Strain of Insanity
04:06
|

I yearn for chaos, I spread destruction through
Vessels of the human kind
You look just perfect, and all I have to do
Is stoke the madness that's seizing your mind
All that you have wanted in your life
You will be denied
When you're broken, I'll be there to
Take advantage of the bitterness
Render you possessed
No compassion left inside you
Your worst impulses will push you past the line
And you'll just be another tool of mine
The only thing you'll see is others in agony
The only thing you'll feel's the strain of insanity
Molded for chaos, a beast in human skin
With disdain for everyone
Stand at attention, and let the games begin
There's so much damage that needs to be done
Spread the virus, propagate my lies
Stain the sanitized
Then prepare to spread disorder
Listen to the voices in your head
Leave them all for dead
Petrify the world with horror
Another martyr deluded by my cause
Shoving more corpses down my gaping jaws
The only thing you'll see is others in agony
The only thing you'll feel's the strain of insanity
The only certainty's that my reign will always be
The only thing you'll feel's the strain of insanity
Reason forever gone unspoken
The circle forever gone unbroken

Through Dirt and Debris
04:25
|

The fortitude, the attitude is too much to diffuse
Built to be slayed, the offer made is one I can't refuse
There's zero fear, all that I hear is "go disrupt the ruse"
Step to the plate and seal your fate, you're guaranteed to lose
Through dirt and debris
I charge endlessly
Undaunted and free
From conformity
What fools have to say
Just gets thrown away
You won't see the day
No, I live my way
Desensitized, not victimized, the grit deletes the pain
I bear the load and take the road that's carved for the insane
The drones who try to suck me dry won't get to twist my brain
No compromise, won't hear your cries, headfirst against the grain

Schadenfreude
03:42
|
|||
Staring deep into your own reflection
So convinced you're a cut above the rest
Displaying your bravado and your one trite achievement
The only problem is no one's impressed
Wallowing in macho insecurity
Praying no one swipes your plastic crown
Spent a day on top of the mountain
And a lifetime crashing right back down
You've made the bed you lay in, why keep up the facade?
We're all aware that you're a narcissistic fraud
Your reasons for persisting are just so recondite
But thanks anyway for the schadenfreude
Now get out of my sight
Desperate for any validation
That you're exactly what you claim to be
A legend and an alpha in your own head
And a laughingstock in reality
It was only ever your choice
It was only ever your choice
It was only ever your choice
Yet all you did was fuck yourself to the sound of your own voice

Red Noise
04:18
|

They hid themselves from you, observing each and every move
Then took you when you weren't aware
Awakening in restraint to shocking, unfamiliar sights
Struck with confusion and despair
We won't bring harm to you, your will's the only thing we'll take
Prepare for your mind to break
The pressure makes you convulse
As you gain a new impulse
All sense of self vanishing in the red noise
Rendered completely mindless
In servitude you find bliss
Another perfect puppet that the red noise formed
Lost in an endless trance, obedience is all you know
You'll never be yourself again
Feeling euphoria when executing their demands
An impulse rooted deep within
You've learned submission well, but our work is still far from done
You won't be the only one

The Monstrous Urge
03:56
|
|||
It's never gonna go away
It's got me pacing in circles
It keeps me up at night
It's got me charging towards it
So close yet out of sight
I will not wait any longer
No patience left to spare
The life I lead will not be passive
Through every barrier I'll rip and tear
It's got my mind in a vice grip
It whispers in my ear
So many before you have fallen
But you will persevere
No time for mediocrity
No time to second guess
The path I walk is ironclad
And there's no point in settling for less
The monstrous urge keeps on beckoning
The world outside needs its reckoning
Destroy and rebuild, the void must be filled
Born to play a different game
The future's all mine to claim
All that is plastic and puerile
I'll only disavow
Our time to reign isn't coming
It's starting here and now
Won't see the end of this mania
Until the end of my days
The path is clear, the plan is simple
Stampede forward with all guns ablaze
Destroy and rebuild
The void must be filled
