Tyranny
04:19
|

A great man the nation broke
A golden flood for men to choke
A merchant drives an army of slaves
Body bags formation parade
We raise our flags, we hold our breath
For a dream that's died within our heads
And the bells toll for freedom's death
Refuse a crown but buy a throne
Corruption takes but cannot own
Marble halls stuffed full to bleed
A people driven onto their knees
We raise our flags, we hold our breath
For a dream that's died within our heads
And the bells toll for freedom's death

Brutus
04:55
|
|||
In darker skies, the streets are shaking
The children play with bloodied knives
The barracks full, the soldiers smiling
The sickness comes as cheap as life
Shadows play in dirty gutters
Running red with brother’s lives
Beyond the fear, whispered rebellion
The people cry out in the night
Brutus, are you sleeping?
Can't you see the writing on the wall?
Brutus, can you hear them screaming?
Can you wake up, can you stand tall?
Within our beds there is no safety
When they knock upon our door
And no one asks many questions
When you're seen never more
Brutus, are you sleeping?
Can't you see the writing on the wall?
Brutus, can you hear them screaming?
Can you wake up, can you stand tall?
Are you sleeping?
Are you sleeping?
Are you sleeping?

Conspiracy
05:02
|

The time has come in certainty
The moment of our history
The time to strike in this high body
From bondage we deliver we
No more wreaths laid at his feet
No more parades in the street
The gold you take makes liberty weep
From bondage we deliver we
The bloodied truth will set us free
Whispered veins of conspiracy
The deed be done and done it will be
From bondage we deliver we
The bloodied truth will set us free
Whispered veins of conspiracy
The deed be done and done it will be
From bondage we deliver we
Brothers, meet in secrecy
Ideals soaked in purity
Praise the unity of the deed
From bondage we deliver we
The time has come in certainty
The moment of our history
The time to strike in this high body
From bondage we deliver we
The bloodied truth will set us free
Whispered veins of conspiracy
The deed be done and done it will be
From bondage we deliver we
The bloodied truth will set us free
Whispered veins of conspiracy
The deed be done and done it will be
From bondage we deliver we

Libertas

They say the day is coming
Behind the walls in this town
When all the plans will see fruition
And bring the whole throne room down
So it is, with tyrants
We have to rise to see them fall
The blade shines without frustration
And liberty for one and all
The say the slave has no mercy
When they rise to their whiphand
We say it now, in full sedition
No mercy will be shown across this land
And so it is, with tyrants
We have to rise to see them fall
The blade shines without frustration
And liberty for one and all

Nemesis
03:49
|
|||
Wolf to wolf and wolf to God
The raging seas of the mob
Bloodied hands beneath the sun
The treachery has just begun
The tides of hearts quick to turn
As kings of tin are quick to burn
Oaths of piety repealed
Calls of power always appeal
Liberation cannot survive
Where knaves and rogues breed and thrive
Thousands march with gold and knives
Always how freedom dies

Dented Shield
06:16
|
|||
I saw a storm of tears and mourn
Bursting flames at break of dawn
Dried my eyes and raised my head
Kissed the pearl, marble and red
And though we fall
Bleed and crawl
Better a dented shield
Than no shield at all
Fight and lose, born to choose
To cry in fear, or rise and bruise
No shame is there to say you care
To let your rage have its share
To answer every call
Fight for every cause
Better a dented shield
Than no shield at all
Take my hand, and fate be damned
We'll make our stand, across this land
Too strong my dear to live in fear
And far too proud to live in this shroud
Until the iron walls
Tumble and fall
Better a dented shield
Than no shield at all
To answer every call
Fight for every cause
Better a dented shield
Than no shield at all
Take my hand, and fate be damned
We'll make our stand, across this land
Too strong my dear to live in fear
And far too proud to live in this shroud
Until the iron walls
Tumble and fall
Better a dented shield
Than no shield at all
Until the iron walls
Tumble and fall
Better a dented shield
Than no shield at all

The wheel turns
The world burns
You too, child
You too, child
Time shows
What the wind knows
You too, child
You too, child...
