The Axis

We seek power entirely for its own sake.
We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power, pure power. What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just around the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it.
Power is not a means; it is an end.
One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power... is power.
Now you begin to understand me.

A Brighter Cage

It’s the birth of a brand new world
Merged as one the illusion is real
Until the truth is unfolded
We have the power to achieve
Things you don’t understand
To live in perfect harmony
Just let us lead the way
It’s not insanity
To fight for the things
We know you need
All we ask for is blind obedience
And we’ll fulfill your dreams
We will not tolerate an insurrection
We will not tolerate any deviation from this
A crime called creation
Deviates purity
Wards off perfection
We’ll make this nation great again
Creation is the way of chaos
We must reverse this broken society
Surrender yourself and trade your dignity
For a brighter cage
All the things you have lived for
Every lie you’ve believed in
Are the reasons why we’re here
They are the hindrance, inimical
Recede, go back
We’re here
A dormant threat from the outside
Don’t let them come
They are the enemy
Let us be your guidance
Out of broken morality
Salvation now has a face
We will not tolerate an insurrection
We will not tolerate any deviation from this
Any deviation from this
A crime called creation
Deviates purity
Wards off perfection
We’ll make this nation great again
Creation is the way of chaos
We must exterminate
Kill your lower self
Redeem all constraints
From within
For this ultimate path
Shall undergo and transmutate
This absence
Converge on the unseen
The light… you, fool
Merged as one as a whole
The illusion seems real
Until the truth is unfolded
Please let us in, let us fill your inner void
The sooner you fit in all your fears and tears will go
Evolution
Feeds the flame that creates conflict
It’s better for yourself to avoid this suffering
Dissent is betrayal
The truth is one
Doublethink
All mutates
You must choose a side
Better stand with us
Or face an imminent annihilation
Walk away or be part of this
Be part of this
It’s the birth of a brand new world
A crime called creation
Deviates purity
Wards off perfection
We’ll make this nation great again
Creation is the way of chaos
We must exterminate

Escaping
05:30

We are slaves of the things we don't need
We consume
We've sold out our souls to be none
Not to suffer
To avoid despair
Yet another offense remains still unanswered
We've been drugged by promises and lies
What we believed is just a construct
It doesn't exist
I...
I need a way out
I hate all that's around me
Fucking system
Breaks your knees
Wants you to thank
For the crutches
Given, not yet taken away
Rage
My repulsion is total
Liar
Stop pretending it doesn't affect you
This is real
Safety is transitory
Wait until it shrinks
Close enough to drown you dead
Castrating the human essence
To render backwards its design
We beg to be sedated
It's all about escaping
To be numb from reality
To be numb from ourselves
We beg to be sedated
It's all about escaping
To be numb from reality
And then coming back
Just to be you
Reality is devastating
Don't pretend it doesn't affect you
This is real
Safety is transitory
Wait until it shrinks
Close enough to drown you dead
Castrating the human essence
To render backwards its design
Its design
Render backwards its design
Stop... stop... enough... stop
I became stronger when you tried to break my will
And if you take it all away from me
Something will remain holding strong my humanity
I won't glorify a piece of shit that doesn't belong to me
It's an imminent collapse
A failure
It's an imminent collapse
A failure
It's been always about escaping
Escaping

Irradiant Finland
With relentless use of power, many have attempted to redefine human nature. Symbiotic phenomena coexist in every attempt to create the new man in a massive scale. Domination, through strict controls. Tracking, with severe surveillance. Conditioning, by numbness and desensitization. Not the utopic version of humankind results out of this, for The New Man is nothing but the bottom of human dignity. ... more
