lyrics

His mind is the mold
Of fearful events
A matter of time
'till it's reality

The power to see
What someday will be
Visions of the future
Through creativity

What's in his mind?
The birth of another tragedy
Just give him time
And it will be part of destiny

And it will be part of destiny

Brain by brain
A contagion runs
A virus of madness
Hits every man on earth

An acropolis
Hides the antidote
He'll find its access
When the right time will come

It isn't like it was meant to be
Now that it's real
There is no access he can see
He starts to fear

Cheated by his imagination
Punished for his crime against humanity
Innocence would be found only in his mind

He's now forced to soar through that world in his mind
To find the strong antidote that will save mankind

Destiny must not turn to a tragedy
Destiny must not turn to a tragedy!

Location made it hard for me to be on the tape trading circuit back in the day, so discovering this band in the 80s would have been hard from rural ohio. Glad I got to hear this now! Rivals all the stateside 2nd wave thrashers ! Recommend ! warchrist30

This album changed my life. It shaped my tastes in so many ways, and not least of which by helping to set me straight on punk. I didn't even know about d-beat in my teens, and this was the first album I heard that featured it right in your fucking face. I was also in the process of leaving my hometown; deciding where to go, what to do. It helped me make the right decision. What else can be said about this thing; I always knew it was one for the long haul. I'm forever grateful to this band. Absolute Zero
