Here are some of our lyrics, im trying to find all of them which will eventually happend
Mirror of false reflections
Preordained lives,
of thinly masked slavery
dictated dreams
composed of fake imagery
of physical perfection
and commercial sexuality
brutally forcing minds and bodies
into submission
the market demands
conformity and obedience
to live in this
kingdom of man
tear down the facade
tear the down the facade
break the mirror of false reflections
break the pattern of this
self-fulfilling prophecy
to be part of life you have to betray yourself
take the lie
and turn it into your own truth
[ This is about being boxed up and forced into living a certain way, the major influence being how
people look at themselves through the eyes of mainstream media.
The way people are portrayed in a perfect manner - how this changes the way you look at yourself and relate to the people around you.]
* Thijs
VI XII
A taste of iron before the lights go out
Abuse of power, corruption reigns throughout
This is a war which we must now wage
Tear up the sidewalks, tonight the city 'll burn
For those gone too young
to even learn to hate
Our voices become bottles and gasoline
to set alight the guilty slumber of the buying classes
Clouds of teargas and burning barricades
Give birth to new understandings of power
The possibility of new ways of relating
'Democracy' sends out her war dogs to play
Normality disrupted is a dangerous precedent
Consciousness is born on the streets
With each good hit,
one more step
and with a bottle and lighter in hand
Summon a gasoline demon to purge us of this emptiness
[There are times and places when corruption and abuse of power become so extreme, so shamelessly
conspicuous, that those who witness it are forced in to situations that make them face reality in
a totally different light. This sudden upheaval of normal life forces people to reevaluate their
understanding of how the system really functions and what their own place and potential for action,
within it all, is.]

I fail
I fail, I fail, I fail
I've failed again, I've failed again.
War is never won or lost
The struggle still continues
It will always burn strong.
When you've embraced it.
You will be fearless
When you've come to terms
with your own defeat
You are the unstoppable
I fail I fail
within my failure
lays the strength
that will bring
empires to their knees
their lies the power
to change to world
within my failure
lays the strength
that will bring
empires to their knees
when the winds of change are upon
when the fruit of hate comes to bare
you will have the weapon
the weapon of failure in your hand
I fail, I fail
*Thijs
Beneath the waves
beneath the waves another live lingers
beneath the waves another live lingers
beneath the waves another live lingers
the current is stronger
live is darker
you're quicker the hunted
than the hunter
beneath the waves
another live lingers
ready to be eaten
to swallow another live
beneath the waves
in the dark
in the belly of death
beneath the waves
in the dark
in the belly of death
beneath the waves
the current is stronger
live is darker
you're quicker the hunted
than the hunter
beneath the waves
another live lingers
ready to be eaten
to swallow another live
beneath the waves
in the dark
in the belly of death
beneath the waves
in the dark
in the belly of death
beneath the waves
there's always light
even when you cant see
there's always light
beneath the waves
*Thijs
What if you’re right?
Don't tell me it's not worth the risk, we have to cross the bridge in time
Don't tell me it's not worth a chance, to see what's on the other side
you scared, reluctant, you ask yourself
what if I'm wrong, what if I'm wrong?
I tell you what you gonna find
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
The ground will crumble beneath you feet
as you watch the same sunset everyday
walk backwards in this space and time
and never see the obvious
Ignorance is bliss, your oblivious to what you miss
but I tell you what you're gonna miss
Life
Life
Life
So cross with me this bridge called risk
You're life is on the other side.
And it might be good, it might be bad
But what do you have when you say where you are?
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Take a leap
It's worth the risk
What if you're wrong
What if you're right
