Caged - Downfall

Life trapped in a screen,
measured in numbers.
Death of your dreams,
Ruin of your mind.
Existence marked by rut,
people born to lose.
Standardization,
Alienation!
Day by day you turn around, to look for some kind of human touch, but you face the isolation of this modern culture. Appearance over substance. Fake relationships. Stupid selfishness. The whole thing amplified by a terminal.
Downfall, Sorrow, Distress, Can’t keep existing!
Consciousness, Love, Empathy, a new solidarity!
Break this fucking silence,
find the real world again.
Put an end to the violence
that technology has created!
Rip the cables
Of your servitude!
Human relations
Will be your fortitude!
We can’t wait anymore,
Revolt!

suffer
intoxicate
...so suffer
feel your limbs going numb
your words getting lost
as your lungs are giving up
you're rotting inside out
so don't reach for my arm
you've dragged me down too far
already, so atone
for everything you've done
atone...
somewhere i had to draw the line
you fucking parasite
let them sink
suffocate in the poison
let them sink...
... all the way to rock bottom
i won't assist to that shit anymore
saw too many who got lost
dig your own grave, go on,
but i cut you out
from my life
forever

you found your disgusting techniques
to blind my senses
to keep me consume endlessly
until I'm ready
ready to prove your superiority
in your world of mindless cruelty
...when I see the tragedy of this bird
I see the tragedy of mankind as a whole
the upper few will always find a way to keep us in that sweet spot
where they can use us, yet we serve them willingly
and when we become useless in this profit oriented world
our bodies will be scrapped, and laughed at
and they take pride in it, that they can just do it...
but i'll starve to death in darkness
before filling another man's stomach
before you could crush my bones with your teeth
hiding under towels from morality
but you can't hide from us anymore
stomp

xRISALEx - Undying War
02:56

Breathing but cleansed of life
Silent screams bleed into the night
Rape, torture and murder
Emerging from the misty waters of the "normal"
Sentient, alive, just like me
Reduced to pure commodity
Born into a life of slaughter
Suffering, devoid of mercy
Life's songs unsung
Reduced to pure resource
Drained and dried up
Suffering, devoid of mercy
I feel my heart bleed
As it all burns in me
We'll see an end to this bloodshed
This necessitation of cruelty
An undying war on this legacy
Of domination to set all free
Where deliberate blindness is a plague
Give me one reason to swallow my tongue and blunt my blade
For those who choose to feast on corpses and evoque the bloodbath on their plates
The judgement
The militance
This crusade
All justified
Against those who bring hell on earth for pleasure
Against those who terrorize the innocent for profit
Against the torment and slaughter normalized
Against apathy and idleness abetting ecocide
Vegan straight edge.

For generation after generation we've clinged onto this legacy of domination .
As we've drifted further away from equity, from the nature and from each other
We've suffered under the systems of control, enslavement and exploitation
And the cancer kept growing, now the black clouds of apocalyptic visions enshroud our collective imagination,
Giving us no choice of salvation
Yet we dare to imagine
We dare to dream of a new future, of a new world that nourishes by the legacy of freedom
In this age of darkness, with this world we carry in our hearts
We shall bring the salvation
Within my bones I feel the coming of extinction
In my blood, it boils, the heat brings devastation
A thousand omens passed by
In the name of growth all dies
The leviathan regains its vita
In expense of all life
When the forests fall, and lives become unlife
When the Earth is consumed by the greed of the empire
In the wake of our descend to hell, purging flames remind us
Heavens shall be ours to craft
I feel the need to shatter this dominion
When it's kingdom come, drowning all life
When the hourglass brings us closer to our demise
In the wake of our descend to hell, purging flames remind us
Heavens shall be ours to craft
I feel the need to behead the leviathan
With all my being I feel
All the agony spreaded by the hands of few
All the grief encapsulated in the laments for dying potential
I feel the need for a new hope to save us from annihilation
I feel the need for a cleansing rain, in the shape of a revolution
Let the rain fall
Onto the flames devastating us
Let the rain fall
Onto the seeds of a new world.

(Intro)
Another season, another shield
Blocked away the pain
Nauseating pressure – keeps her alive
Thrown back in time
Another season, another shield
Crushed against a wall of fear
This was not meant to be fair
Nobody was near
Falling asleep to enter the nightmare
That's where it all starts over again
Never ending season, always on repeat
Shield is crumbling down
His sordid blood, fogging into (her) reality
In this dark place is where she got lost
Foul human, sordid blood
Horrid abuse, not worthy

Face to face with reality
Devolved contemporary fallacy
Bureaucratic heretic
Bulled-over fanatic
Cease voting to the east
Their policies hinder feast
A sober mind is a weapon
Seek vengeance your life depends on
13 years for what
Welfare left to rot
Under oppressive power
Funds left to devour
By the entropic cabal
Murder them all
Use the blade they conjure
They're no gods just false proctors
You're killing the wrong type of pig
Death by a thousand cuts

Catastrophe flails in the hands of the despoiler
Machination and movement weeps disorder
Benign ecstasy reaping thy rewards
Sow the seeds of sedition
Under the burning sky indoctrinate my feeling
The Abyss chewed and spat them out
Destruction in its purest being
A waste of progress forms eternal drought
No liberation and no freeing
Perish the stores you cannot gain
All desire to inspire a worldly drain
You are the wrong side of the past
I will wreak havoc on you to last
Abaddon cast down
Back to its' fiery depths
Wield the disarmer
Heed my wrath

Forced by the tides
to reel I constant pain
Feeling hopeless
This is the end
A fluctuent mind swarming in the dark
Looking for a light that doesn’t exist
Struggling to find belonging
I can’t escape this loosing fight
Be the change that I wanna see ?
How do I measure up to those who came before me ?
You only care for what you can see
Trapped in a mirror of jealousy
BROKEN BONES
FROM GRAVES UNSEALED
I HOPE
YOU DIE UNSEEN

Tell me how does it feel when everything you do
gets you messed up and frail?
You try to hide the pain but it always ends up the same.
Pick your poison, build your fragile self.
Be always dependant - self-torture to an early grave.
You choose this poison.
Dilute your brain once again.
Repeat and repeat - your name will fade away.
Dilute your brain once again.
Repeat and repeat - your fucking end awaits.
I see the scared eyes, your mind in decay.
But who the fuck am I to judge you, right?
My friend, I face the same pressure as you.
Pick your poison, build your fragile self.
Be always dependant - self-torture to an early grave.
You chose this prison.
But I walk on a different path.
The one of a clear conscience and no compromise.
So pick your poison once again or start building the true self!
I will never surrender and take the easy way out.

A clean slate
Unbothered by outer authority
A fatal misstep
Leading to pain by a substance
A beast made of suffering
Growing inside you so strong
Soul-sucking darkness
Assuming control of your being
Spread the affliction
A state of constant vertigo
Corrupting influence
Advancing your mental decay
To know yourself no longer
Possessed by absurdity
The mind is incessantly rotting
Defaced by dependency
Spread the affliction
A state of constant vertigo
Irreversible harm
A loss of total self-discipline
Erosion of innocence
Just for a moment of rapture
Hedonistic nonsense
Plunging you into the depths of insanity
