Violence
running time: 03:14
In the mind of mortal man The vision is tainted red Consumed by anger, provoked by words That should never been said Now all this mind seems to harbor are misplaces aggressions Once released, they will seek Reaping the sadistic intentions In this time and age that maintains no aspect of order Hard to see are these lines in which many souls border Visual assistance show life as a harsh reality The bitter effect produced not approved by society Read the words, hear Christ speak Refrain from anger, revert the cheek Withheld in compassion, not signs of the weak Seek humility for blessed are the meek

Internal Unrest
running time: 05:25
Internal unrest, emotional decline Cruelly overbearing, will confined Future uncertain, past regrets Temporal pain, not easy to forget Mangled thoughts irrational actions Overwhelmed amidst confusion Cry for hope total despair Reaching out who will care Emotions will ascend by divine intervention Oppressive misery on the brink of extinction Oppressive misery irrational actions Overwhelmed amidst confusion Emotions will ascend by divine intervention Mangled thoughts on the brink of extinction

Second Death / Obstruction
running time: 09:24
Second Death Ending all of life beginning of death Soul has been lost taken last breath Descent to darkness life forever left Imprisoned awaiting the second death Incarcerate in a solid rock cell Facing the reality the present hell Absolute darkness one of isolation Soul of the lost with will of separation Rejected God intentionally unaware Voluntary placement for this eternal nightmare Losing grip of sanity mind goes insane Loneliness of death creeps in to reign Vile stench begins to fill the air Demons gather with a hideous glare Assembled to inflict verbal torment Reminded of salvation seeds forever dormant Now seeing through their black lies Realization of eternity bleeds into cries Sneering and chanting manifesting on the walls Interrupted torture by the great one who calls Transformed to the great white throne Standing before God yet still alone He releases the love that won't be received Convicted now but too late to believe Laid out for all his perfect will And ignorant life remains unfulfilled Obstruction Being held fast by the cords of affliction Subjected to mental infiltration Conceived thought compromise obtained Appealing to desires fatal if remain Afflicted spirits Under the authority Christ proclaimed Obstruction cease to be Depraved aphrodisia wars against the soul Fulfilling strategies of complete control From the deep prcess of a darkened mind Twistedly emerge images of this kind Legions of the air on this journey they lead Obsession inspired nurtures dormant Trouble is presented by an unjust gain Selfish ambitions that were plotted in vain crucifyd - Second Death and Obstruction separate on subsequent re-issues

Walls of Separation
running time: 04:15
Not a mere perception, an acquaintance Conscious of sin, access to repentance Acquitted through faith by justification God through Christ brings reconciliation Divided in universal guilt Under condemnation Proceed to the doors of mercy Through the walls of separation Contrary to will a force ever present Oral instinct condemns by strong intent Freed from the law that sin enslaved Nature of man, power is depraved Exertion will not provide atonement Man can escape the impending judgement Fulfilled the purpose, designed to accomplish Invoking Christ as Lord none shall perish

Phargx Imas
running time: 03:55
There is a voice that has gone forth Proclaiming "Vengeance it is mine" Prophetic truth sure to come In the fullness of this time Salvation produced the acquired Absence for who had the belief The unfortunate now remain In an endless search for relief The Lord's wisdom and his Strength they utterly forsake Insecurity of the darkness disaster will overtake Falling unexpectedly never to withhold Sudden Destruction, final separation Fall of the wicked foretold Harvest of the earth now takes place Divine authority to remove the disgrace Permission given the sickle is swung Gathered together in the press they're slung With great wickedness the vats overflow Rising high, simulation of the flood Return to ruin valley of blood

No Grave Concern
running time: 04:47
The administration of a mystery Death beingswallowed up in victory From the grave the soul is redeemed Death cannot entangle as it may have seemed Christ's purpose and grace is disclosed Being declared since the day he arose From dwelling silence there is immunity Annulling death he brought immortality Instead of sorrow if the soul does yearn Remain being filled with comfort having no grave concern Not left abandoned in a grave of despair Having turned from death away from the snare Absence from body presence with the lord Faithfulness reaping a righteous reward

Dealing with Ignorance
running time: 05:15
There is no justice in their path The way of peace is not decerned Mention Christ in effect Stubbornly cacks will turn Void of knowledge declining to understand Scraps of information forcing knowledge ot expand Dealing with ignorance Realize patience through observing the tolerant Exercise gentleness toward those who are ignorant Dealing with ignorance Despising wisdom fools mock Show them mercy mixed with fear Renew a mind dull inform Never seeming insincere With comprehension mystery are revealed Value of the truth away once concealed Truthful witness they persecute Whispers petitions in warfare Exposing requirements of the lord For the ignorant to be award No search is needed for what is found Abstract theories hodling no position to what is sound

The Prodigal
running time: 03:44
Around their necks is tied a millstone With sin the little ones were overthrown Their sincere minds were led astray Distracted by pure devotion to Christ way A spirit is now at work in the disobedient Neglected are the words of encouragement Memories of forgiveness fade into oblivion Casting themselves down into corruption Continual indulgence in the spirit of impurity Blinding their eyes from the truth of reality The Lord is aware of their futile thoughts Occupying the bones envy slowly rots For season their conspiracy goes unseen but with Immoral actions it's revealed unclean Shamefully fall short of the expectations Disgrace sets in with deep conviction Whosoever covereth the errors of this path Covers over multitude sin and death wrath To public discrace Christ is constrained Not by the ones who have faithfully remained But for the lost brought back he will rejoice Answering the cry of the still small voice

Anorexia Spiritual
running time: 04:39
Insufficient supplication communion is abstained Weary is the spirit as consideration drains The duty of seeking peace is not being pursued Plenty was promised agreement misconstrued No obedience toward Christ every thought not held captive Though possessing unfailing love these ways are disruptive Appointed to bring the faith silent with desires Unfaithful words oppress what the lord requires Plans fail for a lack of council but many have advice Resenting their correction exceed boundaries of the wise Anorexia spiriatual unnoticed as it seems Delivered by an adocate to justify its means Walls of protection agreed to be contructed Now begin to fall as wisdom is being abducted Seeds have been cast falling on unfertile ground Tolerating what is what is wrong conflict dies abound Up against the knowledge of God arguments and pretension Obedience fully secured and complete in submission Elude those to assemble no to associate Hidden is distress established able to dominate Recipient of atrocity misfortune can arrive Ushering in the presence only pacifies Having the inermost being, subjecting it to starvation A return to endurance prompted by this demonstration
