Hypocrisy - The Arrival Album Lyrics

Born Dead, Buried Alive

[lyrics by Dan Swan]

In the dimension beyond the twilight
A soul is waiting to be reborn
After a lifetime of repenting sin
A new life is about to begin

But something went wrong that fateful night
And the cosmos went berserk
A fusion of the heavens
And the sphere where the dark ones lurk

Hell grows stronger; your soul is at stake
You're granted life only to die
Dscend into the black.

Born Dead Buried Alive
Standing at the gate waiting for the dark to arrive
Born Dead Buried Alive
The army of the undead
Now possess your blackened soul

You'll never know life on earth
Doomed to forever walk the land beyond
When the final day arise, you twisted self will rise
The dead shall inherit the earth

You belong to the fires of Hades
You get your lifeblood from the river Styx
Hell in all its glory
Will forever be your dwelling place

The restless dead eagerly awaits
The day of maturity, the end of mankind
Crack the surface of the earth
And let there be hell.

Born Dead Buried Alive
Standing at the gate waiting for the dark to arrive
Born Dead Buried Alive
The army of the undead
Now possess your blackened soul

Eraser

Here it comes to subject the terror you forgot
No memories from the past
The unexplainable starts to appear
As your sub-consciousness begins to come back again

Reality fades away
You try to find a solution
Here it's coming now, indecision
You're free but you can't see through the confusion

[Chorus]
There is no time
No time to regret
The eraser's coming for your life
You got to run
Stay away from the light
The eraser's here to twist your mind

Feel your soul connected to the universe
The solstice is complete
They controlled your thoughts
You will remember now, what it's all about

Twist the end around, violation
It's burning deep and twisting under your skin
It scares you forever
The proof you will find in your dreams

[Chorus]

Stillborn

I'm standing in the circle of humans
What have we become?
I see the circles clean
I am unable to flee

I slowly arised in the sky
This is the way it feels to die
I have to search, the rest will follow
There's nothing left but my soul so hollow

[Chorus]
I'm floating in the air
Slowly fading away from the earth
I'm guessing to the never when on my way to my empty birth

I've got to stay awake
But my eyelids feels lifeless
I feel like a parasite!

What will happen to us?
Will we ever see the universe?
Will we ever return?

Do we survive?
It's a human curse!

Final destination unknown
Humanity on the go
This is the end
Another beginning

I feel so alone
Like a part of me has died
I feel so weak
I'm falling apart inside

[Chorus 2x]
I'm floating in the air
Slowly fading away from the earth
I'm guessing to the never when on my way to my empty birth

How can you decide?

I'll decide something up

They have come to haunt me now
I swallow my pride, and the tears I've cried
Will never tell the answers why!
Tell me why!

[Chorus 2x]
I'm floating in the air
Slowly fading away from the earth
I'm guessing to the never when on my way to my empty birth

Slave To The Parasites

A pain worse than anything else
or maybe I'm dead, both trapped in a cage
Alone in my body now a shell deserted or is this the end of my age
Crushed into the bitter end
Is the thing's I cannot avoid
Drowning in a circle of hell
They won't let me exist on my own

[Chorus]
Slave to the parasites
I can't get away
They won't leave me be
Slave to the parasites
Here they come again
There is nowhere to hide

Seeing my life crushed
I'm all alone
digging into my life
deadly thoughts

The night is fallen
I know they are comming around the bend
They use me as an experiment
which I don't understand

Crashed into the bitter end
Is the thing's I cannot avoid
drowning in a circle of hell..
They won't let me exist on my own

[Chorus]

They won't get me this time
I can hear them coming closer
I'm not afraid to die
But I'd rather die than someone control my mind

[Chorus]

New World

Can't you see them coming?
Cannot see the sense of me
All of them decide
Deciding our ups, downs, and misery

Addicted to fleshly skin
Enough for me to swallow and take in
Two worlds collide
One with all the: one with all!

This is the way we serve
It's deadly when it's being wiped away
Both too precious to behold
and praise the new...

[Chorus]
The new world is here to wipe out our lives
The new world we can't survive
The new world left God in everything and everyone
The new world does not include us

Everyone will feel a need to pleasure
To wicked the future race
There will be no more beliefs
All religion will be known
All religious ways
Losing their ability
They'll erase all our memories

No more scriptures
No more lies
No more fucking lies!

This is the way we serve
It's deadly when it's being wiped away
Both too precious to behold
and praise the new...

