                                  These are the words that have confused, horrified  
                                    and hopefully enlightend the people that have heard them.
                                     
                                  
                                 
                                 I HATE YOUR GUTS
                                     
                                     Forever I walk among the ignorant
                                     Each day I grow more intolerant
                                     You all have become insignificant
                                     I feel completely indifferent
                                     
                                     Razorblade release
                                     I put you out of my misery
                                     Soon to be deceased
                                     You are all dead to me
                                     
                                     A shovel covered in mud
                                     A shovel stained with blood
                                     A freshly dug grave in the rain
                                     The final end to years of pain
                                     
                                     A murder for lust, a murder for greed
                                     A murder for no reason at all
                                     Day after day, night after night
                                     One by one, you all fall
                                     
                                     With a sharp crack, the lights go out
                                     A heavy thud as the body hits the floor
                                     A trail of blood is left across the room 
                                     and out the fucking door...
                                  
                                 THIS WAS YOUR LIFE (quickly ruined) 
                                 You didn't listen, you didn't see
                                     You haven't learned anything from me
                                     You wasted my time
                                     You ruined your life
                                     Now it's all over
                                     with the slice of a knife
                                     
                                     This was your life-quickly ruined
                                     This was your life-now it's gone
                                     
                                     Consuming apathy has come over you
                                     Even love of your friends
                                     could not get through to you
                                     I saw you slipping away
                                     further into your fantasy land
                                     So sure you were right, but now
                                     you're holding Death's hand
                                     
                                     This was your life-quickly ruined
                                     This was your life-now it's gone

                                     Twisted visions
                                     
                                     Haunting Screams
                                     
                                     Wrapped in sheets
                                     
                                     Buried six feet deep
                                     
                                     
                                     
                                     Thoughts in my head
                                     
                                     Bleed into dreams
                                     
                                     I'm killing them,
                                     
                                     I'm killing me
                                     
                                     Most of them die
                                     
                                     few barely survive
                                     
                                     But everyone's alive
                                     
                                     when I open my eyes
                                     
                                     
                                     
                                     Battered flesh
                                     
                                     Broken bones
                                     
                                     Burn in hell
                                     
                                     All alone
                                     
                                     
                                     
                                     Put the knife between the ribs
                                     
                                     Feel the heart slowly die
                                     
                                     
                                     
                                     Bleeding out
                                     
                                     Fade away
                                     
                                     
                                     
                                     This is a nightmare
                                     
                                     I cannot wake up
                                     
                                     This is all real
                                     
                                     I thought I was asleep
                                  
                                 DESSICATED 
                                    Important but invisible, necessary but overlooked 
                                    Forgotten until it's too late...taking up space 
                                    Eating food and breathing air 
                                    Getting smaller and smaller and smaller 
                                    Signifigance has turned to "in" 
                                      
                                    The colors fade the flavor is gone 
                                    Dried out, torn up 
                                    I'm thrown away! 
                                    It doesn't matter anymore... 
                                      
                                    Circumstantial execution of personality 
                                    A hardend shell with all the soft interior 
                                    drained out 
                                    A figurehead, an idea, a memory 
                                    is all that remains 
                                    the true meaning is gratefully lost 
                                    Screams, pleading words fall on deaf ears 
                                      
                                    The face contorts, the mouth forming 
                                    a silent "O" of horror 
                                    Nothing left to do but lose consciousness 
                                    and hope tomorrow will be different... 
                                    and hope for tomorrow....

                                    (every day more and more people are beginning to realize  
                                    that their christian god is just a myth. People are becoming angry  
                                    and with no deity to take the blame for their troubles they take  
                                    their frustrations out on each other) 
                                      
                                    I feel your heel upon my neck 
                                    I feel your whip across my back 
                                    I hear your words, they sting my ears 
                                    I hide my face, you're not worth my tears

                                    I am drowning in your pain 
                                    My own needs pushed aside again 
                                    I am beaten with your verbal fist

                                    We are the living dead 
                                    We are the source of fear

                                    I tell you what to say 
                                    and take away your choice 
                                      
                                    You look into our eyes  
                                    and see that nothing's there 
                                    We all are soulless demons 
                                    and the cause of all despair 
                                      
                                    You live for your fucking saviour 
                                    but know, he is not mine 
                                    Your "god" is merely a legend 
                                    Your entire life is a lie 
                                      
