Fading Light
Fading light
A dimness I cannot bear.
Fight or flight
Another thousand yard stare
Violent Death
Truly blessed
Ancient Foes
All of whom I shall oppose.
On my guard
The dimness cannot conquer me
I've become a god
I have heard this heresy
War of Souls
Death arose
Victory
From mountain to burning sea.
Shattered Crown
Dying dreams of a world since past,
Our technology had failed at last.
No one heard an answer to hope.
The gates of heaven had finally closed.
Symptoms of sickness the world around,
Every king had lost his crown.
All the cities burning so bright,
Lending a glow to the eerie night.
No one had seen a future so dark.
Humanity would never lose its spark.
Dark days surely lie ahead,
Blood burning and rivers of dead.
Entrusted to Darkness
Entrusted to darkness
No world without end
No heaven above us
Below us the dead
The end draws nearer
Moments slip away
Each breath closer
Fear brings the haze.
Eternal Damnation
A dark mirror scene
Just as fantastic
As heavenly dreams
Action screams loudly
The words simply craft
Can we evolve now
From our evil past?
Wanderlust
Need in our blood
Yet here we sit
Destroyed by the floods
Entrusted to Darkness
No world without end
No heaven above us
Below us the dead.
I've seen potential
Progressive spark
An end to the bloodshed
Freed from the Dark
Defeat true Evil
Lies and Deceit
Past this Veil
Strengthen the weak.
Systems of Control
We look to the stars
To find who we are
Desperate cries for salvation.
Our past is a lie
Millions have died
God's name torn from the Heavens.
Systems of Control
Landing deadly blows
Ill forgotten, forgive them
Or they will rise
And tear out your eyes
Desperate cries for salvation
Innocent men
Trained by the lash
Doomed from the first
Brittle for
Evil men have prophesied
The end of our lives
Their descent into the fires
Begets all our desires.
Corrupted by hate
Malicious Scorn
Internal Rage
Brittle for
Evil men have prophesied
The end of our lives
Their descent into the fires
Begets all our desires.
Creation of the Fall
When we began the hunt
Roaming through the Wild
No gods to fear
No priest to cast the blame
Egalitarian
All must share the trial
Survival everything
One man could not reign
Then men were civilized
Darkness fell so fast
Game and land were claimed
With priests to rule it all
Greed and Terror came
They have not looked back
Pass ten thousand years
We have created our Fall.
Truth Shrouded
Twice it came unbidden
Twice destroyed our world
Demon-faced debauchery
Behind a mask of pearl
Cloaked in mad obsession
Drowned in wine and feast
Illusions all the brighter
Performed by magic beasts
Truth shrouded in darkness
Time's passage all unknown
Waking moments nightmares
The dream had surely grown.
Dance in the land of Faerie
A million nights of flame
Illusions of such grandeur
Brought on by great pain
Sadness such a burden
Clawing at the cross
Knowing without knowing
Bringing constant loss
Un-blind yourselves or perish
See the shadowed truth
Visions will not falter
You've courage yet to prove
Blackened lies untarnished
Fed into the flames
Call the demons to you
Call them by their names
Dance in the land of Faerie
A million nights of flame
Illusions of such grandeur
Brought on by great pain.
How Dare You?
Ignore the child
Innocent face
Discomfort grows
No love embrace
Wrathful and blind
Eyes full of tears
Future destroyed
Unfounded fears
Such strange regret
So much time lost
Infernal rage
Disgorge the cross
You know my mind
You feel my pain
Kingdom destroyed
Eternal rain
[What did you think would happen?
I see water under the bridge.
Did you not see what would happen?
I stand with my torch on the bridge.] -Lyrics that were omitted from the final version of the song.
Volatility Quotient
Close your mouth,
Your first mistake,
Even after begging,
You will not wake.
Offer not your hand,
See without your eyes.
Who the fuck can tell you
When to compromise? (C)
Giving only pieces,
Hiding in plain sight,
Every fucking whisper
Undone all out of spite.
Remember all the good times
Oh wait, you fucking can't
Vision clouding over
Assumptions there to plant.
(C)
Can you quantify?
You should quantify.
Can you compromise?
I will compromise.
Eyes of royal beauty
Tears of salted pain,
All it takes is wisdom;
Do not fear the flame.
Sinking all the insults
For your way,
You cannot see the answers,
No, no way. (C)
You will not stop to think.
How am I to soothe?
Even when I tell you
How to make your move.
Given all the darkness
Why not move to light?
Why is it so normal,
Mind shut tight. (C)
