So bite the bar or the bar bites you They hide behind their badge But will the justice pull through? They masquerade on the ones with no face But I'm next to feel disgraced This rage that fuels within Passed on by the world we live in This rage will break my silence Justice is blind Ignorance is blindness Just another day Just set it down When I get this straight I'll take that path no more Just walk away Just set it down When rage takes control I'll be that man no more They point the finger in dismay This broken clock is wrong twice a day But they misinterpret what I've just said Once again this bounty falls on my head Every day I get up I take a look in the mirror I don't like what I see This face staring back I don't recognise But it won't go away I see this same face every time When I catch it's eyes it screams back at me Got nothing to lose But got everything to gain Forced fed this shit from the ones who are to blame When it rains it pours Heed the warning you ignored And I've been fist fucked by the long arm of the law

The white horse leaves a stubborn stain A wretched figure behind a mask of red The fear endures without a soul Among them walks a pestilence and death Brig you to your knees The untouchable is now diseased The clock struck twelve and all is lost Ignorance has paid the cost Do as we say not as we do Open the door, your funeral is awaiting you Hourglass is filled with dirt and shame Falling on your face, cannot be saved Live your whole life just to be a slave Devil dancing one foot in the grave A chilling pair of colours mark the seventh room We're all afraid of what we fear Pointing fingers and pulling our triggers Our death will come under a funeral shroud Take your place as what you are So bar your windows and lock your doors We're all afraid of what we fear Pointing fingers and pulling all triggers Our death will come under a funeral shroud So bar your windows and lock your doors Taught to be afraid but don't know the cause The time is coming The plague is knocking Bring you to your knees The untouchable is now diseased And ignorance has paid the cost

Erosion 05:26
Fed the lies with the morning sky Read the papers as another one dies They say we need to be Where we don't defy Gone way off course Can't admit when they're wrong No ticker taper tape parade to save the day You're on a one way ticket to murder And the rockets light up the sky Countdown to judgement day Shards of metal rain down No rainbow coming in this sun shower Machines keep sending more lambs to the slaughter The cogs grind as they turn Feeding soul like gas to burn The pigs sit behind their oakwood lies As they wipe their mouths with franklins And the rockets light up the sky Countdown to judgement day Time has shown From a distance you will watch it all burn Down to the ground Just a kid in a mother fucking playground They've got weapons for all occasions To fuel their need For god, for flag, for country, Erosion I can't stand the blind hypocrisy The sheep follow the Shepperd Send them all to die for country Send them all to die for nothing Just collateral damage in this Erosion

Here it comes crawling back again Like a demon Mother Mary crying out for more A sweet sent from a dying whore A need for this sacred ritual Just want it all Breath in the broken shattered glass Do you even need to ask Not gonna walk the line Betting on black this time Got more bridges to burn We've got more medals to earn Rack'em up and start the chopping block Too late too stop The time is coming the eyes are turning Black at the bottom so keep on burning Pin prick eyes to guard the light From my ice blackened night Breath out and slay the rest the away The devil's coming and it's time to pay I've got no bridges to burn I've got no medals earn

Ill Fated 06:21
Just keep on listening You'll see what you've become Your eyes they're sickening Beauty you do not behold I walked past your broken mirror Escaped seven years of hell Just pray my luck won't run out Living like a rat hasn't changed your technique Still can't crawl out of your hole So sick and tired of being so weak Next time I'm going to have control Just pray my luck won't run out Could not stand the pain Everyday was always the same And then it hits Taking my soul for one more day Could not get away Never found the right words to say Then it slipped Took one last look then got away Confined to the depths of chaos you stole he witches crown Tearing leaves from a clover Sinking on this stone down Behind the eight ball no chance of escape Ill fated left for dead on the shit heap Cheated 5 times before the eyes saw Crocodile tears on the face of a whore I've become Ill fated

It's hard to speak your peace without your teeth Rhetoric will seal your doom You'll burn, you'll fry, you'll die Don't dare to tell me more lies Few and far between break through the seams Loyalty has slipped through the cracks You dropped the pace the watch set too late Runs on the pulse that beats with hate I place this hex on your fucking necks Throw down my voodoo tricks You've made your bed so sleep in it Comatose till your hollow death Fuel these words with wisdom Bound to ignorance Falsify innocence What the fuck is coming next? The pulse beats with rage Can't shake this cage Ain't got a friend to save you now The pulse beats with rage What you do or say can't shake this cage Force fed this lies for too long Burned your lives away down to one What's done is done so don't cry wolf The guilt sets in it's bulletproof Back track the steps you took from here Worry about your own, not the ones of your peers Pay the toll with the blood of ones soul The bridge you cross the beast still holds The world still burns The plagued ones turn Lies and deceit Ashes to the urn

Usurper 03:54
The crown is taken and the body broken A whisper round the room and the word is spoken Half cut at the end of an order Hammer off the chest face down in the water Don't you know what it takes to be a martyr? To make the sacrifice and tear apart a brother Too blind to see the underlying cause Round 2 and the tables have turned I got a finger on the trigger and a match to burn The candle's lit as both end fight To reach the middle first and kill the light What's done is done in the name of honour It's too late to turn back now and offer up another Walking through quicksand Every struggle pulls deeper I can bare the burden If you give it all to me But I swear that I'll kill you if you ever try to Put the blame on me Now it's time to bring the judgement from the sky And avenge with blood what they took from me Now it's time All men must serve and all men must die And on this night I will watch you The time has come for solace The time has come for peace The time has come for a black and red armada To bring them all to their knees The war is not over Battlements are overrun Integrity, sincerity, necessary enemies The storm age has begun

Nothing is set in stone You'll find the power on your own The weak pray to bridge a gap between A false sense of security Where were you when time stood still? Should i repent the guilt I feel? Why should I believe the words of saints? Words passed by generations always change Born without sin Free from within Life without hate Fate without faith I'll take the lords name in vain My will goes against the grain Conjure up a saviour to look ahead thou shalt not covet Embrace you curse, driven by greed All for the taking sin monopoly Should I bow down and beg for forgiveness Why my time is up I won't repent Why should I try to be something I'm not So you can tell me I'm guilty For my sins that don't exist Just say I'm guilty and move on The sun sets on your crumbling palace There will be no rapture It's easier to live When you have fate without faith Say I'm guilty Just say I'm guilty and move on

High winds under a desert sun Cooking up a recipe for the tonne What's started as survival Now counting days until my time's up They try to follow my lead No tell tales are left behind A mercenary lacks what the chemist will find The rich cry poor I want what's coming to me even more Envy fuels the sin to sloth Any measures taken at a cost Will I stand tall and face the silence If i should fall I gave my all Will I stand tall and face the silence A death sentence with a plan Do not stand in his way Or pay the price A predator to his prey Is it bark or bite? A deep wound to fill the void Something you can't ignore Lies upon lies that never set Easy to say not to forget I can paint a picture with a pint of blood I can wield an axe you put in the ground I can feel these wounds that cut so deep I don't need these demons driving me I don't need these demons driving Slowly taking changing within Slowly taking Changing within Envy is gripping

about

Decimatus Melbourne, Australia

Evolving the groove sound from the blueprint left by Pantera, Decimatus have been able to combine it with the raw heaviness of Lamb of God. The band has been able to forge ahead with a sound that wears its influences on its sleeve but in a way that doesn't seem dated or rehashed. This album is a breath of fresh air. Their take on metal is great because it’s fun and familiar while still original. ... more
