Tracks



01. Remains

Take a look at the sky
It's crimson red
The sun has split
It's brain dead
TIme to leave
This all behind
For a better place
In a better time

Leaving tomorrow
Leaving forever
Leaving tomorrow
Nothing remains

I leave you here
To make your peace
You're the cause
Of all misery
The Earth is screaming
A planet drowned in plague
Nothing else to do
And nothing left to say

Leaving tomorrow
Leaving forever
Leaving tomorrow
Nothing remains

It's been a thousand light years
Search a thousand times
Oh, then I finally found paradise
A star of light
With people who respect
The world we live in
And what it is

Not leaving tomorrow
Not leaving forever
Not leaving tomorrow
Not leaving tomorrow
Not leaving forever
Not leaving tomorrow
I'm the remains

02. A Prelude To...

Waking up
To the sound of pain
Over and over
It's the same each day
Time to focus
On staying alive
Time to face the day's first light

It proves hard today
The screams start early
No relief for the saint
Stepping outside
Into the hatred
It's the same as yesterday
Yesterday and before
Yesterday and before

03. Bloodshed

Doom's outside your door
You'll never make it to the street
Carnage everywhere
Feeding on the weak

Turn your back to the window
Duck and hide your head
You better listen to me
I smell bloodshed

We might kill our neighbor over nothing at all
Brother fight sister, who's the first to fall?

This happens every day
So get it through your head
Pay attention
All around bloodshed

Be the first to panic
You'll be the first to die
Shot down in the back
Bleeding and wondering why

This happens every day
Get it through your head
Wake up and listen to me
This happens every day
So get it through your head
Wake up and listen to me
I smell bloodshed

04. 12 Years In The Tomb

My existence seems to be not knowing life from death
Four stone walls are closing in, I'm going quite insane
Nothing left for me to do but stay and waste away
Every time I try to leave, I'm stuck in this same place

The endless loop of every day
Pulls me back to start
I scratch and claw to get away
But still I'm in the dark
I feel I'm invisible to everything around
The creepers that are feeding me never make a sound

12 years in the tomb
12 years in the tomb
12 years in the tomb
12 years in the tomb

Each night gotta find a crack with moonlight shining in
I pray if I could just slip through, escape, I would win
Stone cold walls forever laughing
The wind draws her not seen
Always give a glimpse of freedom to show that it's a dream

05. Wormhole

Winding through the backroads of my mind
Tryna find a corner to get high
All my windowpanes are clear
My friend the dragon's already here

Hungry zombie lookin' for a meal
Barters with a hag, can you strike a deal?
Seven white horses passin' by
Demon fire in their eyes

Backwoods livin' is the life for me
The beast or the sloth is what keeps me free
My creepy little troll is sittin' in a tree
With a bag full of bottles for the mosh pit scene
Smoking up the cobwebs in my head
Strolling along with the walking dead
I always feel safe in a sacred place
Far away from the human race

06. Hour Glass

Witch rides in, seasons change
The leaves are turning brown
No time to be prepared
She's soon to swoop down

No, I can't hide the way I feel
It's dragging me down
Running 'til I'm out of breath
Only to be found

Horoscope has spun its web
Zodiac is now
Spiders numb the Virgo's legs
Vengeance is all around

No, I can't hide the way I feel
It's dragging me down
Running 'til I'm out of breath
Only to be found

My faults, regrets are what you seek
I didn't know you'd steal my gravity
The viper's hands are reaching up, grab a hold of me
Just like the hourglass sand, it's pullin' me down

Witch's traps have been laid
On the victim she's found
Quicksand has swallowed me
Soon I'll be underground

No, I can't hide the way I feel
It's dragging me down
Running 'til I'm out of breath
Only to be found

My faults, regrets are what you seek
I didn't know you'd steal my gravity
The viper's hands are reaching up, grab a hold of me
Just like the hourglass sand, it's pullin' me down

07. City Park

There's a man
Who sits in a chair made of fog
You may ask him a question
But the answer might not all be to you

I think it's what you think it is
Existence could be an illusion
Do you really want to know the truth?

08. Last Breath

Hold your breath
Or I'll hold it for you
I've got no time for your kind
Say your prayers
Or I'll say them for you
And expose the world to your lies

Blow a bubble
And I'll pop it for you
Is that a scream that I hear?
On your knees
Begging
You don't even know why you're here

You deserve
What you've become
A broken shell of a life
I'll now leave you
To the rotting
A fitting way to end your time

09. Useless

Clashing in the streets
Taking you nowhere
Screaming out of line
A line that will get to you

It means nothing
Protest, protest
It means nothing
Useless, useless

Voices disappear
Into thin air
Down on your knees
What has it proven?

It means nothing
Protest, protest
It means nothing
Useless, useless

This shit doesn't change
Tear down for now
What I'm becoming
Nothing at all

It means nothing
Protest, protest
It means nothing
Useless, useless