                                    We'll see your body broken 
                                    We'll tear out your insides 
                                    You're just a future carcass 
                                    and you're on borrowed time 
                                      
                                    I'll live inside your head 
                                    I'll be your rotten twin 
                                    You'll never be alone 
                                    in this sordid life of sin
                                     
                                  
                                 TRUTH (stunted evolution) 
                                    Go ahead and try to force your will upon us 
                                    We need a good laugh anyway... 
                                    You couldn't even begin to understand our 
                                    state of mind. Risen to levels of consciousness 
                                    that far exceed that of the trivial world. 
                                    Evolutionary steps were taken while you sleep 
                                    in front of your T.V. 
                                    Opened minds and strong bodies, yes, we do  
                                    possess a basic understanding of life and nature, 
                                    The balances that are needed and the knowledge 
                                    of things that are not. 
                                    The power to make imagination and fantasy a reality 
                                    and realizing that reality is only how you percieve it 
                                    Truth. 
                                    Life can be what you want it to be, you must make it 
                                    so and it is possible. We know this to be an everyday 
                                    truth. 
                                    Realization is what we offer, don't be afraid. 
                                    There is a world waiting to be exploited.
                                     
                                  
                                 TODAY I DIED 
                                      
                                    My world today is fading away 
                                    it cannot stay 
                                    the sky has turned grey 
                                      
                                    I begin to see  
                                    what's happening to me 
                                    there's nothing inside 
                                    today I died 
                                      
                                    A tormented life, emotionally deceased 
                                    my post-mortem soul now lies in peace 
                                      
                                    today I died
                                     
                                  
                                 A HOLE IN GOD 
                                    You can't touch me, I'm too far above you 
                                    A god in your eyes, a god in my eyes 
                                    A clever mind speaks important lies 
                                      
                                    A figure of father, a virginal mother 
                                    A son that's a saviour, a fallen dark brother 
                                      
                                    Personal guidelines, a fairy tale 
                                    You live for this story, a mind for sale 
                                      
                                    Abstinence grant you the key to heaven, deny the pleasures of sin 
                                    A means of controlling the mindless masses 
                                    Stray from the flock and the Devil steps in 
                                      
                                    I can see you, I know what you're doing 
                                    You pray for forgiveness, then do it again 
                                      
                                    A god of convienence is what you're after 
                                    Spill your dark secrets to an eager listener 
                                      
                                    Put your faith in pain to a god of suffering 
                                    A reward of eternal pleasure beyond deaths' the offering 
                                    (live version only: "God was created in mans image, 
                                    but we don't need him anymore") 
                                    If pleasure is sin, then I ask you: what awaits in heaven? 
                                    More of the same as here, I expect 
                                    So why deny yourself of what you can attain in this life by your own means? 
                                      
                                    I have put a hole in your god, I have fucked the hole in your god
                                     
                                  
                                 AN EXERCISE IN BRUTALITY 
                                    I am every Hell you have ever feared, I am every nightmare you have ever had, 
                                    every hope and dream gone horribly wrong 
                                      
                                    I will crawl down inside the very depths of you 
                                    And pull out your soul and show it to you 
                                    I will show you what torture is, I will kill all that is good 
                                    I can maim and destroy all I want 
                                    I am Blasphemy personified, I am Evil 
                                      
                                    I can show you what real pain is, I will come... 
                                    You say that you love your saviour 
                                    I can bring you closer to god 
                                    Bring out the nails, I'll crucify you, I'll pierce your side 
                                    I will watch you as you're bleeding, I will see you die 
                                      
                                    Come inside to my chamber, I can show you agony 
                                    Peel the skin back, watch the blood flow, I am your Hell 
                                    I want to kill you and dismember you, I want to see you die 
                                    Pull your insides out, stuff your eyeballs in 
                                    I want to see you as a rotting corpse 
                                      
                                    You may think I'm not capable of doing all that I said 
                                    But just watch, all my knives are sharp, I will slide them in 
                                    I want to cut you, I want to feel you from the inside 
                                    You will feel me deep inside you, I will become what's left 
                                    This is a side you never wanted to see 
                                      
                                    It is my dream to crucify you, I want to show you what suffering is 
                                    We have eternity to know your flesh, and this is only the beginning 
                                    You opened the Box and we came for you, no one has ever escaped 
                                    The cold steel sticks through your tepid flesh, we want to see your blood spraying 
                                    out 
                                      
