Symbolic Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don't mean to dwell
But I can't help myself
When I feel the vibe
And taste a memory
Of a time in life
When years seemed to stand still
[Pre-Chorus]
I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift
Of precious memories
In need of a fix
Called innocence
[Chorus]
When did it begin
The change to come was
Undetectable
The open wounds expose
The importance of our innocence
A high that can never
Be bought or sold
[Post-Chorus]
Symbolic acts
So vivid
Yet at the same time
Were invisible
[Guitar Solo: Chuck Schuldiner]
[Guitar Solo: Bobby Koelble]
[Bridge]
Savor what you feel and what you see
Things that may not seem important now
But may be tomorrow
[Verse 2]
Do you remember when
Things seemed so eternal?
Heroes were so real
Their magic frozen in time
The only way to learn
Is be aware and hold on tight
[Pre-Chorus]
I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift
Of precious memories
In need of a fix
Called innocence
[Chorus]
When did it begin
The change to come was
Undetectable
The open wounds expose
The importance of our innocence
A high that can never
Be bought or sold
[Post-Chorus]
Symbolic acts
So vivid
Yet at the same time
Were invisible
Zero Tolerance Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In the dark of night, abusing a portion of light
While others are sleeping and some are escaping
A serpent spews out fantasy, unjustified blasphemy
That cannot be condoned
[Guitar Solo: Chuck Schuldiner]
[Pre-Chorus]
It must be strange to not have lived so far into existence
[Chorus]
This is not a test of power
This is not a game to be lost or won, let justice be done
[Bridge]
There will be zero tolerance for the creator of hallowed intentions
There will be zero tolerance, fate is your deciding God
[Guitar Solo: Chuck Schuldiner]
[Guitar Solo: Bobby Koelble]
[Verse 2]
Karma comes crashing down, leaving a very deep scar
Exposing a door to the source of a verbal whore
Machines supply the altar, where virtuous lives are sacrificed
[Pre-Chorus]
It must be strange to not have lived so far into existence
[Chorus]
This is not a test of power
This is not a game to be lost or won, let justice be done
Misanthrope Lyrics
[Verse 1]
From above and around
Observations are collected
Knowledge is taken in by curious life forms
That may bring hope from beyond
Beneath the giver of life, our sun
An examination of another kind is done
[Refrain]
A view from those who stood high
And breathed the sky
An opinion from below and from above
[Pre-Chorus]
Some were decided, some were not
A few looked away, but none forgot
[Chorus]
Misanthrope
Hater of all mankind
There is some hope
For those who own their mind
They came, they saw and acknowledged
Some good, some bad
Opinion: dangerous
[Instrumental Break]
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Stay where you are, don't get consumed
By what they created from sheer neglect
In denial of years and years of
Shattered souls
That were lost to the power of
Fragile, frightful minds
[Refrain]
A view from those who stood high
And breathed the sky
An opinion from below and from above
[Pre-Chorus]
Some were decided, some were not
A few looked away, but none forgot
[Chorus]
Misanthrope
Hater of all mankind
There is some hope
For those who own their mind
They came, they saw and acknowledged
Some good, some bad
Opinion: dangerous
