалось хорошо извлекать звук. Но, однажды попробовав гролуить от живота, он понял, как многое он терял раньше.

Итак, научимся правильно дышать. Большую роль здесь играют мышцы пресса.
Выдохни, опустоши от воздуха нижнюю часть лёгких и живота. Живот должен оказаться как бы вдавлен, но не втянут (не создавай вакуум)! Теперь неспеша набери воздух в нижнюю часть лёгких и живота. Но в пределах разумного! Чтобы тебя не раздувало как жабу и ты не выглядел, словно беременная женщина. Важен не объём, а точка концентрации. Теперь, выдыхая, как бы выдавливай воздух снизу вверх, работая прессом, слегка приподнимая, вслед за потоком, диафрагму. Но не должно быть никаких резких толчков. Плавно, неспеша выдыхай, оставляя пресс чуть напряжённым. Снизу вверх, словно перекатывая воздух. Ты не забыл, что нужно рычать? Не просто выдыхаем, а с рыком. Да, и не кушай особо плотно перед концертами и репетициями. Такое дыхание давит на желудок, можно проблеватья или продристаться. А то и прямо на сцене...


Если ты всё делаешь правильно, то твой гроул должен выходить равномерным и продолжительным. Не теряй концентрацию. Поначалу кажется, что трудно следить за тем, чтобы воздух набирался в нужную точку. Уже скоро ты будешь делать это автоматически, бессознательно и всё будет получаться легко и естественно.

Итак, основы получены. Теперь можно брать тексты песен твоих любимых исполнителей и пытаться гроулить, поначалу, отдельные строки. Потом, приноровившись - куплеты, а там и целые песни. А может даже и альбомы...

Кстати, если ты собираешься исполнять композиции в стиле Funeral Doom Metal, то дыхание для тебя важно больше всего. В этом стиле необходимо тянуть звуки равномерно, без скачков и провалов.

Помни, главное - терпение и труд.

III) Гроул на расщеплении.

На мой взгляд, самый полезный материал по этому типу гроула - небольшой видеоурок Игоса из Аматори, который можно найти в Интернете. Там он всё хорошо и понятно объясняет. Хотя есть те кому этот урок либо не помог, либо они просто его не видели. Тогда приступим к объяснению.

Подобный гроул используют почти все металкорщики - As I Lay Dying, Amatory, DevilDriver и т.д. Кстати, легендарная Angela Gossow из Arch Enemy использует этот же тип гроула.
В этом виде гроула самое важное это дыхание, открытая гортань и расщепление связок. Нет-нет, не пугайся этих слов. Там всё намного проще, чем ты думаешь!

О дыхании ты уже знаешь. Но в этом типе гроула оно особенно важно, так как без потока воздуха нужной силы не будет вибрации связок, а будет просто гулкий рёв раненого медведа.
Не забывай - одна из главных прелестей гроула, наравне с силой и низким звучанием, это вибрация.

Итак. Дыханием мы уже владеем, а что значит "открытая гортань"? Вспомни ощущение, когда ты зеваешь - кадык уходит вниз, а горло расширяется. Открытая гортань очень важна при расщеплении, так как она позволяет связкам спокойно вибрировать, создавать звук, не задевая друг друга и не принося неприятных болевых ощущений. Кстати, в этом виде гроула вода очень важна, так что не забывай смачивать связки.

А теперь о расщеплении. Что же это? Вспомни голоса Луи Армстронга (песню "What A Wonderful World" помнишь?), Высоцкого, Круга, группы Бутырка. А чего смешного? Это расщепление. А если бы они пели с открытой гортанью и дыханием от живота, то был бы гроул на расщеплении. Хотя Высоцкий гроулом это перебор :)

Итак, для начала научимся расщеплять связки. Мне кажется, это умеют делать многие. Когда у тебя першит в горле, вспомни, как ты пытаешься его прочистить? Ты делаешь этакое рычащее "кххРРРРРм-кхРРРРРм". Вот этот самый звук "РРРР" и является основой расщепления.

Есть ещё один способ поймать этот самый момент расщепления.
Встань, расслабившись (только не упади). Расслабь тело, руки. И главное - расслабь рот, язык и горло. Теперь, слегка подпрыгни на носочках, одновременно хлопнув над собой ладоши и, в этот момент, как собачка, произнеси что-то вроде "вввввуф!" или "аааааф!". Ты почувствуешь грубый, вибрирующий звук от связок.
Главное на этом этапе - понять, как же достигать расщепления.

