Darkness flees the rising sun The village lies ahead It will wake to a new day soon Soon they all be dead We came in cover of moonless night Fifty men at arms Now at first morning light The church bell sounds the alarm Sacrifice to Gods of old Bleed them of their lives Fresh blood on our swords Gods of War arise Sacrifice to Gods of old Bleed them of their lives Fresh blood on our swords Gods of War arise Hear the tortured screams Shattering the air They awake from soothing dreams Into their worst nightmare Fire sweeps their homes They feel the dragon's breath Consuming and destructive flames Agonizing death Some seek shelter in the church A refuge for those with faith But we know how to smoke them out A pyre will be raised But those who choose to stand and fight Will die with dignity For the unfortunate few who survive Waits a life in slavery The day draws to an end The night comes dark and cold We return to our ships With silver, slaves and gold We gave them agony As they fell and die The Gods have granted victory For our sacrifice The day draws to an end The night comes dark and cold We return to our ships With silver, slaves and gold We gave them agony As they fell and die The Gods have granted victory For our sacrifice

I get the call from the gods of speed I feel the rumble of the seat I'll go from here to top velocity From there it's all eternity The point of no return's in the rear view mirror I'll return to somewhere but it's not here Screaming into the sky I feel the wind on my face Steal the light heavens before night steals the day Don't wanna solve the big bad mysteries The gods have whispered just enough to me If they see fit to bless my machine I'll go fast and gracefully Screaming into the sky I feel the wind on my face Steal the light heavens before night steals the day Screaming into the sky I feel the wind on my face Steal the light heavens before night steals the day

Beams of fire sweep through my head Thrusts of pain increasingly engaged Sensory receptors succumb And now I know all the agony My crimson liquid so frantically spilled The ruby fluid of life unleashed Ripples ascend to the surface of my eyes Their red pens drawing at random, at will A myriad pains begotten in their wake The bastard spawn of a mutinous self The regurgitation of my micro nemesis Salivating red at the prospect of my ruin, my doom Malfunction The means for its ascent Bloodletting, the stringent voice to beckon my soul So futile, any resisting tension As death-induced mechanics propel its growth The implement, the device of my extinction The terminating clockwork of my gleeful bane The definitive scourge of its mockery The end-art instruments lethality attained Heed, it commands, heed my will Bleed, it says, bleed you will Falling into the clarity of undoing Scornful gods haggle for my soul Mind's eye flickers and vellicates as I let go Taunting whispers accompany my deletion A sneering grin, the voice of my reaper Chanting softly the song of depletion

Strive, strive, surmount the obstacles Become the essence of your goals, hereditary dream Pray that you may attain that destiny Fall into the coveted line Where life is but a theme of pretense in lustrous guise Claims and values, charts of means and status Plaques to show your strife Do your neighbor clones approve? Picture perfect illustration, imitation of life Where the path is evened out, all obstructions removed Great, viable citizen Are you happy now? Then praise your god and bow Shimmering surface The gleam of blinding lies Become the product The thing you so desire To what length would you go to reach your goals? What mantra will you use to justify your means? Who will you betray to secure your dream? What sins will you commit to avoid your sins to be seen? Do not look down Do not look down Or the abysmal beast of nonconformity might Stare some unpleasant truth into your desensitized mind Shimmering surface The gleam of blinding lies Become the product The thing you so desire

Skyline draped in shimmering red Irradiant and treacherous Neon prophecies hail the end, the capital of piety Totalitarianopolis, city of dread The glorious streets of dystopia continuously running red This is where self is relinquished Autonomy sacrificed The idolatry of tyrants compulsory Welcome all to MonstroCity where norm is that of the insane All is illusion in MonstroCity Bow to it, it knows your name Relishing the idea of damnation "The wailing and gnashing of teeth" They know for sure where judgment's due "What's above and what's beneath" This is where we fail, where the self-righteous reign The empire of imaginary ghosts This is blind credulity's domain MonstroCity In here everyone knows "the truth" Which unforgiving icon is real Intolerance and prejudice saturates their zeal This is where self is relinquished Autonomy sacrificed The idolatry of tyrants compulsory
