As I am following your footprints in the dead of night
The fog is thickening the air and as the rain falls down I feel your presence nearby and as I search the grounds I see you trembling with fear lying on the ground I walk up to you, look into your eyes I see pain and sorrow and that you will never rise Regretting all events that you have lived 'till this day There's no turning back, nothing you could do nor say The understanding of certain decisions May sometimes be difficult A fear which could last all eternity I enter your mind, see the world from your eyes I reach out, touch your soul: I close my eyes to feel The rumbling pain that runs within you, which now cannot be healed Our minds are correlated in space of tranformed state Your body levitates by my hand, I read your thoughts at infinite rate. The understanding of certain decisions May sometimes be difficult A fear which could last all eternity I enter your mind, see the world from your eyes You seek forgiveness from God and people surrounding You've just realized the pain and sorrow you have given Love was something you were getting, never giving Now your soul is forever scarred and weakened Soon, you will understand the time has come today For you to learn from your mistakes, for you to learn the ways Willing to see through the heart, beauty and brightness of the mind Knowing how to use the sight, the ability to find. The understanding of certain decisions May sometimes be difficult A fear which could last all eternity I enter your mind, see the world from your eyes Chemical sorting and pair creation Intervention takes place, memory to ashes The mind reborn, you seek your true purpose It lies within you... I feel peace within as your soul meets a new world A world where you may step up to a higher learning Take my hand and walk down the path of forgiveness 02. Dysgenics
Think you've got the control?
A string of words I've heard before Tread the path, walk the line You let yourself believe the lies Your whole life is just an empty shell Abandoned soul, angel from hell Eyes fixed on you I see your thoughts pierce the darkness Words flow from the wounds Bring to life the lifeless No image can replace, the dark fall from your grace Dreams last as long as it takes to remember They always fade When all is said and done You'll see that there's still only one Pain you caused, hate you filled There's not much left of you so called will So now you look, and now you find the truth in a cesspool of lies Wake up, you're in disorder Wake up, you've got nothing to give Eyes fixed on you I see your thoughts pierce the darkness Words flow from the wounds Bring to life the lifeless No image can replace, the dark fall from your grace Dreams last as long as it takes to remember They always fade 03. Hunter/Killer
On the twilight of life, the sky shed tears
Knowing too well of what lay ahead Fate revealed Pale shadows danced as the night caught fire No turning back, one glance ahead What was void now turns to red Responsiblity discarded A snake always sheds it's skin Push away the pain we cause Live to sin, we are Hunter/killer Blinded by our hate, deafened to cries Hunter/killer Only one has the right to survive Hunter/killer Faith in conviction of lies When all that's left is a sigh Then we'll wonder why no one asked why A truth that cuts deeper than the lies that bind Souls hardwired to serve one god Backbone made of fear tranlates to lack of control Responsiblity discarded A snake always sheds it's skin Push away the pain we cause Live to sin, we are Hunter/killer Blinded by our hate, deafened to cries Hunter/killer Only one has the right to survive Hunter/killer Faith in conviction of lies When all that's left is a sigh Then we'll wonder why no one asked why Torn apart who can we look to for answers? One more loss will bring is closer to the edge Unwritten chapter, a final tale Are we the only one's who cannot comprehend? Can't you see we've only just begun No second chance, there's only one No turning back, what's done is done Look into the eyes of madmen Pools of blackness lie beyond Drowning the soul, drowning cries Ties that blind, lineage that's last so long Must be overcome before Time is revoked, curtains fall 05. Let It Burn
So many things are hidden
A question that has no rhyme Walking in a circle Too many things we can't define Wandering thoughts Wonder what thet must mean Mind finds no peace The whole keeps going, can't be seen We try to find our way out There's no escape from a mixed up life We keep trying to push on Just gotta let it burn Let it burn We gotta keep trying to push on Let it burn Existence lined With diligence it should make sense So simple it cannot be So empty it ends up dead Choking Seething We suffocate ourselves in shame Running from our dreams We try to find our way out There's no escape from a mixed up life We keep trying to push on Just gotta let it burn You feel that there's no way out That there's no refuge for you You feel that there's no way out That there's no end in sight To win you've got to shine Taste the life inside No holding back Past regrets can't breath If not allowed to seize A lifetime full of promise Exquisite painting hides Mistakes and first drawn lines The colors that have run The canvas that has turn dry Never do Never cry These are the words of those Who never had the guts to try We try to find our way out There's no escape from a mixed up life We keep trying to push on Just gotta let it burn Let it burn We gotta keep trying to push on Let it burn Time has a way of forgetting All the times we took wrong turns No need to keep on reliving Ready to burn Take a chance Just gotta keep pushing on No need to keep on reliving Gotta let it burn 07. On The Shores Of Ithaka
In our minds eye...
