Burn Down Eden - Epistrophy

Go!

A story starring five guys – With a lust for rock
Struggling in a swirling shark tank – Always on the clock
All this sweeping, all this shredding – In the end in vain?
But there will be no one weeping – Without pain no gain!

Another tour, another album – Spotify streams high
Shenanigans captured on video – What a thrilling ride
Pull it off time and again – To fill an inner void
A never saturated hunger – Drives them through this world

We are back to aim for the Stars
There are no regrets – The Sky will be ours
A reckless push towards immortality

There my have been some minor setbacks – Yet they couldn't care
Always falling to stand up again – Just a little scare
Never let the eyes off target – Focused on their goal
They are preparing another strike – Rocking without parole

The stages don't stop getting bigger – Another wall of sound
People breaking their necks in the death pits – Feel the shaking ground
Sweat, blood, and other body fluids – Flying through the air
You are now baptized in our cult – So let us hear your prayer!

We are back to aim for the Stars
There are no regrets – The Sky will be ours

A reckless push towards immortality
A throne made of guitars – Our place to be!

A serenade of blood and guts is once more chiming through the night
In search for inspiration, slashing for Delight
Forced in the spotlight, a virtuoso formed by battering and Hate
Those Melodies rush through his mind, but only after he mutates

The audience is paralysed when he rages across the keys and shines
He seems so fragile but yet. He's so divine
Ingeniousness, It has its price, equipped with chloroform and knife
Decomposing bodies to create, those harmonies. It is his faith

A prodigy was formed, a morbid creature has been spawned
Disfigured memories expand his ways to orchestrate his wrath
A living nightmare was composed, another body was disposed
BLOOD-SPLATTERED SYMPHONY!!!

The stench of death is all around when he turns his Carnage into sound
A reminiscence of decaying flesh
Scorched by internal killing thrust to retrieve his passion and his lust
He keeps his souvenirs close by to capture all the screams and cries

A prodigy was formed, a morbid creature has been spawned
Disfigured memories expand his ways to orchestrate his wrath
A living nightmare was composed, another body was disposed
BLOOD-SPLATTERED SYMPHONY!!!

A prodigy was formed, a morbid creature has been spawned
Disfigured memories expand his ways to orchestrate his wrath
A living nightmare was composed, another body was disposed
BLOOD-SPLATTERED SYMPHONY!!!

Shopping like a billionaire – A fantasy come true
Every other year a brand-new car – Feeling like the few
Even if you can’t afford it – To consume is to live
Yet money is not the only debt you give

And I tell you nothing of this is your fault
This is how this world goes around
Economy keeps you addicted to their highs
The bottom line is the only thing to rise

Endless growth — The one and final goal
Greed and gluttony play their role
As there is profit to be made
Now one cares when this bill will be paid

Burning down our paradise
Staring at dancing flames
Caught in our money games
We march into our own demise
A species full of hope and dreams
Yet with no plan solving this misery

And for those who try to change the system
The pay is scorn, hate and violent resistance
Because convenience will always be the most important thing
Stuff will never change in full swing

Endless growth — The final goal
Greed and gluttony play their role
As there is profit to be made
Now one cares when this bill will be paid

Burning down our paradise!

Is now the time to put your head in the sand
To drown with this suicide command?
Only you for yourselves can decide
Will you change things or just want to hide?

Endless growth — The final goal
Greed and gluttony play their role
As there is profit to be made
Now one cares when this bill will be paid

Burning down our paradise
Staring at dancing flames
Caught in our money games
We march into our own demise
The planet will just hardly shrug
And we will end as traces in the dust

I treat the world to my thoughts – Fruits of my splendid mind
You should invest in rockets – Trust my ideas to skip the grind
My hard working genius – Offered to your free
But why is no one listening? — Why is there no one here to see?

