Raga 17:33
crush, break, kill, take young boy lost youth you took from me crush fear with love och forgives all hate breeds death one last war one more time
2.
Salvation 27:29
spirits have i, spirits have we, shadows reach, abyssal stare strangle me, frame froze scream, astral winds howl fear grows, mangle screams poison, let go, free wake up
3.
War Song 21:18
my sight cleansed right? red blue white light rear view mirror, sweat drip forehead licence barks pig cop take all rights fight for dead lives cop steal life for pride feel shame it's not right, no peace, die my skin, death warrant, confuse my fear for weakness, your wrong dead wrong war freedom
4.
Requiem 24:04
father, my hero, this is for us, swallow my hardest, this is a must, separate my body, you said to be tough, walk on my own path you said it'd be rough, our paths are crossing, ive become a pest, because im a man im doing my best, you said i was weak, you told me to leave, my heart is breaking, i have noone left, confided in drugs, mead and sex, empty passions, dying inside, lost all my friends family and pride in our past, heart in cast, soft, fake dirt bag, cream puff, not man abuse
