Digital Warfare

|

VERSE 1:
Finally bloodshed, the battle has begun
The resting is finished and waiting has been done
A month, maybe two in reminiscence and prayer
The loading has ended for digital warfare
Slayer_of_Virgins and Kevin_98
We share the same side and are bounded in our fate
For the entire decade or ten minutes at least
We fight side by side while we’re looting the deceased
REFRAIN:
Have you ever felt anguish
For all the pixels you shot?
They’re dead!
And never see the day
Until they respawn
To kill you right away
Have you ever felt remorse for
All commands you execute
To gain
Predominance and might over
Fabricated foes and
Monotonous sunlight
VERSE 2:
With bullets in our guns and our polygonic brains
We have a flag to steal and positions to sustain
„Fight till you die“, our heraldic device
And if we die again, one fight will not suffice
Hours on the field an eternity for most
Some will starve to death while captive to their post
Not the first concern with our spirit for the fights
Cause capable opponents bear arms entire nights
[ REFRAIN ]
Wired up
Virtual gear
Slaying everyone
But still no damage has been done
[ ½ REFRAIN ]

Intro of Light

Master of Light
05:58
|
|||
VERSE 1:
With torment wreaking arms to wield
Or blazes set by words of fierce
They feast upon your weakened soul
To strengthen their self-serving needs
Anguish and pain you feel
Exploited, trapped and victimized.
With blood and your own dignity
You pay the price just to stay alive
VERSE 2:
You once had prospect, had a chance
To rise in your proficiency
Just to see this light extinguished
By a single blow of fate
Beaten to all extent
Concealed and undetectable
When all the world’s indifference
Eventually will seep into you
REFRAIN:
A shine of light
A moment of fate
I solemnly grant you the chance
To unfold yourself
Master of light is what I am called
So you’re not alone
You will restore hope
And serenity you’ll find
Break the chains
You have forged; they are just in your
Head; you won’t regret
Leave all pages blank
Waste your ink not for
Me; Just you will see for yourself
Claim your dreams
No one else can take them
Away; can’t go astray
Resisting storm and time
Steel-forged deep in your
Mind; And meant to be carried along
VERSE 3:
The feeling of security
You once possessed, but now it’s gone
A shelter built from past adventures
Broken by subsequent greed
Teared off with no remorse
Whole districts razed down to the ground
Your history, each soul you knew
Has lost their life to the flames of war
[ REFRAIN ]

Modular Cowboy
05:19
|
|||
VERSE 1.
Armed with my plasma lasso
Dressed in boots of chrome
Strength of a thousand marksmen
Planted in my brain
For fear of the insurrection
Governments will face
My prototype was made from blueprints,
Cells and history
VERSE 2.
Justice is not made with prisoners
Victory not with grace
My quest demands to skip the talk
And cut rebellious heads
Raise your torch and pitchfork, people,
Anything they haven’t taken
Won’t help you take
Revenge on power and command
REFRAIN:
I ride and I kill
Under the flag of law and state
I seek and destroy
All resisting peace of shit
My Quantum Horse
And my fusion-powered boots
Make me the sheriff’s star’s envoy
I’m the modular cowboy
VERSE 3:
Need an upgrade, need repair?
Spare parts will soon be brought
And artificial intellect
Improves itself on spot
If not already starved to death
My sensors spot on sight
Your highly foolish coup attempt
Retreat before you fight
But something downcast
Something new, something unfamiliar
Sensed within me
Within my form of existence
Feelings have never
Been part of my AI
Designed just to kill
This has to be a malfunction
1:
Research detects
Perception of injustice
Desperate fates lead to
Desperate reactions
2:
I know why these people starve
Robbed down to their bones
Did not keep any copper coin, linen cloth
Humans will claim
Their pursuit
Of their deserved happiness
REFRAIN:
I ride and I kill
Under the flag of law and state
I seek and destroy
All resisting peace of shit
My Quantum Horse
And my fusion-powered boots
Make me the sheriff’s star’s envoy
I’m the formula of…
Strongest gun of…
Greatest weapon,
Modular cowboy

Wolga the Troll
04:10
|
|||
VERSE 1:
Coolest troll on schoolyard, is he smiling in my way?
Nervous by the sight of his so perfectly crooked teeth
Now he’s walking towards me and I shiver in awe
Just to tell me I do not even smell
Why can’t I just stink like normal trolls
Why can’t I just squint
No disgust and no repellent smell
Will never make me popular
VERSE 2:
My way to respect and to acknowledgement starts now
Grease put on my hair will make it shine like the sun
With self-confidence and new scruffy appearance
He won’t decline my prom night invite
He just declined my prom night invite
How can I ever be a happy troll
Everyone will make out on the graduation dance
Time for another sad poem from my pen
Why can’t I just stink like normal trolls
Why can’t I just squint
No disgust and no repellent smell
Will never make me popular
REFRAIN:
Beautiful
I’m filled with disillusion
Hurt comes from the pain
And thought intrusion
Cast out
My soul is bleeding
No fulfillment left
In proceeding
Grieved by the shallow and ugly
Our Wolga bails into the deepest woods
Her gorgeous image on the water’s skin
The sole observer while she soaks her pain
[ REFRAIN ]
But savior’s arms offering a chance
To breathe again, no moment too soon
A nobleman, a knight from the men
With long blonde hair, with arms of strength
His blue eyes never had the chance
To witness beauty like hers
Once their glances started to meet
It fell from her eyes just like scales:
He doesn’t really meet her needs

