lyrics
Streets of hunger, darkness awake
Welcome to the city of skeleton apes
Shrapnel stars, chaos reigns
Breathing in lead universally deranged
Trapped in the battlefield no where to run
With the sound of screams and the echo of guns
Brink of destruction, filth beyond description
Death a routine, misery the tradition
Standing at the gate, the twins are alive
Silhouted terror, the demon inside
Monolithic smoke from the mountain of the rotten
Burning in the sky, the ash of the forgotten
Shackled, led to the end of the line
Black is the water in the kingdom of slime
Now witness the horror throughout the planet
Gigadeath flows from the modern commandments
Pity the condemned diseased descendants
Mandatory waste, indebted independence
Living in the city where the sun is always silenced
Cameras all around, survivals found through violence
We take what we're given, and do as we're told
Mass suicide for invisible gold
Boarded in a cattle car, "flies in a jar
Packed so thick we don't need any bars"
CHildren cry, elders stare
Shivering inside everybody is scared
Look up above the heads of the frail
The ceiling scarred by fingernails
Bound by the crowd can't stand or lie
"Amplified screams before you die"
Cruel, numb, remorseless, frantic
Discord and vengeance blindly commanded
Living in the city where the sun is always silenced
Cameras all around, survivals found through violence
Desolate grief, the subhuman fate
In the endless abyss, mega-slum cityscape
