Don't speak, before you start to run
don't die believing, silence
hide it deep inside, to be the question
turn to understanding, of the difference in between
to see what lies beneath me, and try to set the scene

Be yourself, save yourself
my life is fading, all is lost
turning to see you, my desire

Lay down, you won't be seen or heard
don't think you're something, revenge
prepare to take your stand, break free the silence
turn to understanding, and the nothing turns to you
and the something speaks to you
you scream your name but you're voiceless
and the something speaks to you

Be yourself, save yourself
my life is fading, all is lost
turning to see you, my desire

Your voice, inside me
that scream, still haunts me
and I will bleed your name
I'll reach the point in time, that dream
still haunts me, the empty, despair
and I will bleed your name
I'll reach the point in time, i'll bleed your name

My life is fading, all is lost
turning to see you, my desire
in disguise, it's incomplete now
inner lies, my new desire

Through the dreaming lights, into darkness of nightmares
to the endless hollow, I shall go
from happiness to sorrow, from something to nothing
from the beginning to the end

You see my truth and see my name
I will believe in you and you will succumb to me
See my truth and see my name, and I will know you
and I will drain you dry

All is fading, all is lost
the endless never, the blood light
the darker shadows, and the darkest night
the endless never, the blood light

As my life fades out, as death kicks in
will I regret my life, of sin
from punisher to punished, from master to slave
to my endless grave

You see my truth and see my name
I will believe in you and you will succumb to me
see my truth and see my name, and I will know you
and I will drain

All is fading, all is lost
the endless never, the blood light
the darker shadow, and the darkest night
the endless never, the blood light

Take me away, far from this day
and let me stay, and believe in my shadow

All is fading, all is lost
the endless never, the blood light
the darker shadow, and the darkest night
the endless never, the blood light
fading black, the endless never
fading black, the endless never

Listen, and I'll try to make you see
listen, I'm tired now
i'ts timeless, and it's growing every day
and frameless, in every way

Free again, bleed my thruth in timeless sand
free again, I'll believe and understand
your world, be your world
bleed again, I am nothing in your eyes
bleed again, to regain myself and feel
your world

Embracing the nothingness and...

In my cold dark emptiness, I will save you
or repay in recklessness, in the nothingness
to my deep and dark demand, I'll betray you
and destroy your hopefulness

Innerlines, leading me astray
inner lies, taking me away
it's pointless, shrinking day by day
eventless, in every way

Free again, bleed my thruth in timeless sand
free again, I'll believe and understand
your world, be your world
bleed again, I am nothing in your eyes
bleed again, to regain myself and feel
your world, save your world

In my cold dark emptiness, I will save you
or repay in recklessness, in the nothingness
to my deep and dark demand, I'll betray you
and destroy your hopefulness

Free again, bleed my thruth in timeless sand
free again, I'll believe and understand
your world, be your world
bleed again, I am nothing in your eyes
bleed again, to regain myself and feel
your world, save your world

I am falling
To see what's left behind
I am fallen
To you I must be blind
Is this the blinded calling?
Is this the mindless falling?
It's me
It's me
Open your mind
And please forgive me when I die

I am the Architect of Lies
Into the nothing I will fly
This black and endless nothing
The white and pointless something
In me
In me

To be nothing
To have an empty mind
To be lost and
To see the truth benign
Is this the path I'm choosing?
My friend I think
I'm losing
To you
To you

Open your mind
And please forgive me when I die

I am the Architect of Lies
Into the nothing I will fly
This black and endless nothing
The white and pointless something
In me
In me

Enter my selection
I will show you desolation
You will fall
You will fall
You will fall
You will fall

I am mind
I am

I am the Architect of Lies
Into the nothing I will fly
This black and endless nothing
The white and pointless something
In me
In me

I am the Architect of Lies
Into the nothing I will fly
This black and endless nothing
The white and pointless something
In me
In me

So hear me now
This weakened voicing
Listen one last time
It is dying
Here at the end I am
Watching closely
Afraid to see you
Afraid to be

So here it is again
This loneliness of mine
I can't seem to find you
I don't believe you're there
Is this your hand?
Is this the turning?
I need to say I lost you
I need to say goodbye

And save me from this blinding night
Of nothing
Save me from the dying
Save me from my god
Choose to find salvation in the sorrow
I hope to see you laughing
Laughing at the end

So here it is again
This loneliness of mine
I can't seem to find you
I don't believe you're there
Is this your hand?
Is this the turning?
I need to say I lost you
I need to say goodbye

I'm standing here in line
Hoping to see
My dreams are intertwined
I'm here by your side
So here it is with me
This old friend of mine
I'm trying to break free
I'm here by your side

So here it is again
This loneliness of mine
I can't seem to find you
I don't believe you're there
Is this your hand?
Is this the turning?
I need to say I lost you
I need to say goodbye

I am the essence of ignorance
The destroyer of innocence
Stand by watch you take he fall

And I, I wil cut into you my peer
And reveal your darkest fear
As a river of blood you will flow

Look into my eyes
I am the one
I will defy

Looking into an endless mirror
Seeing nothing the end becomes clearer

Feel me now as I (Your soul and your dignity)
Steal some how the fall and I (Your system will fail)
Make you surrender
As I surrender

Now
Now the silence begins my friend
It's the cold, dark and bitter end
Stand by watch it fade watch it fall

Now
Now your fear is reality
All your dreams you will never see
Endless darkness surrounds you now

Is it cold now, my friend
Can you feel it?
This is the end

Looking into the endless never
Seeing into the darkness forever

Feel me now as I (Your soul and your dignity)
Steal some how the fall and I (Your system will fail)
Make you surrender
As I surrender

Your soul is mine!

