(Verse 1)
In the heart of the night, where the shadows fall
We stand with our blades, answering the call
The steel in our hands, a reflection of our will
In the dance with fate, blood must spill

(Chorus)
We die by our swords in the wars we wage
With honor we fight, with honor and might!

(Verse 2)
From our birth to our death
Back to earth on our last breath
We live by the code and we pledge to fight
In the realm of the brave under the pale moonlight

(Chorus)
We die by our swords in the wars we wage
With honor we fight, with honor and might!

(Bridge)
The scars that we wear, the tales that we tell
Instill the fear in the foes we will fell
As the battle carries on!

(Solo)

(Chorus)
We die by our swords in the wars we wage
With honor we fight, with honor and might!
We die by our swords in the wars we wage
With honor and might, towards the light!

We Die By Our Swords

Brace yourself for an intense journey into the depths of raw emotion and defiance. "Break the Machine" fuses blistering guitar riffs, unrelenting rhythms, and haunting melodies to craft a metal anthem of resilience. With a dynamic balance of chaos and melody, this track channels the unyielding spirit of those who refuse to bow to life's crushing weight. Let the screams ignite your fire and the soaring vocals lift your soul—this is more than music; it’s rebellion set to sound. Unapologetic. Unstoppable. Break the machine.

Lyrics:

Inside the wreckage, I found my war…

Beneath the surface, where the shadows writhe,
I’ve been clawing, screaming just to stay alive.
Truth cuts deeper than the sharpest blade,
This is my anthem for the price I’ve paid.

The weight of silence, it’s crushing my spine,
But I won’t be a victim to the chains of time.

Tear it apart, let the pieces fall,
A shattered life is still a life worth it all.
No surrender, I won’t kneel,
I’m breaking the machine, I’m turning the wheel.

They said I’m broken, but I wear it proud,
The scars I carry are my battle sound.
For every voice that was ever ignored,
This is your fire, let it burn to the core.

The weight of silence, it’s crushing my spine,
But I won’t be a victim to the chains of time.

Tear it apart, let the pieces fall,
A shattered life is still a life worth it all.
No surrender, I won’t kneel,
I’m breaking the machine, I’m turning the wheel.

They told me to sit in silence. They told me to obey.
But every scream I swallowed is a war I’ve yet to play.

I am the storm you tried to contain!
I am the rage that will never be tamed!

Tear it apart, let the pieces fall,
A shattered life is still a life worth it all.
No surrender, I won’t kneel,
I’m breaking the machine, I’m turning the wheel.

In the wreckage, I found myself.

Break the Machine

Lyrics:
Putting on my chubby sized camo pants
To meet my associates
We're bed wetting fanatics
In my Grandma's basement
Until she said:
"Boys, take it outside!"
I've done the research
I've connected the dots
From the podcast talks
And we're dumb with some guns

I have a militia meeting in my Grandma's backyard
Self-appointed defender of the liberty
An all American dickwad

Zipping up my Walmart flak jacket
I scratch my goatee
That rest upon my Habsburg jaw
I'm wet dreaming
Dreaming of martial law
Weekend warriors
We're taking down names
We're rooting out the traitors
We're tapping your phone
That's us
Knocking on your door
And we're dumb with some guns

I have a militia meeting in my Grandma's backyard
Self -appointed defender of the liberty
Red  & white and blue blowhards

I have a militia meeting in my Grandma's backyard
Self appointed defenders of the liberty
An all American blowhard
I have a militia meeting in the backyard
We're going out this week
We're patrolling your Blvds

I Have A Militia Meeting In My Grandma's Backyard

The track dives into the exploitation of frontline workers, with aggressive guitars, hard-hitting drums, and raw vocals that capture the fiery spirit of rebellion. The gritty energy builds through dynamic contrasts, delivering a rallying cry against corporate greed. It's a song for anyone who's ever felt overlooked or underpaid in the face of immense profits. This one hits hard and speaks loud.

Lyrics:

[Intro]
"Thank you for your service. Your raise request has been denied."

