[Lyric] Mammon and Moloch (Nequient)
For all your sanctimony Your only god is money And on profit’s altar You offer sons and daughters Mammon tempts - Moloch devours The white shroud you don Does nothing to conceal The darkening stains Of innocent blood spilled Venom of the corrupt Sipped from poisoned cup Your words ring hollow Deception proves shallow Plead your ignorance Play on...Learn MorerockNequient[Lyric] First Casualty (Nequient)
Blank stare gazes upward Don't dare speak a word The truth lies in a grave Her headstone reads fraud Facts buried alongside A decomposing God For all of our grasping At last we will now share A boundless well of shame And despair Bullshit is a sacrament Our faith writ in excrement Seduced by self-regard Weakened by vanity We will make no...Learn MorerockNequient[Lyric] Screaming Across the Sky (Nequient)
Building more efficient means To slaughter and to maim And counting down the days Until they’re turned on you States engulfed in flames And cultures drowned in blood Civilization gives way To universal terror Reaping the seeds once sown By imperial arrogance Dominance is now imposed Through rape and execution Excising thought and...Learn MorerockNequient[Lyric] Kakistocracy (Nequient)
The end of the empire Nero live-tweets the fire Lunatics take bedlam Purify the asylum Kakistocracy The power of hypocrisy Nuclear arsenal Becomes a child’s toy A world of enemies For him to destroy Turn the flock over To wolves at the door They scarcely hide Fangs stained by gore Kneel before the spray-tanned face of destruction And get over...Learn MorerockNequient[Lyric] On the Day of Execution (Nequient)
Carve another name into the memorial We watch you rot and fall In you we saw what we wished to be Brought low by mortality Carve another name into sand For another hero damned Leave behind legs of stone Gods revealed as flesh and bone No matter what you say Or allow yourself to see Death brings only your decay What you’ve been is all you’ll...Learn MorerockNequient[Lyric] Coins for the Ferryman (Nequient)
The tragic irony Jester in agony No one should die like this All those sordid stories Of drunken glories Shadowed by the abyss The chimes at midnight Now go silent Your life torn away Swift and violent Dancing on the edge Till the day you stumble Looking for sense in the chaos Can only lead to madness Narratives formed out of grief The terror...Learn MorerockNequient[Lyric] Cult of Ignorance (Nequient)
We shall rise, great once more As we were some time before Not what you say - it’s how you say it A tantrum thrown by an idiot Wear your privilege As a badge of merit Contempt for knowledge Lures the desperate Prejudices held sacred Understanding is rejected Pluck out your own eyes To see the savior’s guise As you fall into line Bring out the...Learn MorerockNequient[Lyric] Cat’s Cradle (Nequient)
Last vestiges of civilization Swallowed by self-immolation Enlightenment and inclusion Prove a vacant facade No room for doubt - just guile The confidence of the vile Insularity, xenophobia Have their day in nuclear glare Laying our cards on the table There’s no fucking cat and no cradle The bloodlust wells up again Lines are drawn in the...Learn MorerockNequient[Lyric] ROI (Nequient)
Traded my soul for a 401K Whoring myself every day I’ll write anything if you pay We’re all inundated By a flood of bullshit And I’m the one who baited The hook you bit Never thought I could Peddle falsehood Just for an easy buck But I guess I don’t give a fuck Another day wasted in this place In the mirror I see my father’s face All information...Learn MorerockNequient[Lyric] Strange Death of Kings (Nequient)
A melancholic fog Settles over your sight Draining color away From this life Strange death of poets Strange death of kings Striving toward negative capability Strange death of poets Struck at your lowest Early demise strips away all you might have been Strange death of kings Moot longing for meaning Try to justify God’s ways to man Words fail...Learn MorerockNequient[Lyric] The Devil’s Party (Nequient)
Cynicism and apathy Murder inspiration Lost in your own disguise A self-annihilation The center cannot hold A culture bought and sold There is no turning back The battle rages on Though my senses dull Still a war to be won The enemy’s always been An insurmountable force And yet we carry on Staying the course In defiance of reason A world of...Learn MorerockNequient
