Listen to my words, for they're made of fire I hearken to a call from beyond Whispers soaring through space and time From aeons of chaos, into a labyrinth of doubt To foresee the fall of empires, to understand the shame Of a mind cast out of balance, a victim of foul play ? Neurons frozen, or so it seems Misdirected, I lay my plead Seeking guidance from madness, I'll cling to this Misconnected, Mind Effigies I am the sullied interior; I am the ghost in black Calling all war fronts to the siege within Cortex spilling, crimson seeding Man-made holocaust Mind-deceiving, Soul-retreating Folly without cause Suddenly, there is silence in the sea of rumors No sound nor sight beyond matter, all sat in stupor And all the gifts I've known, lobotomized Withered out, torn apart, crystallized Neurons frozen, or so it seems Misdirected, I lay my plead Seeking guidance from madness, I'll cling to this Misconnected, Mind Effigies [lead - Pedro Valença] (I stand so) Powerless (I stand so) Overwhelmed Requiem of the insane, feasting on life Hath all my wisdom left me blind? Far from the reaches of brain The healing must come once again Powers that be all end the same All the same Neurons frozen, or so it seems Misdirected, I lay my plead Seeking guidance from madness, I'll cling to this Misconnected, Mind Effigies

Critical situation For all eternity Minds in alienation Following insanities Crisis of a blind society Crimes without mercy Religious wars No justice for all Self-destruction!! Of a blind society that lives an illusion Self-destruction!! Killing these worms who claim to be human Self-destruction!! Luxuries appropriations Hearing banalities Hypocrisy domination Nature disappears Bad ideologies Stupid racism Protector's law Leaders shall fall Self-destruction!! Of a blind society that lives an illusion Self-destruction!! Killing these worms who claim to be human Self-destruction!! [Lead - Pedro Valença] Self-destruction!!!

Understand the consequences, don't be selfish and coward. Our future can be an abyss, the wrong becomes routine. No madness will bring salvation, only perseverance. Not facing reality is deceiving thy destiny. Common habits or normal habits? I can't control my rage within I see the end around the world People deceive themselves What's common is different than normal Anticipating tragedies, distorting the facts Face life or hide, don't close your eyes, it would be insufficient. The wishes of his brain showed its fragility Losing your sense of balance means inability Common habits or normal habits? I can't control my rage within I see the end around the world Peoples deceive themselves What's common is different than normal [Lead - Augusto Ferrer] [Lead - Diego Lacerda] [Lead - Pedro Valença] Atrocities are becoming just news; the banality is leaving him blind. All around the Earth, mindless masses subside The law of confusion spreads all around Waiting, lying to claim one more life Common habits or normal habits? I can't control my rage within I see the end around the world People deceive themselves What's common is different than normal Follow the ethic of the true life My pride is under of my wrongs The scream of justice disappears What's common is different than normal Now kill your cold individuality I'll never feel the hope reborn Stop your silent insanity What's common is different than normal The conscience overcomes the intelligence Trust your instincts, your confidence It is time to step up For What's common is different than normal

Surrender thy mind, a step for the blind Stories that remain untold Never digress, laid now to rest Behold the storm that draws close Blood, lies, pain, Idiocracy Hatred, God, greed, Idiocracy Witness thy rights, mauled out by blight Its reason you shall never know Keep up with times, a slave to the grind Thy rulers are way past their prime Blood, lies, pain, Idiocracy Hatred, God, greed, Idiocracy Without rhyme, without reason A whole species burning down The fallout symphony upon us Cast thy faith to the ground Fire runs down from the firmament We shall be one with the clouds Carving our tombstones with sign of Mammon A legacy of the gaunt Quenching this thirst, eternal Its time to reap what thou hast sown A crimson-red new morning Twilight of men unfolds White-collar vultures ascending now To be the brand-new gods Into a world bent down on its knees We serve, we cry, we fall [Lead - Pedro Valença] Surrender thy mind, a step for the blind Stories that remain untold Never digress, laid now to rest Behold the storm that draws close Blood, lies, pain, Idiocracy Hatred, God, greed, Idiocracy Now!!!

Remove yourself from this prison where your mind is Remove the blindfold from your eyes to see the truth Don't be a follower, be your own leader Don't let them speak for you Without Opinion, what you really believe? Without Opinion, are your thoughts deceived? Without Opinion, nobody speaks for me! Why do you allow your troubles to dominate? The routine does not alienate but prevents you from thinking! What makes you so sure? What keeps you safe? What safeguards your fragile mind when it's time to awake? Without Opinion, what you really believe? Without Opinion, are your thoughts right? Without Opinion, nobody speaks for me! In a maze without walls, you consume yourself Plagued and tormented Like a rat in a cage, in quick decay [Lead - Fabiano Penna] Without Opinion, what you really believe? Without Opinion, are your thoughts deceived? Without Opinion, nobody speaks for me! Remove yourself from this prison where your mind is Remove the blindfold from your eyes to see the truth Don't be a follower, be your own leader Don't let them speak for you

