Wriggling serpent, creature without fear Nothing on earth is his equal Keeper to the gates of the mouth of hell Overseer of man's wolf-like nature Live without state is nasty, brutish and short. Man is man's wolf – war of war against all. Abuse of power – the price for peace. Fear is the weapon that keeps you under control. Around his teeth unspeakable terror; His heart is hard as stone; His eyes like the rays of dawn. The principle of trias politica. Confederacy of deceivers takes dominion over man. A kingdom of darkness ruled by the beast of many eyes. Despotic constriction – the coils grow tight Under the banner of public security. Any hope of subduing him is false; The mere sight of him is overpowering. The sword that reaches him cannot avail Too strong and tightly sealed are his scales.

The safest road to hell is the gradual one - the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, A descent unfelt Mystery Babylon Megamachine little Eichmanns behind their desks Bureaucracy Babylon Technocracy system of the grotesque Pave the way to a Brave New World Complicit to systems of immorality Orchestrators of another Holocaust by accepting the premises of the state. When will you be called into account?

Shipwrecked 05:43
The ocean, the sea, never ending blue we're floating, we're steering aren't we way off course? Our compass is broken the captain's mind's overboard the maps are false the rigging's lost shipwrecked in the ocean of life the rigging is broken we're lost forever

Mesmerized 06:33
Wide is the gate and broad is the road Abound with the mass of perdition Walking the path of the least resistance A people lacking knowledge and vision Receive the mark/666 under your skin The Seal of our species' demise/ To seal our species' demise Conform to the system that binds you in chains Submit to the father of lies Mesmerized by illusions We're falling prey to a soulless elite The lies we were raised to believe Lead to a fool's paradise that we consider living Content in our cages We'll be lead to the slaughter like sheep The madness to conformity To a fool's paradise that we consider living We willingly forfeit the right to be free for bread and games and convenience lured into snares set by unseen hands forced into slavish obedience Through lethargy we are bound to become Serfs to a system of total control Despots posing as angels of light imprison the body, enthralling the soul Content in our cages At the mercy of a soulless elite We sheeple embrace a fool's paradise that we consider living Under surveillance Of Satan's all seeing eye Existence reduced To a fool's paradise that we consider living

The witches assemble on mountains Of glass, concrete and steel. The witches' Sabbath commences As they invoke avarice and greed. Silver, paper and gold exalted To the status of the Most High. Unjust monetary gain - In this demon god they all trust. Rites arcane beyond control To gain the world but loose your soul. The unjust treasures for which you lust Destroyed in the end by moth and rust Carried up from the depths of hell On the back of an infernal Wolf; Coming to inflame the human heart With craving and with greed. Bull and bear chained to his leash. The law of the market - his own device. Mammon, Prince of Hell - Lord of Avarice Human flesh consumed – at their Black Masses The witches soaring high - through the spells of white lines Possessed witches insane – voracious as starving wolves Euphoria or depression – prices rise and fall Buy and sell – submit to the laws of the market Disaster or prosperity – unpredictable deity Mass hysteria – Loss of reason and self Maenadic frenzy unleashed – All are one in the Coven The witches assemble on mountains Of glass, concrete and steel. The witches' Sabbath is brought to an end by their own avarice and greed. Black magic and witchery Too much for man to master. The backlash of demonic force Lures the world into disaster.