[Verse 1]
Hands in the gloves, sweat on the brow
Suits in the towers, they're laughing now
Overtime hours, bills unpaid
While they stack profits, we wither away

[Pre-Chorus]
"Tough year," they say, "Budgets are tight"
But their pockets grow deeper night after night

[Chorus]
Billion dollar bandages, covering the cuts
We bleed, they feed, and they call it enough
Suits count the bodies, then cash out the trust
Billion dollar bandages, silence the rust

[Verse 2]
Hospitals run like corporate machines
Stock buybacks over healing the weak
Every dollar saved, a life they ignore
Boardroom applause, demanding more

[Pre-Chorus]
"Tough year," they claim, "Budgets are tight"
Yet bonuses rain in the dead of the night

[Chorus]
Billion dollar bandages, covering the cuts
We bleed, they feed, and they call it enough
Suits count the bodies, then cash out the trust
Billion dollar bandages, silence the rust

[Bridge]
Record profits, wage freezes, layoffs ensue
Executives feast while the frontline's abused
We're done with the scraps, we're calling the bluff
No more excuses, enough is enough

[Final Chorus]
Billion dollar bandages, covering the cuts
We bleed, they feed, and they call it enough
Suits count the bodies, then cash out the trust
Billion dollar bandages, silence the rust

[Outro]
"Your raise request has been denied."

CERTIFIED IDIOT

Woke up late thought it was Sunday  
But it's Wednesday and I got work today  
Did I call in sick yeah you bet I did  
Now I'm at the bar where my boss just slid right in  
  
I waved at him tried to play it cool  
Then I slipped on a peanut and fell off my stool  
Now I'm on the floor I should probably go  
But I just yelled another round bro  
  
Why do I do the things I do  
No brain cells left just vibes and glue  
Mom always said I'd be a big success  
She was way too optimistic I guess  
  
I got a PhD in bad decisions  
Master's in Oops and Should've Listened  
Dean's List dropout king of regret  
Certified idiot haven't failed yet  
  
Dumb luck's got me dancing on the edge  
One step forward eight steps left  
They say life's a test I'm guessing I flunked it  
But I'm still here so I must've done something  
  
Tried to change a lightbulb with a metal fork  
Shocked myself now I speak in Morse  
Told my date she looked just like my ex  
Now I'm eating breadsticks in solo distress  
  
Put my last ten bucks in a vending machine  
Nothing came out so I kicked the screen  
It fell on me now I'm seeing the light  
But the chips were worth it man they tasted tight  
  
Why do I do the things I do  
Jumped in a pool with my phone brand new  
Told my landlord rent was just a suggestion  
Turns out it was not up for question  
  
I got a PhD in bad decisions  
Master's in Oops and Should've Listened  
Dean's List dropout king of regret  
Certified idiot haven't failed yet  
  
Dumb luck's got me dancing on the edge  
One step forward eight steps left  
They say life's a test I'm guessing I flunked it  
But I'm still here so I must've done something  
  
If common sense was a class I dropped it  
If life was a test I bombed it  
If bad choices were stocks I topped it  
If you need me I'll be duct-taping my wallet  
  
They say learn from your mistakes yeah that's cute  
But if I did I wouldn't have this suit  
It's neon pink says Free Hugs Inside  
But honestly man I wear it with pride



Certified Idiot

Lyrics:

I won’t lose you, I won’t break
No silence, no surrender

I see the weight you carry
You think you’re fighting this alone
But every scar, every battle
Is written into my bones

You’re not a shadow, you’re not just passing through
You’re the reason I stand, the fire pulling me through

I would fight for you, I would bleed for you
I would tear down the sky just to see this through
Every mile, every storm, every sleepless night
I will never stop—I will never lose this fight

I see your doubts, I hear your fears
You don’t know if I’ll stay right here
But I’ve burned the bridges, locked the doors
There’s no world without you anymore

You’re not replaceable, not a fleeting thought
You’re the reason I breathe, the war I already fought

I would fight for you, I would bleed for you
I would tear down the sky just to see this through
Every mile, every storm, every sleepless night
I will never stop—I will never lose this fight

I don’t need a reason, I don’t need a sign
All I know is you are worth the war every time

I would fight for you, I would bleed for you
I would tear down the sky just to see this through
Every mile, every storm, every sleepless night
I will never stop—I will never lose this fight

I would fight for you, I would break for you
No chains, no distance, nothing I won’t do
If the world tries to take you, if they block my way
I will set this fire—I will burn it all away

I won’t lose you, I won’t break
No silence, no surrender

Worth the War

Lyrics:

Rollin’ down the boulevard, neon’s in my veins!
Leather boots on concrete, thunder in my brain!
Eyes like gasoline, light the spark and watch me glow!
Ain’t no chains to hold me, baby, let the wild wind blow!

"C’mon, let’s GO! HA!"

You can’t stop a fire when the fuse is burnin’ bright!
Ain’t no cage can hold me, I was forged in midnight LIGHT!

"Midnight Hey!"

🔥BORN TO BURN!🔥
Like a phoenix from the flames, no, I’ll never fade away!
🔥BORN TO BURN!🔥
Turn it louder, raise your fists—this fire’s here to STAY!

