Contagious 03:17
lyrics

Contagious, enter a room and the storm clouds swell Abandoning a maze of dreams that are so familiar Confronting a terrible nightmare you know so well Deciding on which escape method to relieve this hell Contagious and searching for the cure - contagious Contagious and spreading evermore Ferocious battling neurosis psychological Painting mirages and hiding in holograms your life’s future Faking rehabilitation you know you’re about to fall When you look in the mirror see the flames overtaking a horned animal Contagious and searching for the cure - contagious Contagious and spreading evermore So very contagious, spreading contagions, feeling contagious, so very contagious Embracing the herd will never get you anywhere A fatal disease humanity demands to share Spread the deviance, don’t let it plague your mind ‘Cuz fertile deviance is what matures mankind Contagious enter a room and the storm clouds swell Abandoning a maze of dreams that are so familiar Confronting a terrible nightmare you know so well Deciding on which escape method to relieve this hell Contagious and searching for the cure - contagious Contagious and spreading evermore Contagious and searching for the Contagious and searching for the Contagious and spreading evermore Contagious

Plastic Doesn't Feel Pain 02:36

Swirling eyes, lusting through a masquerade Demon sex lust vibes bloodshot and glazed Storm appears among clouds of lightning dreams Heat of the moment burns toward a tragic scene Betraying Barbie dolls Decaying party scenes Betraying Barbie dolls Cuz plastic doesn’t feel pain Out of the sunlight and into the shade Running out of excuses, running into murderous rage When will you fall my enticing insanity My glimmering star of shining suicidal ecstacy Betraying Barbie dolls Decaying party scenes Betraying Barbie dolls Cuz plastic doesn’t feel pain Oh no We’re all petty humans living in a world of confusion Betraying Barbie dolls Decaying party scenes Betraying Barbie dolls Cuz plastic doesn’t feel pain Oh no You’ve got petty problems and I’ve got petty delusions We’re all petty humans being purged from a world of confusion Decaying Barbie dolls ‘Cuz plastic doesn’t feel pain

Ritual Murder 03:33
lyrics

Shadow cast on what once looked promising Delving further in the greed that grows within Sacrificing for the myth that you have learned Uncovering the secrets untold Casting the world toward apocalyptic mode Violently dimming the light that we behold Savage flames of judgment’s heat in rising fervor Savage flames of judgment’s heat expanding further And it’s pure ritual murder In a dying culture Tainting humanity further The holy lying father Bare, so bare Bare, so bare Finding no room for stupidity Blindly hide behind the comfort of apathy Spread your branches and be plucked plentifully ‘Til dead and crumbling in the tree of misery Savage flames of judgment’s heat in rising fervor Savage flames of judgment’s heat ignite forever And it’s pure ritual murder In a dying culture Tainting humanity further The holy lying father Bare, so bare Bare, so bare Savage flames of judgment’s heat in rising fervor Savage flames of judgment’s heat expanding further And it’s pure ritual murder In a dying culture Tainting humanity further The holy lying father And it’s pure ritual murder And it’s pure ritual murder And it’s pure ritual murder The holy lying father

Scarred my fate with vice Parallel strings of smoke meander through the nose My gaze is fixed with bite I think when our lives bled euphemistic lies My euphoric high bade euphemistic lies I think when our lives bled euphemistic lies My euphoric high bade euphemistic lies I inject myself I inject myself in your veins I invoke myself I invoke myself through your veins We’ll trade pounds of flesh with a dagger And scream through bloody corridor Away ‘til my sulken mind leaves my ravaged body to return for more Unconscious my mind wisps unfettered free as thunder wind Blinding, unnerving my eyes peel ajar again Knife in my back from an old nemesis Glazed with cordial invite and a fiery kiss Afflicted with dualist woe Your flashing fleeting eyes lock cold in my devise Never enforced the instantaneous Evil physiognomous I inject myself I inject myself in your veins I invoke myself I invoke myself through your veins

Mesmera's Gaze 03:59
lyrics

A gaze far past pure, pure corruption, burns like cutthroat Curves angled like razors Your caress a clawed face Translucent blood boils Melting me down fast, down base Damn this gaze of Mesmera Icy-veined embrace Damn this gaze of Mesmera A fool’s terminal case Myriad reflection And endless vigor See the end in your eyes Your view so clearly of more base Damn this gaze of Mesmera Icy-veined embrace Damn this gaze of Mesmera A fool’s terminal case Damn this gaze of Mezzzzz.... Damn this gaze of Mesmera Icy-veined embrace Damn this gaze of Mesmera A fool’s terminal case Bleak hazy love stare Across a vacant landscape Moribund obsession No will-o’-the-wisp will we chase Damn this gaze of Mesmera Icy-veined embrace Damn this gaze of Mesmera A fool’s terminal case Damn this gaze of Mezzzzz.... In purest form your gaze can freeze ethos

