1.	Destiny 04:11	lyrics	buy track
Destiny, responsibility of our doomed determination Duality of showing empathy and our Self-preservation On the ruins of humanity Reliving what seemed past, long gone All will suffer seeking clarity Too bad we hold on… to fear that blinds us all RUINATED NATION God is Great and Great is the Devil EVIL CONFRONTATION He came to burn mankind These golden cages, a broken fantasy We’re waking from this sheltering dream Deafening facts, shocking reality Did you trade your soul? Not knowing right from wrong RUINATED NATION God is Great and Great is the Devil EVIL CONFRONTATION He came to burn mankind Sulfur breathing angels A demonic flavor Ruinates our nation Death to us all, death to us all
2.	Cycloptic 04:41	lyrics	buy track
Look around you, the foolishness powered by the Cyclops, one eyed, dimensionless They can’t look inside us, what’s in our soul But they deny this, disputing what they saw Their shallowness of mind Is growing stronger now Determined as they are Rigidity of heart With one eye open, we gaze through the mist What’s torn inside of us, following the mass? Misunderstanding polarities But we can’t see this through the crushing waves Our shallowness of mind Is growing stronger now Determined as we are Rigidity of heart
3.	Craving for Misery 04:47	lyrics	buy track
I called your name, you enlightened my way Darkness left, without seeing me Well, I don’t remember not to remember her My flesh/my blood/my faith/my life She will be for eternity… a vision of hope and peace My Angel, Now U enter life An adventure, right from the start Well, I will remember every day you share with me My soul/my mind/my tears/my smiles He will be the strength that lives in me... the one to make me see It used to have a hold on me, craving for misery Seeking sadness all the time, road to oblivion My mind had blindfolded me, craving for misery Now that’s done, the winds of time blew the sand right out of my eyes Ease my soul now - it used to burn inside of me Ease my soul now - it used to burn inside of me The pages turned, the future is here ‘cause you're my reason to live Reflections of myself, they keep me young and sane Both becoming someone, day by day Soon you'll be grown and I'll be old and grey My skin/my face/my flesh/my bones In the end they'll be the last that’s left of me… that's how it has to be It used to have a hold on me, craving for misery Seeking sadness all the time, road to oblivion My mind had blindfolded me, craving for misery Now that’s done, the winds of time blew the sand right out of my eyes Time will tell the storyline of you. I’ll do my best, the best that I can do. I can’t remember the shades of life were grey. Hard to remember the day they did not yet breath.
4.	As I Walk 04:54	lyrics	buy track
His eyes they speak to them: “This pent-up anger, bloody red” “With a dreadful fire inside I won’t hear you bastards crying” “When all the madness stays, feelings of guilt restrained, I say, down to hell you’ll all burn with me” “Lost my tears, lost my cries, sadness is gone” “Lost my heart, lost my soul, feelings are gone” “Locked up in a world of violence - where god is dead” “Locked up in a world of silence – where I have drowned” Daan Swinnen (Bloodrocuted): “his deed won’t be forgotten, so cruel and unashamed… so many victims… times have changed” “I’ll blast them down now, innocence has left the stage” “My mind’s so gone , won’t even hear you fucking crying” “And when you lie down, I’ll shoot your head, don’t try to fool me, I’ll make sure that you are dead” “Lost my tears, lost my cries, sadness is gone” “Lost my heart, lost my soul, feelings are gone” “Locked up in a world of violence - where god is dead” “Locked up in a world of silence – where I have drowned” “I feel so locked out society now – play in my show” “I feel so locked out, swear there’s no shame left – the world will know”
5.	The Hurricane of Life 05:05	lyrics	buy track
The hurricane of life is accelerating all the time One cannot break the hourglass… no Within a hundred years from now No one will even know our names What matters is the present The future isn’t ours, we won’t survive So here I stand in the rain without joy This is how it has to be It’s best to go with the flow Cherishing the moments Still going fast, like falling In my life I have seen nothing is forever But you won’t find a way, there’s no way out So here I stand in the rain without joy I see the world through a stare, bitter stare SCREAMING IN THE SILENCE… “you will not find your answer now, ‘now’ is already gone” So here I stand in the rain without joy I see the world through a stare, bitter stare
