Tried to find my way back home But I can’t see the path in my memory What can I do? This is a new beginning This is a new beginning Tried to find my way back home But I can’t see the path in my memory What can I do? This is a new beginning This is a new beginning I see these shadows running behind me I’ve lost control of my body Feeling empty My body encased with metal With chains that lock me down Lock me down I tried to escape But there’s only blood We’re mobilised by systems I tried to escape But there’s only blood We’re mobilised by systems The end of man has come and no one can escape this judgement Machines will take control of this planet to repair the damage The time has come The cleansing has begun Sit back and enjoy the view This is what we get What we brought upon ourselves When the screaming stops and the smoke has cleared They all will see that the message is clear We are the disease We are the disease Broken down Broken down I tried to escape But there’s only blood We’re mobilised by systems I tried to escape But theres only blood We’re mobilised by systems Bodies locked down with shackles Debris fall over with flesh and blood My heart is sunk and broken Deep down to the very bottom This is a disease This is a disease

Can you disappear I'm sick of all this pain You gave to me I'm tired of always suffering Scream these feelings I will no longer feel contempt I will not run away To the distant darkness Scream these feelings I will no longer feel contempt I will not run away To the distant darkness I wont let myself be a slave I will set myself free from this pain I wont let myself be a slave To the pain they caused in me Scream these feelings I will no longer feel contempt Nor try to run away To the distant darkness I will no longer feel contempt Nor try to run away To the distant darkness The weight on my shoulders No longer burden my mind Can you disappear I'm sick of all this pain You gave to me I'm tired of always suffering Scream these feelings I will not run away again (Again) Scream these feelings I will to the distant darkness I wont let myself be a slave (Be a slave) To the pain that they caused in me (Caused in me) I wont let myself be a slave (Be a slave) To the pain that they caused in me

The Sun will darken The Moon shall not shine Constellations collapse from within The Earth will move and the heavens shake Mankind will end This is the price we'll pay Mankind will end This is the price we'll pay This is the price we'll pay Why does my heart beat so fast? I feel these tears from my eyes Feast your eyes on the flames of this apocalypse All your corruption will be cleansed with pain and suffering Pain and suffering Pain and suffering Feast your eyes on the flames of this apocalypse All your corruption will be cleansed with pain and suffering This is the end of time This is the end of time This plague was prophesied Let the flames wash away the sins of humanity This plague was prophesied Let the flames wash away the sins of humanity Mankind will end This is the price we'll pay Mankind will end This is the price we'll pay Because it’s the end of time The house is on fire No one will come to save us And if you listen closely Just for one minute Nothing will remain This plague was prophesied Let the flames wash away the sins of humanity This plague was prophesied Let the flames wash away the sins of humanity

Can I ask for calm and peace? These people make no sense Leave me the fuck alone Leave me the fuck alone Wars and battles I always ask for escape Struggling with human’s jape All this madness must be ceased Wake up, wake up this world has seen enough No one deserves more loss No more violence, no more blood Wake up, wake up, clear up, it’s time, evolve Fights and battles make no sense End this war and make amends Save yourself No more blood Life is not a toss No more loss Dear oh lord Stop this from happening Dear oh lord Can’t take this anymore Dear oh lord All I try to win over is calm and fucking peace Wake up and realise this madness must be ceased Just make this battlefield pause Oh lord just make it stop Life is not a toss All this madness must be ceased Wake up, wake up this world has seen enough No one deserves more loss No more violence, no more blood Wake up, wake up, clear up, it’s time, evolve Fights and battles make no sense End this war and make amends Can I ask for calm and peace? All this madness must be ceased Can I ask for calm and peace? These people make no sense Leave me the fuck alone

Empty body, empty soul It’s on speaker I have no control The siren’s calling me to my cell Whispering songs in the deep pits of hell It’s so cold and fucking dark Zombies wander, I can hear them bark Where is my humanity It can’t be heard over insanity Evil grips my human heart Breaking through the darkness On the way to ruin Destroying my world Beautiful crime, ugly truth Who the hell can survive from This can’t be true, humans cry From their hopeless soul Is this my fault? Are humans this foul? Is this my fault? Are humans this foul? Empty body, empty soul It’s on speaker I have no control The siren’s calling me to my cell Whispering songs in the deep pits of hell It’s so cold and fucking dark Zombies wander, I can hear them bark Where is my humanity It can’t be heard over insanity Is this my fault? Are humans this foul? Is this my fault? Are humans this foul? Evil is taking my human soul Evil is taking my human soul Evil is taking my human soul Evil is taking my human soul
