The Arsonist 04:44
Fires burning on the horizon Flames as far as the eye can see Behold this burning image before you All life is engulfed in a fiery red sea One man's dreams And anothers desire To bury all life Beneath a pile of ashes Incineration takes its toll Fires rage beyond control Undying obsession To destroy his creation Watch the worlds cremation Succumb to death within the blaze The time has now come for The earth's rebirth in flames Wildfires surrounding There's no escaping me Longing to watch it burn away Only the embers shall remain Scorching the earth consuming all of life Cry out in vain My happiness is measured by your pain and suffering There are to be no fucking survivors - you'll pray for rain So the arsonist speaks And all shall heed the warnings from thee And the arsonist seeks To bury it all in a tidal wave of flame Longing to watch it burn away Only the embers shall remain Scorching the earth consuming all of life Cry out in vain My happiness is measured by your pain and suffering There are to be no fucking survivors - you'll pray for rain And buried beneath the ashes The dreams of the broken and dying I want to watch it burn I long to see you burn So the arsonist speaks.

You kneel down before the father And call out his name "Anything you ask of me" "I shall obey" You will never find the strength To release what lies within Plagued by the words Forced on to you from him Tears of despair Fill my eyes Spreading within me My hate grows stronger Filth and corruption Intrude my mind Tearing me apart From inside The epitome of hate Scars your soul Lies and deception Mind control Forgive me father For now I shall sin Released to the world Your reign now shall end I seek my redemption As I end your life The tables now have turned As it's your turn to die Now you hide behind your collar A servant faithful to your god Defiling the young at will Neglecting so-called laws The dominance you once possessed Is overcome by fear The desire in which you obsessed Will soon be laid to rest Tears of despair Fill my eyes Spreading within me My hate grows stronger Filth and corruption Intrude my mind Tearing me apart From inside

Suffocating Hard to breathe These walls surround me I cannot be Have dreams been shattered Or just begun Decades have come and passed I must remain strong One can only hope That this is not the end Reach into obscurity To find myself again Festering within me The anguish - the pain Can this ever be Or will I feel ashamed The endless sands of time Can smash one's desire Not to wither away Into days gone by With every breath I feel it crawling near The end of our time Is becoming clear From the beginning One's life becomes a test Who will rise above And who will be much less Forever I will be Aspiration to the dream Into a burning past This fading destiny Believe in me I am the one Sickened and vile For you I have come For it is you Who makes me hate To feel my pain Suffer again What have I become ? (What have I become) What have I become Reaching deep inside This empty shell of life To grasp what is mine Fucking doubt me again I'll bring you to your knees Pray for your soul You're my fucking disease Look into my eyes Tell me what you see I sentence you now To an endless life of grief You are a waste of life Forever now, I'm your pain Never again will I fall Weakened by my shame One can only hope That this is not the end Reach into obscurity To find myself again

Here comes the new regime Behind the scenes as they pull the string Smokey mirror intent to deceive To make you see what they want you to see Years of deception at their hands You fall into their master plan The after lie too blind to see They have control they make you believe Now Make you believe Naïve and innocent Deception their intent Assimilate control your thoughts Your freedom now is lost Fucking lost Deception the finest art Manipulate the masses Society torn apart Misled by those in control Deceived by authority The lies take their toll Look at us now We pay for their lies They just walk away Walk away Time after time The same excuse Trying to justify This sick power abuse Can it be It's happened again Enough is enough It's time for this to end Deception the finest art Manipulate the masses Society torn apart Misled by those in control Deceived by authority The lies take their toll

It’s been a thousand years A millennium of destruction Stained by the bloodshed of man. Another senseless war The death toll still rises As history repeats itself again and again. Nothing is learned from mistakes that have been made before. Body count rises they’re just casualties of war. Another soldier killed for reasons still unknown. Left behind, just memories. Still trying to figure out what the fuck we’re fighting for. Fuck these foreign lands. We are all numbers, just part of the government’s plan. Soldiers still falling, the bloodstains on their hands. Nothing is learned from mistakes that have been made before. Body count rises just casualties of war. Never (never) (never) again shall existence be erased. Broken (broken) shell of a man just a number to be replaced. Suffer (suffer) (suffer) no more as the firing starts to cease. Never (never) (never) again will you be a casualty. It’s been a thousand years, a millennium of destruction. Stained by the bloodshed of man. Another senseless war, the death toll still rising. As history repeats itself again and again. Nothing is learned from mistakes that have been made before. Body count rises, just casualties of war.

Bow down to the centuries As you drown in your own bloodbath. Bodies butchered and defiled. Wiped out in the aftermath. (aftermath) I hear their screams As they beg and suffer. It’s not a dream. Slowly you die from torture. You run for cover as they approach. Sentenced to die, firmly they grasp your throat. There’s no escape now, the end will soon be here. Victims left slaughtered, no signs of life appear. Centuries of …. Centuries of blood. No remorse in their eyes. Ignored are the cries, as the slaughter begins. Soon there will be nothing left, just visions of death. Will this ever end? Bow down to the centuries As you drown in your own blood bath. Bodies butchered and defiled. Wiped out in the aftermath. (aftermath) I hear their screams As they beg and suffer. It’s not a dream. Slowly you die from torture.