                                    Vivisection, desecration, evisceration, I want it all done 
                                    I want to climb deep inside you 
                                    I WANT TO SEE YOU DIE!!! 
                                      
                                    I will kill you, this you can believe, I will destroy all that you are 
                                    Deface you, I will deter you, and know all that you are 
                                      
                                    I will crawl down inside (of you) 
                                    I will end your life 
                                    I will see the end of you 
                                      
                                    Lacerations, bleeding flesh 
                                    I will crawl down inside of you, I will pull out your eyes 
                                    Cut your fingers off and caress myself, I want to feel your cold dead touch 
                                      
                                    Necrophelia... 
                                    Necrophelia in the darkness, we want to feel your cold dead body...
                                     
                                  
                                 GUILLOTINE MOUTH 
                                    With words sharp as razors I bite off your head 
                                    I won't be satisfied until every last one is dead 
                                    My bloodlust is matched by my growing contempt 
                                    When I hit my speed not one is exempt 
                                      
                                    My cold black heart hangs dead in my chest 
                                    To me you're just a piece of shit like the rest 
                                    Here in my eyes lies an acidic gaze 
                                    in my mind, an inferno to set the world ablaze 
                                      
                                    Words alone cannot articulate my loathing for the human race 
                                    My satisfaction lies in your absence from the Earths face 
                                    Blasting away, turning bodies into meat 
                                    Planetary barbeque for Hells' Demons to eat
                                     
                                  
                                 KAHMERA OBSKYURA 
                                    Who is the man with the blackened out eyes? 
                                    He walks alone quietly fabricating lies. 
                                    The world sees him differently than he sees himself 
                                    for there is only bland shallowness in everyone else. 
                                    He is quite lost in a world of his own, 
                                    a place filled with thoughts of creatures unknown. 
                                    He may suddenly speak in rhyme or in verse 
                                    on subjects of blood or topics perverse. 
                                    Then fall again silent with an introverted gaze, 
                                    and no one can see behind his eyes that glaze. 
                                      
                                    He twitches and picks at the clothes that he wears 
                                    and occasionally stops to have a taste of his hair. 
                                    Could he be drunk or high on LSD? 
                                    Nobody knows....well....no one but me... 
                                    FOR I AM THAT MAN WITH BLACKENED OUT EYES! 
                                    I'm not afraid like you so I don't wear a disguise. 
                                    What you see is who I am. An odd combination of the  
                                    wolf and the lamb. 
                                    I walk through this life with a curious mind. 
                                    Every night, something new to find. 
                                    For over a quarter of a century I have existed in this body of flesh. 
                                    I dream of things, my future to come.  
                                    And what will I dream of when those things are done? 
                                    No way to know except live on and see what lies ahead and where I will be. 
                                      
                                    I exist on more than one plane of existance. 
                                    I live in the physical world and I am the destroyer 
                                    in the dream world. 
                                    This is what I have done to myself, for myself. 
                                    This is what cannot be undone. 
                                     
                                     
                                  
                                   
                                 THE BOOK OF LIES 
                                      
                                    FUCK YOUR BOOK OF LIES! 
                                     I won't accept your ways of hypocrisy 
                                    I cannot believe what you say to me 
                                    Your God and Jesus, they both are a lie 
                                    No one will see their faces when they die 
                                    The Bastard son and his mother the whore 
                                    The words of Christ, I will always ignore 
                                    I live in a place called "reality" 
                                    Keep your superstitions far away from me 
                                      
                                    (chorus) 
                                    Gullible idiots, you think Jesus saves? 
                                    With guilt and fear they will turn you to slaves 
                                    Give up your money and all your free time... 
                                    Why can't you see religion's organized crime? 
                                      
                                    I'll put a knife through your sacred heart 
                                    Defame the bible in the name of art 
                                    I want God erased from history 
                                    Your book of lies means nothing to me 
                                    They come to my home, they knock on my door 
                                    They say they bring the word of the Lord 
                                    Annoying nuisance, always ringing the bell 
                                    I tell them-FUCK YOUR GOD, I'LL SEE YOU IN HELL!!! 
                                      
                                    (repeat chorus) 
                                      
                                    Invert the crucifix, I reject your faith 
                                    I wear the Baphomet, invoke unholy wraith 
                                    You claim that Satan demands sacrifice 
                                    But those who would not convert paid the price 
                                    The mass genocide they called the Crusades 
                                    Defenseless heathens fell on Christian blades 
                                    They say that God is love, but he'll take your soul 
                                    for the crime of being human, to infernal hell hole! 
                                      
