Chimaira - Crown Of Phantoms Album Lyrics

The Machine

It is alive beyond the dark side passing through the light
Blast off, catalyst paradigm shift of consciousness
Transcend the end we manifest what we think
We create all the love and the hate through the battles we go
We have died a million times before

Every struggle opens a door forget this mortal coil and rise up
The time has come to reboot the machine
Watch it thrive, Living the high life dreaming of paradise
Cast off, mask off alien green crystalline do you feel alive?

No Mercy

Wide awake bleeding on the inside doubt
The consequences feelings internal holocaust, blast
Reach for the gun and put it to their heads
The uncontrollable appetite to kill the pain
Where is your god now? Where is your faith?
Reach for the gun and put it to their heads
Force them out the voice is pulling me away

No more lies no more goddamn Hollywood vampires
Suck it dry no mercy for the heartless
It is a beautiful day to die kill the pain rip their hearts out

All That's Left Is Blood

Take a look to the sky emptiness surrounds us
Feel so meaninglessness
Murder, anarchy a state of distress
So cynical and halfhearted
Becoming the shameless no association
The signal disconnects who cares what has been said
The tide turned to red
All that is left is blood

Feel the cold steel on the back of your head
One click and it is over
Nobody to judge the godless
No guardian angels
There is nothing in our way
The world is ours to take
All that is left is blood

I Despise

Fake, judgemental hypocrite self-righteous piece of shit you think you know it all
Don't know a fucking thing about me do you? no, you're everything I despise
And nothing will save you now celebrate the demise of broken dreams
And empty promises you are the disease
Pathetic waste of life get down on your knees
Beg to stay alive, The truth is I can't fight the urge to smash your fucking head in
To break your fucking face crazed, Sharpening the blade all that's left in me is rage
It would be worth it all to put you in your fucking grave

Plastic Wonderland

Hello again my friend it's time to start there is no end
Choking on diamond fantasy enter the madness
Beautiful sadness you won't escape this stranglehold and it feels so cold
And I can't stop won't stop all the highs and lows
Overwhelming paranoia to ease the blows

It's a holiday, another holiday
It's just a holiday in this plastic wonderland
Unleashing the excess illuminate darkness
You will embrace this troubled soul
Can you take me higher just to make me low

The Transmigration

Crown Of Phantoms

Survival of the fittest denial of existence
Missing a piece inside of me I must awaken
Revival of everything I'd live and die for
Too late to go back now the walls are crashing down
Walk with me through misery wear the crown of phantoms
Devour the weak empower the meek finding the beast inside of me

And I will grow stronger for everything I'd live and die for
Erase the ghosts from the past
Awake, release the anger at last
Come walk with me through misery

Spineless

These words will cut you like a knife
And I'm killing this idea that you're perfect
Blinded by your own your own revolution
Misguided following insane delusions all illusions
Weak minded backstabber and if I told you once I told you a thousand times
When will you realize you're spineless?
Just another useless wasted life so spineless
How does it feel motherfucker to know I'm right?

Running away you're just a coward feel my strength
Fall victim to the power get on your knees and pray for death
How does it taste your final breath such a disgrace
To the human race a total fraud, one side, two faced
You are the master of manipulation
Bow to me, embrace the decimation.

Kings Of The Shadow World

Horror, inconceivable to believe torture, penetrate the heart of humanity
To satisfy is to sacrifice we rely on death to give meaning to life
Cult healing incomprehensible twenty first century massacre
We are what you fear the most in this drugged up dystopia
Catatonic butchers rule the mind we are what you fear the most
Orchestrating execution kings of the shadow world

Panic, everlasting cause for alarm terror, trepidation dropping the bomb
To satisfy is to sacrifice leave them, incapacitated twenty first century massacre
We are what you fear the most in this drugged up dystopia
Catatonic butchers rule your mind we are what you fear the most
Orchestrating execution kings of the shadow world
Behind the curtain evil darkness behind the shadows build inside us

Wrapped In Violence

Fuck what they say a dying age
A boiling rage will forever define us
And now your back's against the wall
The burning flame will forever divide us
Welcome to the separation say goodbye to your generation
New era of domination life is chaos wrapped in violence

Fuck yesterday we're here to slay
A cloudy haze will forever define us
And now your back's against the wall
You're hollow fear will forever divide us
Fuck what you think no, fuck everything
A middle finger will forever define us
And now your back's against the wall

Love Soaked Death

Love soaked death two suns on one tongue
A kiss from across the universe
The black bottomless pit of hell
Kaleidoscope altered imagery
I was so terrified to see is this all that I've become
A hopeless tragedy acceleration toward infinity
The walls are closing new reality
Opened eye is this death?
Love soaked death two suns on one tongue
A kiss from across the universe
Enter my brain sweet poison
