lyrics

Its not a mission of love
Its not a mission of hate
Its just emotions to me and you

Its not a vision of war
Its not a vision of faith
Just a story of whatever comes true

Its not a mission of love
Its not a mission of hate
Its just emotions to me and you

Its not a vision of war
Its not a vision of faith
Just a story of whatever comes true

Hope, life and murder is what you are eating
You kick and you scream, you don't look away
Look up beliefs if you give them a reason
You live just like them but theres no other way
Break you down, its just a matter of time.
The fear in your eyes, will lead you astray
You're too weak to take a stand
So you work to your death, theres no other way

Your just another number

And as you lay forgotten,
You lay on down for the land of the rotten

Its not a mission of love
Its not a mission of hate
Its just emotions to me and you

Its not a vision of war
Its not a vision of faith
Just a story of whatever comes true

You question their lies and they burned you with treason
Shackles and chains, they'll lock you away
Laugh at your cause as you beg for your freedom
No fighting back, no heroes today
Sit by your side as they watch you die
A knife in your back, as your life leaks away
The people cheer as their enemies die
Blinded by lies, they cast you away

No, No. No heroes today
No, No. Theres no other way
No, No. They'll cast you away

Its not a mission of love
Its not a mission of hate
Its just emotions to me and you

Its not a vision of war
Its not a vision of faith
Just a story of whatever comes true

No more, No sympathy!

Yeah!

Can you break the terrors the hold?
Knowing their coming to get you
You hear the screams of the young and old
fallen to the land of the rotten

Second Coming of Heavy Chapter One - Geezer/Borracho
by Geezer/Borracho

supported by 8 fans who also own “Land Of The Rotten”

Are Geezer the heaviest heavy blues band out there? Probably, but if you’re unsure, just listen to these four songs and decide for yourself. And while your eyelids get heavy from all that smoke, Borracho have the cowbell to lead you home. This is a stoner rock goldmine, folks, so bet in the van whilst you can. We got nine more of these trips to go! Kirk Gauthier

Sabbath Highway
by The Watchers

supported by 7 fans who also own “Land Of The Rotten”

I was hooked on these guys from the opening riff on 'Sabbath Highway'. Best band to come out of the last decade or more. Hard to believe I used to listen to the singer's old band 'Systematic' in high school; the guys come a long way its almost unrecognizable. Amazing debut. satanslabrat
