Only the Ruthless Remain - Skinless

No honor, no code

Fighting for survival

What was unified fails

Devolved creation

With only one goal

Survival day to day

Hostile environment

Violent conditions

Berserk, amok, insane

Hardens mankind’s fate

Empathy fades away

Blood, battle

There’s no allegiance

Only to oneself

Friends, family slaughtered in terror

Not retribution or revenge

Blindly killing, possessed by fear

Berserk, amok, insane

Frenzied, desperate charge, rampage killer

Empathy fades away

Hardens mankind’s fate

Empathy fades away

When only the ruthless remain

All benevolent acts have been in vain

Idealistic values sacrificed

What shall come to pass

When only the ruthless remain

Struggle, fail

There’s no allegiance

Act only as one

Kill them all, even your own

They’ll turn on you for less

Blindly killing, possessed by fear

Berserk, amok, insane

Frenzied, desperate charge, rampage killer

Empathy fades away

Hardens mankind’s fate

Empathy fades away

Season of violence

Subjects of destruction

Dark valley of death

Souls extracted from this earth

Purgatory ends

For another to begin

Pulled down below

By an unknown force

Tortured, beaten

Malnourishment and famine

Diseased demise

Souls extracted from this earth

Religion erased

Beliefs debased

Burning heat, sears the flesh

Boils the skin, melts the bones

Organs liquefied, then evaporated

Soul has left, to be pulled back in

To a mortal hell that will never end

Impaled by the beast and left to rot

In time, you’ll wait, you’ll wonder, you’ll die

In Time, you’ll fight, you’ll fail, you’ll die

When only the ruthless remain
