DARKNESS OWNS YOUR SOUL (Music: Novak / Hellenbach / Heller) (Lyrics: Aymar) A pestilence of ignorance inflicts the status quo A somnolence of cognizance to keep you in control And you see the world through lifeless eyes Darkness owns your soul Avarice and opulence as sacred as profane Hunger is the breeding ground for war or do my eyes deceive me? Beware, behold, the seas are boiling Beware, behold, the winds are cold Fallacy and fiction keeps you blinded from the truth Burdened by a perfect lie, the curse of servants Beware, behold, the sky's on fire Beware, behold, your fate foretold in untold horror And you see the world through lifeless eyes Darkness owns your soul And you see the world so agonized Heart as black as coal Darkness owns your soul Beware, behold, the seas are boiling Beware, behold, the winds are cold Beware, behold the sky's on fire Beware, behold, your fate foretold in untold horror And you see the world through lifeless eyes Darkness owns your soul And you see the world so agonized Darkness owns your soul A pestilence of ignorance inflicting all you know A somnolence of cognizance to keep you in the Darkness owns your soul

(Music: Hellenbach / Heller) (Lyrics: Hellenbach) DNA hijackers plunder genome maps Altering genetic sequence, causing chromosome collapse Scientific playground, the double helix raped Our future children could be artificially shaped Technological control over human evolution The stage has been set for post-human revolution Genetic engineering approaching bio-threshold Pandora's box revealed, the transhuman era about to unfold Genetics drowning the ancient language of creation Setting the framework, our new economic foundation The bio-tech age, genetically modified lifeforms Introducing next genesis, our world's new norms No cure created for the catalyst is green Monetary system-whores feeding the corporate machine Children bred in test tubes, dreams tailored out of clay Genes sold through a catalogue, the most perfectly assembled DNA Entering the domain of new genetic reign A programming tool to alter the brain Our neverending need to control the way we exist Forced evolution, accept or delete? A post-human race, will we ever be able to compete Entering the domain of new genetic reign A programming tool to alter the brain Our neverending need to control the way we exist If we fail to accept natural evolution I will be the first in line for humanity's execution

DECEIVED (Music: Hellenbach / Heller) (Lyrics: Heller) Cursed To Crawl in servant's song, force fed your beliefs again March solely alone I won't give in Fight to reach a promised land, slips right in between my hands Destroys everything I am, right to get back up and fight to get back up again Dreams too grand, they are all I have, follow them until the end I'm left on my own now, I still won't give in Hourglass counts down again, sense of urgency at hand Left with only grains of sand, can you grant me one last stand? Something answers my cries, fortune opens my eyes To the gates I arrive, your beliefs are a lie Is this really all there is? Can there be something else? I fought hard for all my dreams but all my dreams did not mean anything Deceived Promised land, just a promised lie, only hell disguised again Found it's not the answer, guess I have to give in Fought in search of promised land, have it here within my hands Sadly not what I had planned, can't turn back the clock again Something answered my cries, fortune changed my whole life To these gates I've arrived Your beliefs are a lie Your beliefs, all a lie Your beliefs are a lie

EVOLUTION DIGITIZED (Music: Hellenbach / Novak / Heller) (Lyrics: Hellenbach / Levalois) “Once housed in indestructible lattices of silicon, humans will become the archetype of a new generation. An upgraded version of themselves created by their own hands. A digitized mirror image of egocentric lunacy. The will to power, the obsession to obtain singularity. The birth of the post-human!” “The merging has begun” From the hands of our ancient fathers to the wombs of our future mothers We drown it all in dissonant waters We’re becoming objects of conscious design, blueprints for a new religion Products of our own production lines, slaves by design Reborn - never one to disappear, take my mind to the stratosphere Tearing through time Are we obsolete? A race to be revised Or parts of a larger device? An evolution digitized Upload synaptic information onto mainframe computation An artificial network - neural replication We’ve become the driver of thoughts realigned, software upgrade - new version Technological rebirth into the divine, gods by design Take hold of the ones to make our future clear, bring our minds to the stratosphere Rising through time Are we obsolete? A race to be revised Or parts of a larger device? An evolution digitized Reborn, never one to disappear, take my mind to the stratosphere Tearing through time Are we obsolete? A race to be revised Or parts of a larger device? An evolution digitized “The merging slowly continues as all ethics are gradually removed from the test objects mind”
