�Blackened is the end, Winter it will send
�Throwing all U see, Into obscurity
�Death of mother earth, Never a rebirth
�Evolution's end, Never will it mend
�Never!
�� [Chorus:]
�� Fire!
�� To begin whipping dance of the dead
�� Blackened is the end
�� To begin whipping dance of the dead
�� Color our world blackened!
�Bestirring of earth, Terminate its worth
�Deadly Nicotine, Kills what might have been
�Callous frigid chill, Nothing left to kill
�Never seen before, Breathing nevermore
�Never!
� [Repeat Chorus]
Blackened!
�Opposition...Contradiction...Premonition...Compromise
�Agitation...Violation...Mutilation...Planet dies!
�Darkest color, Bistered earth, True death of life!
�Termination....Expiration...Cancellation...Human race
�Expectation...Liberation...Population...Lay to waste!
�See our mother, Put to death
�See our mother die!
{Interlude}
�Smoldering decay, Take her breath away
�Millions of our years, In minutes disappears
�Darkening in vain, Decadence remains
�All is said and done, Never is the sun
�Never!
�Fire!
�To Begin Whipping Dance of the Dead
�Blackened Is the End
�To Begin Whipping Dance of the Dead
�Fire!
�Is the Outcome of Hypocrisy
�Darkest Potency
�In the Exit of Humanity
�Color Our World Blackened!
�Blackened!
�Halls of Justice painted green, Money talking!
�Power wolves beset your door, Hear them stalking!
�Soon you'll please their appetite, They devour!
�Hammer of Justice crushes U, Overpower!
�� [Chorus:]
�� The ultimate in vanity
�� Exploiting their supremacy
�� I can't believe the things U say!
I can't believe, I can't believe the price...
U pay !
�� Nothing can save U!
�Justice is Lost! Justice is Raped! Justice is Gone!
Pulling your strings, Justice is done!
Seeking no truth, Winning is all
Find it so grim, So true, So real
[Chorus Ends]
�Apathy their dtepping dtone, Do unfeeling!
�Hidden deep animosity, So deceiving!
�Through your eyes their light burns, Hoping to find
�Inquisition sinking U, With prying minds!
�� [Repeat Chorus]
{Interlude}
�Lady Justice has been raped, Truth assassin
�Rolls of red tape seal your lips, Now you're done in
�Their money tips her scales again, Make our deal
�Just what is truth? I cannot tell, Cannot feel!
The ultimate in vanity,��� Exploiting their supremacy
�� I can't believe the things U say!
I can't believe, I can't believe the price...
We pay !
�� Nothing can save Us!
�Justice is Lost! Justice is Raped! Justice is Gone!
Pulling your strings, Justice is done!
Seeking no truth, Winning is all
Find it so grim, So true, So real
Seeking no truth, Winning is all
Find it so grim, So true, So real
�Do U see, What I see?
�Truth is an offense, U silence for your confidence
�Do U hear, What I hear?
�Doors are slamming shut!
�Limit your imagination, Keep U where they must
�Do U feel, What I feel?
�Battering distress, Who decides what U express?
�Do U take, What I take?
�Endurance is the word!
�Moving back instead of forward seems to me absurd!
[Chorus:]
�Doesn't matter what U see, Or into it what U read
U can do it your own way
�If it's done just how I say!
�� Independence limited!
Freedom of choice is made for U my friend!
�� Freedom of speech is words that they will bend!
�� Freedom with their exception!
[Chorus Ends]
�Do U fear, What I fear?
�Living properly,� Truths to U are lies to me
�Do U choose, What I choose?
�More alternatives
�Energy derives from both the plus and negative!
�Do U need, What I need?
�Boundaries overthrown, Look inside to each his own
�Do U trust, What I trust?
�Me, Myself and I!
�Penetrate the smoke screen I see through the selfish lie
��� [Repeat Chorus]
{Interlude}
�Do U know, What I Know?
�Your money and your wealth, U silence just to hear yourself
�Do U want, What I want?
�Desire not a thing
I hunger after independence, Lengthen freedom's ring!
� [Repeat Chorus]
FREEDOM, No longer frees U!
� Doesn't matter what U see, Or into it what U read
�U can do it your own way
�If It's done just how I say!
�I can't remember anything, Can't tell if this is true or dream
�Deep down inside I feel to scream, This terrible silence stops
me!
�Now that the war is through with me, I'm waking up I can not
see
�That there is not much left of me, Nothing is real but pain now
�Hold my breath as I wish for death
�Oh Please God, Wake Meeee!
�Back in the womb its much too real, In pumps life that I must
feel!
�But can't look forward to reveal, Look to the time when I'll
live
�Fed through the tube that sticks in me, Just like a wartime novelty
�Tied to machines that make me be, Cut this Life off from me
�Hold my breath as I wish for death
�Oh Please God, Wake Meeee!
�Now the world is gone, I'm just one!
�Oh God, Help me! Hold my breath as I wish for death
�Oh Please God, Help Meee!
{Interlude}
�Darkness! Imprisoning me, All that I see
����� Absolute horror!
����� I cannot live, I cannot die
����� Trapped in myself, Body my holding cell!
Land mine has taken my sight!
�Taken my speech! Taken my hearing!
Taken my arms! Taken my legs!
Taken my soul, Left me with Life in Hell !
�Suspicion is your name, Your honesty to blame
�Put dignity to shame, Dishonor!
�Witch hunt modern day, Determining decay
�The blatant disarray, Disfigure!
�The public eyes' disgrace, Defying common place
�Unending paper chase, Unending!
�Deafening, Painstaking, Reckoning
�This Vertigo it dote bring
�� [Chorus:]
�� Shortest straw, Challenge liberty!
�� Downed by Law, Live in infamy!
�� Rub U raw, Witch hunt riding through
�� Shortest Straw
�� This shortest straw has been pulled for U!
�� Pulled for U, Shortest straw
[Repeat 2 more times]
� Shortest straw has been pulled for U!
�The accusations fly, Discrimination, Why?
�Your inner self to die, Intruding!
�Doubt sunk itself in U, It's teeth and talons through
Your living catch 22, Deluding!
�A mass Hysteria, A Megalomania
�Reveal Dementia, Reveal!
�Secretly! Silently! Certainly!
�In Vertigo U Will Be
��� [Repeat Chorus]
{Interlude}
shortest straw, pulled for U
[Repeat thrice]
shortest straw has been pulled for U
�Behind U, Hands are tied
�Your being ostracized
�Your hell is multiplied, Upending!
�The fallout has begun, Oppressive damage done
Your many turned to none, To nothing!
You're reaching your nadir
�Your will has disappeared
�The lie is crystal clear, defending!
�Channels red
�One word said, blacklisted!
�With Vertigo make U dead!
� [Repeat Chorus]
�My life suffocates, Planting seeds of hate
�I've loved, turned to hate! Trapped far beyond my fate!
�I give, U take, This life that I forsake!
�Been cheated of my youth, U turned this lie to truth!
� Anger, Misery, You'll suffer unto me!
�Harvester of Sorrow!
�Language of the Mad
�Harvester of Sorrow!
� Pure black, Looking clear, My work IS done soon here!
�Try getting back to me, Get back which used to be

