This Is... 00:24
This is what it's all about This is why we play This is why we make your day This is it...
2.
Picture a masked face Painted black with shining teeth Unmask the image Realize - you stare into a mirror! Denude - the masked face Free yourself from the illusion Refine the reflection Re-establish the fundamentals Wash away the filth Purify - your head is clogged with doubt! Denude - the masked face Free yourself from the illusion The masked face!
3.
Digging In 00:18
Never seem to realize... ...that this can't continue! Working hard, digging in... ...digging your own grave!
4.
Time To Act! 01:21
Tell me why I just can't fucking understand Tell me why this doesn't seem to have an end Work all day for a cause I've never understood Hate this shit - I hate this fucking shit! So do you think you make a difference? Well do you? Good! It's time to act!
5.
Disdain and contempt - walk hand in hand Disdain and contempt - my only friends Disdain and contempt - my life for you Disdain and contempt - you're killing me
6.
I See Lies 01:10
I see the headlines of today I see the words but I can't comprehend I see the news as a shit covered wall I see lies only lies Lies! I see lies! I see your mouth form some words I see it move but I can't fucking hear it I see your mouth as a shit filled hole I see lies only lies Lies! I see lies!
7.
Inhale/exhale You breathe to live You breathe - you die Inhale/exhale
8.
Release me from this anger Release me from this pain Give me time to think This is too hard to explain When all the facts are given I sense a different thought Seen from a different angle Too naked to distort Now is the time to bring out the truth No more lies, time for you to give up Now is the time to bring out the truth End this bullshit, we won't have it this way
9.
Are you one of those that doesn't ever care? Do you think that you stand above the rest? Are you afraid of getting dirt under you fingernails? Never looking back, the future is yours... You think you stand above the rest But nothing will save you, there is no escape What you destroy will affect the world You're as deep in the shit as everyone else Who will come to save you when the end is near? Your money won't buy you air to breath Maybe it's time to stop and think? Realize - it's our responsibility... You think you stand above the rest But nothing will save you, there is no escape What you destroy will affect the world You're as deep in the shit as everyone else There's no escape...
10.
The rest is over, the recess is done, it's time to act You've been indulgent for far too long and it's time to act You must get out of this You can't go on like this Ebullient and enthusiastic you take the first step Exit the hibernation - enter the world of possibilities You must get out of this You can't go on like this
11.
Disappointed 01:09
How many times have you told me that you'll get things done? And how many times have I seen you with empty hands? Why is it always so fucking hard to keep a promise? How should I ever trust you when... ...you disappoint me! You disappoint me! Again and again! How many times have I stood alone waiting for you? And how many times have I walked away deserted? I don't need your explanations they mean nothing to me I will never trust you, 'cause... ...you disappoint me! You disappoint me! Again and again!
12.
Lägg Om! 00:18
Varför lägga all sin energi på ingenting? Lägg om kursen du hinner än! Varför ödsla tid och energi på idioti? Lägg om kursen, du hinner än! Lägg om kursen, jag tror du hinner än!
13.
Stare me in my eyes and tell me that you don't care Try to convince me that you will not try to change You are nothing - you're obsolete You are really nothing - you're disposable All the work and no play will surely make you numb But endless wandering isn't the solution You are nothing - you're obsolete You are really nothing - you're disposable All the work and no play will surely make you numb You are - nothing! Endless wandering isn't the solution You are - nothing!
14.
Tested 01:20
Are you the brave one? Would you dare to defy their cause? Can you stand up for yourself? Back up your thoughts with more than just empty words? 'Cause I am here to test you And you're about to fail Are you convinced of the fact? That you're absolutely right? Do you actually believe? Believe that what you say is really true? 'Cause I am here to test you And you're about to fail 'Cause I think you're full of shit, I think you're full of shit!
15.
Shapeshifter 01:09
Go! On your way to popularity, you will bend the truth Every second word a falsity, to be cool, to be right Liar! - You're shifting shape to be a friend! But you will always be a liar! You're shifting shape to be a friend! But you're a fucking failure! You're a shapeshifter and you're a lie I spit in your face, wipe off your smile - show the world who you are You two-faced bastard, don't fucking deny - that you're a shapeshifter
16.
