Icons How does it feel to be a fool? Believing lies of those who wash your brain? Can they give us a peaceful life? Why that desire to make new idols? (Chorus) Unbroken wolves Made propaganda Outcasts build a shrine to worship them The world is bleeding, holding hands They feed on you Are they your icons? They pay you giving speeches with promises undefined But you give yourself away These spheres blind your inside (Your hollow inside) There are many impostors Growing there People seal their absence giving their vows Once you make your choice, there’s no coming back They count on your weakness You trust in a lost cause Those living portraits resize your pockets You’re their bitch And so you call ‘em insignia (Chorus) Unbroken wolves Made propaganda Outcasts build a shrine to worship them The world is bleeding, holding hands They feed on you Are they your icons? Feel society in shadows Mankind is dying Oh God, this is real Can you wake from this dream? Perfect devices That thing for you Turning back to the fallen man They pay you giving speeches with promises undefined But You give yourself away People seal their absence giving their vows Once you make your choice there’s no coming back They count on your weakness You trust in a lost cause Those living portraits resize your pockets You’re their bitch And they’re your insignia

Dignidad Desecha Amor Frágil y sutil sensación Desecho en tu mísero corazón Manifiesto de ingratitud perpetua Esperando por una estable claridad Escarnecido amor por una inicua relación Harto de mí Estoy harto de ti Una vez más Perdí la fe Palabras impías brotan de tu ser Verás tu vanidad Forjar tu aflicción Mi llanto se cristalizó Por el odio en tu interior Traté de exorcizar tu promiscua razón Pero exhumaste todo perdón
4.	When Death Calls 04:49	lyrics	buy track
When Death Calls He saw the world black and narrow With nature’s wrath in his life The angel of death touched his flesh He never had a choice to be free 40 years of sickness Passed by lovely words from his lips He believed in a new day But not the morning sun that saw him die He embraced the pain As many haven’t done There he found the strength to release to his final destination His last words were printed on tears he shed on the ground Chorus Darkness in moments of clarity Voices in our awareness When his spirit rises among us Courage! Supremacy condition Holiness shining As we’re bleeding now for deadly things Punished by people’s negligence They stole his vitality. He never gave up He never resigned Without a fight Sourness tried to blind his soul But he rolled the dice once again He never gave up He never resigned Without a fight He embraced the pain As many haven’t done There he found the strength to release to his final destination His last words were printed on tears he shed on the ground Chorus Darkness in moments of clarity Voices in our awareness When his spirit rises among us Courage! Supremacy condition Holiness shining As we’re bleeding now for deadly things

6.	Flashbacks of a Soundless Place 04:34	lyrics	buy track
Flashbacks of a soundless place This world is just an incubated mirage I've been walking on a strange reality I've seen blood of my blood dead, I've seen flesh of my flesh dead, Everything that I loved has perished, Now are just remains, ashes and dust The deepest dream awaits for us At the end the world comes black when everything dies! (pre-chorus) So cold the world around Our tearful memories can't rest in peace We can't accept the magnificent reality Nothing lasts forever. (Chorus) A mankind blinded and lost Believing false beliefs for decades of despair Much fears, no remorse, no alternative Is the end of the game? It’s the cycle of life that seals of fate Moral slaves create rites and norms But we love these lies everyday We're the kings of materialism I've seen blood of my blood dead, Everything that I loved has perished, Now are just ashes and dust Your eyes reflect reality (Chorus) A mankind blinded and lost Believing false beliefs for decades of despair Much fears, no remorse, no alternative Is the end of the game? It’s the cycle of life that seals of fate All this time following lies for those who writes our destiny Drowned in a blinded path Watching our children in wrong purposes You fight for them But you cannot see The evil of our nature Still marching on… (Chorus) A mankind blinded and lost Believing false beliefs for decades of despair Much fears, no remorse, no alternative Is the end of the game? It’s the cycle of life that seals of fate Is the end of the game?

Illusions Decay The trip of my life Is coming to an end The war in me has conquered my will I’m feeling dead in life Tired to walk the world These prickly remains won’t be slaves again Chorus There’s nothing to lose This Life is short When future and hope intertwine I don’t care for your frantic words All hope is gone for me Time bomb is ticking Sucking the root of pain Steelers, Beggars, Sinners Broadcast this homicide All love I felt goes down See as the candle fades in a hollow plate You cannot stop this fate All thoughts swim in bullshit We bleed in the darkest hour Stop praying on your knees Don’t beg me anymore Take your laments away from me Chorus There’s nothing to lose This Life is short When Future and hope intertwine I don’t care for your frantic words All hope is gone for me You cannot stop this fate All thoughts swim in bullshit We bleed in the darkest hour Steelers, Beggars, Sinners Broadcast this homicide All love I felt goes down See as the candle fades in a hollow plate.
8.	Project Black Mind 04:42	lyrics	buy track
Project Black Mind Purified caste into this pestilent world Project black mind Supremacy our kind Neither frontiers nor emotional scars We are more than heroes We don’t save weak beings Our convictions inspired by cardinal sins of mankind Seduces us, morphing us, into an episode never told (Chorus) Leaders of oblivion Behind the numbing existence The vanity Our brand Seduction Enlighten the future now Coldness behavior Flows in our name Breaking threats that many fear Craving for the unknown resides in our taste As sacred secrets grow with our pride Ancient rules will be rewritten by steel blades In spheres of sovereignty Every deep slumber will be deleted When men profess our creed (Chorus) Leaders of oblivion Behind the numbing existence The vanity Our brand Seduction Staring our judgment rise Under burning bridges Sheltered nations will burn So all of them blind Will keep walking in a swarm Purified caste into this pestilent world Project black mind Supremacy our kind Neither frontiers nor emotional scars We are more than heroes We don’t save weak beings Ancient rules will be rewritten by steel blades In spheres of sovereignty Every deep slumber will be deleted When men profess our creed (Chorus) Leaders of oblivion Behind the numbing existence The vanity Our brand Seduction Enlighten the future now We hear the call of inhumanity The nemesis in our blood From all this essence Unleashed by our ghouls Enlighten the future now.
9.	Absolucion 03:07	lyrics	buy track
Absolucion Si crees en la razón más que en tu convicción No pretendas que el mundo se torne rosa Porque la vida se irá proclamando Despierta, levanta ya, tu cara contra el mundo ¿Dónde están tus agallas? ¿de qué están hechas tus entrañas? Déjame ser testigo ésta vez, de toda tu banalidad. Recoge lo que quede en tu interior Lo único que queda… Respira la verdad Única intimidad con la realidad Si quieres huir Escapar sin sufrir Las cadenas se fundirán con tus venas Mírame! No creo en tus palabras Muéstrame! La verdad de tu mirada Esta vez! Tal vez rompa tu cara y así obtendrás tu absolución Tú absolución!