                                    (repeat chorus) 
                                    A savage creature with the face of a Gent 
                                    He'll destroy your trust with no repent 
                                    He'll steal your life, He'll control your mind 
                                    Peace and safety have been left far behind 
                                      
                                    Satan is the best friend that the church ever had 
                                    The threat of punishment if you are "bad" 
                                    The cause of damnation for which they search 
                                    will ensure they get their asses to church 
                                    The seven deadly sins all lead to pleasure 
                                    The depths of temptation you cannot measure 
                                    I cannot see why I should not give in 
                                    to the auspicious rapture provided by SIN. 
                                      
                                    FUCK YOUR BOOK OF LIES! 
                                    YOU WILL ALL DIE!
                                     
                                  
                                 IN THIS NIGHT SO DARK 
                                 written by Roni Jones.
                                     
                                     My life is a tormented whisper that can only shout the obscenities that my mind wants to hear
                                     The darkness that licks my lips and caresses my body seem to molest me in my eternal state of solitude
                                     Everlasting paranoid images engulf my present body like a moth in a flame
                                     The burning inside me keeps me alive as I waste away into your nothingness
                                     Thousands of hands touching me
                                     Eyes burning holes into me as I writhe and wrap myself around your mind
                                     I seep into your consciousness and bleed on your impure thoughts
                                     Only to infest you with my entirety and make you want me for the creature that I am
                                     I see you in my blindness now yearning and pulsating as I tear you apart from the inside out
                                     Your breathe ceases and I can feel your heart begin to slow
                                     You scream with all that you are worth, yet you are alone and there is no one to hear you
                                     Except me
                                     But you can't see me
                                     You can only feel me
                                     I touch your face and lick the crimson liquid from your mouth
                                     The warmth turns my cold body against me and I quiver in the flesh I call my own
                                     I rip your lips with mine
                                     Tearing away the scent from my lips
                                     The darkness encompasses me like a plague that I can not escape
                                     I cover my eyes as I feel the needles that I call disease bite at my naked appendages
                                     I fall to the ground next to your now decaying corpse
                                     Where there once was life
                                     Death reigns and holds true
                                     I touch my face and spread the juices I have taken from you
                                     I taste the succulent form of my fingers
                                     I let my tongue desecrate my own self
                                     Loathing surfaces and my vulnerability is now known to those who once lay before me begging to be released from the sadistic
                                    anticipation I hung over their bowed frames
                                     I am intrigued by the null void I seem to have fallen into
                                     I raise my broken form from the pavement
                                     I look once more at your poetic being
                                     Just laying there so still and disheveled
                                     I turn and walk slowly towards the growing moon that has spread its life across the midnight black sky
                                     Its lumination seems almost to contrast against the dark blanket it stands against
                                     So harsh is the nights sky I must close my eyes to see
                                     Images and faces appear and I wail with the disgust it brings to my thoughts
                                     I shiver against the cold wind as my skin crawls with your memories
                                     Once again I lay down and face the pavement
                                     I lick the ground that is now alive beneath my vessel
                                     So desolate and shallow
                                     My breathe quickens then ceases almost to suddenly
                                     I see you once again
                                     This time, in this light, so beyond any comparison, I must turn away from you now and face my own destiny
                                     Goodbye my stranger I whisper
                                     I turn and face my misfortune
                                     I see the faces of the souls I once held power over
                                     So unsteady am I, that I crash into the fiery walls and lie still until their invisible auras surround me and suffocate
                                    me
                                     With my last look I see myself
                                     How beautiful I was, but no longer am
                                     They invade my mind and I scream
                                     But there is no one to hear me now
                                     I can't see them
                                     But I can feel them
                                     They are all around me now
                                     I leave this crypt I used to call my own and join them in there imperative state of hatred
                                     We search for those weaker than us and we feed as I have fed on them and them on I
                                     Farewell to all those beneath me
                                     For you and I will meet one day
                                     And that day will be as malicious as the day you fell from our world to yours
                                     One day
                                     I promise you this
                                     Your time will surely come
                                     And there you will stand before me
                                     In the twilight hours of your life and you will become a part of my carnage
                                     Heeding no warning from anyone as I was once like you
                                     A human being
                                     A shattered shell
                                     A lifeless form
                                     Alone