Take them - for what they are Treat them - with love and respect Their skin so desirable, so much money to make Life will turn to profit, and you don't fucking care Feed them, kill them, skin them Their lives ain't worth shit! I just can't take it - no more! Won't let you do this to them! I just can't stand this - no more! Won't let you do it - anymore!
17.
Is this revenge, this modern, mortal plague? Has science failed or is progress none? No words spoken but I still hear "No urgency - this concerns only..." The weak - the outcasts The weak - the worthless Nameless white-robes exploring the unknown Manipulating with human lives And through this wickedness, I ask myself Who pulls the string, who doesn't care? Murderers - in disguise Murders - well disguised Last call for faith or progress Last call for life Nowhere to run or hide ...When science fails
18.
Closing In 01:00
Don't want to tell you lies, don't want to be false Still I have to make you sad and break down all your doors Stagnated - ignorant Future is closing in Your lives as you know them are coming to an end It's time for different values, it's time for you to change Stagnated - ignorant Future is closing in We've lived with all you hatred for far too many years Now we will break down all your barriers and teach you some respect
19.
You've climbed all stairs and made a career, not thinking of what's behind you All these years that you've been living - would you do them again? Punctured eyes, deceiving lies Trapped in the world that you made The world you meet is fooled by your smile, but inside you're not shining Everyday another glimpse of the fear that there's no higher level The fear you fear is drawing near It is the world that you made
20.
Can you believe it? The system has failed! Can you believe it? It failed once again! People are starving, the crime rates increasing The all fell through the "security net" You better believe it! The whole system failed!
21.
Our perfect society, gives us food and shelter Gives us food and shelter, takes care of the weak Lying - for what cause? Raping - for what cause? Killing - for what cause? There's no reason! Our perfect society, builds mass destructive arms Educates the weak in the art of death Lying - for what cause? Raping - for what cause? Killing - for what cause? There's no reason!
22.
Fullmatad 00:54
Fullmatad med lögner Lurad och förnedrad Kan du gissa vad jag tänker på? Nergången, destruktiv Utan hopp, utan liv Kan du gissa vad jag tänker på? Fullmatad med lögner Utan hopp, utan liv Kan du gissa vad jag tänker på?
23.
Screwed 00:41
Work hard every day, hope to get your share While society gives you a number, a place in the end of the longest line Why do you compete? I don't understand Why do you compete? You know how this will end? "But of course you make a difference, feel free to make your choice Do whatever pleases you, but dare not to raise your voice!"
24.
End all that is useless, you must be all that has won Reach out for the fire in your eyes, glowing deep inside For I have seen all that will come Darkness, tasteless future, shades so gray - clouding my mind So what? It's not as beautiful as we give it credit for Might as well give in for the desire to end your life... See us as we're drowning, never offer us your hand Only leave us helpless, crawling, while you are shaping the end For I have seen all that will come Darkness, tasteless future, shades so gray - clouding my mind So what? It's not as beautiful as we give it credit for Might as well give in for the desire to end your life... I fell so stupid never took you for what you are There's no time for regret - shaping the end
25.
They pull the trigger, they aim to kill Exam - condemn - destroy! They do it all for the excitement They'll come when you least expect it - The new firing-squad! He pulled his trigger, he aimed to his head Examined - condemned - destroyed! He did it all for salvation They came when he least expected it - The new firing-squad!
26.
Everything is getting better, everything is going smoother But everything's the same! Tell me why is doesn't change, tell me why it stays the same Why does is stay the same? The more things change, the more they stay the same.
27.
Disconcerting the downsides, emphasizing on the positive Characterizes my philosophy My philosophy! Shaping a guideline, free to follow Sharing the thoughts of my philosophy My philosophy!
28.
