Martyrs 04:20
You and I will always be from one and the same But we're just pawns There is no escape from this Fact of humanity Power lies in the greediest minds Breeding poverty It's not the desert, it's not the heat that creates A poisoned chalice, a thirst that can't be quenched Manipulation is the tool of the gods The black death Fuel the power so the martyrs can die and rot Are people worth less alive? Or are they worthless? Or are they just a message? Are families just for the hive? To follow blindly, to die willingly All have been betrayed Betrayed Betrayed Playing the game for salvation Brings only death Pick up on the scent of bodies burning in the sun We have seen such blood shed In another's name Whenever will all this sickness end? Breaking the bodies we cannot mend This sickness The scent of blood, consumes the air Families stand helplessly beside Misguided souls so foolishly allied For nirvana, for the lies that abide To drive the world to burn and collide Reaping, a force of contention Condemn the foreign lives Where greed and hate survive The worthless will die We have seen such blood shed In another's name Whenever will all this sickness end? Breaking the bodies we cannot mend Will all this sickness end? We have seen such blood Shed in another's name Faces in the sand haunt our lives They're worthless, they're martyrs, they're body parts

Breaking their minds into the smallest pieces Breed the dissension and teach the violence Glorifying bloodshed Fractures love in the head Intoxicate them with a thousand channels Desensitise away the morals We have set the benchmark Futures lie in the dark I guess it doesn't matter now you see We've taught our children love can't set them free We bleed our hearts out for them now We all fall down This parasitic virus It taints the soul inside Poisoning innocent minds To rot them from inside Media broadcasting the hanging, the dying, the lying I guess it doesn't matter now you see We've taught our children love can't set them free We bleed our hearts out for them now We bleed our hearts out for them now We all fall down We all fall down We've still got time to set things straight We can't forget it's our mistakes That lead our loved ones astray With dysfunction in their minds It's our fault It's our fault It's our fault We cast the spell that rots children inside We cast the spell that rots children inside Fear our creation afraid for our lives Fear our creation afraid for our lives Bludgeoning rape, or lives that they take There's no escape as their hands suffocate We've gotta take blame for the mess we create No God to relieve us, repair our mistakes The minds of the young our lies saturate We failed as the mentors as they emulate us

Favour None 04:10
How many hearts will bleed, to satisfy Your lust, for the blood of us? Drink it Purify All the sin, that crawls in skin How many lives will be Torn from this world in his name? I can't believe we're here Debating on some prophecy Destroying, all the lives, of those who disagree Repenting, forgives those atrocities And now, you lie Come, embrace the world, favour none Ending your despise, your ghost of one You think you're saved from your sins? Fuck that Consumed by your lack of reason Betraying us with your lies Is this Your answer Use fear to unify? Replace the apathy Rethink your life! Teach us To love each of us Believe, testify Thoughts within, are conquering How many lives would be Safe from this oppressive game? Come, embrace the world, favour none Ending your despise, your ghost of one Come, embrace the world Resist, all you believe There's so much to live for Without this confusion We will rise again Look what you've done Through cheapening life Your empty promises convince them to die Will you learn? Life's precious, reason is the truth Power is no longer in the currency of guilt Come, embrace the world, favour none Ending your despise, your ghost of one Come, embrace the world, favour none Ending your despise, your ghost of one You think you're saved from your sins? The end is not what you The end is not what you think
