Die tonight
Run. There’s nowhere left to hide.
The shattered voices—the innocents die.
The consequences for all we have done have finally come to collect the price.
Desperation setting in.
Don’t hold back.
There’s nothing left for us to lose.
This is the time.
This is our life.
This is the fight for all we’ve left behind.
We’ll arrive.
We die tonight.
This is the fall.
This is the rise.
This is the only hope for life.
They survive,
We die tonight.
God, how did it come to this?
Who holds the fault for this calamity?
Under duress and the weight of restraints,
Who is to blame for this madness but we?
We stand on the frontline.
They witness the horror unscathed.
This is the time.
This is our life.
This is the fight for all we’ve left behind.
We’ll arrive.
We die tonight.
This is the fall.
This is the rise.
This is the only hope for life.
They survive,
We die tonight.
I see your victims.
I see the helpless,
Left to die.
This is the time
This is our life
This is the fight for all we’ve left behind
We’ll arrive.
We die tonight.
This is the time
This is our life
This is the fight for all we’ve left behind
We’ll arrive.
We die tonight.
This is the fall
This is the rise
This is the only hope for life
They survive
We die tonight

Cries
I can hear their cries.
Some things awaken awaken, but everything dies.
This world around me has left me reeling.
Built upon frailty, bred on uncertainty.
Fear becomes a motivation.
A silent treaty, a thief in the night.
Something has to happen some way.
An inspiration to overcome.
Lies
I see through the lies.
We’ve been forgotten.
The lives of our people cannot be contained.
Never falter, never break.
We’re not your slaves.
You have a choice to make.
We’re not your slaves.
We are
The faithful in the blind.
Fallen
Another genocide.
We are
Facing our demolition.
Fallen
Witnessing genocide.
We are
The faithful in the blind.
Fallen
Another genocide.
We are
Facing our demolition.
Fallen
Witnessing genocide.
We’re not your slaves.
Crawl through the waste and dismay.
Find a way to break free of this agony.
No justice, no peace.
We’ve killed ourselves.
We’re left to witness our genocide.

Endless Nightmare
03:37
|

|
ENDLESS NIGHTMARE
Walk along the narrow road.
Leads you to eternity.
From the dust, a phantom light begs only that you stay.
Can’t stand the weight any longer.
Can’t exist in this misery.
“Contest the violent.” An ideal that could not sustain.
And with my dying breath
I curse all the devils the demons that wait at my grave
Curse all the bastards that aid in dismay
Bow down, be away or destroyed.
Be nothing or a memory.
Constant but can’t find a reason to justify my living a life of pain.
This will not destroy me.
This will not destroy me.
I close my eyes, just to see the world without my reflection.
The blood of another meant more to me than my own life
This is the price we pay, the cost of what it means to be.
What is this nightmare? What does it hold for me?
There is no escape from this tragedy.
An endless nightmare led my world astray.
I must find a way. (through the phantom light)
(through the phantom light)
Broken and bleeding, my will is holding for dear life.
Can’t see the point. Can’t see the point.
What is this nightmare? What does it hold for me?
There is no escape from this tragedy.
An endless nightmare led my world astray.
I must find a way. (through the phantom light)
This will not destroy me. This will not destroy me.
I seek redemption through the light.

Revival
03:43
|
|||
|
Revive, the will to follow through
Is there any hope for me?
Dead inside.
Dying, disintegrating, I stand against the grain.
Forced to be like you, I no longer could care less.
Threw away my disposition
Betrayed what mattered most
Fought through the infancy
Abandoned nonetheless
Revive the will to follow through
Is there any hope for me?
Revive.
Until the day I die I will stand revived.
I will stand revived.
Falling? Or rising? What fate awaits for me
Bounded, blinded, tortured.
Seeing the world as if seen through the eyes of a stranger, or an unknown face.
Eliminate the violation, stare dead in the face of annihilation.
You’ve stolen your grave, this is not your time.
You’re not fallen for life.
Revive the will to follow through
Is there any hope for me?
Revive.
Until the day I die I will stand revived.
I will stand revived.
And as I stand before you with my head held high
I’ll watch this world burn down
I’ll watch this world burn down
The sinner? The sin? Who is at most to blame?
Fled in denial. Fled in denial.
Revive the will to follow through
Is there any hope for me?
Revive.
Until the day I die I will stand revived.
I will stand revived.
I will stand revived.

In Desolation
03:17
|
|||
|
I’ve waited.
I have waited long enough
But it seems the race has not yet been run
I have fallen far enough
To know that things can’t ever be the same
A constant contest, Forever strife
Waiting for a reason just for me to stay alive
I’ve waited in patience, living in desolation
Alone and blinded in chains
Through pain and through anguish
The vision’s only faded
The past is all that remains
Searching for the words to speak
But this tragedy just cannot be endured
The man who was, and the strength he had
Have been reduced to this hollow shell
Nothing ever comes in life that makes you ready.
But now I know the time has come to carry on.
I’ve waited in patience, living in desolation
Alone and blinded in chains
Through pain and through anguish
The vision’s only faded
The past is all that remains
In the darkest of days, I seek my redemption.
I’ve waited in patience, living in desolation
Alone and blinded in chains
Through pain and through anguish
The vision’s only faded
The past is all that remains
I’ve waited.