Whitejack
05:02
|
|||
VERSE 1:
Risen to tremendous wealth
From famine and starvation
The year was 1682
Still a man of reputation
Countless attempts they had
To steal and rob my treasure
Point of my gun, the last they see
With grief and great displeasure
VERSE 2:
But treacherous foes
Bring treacherous strife
The bride of mine with stunning grace
My beloved wife lacked any trace
This fateful night
All that was found
Were skull and crossbones directing
My course to vengeance and revenge
VERSE 3:
Forming my company
Bringing to sea my galleon
With loaded guns and sharpened knives
They won’t expect what’s coming
Out to the open sea
No tempest will detain us
No enemy will hold us back
No drawback too tremendous
REFRAIN:
Raise our flag,
Our banner, our distinctive mark
This is our whitejack
A pirate’s greatest mare of night
Raise our flag,
Our banner, our distinctive mark
This is our whitejack
Our dignity, our foes’ demise
VERSE 4:
Drown their lead-filled chests
Feed parrots to the sharks
Ships, like scales they burn
Prey to gun powder’s marks
Slay the enemy
No mercy for no spine
As long as this pack keeps
Imprisoned what is mine
Sail across the open sea
Sail where the wind will lead
Seek all scum wipe out their kin
No remorse until she’ll be freed
Show no fear, hoist the flag
In reverence our whitejack shines
Terrified on banner’s sight
Clearly distinguished from other ensigns
Halt all thoughts of turning round or cancellation
Bear in mind our purpose that keeps us unsoiled
Never stop until our quest is finally over
No relicts of pirate scum shall ever remain
Seek all cells for prisoners’ clues
Seek for my valentine
She can’t be far, just run down the next
If left alive, she’ll again be mine
Soon, my love, we’ll reunify
Saved from the enemies’ hands
Past and future changeless bliss
On familiar grounds and notorious lands
Thousand days and nights have passed
Everyman but me has gone
I will never end my duty
I will never...

Just Pirates
06:34
|
|||
VERSE 1:
Feasts of abundance and greed
Decadence at the expense of deceit
Started as groom and bride’s every pride
We both live our insincere lives side by side
Once a graceful bride full of love
I have to quit my life I am not proud of
Skull and crossed bones my ensign will be
And out to the open ocean I’ll flee
REFRAIN:
Yo ho and cheers to our pack
Our fates draw us beyond the sea
Yo ho just never sail back
Pirates is what we will be
VERSE 2:
Spare the penniless, steal from the fat
Rob all their stallions, leave them a rat
Share with the poor, keep some extra gold
So in hard times it’s not your damn hat being sold
Prune the world of dictator’s hands
Teach them a lesson in making amends
Better bid fast farewells to the grieved
Cause robbing a bank is still badly perceived
Night,
Stormy night
Drowning men
Crushing masts
Bury all our hopes
Waves, whipping waves
All our despair
All our conquest will sink into oblivion
Pray!
Brothers, pray
What we’ve done
Can’t be sinful
Our reprievation waits
Keep your faith
Hold on tight
Our quest can’t be over just tonight
VERSE 3:
Side by side with driftwood and waif
Hearts in our chests, Rags left to chafe
Got rid of apparently every theft
It will take time to dig out what is left
Last day of our sunken ship’s log
We wondrously found this left-behind cog
By all accounts it has recently sailed
With a captain and crew that have obviously
bailed
[ 2x REFRAIN ]
Everyman, anchors aweigh!
Hoist the flag and full speed ahead!
With tailwind over our heads
We pillage in the shadows
Of a new dawn with our new flag
On our mast a Jolly Roger
Shining white as left behind
[ REFRAIN ]

Parasitic Confession
05:49
|
|||
VERSE 1:
You shine, a light to lead your way
You bathe in abundance and delight
You left all riddles there to solve
Behind your path to inner peace
VERSE 2:
Your heart designed to keep one firm
A shame if it someday stopped to beat
You are an angel in disguise
Your wings assured, will suit me well
REFRAIN:
More flesh
Just give me your flesh
Under your skin
I long for more
You feel me
But cannot see me
In your sickness
I shall become you
VERSE 3:
Your thoughts have never dared to touch
The bare exposure of my breath
Your shine is merely prey to me
In your lightheartedness I shall rise
VERSE 4:
Hope now lingers in the dark
And soon consumes your inner peace
I perchance turn out to be
The riddle you once have missed to solve
REFRAIN:
More flesh
Just give me your flesh
Under your skin
I long for more
You feel me
But cannot see me
In your sickness
I have become you

The Eye of Bastet
06:20
|
|||
VERSE 1:
A stone wall carven with figures
Bordered by trees reaching to heaven
My temple in the vast expanse
Of endless sand and boundless sun
Is what I call my home
VERSE 2:
Instructed by my sacred wisdom
The doctrines to my loyal minions
Teach them to use their fur and whiskers
To muck around with owner humans
Or how it scolds itself
REFRAIN:
Rise with feline dignity and
Face your human serf
We used to call them “servants”
They used to call us “chief”
But behold of what is left
Appeased by tuna and cans of debasement
You must find your feline pride (again)
Your ancestors had temples, memorials and busts
You do tricks and chase around
Your home to catch red dots
VERSE 3:
A Hôdra vase of greatest value
An amphore filled with tastiest wine
Won’t retain structure nor their contents
If they keep standing on the edge
Outbraving claws and paws
VERSE 4:
Perfectionism is your heirloom
And elegance your every move
So any unwise to caress
You for too short or for too long
Will feel your clawy wrath
[ REFRAIN ]
She of the ointment jar
Fierce lioness and goddess of the sun
There to protect and to be feared
And even catched the crimson dot
