"Satisfaction is the Death of Desire"

Empty Promises
You came to me with salvation, saying I must repent. You offer up your redemption, a guarantee for a
better life in your safe world. Your illusions are comfort for your conscience. My sacrifices will be made in
honor of what is truly sacred. How can you save me, when you can't save yourself? You can't save
yourself.
Burn The Lies
They're so persuasive, with their fucking lies. Not an ounce of respect. They'll do anything to sell
deception. (chorus) Burn the lies. Their words of ignorance. Shove them back. Back down their throats. All
that I have for you is hate. They will quickly abandon, what little morals they have. Tell you that you are
worth nothing, with no regard for anyone.
Before Dishonor
(Back ups by Watt Macintosh)
What make you think everything is this world that you have can be taken away? In a world this day, it's
kill or be killed. I live each day like it might be my last. In this lifetime few things are worth fighting for. My
Blood. Your Honor. Everyone has a destiny. I'll choose my own. I will not be a victim. (chorus) My cries
won't go unheard (x2) I got to fight for myself. I'll choose my own destiny and i won't let anyone take
away what i hold do true. I won't live in denial. And I won't turn the other cheek. I must remain convicted
and never accept this suffering. I've learned from my mistakes and I've made a promise to myself. I won't
live in the past (x2) I've been affected by your lies and I've let then hold me back. I wasn't thinking for
myself. I wasn't living for myself. (repeat chorus) What i have in my heart I'll take to my grave.
Puritan
Bastard cries, feed the fire. The burning desire to rob human life. In this world full of fear of the unknown.
Twisting the perception of the weak. Lying to progress. Only achieving greed. Seated behind the sun.
Myths bleed into one. Searching for a saviour to lead us through this life. Where our sanity is undone.
Killing against our will. Killing for the bastard maker. The fairy tale. The non existent. Salvation so
bittersweet the taste brought fear to our tongues. Preying on the weak. Fatherless creation encased in the
depths of humanity. They continue to rape and call it purity. I will not bow down because of out past. I see
now mankind was not meant to last.
Conceived Through an Act of Violence
Thrown into this living hell. I was thrown into this living hell. I am the hatred taken from another's life.
Born unwanted, extracted of all that is humane. No one can relate to my abandonment. I walk this earth
alone in search of salvation. Forever, Forever. Forever. Alone. A tormented seed given a chance to grow.
The end result of moral choice. Only to live a tortured life as the product of rape. Under a mother's face of
innocence, And a father with eyes of a demon. Conceived through an act of violence. (x4) I was thrown
into this living hell. I didn't ask to be this way. I was thrown into this living hell.
Afflicted Past
Hatred evokes the memories that make your blood run cold. Fear and sorrow push you away from
yourself. (chorus) How can you face the world? When you can't face the mirror. How can you leave your
past? With blood on your hands? Can you run away all your life? Can you escape your punishment? How
many times can you start it all again? How many lies will it take to cover your tracks? (chorus) Mo matter
how far you go Those days are right behind. The facade of your perfect life. Cannot hide your perfect past.
There is no escape.
Prepare for War
Drifting by the heavens unscarred. Yet unhealed before a bleeding cross. Thrown into the ash. Crumbling.
(chorus) I've been crossed. Like the lies on a clocks face. I've been fed lies I can't comprehend. I've
become but a mere seed again. And I'll prophesize the end. Now. I have yet begun to fight. There is no
fear in my heart. No cause worthy of my respect. In the End I'll rot. I won't fall prey to deception.
Deception is the means by which they profit. Deceit if their hearts. Evil within their souls. The cruelty by
which they exploit will not be part of my life. (repeat chorus)
Not One Truth
Living as we rot, Showered with shadows of dreams devoured. Our souls descend into endless seas of sin.
There's no turning back. No repenting, no remorse. Hate stricken creation. I realize in this world. (chorus
x2) There is not one truth cast into stone. Only lies cast into flames. It's time to burn. Burn alive. Burn at
the stake. Our eyes crystal clear, our bodies frozen with fear, and there's nothing to save us now from
endless suffering and solitude. We've lost the chance to save this dying world. So we pay the price, of
which no one can afford. This is our last breath. The first in a world.
Betrayed by Life
In a cold unforgiving world, alone with fear and weakness, oppressed and dying slowly. Countless people
have been betrayed by life. No one is exempt. No one is safe. So many lives will be taken. So many lives
been ruined. So many live hang is balance. So many lives have been lost. Betrayed by life. As survivors we
are left to try there tears. We are left to mend their wounds. We are left to pick up the pieces of those who
have been betrayed by life.
Mark My Words
I was so blind. I couldn't see the truth. I was unable to see how my life was being used. To be something
so miniscule. Everything i thought was so definite, I thought was so real was thrown away and will be
remembered among unpaling hatred. (chorus) Consider my suffering. Through all your pain. Remember
my face. I'm digging your grave. Since when was so sacred, turning into something so wrong. something
so important to me. Cheapened and exploited. I won't be that way, I can't, I can't be that way again. I
can't, I won't, I will never let it. (repeat chorus) For the rest of your fucking life you will mark my words.
Last Breath
All the prayers in the world can't bring you back. It's your last breath, this is our last breath. Taken from
this earth without warning. Victim of the ultimate injustice. Nothing will ever make sense of this. Nothing
could have prepared me. All that is left are memories, and the pieces of a shattered existence. I wish I
could bring back. I felt you last breath. All the prayers in the world can't bring you back.
Burial for the Living
No on can redeem themselves, no one can be saved. In a dying world filled with enslavement and endless
apathy. A tortured past and not much future a tattered earth remains, destitute and alone in madness.
Burial for the living. Our earth stripped of wealth. Burial of the living. Our bodies drained of life. In a world
full of enemies, I'm an enemy of the world. There is only so long we have to live, our dying days are spent
waiting for history to repeat itself. Our only hope is vengeance.
World Apart
Conditioned to feel nothing. We turn our backs on all the crimes. They say what we don't know wont hurt
us, but nothing could be further form the truth. Cries fall on deaf ears, and the killing continues. (chorus)
In your uncaring life - we are worlds apart. In this race doomed to fail - we are worlds apart. In this
system you support - we are worlds apart. In my soul - we are worlds apart.
Driven by Suffering
Every seconds breath life into a reason for dying. Our ignorance will only stunt our final will to live.  Bound
and Gagged. I feel forced back in a losing race. I've been stepped on and passed by but I have enough
hope to keep fighting. All of my pain. Driven by suffering (x2) Every single choice I must make. Driven by
suffering. (x2)
