I grab the stick shift I slam it into gear I hurtle forward No return, leave this place for good No return Tires burn a blazing runic glyph Tires burn Feel the heat, engine revving hard Feel the heat Can’t be beat, vibrate primal need Can’t be beat No replacement I peel out madly I know I don’t belong I cannot, will not No return, leave this place for good No return Tires burn a blazing runic glyph Tires burn Feel the heat, engine revving hard Feel the heat Can’t be beat, vibrate primal need Can’t be beat No replacement I hear it call me I crave the open road Put wheels to pavement No return, leave this place for good No return Tires burn a blazing runic glyph Tires burn Feel the heat, engine revving hard Feel the heat Can’t be beat, vibrate primal need Can’t be beat There’s no replacement I’m gone For such displacement So long

Trashmaster 03:06
We ride out at dawn on constructs of steel Our beasts so shiny and chrome Thrown into their maws a putrefied meal Hauling all waste from your home We selflessly serve, no thanks coming forth Begrudgingly fulfill the quest This slight strikes a nerve, we gear up for war This vengeance never shall rest Armored in slime and bedecked in rust Corroded weapons we wield Surrounded by flies and piles of crust Stench of a megaton yield Waste caster Filth blaster Trash master Rot faster Sifting through refuse, we’re going insane Murderous thoughts multiply Septically poisoned, decay from within Maggots pour from my eyes I desire quality All you have is trash for me It’s time to collect, we’ve come for your lives, For your crimes shall you pay We come to infect, but when we arrive Shit, it’s Recycling Day! Waste caster Filth blaster Trash master Rot faster

Cast my mind back to my past Recollection holds some truth to me Memories are fading fast Can’t recall quite how it used to be At war with our past selves Hindsight is always crystal clear At war with our past selves Shed a light on inner fears Slide away from present tense Did I cause all of those grievous wounds? Broken where I should have bent Tear me up by the roots Hammer quicker in desperation Was it all my fault? Woken, spoken Coded messages dissolve Reaping, sewing, harvest Finally comes to fruit Evil power looming Vampires comes to roost All of the time I spent inside Wondering who I was A treacherous climb, a great divide Spilled oceans worth of blood Looking back instincts crack Beneath tremendous strain Fading to black, suspend the attack I’ve only myself to blame At war with our past selves Hindsight is always crystal clear At war with our past selves Shed a light on inner fears

Frostwound 03:24
Darkened sky - I’m freezing Storm is nigh - I’m bleeding Wailing wind - I’m freezing Blowing in - I’m bleeding It shall not snow another inch From this task I shall not flinch Holdeth my hand up to the sky Remove a digit with the knife Darkened sky - I’m freezing Storm is nigh - I’m bleeding Wailing wind - I’m freezing Blowing in - I’m bleeding As the blood flows down my wrist I clench my hand into a fist Was this sacrifice in vain? I must wait and take the pain This wound ov Frost As if it knew what was at stake The storm ahead begins to break If snow returns I’ll pay the cost I shall suffer wound ov frost This wound ov Frost

I remember the first time with the living dead Suckers wouldn’t stop chasing you until you shot ‘em in the head Society rebuilt itself, a misleading calm Lasted until some bastard went and dropped the bomb This is not, this is not, this is not My first apocalypse This is not, I can’t believe...this is not My first apocalypse Lip service was paid to radiation protocol But civilization went and took another fatal fall Super mutants and geiger counters flipped into the red Primitive future playing out on piles of the dead This is not, this is not, this is not My first apocalypse This is not, I can’t believe...this is not My first apocalypse This is not, this is not, this is not My first apocalypse This is not, I can’t believe...this is not My first apocalypse Yes my friend, Build again Like the past, We’ll outlast Cyclically, Endlessly Perpetually, Eternally But how did I survive? Thus I shall reveal it Ape hands a fruit Go ahead and peel it I remember the last time: invaders from space bent on extermination of the human race They would have succeeded were it not for the spell Cast by the demons rising from hell This is not, this is not, this is not My first apocalypse This is not, I can’t believe...this is not My first apocalypse This is not, this is not, this is not My first apocalypse This is not, I can’t believe...this is not My first apocalypse Yes my friend, Build again Like the past, We’ll outlast