�Harvester of Sorrow!
�Language of the Mad
�Harvester of Sorrow!

�Language of the Mad
�Harvester of Sorrow!
�[Repeat till fade]
�Never hunger, Never prosper! I have fallen prey to failure!
�Struggle Within, Triggered again! Now the candle burns at both
ends!
�Twisting under Schizophrenia
�Falling deep into dementia!
��� [Chorus:]
��� Old Habits Reappear, Fighting the fear of fear
��� Growing conspiracy, Everyone's after me!
Frayed Ends of Sanity!
��� Hear them calling... Hear them calling me!
�Birth of terror, Death of much more! I'm the slave of fear, My
captor!
�Never warnings, Spreading its wings as I wait for the horror
she brings!
�Loss of interest, Question, Wonder
�Waves of fear, They pull me under
��� [Repeat Chorus]
{Interlude}
�Into run, I am sinking
�Hostage of this nameless feeling
�Hell is set free, Flooded I'll be
�Feel the undertow inside me!
�Height, Hell, Time, Haste, Terror, Tension
�Life, Death, Want, Waste, Mass depression
�� [Repeat Chorus]
�When a man lies he murders
�� Some part of the world
�These are the pale deaths which
� men miscall their lives
�All this I cannot bear
�� to witness any longer
�Cannot the kingdom of salvation
�� Take me Home!

�Dear Mother, Dear Father
�What is this hell U have put Me through
�Believer, Deceiver
�Day in day out live my life through U
�Pushed onto me what's wrong or right
�Hidden from this thing that they call lLife
�Dear Mother, Dear Father
�Every thought I'd think You'd disapprove
�Curator, Dictator
�Always cencoring my every move
�Children are seen But are not heard
�Tear out everything inspired
��� Innocence, Torn from me Without your shelter
��� Barred reality, I'm living blindly
�Dear Mother, Dear Father
�Time has frozen still what's left to be
�Hear nothing, Say nothing
�Cannot face the fact I think for me
�No guarantee, It's life as is
�But damn U for not giving me my chance
�Dear Mother, Dear Father
�You've clipped my wings before I learned to fly
�Unspoiled, Unspoken
�I've outgrown that fucking lullaby
�Same thing I've always heard from U
�Do as I say not as I do
�� Innocence, Torn from me without your shelter
�� Barred reality, I'm living blindly
�� I'm in Hell without U
�� Cannot cope without U two
�� Shocked at the world that I see
�� Innocent victim Please rescue me
�Dear Mother, Dear Father
�Hidden in your world you've made for me
�I'm seething, I'm bleeding
�Ripping wounds in me that never heal
�Undying spite I feel for U
�Living out this hell U always knew!