Feel me now as I (Your soul and your dignity)
Steal some how the fall and I (Your system will fail)
Make you surrender
As I surrender

As your voice falls silent
And dies with you
As my mind is opening
Who will follow me now?
Turn to understanding
Of the difference in between
To see what lies beneath me
And to try to set the scene

I lost my faith tonight
I found my soul in you

I long
I long my death connection
Embrace me
Consumed by self deception
Free the memory

Touch my death connection
As long as I am god
Dream my six commandments
The lie is intertwined
The search for death continues
As long as I am here
Believe your own reflection
When darkness reappears

I lost my faith tonight
I saw my soul in you

I long
I long my death connection
Embrace me
Consumed by self deception
Free the memory
To be my death connection
Deceive me
And feel divine redemption
Embrace reality

Have I lost myself in you?
All these silent screams fall through
Fall through

Don't try to save me
Don't try to save me now
Your words will break me
Your words will break me down

Have I lost myself in you?

I have lost my soul
I have lost myself in you

I long my death connection
Embrace me
Consumed my self deception
Free the memory
To be my death connection
Deceive me
And feel divine redemption
Embrace reality

I saw you laughing
Saw your tears decay
I heard you speak to me
Washed my smile away

We're failing
It's failing
These twisted thoughts inside of me
They are failing

I can feel this tragedy
Pure and simple tragedy

Grey!

So break my twisted world
It is the only way
And take these chains of gold
And let me die this way
Please believe me
I lost my soul today
My friend it's ending now
There's nothing left to say

I can feel this tragedy
Pure and simple tragedy

We're failing
It's failing
These twisted thoughts inside of me
They are failing

I saw you laughing
Saw your tears decay
I heard you speak to me
Washed my smile away

I can feel this tragedy
Pure and simple tragedy

Turning the nights, into your darkness
Dreams of the never, screaming for more
Searching for answers, searching for meaning
Searching for life, as your life fades away

Turning your answers into your lies
Twisting the truth, the truth you deny!

Grasping to this
Hope I have
In between my dreams
I dream

Free in this maze
Calling you
In disgrace
Falling

Falling through lies, falling through pain
Into the night, you're falling through rain
Into the never, darkness forever
Feeling the cold, the shameful shiver

Feeling the shame, you are becoming heartless
My friend you lost, execution style!

Grasping to this
Hope I have
In between my dreams
I dream
Yeah!

Free in this maze
Calling you
In disgrace
We will fight
To believe
In ourselves
'till we die trying

(The Architect speaks:)
"I've never felt sorry for anything that I've done, other than hurting my family
Only thing I feel sorry for
I'm not looking for forgiveness, and I'm not repenting
No. I'm wrong. I'm wrong
I do want my family to forgive me
This would never be me, this!
You see the Architect cry, not very macho but...
I've hurt people that mean everything to me
The only people that mean anything to me"

And so you fail
Being so frustrated
You will fail
Try to set your mind free
You will fail
Turning empty pages
Life is stale
Time will only show

You've taken all my dreams away
Destroy yourself and let it fall astray

Free in this maze
Calling you
In disgrace
We will fight
To believe
In ourselves
'till we die trying

This is where it ends
And this is where it all begins
So step right along my friend
I will let you know my name

Disappear in crystal shades of grey
Believe in nothing
Losing all you have in life
Will teach you nothing

You stand alone my friend and I
Will hear you calling out but I

I am
I am
You will be blinded by fame
Enter my selection
Show me desolation
And I will hear your shame
And so you die

And so it all begins
My death connection
You lose your perception
Embrace the non divine

Reappear and speak your final peace
Relieve yourself
Believe in all you see before you
Believe in me

You stand alone my friend and I
Will hear you calling out but I

I am
I am
You will be blinded by fame
Enter my selection
Show me desolation
And I will hear your shame

Lie for lie, I realize
Eye for an eye and the world turns blind
You are paralyzed, nothing to gain
By hiding behind your shame
Creating structures and lies that ruptures
I am the Architect of Lies
Lies
The Architect of Lies

You stand alone my friend and I
Will hear you calling out but I

I am
I am
You will be blinded by fame
Enter my selection
Show me desolation
And I will hear your shame

So now I turn my face
And see you cry
Ad thus I crawl
Crawl in line

I raise my hand and try to
Speak but I
Feel so numb

I lost my soul today and I'm...

Lost to all salvation
Failure is my name
My voice is all but silent now and I
Turn away from
Hoping
Hoping
My head is all but empty now and I
Hold on to your lie

I raise my head and see you
Once again
You're losing faith
Losing faith
I picture all you told me it's frozen
In my mind
Slow decline
Slow decline

So you scream
And I see you
Failure I will believe
My life is all but lose

Failure I will listen
To a mind that's broken
To reach the path unspoken
To see what I have chosen

Failure I will listen
To a mind that's broken
To reach the patch unspoken
To see what I have chosen
