the long road is almost over purgatory awaits the coffin you call santuary begins to shred apart from the tropics to the wasteland old age has finally caught up with you can´t dodge destiny anymore a walking corpse in denial a befitting end without a peer in sight the ghosts of all your errors are closing in you will not talk yourself out of this one brace for impact
2.
only the severed and detached can relate finding the code that once was robbed forget the blood that once we shared widen the distance that kept us apart deep in subcouncious your guilt eats away the grand finale includes the judgement you evade you dare not call her by her own real name nights of cold sweats in your own private hell the scorn you created has taken flight the scorn you created will hound you nonstop scorn scorn scorn *that's what remains scars scars scars *that's what you left *the devil wants me to find you *and i'll be right there beside you *there'll be no place (there) to hide two *we're gonna have to see this through the scorn you created has taken flight the scorn you created will hound you nonstop scorn scorn scorn *that's what remains scars scars scars *that's what you left

this city / it chews /you up and spits / the remains of your carcass wealth is the only objective increasing profits while at the expense of the consumer without a shred of dignity we lie, we con, we cheat, we hurt walk on the backs of your ancestors spit on the face of your benefactors suffer silently, keep your mouth shut this land will forever remain championless amputate your guilt (show me some spunk kid) hang up your liability (what's the price?) today you master verocity tomorrow we gather the remains of your bones the filth of the land /can never be put back tread through the harsh terrain of decay become a shell of your former self without any conscience of ethnicity