Certainty, all powerful Beyond blindness and fear Confident fused with vanity Arrogant, propelled by scorn Foresight, relegated to beg in the streets with despair, caution, forever lagging behind the horizon As we sail from day into night's web Tich with deceit of a tender embrace And a knife to the heart! Blurry eyed we strain Seeing a different reality Each visions at odds with the truth Never again in reach so obvious to the ones Less myopic Each vision as our minds blind to The impending doom Guided by our misguided way We plow on, sight hollowed out Visions blunted by web of deceit Thick with contempt with most vocal burn blessed, with scorn Others hope it goes away and... Let it happen Word collide, worlds shatter Opinions are cheap Fed by ignorance And there is the paradox How do we reach utopia Our shores of ithaka If we move in the opposite direction While trying. On the shore, of ithaka.. 09. I Believe
One belief that gave rise to a nation
Etched in our history A future carved in stone Foundation of what was Yet to come to light A people reduced to slaves Never given the right to say I believe I believe you can never take that away I believe I cannot lie blind To fight for a right to be I will give my life Believe With dove amongst a murder of crows A martyr in disguise wearing a robe of gold Outstretched arm hides Cracked smile lies Pleasant words try But no one can deny that I believe I believe you can never take that away I believe I cannot lie blind To fight for a right to be I will give my life Believe Beneath the star, the battle lines are drawn tonight A child runs for cove, holds his mother tight To take a life comes too easily How can one live when you must die for your beliefs Can't control myself I see something else Gotta control myself Take me away Gotta speak my mind Too many walking blind Gonna have to speak my mind I believe 10. Mute Requiem
Over there lies the body, of false hopes and unfulfilled desires.
It inspires only loathing Silence, irony, becomes it's only testimony, Contrary to the envisioned outcome and the desired result Pity, this final outcry for sympathy Committed with such self-indulgent finality, is doomed to failure. So pathetic, unreversable and blind... Irony and contempt For the failed life Seems fitting of this Mute Requiem... Emptiness cries out my name! Emptiness cries out my name In vain As I turn my back and walk away Maggots assemble To begin their song 11. Cadences Of Absonance
Here I stand
On the shores of abandomnent, Waves quietly at my feet. All I see is venom! Venom is all I see, surrounding me! Venom! Oddly it sooths me, quiets my needs New answers rush at me. With hateful vengeance, I throw my soul away, conclusions might as well be carved out in stone, In a flash of clarity from exiled sanity My mute witness and detested consort with singularity of my purpose It quiets my mind! Sinful ecstasy feeds my skin! As I throw my soul away! Twisted logic of foul play Here I stand of sound body and foul mind Composing my manifesto of silence. A twisted requiem by the mute for the deaf. A lunatics symphony of absonance Discordant cadences of a chaotic mind. It quiets my mind! Sinful ecstasy feeds my skin! As I throw my soul away! Twisted logic of foul play. I threaten the universe with murder and rape In hope of obtaining some sort of reaction. Lucidity purged By fever thick with hate, chaos, deceit and other peoples pain Here I stand throwing fists at the sky Ready to claw back What is rightfully mine Amidst the ignorance of the stillborn world about me. |
