White Void - Anti lyrics



Tracks



01. Do. Not. Sleep.

Until the night falls
You wander restless like a child
Until the night falls
You keep the animal inside

Night is all that you do
You dress up in stars
'till black turns to blue

The night's surrounding you

So many years and I'm still falling
Through the stars I see you crawling
My hands are full, body's calling
Out to be the night

It took some time to want to be free
From the light of day

When the reason survives
And the shadow dies
There's a void in my mind

The night's surrounding you

Night is all that you do
You dress up in stars
'till black turns to blue

02. There Is No Freedom But The End

I ride on the highway
I'm down on my luck
I ain't got nothing
But this god damn truck
I'm heading for reason
I'm heading for hope
The blind man took my life
And hung it from a rope

Walk me to the river
I'll show you who you are
Walk me to the river
I'll show you who you are

There is no reason to...
There is no reason to...
There is no reason to...

I see the crooked towns
They pass by in a blur
My temples are burning
Like a fucking church
My engine is dying
As is my inner sense of trust
My truck is stopping
I leave it here in the dust

I'm on my own
I'm on my own

When I see the light
Washing madness from my eyes
When I see the light
Shutting out the god damn lies
When I see the light
Making everything so clear
When I see the light
This is how it ends my dear

It's been like this forever
It's like I'm under a spell
I's been like this forever
The blind man could tell I would
Walk into the dawn

Walk me to the river
I'll show you who you are
Walk me to the river
I'll show you who you are

There is no reason to love
There is no reason to love
There is no reason to love

Well, here ends my story
In the dirt and sand
Yes, here ends my story
I know, it was nothing grand
Now I'm on my own
I guess you could tell
Now I'm on my own
Let's make this my perfect hell

No more lies
We are the Luciferian tribe
No more lies
And no one sings in our praise
No more lies
We are the Luciferian tribe
No more lies
And no one sings in our praise

03. Where You Go, You'll Bring Nothing

The things that you gather
Are lost in the end
The world is not open
And your head is not here

Please tell me the reason
Why the melody is new
Tell me the reason
Why the orchestra is dead
Tell me the reason
Why the song is heard by no one

I'm turning around
(to head) into the unknown
Nobody can see
Where I'm going
To the black or white?
Right or left?
It's all my choice

Nobody can see it
As it dances across the sky
And nobody can hear it
As it crashes through the why

The why

Please tell me the reason
Why the melody is new
Tell me the reason
Why the orchestra is dead
Tell me the reason
Why the song is heard by no one

I'm turning around
(to head) into the unknown
Nobody can see
Where I'm going
To the black or white?
Right or left?
It's all my choice

A song from my reason
Has come to my heart
Nobody can hear it
Because my heart keeps it thin

When you crack it open, it falls apart
When you open it up, it breaks your heart
That's the message

Underneath it all you just try to breathe
No reason to be alarmed
Nothing's here at all
Rowing to the shore
Nothing's present

04. The Shovel And The Cross

I'm here against my god damn will
Go down

When you think that the grave is full
When you think that the lights are out
When you think that your head is gone
When you think there's no more fight

There's a whole new brand of misery
Seeping through your every pore

The lonely soul that I am
I'm never going back

The shovel and the cross
The dirt and stone, the skin and bone
Know what you're digging
You're digging the end

The shovel and the cross

There's a hat on a wooden cross
There are crows in the dying trees
There's dust in the warm, dry air
Someone's free from their misery

The lonely soul that I am
I'm never going back

05. This Apocalypse Is For You

It's the flame that's always burning in the sea
It's the life that's always chasing after me
By the time you see what's going on,
Your life's already gone
By the time you find yourself again,
Your mind's completely gone

I never thought I'd see the likes of you
You're everything I thought that I could do
There's nothing in the world that you can't do
Except the thing that matters the most to you
There's nothing else in here

This is my release
Over and over again
Brings you to your knees
Over and over and over again
It's the time that no one thought you'd be alive
With the thoughts that no one wanted to revive
But the things your mind can make you do

There's nothing like that flame
And the things you put your body through
There's nothing like that shame

This is my release
Over and over again

Turn your back to reason and praise the void

There is no light

06. All Chains Rust, All Men Die

Shield the embers
The sparks are precious
Feed the fire
Watch it dance
Take me closer
To the sky
While I'm grounded
I'm the connection

Grow into my mind, now I see the light
Open up the door, now there's no light
Oh, these chains keeping us down

All chains rust and all men die

Feed your ego
Until there's nothing left
Spill your heart out
Until its empty
Feed your frenzy
It's always hungry
Leave your lousy heart
In the fucking gutter

I looked upon my measly life
Then charged the world to end the strife
With nothing more to lose than heartbeat and praise
I forced existence into form
But what I got was not a storm
Rather an empty room, unlimited space

All chains rust and all men die

Absurdity had all the say
My haven rose up in a wave
My contemplations left me down in a hole
Absence of meaning first seemed cruel
Until I realised what foolishness it was
To think that all life has a goal

Come into my mind now
We'll see the light

07. The Fucking Violence Of Love

I look through the glass to make sure that the world
Is draped in black, still a glowing haze
I look with my mind so my eyes can rest
The festering voice makes my veins dry

I would read all the letters with that voice
Inside my mind

Give me a reason to stop

What can you tell
What can you tell
What can you tell
What can you tell

This is the reason why I'm singing
Reason seems to hide within
This is what gathers in my mind
Always argue with reason

In reality, we come to the same conclusions

By the river of my conscience, I'll be rising again

08. The Air Was Thick With Smoke

Far beyond any meaning
There's probably a door
Through depravity's clarity
I'll enter it once more

There is nothing here but infertile grounds
Salted and scorched to expel
Everything is gone but the distant sounds
And swirling smoke mimicking hell

When it hit me, it struck like lightning
To the ground, it struck me down

Far beyond any meaning
There's probably a door
Through depravity's clarity
I'll enter it once more

I want to kill them with my bare hands
I want to kill them with my bare hands

The air was thick with smoke
(Death in every breath)
I never wanted to let this be my exit

My demons will not survive

Answers they come from down below
Believe in the absence of meaning and sense
The death of the soul
A construct to make you feel whole
Destroy the idea of a soul
Kill the idea of a soul
