Civilization And Its Discontents
Preservation of instincts antagonizing
Walls built by the demands of conformity
Primal urges the driving force within all
Out of this world we shall not fall
We are here once and for all
Civilization drowns natures call
Regression to a destructive state
Eternally trapped in paradox
As dawn breaks the tide start to shift
Distorts our visions of the past
Seeking power by false standards
Civilization and its discontents
Open your eyes to see what you’ve become
Civilization and its discontents
Remorse pulls you to the ground
Civilization and its discontents
Guilt destroys the meaning of your life
Civilization and its discontents

The Executioner
Here I stand summoned by the king
They call out his crimes the fat lady sings
Drop the axe the blade swings down
Raise your axe for the roaring crowd
I look into his eyes
Justice is found
Praying for forgiveness
Cannot save you now
Obligation of society the guilty must pay
Innocent bare witness on his reckoning day
Condemned for his sins the blade swings down
Dignity he keeps dies without a sound
I look into his eyes
Justice is found
Praying for forgiveness
Cannot save you now
I serve justice with a swing of my axe
I am the executioner some call me death
Beneath this mask
Cold steel eyes
Beneath this mask
Integrity lies
Drop the axe
Blade swings down
Drop the axe
Justice is found

Into The Darkness
Step in to the darkness, waiting in the shadows
I've been called upon, Fate has come for you
Cursing my masters’ name, you turn to run
There is no escape, no escape from my wrath
Begging, pleading, pathetic groveling.
Kicking, screaming, where is your dignity.
Denial, anger, Feeble bargaining.
Acceptance comes before the face of the dead
Running from the shadows, you can’t hide for long.
Darkness serves me well, death has come for you.
Cold breath down your neck, My hand on your shoulder.
No one to hear your cries, Now that you’re dead.
Begging, pleading, pathetic groveling.
Kicking, screaming, where is your dignity.
Denial, anger, Feeble bargaining.
Acceptance comes before the face of the dead
Life comes to an end, you will find me waiting.
In the shadows, the shadows of your existence.
