Children condemned to a life of misery Full of hardships and frustrations Their dreams are nailed to the Heavy cross of ignorance No one has the right to transmit ignorance to their Sons Cursed are those who sow the seeds of ignorance! No one has the right to condemn children to dearth life Cursed are those who spread the seeds of misery! Feeling the hatred and resentment Rising from hunger and despair Suffering the damnation of poverty The source of violence and crimes Children in a life of misery With no way out or redemption Watching their desires from the distance That will never become reality (Solo Diego)
2.
Here we are… Exhausted in this hollow times Converted in an opaque and static larvae As addicted as I am, You were swallowed by this void That controls the world. Look at the horror that we are, Sculpted in our mistakes We drink from this shocking truth To temporarily heal us (Solo Diego) You know well That whoever that bites his memories Shudders in his own ashes Who dares to ask for forgiveness? Who has the power to forgive? Who would not give it all to escape from their faults? Look at the horror that we are, Our skin is marked by withered thorns We stumble, searching weakly We bite in the dark this bitter nonsense

Thirty-two Children died incinerated inside a bus Harrowing screams of despair and terror Of Innocent creatures burning alive A horrible and painful disaster A little child is on the news now He’s a survivor of this tragedy Spectators exclaim in ecstasy He is Alive…It´s a Miracle! A fucking miracle! Imbeciles Believers For victims it’s not a fucking miracle! A woman walking in a desolate path A ragged man comes to her dangerously His malevolent intentions are evident But suddenly the man flees terrified This Woman testifies it was a miracle She claims she was protected by an angel I Wonder: Where were the fucking angels Of hundreds of children killed by The Beast? A fucking miracle! (Solo Diego)
4.
A curious paradox The species that denies The theory of which it is evidence Imperfect evolution process The struggle for survival isn´t required now Weak individuals are not threatened The development of intelligence Isn’t essential to be a successful human being Homo No-Sapiens Missing link between primate and human being Homo No-Sapiens Trained to suppress his animal instincts (Solo Diego) Degradation of life process Imperfectly evolved hominids Instinctive adaptation has been degraded Involution of natural selection Biological criteria for subsistence Has changed its patrons
5.
A dying man that dreams with a moment of life A tormented soul that yearn for an instant of peace The pain reminds us its omnipresence The happiness is so fragile The pain reminds us its omnipresence The ignominious essence of this life A creature in chains that misses the feeling of freedom That seeks a breath for this life of disgrace Like a stealthy hunter that is lurking in the Darkness That waits for the moment for his lethal blow Like a merciless goddess with no sense of justice Disgrace destroys all our illusions

The Voices 04:18
I have my brother’s blood in my hands Last night I killed him with a machete Now the repentance is so much But the whispers are already gone I finally managed to stop The Voices! Don’t judge me! Don’t blame me! You don’t understand! I couldn’t sleep... I couldn’t live Until I understood that I should Obey the voices to achieve peace I turn on the TV… I see the people order me Kill your brother! I turn on the radio… I hear the voices order me Kill your brother! I run and run but I feel hands clutching me Kill your brother! The voices always whispered… Kill your brother! (Solo David)
7.
Catharsis 04:19
In a catatonic state that involves this life I don´t find catharsis to exorcise my mind Of those torments, wandering demons Who enjoy and laugh with my lethargy Catharsis I don´t find Catharsis! To exorcise my mind Insensible to the atrocious and curious for depravity The needles that I nail in my body Can´t bring to life the goddess in coma, Neither exhume the demon from his sordid tomb
8.
The last moment of your life There are no fears There is no love and ties don´t exist Only an escape from reality What did you think at the last moment, my dear friend? What scenes crossed your mind before you surrendered to emptiness? I can´t judge your decision, Even though it hurts in my heart The repulsion for this existence “We were born in a wrong place” (Solo David) (Solo Diego)
9.
Millions of species coexisting in equilibrium Until dominant species evolved Millions of years of slow evolution Threatened by absurd anthropocentric ideas Mother Nature I appeal to your great wisdom Exterminate The Plague! Mother Nature save your creatures, eliminate the cancer Exterminate The Plague! Loathsome organisms whose lack of intelligence Threat the survival of all living things Like carcinogenic cells that reproduce without control This damn species grows up destroying all (Solo Vlad) (Solo Adrian)
