Welcome to your end of days
Are you ready to die? One more swing Bloodletting There's no place left for you to hide Your world is now over and no one can save you Ambition has been laid to waste This gift and creation are plagued with disease Fury and grief are displaced No way to prepare for the end Blood will be shed Final farewell This is the age of hell Heading towards insanity Scandalous demise Sacrifice is imminent The smell of death breathes new life The structure is cracking from rot and decay The faces will all look dismayed No type of prevention, no chance to discover just what could have been the way No way to prepare for the end Blood will be shed Final farewell This is the age of hell Bones have been broken and teeth have been cracked Walking disaster, headed straight for death There is no way to get out alive This temple has fallen for good Will there be a chance to rebuild it all If I could fix things I would No way to prepare for the end Blood will be shed Final farewell This is the age of hell 02. Clockwork
Clockwork I hear the sound of the bell
The more I push the more I forget I'm in the mood to lose myself The more I push the closer I get I started off small But you knew it wouldn't stay that way I've tripled the amount three times over Don't know where it's taking me Every day I fly just a little higher I want to float forever And leave this world behind I traveled long and windy roads The more I see the more I fear There's only one thing in this world That makes everything crystal clear Every day I fly just a little higher I want to float forever And leave this world behind I'll keep the earth below Drifting through eternity Clockwork I hear the sound of the bell The more I push the more I forget I'm in the mood to lose myself The more I push the closer I get Every day I fly just a little higher I want to float forever And leave this world behind 03. Losing My Mind
Ready to explode
The pressure buries me The poison takes control I drop down to my knees I scream Get this invader out of me I scream Is anybody listening me? I need help this is killing me I'm blinded by the thought of tomorrow I'm drowning in this ocean of sorrow I need to leave it all behind I think I'm losing my mind Trembling My hands start to shake The sweat drips down Can't look in the mirror This face is unfamiliar Temple throbbing Panicked I start to scream I scream Get this invader out of me I scream Is anybody listening me? I need help this is killing me I'm blinded by the thought of tomorrow I'm drowning in this ocean of sorrow I need to leave it all behind I think I'm losing my mind Is there anyone out there that can help me? I'll try anything to make it stop I need help this is killing me I'm blinded by the thought of tomorrow I'm drowning in this ocean of sorrow I need to leave it all behind I think I'm losing my mind 04. Time Is Running Out
I used to feel invincible
Nothing could stop me Now the smallest things are crippling Where did my passion go? Why don't I dream anymore? Is there anything real out there? I've lost all faith I had before How much more can I take Sick of making the same mistakes These memories have torn my heart Now time is running out It's hard to face the facts Head hurts from thinking All of this could have been avoided I had to destroy it all I had to start a new What is lurking around the corner? I've lost all faith I had before How much more can I take Sick of making the same mistakes These memories have torn my heart Now time is running out This arrow of time is irreversible This endless loop repeating infinitely I'm swallowed by the storm How much more can I take Sick of making the same mistakes These memories have torn my heart Now time is running out 05. Year Of The Snake
Choking on these feelings
This awakening has been at arms length for too long It's hard to accept when all I had was their words I've seen the devil and I've kissed the mouth of sin Bloodshot eyes and senses heightened I am seeking to get in These chains no longer bound me I'm shedding my skin once again In the year of the snake I was born into a world of pain and heartache Isolation was the key to unlocking my soul now the story will be told I've seen the devil and I've kissed the mouth of sin Bloodshot eyes and senses heightened I am seeking to get in These chains no longer bound me I'm shedding my skin once again In the year of the snake I've seen the devil and I've kissed the mouth of sin Bloodshot eyes and senses heightened I am seeking to get in These chains no longer bound me I'm shedding my skin once again In the year of the snake 06. Beyond The Grave
I've seen the signs
But I've ignored them Sickness has taken my soul This force deep inside has led me to this day I no longer want to be their slave I'm not meant for heaven or hell So what waits for me beyond the grave? I see the light Shining before me Fearless I'll walk alone This force deep inside has led me to this day I no longer want to be their slave I'm not meant for heaven or hell So what waits for me beyond the grave? Into the void everything is unknown The canvas is no longer black The situations have changed for the better C'est la vie The smoke fills the cracks 07. Born In Blood
Born in blood
