Martial Law 02:51
Arm the people. Take their stronghold. Burn it to the ground. I won't back down. I won't back down. Take up all your swords and shields, fulfill the prophecy. Everything you've ever dreamed becomes reality. Take their stronghold, overthrow oppressive tyranny. Go kill what's been killing us, cytotoxicity. You will never see the end of us. Everything you stand for will be dust. We will rebuild society until all is lost for us. Destroy, erase, improve, repeat. Destroy, erase, improve, repeat. Destroy, erase, improve, repeat. Destroy, erase, improve, martial law. Now your life means nothing at all.

Start the fight. Enter strife. Death after life. Imprisoned in assumption that something lies beyond this world. Born into this deception: there's something greater than myself. Am I wasting my life waiting for my death? Searching for an afterlife, hating every breath. Overcome these obstacles, discovering free thought. I'm done searching for the truth, except within myself. We will not see the end. We will die tonight. But we must defend. We must do what's right. The only thing that's certain is our days left upon this earth. And only time will tell if death shall bring about rebirth. Am I wasting my life waiting for my death? Searching for an afterlife, hating every breath. Overcome these obstacles, discovering free thought. I'm done searching for the truth, except within myself. Start the battle, stab to the heart. Armor rattles, rip them apart. Am I wasting my life waiting for my death? Searching for an afterlife, hating every breath. Overcome these obstacles, discovering free thought. I'm done searching for the truth, except within myself. Am I wasting my life waiting for my death? Searching for an afterlife, hating every breath. Overcome these obstacles, discovering free thought. I'm done searching for the truth, I found it in myself.

Evangelion 07:32

Bleed. Hands of silence wrapped around my neck. Lost my voice, struggling for breath. You plant this sickness in my head. Sanity slowly slips away. Left my soul to rot and atrophy. Draw me into your soul, push me into the dark. Your sickening bliss, an infinite abyss. Do you know what you've done, in eternal descent? I dig myself in, 'til I'm buried alive. Feel my bones crack under pressure. Take my life for your own pleasure. What little I feel fades away. Fuck the past, I just want to live. All my sins strengthen your cold grip. Draw me into your soul, push me into the dark. Your sickening bliss, an infinite abyss. Do you know what you've done, in eternal descent? I dig myself in, 'til I'm buried alive.

Ghosts feel no regret. See the nightingale fly overhead. Hear her sorrowful cries carry on the wind. Jealousy, in your heart fills you with hate for all. Taken back, by force, from oppression, your son, now dead. A sudden flash. A flicker of regret. Face to face with death. The son of man, civilization, reduced to ash by us. Take what thoughts are left. Sorrow, fear, and pain. Channel it to survive. A better world, never found. Radiation feels so sweet. Ghosts feel no regret. All that remains, charred bones and flesh. The smell of decay lingers here. Who to blame but ourselves? We brought this upon us. No hope for change. "Who to blame but us?" cries the nightingale. Her call screams "death." Take what you can find. Hope to live for the dawn. Nothing to left find, nothing left to save. Ghosts feel no regret.
