1.Lost
My eyes were jaded, so close to the center I could not see
But now they are fixed and glaring at the sacrifice to be made
Now that I'm aware of the cycles I pray that I can deal
Now that I have shown you these cycles I pray that you can feel
In and out of the stray
Taking the bait
Feeling compelled to obey, betray
The isle of await
Running scared from their thought
Thinking I can summon some ancient truth before wrong
seeking my nature, our nature with fear of being caught
Or have we been like this all along
The dawn of birth gives way to men
Age brings dimness to sight as it must
Death seals the eyelids on darkness once again
Augmentation of the dust
2.Raze The Stray
Falling out, crawling out, seeking out
Emerge now and see the
Returning to raze my shrine
Whole seeds no soul
Blind, shall we lay tides shallow
Wise, I stand my ground
I will not stray
Wounding the ego, get up lick your wounds
Mistrust to survive, avoid being burned,
Alive, biting other people with words
Searching for oblivion, small scares etch permanence
Tearing your whole life to shreds
All that was alive and spontaneoous
Fading under the crests of imbalance
Gnaw your teeth into fangs, only to have them lash out at
yourself
For what they forever have done to you
Numbness escapes, willing to face the pain
Your rebirth demands a part of you dead
The longing in your heart for transcendence
Something greater that that which we've become
3.Burning Flesh In Year Of Pig
The most dramatic was one day in Saigon when a buddhist parade
started of..
All the yellow-robed priests marching along and then, they
stepped forward
A very frail old man in his seventies who turned out to be this
priest Quang Duc
He assumed the lotus posture, another priest stepped forward and
poured gasoline on him..
And went suddendly towered in flams
The priests and the nuns in the audience moaned and prostrated
themselves toward this burning figure..
and he sat there unflinchingly, and the smell of gasoline and
the burning flesh in the air
Attendance..
people thought they saw the face of Buddha at the top of him..
that night.

Away - firestarter - crow (slide on)

6.Enemy Of The Sun
Torn of this land's disgrace
Too hungry to contain a future
The sun bathes my wounds with a veil of rage
It's rays dyed with the blood of our disrespect
Suffering for the wisdom long forgotten
The sound of bloodletting echoes on the wind
The suicide of drought for a faith destroyed
We starve with pride and glass in our throats
Harvest their return
Those who drive away the sun
The masks lay fallen, shattered in the dust
Tearing our flesh amongst wolves
See how they run as we laugh
In lunar horizons there is understanding
Harvest their return
Carry my soul to the sun.
7.The Time Of The Beasts
On lasts the kill in the cold - the crush
Succumbs humanity - the blind will lead
The walk
(Coal shoveled into my skull - the time)
(Of beasts - a time to raise)
The mind plants seeds of a time defined
Within my loathsome eyes - the is black
Of rage - red
