I won't be led astray and
Won't let these thoughts deter (me)
Never lost my demons
I only rose above (them)
Now watch these walls fall
Descending brick by brick
An incinerated design
All that is left is soot and ash
Burn down everything
Burn it all
Burn down everything
Burn it all down
Burn them down
Before they bring you down
Save yourselves
Kill them all
Kill them all
I won't be led astray and
Won't let these thoughts destroy (me)
Never lost my demons
I only rose above (them)
Embrace the downfall
Descending wholly
Soot
Ash
Burn them all down
Burn them to the ground
Burn them all down
Burn them to the ground

This demon is anear
It has conjured feelings of disgust
It makes you weep in fear
I hope for something so much more for us
This demon is up here
It harbors feelings of hopelessness
It makes you weep in fear
I've always hoped for something better than this
Price of progress
Why can't you just live
Like the rest of us
Reaching out for help
Nobody actually cares enough
Pay the true high cost
Like the rest of us
When will this shit end
Kill the rest of us, fuck
Wage war all the time
Abandon everything
Despondent, demoralized, defiled
When you live your life on their time
Lives lost all the time
Turn your backs on everyone
Depressing, disheartened piece of shit
When you live your life on their time
We are the ultimate sacrifice
Price of progress

Grit & Spine

Pushing onward, while maintaining
Pushing onward, while maintaining
Pride and glory
Driving forward, moving along (with)
Driving forward, moving along (with)
Grit and spine
I turned the light back on
Came at darkness head on
With grit and spine
No more wasting time
I have come to the understanding of
What peace means
And what it is like to finally have
Fucking purpose
These dreams are mine to follow
These dreams were always mine to follow
I turned the light back on
Came at darkness head on
With grit and spine
No more wasting time
I turned the light back on
Came at darkness head on
Grit and spine
Grit and spine
Give me purpose
I need solace
This is how shit gets done
There's more to life than fun
This is how dreams are met
Reaching for goals I've set
I turned the light back on
With grit and spine

This place is not how I had imagined it
Social pariah, the pieces just don't fit
I'm gnashing my teeth vehemently
Dreaming of failure eternally
My thoughts read blank, I cannot focus
My joints are burning, everything is aching
How can I survive sleepwalking through life
I'm gnashing my teeth vehemently
While I am dreaming of failing eternally
Nothing's funny, everything ails me
I've lost interest in all of my interests
I crawled along the wilting rose
Bled across the blade alone
We are the shame we will never know
We’re just an empty fucking grave
We’re just an empty fucking grave
This is not good enough and it never will be
A constant living state of despondency
Not good enough and it never will be
Constant living state of despondency
The despair is sincere, I am weeping in fear

Guidance of Violence

Fight the non-believers
End them where they stand
Strike them at the necks,
Slowly remove heads
Endless bloodshed waged
Over goddamn holy land
Do as he commands
Or face the judgement
Bow before your king
Bend the knee, kiss the ring
Epitome of savagery
Rebuked
Estranged
Rejected
Defeated
Abide or die
Born astride the grave
Abide or die
Never to be saved
Blessed hypocrites
Made this world of shit
Kill the infidel
Watch them burn in hell
Blessed hypocrites
False gods are worshipped
Kill the infidel
Soak the Earth with their blood
Guidance of violence
Guidance of violence
Guidance of violence
Guidance of violence
This is guidance of violence
Guidance of violence
Guidance of violence
Guidance of violence