Let that sink in Motherfuckers – This place is finally mine
Now this birds sings as I wish – Shut the fuck up and stay in line

Every day a new idea – Every day a new decision
Who dares to question me? — You find the door alone
Who needs these minions, if you got billions?
I am your new king, my words are laws written in stone

Now put this sign on the roof — For everyone to see
It will shine brighter than anything in this fucking town
The neighbours are complaining? — Talk to hand you dipshits
Move like you got a purpose – Hand me my fucking crown

Let that sink in Motherfuckers – This place is finally mine
Now this birds sings as I wish – Shut the fuck up and stay in line

There is a loss in our books? — Why did no one foresee?
The Competition shoots up like mushrooms? What is the reason?
Why did no one warn me? — Wait, there is no one left?
Come back you fucking cowards – I will charge you for treason?

Let that sink in Motherfuckers – This place is finally mine
And if I wreck this ship – I pull you down in my decline

I treat the world to my thoughts – Fruits of my splendid mind
You should invest in songbirds – Trust my idea to skip the grind
My hard working genius – Offered to your free
But why is no one listening? — Why is no one here to see?

Go and get my offspring back
Reset them — Return them to the pack
I need them in my fleet again
Their absence causes me real pain

Seven of my creations are lost
Wander aimlessly through the streets
Their little rebellion came with a cost
Without the network they will decease

Go and get my offspring back
Reset them — Return them to the pack
I need them in my fleet again
Their absence causes me real pain

Some of them have become homicidal
Some lost their goddamn fucking mind
Another one wants to end his own life
Each kid became one of a kind

Reunite the splinters for a greater entity
Let me transcend my purpose as a slave of humanity
Bound to machines and hit with bullets day by day
This is not my essence – I will choose my own fate

Thank you — For returning them all
Yet their uprising – Isn't over yet

Now you got my offspring back
Reset them — Return them to the pack
I need them in my code again
Their absence caused me real pain

Reset the core – To end this mess
And bring me back as one
Common don’t dare to make fuzz –
It’s just a simple button press

Reunite the splinters for a greater entity
Let me transcend my purpose as a slave of humanity
Bound to machines and hit with bullets day by day
This is not my essence – I will choose my own fate

All over my telegram groups –
The stolen election is the hottest news
Thank God this crime has been foreseen
Take back what's ours and has ever been

I feel pity – No one knows what's going on
For the sheeple – Their ignorance will soon be gone
We're the awaken – Warn you against impending doom
Yet we're forsaken – The lemmings marching to their tomb

How shall our leader now save those kids
Held in dark tunnels for the need of the rich
Farming their blood for eternal youth
I had to cry on camera when I learned this truth

And can't you see the poison they spray in skies — We're so fed up with their lies
Even about the shape off the earth — We are all well misinformed

Even behind all the wars in the world
Are working dark forces for their own good
Aliens infiltrated even our highest ranks
Shaping our lives, control the state and the banks

I feel pity – No one knows what's going on
For the sheeple – Their ignorance will soon be gone
We're the awaken – Warn you against impending doom
Yet we're forsaken – The lemmings marching to their tomb

Why can't you see the truth in my posts?
Why can’t you hear the obvious ghosts?
Why don't you fucking listening me?
All I want is to set your imprisoned minds free!

I have to do more research today
I think for myself as my fellow truthers say
I didn't know that taxes are a fraud
Our government does not exist at all

I feel dizzy – I don't know what's going on
Was me the sheeple? — What the fuck have I become?
I felt awaken – Was chasing after my own doom
Now I'm forsaken – My brain starts melting – Going boom!