Когда ты научился расщеплять связки, можно пытаться гроулить. Итак, помним - дыхание и открытая гортань. Начни с продолжительных звуков "а-а-а" или "о-о-о". Учти, тренироваться тихо не получиться, здесь иной механизм. Но это и не значит, что нужно орать. Не перенапрягайся. Чрезмерный поток воздуха только портит гроул.

Возможно, поначалу, у тебя будут неприятные ощущения, вроде покалывания или лёгкого сдавливания в районе связок. Не переусердствуй с тренировками, так как при этом гроуле связки могут очень сильно пострадать при неправильных начальных нагрузках, или, если ты не используете открытую гортань.
Кстати, учись держать концентрацию на открытой гортани, следи за тем, чтобы связки вибрировали свободно.

На звучание здесь влияет смещение кадыка чуть выше или чуть ниже, уровень расщепления и изменение объёма рта, работой губ или челюстей. Также важно положение головы. Как ты думаешь, почему у Денвера из Аматори микрофон всегда расположен выше его рта, и, поёт он как бы снизу микрофона? Потому что, когда он гроулит, он держит линию рта и горла прямо - всегда открытая гортань+он получает нужный ему звук. Экспериментируй.

Также, рекомендую к просмотру DVD - Zen Of Screaming. Если ты хорошо воспринимаешь английский язык на слух, то сможешь узнать очень много о расщеплении.

IV) Смешанный гроул а-ля Барни Гринуэй (Napalm Death)

Здесь всё просто. Здесь идёт не смешивание гроула с чистым вокалом, а наоборот - смешивание чистого вокала с гроулом. Основа - чистый голос. Попробуй гроулить как обычно, только не сильно сдавливая горло. А теперь, одновременно, добавляй свой чистый голос. Смешивай. Если не получается, убирай часть гроула. Этот стиль рыка, на мой взгляд, самый лёгкий. Главное здесь - найти нужную пропорцию между гроулом и голосом. А если ещё и умудриться добавить расщепления (да, такое возможно, но при должном уровне мастерства), то получается крайне красивый, звонкий гроул. А можно получить и булькающий, но это тоже путём экспериментов. Кстати, получить булканье на смешанном гроуле проще, чем на традиционном.

V) Squealing или "хрюканина"

Основа - традиционный гроул. У тебя не получится изображать из себя кабана и хрюкать, если ты не овладел как следует традиционным гроулом. Итак, здесь ты поднимаешь кадык до предела вверх, сильный упор языка поначалу будет твоим главным помощником. Здесь главное не внятность произношения, а смачность похрюкивания. Основные звуки в хрюканине это "у" и "и", что-то другое здесь произнести крайне сложно, иначе весь свинячий звук теряется.
Итак, тыы сделал всё вышеперечисленное, прижал язык, поднял кадык. Сдавливание максимально (но разумно). Поехали! Пытаемся произнести что-то вроде "уи-уи-уи". Контролируй себя с помощью диктофона (диктофон на мобильнике - лучший помощник в самоконтроле). Очень важно положение твоих губ. Они должны быть напряжены и слегка вытянуты вперёд.

Если уж ты и не будешь играть в грайндкор-группе, то уже точно сможешь повеселить друзей или шокировать обывателей своими поросячьими наклонностями :)

VI) Заключение

Ну что ж, я попытался максимально подробно объяснить, как овладеть разными видами гроула плюс дал некоторые основные советы. Всё остальное ты приобретешь и поймёшь со временем и опытом.

Открою напоследок ещё один метод выработки и постановки своего стиля. Если ты не можете овладеть каким-то элементом, бывает полезно поставить своего любимого исполнителя и подпевать. Часто бывает так, что в процессе повторения сам неожиданно понимаешь, что и как делать. Вслушивайся.

Обобщим напоследок:
1) Не копируй никого, вырабатывай свой стиль.
2) Не насилуй горло табаком и алкоголем
3) Пей воду
4) Дыши правильно
5) При расщеплении держи гортань открытой

ну так что слушаете?
