The Plague 03:36
lyrics

Housewives with melon-sized tits are shouting Rich teenage girls with no problems whining Endless streams of stupid conformists Broadcasting their lives filled with bullshit Daddy pays for whatever you could wish for Mommy’s designer tits, such a great mentor Party hard, drink and dance Your brain never really had a chance Feel your intelligence drain out your ears Drain while the whole society cheers Feel your intelligence drain out your ears Drain while the whole society cheers Hide your feelings and play the game Maybe you won't walk away in shame Always try to resist temptation Make sure the audience sees your frustration Decieve your team and so called friends Later you can make amends Dramatize, brawl and shout How dare society shut you out Feel your intelligence drain out your ears Drain while the whole society cheers Feel your intelligence drain out your ears Drain while the whole society cheers You watch shows with no sense of direction You follow non-existent plots with no objection You watch shows with no sense of direction You follow non-existent plots with no objection Feel your intelligence drain out your ears Drain while the whole society cheers Feel your intelligence drain out your ears Drain while the whole society cheers

I clench my fists in silent rage, inside I scream and shout I feel like I am trapped inside a cage, I wonder what it’s all about A part of life without progress, please let me on through Full of anger, full of stress, I wish it all was untrue Don't dare to cut in line, I feel frustration growing I feel the chills going down my spine, these feelings keep on flowing You don't want to fuck with me, you'll regret your last decision I think that you will see, yourself in a really bad position I’ll smash your fucking face I’ll put you in your place I’ll smash your fucking face I’ll put you in your place Get the fuck out of my way, be sure to keep your distance I’ll find your ass someday, I’ll make you taste my persistence I'm gonna beat you down, I want to watch you bleed In your blood you'll drown, my anger will be freed I’ll smash your fucking face I’ll put you in your place I’ll smash your fucking face I’ll put you in your place

Justify 01:58
lyrics

Everywhere you are you’re being watched Your every word is being tracked Justify your every action Justify or be imprisoned Until proven otherwise you’re guilty In everyone’s eyes you’re filthy Cameras follow your every move To ensure your personal doom Everybody gather around and prove your innocence Judge for yourself what part of this makes sense Careful of what you chose to accept One wrong step and lose all your respect Be careful with what you think and say It can be used against you one day Everywhere you are you’re being followed Big brother lurks in the shadows Fight for your right to speak your mind Once completed things are hard to rewind Brace yourself for what comes next Don’t look back and be perplexed Everybody gather around and prove your innocence Judge for yourself what part of this makes sense Careful of what you chose to accept One wrong step and lose all your respect

You devote your life to fairytales Looking for any way to tip the scales Trying to convince the almighty you're nice Prepared to pay, any price Lured with the promise of living forever Saved through continuous endeavor Blinded by horrors and fear You feel you have to adhere Follow the orders of your superior They'll make sure you're always inferior They'll make sure you always come back Through your sense of honor and guilt they attack Feel your knees weaken before your god What can you do but just to nod Do you really know what is being idolized Your religion sure has you hypnotized Down on your knees and pray Pray so the pain goes away Kneel so your sins are abolished Kneel until your will to fight is demolished Do you really know what you chase Are you afraid of what you might face Why do you close your mind Are you scared of what you might find You make sure you have a defense So you can argue with common sense All doubt in your mind is gone So your superstition can live on Everything you don't like you try to ban Save as many souls as you can Every other way of life you have to defeat Cast your life away on deceit Do you really know what you chase Are you afraid of what you might face Why do you close your mind Are you scared of what you might find

Shades of Gray 02:48
lyrics
buy track
Deep in darkness, locked away Never allowed a word to say All unclear in the shades of grey Faded, forced into decay Buried in a fictional tomb Imagine, the darkest of rooms Slowly leading to endless gloom Creeping towards our doom Who knows what a modern man will do Once there’s no guide to listen to Forgotten for personal benefits Cast into a bottomless pit Making sure to maximize profits Dragged deeper into mountains of shit Hidden so no one can see Never to be set free Who knows what’s to be Once we remove the chains of liberty Who knows what a modern man will do Once there’s no guide to listen to