Heatwaves on my back, ride the storm, no looking down!
Crank it up, the fuse is lit, we’re runnin’ hot on borrowed time!
Pedal down, no lookin’ back, chasin’ fate across the line!
If you’re comin’ for the throne, baby, get back in line!

"Ohhh yeah, keep up if ya can!"

You can’t stop a fire when the fuse is burnin’ bright!
Ain’t no cage can hold me, I was forged in midnight LIGHT!

🔥 BORN TO BURN!🔥
Like a phoenix from the flames, no, I’ll never fade away!
🔥 BORN TO BURN!🔥
Turn it louder, raise your fists—this fire’s here to STAY!

🎸🔥

🔥 BORN TO BURN!🔥
Like a supernova blast, ain’t no chains will ever hold me back!
🔥 BORN TO BURN!🔥
Turn it up, don’t turn me down—this fire’s never GONE!

"ONE MORE TIME! LEMME HEAR YA!"

🔥 BORN TO BURN!🔥
I’m the lightning and the flame, baby, SCREAM MY NAME!

🔥BORN TO BUUUUUUUURN!🔥

Born to Burn!

CROSSED ROADS

Walking down the road again
Wondering where it leads
The stars above they guide me
Whispering my needs

Clouds are shifting shapes
Painting the sky blue
Paths we take unknown
But our hearts follow through

Fate will take its course
In a world so wide
We can't run or hide
Fate will be our guide

Winds of change are blowing
Life keeps moving fast
What tomorrow brings us
Only fate can cast

Moments of change are blowing
Life keeps moving fast
What tomorrow brings us
Only fate can cast

Moments lost and found
Memories we keep
In the hands of fate
We'll find what we seek

Clouds are shifting shapes
Painting the sky blue
Paths we take unknown
But our hearts follow through

Fate will take its course
In a world so wide
We can't run or hide
Fate will be our guide

Walking down the road again
Wondering where it leads
In the hands of fate
We'll find what we seek

Clouds are shifting shapes
Painting the sky blue
Paths we take unknown
But our hearts follow through

Walking down the road again
Wondering where it leads..

Live My Passion

Thunder & Temptation

Fracture Parade

[Verse 1]
Outback soul in a concrete maze,
Mangy mutt with a wild-eyed grin chasin’ craze,
Nine-to-five in a dead-end grind,
Suits in towers, laughin’ while they nickel-and-dime!

He’s got a ute with a busted gear,
Dunny door slams, but he ain’t got no fear,
Flickerin’ screens, static in his veins,
Fair dinkum grit in a world gone brains!

[Pre-Chorus]
Snags on the barbie, esky’s run dry,
Thongs on his feet, sunnies to the sky—
Oi!

[Chorus]
Down Under chaos, livin’ upside right!
Plugged in, amped up, crank it to ten tonight!
Tucker’s cold, but the laughs are hot,
Stickybeak’s watchin’—give it all ya got!
(Screamin’ guitar riff)

[Verse 2]
Red tape jungle, dodgin’ every trap,
Bills pile high like a roo’s backstrap,
Neighbor’s a larrikin’ chook in a spin,
Sanger flies loose, but he’s back for the win!

Gumleaf serenade, trash bins clatter,
Corporate crooks yabber, but it don’t matter—
He’s a bushfire spark in the asphalt rain,
Rippin’ through the grind like a runaway train!

[Pre-Chorus]
Esky’s kicked open, tinnies in hand,
Dodgy gizmo’s hummin’—Strewth, what a stand!

[Chorus]
Down Under chaos, livin’ upside right!
Plugged in, amped up, crank it to ten tonight!
Tucker’s cold, but the laughs are hot,
Stickybeak’s watchin’—give it all ya got!

[Bridge]
Gizmo’s on the blink, but the spirit won’t die,
Flat out like a lizard drinkin’—reach for the sky!
No time for grizzlin’, just a cheeky wink,
Aussie battler’s anthem, let the good times clink!

[Chorus]
Down Under chaos, livin’ upside right!
Plugged in, amped up, crank it to ten tonight!
Tucker’s cold, but the laughs are hot,
Stickybeak’s watchin’—give it all ya got!

[Outro]
Rip snortin’, hell-for-leather, never tame!
Concrete wallaby strut—play the bloody game!
Yeah!

[Final Chorus]
Down Under chaos, livin’ upside right!
Plugged in, amped up, crank it to ten tonight!
Tucker’s cold, but the laughs are hot,
Stickybeak’s watchin’—give it all ya got!