Damnation
03:07
|
|||
|
Is this damnation?
I can feel the strain.
Fought through the inevitable decay of everything.
The search for purpose seems to have no end.
This time our souls have been reduced to nothingness.
It carves deeper into my flesh.
Forever in madness, we’re running in place.
Embrace the emptiness, you need not know the truth.
Is this damnation for me?
Is this damnation?
The systemic failure of ourselves.
Contained by fragile hopes that were never built to last.
Never built to last.
Not built to last.
Is this damnation?
There is no hope for us.
There is none.
Damnation has come to pass, we are standing in our graves.
Is this the final time I’ll see this place?
This wasn’t meant to last.
Not meant to last.
Wasn’t meant to last.
Not meant to last.
Tell me, is this damnation?
Tell me, is this damnation?

Dying Light
02:58
|
|||
|
Quietly sink from the surface, this can’t be real
Ran away from a call unanswered. I don’t believe.
Suffocate in open air, it’s killing me
I wear the scars and the wounds
Though I’ve not done a thing.
It’s killing me, this dying light
The strength to continue has left me tonight.
It’s killing me, this voice inside.
I fight to give in as it eats me alive.
What is this torture?
Is this all I am?
Why must I prove myself again and again?
It’s killing me, this dying light
The strength to continue has left me tonight.
It’s killing me, this voice inside.
I fight to give in as it eats me alive.
Eats me alive.
Into hopelessness, I fall.
Into helplessness, I fall.
It’s killing me, this dying light
The strength to continue has left me tonight
It’s killing me, this voice inside
I fight to give in as it eats me alive

Breathing
02:05
|
|||
|
In a place where there is no pretending
All you can do is face yourself.
Nothing to break your falling, no shield to save your skin.
In this life we are all united under the belief that we all must die.
In this life we are divided under the rejection of our mortality.
If we all must die, then why keep breathing?
If we all must die, then why keep breathing?
Why are we here?
Why are we here unless we’re meant for something more?
If we all must die, then I’ll keep living.
If we all must die, then I’ll keep breathing. Shred.
If we all must die, I’m breathing.
If we all must die, I’m breathing.
If we all must die, then I’ll keep living.
If we all must die, I’m breathing.

End of Days
04:25
|
|||
|
We are the ones you left behind.
Left in the depths of your design.
We are the hunger left to starve.
We are forsaken.
Caught in the everchanging, collapsing of our world.
Light the funeral pyre.
We’ll live to feel the flames.
Men of tyranny and destruction gave way to sorrow.
There’s truth in madness.
There’s proof in suffering.
Baptized in fire.
The end of days.
I can feel it coming.
There’s something vacant that just can’t be ignored.
The age of heroes has come and passed.
We’re left in the wakes and ashes of all who failed before.
And in an instant, this all will end.
This all will end.
The end of days, I feel it coming.
The end of days arrives for us.
We are the ones you left behind.
Left in the depths of your design.
We are the hunger left to starve.
Forgotten and cast aside.
We are the ones you left behind.
We are the hunger left to starve.
We are forsaken.
We are the ones you left behind.
Left in the depths of your design.
We are the hunger left to starve.
The end of days is nigh.

Unbroken
04:29

Just take my life, I’m tired of fighting.
Just take my eyes, the sight is so blinding.
This walk’s on my own. (Drifting away.)
This war’s all I know. (Further and further.)
But I won't fall.
No I won't break.
Until nothing remains.
Although I’m lost.
I'll find my way.
I'll never be the same.
Unbroken.
Just take my hand. I’m frightened. Denying.
Just take these demons, these nightmares, away.
This walk’s on my own. (Drifting away.)
This war’s all I know. (Further and further.)
But I won't fall.
No I won't break.
Until nothing remains.
Although I’m lost.
I'll find my way.
I'll never be the same.
Unbroken.
Unbroken.
But I won't fall.
No I won't break.
Until nothing remains.
Although I’m lost.
I'll find my way.
I'll never be the same.
I won't fall. I won't break.
Not today. Unbroken.
I was lost,
I found my way..
I’m not the same.
Unbroken.

Eternal

Eternal
Steadfast in life.
Our time was ever abundant.
Forever cast into the flames.
Our destroyer, the hands of time.
We fought as long as we could.
Dying, a continuation of the soul.
I am not complete.
Frozen in time, I have found the answer.
The answer.
Let dust become of my bones and body.
A foundation for another world.
Dry your eyes, it's only the end of a grain of dust in an endless desert.
Endless, I will return.
Live again.
Eternal, I return.
Eternal, I return.
Eternal I return
Let go of your hatred
Burn all your regrets
Eternal I return to you.
Eternal, I return to you.

Music to strut to, to kick ass to, to lift weights to, to drive around and scowl to. Music that puts hair on your chest, broadens your shoulders, lengthens your wang. Music that feels like high school, that feels like I remember high school feeling, when you'd hear an album and go 'oh yes THIS'