They stuff my mouth with a cloth, blindfolds my eyes But tightened ropes can't hold me back nor violence or lies Gagged and bound - but I'm not silent Gagged and bound - my mind still speaks Beaten beyond recognition, revenge boils in my veins No more silence since the weak will inherit the lies Gagged and bound - but I'm not silent Gagged and bound - my mind still speaks
29.
Burn your past on a stake Burn you values and views Burn and let the furnace breath Burn, just fucking burn The breathing furnace The breathing furnace is you Burn and breath... Breath the new dawn air Breath the wind of change Breath and evolve Breath, just fucking breath The breathing furnace The breathing furnace is you Breath and burn...
30.
Information is free - you can't deny that Information is free - you can't keep it back You'll always be someone, there's no place to hide Nowhere's a haven - you're a page in the book Information is free - I'll know what you've done Information is free - I'll know where you are You'll always be someone, there's no place to hide Nowhere's a haven - you're a page in the book
31.
Seize the day - is what to do Grab the moment - make what's best Don't be still - activate your mind Discharge the flame - turn dark to light Swallow the fire, embody the heat Seize the fire - the burning flame Ignite your will - let emotions spark Don't be silent - speak your mind Leave your lair - end the dark Swallow the fire, embody the heat Swallow the fire, embody the heat ...burning inside...
32.
I don't know the hardcore book of rules, but I have yet succeeded Instead of complaining on my life, guide me and show me the way Show me the way! Show me! I don't need your advice, Mr Punk! I'll do without them Punk is to think for yourself, not to think for others
33.
Grey 01:04
Grey is the feeling, grey is my view of society Grey is the tension, grey is the face - face of disgrace Grey is the building, grey is the room in which I live Grey is my life, grey is the colour of hopelessness All is grey - pictures, shapes All is grey - views and smells All is grey - nights and days All is grey - you and me Grey is the present, grey is the future - future unborn Grey is the reason, grey is why I stay up late Grey is the moment, grey is every hour in my life Grey is the silence, grey is how I feel today
34.
Worldcraft 02:34
Worldcraft - complex structures, a new society Built from scratch in three dimensions Blocks on blocks, a new era taking form Give it a shape, this nameless beast Is this the answer to our prayers? The kingdom - tear it down again! Cheated, defeated, misled Our kingdom - tear it down again! Creatures - a new breed, hostility, rebirth Mass invasion of the armed and disillusioned Kill on command, protect and serve The perfect society Is this the answer to our prayers? The kingdom - tear it down again! Cheated, defeated, misled Our kingdom - tear it down again!
35.
Start to think, start to live Make your best, make an effort
36.
Det som inte blotta ögat ser det finns inte där Allt som inte rör på sig står still Det finns inget som vi inte ser, vi ser allt som är Du kan inte gömma dig från oss Stenhård disciplin Bäst att inte göra bort sig, kan sluta illa då. Här gäller stenhård disciplin Alla vet vad som förväntas av var och en Ställ dig rakt I ledet nu, blicka endast fram Kom ihåg att allt du ser, ser och hör är sant Gör som du blir tillsagt, kom ihåg du nu tillhör oss Glöm allt det du hade, glöm det liv du haft Du är bevakad...
37.
Blinded 00:39
Blinded by sunlight, blinded by stardust Blinded by society and you still don't see Blinded by yourself... And through the eyes of the weak I see why you always fail
38.
Can De Lach 03:14
Desperation - in these silences something may rise A vampire traveling from host to host with one breath Regulating - in the house of the wolf and the scorpion Ancient statues transforming passion into death Deep down in the heart of the unformed Speak the language of the dead Mi him en tow! Tak ah lah! Succumb in the heart of the unformed Desperation - in it's silences something has risen A Prayboy leading the ones who are left in this town Forward! To the ini they must go Confronted and feel the pain because God is cruel Deep down in the heart of the unformed Speak the language of the dead Mi him en tow! Tak ah lah! Succumb in the heart of the unformed Death is the heart of the unformed

about

Sweden's unsung sensations play crushing grindcore with blistering blastbeats, ravenously crusty riffs, and just a hint of that Swedish sound. A lightning speed blitzkrieg of sonic violence!
