  • Sacrifice is pleasure
    When life ends in pain
    Conceive the last mistake
    Which belongs to all

    Creation of insane rule
    All we hear:
    Desperate cry

    Death the coldest wind
    Seeps into your pores
    A nation born of hate
    Forgotten distant time

    Creation of insane rule
    All we hear:
    Desperate cry

    Endless empty maze
    Despair, distress and silence
    A poison vacuum, infinity
    Life, lies, deceit

    Mute souls end in silence
    Oceans tainted with blood
    Empty promises of hope
    Buried deep, infected ground

    Creation of insane rule
    All we hear:
    Desperate cry

    Cry! Writer/s: ANDREAS RUDOLF KISSER, IGOR CAVALERA, MASSIMILIANO A. CAVALERA, PAULO XISTO JR. PINTO