                                 Stay one step ahead
                                     Be better than the best
                                     Hellfire and Damnation
                                     put your METAL to the test
                                     Blasting through your head
                                     We leave behind the dead
                                     Never looking back
                                     
                                     Bigger, faster, louder, harder
                                     This is a case of sonic murder
                                     Exploit temptation

                                     Bring the violence
                                     Turn you all to dust
                                     
                                     I feel no guilt
                                     for what I've done
                                     I'll never stop
                                     until we've won
                                     
                                     Perpetual machine of filth and fury
                                     Forge ahead without a worry

                                     So it is written
                                     So shall it be done

                                     sometimes I feel like I should have died
                                     but I'm alive just feeling dead on the inside
                                     I've seen, seen the world thru hopeless eyes
                                     I see, see the world thru violent eyes
                                     lived fast, spiraled out of control
                                     spit off the edge when there was nothing left to live for

                                 The undead walk all through the night
                                     They're hunting for you
                                     No use to hide
                                     
                                     Hungry for your flesh
                                     They'll take your breath
                                     Tear the meat from bone
                                     'till only blood is left
                                     
                                     When Hell is full,
                                     they'll walk the earth
                                     That time is here
                                     They're coming for you!
                                     
                                     Hungry for your flesh
                                     They'll take your breath

                                     Always more to kill
                                     Hunger drives them on
                                     Until you're all gone
                                     
                                     Hungry for your flesh
                                     They'll take your breath

                                     Now is the time
                                     This is the hour
                                     This is the Magick
                                     This is the power
                                     
                                     You have no idea
                                     of what we have begun
                                     You cannot comprehend 
                                     the horrors we have done
                                     This is symbolic of a 
                                     deeper psychosis
                                     This is symbolic of a

                                     Our time has come
                                     Your end is near
                                     This is the end 
                                     that you all fear
                                     
                                     A modern day symbiot
                                     infused with electricity
                                     A cybernetic Satanic entity
                                     Deliver us from your ridiculous hypocrisy
                                     This is the distinction between you and divinity
                                     
                                     When all is said
                                     and all is over
                                     Our booted feet
                                     will trample you down
                                     We will walk upon your corpses
                                     We'll bathe in your blood
                                     This is an infection that
                                     can't be undone
                                     This all of your collective 
                                     fears combined to one
                                     throbbing pulsing menace
                                     this cannot be undone
                                     It's a symbol of your sickness
                                     It's a sinthetik delusion
                                     this is the only logical conclusion
                                  
                                 CURSED
                                     
                                     You don't know when to shut your mouth
                                     Some battles aren't worth fighting
                                     You don't know when to walk away
                                     Some things aren't worth dying
                                     You should have fucking done as you're told
                                     If you don't want to end up crying
                                     You're gonna meet the back of my hand
                                     if you don't stop that goddamn whining
                                     
                                     I'm sick of hearing your shit
                                     Don't be such a fucking little bitch
                                     Why don't you cry about it somewhere else?
                                     
                                     What makes you think I care?
                                     You'll never get anywhere
                                     Get the fuck out of here
                                     Why are you still alive?
                                     
                                     What happend to natural selection?
                                     How did you survive this long?
                                     You should have been drowned at birth
                                     Shit is all that you're worth
                                     Get the fuck off my Earth
                                     I don't even want to see you in hell
                                     
                                     You're a waste of life, you should meet my knife
                                     But you'd leave a mes that I'd have to clean up
                                     You mean less than piss in a cup
                                     This is meant to put you down 
                                     Don't wanna see you around
                                     How many ways can I say it?
                                     
                                     Never again, I wish never before
                                     Don't want you to live anymore
                                     Die.........
                                  
                                 DESOLATE
                                     
                                     I am darkness defined, blasphemy made flesh
                                     
                                     I am he who has walked the spaces between worlds
                                     I have tread upon the wings of angels
                                     I have spilled the blood of Christ
                                     and given the gift of sorrow
                                     to all of his disciples
                                     
                                     I am darkness defined, blasphemy made flesh
                                     
                                     I am the silent fear that runs down your spine
                                     The cause of the primitive instinct to run.
                                     RUN!!!!!
                                     
                                     Sin in skin
                                     
                                     (spoken)
                                     I am of he who walks the Earth with the cloven hoof
                                     The Great Horned Beast of Hell itself...
                                  
