1. The Collector
Collecting all your pieces
The fourteen parts of you
I seek, I find and take
Collector
I am a part of all existence
(Ra)
Through you, I've seen a god to suffer
(Ra)
My search revolves around his tomb
Revolting aggression
His body parts were scattered
(Ra)
Curse his enemy
The snake with no mercy
The backstabbing thief
Among the dead I see you
Osiris, strangely new
One gain
One loss
Inside a tree, your covered grave
A king surrounded by decay
Deformed
Betrayed
I'm searching for the pieces
The fourteen parts of you
Observing
Perceiving
Reforming
Collector
Collector
I'm searching for your pieces
The scattered parts of you
Perceiver
Retriever
A strange kind of spider is waving a web
So if I mend your pieces
Can I become like you?
A god men believe in and worship
Collector
Collecting all your pieces
The fourteen parts of you
I seek, I find and take
Collector
So if I mend your pieces
Can I become like you?
A god men believe in and worship
Collector

3. Self-Eater
Stand before me (Stand before me)
Before me (Before me)
Illumination you desire
Confront your fear (Confront your fear)
Your fear, the fear of lurking death
The great despair
The blows of fate are merciless
So hard, they hit existence
You made me
I'm your creation
You made me
I'm your salvation
Life, death, fear
I am the clock of time
That drains the life of mortals
They fear me
They feed me
I have a wide and hollow mouth
Fight and prevail
Embrace the path within
The triple crown
The crown of your destiny (Destiny)
The painful ecstasy
Remove your final seal
Become a new man
Shed, now, your present skin
(Confront your fear) Confront your fear
(Your fear) Your fear of lurking death
The great despair
Fight and prevail
Embrace the path within
The triple crown
The crown of your destiny
Fight and prevail
Become a new man
Bathe with the blood of the sun
Fight and prevail
Embrace the path within
The wand of fantasy
The gift of dreaming
Fight and prevail
Embrace the path within
Become a new man
Bathe with the blood of the sun
4. Neuromancer
You walk the fields of no land
The system is your stage
An error, a virus
A structure by mistake
A force that works in shadows
In fateful ways, you act
Your mission, a reason
To touch your other half
Some reach the skies and live forever
As gods, they rule inside a server
You've seen the truth behind false morals
In altered states, perception matters
Neuromancer
Your body lies in place
Neuromancer
Ascent to cyberspace
A force that works in shadows
In fateful ways, you act
Your mission, a reason
To touch your other half
Before you are gone, you stand defiant
Placing your faith in neuroscience
A thread of hope, the spark inside you
A cold console is there beside you
Neuromancer
Your body lies in place
Neuromancer
Ascent to cyberspace
5. Coming Storm
There is no hope
You are so catastrophic
A flaw of nature, a menace, a bomb device
You are unjust believers
A violating law
This is my final warning, no escape from the cold, from the fear, the storm
A crowd terrified
Divided by fear
Fear
There is no hope
You are so catastrophic
And your defenders are preachers, the stubborn heads
A selfish ecosystem
Addicted to control
This is my final warning, no escape from the cold, from the fear, the storm
A crowd terrified
Divided by fear
Fear
Fear
I am the hand that feeds you
I am the one that kills you
Don't ask me why I won't prevent you from committing suicide
Storm
Storm
You are the last believers
Who violates the law
This is my final warning, you can't fight, you can't win, you can't stop the weather
I am the hand that feeds you
I am the one that kills you
Don't ask me why I won't prevent you from committing suicide
Our nature was our killer
We fought inside
We fought our pride
A storm with great rage (And now we seek a healer)
With warmth inside
To cure our pride
Blinded by hate (The coming storm)
A storm is coming, a storm
A storm with great rage
6. A Desert Throne
We fade like shades
As the words of an ancient ritual
We have failed
I've seen the end of humans
I've seen the work of lies
On an empty throne
Like a desert throne
I've seen a wrath inhuman
On an empty throne
Like a desert throne
I've seen the end of times
On an empty throne
Like a desert throne
Like a desert throne
I've seen the end of humans
On an empty throne
Like a desert throne
I've seen the work of lies
On an empty throne
Like a desert throne
I've seen a wrath inhuman
On an empty throne
Like a desert throne
I've seen the end of times
On an empty throne
Like a desert throne
Like a desert throne
Erase my thoughts & feelings
I can't bear the recurring memory
We fade like shades
As the words of an ancient ritual
We have failed
I've seen the end of humans
I've seen the end of lies
I've seen a wrath inhuman
I've seen the end of times
On an empty throne
Like a desert throne
On an empty throne
Like a desert throne
Like a desert throne
Desert
Throne
7. Modern Primitives
Reframing old ways
A reconstruction
We demand to relieve the world
From our own afflictions
Deformed, we play with guilt
Shout, push
Primitive thoughts are taking control
A zero price for knowledge
We are the parasites, infecting all with foul desires
Our forefathers are calling us
With their wrath, we are stained
Random orders we dictate
Unprepared to admit ignorance
Why do we fall?
Why do we bleed?
We pretend that we reign
We are eager to obey
In a world of lies, emptiness
Why do we fall?
Our forefathers are calling us
Why do we bleed?
With their wrath, we are stained
Bleedin', screamin'
Modern primitives
Inventing new ways to wreak destruction
We mock and blame all, with no distinction
Deformed, we play with guilt
Shout, push
Primitive thoughts are taking control
A zero price for knowledge
We are the parasites, infecting all with foul desires
Our forefathers are calling us
With their wrath, we are stained
Random orders, we dictate
Unprepared to admit ignorance
Why do we fall?
Why do we bleed?
(Bleeding, screaming)
Modern primitives
Our forefathers are calling us
With their wrath, we are stained
Modern primitives
(Why do we fall?)
(Why do we bleed?)
(Bleeding, screaming)

8. Psychohistory
Riots, guns and revolts
Group dynamics produce wars
All empires shall fall
The disorder is hidden to the core
Matters of psychology
Motives of the mind
Are the fuels of history
Actions predefined
Psycho
Psychohistory
Psycho
Psychohistory
Psychohistory
The one you'll never read
People larger than life
Strong, ambitious with great pride
Faults are hidden from sight
Imperfections and flaws will be denied
Matters of psychology
Motives of the mind
Are the fuels of history
Actions predefined
Psycho

The one you'll never read
9. A Dreadful Muse
The walls try to breathe
Asphyxiating with our kin
We shall pay the price for our insanity
We are banned from life
We'll sink into the night
One more dead
Sick is our muse
We were banned from life
We regret before we die
This is the world we have made (Afraid)
This is the world we dominate (Afraid)
Afraid to live
A world made of concrete
A casket made of stone
And we forget how to touch, how to move
We were banned from life
So now we'll sink into the night
We were banned from life
We regret before we die
This is the world we have made
This is the world we dominate (Afraid)
Afraid to live
One more dead
Sick is our muse
