In the flames I see
The faces of a demon.
A ****** soul,
Terrorized and screaming.

Monster is freed,
It’s appearance is deceiving .
For in the flames
I see the faces of a demon.

As it escapes
Onto this mortal plane,
The hunt begins anew.
Who’s being hunted?
The demon or you?
What will you do?

Send the demon back
To hell from whence it came.
Who released it, who’s to blame?
A figure decked in black,
Laughing from his throne.

“You think you’ve won,
You think it’s gone,”
Laughs the figure
On its throne.

“The demon is one
Of your own creation.
Brought about by
Arrogance and delusion.”

“It has your scent,
It will return for you.
It will destroy your life,
And leave you all alone.”

In the flames I saw
The faces of a demon.
My own reflection,
Broken and defeated.
My own face became
The face of the demon.

You had a great life ahead of you
Knew exactly what you were gonna do
But the higher you rose, the further you fall
Now you realize you've lost it all.
'Cause when you stuck that needle in your arm
You got caught up in an evil demon's charm.
Now the drug's the master of your mind
Ruining all that it shall find

The drugs are rotting out your brain
Driving you insane
Addiction's locked you down in chains
So the demon takes the reins
Demon's Charm ruling you
Demon's Charm ruining you
Demon's Charm killing you
Demon's Charm rotting out your brain.

You cower an quake with endless fright
Never again will you see the light
The high has worn off, you feel the pain
Hurry it up, shoot it up again

You crave the fix,
You're feeling sick,
You need it quick,
Your shoulders shake and quiver
When you finally get your fix
The pleasure makes you shiver

The drugs are rotting out your brain
Driving you insane.
Addiction's locked you down in chains
So the demon takes the reins
Demon's Charm ruling you
Demon's Charm ruining you
Demon's Charm killing you
Demon's Charm rotting out your brain.

You say you're gonna quit
But there's a war inside your head
Should you cave and take a hit
Or something else instead
You know you need to get clean soon
Or else you'll soon be dead

Now in rehab, darkness is all you see.
The dark white walls surrounding you.
Only during sleep your mind is free.
The withdrawal is killing you,
Only comfort is how good it will be
When your tired mind is free.

The drugs are rotting out your brain 
Driving you insane
Addiction's locked you down in chains
So the demon takes the reins
Demon's Charm ruling you
Demon's Charm ruining you
Demon's Charm killing you
Demon's Charm rotting out your brain.

It was going good.
You'd kicked the habit
Then you relapsed
And your life collapsed   

Your psyche snapped
And now you're trapped
In an endless cycle .

Swimming in misery
Darkness imprisons you
Pain and loathing all you see
While praying to god on bended knee
To let the pain and misery end.

The drugs are rotting out your brain
Driving you insane
Addiction's locked you down in chains
So the demon takes the reins
Demon's Charm ruling you
Demon's Charm ruining you
Demon's Charm killing you
Demon's Charm rotting out your brain.

Your sanity is shattered.
You're broken and battered
Lost everything that mattered
Curl up and stare at the sky
Kiss your old life goodbye
Curl up and wait to die
The drugs killed and ruined your life
You now stand on the edge of a knife
While the demon runs through your veins

An Empire of Dust and Grime
Was built on the backs of broken souls.
In the kingdom of Rust and Slime,
A millennium of neglect take its toll.

Society lost to the sands of time,
Little of which is now left behind.
It was destroyed by waves of crime
Failure defined as a smoldering ruin.

Disintegrated!
Desecrated!
Destroyed without cause!

Incinerated!
Violated!
Damaged beyond repair!

An affair with power
That turned sour
Left behind the Empire of Dust.

Ashes of a race
Burnt and smoldering.
The fires of hell are churning.

All that remains,
Keeps on burning,
As the world just keeps on turning.

Disintegrated!
Desecrated!
Destroyed without cause!

Incinerated!
Violated!
Damaged beyond repair!

An affair with power
That turned sour
Left behind the Empire of Dust

All my love to long ago,
Where all dreams flow,
Where memories reign,
And there is no pain.
So all my love to long ago

As I drift in slumber
I mourn the old friends lost,
New friendships strained,
And old friends estranged.
So all my love to long ago

I miss it so,
That time so long ago,
Back in the good old' days.
I remain rooted in my old ways.
In my mind the lost will stay,
Until my final dying day.

When to sleep I do succumb
In dream I weep at what I've become
I sit drunk, deep with ***
A measly shadow of a nasty ***
Again I weep for what I've become
And I weep for long ago.

I drank my life away.
Now I've nowhere to stay.
Now I sit and think all day
That it wasn't worth it anyway.
Now my life is ruined
And I just want to die.

I wish for some release
From my personal hell.
Will this never cease?
So far I fell.
It is hard to tell
In which circle of hell
That I reside.

There is no life without love,
Which is why I pray to heaven above.
I feel that I'm going insane.
For now I am a stain,
Society's bane,
Only I can feel the strain
On my failing brain.

So now as the end is nigh
And I watch my life flash by,
It's time to say goodbye.
I give my love to long ago,
Where all dreams flow,
Where memories reign,
And there is no pain.
So all my love to long ago."

Rise up, present arms.
Raise your revolution
Against accomplice
Of collusion.

Megalomaniacal
Narcissist.
Mind addled,
Rife with delusion.

Empire of Hate
Of his creation,
Destroying the pillars
Of our nation.

The sheep are stumbling along,
Thinking they can do no wrong.
Weak trampled under feet of strong,
Behind bars is where they belong.

Corruption runs deep,
Greed runs deeper.
Money pads the pockets,
Men would sell their souls
For a little taste of power.

They don't care about us!
They just want ******* more.
The promise of power and cash,
Turns them into ******.

Empire of Hate
Of his creation,
Destroying the pillars
Of our nation.

The sheep are stumbling along,
Thinking they can do no wrong.
Weak trampled under feet of strong,
Behind bars is where they belong.

You stand there now, drenched w/ rain,
And all that you can feel is pain
As hatrestraight through your veins
Binding you with the devil's chains."

The one you loved
Lay dead upon the ground.
The culprit, family of a friend
Shows no remorse.

Your psyche cracks and shatters.

Then comes the Rage
Bred from Hatred
In its purest form,
It turned to self loathing.

Monstrosity.
Was once human
Till his soul was torn,
And body decomposing.

With nothing left to say,
Your broken cries
Carried on the wind.

Your love's blood spilt,
Now washed away
On the waterfall of tears.

They were gone.
Your dear beloved,
Snatched away.

And while you screamed
And while you cried
Asking why were you here still?

Voices screamed inside your head
Telling you to ****

And It's like a shock of lightning
Every time
You go against their will.

So you surrender.

You Destroy, ****, RIP THE **** APART!
Anger and hatred feed the flames.
Revenge, EAT THE BLACKENED HEART!
Seal the lock upon your evil chains.

The waterfall of tears
Became a flood
That turned into
A waterfall of blood.