                                 SCARRED

                                     Scars don't go away
                                     and they don't really heal
                                     I scarred myself for you 
                                     and you say "big deal"
                                     I cut my skin, I liked you so much
                                     I made myself bleed for a thing that would not be
                                     
                                     Sleeping pills and bandages
                                     Sedation and broken glass
                                     
                                     When I had the blade in my hand
                                     I was thinking of you
                                     When the cuts bled through the sheets
                                     I was dreaming of you
                                     And when I talk to you months from now
                                     It'll be a reminder of how you hate me now
                                     
                                     Sleeping pills and bandages
                                     Sedation and broken glass
                                     
                                     I scarred myself for you
                                  
                                 ILL DISPOSED  (Lyrics/vocals by Bloodstain) 
  I've come to take your life  I got this big fucking knife  I've
                                    cut, cut your veins, then mine  Somehow this evil's on my side  Hatred burns inside my brain  And now you're bleeding
                                    again 
  I can't think too straight  All I see is red  All I feel is hate 
  Fire burns out of control  This
                                    bitch is trying to save my soul  I've got one more round to go  I've got no one left to show  And now there's no
                                    turning back  Too many body parts to hack 
  I can't think too straight  All I see is red  All I feel is HATE
                                     
                                  
                                 EMOTIONALLY DECEASED

                                     Love for all those who have lost their faith
                                     Loss of friends
                                     Loss of brains
                                     I lost the one who meant everything
                                     
                                     I remember the day my heart turned black
                                     I remember the day my soul turned cold

                                     You lost my trust
                                     You gained my Hate
                                     You lost some blood
                                     You gained disgrace
                                     
                                     I remember the day my heart turned black
                                     I remember the day my soul turned cold

                                    The needle slowly pricks the skin 
                                    A new release of the fluids within 
                                    A few more times and it will start 
                                    to reduce the supply to my frantic heart 
                                    My breath is shallow, my colour is pale 
                                    My vision has begun to fail 
                                    Time slows down as life seeps away 
                                    A new existance begins today 
                                      
                                    A numbing warmth all over turns cold 
                                    the world's grip on me loses hold 
                                    A numbing warmth all over slowly turns cold 
                                    I feel the world's grip begin to lose hold

                                    This was inevitable 
                                    it could not go on without consequence 
                                    Endurance tested, limits reached and surpassed

                                    I am here to show you what you're afraid to see 
                                    This is the horrible truth that you must face 
                                    I'll draw back the curtain of fantasy to reveal 
                                    what must really be 
                                      
                                    That desperate moment when you realize 
                                    that none of your precious dreams will never be real 
                                    This is what I'm here to show you 
                                    Your clever mind has lied to you 
                                    But all lies can be penetrated 
                                    for the light of truth must always shine through 
                                      
                                    This is your life 
                                    This is what you have wasted 
                                    Only one time around 
                                    It's yourself that's being cheated 
                                      
                                    Your house of cards is about to fall 
                                    Your convolutions were for nothing 
                                    The careful structure of fallacy is 
                                    crippled by my simple words 
                                      
                                    This is your life 
                                    This is what you have wasted 
                                    Only one time around 
                                    It's yourself that's being cheated 
                                      
                                    You should have listened to your conscience 
                                    Because now you're FUCKED!

                                     You haven't learned anything from me
                                     
                                     You wasted my time
                                     
                                     You ruined your life
                                     
                                     Now it's all over
                                     
                                     with the slice of a knife

                                     This was your life, now it's gone
                                     
                                     
                                     
                                     Consuming apathy has come over you
                                     
                                     Even love of your friends could not get through to you
                                     
                                     I saw you slipping away...
                                     
                                     Further into your fantasy land
                                     
                                     So sure you were right, but now you're holding Death's hand

                                     This was your life, now it's gone
                                     
                                     
                                     
                                  
                                 A SLIGHT CASE OF DEATH 
                                    She lay there quietly, the most curious look upon her face, 
                                    Her eyes closed, breathing slowly, elegant with perfect grace. 
                                    No longer moving I held her in my arms...I could feel her getting colder 
                                    But there was nothing I could do. Soon she would be gone. 
                                    A late night tragedy, right before my eyes...every day someone dies, 
                                    but not like this. So calm, she rests. Her fingers curled around my hand,  
                                    her soft hair falling across her face. So unexpected, this terrible event. 
                                    Much too soon, I would be alone in this place.... 
                                      
