lyrics

All I hear when I wake up
The morphine drip of a peaceful hum
Rings in my ears like the siren song
Of a failed state

With values professed
Provided to us through myth
By our masters of limitless power and prowess
Never coming to terms with their impotence

In face of a crisis who could've seen this?
Values wasted on sleek entertainment
Cruelty marks the zenith of all meaning and communication
So let's celebrate it

You won't see me lower the flag
When our day finally comes
I'll burn it to bits for its embers
To keep me warm
I'm done bargaining for what's mine
Fooled to prove my worth and right to survive
I pray for the day we can all agree
To stop hoping and start burning

I've gotten myself into GR by first getting their last album, then decided to give this one a go too. Atoms divide, life decays, seems we are into nuclear explosions here, that is how GR feels, a powerful and fast blitz and stormy riffs and groovy hardcorish - thrashy blasts. Highly recommended for all thrash lovers out there. Toxic Holocaust does come in mind, true that, Wraith, Municipal Waste fans should love this ! sachavonkarl74
