lyrics

Comes the flood
Comes the fire
Tearing earth and sky
Human terror
Without meaning
Before the tide of death
Thousand voices
Call on God
Looking for an answer
Desperation
Brings no refuge
From water or from flame

Sightless
The world is torn asunder
We cannot withstand
The breaking of the earth

Fists are raised
Statues fall
Beheading of the nation
Battle rage
Freedom cry
Blood runs ever deeper
A lord despised
A tyrant slain
The palace walls are shattered
Victory
Your sons lie dead
Liberation is a lie

Endless
Cycle of oppression
Violence replaces
One tyrant with another

Murder waits
In darkened streets
Violence unprovoked
Life is cheap
To take or lose
Chaotic desecration
Death becomes
The only language
Life's meaning is lost
No restraint
No limitations
No-one too young to die

Mindless
Premature unmaking
We do not know
The meaning of our deeds

Faithless
Soulless
Hopeless
Mankind is a dead end
We are lost for ever as
We tear our world apart
