XERATH LYRICS

1. Unite To Defy

A man stands before a peasant nation
Self-proclaimed, in corruption instilled
Through a lineage
He demands war, against all who don't follow.
And confused his people stand and say
Unite to defy

Still he presides over any chance of free thought
Human need seems to create these demigods
Still confused his people stand and say
Unite to defy

Beyond the veil, the first world, blind pursuit only to repeat
Figureheads always call for arms
A fools war

2. God Of The Frontlines

There is inner insanity to be called upon
God of the frontlines
It has been known, the inner voice of no reason
Suicidal is its own will

It blackened your mind
Now it yearns to kill your demon to find
When a man is quick to enter battle
He is quick to forget why he did
Perverse in lust for genocide
Supposed me in God's own image
Soldiers with minds full of country and pride

Think you would stand there and say?
But to me, you all go into war just the same
Seeing life's profound ways to the glory
The last story of

Die like flies chasing the flame
Die like men forgetful of pain
It has blackened your mind
Die like they see themselves defiled
Die like fools forgotten in time
No

3. Reform Part III

The greater power of the industrial world
Will look at people of barren lands
In condemnation of their injustice
They will seek to reform

Bureaucratic talk lays the foundation
The people are spun for their blessings
No one wise to the crooked smiles
Hearts and minds, fuel for the fire

You're needed to support an ultimatum
for fear protects war doctrine
Your paranoia

Throw around words of pursuasion
Extremist, radical, stewards of death
Stems from children of irrational belief
Ideology breeding fucking parasitical

You're needed to support an ultimatum
for fear protects war doctrine
Your paranoia enables the forward path
Your precious civil liberty

4. The Call To Arms

Summoned to the call of arms
You've prayed for it to come
For so long it's been your will
To turn your hand to the trigger

Words got to mean so little
Appeasement to silence the anger
Now beyond any tolerance for peace
It is our will to destroy the lesser people

Like us, you breath
Under fire
We're almost the same
No more ways
To know your place
To see beyond your days

Bullets can always break the silence
Where before lies indifference and pain
Silence
Spirit

It is our will to diminish your spirits and gods

5. Machine Insurgency

Day one the first of many dead
As your homes are levelled to the floor
Demons or infidels?
No prayers to go serve to save you from the slaughter
A nation bought to the front lines

Enter the war machine and erase the peasant race
By the words of dictatorship
When masses don't question
They become the sacrificial bodies
To the will of false gods

Engineered to erase your world
And destroy your entire existence as you know it
Demons or infidels? 7
Or just distant enemies?

Homeless and force underground
Under the metal storm falling from the sky
Families caught in the crossfire
Not a martyrs death
Simply one of the dead

Metal shreds flesh with ease dies washed up lifeless
Bone washed up lifeless
Born shattered burnt and torn
Vacant eyes from this shell
How did it end like this
Just the same?

One day of quiet
Amongst many storms
Friends witness friends
Beaten to the floor
Down in the light of day
Pray as they might more must follow
Demons of infidels just the same

6. Sworn To Sacrifice

Sworn to forever bow to a god of vengeance
Forever in servitude to predestination
Cowards hiding behind rapture scripture promises
Man made fucking policy
Bullshit fucking ideology

These books wont get you shit boy
This life not good enough for you?

Die so slowly
Divine and holy
Confused sense of entitlement
Across the board
Why does all other life turn to dust
But yet somehow you're immortalized

Give me some sign that you can reason
Could you conceive there are no reasons?
Liars to 'yourselves
Stories to me
A law into you
Taking innocence to the grave
Sworn to sacrifice

Incurable mind disease
The prison of contained thought
The point of death for all men
You will never believe
We're not the enemies you want to free
The devils kin
Your model of sin

A figure to which of death prophet
A guard against any and all progress

7. Enemy Incited Armageddon

Minds full of prophetical voices
One more martyr to the cause
Helplessly they throw bodies to the fire
Extreme is this nations impasse

Confronted by pure self preservation
These maggots of the desert have to die
They have to swear never to restore their faith
And bleed out before we ever negotiate

Entering the word as a mindless shell
To be the victim of holy persuasion we thought
Only to see value in truth
And disregard any and all imagination

Nomadic and detached from the world
Simple people with simple intentions
Peasants and surplus to life itself
A curse to be lifted by means of torture

He is a free man as much as we let him be
He is a subject to the will of wars
You cannot instill a sense of reality
To a man whose reality belongs to the next

We've built walls of human flesh
We've turned our skin to lifeless dust
And we've left our skies like burning red flame
And seen death on a scale of near apocalypse
We've left the sky burning like red flame

We are not to see ourselves as any different
As much as we mean it there is bloodlust
You've been swept away in twisted worlds
And felt the need for the blunt instrument

It is the gift of the politician in state
To create mistakes, to see all people accountable
It has been the way of things since the advent of war
To tally your people, to confuse and distort

8. Nuclear Self Eradication

Mistaken men have chosen to make
An entire race a footnote in history
And these men in the sea of authority
Shadow their guilt in the darkness of collusion

They distance themselves from the cold truth

Preaching necessity like fucking despots
The type of people who see cities as pinpoints
Wash their hands in their own injustice
Armed with the power of gods

They speak carelessly of forthcoming
Casualties of war

Get their people to subscribe to their blueprint of death
Far away people will wake to their final breath
This is the dawn of nuclear self eradication

Far away people will wake to their final breath
Their graves are marked out by black shadows

9. Numbered Among The Dead

One day amongst the fires
You're left but staring down at yourself
Your flesh body is lifeless
Now among the glorious dead

So down I fell to meet the fires
Gone, worlds apart
From my shell, life beyond life
Death, too unreal

One day beyond my lifetime
I met no prophets or angels
I saw no deity I owed my sins
Now amongst the glorious dead

10. The Glorious Death

Truce has been called on war
Arms laid to the floor
Countless men speak of hell
Tyrants, what they saw
Close to death the men seem to say
These were the days of old

We arc the glorious dead

What is left for the ex patriot
What is left but resentment?
Death all too real

Countless men speak of hell
Of tyrants, what they saw
Close to death the men seem to cry

I'll at rest behind those eyes
What this person has seen
What his life has been
Changed from this man into machine
Returned home to find life insignificant
