- Force of Neglect
You'll never forget his face, we'll always remember his name
Swearing to serve and protect, the shield becomes a badge of shame
Your blood is running, don't you like the taste
Dominant control, there won't be a trace
Society accepts this force of neglect
The marginalized and weak, those without a voice to speak
You killed the very person that you swore to protect
You serve nobody but yourself, make them feel the pain that he felt
- Victory In Defeat
In spite of what they say, I'm still not right. Out of body out of mind and out of everyone’s sight. But even through the struggle I still hold tight, leaving the pieces behind makes it easier to feel alive. I need to live, I need to love, not just survive. Force myself, not finished yet, facing fears I thought I’d dreamt. Life don't wait for payment sent and what I've earned hasn't made a dent. This isn't me, this isn't who I was supposed to be - a dead weight hanging on your words. The cast of my mold is cracked and for once in my life it feels good to accept that second place is a finish that we get. The weight of it all
is crushing me. I'm trying to reach this level of peace where I feel nothing for anyone or anything, maybe then I can finally sleep. Fighting for survival and trying to kill the pain, searching for the sun in a world that always rains. Fighting for survival and trying to kill the pain, if it's peace I need so be it but I'll always curse your name.
- Zeitgeist
Living right under the crumbling empire
Death holds the world in chains, dragged in the dirt behind us.
Burning for change, earning nothing, learning to hate
Modern life is an itch that can’t be scratched
Suffer oppression from the politics of fear
The generation of hopelessness is here
In a race to the worst, we are finishing first
This existence is bleak and all our futures are cursed.
