Perilous Nation Lyrics

4 ContributorsPerilous Nation LyricsBold is the one who dares to say what he feels
Renegation man, to one he yields
The bleeding hearts and empty minds, hiding words they fear
Blind is the one who censors what we see and hear
Come into my world and take a journey with me
Paint me a portrait now, of the things you see
Men are poor and lost in war of ideology
No solution will prevail unless we can be
Free of anger, free of pain
Free of hatred that we obtain
Tell me what this place was meant to be
Can you see? Can you see what it does to me?
Can you hear? Can you read?
Can you see what it did to me!
Totalitarians in a Perilous Nation
Forcing through control turns, to desolation
Listen to the leader speak, he's your only friend
Take a stand in the motherland, take it to the end
Say now what you will, before they make it illegal
Time to draw the line, between the bad and the evil
Distant times had friendly rules, became its deadliest foe
We have heard it all before, the morals come and go
Men are poor and lost in war of ideology
No solution will prevail unless we can be
Free of anger, free of pain
Free of hatred that we obtain
Tell me what this place was meant to be
Free of anger, free of pain
Free of hatred that we obtain
Tell me what this place was meant to be
Can you see? Can you see what it does to me?
Can you hear? Can you read?
Can you see what it did to me, can you hear? Can you read?
Can you see what it did to me
Can you hear? Can you read?
Can you see what it did to me...

Envy Life Lyrics

6 ContributorsEnvy Life LyricsRegarding to the nature used with pacts of magic
Spirits from the vastly deep
Respond the calls from their broken silence
Make sure your reach does not exceed your grasp
All that is to be done before you act
In a pact of invoking spirits from the past
Have you lost your mind
The dark souls of time
Envy life!
Envy life!
They see you calling out their names and getting ready
Chant in darkness shrouding near
Through your virtued youth they'll strike a deal
What's to obtain if no pain no gain
But to sell your soul you must be insane
Wrote your name in blood and then they came
You're as good as dead
The lost souls of time
Envy life!
Envy life!
Life!
Have you lost your mind
Dark souls of the time
Ending life!
You're as good as dead
Lost souls of the time!
Envy life!
Come on down to the house of pain
You hear them calling
Shouting out their names in vain
Envy life!
Regarding to the nature used with pacts of magic
Spirits from the vastly deep
Respond the calls from their broken silence
Make sure your reach does not exceed your grasp
All that is to be done before you act
In a pact of invoking spirits from the past
You're as good as dead
The lost souls of time, envy life, envy life!
Envy life, envy life!

Greenhouse Effect Lyrics

4 ContributorsGreenhouse Effect LyricsFools the ones who stray, the rain forest burns away
Know what to believe, this is the air we breathe
So the world we know is dying slow in South America
Flames are burning down, all the trees to the ground
Time is running low, we can't stay no more
Wealth these people see, fight for eternity
Lies they televise paid by the government
There on! It lingers on
And they don't even care if they...
Seal the planet's fate
Crimes they perpetrate
Wasting precious land
It's time to take a stand
Our only hope to breathe again
To stop the madness closing in
What will we do when all is lost
Environmental holocaust...
Our only hope to breathe again
To stop the madness closing in
What will we do when all is lost
Environmental holocaust...
Foes these people go, someone destroyed their home
Plagued with disease, left praying on their knees
Laws protect the land, social justice in demand
Smoke it fills the air into the atmosphere
Now it's time to see a cycle of a tragedy
On! It lingers on, and they don't even care if they...
Seal the planet's fate
Crimes they perpetrate
Wasting precious land
It's time to take a stand
Our only hope to breathe again
To stop the madness closing in
What will we do when all is lost
Environmental holocaust...
Our only hope to breathe again
To stop the madness closing in
What will we do when all is lost
Environmental holocaust...

Sins of Omission Lyrics

5 ContributorsSins of Omission LyricsThe day's vanished in the night, soon the children pray, pray themselves alone
The hate built from their pride, you can't take away, can't take what they own
The eyes watching from the sky guides them through the haze, calling far away
The rain is black as black, black as night, oh, let them pray
False sense of pride satisfies, there's no reason for suicide
Use your mind and hope to find, find the meaning of existence
The cry's answers wonder why, why it's time to die, time to die alone?
'Cause I'm wasting too much time wandering down the line, reasons why I go my own
False sense of pride satisfies, there's no reason for suicide
Use your mind and hope to find, find the meaning of existence
Yeah!
The eyes watching from the sky guides them through the haze, calling far away
The rain is black as black, black as night, oh, let them pray
False sense of pride satisfies, there's no reason for suicide
Use your mind and hope to find, find the meaning of existence
False sense of pride satisfies, there's no reason for suicide
Use your mind and hope to find, find the meaning of existence

Nightmare (Coming Back to You) Lyrics

3 ContributorsNightmare (Coming Back to You) LyricsYou wanted money, you wanted fame
You broke the rules before you knew the game
Wounds tearing you up like a knife
Wish it was the end of your life, it's a nightmare
Going down that road on account of you
No escape from the things you put me through
I don't know, I don't care, I can't go anywhere
It's a nightmare coming back to you!
Don't wanna die, just wanna live!
I've got stop taking what they give
So many roads moving all around
I only see the one going down, it's a nightmare
Going down that road on account of you
No escape from the things you put me through
I don't know, I don't care, I can't go anywhere
It's a nightmare coming back to you!
Hey, but fuck you!
We got to fight, we got to try
When all is gone we'll know the reason why
To kill the enemy we will win the wars
To find the place our life was before, it's a nightmare
Going down that road on account of you
No escape from the things you put me through
I don't know, I don't care, I can't go anywhere
It's a nightmare coming back to you!... to you! to you!...
