lyrics

LONG BLACK RIBBON OF POWER

LIKE A MAP TURNS INTO DEATH ROW

RIGHT THERE ON THE SILK ROAD

HISTORY OF WAR IN FRICTION BURNS

ILLUMINATING WASTE AT A FAST PACE

STICK TO A DOGMA

BASED ON SLAUGHTER

RADIATION RAKED THROUGH

A BLOOD CLOT

ENERGY WE HAVE NOT



DON’T EVEN TRY TO REDEEM YOUR WORDS

ANY TIME OF DAY CIRCLE ROUND LIKE BIRDS OF PREY

ON A HUMAN TARGET

DROWNING IN IT’S SPITE

STARE AT LIGHT

BLACK RIBBON BLACK RIBBON

DO YOU THINK WE SURVIVE ON FRIGHT?

DO YOU THINK WE SURVIVE ON YOUR CIGARETTE ASH?

DO YOU THINK WE SURVIVE ON GOD

DO YOU THINK WE SURVIVE ON LIES AND FRAUD?

LIES AND FRAUD



YOU’RE JUST A SYMPTOM

A PLAGUE OF TENSION

WITHOUT A REASON

YOU’RE WAR/ NO WARNING

A BLOOD SOAKED STORM

YOU’RE ALL THAT’S WRONG

YOU’RE ALL THAT’S WRONG



LONG BLACK RIBBON OF POWER

LIKE A WOUND TURNS INTO A BLOOD FLOW

FUCKING WITH DNA CODE

SPITE ON THE WALLS AS TIME CRAWLS

BATTERIES LOW AS NIGHT FALLS

ROTTING IN DARKNESS

NEVER BY STARS

ALL YOUR BLOOD CAN’T DROWN OUT A WAR CRY

POWER IN A BLACK SKY



DON’T TRY TO TELL ME YOU LIKE MY STYLE

YOU’RE THE WORST IN ME, YOUR TWISTED LIMBO

FANTASY HUMAN TARGET DELIVERY

BOILING IN SPITE

IN THE BLACK NIGHT

BLACK RIBBON BLACK RIBBON

YOU’RE GOD, YOU’RE A PARASITE

YOU’RE A CONSTRUCT BORN TO FIGHT



STOP AND GO / NEVER KNOW

TIDAL VEIN / BLOOD FLOW

CAN THE BULLETS MAKE YOU STRONG?

WHAT IF WE WERE NEVER WRONG?

LEAVE IT THERE / LET IT DIE

HUMAN TARGET PIG STY

YOU DECAY BEFORE YOU DIE

SCREAMING AT THE SKY

NEVER KNOW THE REASON WHY

NEVER KNOW THE REASON WHY

FORGE ALL GUNS FROM GOD
