1.	Ghost in the Machine 06:20	lyrics	buy track
The great temptation To live beyond the flesh Preserved alive Inside the machine Unlimited freedom Of purest consciousness Endless knowledge Now at your bidding Disassociation The mind disconnected Agoraphobia Too much distance without border With no point of reference Falling forever Mind disconnected With no anchor Panicked hysteria With no hope of comfort Cyber induced psychosis Now without form Now without conscience Humanity gone No longer alive An insane ghost Within the walls of storage Terror and malice Waiting within
2.	The Blind leading the Blind 05:13	lyrics	buy track
What makes you think that you are untouchable A seat in power does not make you invincible You allow thousands to die, you don't even care Money is your interest and staying in power The lives it costs mean nothing in your mind Just spreading your ignorance to the sheep who follow You are the worst of the worst and the masses are waking up Even your followers are starting to dwindle Just a pompous pig, convinced of your own worth Can't even form a cogent sentence you just grunt and squeal How dare anyone question your foolish nonesense How dare anyone expect you to lead with honor You are the the parody of what we have become The emobodiment of greed and arrogance incarnate You would burn all of us alive if it made you a dollar You won't be in office for long and we're coming You can't see beyond the end of your orange nose Blood with be paid with blood of this you can be sure Such a foolish man to think this won't come haunt you We would execute you pubicly if given half the chance Such a stupid man leading those even dumber The weight of your decisions is crushing those you rule Ignorance and baseless pride are all that you exude For a man know for the art of the deal, you're such a fucking fool
3.	Christ infection 04:45	lyrics	buy track
Blessed Unholy blasphemy I feel intrinsic Within my deepest self Hatred For the deceivers of millions False Christ’s minions Eat your god Feel this Cognitive dissonance telling This weak lie you’re selling Be your god Tear down the idol You’ve worshipped for so long Blind white sheep Raised in the dark Just bred to be food To feel lucky to praise God Bring upon the altar Your finest lamb to the slaughter Prove yourself to Jehovah You only matter on your face Wretched Hypocrisy entwined Within the fabric of this belief Faceless The god who judges you It’s not love if you’re never good enough Anguish You must suffer for him It’s not enough you were created, he needs your pain too Hatred You must convert the world To spread Christian enslavement
4.	I, Abomination 04:18	lyrics	buy track
Twisted of form Grown too quickly A monster from birth With features of a goat My mind bent to evil It’s my birthright My mother a human My father an outer god Hear my brother calling Feel the fear seeping in Hear your voices screaming Into the dark Out here alone They do their best to keep away Weak meager beings Fragile and short lived I will invoke the power From my father Very soon my vision will come forth
5.	Year of the Rat 05:19	lyrics	buy track
Under the threat of total annihilation Nuclear fire, the third world war Narrow averted mindless destruction To be stricken by pestilence Our universe is broken Spinning out of control The world in turmoil Under the leadership of pigs Two horseman have visited so far War and pestilence Famine to come next, here by storm Death comes in the winter
6.	Virosapiens 05:52	lyrics	buy track
Tirelessly we writhe and crawl A hive mind collective of consumption Base desires, greed and gluttony These are the staples of this society Taught to believe that you can become elite Slave harder, enslave others further Toxic psychotic doctrine To keep the powerful exactly where they are You’re no one You’re nothing You will never become more than they let you You’re no one You’re nothing Just keep grinding away We are a primate based virus Butcher predators destroying all we touch We are the worst plague Selfish wicked bald apes raping the world There is no limit to what we’ll do Any cost acceptable to forward our ends Animal testing, nuclear hell There is never too far for us The gods are laughing at our squalor We think ourselves so advanced But we’re dying by our own hand And it just can’t come soon enough
7.	Plague 06:16	lyrics	buy track
Panic sweeps the world as the plague comes full force Never in our lifetime have we seen such widespread fear And as the bodies pile up, one thing becomes certain Once the dead are buried, things will never be the same There's no where to run All that can be done is hide And as the death toll rises There seems to be no end Blood on the hands of our leaders Sickening swine they are We are paying with blood for what they have done And they point fingers at countries they want to blame When in actuality the fault is their own Ignoring warnings, only concerned with money This is something you can't just lie away
8.	Manifest 04:38	lyrics	buy track
The acid burns Stench of burning skin lingers Bloodless wounds Burn and hiss Body left for dead Alone in the snow Wounds steam silently Slowly devoured by night So weak So naïve So worthless Such a waste
9.	Quarantine (instrumental) 04:33		buy track
