1. LEPROSY
Bodies
deformed way beyond belief
Cast out from their concerned society
Flesh contorting day after day
Freak of the dark world is what the people say
Their
lives decay before their eyes
There is no hope for cure
Among their own kind they live
A life that's so obscure
First an arm and then a leg
Deterioration grows
Rotting while they breathe
-death comes slow
Leprosy
will take control and bring you to your death
No chance of a normal life to live just like the rest
Leprosy will spread with time,your body soon to change
Appearance becomes hidious a sight too much to take
Tuberculoid
the most severe
Decay of the nerves comes fast
Sense of feeling soon to be gone
Life will never last
No
hope for recovery after the nerves are eaten away
Damage is done you feel no more pain
Bones decay deterioration grows
Origin of this horrid disease nobody knows
Their
lives decay before their eyes
There is no hope for cure
Among their own kind they live
A life that's so obscure
First an arm and then a leg
Deterioration grows
Rotting while they breathe
-death comes slow
Leprosy
will take control and bring you to your death
No chance of a normal life to live just like the rest
Leprosy will spread with time,your body soon to change
Appearance becomes hidious a sight too much to take
2. BORN DEAD
Brought
to this world to wither away
Naive about the ways of life is what they say
Millions live millions die,more are yet to come
Living skeletons -where they come from
Born
dead into this world
To starve and rot in agony
Born dead into this world
It's their choice,why can't you see
Life
of misery,soon a corpse you be
As bones show through,nothing you can do
Relief does not exist
When you are born to die
Disease
spreads fast across their dying world
Many cemeteries they will have to build
As process goes on for many years to come
A human waste land created when they are done
Born
dead into this world
To starve and rot in agony
Born dead into this world
It's their choice,why can't you see
3. FORGOTTEN PAST
Deep
in your mind there is another side
A morbid truth one cannot hide
Unimaginable gore was your past time high
To hear people scream, to watch them die
Return
back to the burial side
Face your dreams upon this night
Severed limbs not far away
Spirit past you now obey
Images
of the forgotten past
Your first life revealed at last
Now you'll find to your surprise
All the corpses you left behind
A
place you feel you've been to before
Where life would turn right into gore
You dig deep down through the years of decay
The truth is revealed,you found your way
Return
back to the burial side
Face your dreams upon this night
Severed limbs not far away
Spirit past you now obey
Images
of the forgotten past
Your first life revealed at last
Now you'll find to your surprise
All the corpses you left behind
4. LEFT TO DIE
Put
your life into their hands
Die for someone else
Now you're in the real world
Where pain death are felt
The
first blood shed does not seem real
Reality is what you feel
Dropping to your knees you pray
God won't make this go away
You
will not return alive-
left to die
Suffering untill the end-
left to die
Time
stands still as you pass away
No more tomorrow this is your last day
On this (fucking) earth
Bodies
fall onto the ground
Blood flies through the air
Shedded victims lie in pain
Death is never fair
Legs
blown off, all hope is lost
A human life is what it cost
Others follow close behinnd
A real adventure they will find
You
will not return alive-
left to die
Suffering untill the end-
left to die
5. PULL THE PLUG
Memories
is all that's left behind
As I lay and wait to die
Little do they know
That I hear their choice of life
End
it know, it is the only way
Too cruel, that is what they say
Release me from this lonely world
There is no hope - why don't you
Pull
the plug
Let me pass away
Pull the plug
Don't wanna live this way
Once
I had full control of my life
I now behold a machine decides my fate
End it now it's all too late
What
has now been days, it seems like years
To stay like this is what I fear
Life ends so fast, so take your chance
And make it last
End
it know, it is the only way
Too cruel, that is what they say
Release me from this lonely world
There is no hope - why don't you
Pull
the plug
Let me pass away
Pull the plug
Don't wanna live this way
6. OPEN CASKET
Approach
the image filled with fear
As the image grows so clear
Future now takes full control
The one whose past you now behold
Touch - the flesh it is so cold
Turn away - you now have been told
Never to return, memories will last
In the future, you'll think about the past
Never to forget, what you have seen
People
come to pay respect
Taking pictures of the dead
That is what life comes to be
Once they lived, now they're deceased
Death
is oh so strange
The past no one can change
What you can't predict
Is how long you'll exist
Open casket - open casket
Life will never be the same
Death can can never be explained
It's their time to go beyond
Empty feeling when they're gone
Never
to return, memories will last
In the future, you'll think about the past
Never to forget, what you have seen
What can not be real you now believe
7. PRIMITIVE WAYS
Go
against the ways and experience pain
Leading a life which one might call insane
Bathe in blood of the one you killed
Slaughter to survive, your needs are fulfilled
Using
horrid waste
Some of them will taste
Removing deadly disease
With such primitive ease
Cannibals
practicing the art of buturing
Emotions don't exist, pain you can't resist
Primitive ways
Conducting
ceremonies to meet the ancient one
While having an outer body experience
Celebrate the kill of the day
Then walk among the guts of the fallen prey
Using
horrid waste
Some of them will taste
Removing deadly disease
With such primitive ease
Cannibals
practicing the art of buturing
Emotions don't exist, pain you can't resist
8. CHOKE ON IT
Freedom
is just a breath away
Will you live to see the day
As the heat intensifies
You start to choke, your inside fries
Seizure
now sets in
Torture will begin
Twisted bodies lie
Waiting now to die
Choke
on it - as your tongue goes down
Choke on it - death is all around
Screaming
fills your frenzied mind
No way out no more time
Examples made for those to see
Your freedom turned to misery
Word
is all around
Of what they have found
Lesson to be learned
You will not return
Choke
on it - as your tongue goes down
Choke on it - death is all around