Heal me now oh witch doctor I’m a disillusioned fool Chanting tomes and convulsing bodies directionless, stunned and abused I’m the sacrificial feast of flesh under the knives of the privileged few Whoa-ooh-oh-whoa-oh In feverish throes Shedding no woes In wild slithering throes Heal me now oh witch doctor I’m doing the dance of the witch doctor I’m taking the hand I’m gripped by the power! Making demands Through the witch doctor Tradition and poverty seek to silence the voice of my vision’s truth In percussive throes you don’t notice a body being prepared to be used Kaleidoscopic fate and red-eyed serpent schemes of you Now you’re the sacrificial feast of flesh under the knives of the vengeant few In feverish throes Shedding no woes In wild slithering throes Heal me now oh witch doctor I’m doing the dance of the witch doctor I’m taking the hand I’m gripped by the power! Making demands Through the witch doctor Heal me now oh witch doctor Heal me now oh witch doctor Heal me now oh witch doctor Heal me now oh witch doctor Heal me now oh witch doctor Heal me now oh witch doctor Heal me now oh witch doctor Oh witch doctor

Dreams and laughter, assign them a headstone A modern world tilted toward eclipse and unbalance Waves of ruptured gray visions sway in the night’s breeze One last prank by politicians flavors the night’s chill Bored consumers beg more torment mystery and hate They dance with mystery and hate Eyes fleeting, glancing seeking mystery and hate Secret ill willed upon our land leaves a tormenting itch Chained, souls trapped by the walls with propagandists spitting napalm Chained, souls stopped by the demon propagandists spitting napalm Leaders casting bombs thrusting mechanical world doom Chimes of confusion burning stench and decay Prelude, ha ha ha far past our prelude to world doom Prelude, ha ha ha fastens us tight in unsightly... ...Chains, souls trapped by the walls with propagandists spitting napalm Chained, souls stopped by the demon propagandists spitting napalm, spitting napalm, spitting napalm, spitting napalm Crippled souls, severed eternally from paradise Doomsday no longer no simple nightmare Crippled souls, severed eternally from paradise Doomsday no longer no simple nightmare Go! Chained, souls trapped by the walls with propagandists spitting napalm Chained, souls stopped by the demon propagandists spitting napalm Chained, souls trapped by the walls with propagandists spitting napalm Chained, souls stopped by the demon propagandists spitting napalm, spitting napalm, spitting napalm, spitting napalm

Losing battle against the sword of time I’ve wasted my unrecoverable time Haunting me my unrecoverable time Hunting me my unrecoverable time I’ve been robbed, I’ve been robbed I’ve wasted, I’ve wasted my withering pampered paradise I’m wasting, I’m wasting my withering pampered paradise Away, away Life picks up, life settle down Everyone around thinks I’m a clown They’ve wasted, they’ve wasted their withering pampered paradise Away, away Life picks up, life settle down Everyone around thinks I’m a clown Cruel pass from the punishments of power Paranoid they’ll lift me from my subtle limelight Burning threads that cover scars of personal turmoil Menacing old suicidal maids left behind Ooh in bitter turmoil Ooh terminal turmoil Is wasting, is wasting my withering pampered paradise Is wasting, is wasting my withering pampered paradise Away, away Away, away

Guerrilla tactics Using guerrilla tactics to survive Guerrilla tactics Using guerrilla tactics to stay alive They pulled the plug now Yeah, they pulled the plug now on our minds They pulled the plug now Now it’s just empty plasma that’s left behind Branded (with) Shrapnel lust and mortar fire Spasms Spastic bodies flipping into the fire Guerrilla tactics Using guerrilla tactics to survive Guerrilla tactics Using guerrilla tactics to stay alive Well it’s raining blood now Yeah it’s raining blood now on our lives It’s raining blood now We’re drowning in blood now I testify An asylum up in arms Hallucinations storm With every last drop of blood now let guerrilla tactics be reborn An asylum up in arms Hallucinations storm With every last drop of blood now let guerrilla tactics be reborn Branded (with) Shrapnel lust and mortar fire Spasms Spastic bodies flipping into the fire An asylum up in arms Hallucinations storm With every last drop of blood now let guerrilla tactics be reborn An asylum up in arms Hallucinations storm With every last drop of blood now let guerrilla tactics be reborn An asylum up in arms Hallucinations storm With every last drop of blood now let guerrilla tactics be reborn An asylum up in arms Hallucinations storm With every last drop of blood now let guerrilla tactics be reborn

Crossed Fingers 03:00
lyrics

Lost and blind I stumble to recover my way Never knowing quite when to strike or to self-decay Caught in the crossfire of exploding tensions A crucifix beside crossed fingers An ambush attack that always lingers Blind assassin hesitates to pull his trigger Blind assassin sees that this is something bigger Caught in the crossfire of exploding tensions A crucifix beside crossed finger An ambush attack that always lingers Shoot you coward, shoot you coward, shoot you coward Shoot! You’re gonna kill a man Caught in the crossfire of exploding tensions A crucifix beside crossed fingers An ambush attack that always lingers Flickering light in wild city of darkness Embracing your battles or do you run and hide? Ill situations pass now memory’s a stranger I desire to disappear Blazing a trail through a city of darkness Killing the spirit of innocence Besides Blind assassin shoots in the wrong direction Blind assassin shoots among friends Flickering light in wild city of darkness Embracing your battles or do you run and hide? Ill situations pass now memory’s a stranger I desire to disappear Blazing a trail through a city of darkness Killing the spirit of innocence Betrayal
