You hide behind false history
The present it proves you wrong
Dollars disregard humanity
As long as you're kept strong
Demand for changes keeps rising
Problem denied too long
What if it was one of your own
Left dead and all alone
They spill the blood of innocents
You let them carry on
What chance a new amendment
Nothing is set in stone
Every day dozens die
Blood is spilt
Mothers cry
Safe in your world
Face the small child
Friends have all died
Explain what happened to them
Hatred stockpiled
Shooter inside
Told to run hide
Explain what happened to them
Every day dozens die
Blood is spilt
Mothers cry
Safe in your world
Face the small child
Friends have all died
Hatred stockpiled
Shooter inside
Told to run hide
Outcry, justice, change
But all ignored
Placing rights above
The need for safety
Safety

With the Tide

Clinging onto power
That you snatched from nothing
How can you find peace at night
Flock will follow
Every order
Flock will follow
Every order
Make your own rules
By your own hand
History will be your judge
Flock will follow
Every order
Flock will follow
Every order
What to believe
Where to begin
Every source a lie
Watched by govermental eyes
Clinging onto power
That you snatched from nothing
How can you find peace at night
Flock will follow
Every order
Flock will follow
Every order
Whole world watches
As the plan unravels
Recklessly endangered fate
Flock will follow
Every order
Flock will follow
Every order
What to believe
Where to begin
Every source a lie
Watched by govermental lies
You can't survive
Cast out with the
You can't survice
Cast out with the tide
Cast out with the tide

The Supplicant

Liar, you opened fire
Concealed the truth now it's open
And that's why we're talking today
Liar, you feel the ire
Of those you abandoned
When you withdrew hands of support
I loved you
Now I despise you
I've seen through
Your wise words
You wish we could start over
But what do you have to offer
Cast aside, uneeded
Warnings went unheeded
What do you expect to hear
Liar, you opened fire
Concealed the truth now it's open
And that's why we're talking today
Liar, you feel the ire
Of those you abandoned
When you withdrew hands of support
I loved you
Now I despise you
I've seen through
Your wise words
You wish we could start over
But what do you have to offer
Small steps
Carrying the burden
Small steps always take it with you
Small steps
Carrying the burden
Small steps always take it with you
Guilt

Origins
03:56
|
|||
Beginning of the solar system
Collapsing mass collected in the centre
Condensing matter warms the fire
For the arrival of a new born star
Protoplanetary cloud of matter
Circulates and spreads across a parsec
Millions upon millions of collisions
Slowly grows the plantesimal clump
Evolutionary history charts the rise of life
Change across the generations leads us to the now
Accretion disc revolves around the new sun
Giant impact sends matter into orbit
Coalesce forming the lunar partner
Stabilise the axis of rotation
Liquid water provided the movement
Rise of earliest known life forms
Setting down of sedimentary layers
Split between bacteria and archaea.
Photosynthesizing organisms
Cyanophyta oxidising iron
Hurricanes they stimulate the process
Forming of the ozone layer
Tectonics beginning of subduction
Renew the crust of Earth that we all live on
Arrival of the Cambrian explosion
Accelerated diversification
Evolutionary history charts the rise of life
Change across the generations leads us to the now
Origins; the point at which something begins
Origins; conception, creation
First land plants and global glaciation, microbial life on land
Tetrapods emerge and leave the water, divergence of the phyla bands.
Evolutionary history charts the rise of life
Change across the generations leads us to the now
It's taken so much
Just to get us here
We're soon to destruct
Our own panacea

Applied to die, the sky's aflame
Effect a change or pay the price
Wasteland expands the shadow creeps
Ignored by all, deflect by lies
Cultures diverse
Appointment serves to kill
Over and over again
The screen turns black bodies are left
Inflames our hearts dreaming of death
Where East meets West we choose a side
Fractures divide, the stakes are high
Cultures diverse
Appointment serves to kill
Over and over again
Red the sky
Cast aside
Your hope dies
Free the light
Despite what we have we are not free
Respite is gained from hegemony
The lie we’re told to keep us at bay
Ensures these times are essentially dead
Cultures diverse
Appointment serves to kill
Over and over again

Id Breaker
05:39
|

Component present from birth
Impulse lying side by side
Our id precedes the ego
Inheritance drives the mind
No values good or evil
No judgement of the facts
Great reservoir of libido
Its instinct to create
Where’s your ego
Now?
Originate from somatic drivers
Satisfaction on demand
Instinct that fires destruction
Is always close at hand
Cauldron filled with expectation
Answers must be supplied
True self-gratification
Unconscious by design
Where’s your ego
Now?
Face to face with the id breaker
Face to face

Lizard Method Statement
05:07

Harmony, a bitter screed that calls into question
A better lie, told half the time masking the answer
Invective accrues revealing the clues as we enter our winter
Subject to lose yet denying the views, instigate our doom
Instigate our doom
Tortuous grind in the crawl from the light towards the dark
A brief flash in time, a spark extinguished, gone forever
Fell beneath the spell of madness, the path is lost and overgrown
Stare into the swirling abyss, hope has died we plead as one
Silently the majority submit to the will of
Darkened skies cast no light, live in the shadow
Appointed to you, yet denied by too few the wave it has broken
Carelessly slew the future for truth, pacified by hate
Pacified by hate
Tortuous grind in the crawl from the light towards the dark
A brief flash in time, a spark extinguished, gone forever
Fell beneath the spell of madness, the path is lost and overgrown
Stare into the swirling abyss, hope has died we please as one
Versions of the truth demand you run away avoid the fight
Opposition tinged with sadness, reveals the scars of another time
No-one will remember
As the dust returns to the earth you are forgotten

Sneak Attack
04:15
|

8000 days that filled the years
Through thick and thin, blood and tears
What we saw would fill a book
Feed the flaw, remove the hook
Promised that you had his back
Embed the knife, a sneak attack
Swore the same and kept the pact
Loneliness, your future curse
Circle has shrunk
The ties are cut
Surrounded by your sycophants
You chose your path, no turning back
Replaced the group you self-anoint
Shadow falls and pricks the soul
Circle has shrunk
The ties are cut
You Carry So Much Guilt
Every day
Life’s just a stone
Around your neck
Circle has shrunk
The ties are cut
Life’s just a stone
Around your neck

Notice the change, compassion fades
Eyes turning inwards increasing the pain
Enter the mind of valueless time
Chasing a dream that is based on a lie
World is bereft, what is there left
Destroyed the good and poisoned the rest
Fictitious signs oppressing the minds
Damage the future whilst keeping us blind
What's been created, egregious statements
Dangerous precedent set for the nations
Facing the fight without cause to violence
Peaceful resistance, alone in the silence
Divide and burn these commodities
These products that keep us weak
Sedated, prone to authority
Invite the life we seek
Most species live for millenia
We're dying to become extinct
Depleted, emptied establishment
World teeters on the brink
Divide and burn these commodities
These products that keep us weak
Sedated, prone to authority
Invite the life we seek
What's been created, egregious statements
Dangerous precedent set for the nations
Facing the fight without cause to violence
Peaceful resistance, alone in the silence
What's been created, egregious statements
Dangerous precedent set for the nations

Siderian Northampton, UK
Paying no heed to musical trends and fads, favouring massive riffs and thought-provoking lyrics welded to a relentless signature groove, the band laid down an album ("Origins") that dips in and out of metal’s more extreme sub-genres at will, seamlessly mixing a blend of razor-sharp riffery and caustic vocals with percussive battery and thumping low-end. ... more
