Lyrics[]

 Opposition...contradiction...premonition...compromise
 Agitation...violation...mutilation...planet dies
 
 Darkest color
 Blistered earth
 True death of life
 
 Never hunger
 Never prosper
 I have fallen prey to failure
 Struggle within
 Triggered again
 Now the candle burns at both ends
 
 Halls of justice painted green
 Money talking
 Power wolves beset your door
 Hear them stalking
 Soon you'll please their appetite
 They devour
 Hammer of justice crushes you
 Overpower
 
     The ultimate in vanity
     Exploiting their supremacy
     I can't believe the things you say
     I can't believe
     I can't believe the price you pay
     Nothing can save you
 
        Justice is lost
        Justice is raped
        Justice is gone
        Pulling your strings
        Justice is done
        Seeking no truth
        Winning is all
        Find it so grim
        So true
        So real
 
 Apathy their stepping stone
 So unfeeling
 Hidden deep animosity
 So deceiving
 Through your eyes their light burns
 Hoping to find
 Inquisition sinking you
 With prying minds
 
     The ultimate in vanity
     Exploiting their supremacy
     I can't believe the things you say
     I can't believe
     I can't believe the price you pay
     Nothing can save you
 
         Justice is lost
         Justice is raped
         Justice is gone
         Pulling your strings
         Justice is done
         Seeking no truth
         Winning is all
         Find it so grim
         So true
         So real
 
 Blackened is the end
 Winter it will send
 Throwing all you see
 Into obscurity
 
 Death of Mother Earth
 Never a rebirth
 Evolution's end
 Never will it mend
 
 Never
 
     Fire
     To begin whipping dance of the dead
     Blackened is the end
     To begin whipping dance of the dead
     Color our world blackened
 
     Fire
     Is the outcome of hypocrisy
     Darkest potency
     In the exit of humanity
     Color our world blackened
 
     Blackened
