We Don’t Trust You
Intruding into our circle of archaic brood
With a list of demands
Imposing your unwanted presence
Holding a knife in your hand
Preaching doctrine of ancient scriptures
Illusion of light
Hidden agenda has been made
You’ve been blackballed for life
We don’t trust you
Betrayer stands alone still approaching
Asking what’s our price?
Fabricating a web of lies
You won’t fool us twice
Respect revoked time for you to leave
We got the message through?
Gone but not forgotten simply
We do not trust you
We don’t trust you
Music Daniel Mills

Riot Squadron
Dissident America
Expanding for awhile
Reverting as they unify
Walk the extra mile
Denying the apology
The horde becomes enraged
City officials dispatching
Lapdogs of the state
The riot squad is marching hard
With barking cadence 1234
Chucking rocks with Molotovs
Are landing on their shields
Teargas and flash bombs
Attempt to clear the street
Crowd is growing numbers
Screaming no retreat
Escalating violence
Turns to full chaos
Everything is burning
Everything is lost
Music Jeff Salgado & Toby Swope

Schizophrene

Schizophrene
Day goes black a piercing sunlight flash
Uncontrolled eyelids
Mirror warps as my neck contorts
Coffee burns my wrists
Multiple voices in my head
Tell me how dumb I am
Overlapping yelling laughing
So many they’re hard to understand
No one’s around to hear my idiot scream
I’m the one I’m the schizophrene
Have no care for the outside world
The spinning faces grin
No escape from my insane fate
Stare at my evil twin
Wishing they’d stop shouting at me
Learn my daily ordeal
Constant insulting and degrading
Perception hallucinates or is it real?
No one’s around to hear my idiot scream
I’m the one I’m the schizophrene
Music Daniel Mills

Agents Of Surveillance

|

Agents of Surveillance
Brainwashed unanimity
Lynching objective
Who oppose the regime
Now reconditioned
We suggest you fall in line
We are the agents of surveillance
Privacy is the past
Volunteer your rights
Security oversight
Encourage thought crime
Guilty till proven otherwise
We are the agents of surveillance
We’re indoctrinated
Processes outdated
Social media reigns
Seizing all of our brains
We deceive
Disbelieve
Misperceive
Freedom lost
Albatross
Endless cost
Music Daniel Mills

Labyrinth

Labyrinth
All is lost in the Labyrinth
When the magic box is opening
The surgeons from the afterlife
Will come for me
Scream for your life
Scream from your death
Scream for your life
Scream from your death
No matter which way you’ll
Be running out of breath
Lost in a mental maze
And hope to keep your head
Blindly starring down a corridor
See the walls breathing heavily
Smell the stench of rotting meat
Feeling nauseous and it’s sickening
Burning spasms up my back and neck
Something pounding inside my chest
Oh God I think it’s coming out of me!
I’m not asleep
Scream for your life
Scream from your death
Scream for your life
Scream from your death
No matter which way you’ll
Be running out of breath
Hooks puncture flesh
Now your skin is ripped to shreds
Music Daniel Mills

Fortune Dealer
On a crusade to save innocence
Discover a place themed blasphemous
Find the Stygian witches
Seeking untold riches
Clutching magic eye
Foresee how you die
Who is visiting and who invited you?
Questioning a prophecy that’s about to come true
An impossible solution for what you came for
Knowledge demands payment or there’s nothing more
You yourself seem like a succulent sacrifice
Learn about your future for a certain price
Step closer so we can identify
Let the three of us gaze with the magic eye
An impossible solution for what you came for
Knowledge demands payment or there’s nothing more
You yourself seem like a succulent sacrifice
Learn about your future for a certain price
Now your body roasts they prepare to feast
Three witches satisfied to say the least
Find the Stygian witches
Seeking untold riches
Clutching the magic eye
Foresee how you die
Music Viktor Hansen
Lyrics Jeff Salgado
Guest Vocals David Sanchez

Pandora’s Crate
Fell from the sky with a blinding light
Unknown from where this came
Receive this gift as we forbid
You unlock this wooden crate
All through time it’s held inside
Astonishing mysteries
Don’t let it tempt or circumvent
Your curiosity
Screams in your dream
Feel the sting
Hear the shriek and discovery
Another twisted tale
Unleash the fiends
Inquisitive judgment offers a task
To uncover this cryptic fate
Key stuck in turned once and clicked
A horrible sight awaits
Bursting out with a shriek of the vile
Spreading wings on a crimson stream
As they pass leaving bloodstained path
To the world your God’s unseen
Screams in your dream
Feel the sting
Hear the shriek and discovery
Another twisted tale
Unleash the fiends
Shroud of black purge an unseen attack
On the innocence of all mankind
Cloaked over the demon wings
More destruction than you’ll ever find
Some things are better left alone
Things that might not serve you well
Or let me introduce a new choice
A chance to unleash full blown hell
Music Toby Swope
Lyrics Jeff Salgado

