Invasion 04:48
Battlefront, as you hit the ground. Ready to take lives in the name of your nation. Promises of glory, but you were never told who for. Dreams that your life is worth more. Shots - Fired - Dying. Mothers - Fathers - Crying. In defence of your interest, Ranks in row and set in formation. Blood to be spilled, Commence Invasion. Bodies falling all around, The real cost of the war path bleeds out before you. The spoils of victory, false promises Greedy claims, tragedy in statistic. Shots - Fired - Dying. Mothers - Fathers - Crying. In defence of your interest, Ranks in row and set in formation. Blood to be spilled, Commence Invasion. Abhorrent action passed off as patriotism, We never learn. In defence of your interest, Ranks in row and set in formation. Blood to be spilled, Commence Invasion. I pledge allegiance to the mad And the united state of insanity. Lock and load and over you go, Cast aside humanity. Commence Invasion. Commence Invasion. Commence Invasion. Commence Invasion.

Battlefield 05:38
All bets are off, You've hit the hard line. Better keep your head down Or you'll meet your divine. Cold blooded, Unforgiving, Unrelenting, It's us or them. Absolve me of guilt For the blood that I spill. The loss of your life and mine, Leaders damming millions and feel clean. Fighting fire with fire to put out all the flames. Thousands lost, and forgotten, is this not the definition of the insane? History doomed to repeat itself, and the body count still rising. Ground zero, new burial ground. Graves dug by hellfire, This is war. Here on the battlefield it's time. Make your peace and I'll make mine. Cold blooded, Unforgiving, Unrelenting, It's us or them. Battlefield is the stage For your final tragedy. Ask the fallen about their honor And listen to the eternal silence. Fighting fire with fire to put out all the flames. Thousands lost, and forgotten, is this not the definition of the insane? History doomed to repeat itself, and the body count still rising. Ground zero, New burial ground. Graves dug by hellfire, This is war. Here on the battlefield it’s time. Make your peace and I'll make mine. Vets with debts and no way out, Their fight’s not done. The country they defended, Wants them no more. Wants them no more. Sinister forces, with sinister tasks. Favours bought with bloodied cash. We pray for gods to take them away. Ours is the only right path. Ground zero, new burial ground. Graves dug by hellfire, This is war. Here on the battlefield it’s time. Make your peace and I'll make mine.

Dark Army 03:22
Eat, sleep, deceit, repeat. Played by bureaucracy, a system made up to deceive, a self serving evil plague. To give impression we are free, We're given shrinking liberty, Oh, how ever so kind. And we're told to be pleased, do our bit for the trees. Whilst they take bribes from corporations, Sending us on a one way path to extinction. Dark Army coming fast, Freedom too free for it to last. We have to march for the future of humanity. Or there may be no one left to save. There may be no tomorrow. Eat, sleep, deceit, repeat. Round and round we go in a fight for power, Blood still a currency. Worst crimes committed are not with a gun, But with a sinister smile. Make it so nothings free, Told of false scarcity. Kept afraid and angry to oppose one another, Whilst they amass power to keep us in place. Dark Army coming fast, Freedom too free for it to last. We have to march for the future of humanity. Or there may be no one left to save, There may be no tomorrow. You say it won't hurt me, In your bubble you'll be. You're a player in this game you like it or not, We all have to fight if we don't want to lose. Don't shy away from your chance to change. Show the corrupt whose in control, Strength in numbers, we can win. Dark Army coming fast, Freedom too free for it to last. We have to march for the future of humanity Or there may be no one left to save, There may be no tomorrow. Nothing left for any of us.

Mad Elephant 04:50
Awake once again, the dreams like day. Haunted by the shadows of a bleak memory. Followed orders for glory, and paid with the min Wish I could rewind. Lost in the swell escape not an option, The weight of my sins come to pass. Nowhere to turn, burn or be burned, Lesser evil seen. Line up the sights and pull down the hammer. Crimson stains the night. Another life lost, and what of your own? Nightmares never fade away, away. A haunting shadow coats my life, Temptation by the bottle or the knife. Weeks pass like days as I live it again, Is what keeps me here enough? Lost in the swell escape not an option, The weight of my sins come to pass. Nowhere to turn, burn or be burned, Lesser evil seen. Line up the sights and pull down the hammer. Crimson stains the night. Another life lost, and what of your own? Nightmares never fade away, away. Bind up your sin, leave disgust within. Lose a piece of yourself every day. Try to stop the world from driving you insane. I can't go on like this. I can't escape the fate. My punishments due, For all that I take. It’s almost time, To atone for my crimes. The peace that I seek. Is this right? Is this right? Line up the sights and pull down the hammer Crimson stains the night Another life lost, and what of your own? Nightmares never fade away, away.

Lost Souls 05:10
A truly new invention, Like nothing you have seen. Born out of lust for blood, And self inflicted misery. It's digging through, Our heads. It sneaks up from behind, If you're unaware. Creating illusions, For the self proclaimed sane. You will never find the will to fight. Upheaval of distinction, Like never seen before. Born out of greed for toys Created to be shared. Gluttonous freaks, And mannequins. Wandering streets. Are you one of them? Creating illusions, For the self proclaimed sane. You will never find will to fight. Lost souls witter away. Lost soul forgotten again. The guide of the lost, Thy ruler of the night. Will bathe you in a void, Until you learn to find Light. Lost Souls. Lost Souls. Lost Souls. Lost Souls. As your thousand petaled crown Withers away Locked in a golden cage, Built by your own hands. Lost. Creating illusions, For the self proclaimed sane. You will never find will to fight. Fight.

Nemesis 02:51
I've seen the beasts that kill for pleasure. With the innocent held in their claws, A wicked and malevolent destroyer. That conjures up conflicts and war, Creating a vicious cycle. That's determined to follow without fail. From the start of it's venomous bite, Until the end of it's twisting tail. A nemesis on the rise. There will be chaos with no order, A chaos to control. A martial force to sweep the streets, An unnerving patrol. A nemesis on the rise, Born to turn the tides. And if you live under their rule, You've swallowed all their lies. I've seen the deeds done that are in the dark, And the wickedness lurking in high places. And the leaders with which you align Whilst they're all hiding their true faces A force that moves through darkness While turning us from the light
