1.	Algorithm Of Hate 02:48	lyrics	buy track
Slaughter has been given a new lifespan Retribution as a norm for social engineering Justifying what common sense would repulse Explanations diverge but shared stances prevail What used to be taken for granted… Has nurtured conditions for rupture What used to be taken for granted… Has nurtured conditions for rupture Slaughter has been given a new lifespan Retribution as a norm for social engineering Patterns of acquiescence sliced to pieces Value systems perceived as rubbish Primordialist allegiances traded for nothing Power and hierarchy torched to the ground What used to be taken for granted… Has nurtured conditions for rupture What used to be taken for granted… Has nurtured conditions for rupture Despicable reactions mirroring the split Sightless fury satisfying no one A change in the rules defeating nonsense… Algorithms of lethal hatred undone
2.	Ripped 02:37	lyrics	buy track
I reckon it may have brought me some relief on a number of occasions I can’t say I didn’t manage to jump on a number of genuine opportunities I just feel I should sometimes be more confident about what will happen to me I’m often confused about not knowing if things evolve in the right direction It is no longer that I can’t keep things that hurt for myself I realize I’m partly responsible for making them real What really hurts is that I constantly keep one step ahead for myself The illusion of being in charge of my immediate future… …drives me to attempt at exerting total control over my acts and thoughts Am I simply too sensitive not to worry? Or am I the one who make matters hurt? Constantly pointing at what “could” go wrong? Do I tend to overstate the significance of some issues that happen to me? The illusion of being in charge of my immediate future… …drives me to attempt at exerting total control over my acts and thoughts
3.	Diffusing Discord 03:11	lyrics	buy track
The thuggish tone he used Has magnified the rift Has turned wisdom into an awkward The hunt has first been rather quiet But evolved however quickly to match the desire and ended in a beautiful final show. A blow to any rationale and commonsense The thuggish tone he used Has magnified the rift Has transcended boundaries Has trespassed the red lines Since I did not expect what many had speculated I defiantly played the game in its entirety The trap was chiefly designed for dickheads And it took me a second to confirm what I was A systemic failure annihilating logic Feeding on fertile grounds and diffusing discord Has tainted ideas, bodies and rhetoric Hypocrisy illuminated and time passes by A systemic failure annihilating logic Feeding on fertile grounds and diffusing discord Has tainted ideas, bodies and rhetoric Hypocrisy illuminated and time passes by
4.	Scapegoat 02:45	lyrics	buy track
Wealthy-filthy-healthy suckers Softening thinking, misleading others Frustrated orgies, ridiculous speeches Endangered species, suffocating fast Suffocating fast… Distanciation in progress Barriers are erected Sharpening judgments Diabolizing dissent Sustaining the pressure Diffusing the trauma Illusion of power Subtleness dispelling Abuse has prevailed, setting up retribution Stupidity is the norm, a tit for tat strategy Sustaining the pressure, diffusing trauma Beleaguered stances, consolidating resolve Abuse has prevailed Stupidity is the norm Sustaining the pressure Beleaguered stances Ill-fated insistence, speeding up the process Flavors of decline, stirring up contention A surge of collective fury, paving the way for it Pandora’s Box open, scenarios of rupture unleashed
5.	Compulsory Silence 03:01	lyrics	buy track
I thought I could get along with it Half the way between recovery and submission I ended up mired in never-ending torment Since the rules had been set without threshold I thought I could get along with it Half the way between recovery and submission I ended up mired in never-ending torment Since the rules had been set without threshold There was nothing left worth it they said Hollow pledges of assholes licking asses Screams of wrath, sirens of disarray Mutilating what remains of a zero sum strategy Bankrupt stances attributing chaos… To the one in charge of thousands of destinies Mirrors are often our worst enemies… Reflecting what only the blind can see Blind can see I woke up only to apprehend How blurred the image has been I had relied on a scheme Of self containment Perceived as a shield against what the light would be I decided there was no light but the one I want to be Perceived as a shield against what the light would be I decided there was no light but the one I want to be
6.	Keep Going 02:39	lyrics	buy track
I’ve watched your pointless scene And laughed at every single argument Verbal diarrhea chosen for fury Pushing emotions to the fore A blowback for any structured thinking Adjusting the path to your downfall Spoiled attempts at recovering Retribution down the road Spoiling good sense / sprawling dread For truth is a point of view Gracious offers, tinted in red Buying cheap and selling fast Dignity traded for allegiance standing tall / grumbling softly Speechifying hollow/ instigating theft Thoughts condemned, ideals abused Spoiling good sense / sprawling dread For truth is a point of view Gracious offers, tinted in red Buying cheap and selling fast
7.	Sick 02:47	lyrics	buy track
Acid thoughts pervading shame, sharpening disdain and passion Unrelenting disarray, unbearably stretching patience Target for anger and nonsense, endangering satisfaction Gossips of mayhem spreading fast, battle plans emulation Smiling, laughing, speeching, moaning Failing, falling, fading, sucking, Proudly firing the first shot, adding fuel to the fire Proudly firing the first shot, adding fuel to the fire Worthless Call for unity, dismissed By boiling fervor Deliberate forecast of intended damage Recalling dreams, for endless deliverance Sickness revealed, infectious beliefs Lying, paying, buying, hiding Killing, slaughtering, maiming, slaying Let’s grant murder its full name, a murky future Let’s grant murder its full name, a murky future Tackling nightmares, using dreams Renting one’s brain, tarnished reason Scattering bunches, of freaky pamphlets Programmed failure, hopeless prayers
8.	Manifest Sentence 03:14	lyrics	buy track
Thoroughly assessed Contagious suffering taken for granted Biased political irreverence Manifest sentence, dictating reprisal Thoroughly assessed Contagious suffering taken for granted Biased political irreverence Manifest sentence, dictating reprisal Irrelevant fuckin’ prophecies Turning wisdom into insanity Seditious speeches dispersal Manifest sentence, dictating reprisal Referential truth, striving for power Hegemony attempts, squeezed by plurality Dominion’s delight, resistance spreded Heightened pressure, spiraling out of control Futile dogma praised for nothing Gathering suckers, satisfying hatred Observers of a designed decay Cynical portrayal of a moldering order Dissonant battlefield chorus Remorseless yelling of a projected failure Rhetorical misuse sharpening disillusion Boosting prospects of alternative renewal Manifest sentence, dictating reprisal Manifest sentence, dictating reprisal
