Power Is Law

Separately, we dance on the wheel
You take the lead, buy, break and steal
You lead us along
You throw us away
You've blinded our sight
Step with me, cast off your demons
Set us free, return to reason
You lead us along
You throw us away
You've blinded our sight
You cut your teeth upon our broken glass hearts,
I hope it lacerates your sense of purpose? You nervous?
I'll stake my claim upon you fallen ramparts
And scorch my name into the surface, and burn it
I see fire on the horizon
Black blood flows thick
Replenishing those who thrive and
Crippling those already sick
Boots down on the fallen
Spit fire through the cracks in your teeth
Set the dogs on the peaceful
Let their blood wipe the stains from your streets
Power is law
Power is law
Power is law
Power is law
The line is drawn, each side's getting stronger
Power is law, the means that you squander
You lead us along
You throw us away
You've blinded our sight
Power is law
Power is law
Power is law

Cheap plastic, wasted aims, no future guaranteed
This ain't the life you promised me
The bullshit's piling up, there's nothing I foresee
So forego insulting pleasantries
Cheap plastic, conversations, hate just set the tone
Rubbish amassed on hollow thrones
We break our backs to reap the seeds that we have sown
So you can claim it for your own
Things worked against us from the start
Pull off the skin, expose the heart
I'd give my bones and fall apart
Still you don't want it, No! You don't need it

It's been a long time coming
Hollow days and empty hands
And now we're out and running
The black shields are on the march again
It's been a long time coming
And now one more blow to bear
I hear the hoof beats drumming
War rhythms in the urban air
Swift clubs are crushing
It's been a long time coming
It's been a long time coming
It's been a long time coming

Ancients

Something subtle in the lamp wick burning low
And how it flickers in the wind
A cool evening with the distant taste of death
When we were drowning in the din
Last breaths of the sun's rays purge away
The dying blue
Linger trails of our fading glory days,
Dug deep within the roots
A spark in the dust that floats for me
Alive in the fray
Specks swirl and dance out to take the stage
Then waft away
Breathe in the flames of our former days
And hold it while you can
Caked lungs form the caves of obsidian
Ancient temples of man
Here I am
Alive again
I'm alive again
I'm alive

Let You Die

A pebble tossed brings ruin to us all
Death is not the end, it's just a fall
What will be found when the images are lost?
And the lies, and lines are reimagined in the calm
Back to bed, and so lifted by unseen hands
Now you're led to think that you comprehend,
The boots you pulled up, were worn by another man
Who took you, friend, for your time
And every dime you had
This game that you play
Where you snatch it up and count the days
Well, there ain't nothing that you own
That will leave you alone
All that's given will be taken away
And if you cut me out
You can ask for help
And if you've fallen down
You ain't by yourself
Cause I ain't the one
Who bled you dry
And I ain't the one
To let you die

This band has already fantastic tracks on their previous albums, I already loved them when buying their album "Ancients", which I found is a little different to the others. For me, after I listened to it a bunch of times, I determined that the difference is nothing else but further development of their music art, while at the same time they still kept a pleasant portion of darkness that makes me love this album as well, maybe even more than their past tracks !!!
