Cheaper ways for cheaper lives
An innocent grin is your disguise
Dime-sized cracks still break the dam
With time
The Atomic God’s awakening
While still you stall and add delay
The catastrophe is cauterized
You say
Run
Or ionize
Our DNA is prone to hybridize
Molt
You’re standing still
Gluttony’s a bird’s eye style kill
Sand and boron fan the flames
With a heavy mix of lead and clay
And all will know the legacy
You made
Is the issue really fixed if
Outside this barren womb
Our children are all dead within
A day
Run
Or ionize
Our DNA is prone to hybridize
Molt
You’re standing still
Gluttony’s a bird’s eye style kill
Bring to trial your honesty
And admit your election lust
A nuclear fog is haunting us
The fault is yours entirely
Run
Or ionize
Our DNA is prone to hybridize
Molt
You’re standing still
Gluttony’s a bird’s eye style kill

Necrosis

Disease is my design
Pathogens for the network hive
Infect the mainframe drive
New urban necrosis seeps
Into the substations
See them flock like moths to light
Chaotic, confused, and blind
Their wings will singe and dry
History is my reflection
Fester now in my infection
Leaning over this tower of glass
Total collapse is your intention
Floating flotsam at the dam
Flooding sewage emanating stench
Feeling again as the first man
Stood between Sumer and Elam
Seeing the Great War again
Fought without rifle or trench
Love completely our enemy
Stockholm city reality
History is my reflection
Fester now in my infection
Leaning over this tower of glass
Total collapse is your intention

Animal Instinct

Knocking loud I hear some strangers at my door
Bitter and brutal and early to arrive
Singing in winds that Winter’s drawing near
Digging in deeper to bury us alive
She’s a cold, hungry bitch that will freeze you to the bone
Frostbite and gangrene will never let you go
Twenty feet of snow and our supplies are gone
I seek the new hunger now guided by my tongue
The Forlorn Hope has disappeared into the white
Waving goodbye as we feast upon the hides
A couple days from now we’ll be chewing on the ice
But the long for human flesh is now stronger than for mice
Such pain and misery as I endured that day
Is beyond description I heard the Donner say
Starvation brings to slaughter our familial bonds
Civility absconded with innocence at the taste
If we ever come home how will we be
Different from the devils that we are today
I’ll surely hang for hunting my family
But I really never did see a spider swing
Tangled in the web it wove
Strangled in the web it wove
Dead in the web it wove

Dawn of the Second Sun

Guide my hand to the abyss
I’ve branded the crucifix in my fist
If maybe I pour just a few drops more
This sanguine door will open from my wrist
Metaphysical being has levitical needs
Apostles to the extra human hive
Deliver unto me your damning deeds
My sights are set for paradise
Protege, oh righteous one
Entitled to doing what you want
You’ll burn for me to a thousand degrees
In a self-fulfilling prophecy
Begotten god o forgotten throne
The chair of heaven his chair alone
Sleeping hounds be no dogs of mine
It’s aging time now death may die
Long live Leviathan we’re selling this old flesh
Ascend my new body it’s better than the rest
A second sun is cresting just beyond the sea
New age, new dawn, black sun shine on me
Black sun shine
Shine on me
Black sun shine
Shine on me
Black sun shine
Shine on me
