Accustomed to this plastic world Accustomed to false standards We don't know how we look anymore True beauty hides down under Covering imperfection's perfection The true charm of human beauty A mask to cover supposed deception We don't know how she looks We don't see any of the truth We don't see what lays behind That layer of make up makes you blind Plastic beauty When did implants became The norm of physical attraction? It's so evident Yet everyone falls for it Seeking perfection With evident tampering Of the human body We don't know how she looks We don't see any of the truth We don't see what lays behind That layer of make up makes you blind Plastic beauty Lead: Navarrete Lead: Saeger The coveted non-tampered body Is so hard to find Big silicon-enlarged breasts A natural past, it hides Is self-esteem so low these days That girls insist On augmenting, covering and modifying? We don't know how she looks We don't see any of the truth We don't see what lays behind That layer of make up makes you blind Plastic beauty

Rising from the grave Just to become a slave Was told to behave He has a road to pave Deceived with lies of realization But just got pain and frustration Was brought to comply, not to decide He is rotting on the inside Modern slavery The zombies of our times Unaware of all the crimes Craving for power oftentimes But end up without a dime Deceived with lies of realization But just got pain and frustration Was brought to comply, not to decide He is rotting on the inside Modern slavery

Above the clouds In an oniric paradise Perfection awaits For our efforts to suffice Above, in the skies Time endlessly wait For us to be ready To arrive at the gates A never ending cycle We yet again return To fulfill an uncertain mission And re-encounter with those we yearn Upon this timeless journey We will reunite Amid our brethren At the end of our fight

I said I don't belong here anymore Power stop opponents with stones This mad-land is more insane than ever before To enforce their rule they'll break your bones Hidden we try to perform our shows But authorities, they always know Locked away in a cage we are Just because we want to play guitar Wretched are us who don't follow the way Will we ever see the light of day? In this hell we are tortured and rammed Halls of the damned I refuse to give up my dignity I refuse to be part of this bigotry I won't say sorry, I won't budge I am the one they will never judge My friend just damns them all All his fingers, they were mauled Screams of terror to stop this mania Outrageous religious schizophrenia Wretched are us who don't follow the way Will we ever see the light of day? In this hell we are tortured and rammed Halls of the damned Time goes on and they let me go I should've been gone so long ago I won't take more madness and hate I don't want to live this fate I must escape Lead: Navarrete One last effort To live my life the way I really want Friends and family left behind I really hope they understand This new home This new place I am settling in No more hiding, no more running Free world, here I'm coming

Welcome to these sacred grounds I hope you don't make a sound Have a drink, have two, have three C'mon, enjoy what we have for thee You will see It will be Your own hell But I tell you This will be my realization My heaven My dearest heaven My dream came true The upbringing of my power I will be in control Go sleep now, my slave I really hope that you will behave You don't know what's coming But I'm sure you'll like what I'll be doing Close your eyes Hypnotized This new light A new sight for you This will be my realization My heaven My dearest heaven My dream came true The upbringing of my power I will be in control Solo: Navarrete This will be my realization My heaven My dearest heaven My dream came true The upbringing of my power I am in control In control I commit the sin I bring it in I feel your body inside me The excitement The ecstasy I realized my fantasy My deed is done, now be gone You'll be forever my pawn No one will believe what you will say A myth is all what happened today Disbelieve Doesn't exist Feel the shame Try to blame me It was my realization My heaven My dearest heaven My dream came true The upbringing of my power Forever in control What will you say? That I played, That I made You hit me with your blade?

Closed doors on my back A clear field ahead All pitch black, a sight of the dead In a place where shadows cannot be seen Where souls borrow chances unforeseen Why is it now the time? Why does it call me back? I must climb, get back on track A journey in which I must embark Now I must depart Until a new dawn I am now gone Oh, I am now gone *Instrumental segment* Solo: B. Saeger Solo: L. Saeger Solo: Navarrete Lies from the living realm They haunt me still This bright light overwhelms me Many voids to fill Walking directionless Caught in the reign of the dead No turning back I'm in a cul-de-sac Solo: Navarrete

about

This is the follow-up to my album 2012. I came back to write lyrics in English because I think they work a lot better in that language than Spanish.

There's a lot of progressive elements in the music and more predominant keyboards all around. This is a very experimental album, so don't expect consistency or every song sounding the same as the other one. I want you to keep wondering what the hell is going to pop up next for the next song.

I expect people to love one half of the album and hate the other half. That's ok.