Personality Agenda
Seek a safe space from criticism
To express another personal view
Oversimplification just joins the crowd
Pick an ideology to identify
Created by the wealthy immune
Extramural concepts will be shot down
Induce your validation from a counterfeit belief
We win they lose
Perspective turns into what they despise
Opinions from a rhetoric lie
Media demands you follow left or right
Logical philosophy disappears
Berated by irrelevant facts
Individualism nowhere in sight
Induce your validation from a counterfeit belief
They won we lost
Subjugating critical thought
The agenda wears a victory mask
Progress blocked right dead in its tracks
Trading information is more productive
Than an self serving perception
Let’s try something new because you can’t go back
Music Jeff Salgado & Toby Swope

Invisible Prison

Invisible Prison
Disassociate from all that
You perceive as fact
Gripping power lines
Of information counteracts
Natural course of circumstance
Betrays your every thought
Redirect the neural synapse
Rewind what we’re taught
Fighting intellect, tradition on repeat
Sealing all the doors will never be complete
Breaking old patters with scorn of regret
Ideology beset
Raping our minds with a trap
It’s down the hatch
Echo the lie till it sounds like a fact
And make it infract
Activate the deepest realm
From your unconscious mind
Cultivate or obstinate
A new subject you’ll find
Escape the invisible prison
That was man made
Take in new information
Forget the accolades
Explore new worlds we’ve never known
And forging mental health
But first we free our shackled soul
Start thinking for yourselves
Music Viktor Hansen

Serial Killer

Serial Killer
I've tasted the thrill of a kill
The thrill of my victims I'm crushing
Destroying their will
Demented a figure of speech
My mind is lost eternally out of my reach
Richard in your glass case
Stand to be judged, their deaths
Written there all over your face
Ted a twelve year old
Your body should rot out in public
For women you've killed
Run for your life I'm the serial killer
I've come to bury you today
No family, no funeral, no rosaries for
Slain on this hillside – My Silent Grave!
That's where you lay!
Buried dead bodies behind
Their last words are still etched
Clearly into his mind
Driven possessed by a will
A will that takes over
And drives him out for the kill
Submit submit to me now
He screams out in anger
Bloody thirsty, as you cower down
It's time he raises the blade
You cry out to God
For your innocent life to be saved
Run for your life I'm the serial killer
I've come to bury you today
No family, no funeral, no rosaries for
Slain on this hillside – My Silent Grave!
That's where you lay!
Music Phil Demmel

Highbinder
On my way to greet a mold of clay
Got to make the schedule now or betray
Generate illusion making it real
Lunatic reasoning is part of the deal
Trap is set and stick around for a while
Victim snagged now the charm to beguile
Credulous pawn searching anything wrong
Seek if my emotions are genuine or gone
I’m freaking out
Create a distraction and I’m on my way
Hunting another till the end of the day
Sickening farce leaving me unfulfilled
Calling someone else on the spinning wheel
Impulsive acts are digging me in a hole
Deny the situation’s out of control
Nothing but carnage left in my wake
Doesn’t really matter cause its all a mistake that I made
I don’t care what you think
In this game called life
Everyone’s out for themselves, highbinder
Why don’t you take more time to figure out
Who you choose to trust
Build some common sense just to get away from us
Music Jeff Salgado

Spiral Orthodox
Guilty, you render yourself wrong for all you fought
Penance, atonement for your crimes of costless thought
My grandiloquence
Beyond all consequence
Decree dependency
Enforce ascendancy
Stare at the blinding light
Don’t know what’s wrong or right
Pushing the afterlife
Demon is ritualistically planting the dark seed
Savior imposing the everlasting need
Cleric, the only way you’ll achieve prosperity
Cleansing your stained soul and now the reckoning
My grandiloquence
Beyond all consequence
Decree dependency
Enforce ascendancy
Stare at the blinding light
Don’t know what’s wrong or right
Pushing the afterlife
Holding the lie, goodbye
Demon is ritualistically planting the dark seed
Savior imposing the everlasting need
Cleric, the only way you’ll achieve prosperity
Cleansing your stained soul and now the reckoning
Music Daniel Mills