Don't follow religious ignorance Don't waste your life in illusions The cross cults the fear Despising your feeling for greed Bloody story of crimes The dogmas bleed your reason Its lies resisted for times Respect the antichrist Sacrifice! Hypocrisy! The false light Start your heretic life [Lead - Antônio Araújo] The church creates Satan Hell and the paradise Selling false faith for gold The protest today's an enterprise Made alliances to support wars Turning its back from science Spilling blood in its way The church banished the truth Sacrifice! Hypocrisy! The false light Start your heretic life Sacrifice! Hypocrisy! [Lead - Pedro Valença] Conscience is true shepherd Thy perseverance, true faith Your conquests bless your soul Totally controlling your rage Don't forget its dreadful past Question the holy books Resist this false illusion Alone, you carry on Sacrifice! Hypocrisy! The false light Start your heretic life

Forests today, deserts tomorrow Earthquakes, tsunami and flames Lake of illusion, for prostitution Ice caps gone with your hope In grey skies, missions of war Business or arms for peace? See the true face, countries in disgrace Sleeping to forget this pain Living in nightmares and dreaming with better days Make indecency contribute to this decadence Evil intentions justifying this survival Humans in depression searching for the will to live Involution of a lost society Contribution for a life on agony Web of lies, hypocrisy in love Two faces destroying your heart Crazy attacks, emptiness dance Jokes that kill innocents School of tools, parents protect Future legions of betrayers Image is all, characters will fall See the true intentions! Living in nightmares and dreaming with better days Make indecency contribute to this decadence Evil intentions justifying this survival Humans in depression searching for the will to live Involution of a lost society Contribution for a life on agony [Lead - Pedro Valença] Science for good, science for bad Slaves of sickness and drugs Help the next? We're getting stoned To feast in a world of misery Prisons for the poor, they do not exist Leave them for the rich Don't suicide; it's not your right I'm still searching for some hope Living in nightmares and dreaming with better days Make indecency contribute to this decadence Evil intentions justifying this survival Humans in depression searching for the will to live Involution of a lost society Contribution for a life on agony

The ones who walk with fear Are the ones who do not obey Bound to a life in slavery Of torment, pain and dismay We created these monsters We feed the beasts that shall devour us As our ways lead us to the same place No retribution! As they plunder, scold and betray Release us, save us! Humans made of clay Wasting their lives, always breeding hate A shell surrounding hollow and rotten contents Who shall survive? Who shall die? No retribution! As they plunder, scold and betray Our sweat and blood Means nothing at all They're just ways to precede our fall We walk on thorns That they've laid on our way This is the price of dignity [Lead - Diego Lacerda] [Lead - Pedro Valença] Veins that run with poison, nullifying all that is sane Eager to accumulate wealth... Brooding, hoping to remain Hope lies unanswered as we split the flesh from bone Carving our needs from their greed, alone No retribution! As they plunder, scold and betray Our sweat and blood Means nothing at all They're just ways to precede our fall We walk on thorns That they've laid on our way This is the price of dignity

(On your knees !) That's where you're supposed to be Blinded by a delusional faith Every step is a sin (On your knees !) That's where they want you to be Leashed like a common dog Unable to fend off You see nothing The path is dimmed before us You feel nothing But the wish to betray yourself You know nothing But the fact you'll fade alone You'll be nothing When you cross the Rubicon [Lead - Alejandro Flores] (We know you !) Heir of an invisible crutch All wicked deeds justified By a twisted moral compass (We know you !) And all the things you've done To consume and degrade To corrupt us as one You see nothing The path is dimmed before us You feel nothing But the wish to betray yourself You know nothing But the fact you'll fade alone You'll be nothing When you cross the Rubicon The road to hell is paved with good intentions False, poisoned words are all you can proclaim Taken to a wider level, all rendered in vain Witness what you've become, and forever cower in shame [Lead - Pedro Valença] You see nothing The path is dimmed before us You feel nothing But the wish to betray yourself You know nothing But the fact you'll fade alone You'll be nothing When you cross the Rubicon

[Lead - Fabiano Penna] Silhouette approaching, and blood's A' boiling Dissident ablaze, under a martyr's sky Bullet wounds to the soul, he can never let it go Coming undone in every footstep A doctrine to seize the vold Renegade! A soul longing to return From the chaos once called home Sovereign! Detached from every outcome Untarnished by the smoking gun Burn down the trail of lies and scorn Abide the will, but never the norm Clad in shadows, in nameless grace Unfurled by the dusking, paralyzing gaze Renegade! A soul longing to return From the chaos once called home Sovereign! Detached from every outcome Untarnished by the smoking gun [Lead - Pedro Valença] Axis and nexus of a life bred amidst lies Deceiving malice, the time is nigh Uncover the grand charade, the poisons that bind us all Enthralled by seasons still, keep guarding the nights anew Renegade! A soul longing to return From the chaos once called home Sovereign! Detached from every outcome Untarnished by the smoking gun [Lead - Fabiano Penna]