                                    Accidental transition, a shift of the light 
                                    My burning fire extinguished completely tonight 
                                    No use to try to fight, it's already too late 
                                    My fallen, shattered body- post exhanguinate 
                                      
                                    I have a slight case of death 
                                      
                                    With a sudden explosion my mind erased, my soul defaced, 
                                    a chalky outline of my body traced 
                                    All that I was, leaking through my skin 
                                    A vulgar exposure of my broken within 
                                      
                                    I have a slight case of death
                                     
                                  
                                 THE DARK MIRROR 
                                    Blackness, pure abject blackness, completely engulfs my body, my mind altering my perception 
                                    and staining my soul with overwhelming darkness. The once vibrant flowers of my life have long since wilted and receded
                                    into the withered stems that are all that I am... 
                                    Now here I am on my captive chair of apathy, trapped by my own spiraling madness, my being 
                                    searing with the flames of a deep sorrow in the totally black void that is everything. 
                                    Black is all there is and all that I am. Darkness Eternal..... 
                                    I want to dress you up in the colors of death: Black and white and blood all over. Hypnotic, 
                                    narcotic, seemingly vacant stare masks the true turmoil that rages within. A mind ravaged by 
                                    the experience that is life. 
                                    Your body still moves but I know you're dead inside. Your soul taken by happiness denied. 
                                    Corporeal existance, a prison of flesh...post-mortem fashion the blood is still fresh.
                                     
                                  
                                 A DEMONS' LAMENT 
                                    We are locked in a slow but systematic decline. Mental brakes have been applied and a  
                                    slowing of evolution is the result. Idiocy, depravity and self depreciating behaviour has 
                                    become fashionable, a revoltingly and increaingly acceptable trend. 
                                    We are all prisoners on this planetary trash pile, unable to escape the stench of our own  
                                    filth. We are the facillitors of our own misery and eventual demise. "Common sense" has 
                                    become a non-applicable term to the general populace and the mere handful of people that 
                                    still have any are on the endangered species list. 
                                    Each day I struggle to hide my contempt for the moronic majority, trying relentlessly to 
                                    cram their phantom boogie-man, power drunk, abusing and deadbeat father figure they call 
                                    the Almighty and his over-rated and exaggerated son down my already sore throat. 
                                    People maim, torture and kill the innocent and the helpless and then have the gall to label 
                                    me as "evil"!!??!! If I am evil because I have my own mind and I am not afraid to use it and I 
                                    Live my life the way I choose to regardless of what outsiders' opinions are then SO BE IT!
                                     
                                  
                                 I KEEP YOU BLIND 
                                    I am the one, disaster in motion 
                                    The one you follow in fear 
                                    This is why, the reason you'll die 
                                    I am the one you can't resist 
                                    You look to me, and I turn away 
                                    But you can't stop and won't ever know why 
                                      
                                    You don't really want to know, so don't even ask why 
                                    Who I am, you would never understand 
                                    Things I do, I do for myself...not for you 
                                    I keep you blind, what I say is always true 
                                      
                                    The endless circle, the unbreakable chain 
                                    A trick of fate and now I reign 
                                    LISTEN TO ME, I AM THE LIAR 
                                    Follow, no questions into the fire 
                                    I am CHAOS and I am DEATH 
                                    I am the only choice that you have left 
                                      
                                    Control is mine, I am dominant 
                                    You want my love, but you know I can't 
                                      
                                    Only my anger is what you will find 
                                    With no remorse I will leave you behind 
                                      
                                    You don't really want to know, so don't even ask why 
                                    I am who I am, you would never understand 
                                    The things I do I do for myself...not for you 
                                    Now you're fucked and you know it's true
                                     
                                  
                                 OPINIONS ARE LIKE ASSHOLES...(everyone has one, most of them stink and I don't want to hear yours!)

                                    Can you feel my repulsion? Can you see my hate? 
                                    Can you know what I think of you? Can you know  
                                    it's too late?

                                    All that I want I will take from you, 
                                    All that you have is nothing.

                                    I want you to... 
                                      
                                    I cannot help you with your plight, 
                                    this is going to be a super-long night 
                                    Super-long, endlessly, endlessly, endlessly, 
                                    I will hear your plea for me, I will hear you calling to me. 
                                    But I will not obey, because I have something else to do... 
                                      
                                    Sit outside, sit outside, sit outside yourself 
                                    Take a look back, Take a look back at yourself. 
                                    It is sickening to behold,  
                                    The filth and the garbage that you are. 
                                    You're a stupid piece of shit!

