Lyrics:

Frozen in time vicious crime
Take away the misery inside of me
Dark shadows of destiny
Run rampant like a river of wounds through my mind
Solitude my relief
My belief in this life of seclusion
Signs of life bitter strife
Reality slowly fades into illusion

Why must I die
Trying to satisfy
Freewill my life is mine to live
Freewill I've nothing left to give

Hidden thoughts inside of me
Wounds that will not heal
Take the power from me
As I see just what is real
Living by my standards
I decide just what is right
You won't take me down
For my belief till death I'll fight

I'm a victim of my fears
Wash the blood away with tears
Through the pain and anguish
I've battled through the years
I look into the mirror
Of death each growing day
In your eyes an outcast
Why don't you listen to what I say

Why must I die
Trying to satisfy
Freewill my life is mine to live
Freewill I've nothing left to give

@hoopsdrvr1 Yes they reformed in 2008 to make some gigs, they say they will record an album soon. This one is amazing!! Buy it if you have the chance! NOW!! haha

[hoopsdrvr1]

@liveShit I hope they release another one. But hell yea man this NEEDS to be purchased!! Im gonna check Zia Records but Id still be surprised if I find it there, although I have came across some good hard to find shit at Zia. Do you own this album? If so where did you pick it up at?

[liveShit]

@hoopsdrvr1 Wish I have it! See thing is that I live in Argentina and here you barely find some stuff from underrated bands like this. I think I will never find this album here.. Maybe if they release a new one they could sell it in my country, but I don't know. That just suck balls!

I remember when I discovered these guys I was shockingly pleasantly surprised you just have to keep searching for that fucking badass band during that time I found devastation, I found Fallen Angel, Believer, Accuser, Aspid (Russia), Faith or Fear and Channel Zero wow was I glad. everyone should give these guys a listen but I can't wait for devastation to play in LA hopefully

I really need to buy this CD, its a thrash metal gem that I have only discovered recently. Just when I think I have heard every good old school thrash/death metal band from late eighties/early nineties, I come across another one
