Face the teacher
Metal preacher
Now you know
Keep your eyes
On hidden spies
It's far too slow
The mass-effect
Unruly swept
Through frenzied times
Communion kept
From meeting it
Empty behind
It woke up again
It woke up again,
Oh no
It woke up again
It woke up again,
Oh no
Needing more
A bleeding sore
Never enough
Stimulation
Degradation
Common trough
Pregnant with
A mental filth
It's what they want
Feel it rise
From deep inside
It sleeps no more
It woke up again
It woke up again,
Oh no
It woke up again
It woke up again,
Oh no
It woke up again
It woke up again,
Oh no

The Mass-ters

Tapping into weakness
Feeding on the heartless
Echoes of a fall
Soul-less breeding call
Programmed for decline
I and me and mine
Seeding mad desire
Setting worlds on fire
Tapping into weakness
Feeding on the heartless
Echoes of a fall
Soul-less breeding call
Mindless slavery
Countless vacant sheep
Degraded normalcy
Dragging life to sleep
Take it away
Mountain of shame
Take it away
Mountain of shame

Call of the Wild
08:14
|

Through the mist
Silver light
Silent trees entice
Into the night
Glowing eyes
Heavy breath
Nothing stirs
Echoing footsteps
Come with me
Sweetly smell
Ghostly hands emerging
From the veil
Thorny path
Epitaph
Sticking needles
A quiet wrath
Scattered bones
No one knows
No one knows, no one
Nobody knows
Glimmering
In the dark
Be complacent
And fall apart
Not a sight
Not a sound
But feeling is
All around
Drift into
Murky pools
Let it go
Death is for the fools
In the gloom
See her face
Weaving loom
A sordid holy place
And it calls
Through its teeth
A hunger that never sleeps
Hear it call
Through its teeth
A hunger that never sleeps

Pressure building
Tension guilding
O, I feel it spreading
Corrosive and healing
A beacon of darkness
To bring you down
From your dreaming
And when you are ready
I'll break you down
Only if you want me to
Open and waiting
You see me now
I know you do
And when you are ready
I'll break you down
O, you want me to
Pressure building
Tension guilding
O, I feel it spreading
Corrosive and healing
Oppressive and heavy
I'll hold you down
When you fly away
Come to the fountain
I'll inundate
And quench your thirsting
I'm coming to get you
To set you right
I'm on my way
A beacon of darkness
To bring you down
From your dreaming
To bring you down
To break you down
To bring you down
I'll break you down
A beacon of darkness
To bring you down
And when you are ready
I'll break you down
A beacon of darkness
To bring you down
And when you are ready
I'll break you down
I'll break you down
I'll break you down

Quetzalcoatl
11:15
|

They came from the skies
The men with serpent eyes
They brought creation
Civilization
Knowledge of the stars
Who we were, who we are
Science of the seasons
The art of reason
They left a prophecy
Before they took to the sea
When the soil burns
Then they would return
Guardians of the light
Hold the torch through the night
Royal bloodlines
They left behind
Falling star
Streaming down
A ball of flame
Ignites the ground
Signs are shown
Eclipsing sun
With plume and cross
They have come
The gods of old
Have come for gold
Not to save
But to enslave
They bring death
Corrupted breath
They spread plague
Annihilate
The gods of old
Have come for gold
Not to save
But to enslave
They bring death
Corrupted breath
They spread plague
Annihilate
Empires crumble
Jungle swallows
Monuments
To Quetzalcoatl
Sacrifices
All in vain
The bloody gods
Have staked their claim
From the dark
There will rise
One who has
Redeemer's eyes
They will teach
Another life
One beyond
The gods of the skies

The Sacred Flame
12:50
|

Lost and chosen
Eyes wide open
What was written
Lies un-hidden
Intuition
Goes unbidden
Breaking through dams
God is I am
I fight the sickness all around me
But it's a desperate day
I turn within for healing
I walk the darkened way
Through the maze
Of contemplation
I don't know
That there's a way out
Smothering intoxication
Every turn
A beast with no mouth
Found and broken
Eyelid tokens
The words of men
Will be forgotten
I find the pyre standing
And light the lonely flame
A wave of fear resounding
O, what a joyous day!
Feel it spread
Like an infection
Breaking down
the imperfections
Cascading annihilation
All that's left
Is right relation

Nothing now remains
But to adore thee in song
O heart of hearts about whom
Is the circle and the tongue
Continuous one of heaven!
O circle and the star!
The king has come
To claim his throne,
His scepter,
And his crown
Announce it to the many
The end of fear and shame
The Holy One is at the root
And burns The Sacred Flame