                                    Into the depths of your own hypocrisy 
                                    I shove your face, like a dogs' nose into shit 
                                    Even still you fail to realize that you're wrong 
                                    And continue to point at me 
                                      
                                    It's no burden, it's a release 
                                    To be a freak like me 
                                    I found your weak link  
                                    And severed it clean 
                                      
                                    I feel sorry for you - you can't even see that you're a slave

                                    A newborn expression of pain: 
                                    My gateway is held open so that the two become one, an angry, confused grey force, 
                                    The sides have combined through a process of experiences, the light and the dark, now a twilight 
                                    entity that is the creation. 
                                    The creation of all that I know, all I percieve, all that I am. This feeling so intense,  
                                    pulsing, throbbing, burning through every inch of my soul. I am here now, the new one that wears the face of the one
                                    who has always been. 
                                    Hidden, the change undetected as always but it has happend, IS happening constantly. Never the same anymore. Always
                                    learning, growing, living in a new concept.  
                                    NOT EVIL * NOT PURE ANYTHING 
                                    existing, existing, existing, never ending: the silver and the green, the yellow and the blood always
                                    infected with life, never ever over, regenerates, saturates all that there
                                    is, this feeling, this tragedy, the stone that is wet and broken 
                                    Severed by slavery and passion, this self inflicted metamorphosis, the twilight changeling still sticky with the fluids
                                    of the birth cycle, completes the circle again. 
                                    Imagined and real, mental and physical, the dream butterfly with kaliedoscope wings shows the path to the new way. The
                                    only way for me. Once again I am Beginning Infinity...

                                    forgetting the things i don't want to see, i begin a search for the one who is of understanding. teach me the lessons
                                    i need to learn, the things that give me control in a balance, equal balance between myself and the other. TRUST! do not lie
                                    to me. ever. dishonesty, even if it is to spare my feelings will bring around anger faster than anything else.<thisistrue> 
                                       do you want to see my ugliness?would you like me to show you the disaster i can become? are you afraid of
                                    the truth? the world seems to feed on things that are unpleasant. what is there to see within the opaque facade that i show
                                    you? things that shift without warning, impulsive thoughts that are barely, if at all, restrained. maybe something beautiful,
                                    a multifaceted changeling, unpredictable, passionate, morbid, and unbreakable. chaos. 3. order and control. checks and balances.
                                    unique. free. i have finally escaped my box of sorrow. rage was the key. my own inner strength broke the lock and burned the
                                    walls. never again will i allow myself to become captive to that damned chamber again. a frustration that grew until it could
                                    no longer be contained, a longing for freedom from my captive depression. {butnowihidebehindalie}at least i am happier now.
                                    but i'm still alone. maybe i always will be. i have done this to myself. i have been called cold, unemotional, unfeeling,
                                    shallow. (itsnottrue) i feel things very deeply, in fact. i just don't make a display of it. don't like it? i don't care.

                                    This place is so vacant... 
                                    I'm cold but I'm burning, I live inside you. 
                                    I once was a creature of innocence, alone and afraid of the violent world. 
                                    Beaten down on a daily basis for being who I am. 
                                      
                                    (chorus) 
                                    Go ahead and hate me. You can try to break me. 
                                    I want you to smile while I bleed. 
                                    I hope it makes you happy to see all the scars you've left me. 
                                    I'll always give you what you need. 
                                      
                                    I soon discovered I was stronger than you! 
                                    I stood up and knocked you down from above me, 
                                    now you look up and see me standing over you. 
                                      
                                    (repeat chorus) 
                                      
                                    I'm all alone, you've left me alone in the dark, so cold. 
                                    I'm cold but I'm burning with frustration inside. 
                                    This place is so vacant, without you-I died.

                                    Help me to become a more efficient machine 
                                    Help me to get rid of my soul 
                                    I want to erase my emotions 
                                    Be free from the animosity I feel 
                                    I once was just like you 
                                    I lived a normal life 
                                    I released what was inside 
                                    Now this is what I have become 
                                      
                                    The static inside is just leftover insights 
                                    of a mind, no longer something that can be considered human 
                                      
                                    Relentless empty built up inside 
                                    No cares, no worries, no fears 
                                    No more love and no more hate 
                                    Make up my body of wires and steel 
                                    Hydraulics and electricity give me my life 
                                    Bury the old me in Hell