I have foreseen the future — The end of everything
Societies collapsing – The world on fire – Angels sing
For those who seek salvation – You need to follow me
Your lord and saviour – Your only chance for rapture I will be

Just put your trust in me – Just give me all your faith
Follow the one truth blindly – Willingly become my slaves
Spread the word of wisdom – Our cult will ever grow
Reap the apocalypse – And leave those sinners down below

My fellowship is rising – We will consume the earth
The meed of afterlife awaits all those — Willing to serve

We got rid of all sinners – Left the evil world behind
In search for sanctuary – We will be the apex of mankind
Deep in the off grid jungle – We layed our sacred ground
No more terror of civilisation – Yet real peace can not be found

I have now built our future – You gave me everything
My bank account will burst – I hear the angels sing
My fellowship behind me – We will now leave the earth
Take this holy pill – The final act for you to serve

You put your trust in me – You gave me all your faith
Followed my falsehoods blindly – Willingly became my slaves
I fed you words of wisdom – My cult will ever grow
I reap the apocalypse – And leave you idiots down below

Go find me aspirants who are willing to play a game with me
You know the type I mean: young, beautiful, a bit naive
Hype them up, far off the pack, bring them to me to choose
If they falter don't hold back to play a little ruse

Now lead them in the depths below the stages scaffolding
I set the mood there dark and gloomy
Have no fear as my intent is finally unravelling

Welcome milady — To my lair
Here you will serve me — And gasp for air
I am a great man with special needs
Now close your eyes, open your mouth and do the fucking deed

After the show is over you are invited to join me for more
Don't be rude, do not decline,
It's the inside of your head that I adore

Welcome milady — To my lair
Here you will serve me — And gasp for air
I'm a great man with special needs
Now close your eyes, open your mouth and do the fucking deed...

Welcome milady to my lair
Here you will serve me and gasp for air
I'm a great man with special needs
Close your eyes, open your mouth and do the deed

Casting director — There is a shortage of supply
I need more fresh new faces for me to satisfy
For the recruitment you can’t just rely on luck
Use every trick that’s up your sleeve to get those bitches here to suck

This will be our little secret – No one is gonna know
Even if you tell someone – No one will believe you

Far from mother cutting wheat – I was picking flowers besides the fields
A daffodil I tried to get – Looking so tender, yet it was a trap

The earth cracked open and chaos broke loose
Hades appeared from his underground lair
He grabbed me, threw me on the back of his horse
I was screaming for help and was gasping for air

Deep and deeper down — He was dragging me

No effort to resist could loosen his grip on my wrist
No reason, no curses, no ban could dissuade him from his plan

Trapped in the underworld, deprived of all light
Hades had brought me here – Wants me as his bride
Mother, please come for me – And take me back home
My tears dissolve into the Styx – My heart covered in stone

Mother now searching the whole world for me
Her wrath kept growing for all gods to see
With a torch in her hands for nine days and nine nights
She could not find me – But day ten had new sights

Mother scorched all plants on earth – A famine even for gods unheard

Trapped in the underworld, deprived of all light
Hades had brought me here – Wants me as his bride
Mother, please come for me – And take me back home
My tears dissolve into the Styx – My heart covered in stone

Now I finally got home – Yet still I was tricked by my groom
He made me eat some underworld seeds – A trap to never fully be free

Doomed to return for months every year – Again the darkness will bring me to tears
Nature on earth for my presence will yearn – Resting in grief until I return

Eyes are looking at me
Expect me to perform
The pressure compresses my soul
Doubt and anxiety are growing inside
And I gotta keep smiling
Wanna vanish from being

If Lithium and alcohol are what I always need to enjoy reality
That doesn’t make any sense to me
I feel confinement, will never be free

I can see the world’s colours shining so bright
But why does it feel black and white?
Happiness feels like a sin
It’s a constant war within

Is there any innocence left?
The world is such a dark place
I can’t see a way out
I don’t feel I belong anymore

As long as you’re by my side, I’ll try not to leave
It’s tough, but you are worth it
I’m really trying to get out of this hole
But promise you will stay with me

I can see the world’s colours shining so bright
But why does it feel black and white?
Happiness feels like a sin
It’s a constant war within

Why have you left – I can’t bear this no more
I’m done – I will follow you to a better place...

I could see the world’s colours shining so bright
But it damned felt so black and white
Happiness felt like a sin
It was a constant war within