[Chorus]
The new world is here to wipe out our lives
The new world we can't survive
The new world left God in everything and everyone
The new world does not include us

God, in decay, just making all the rules
Earth, finally, forgot the tombs
Hell Is where I'll be
After my eyes can see
Preceding our, we are the misery!

Hate throughout the end of genocide
Smell of burning flesh inside all, everyone!
Death is coming down, now when we will survive
We're gonna die!
[Chorus 2x]
The new world is here to wipe out our lives
The new world we can't survive
The new world left God in everything and everyone
The new world does not include us

The Abyss

Born dead in flames
For my beliefs
They will take me to hell
One step closer to death
I release my anger to be free

Feel alone again [4x]

I feel no guilt for the lost ones
I stab, I stab again
Nothing eternal, nothing
I look around and see all the bloody gore

Feel alone again [4x]

Dead Sky Dawning

I woke up screaming from a nightmare
That seemed so real
A horrified vision of the skyline
Covered up in steel
I stumble outside, everything around me had changed
I could not believe my eyes
I stare into a world rearranged

My heart was pounding faster
Am I awake or still in a dream
The vision of final disaster
The vision of empty streams?

[Chorus]
I see a dead sky dawning
A lethal encounter of the first degree
I see a dead sky dawning
No mercy for you, No mercy for me
I see a dead sky dawning
A lethal encounter of the first degree
I see a dead sky dawning
It's the end for you, It's the end for me

The world is silent
Only the life from above can be seen
Mercy comes and blinded me
All fates creates and within for me

It' s not of this world
Our senses disappears
Something within me tells me
It's the end of humanity

My heart was pounding faster
Am I awake or still in a dream
The vision of final disaster
The vision of empty streams
Released from this nightmare
Let me wake up to find the world I knew
But then I see the things that surround me
I realize we are the chosen few

[Chorus]
I see a dead sky dawning
A lethal encounter of the first degree
I see a dead sky dawning
No mercy for you, No mercy for me
I see a dead sky dawning
A lethal encounter of the first degree
I see a dead sky dawning
It's the end for you, It's the end for me

It's the end for me
They've come to take me away
Remembered as their prey
The execution right now taking flight

[Chorus]
I see a dead sky dawning
A lethal encounter of the first degree
I see a dead sky dawning
No mercy for y ou, No mercy for me
I see a dead sky dawning
A lethal encounter of the first degree
I see a dead sky dawning
No mercy for you, no mercy for me!

The Departure

I came back to life
Naked and tied to the floor
In the corner of my eyes
I saw them coming through the door

All is black
All is white
I open my eyes and faced the airborn lights

[Chorus]
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever been

I cannot move
None of my sences respond
I prepair myself for the life beyond

And as I look around
I realize I'm all alone
The dark so wide so wasted
It chills me to the bone

Suddenly I'm rising up in the air
My mind was burning
Think not [?] about despair

I said farewell to the body they're stealing

All is black
All is white
I open my eyes and face the airborn lights

[Chorus]
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever been

[Guitar Solo]

I wish I could scream
Or fade right back into the dream
But something here just keeps me awake

And I'm cut wide open
Maybe they search for my soul
This is more than a human can take

And don't tell me I'm dreaming
I know what I saw
I'll feel alive like I've never before

[Chorus 2x]
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever been

War Within

[lyrics by Dan Swan]

When you were born, that's when I died, it took too long to realize
I am white, your black, I'm slowly turning to gray
Like a disease you break me down and cry
You're the king, I'm the fool

I'm your eternal prey.

[Chorus:]
Die! let me regain control
Die! Let me reign in my own soul
Die! Let my life return
Die! I'd do anything to see you burn!!

What I create you desecrate
Fuelled by endless hate
How can I win this war?

This war against myself?
You're the king, I'm the fool

[Chorus]
Die! let me regain control
Die! Let me reign in my own soul
Die! Let my life return
Die! I'd do anything to see you burn!!

If I decide, it's suicide inside of me
How will I know you won't follow me?

You tricked my mind, you made me blind, but I finally can see
There's no escape. Cerebral rape, you're my destiny!

You turn me on, you turn me off
Like I'm a fucking machine!
You tuck me in, you throw me out

Now all my thoughts are obscene!

[Chorus 2x]
Die! let me regain control
Die! Let me reign in my own soul
Die! Let my life return
Die! I'd do anything to see you burn!!
