A Priori
Song (1) 5:04
Disillusion creeps up, what is all the begging for? Well, it’s not a wonder I’m about to leave. Oh it’s unbelievable, I put up with all the games. I just sit and wonder, How long I’ve got to play before the end.
Hoping my next move will get me there. I'm thinking about, thinking about the end.
Disappointed last night, only got myself to blame. This corroded atrium, is holding on for more. Disapprove or bless me, I don’t care it’s all the same. I’ll just sit here placid, ignore the pain I’m waiting for the end.

DTGP (Also known as Diluting The Gene Pool)
Song (2) 3:53
So stoned when they thought that they'd rather be dead. Temples shot, with a gun that I think you owned. Self-esteem, suicide, watch and learn, watch and hide. It repeats, here today, on your knees now I hear you pray.
I decided to leave you there!
You thank all, of the swine on whose good side you tread. They scold now, so what do you think you know? So pristine, so alive, while you fuck, while you lie. Underneath, us today, they've decided to leave you there.
Where's all your guidance now?
Devils, smile as they wait for their turn. Thankful, doubtful we'll feel it burn. Have you seen, what we've tried, while you shoved us aside? Your beliefs end today, I've decided to leave you there. Get the fuck out of my way!
I've decided to leave you there! Run away!

Deva
Song (3) 3:51
Silence, don’t it make you wanna cry? Violence, don’t it make you wanna hide? Could or should not, or would it reach if it not for you? Basking in glory? Or tangling your story?
Deva, I want you to cry! Flood the deserts while you, savor all you want. It will all be gone in time.
Silence, don’t it make you feel so bright? Violence, don’t it make you wanna fight? Could or should not, or would it reach if it not for you? Basking in glory? Or tangling your story?
Deva, I want you to crawl, right before you die! So savor all you want, it will all be gone in time!
Gonna take it higher, gonna make it tighter, gonna make it higher!
She don’t wanna change anything I’ve said. She don’t wanna die yet, but I’ll make her.....pay!

Strap On
Song (4) 2:31
It’s called a strap on, you put it on if you’re too small. Do the deed, watch her moan and make a mess. Do it once, do it twice, do it the whole fucking night. Leave it there and then she’ll never call again.
Now truth is like I said, and I know were we can go.
Heaven help me someone somewhere let me slip it in.
Did it once, did it twice, did it the whole fucking night. Should of left that thing at home…she’ll never call again!
Fuck you in the fucking eye, Fuck you in the fucking eye...socket!

Saved By You
Song (7) 6:09
Tried to receive what was given on that early morning. Tried to deceive all the prophets who gave me a warning. Several weeks pass and now pure rage enlightens me. I’m dying but tell you the truth I’m beginning to like it.
Raised to the sky a reply from a favorite of torment. Heaven agrees as I descend head first into an open grave! To be saved by you would be slow suicide. Won’t be forced to be saved by you.
Starting to grieve for the shadow that runs from the brightness. Seven degrees from the haven I seek I’m awoken. Lay me down, I began it, now is it me? Startled to find out what happened to me.
Broken and weak from the outbreak of legions of masters. Shoving and shrieking as God turns His back on the bastard slaves! To be saved by you would be slow suicide. Won’t be forced to be saved by you.
You're waking the dead...
Far too long to be told. Sayeth the Lord, could be a long time. Don’t expect a rest!

Nothing But Sorrow
Song (8) 5:01
Thoughts projected in my mind, you pollute these dreams of mine. If you’re with me rest assured, in this world there’s nothing pure. Siphoning from rotting veins, all is lost and nothing gained.
Searching my soul for what can no longer be, the pain, the sorrow, the love you see in me. I’m looking through that black hole, and every face I see, has nothing but sorrow, for what they see in me.
Blackened water running there, beckons slowly for a friend. As I wait for the surprise, I can feel myself subside. Cannot wait for what’s in store, as I kill myself some more.
For this futile world I will not die. Give it a whirl; you’re bound to see me again.
And this can no longer be! The pain, the sorrow, the love you see in me! I’m looking through that black hole, and every face I see, has nothing but sorrow, for what they see in me...see in me! Oh wont you save, save grace...

Buried Alive
Song (9) 4:30
In a mirrored cage, I spend my days. Alive and buried down in the earth. No illusions come, I can’t see the sun. I’m alive and buried.
Under frozen ground, I’m wasting away.
I try to ease this pain. Arise, dear pride, and be beaten back from where you came. Try to understand, that I’ve had my chances. Now I’m alive and buried.
Under frozen ground, sacred truths lied. Under frozen ground waiting to die!
