We live in churning waves of hate

Inscribed in walls that we create

Inside the laws we put in place

There lies the means that went astray

The spoils of life are far and few

The tide is coming back to you

No chains restrain the coursing rage

The bitter seeds of yesterday

Absence of light

Total demise

Our fear is breeding war machines

We're living far beyond our means

Wars fought in the name religion

A fucking joke the world we live in

Contempt is growing far and wide

Like blades that cut from side to side

Hate flows like a river running red

Can't win the war inside your head

We're trapped inside these living lies

No one cares and no one tries

Our dreams are cast in broken glass

The only hope is fading fast

Absence of light

Total demise

The world will suffer pestilence

All at the price of ignorance

Reflections coming from the past

We're never to escape perhaps

Darkness growing like a mold

Overwhelming stranglehold

The future doesn't look too bright

Forever night

Absence of light

Total demise
