Tracks



01. Walk With Knowledge Wisely

My will cannot be broken
'Cause when I rot I crawl back from the dead
I am the living proof
That you can right what is wrong in your head

The weak can always overcome
But only if they burn with desire
And all the tears a man can cry
They will not put out the fire

Walk with knowledge wisely
You don't have to die
Put an end to what poisons you

My heart might have been broken
That will only fuel what grows in my mind
I am the living proof
That a soul can burn a thousand times

Accept what God has given you
And you'll find the answer all around
Rise from the ashes
And be heard with a deafening sound

Walk with knowledge wisely
You don't have to die
Put an end to what poisons you

Walk with knowledge wisely and be free

02. Symmetry In White

Unobscured
Symmetry in white
Offering mercy
Absolution for the damned

As she said in a vision of Hell
A conversion of life
Bringing sanctuary
Apparition of flames
The embracing of dusk
Incandescent embers

Amidst the pain
And infernal despair
Shadows of souls
Transparency glows
With remorseful darkness

As she said in a vision of Hell
Bringing sanctuary
Apparition of flames
The embracing of dusk
Incandescent embers

Spiritual holocaust
A prescription for war
With infinite lust
The injection of filth
Impervious dreams of symmetry in white

As she said in a vision of Hell
Bringing sanctuary
Apparition of flames
The embracing of dusk
Incandescent embers

03. The Taste Of Dying

I will tell you all the things that you don't want to hear
But they're bringing you down
Drug addiction, no restriction ever gets you past
The taste of dying

One man stands alone
Weak and frail
Gaze into his eyes
Never fail

Turn the never-ending wheel that surely seals your fate
Can't you feel it coming?
Downward spiral case of misconception aggravates
As you feel it endlessly

One man stands alone
Weak and frail
Gaze into his eyes
Never fail

04. Reflection Of Deceit

The taste of immortality
Come and put your faith in me
The offering of destiny
The mirror of lies

The crowning of hypocrisy
A pawn in my masterpiece
Drowning in my entity
Immersed in disguise

Illusive giver, patron of reprise
Reject the thought of losing what is mine

Ascend above your own demise
Perception now accepted
Oblique deception always lies
Your penance is denied

Renouncing of the pageantry
Shatter the humility
Exposing of your destiny
The mirror of lies

Illusive giver, patron of reprise
Reject the thought of losing what is mine

Accept my spirit
Come and see
My eyes wide open
Endlessly

Ascend above your own demise
Perception now accepted
Oblique deception always lies
Your penance is denied

05. Ageless Decay

Ancestral malignance
Repulsive revolt
Absorbing the life
To gain self-control
Saturating humanity
With deceptive design habitually

The procreation continues
With its veil of disguise
Sustaining the burden
Of those in its eyes

Blood in my eyes

Ancestral malignance
Repulsive revolt
Absorbing the life
To gain self-control

The procreation continues
With its veil of disguise
Sustaining the burden
Of those in its eyes

Resist its affliction
Let divinity descend
An epiphany of spirit prevails in the end

The ageless decay
The ageless decay

The procreation continues
With its veil of disguise
Sustaining the burden
Of those in its eyes

Resist its affliction
Let divinity descend
An epiphany of spirit prevails in the end

06. Amaranthine

Promise me you'll be there when I die
Give me peace before I close my eyes

Cleansing a forgotten soul
Comfort from the bitter cold

Just take my hand and guide me through the dark
Learn to trust when trust was never real
Far beyond the things I used to feel

Black mist turns into light
Never fading into night

Just take my hand

I'll never walk alone
I'll never walk alone
I'll never walk alone

07. The Foreboding

Don't give me
Don't give me sympathy
I'm still alive
Alive and whole

Rise above, hear me breathe
Paramount, what I see

My vision, a vision truly bleak
Unholy world, a godless world

There's nothing I can do
That changes what is true

I'm looking straight into the future
Right into its eyes
And what I'm looking at is evil
Mournful souls and cries

Rise above, hear me breathe
Paramount, what I see

I'm looking straight into the future
Right into its eyes
And what I'm looking at is evil
Mournful souls and cries

08. Shaman Of Belief

Look up at me
You're crawling
On dirty ground you prowl
Lift up your head
And see me
Your antidote is now

Open up your mind
Time to realize

Now save your energy and use it well
It's not too hard to see
What's real

Look up at me
You're drowning
So far below
Beneath
The answer that eludes you is echoing so deep

Open up your mind
Time to realize

Now keep your energy and use it well
It's not too hard to see
That time will tell
I'm the creator of all your dreams
I am the shaman of belief

09. Teach The Blind To See

So many years, so many words
Bringing honesty to you

Just follow me
You won't regret
It's what I do
I don't forget

I'll lead you to the truth

Know I'm not the enemy
I can teach the blind to see

Too many tears, too many wounds
Bringing healing to the ill

Just follow me
You won't regress
I'm giving life, I'm giving breath

At times it's hard, at times I'm blind
But I bring new life to you

And in the end
That's what is real
'Cause agony will make you feel

Into freedom I lead you

Know I'm not the enemy
I can teach the blind to see

Just believe and follow me
This becomes your legacy

Know I'm not the enemy
I can teach the blind to see

10. A Wealth Of Empathy

I can't explain my suffering
But I have lived through misery

My faith will pull me through
And bring to me new life
No need for sympathy
I've overcome

My strife, no longer feeling cold
The mind grows wise as we grow old

My faith will pull me through
And bring to me new life
No need for sympathy
I've overcome my strife

The man I used to be
A shadow of me now
The wealth empathy will let me show you how

The passing on of those I've loved
Eternally I'm thinking of

My faith will pull me through
And bring to me new life
No need for sympathy
I've overcome

11. Symbolic Suicide

Radiation and gravity
For centuries now they have been haunting me

And when they're near, I feel it
I'm lost in fear, I can't quit now

Symbolic suicide
I feel the need to tranquillize
I dream then watch you
Burn in agony

I'm praying for Heaven
While living through Hell
A story of pain
That only I can tell

And when they're near, I feel it
I'm lost in fear, I can't quit now
I won't quit now
I can't quit

Symbolic suicide
I feel the need to tranquillze
I dream then watch you burn
Symbolic suicide
I dream then watch you

Don't do as I, just hear my words
Don't live as I, my lesson's learned