Spawn of ignorance Damned from the start Hatred, violence, vengeance Dragged through the mud Survived the flood We proved them wrong The masses have been silenced There is no more doubt We've won the war inside our minds Nothing can stop us now Rage growing stronger Strength rising, conquer Nothing can stop us now We stand alone In a blood soaked wilderness Ruling the night Free from persecution Slaughtering all those who oppose Reveal the facts The veil has been lifted There is no more doubt We've won the war inside our minds Nothing can stop us now Rage growing stronger Strength rising, conquer Nothing can stop us now These battered broken hands Have been forged to iron fists To crush the strongest minds, to build the weak into gods The weight of the world can't stop me now for I hold it in the palm of my hand This universe is my stomping ground There is no love, there is no peace Emotional barriers have been reached I have walked with the dead hand in hand I see nothing coming of this master plan I want to live where nothing is alive There is no more doubt We've won the war inside our minds Nothing can stop us now Rage growing stronger Strength rising, conquer Nothing can stop us now 08. Stoma
Instrumental
09. Powerless
She lays there helpless
Alone in the darkness My chest is so heavy with pain you can't describe Sliced, cut Why? Skin so raw I've never been so frightened, so enlightened What kind of god does this? We were so powerless Summertime, we saw the king die What kind of god does this? Does anyone care? Living nightmares We were so powerless Breathing heavy as I remember those months Throat tightens I wish I were strong like you What kind of god does this? We were so powerless Summertime, we saw the king die What kind of god does this? Does anyone care? Living nightmares We were so powerless 10. Trigger Finger
There is a price to pay for freedom
There is a price to pay for bliss What is it worth to you my friend? What's more important in the end? Black hole swallowing Mental shattering The virus has consumed you Deep down Breakdown Meltdown Countdown Pitch-black attack And there's no turning back cause Right now I've got my finger on the trigger And I'm ready to pull I've got my finger on the trigger And my sights aimed at you There's no easy way to say this There's no easy way to stop Will you look back on this day And understand the reasons why You are following the same path Wallowing I wish you would wake up Deep down Breakdown Meltdown Countdown Pitch-black attack And there's no turning back cause Right now I've got my finger on the trigger And I'm ready to pull I've got my finger on the trigger And my sights aimed at you These routines will be the end of you Black hole swallowing Mental shattering The virus has consumed you Deep down Breakdown Meltdown Countdown Pitch-black attack And there's no turning back cause Right now I've got my finger on the trigger And I'm ready to pull I've got my finger on the trigger And my sights aimed at you 11. Scapegoat
Burning inside
Slumped over Living a lie I reach for the whip to tame the beast Your eyes judge what they do not know Don't look at me that way The words you use behind closed doors make their way down the hall I hear it all I'm not your fucking scapegoat Why's it so hard to see the truth How much more do I have to prove? I'm not your scapegoat What am I supposed to do When nothing I say, not matter how true, will make the actions of yesterday Easier for you Why can't you get over it? Why can't you move on? Where were you? The reflection that you see Does it haunt you daily? I shouldn't live in that shame I'm not the one to blame There is a little of me inside all of you I'm not your fucking scapegoat Why's it so hard to see the truth How much more do I have to prove? I'm not your scapegoat I'm not the one to blame There is a little of me inside all of you 12. Samsara
Instrumental
13. Scum Of The Earth
It's not the end of the world
But it sure fucking feels that way Tired of all the complaints What the fuck is left to say? We're wasting this life focusing on yesterday We'll never move forward this way Now we're feeling the ground shake Bruised, broken, abandoned We are the scum of the earth Cursed, beaten, forgotten We are the scum of the earth I bite down on my tongue Choking on the bile This place has become disgraced And I'd pull out my teeth before I'd smile Disgusted with the human race We destroy what we did not create Be careful when you throw stones You might get smashed with bricks Bruised, broken, abandoned We are the scum of the earth Cursed, beaten, forgotten We are the scum of the earth We are all diseased and crying inside It becomes hard to breathe, hard to feel Knowing nothing will survive Bruised, broken, abandoned We are the scum of the earth Cursed, beaten, forgotten We are the scum of the earth 14. Your Days Are Numbered
These eyes are watching every move that you make
You'll pay for your mistakes Your excuses are weak You are far from the king You're a fucking fake A bat without wings Your words fall on deaf ears You better believe your days are numbered I'll take you down Your reign of terror is coming to an end I see through the lies I'll take command away from you I'll expose every fucking truth You've reached the end of the line It's been a long time coming You better believe your days are numbered I'll take you down My hate continues to grow Don't bite the hand that feeds You better believe your days are numbered I'll take you down |
