No truth, no lie
No truth, no lie No truth, no lie It twists and turns Into something that is not to be What truth is left What's abandoned as the life flew by Our words are broken Commit to sacrifice Betrayal of the code Thrust into nothingness No truth, no lie Our words are broken Our subconscious bias Confirmed what we already believe There is no message There is no value We give shelter to our false ideas Commit to sacrifice Betrayal of the code Thrust into nothingness Tear our thoughts into splinters Set the sense Forced to remember Words get thrown Out of focus As we test our will Dissolve to nothing Break all bounds of unfair holding Trap this light to journey's end We're breaking We're breaking down Our words are broken Commit to sacrifice Betrayal of the code Thrust into nothingness No truth, no lie Our sacrifice Betray the code Into nothingness 02. The Science Of Noise
To connect
And make sense of it all Freedom lies Through the chaos within We measure what is everything but real On our crooked scale Bend it to our will Dream it into form Bend it to our will Dream it into form Shape it in our image The science of noise Fill in the blanks And open the gates Descend upon Those who trespass against us Torn from the sheltering city of faith As crooked as they come Bend it to our will Dream it into form Bend it to our will Dream it into form Shape it in our image The science of noise One clear cut line That separates it all We challenge the void To barely see beyond We look until we see What our truth now will be Now Bend it to our will And dream it into form Bend it to our will Dream it into form Shape it in our image The science of noise 03. Uniformity
It all comes out
In desire we forgot to face Take down ambition For in our minds we will always fail The faceless remember The hours and the fallen words Connect the fallacies Detect autonomy There is a limit To the never ending sky We must come to terms Admit we are defeated We must come to terms With bias and deception Stand up and be counted In uniformity It sets a high mark For what our minds can endure Is there life in the distance A faint beacon of light Let us fall to the inner ceiling Of everything we say The endless resistance Decides upon the fallen words Direct the agony To a non-response And forgiveness To an idealized mirage We must come to terms Admit we are defeated We must come to terms With bias and deception Stand up and be counted In uniformity It informs all decisions And challenges us to dare 04. The Silence In Between
Exaggerate what the words won't say
Build and arguement against yourself Sit this one out In a silent treatment The walls are coming down All we need is One to fail, one to break One to take it all away What if we crumble What if we fall Where is the flame That torch the soul Truth when spoken Dies down to nothing We challenged light and flame, And settle for the dark With pressure built to a point Deflated before it's time We set our world on fire Yet lost the will to burn Not set a tone but a distance The silence in between Whatever validates The anger kept inside The walls are coming down All we need is One to fail, one to break One to take it all away What if we crumble What if we fall Where is the flame That torch the soul Truth when spoken Dies down to nothing Nothing ties the world to me Not a page of history Cannot talk the pain away Nothing ties the world to me The silent treatment gets to me So few and far between These great dividing acts Behind those silent eyes The walls are coming down All we need is One to fail, one to break One to take it all away What if we crumble What if we fall Where is the flame That torch the soul Truth when spoken 05. Apathetic
Take the loss to the heart
A new beginning Start anew Apocalyptic bliss Lost to the hours Bare essential needs Succumb to this Non-reality Sometimes I feel What silence best describes Sometimes I feel Apathetic to this life Apathetic to this life Turn your back On helpless failures past Awakening Shut the mind To equal parts of nothing Reality now Wicked The sense of nothing lost Will of the steerless ones Sometimes I feel What silence best describes Sometimes I feel Apathetic to this life Apathetic to this life Face away from the garish light of day Remembering something I supposed to have believed Reality now Sometimes I feel What silence best describes Sometimes I feel Apathetic to this life Apathetic to this life Apathetic Apathetic Apathetic To this life 06. What Only You Know
So after all that has been said
Can we find a way back to when The days were ours to take And nothing ever hurt And we failed to offer or forgive Reach out for the favors Take down the hopeful light For even the broken Even the broken break In the silence that only you know What hides in the emptiness That only you know When the night is long And the will is weak Even the broken break It is a pain you will never know Held up to a light you once shone For every hour in my head The mind distorts So what can the broken ever say Phase out the noise pollution Tune out of insanity's dream Take the hopeless Take the hopeless down In the silence that only you know What hides in the emptiness That only you know In the darkness That only you know In the silence That only you know What hides in the emptiness That only you know 07. Endtime Hearts
You burned the ruin
The torched remains And set the precedent Of innocence betrayed With the coming of our ages Will the chasm clear To identify the pieces And gather what is lost The hours feel so different Yet everything's the same The hours feel so different Now bring it out into the open Full disclosure now Bring it out so we can Start all over again Take another stab at honesty Full disclosure now Get it done so we can Start all over again Righting the imbalance In a difference of hearts Close to breakage Soon to fall Fought the urge To carry through Held on to the real Sacrifice the ego Sacrifice the I It changes the perception And alters disbelief It changes the perception Now bring it out into the open Full disclosure now Bring it out so we can Start all over again Take another stab at honesty Full disclosure now Get it done so we can Start all over again The hours feel so different Yet everything's the same The hours feel so different Now bring it out into the open Full disclosure now Bring it out so we can Start all over again Take another stab at honesty Full disclosure now Get it done so we can Start all over again 08. State Of Trust
Like a crack in the clean slate
I see emotion take over the rational We are the favoured sons of reason With tools at our disposal Squandered day by day Strip the thoughts Heal the system Take the original back It is inside me It is inside me now If this is all that I remember Can I ever trust myself? Like a flash or a fleeting glance I see movement in the corner of my eye Now the mind goes into overdrive To process and deceive How will I ever know? Give up the experience To halt the fictional mind It is inside me It is inside me now Block out all that makes it painful Set the pieces back in place If this is all that I remember Can I ever trust myself? I track movement Like light behind my eyes Made to match up With what I tell myself each day My experience Is what I do not know And one I cannot trust It infects the marrow A virus of ideas It is inside me It is inside me now What my mind is telling me Must come undone If this is all that I remember Can I ever trust myself? 09. Weight Of The End
I feel the silence come
In rooms I now detest The chill of the touch In infinite night I thought I had it One life One fear Too much to handle Too much to take One life One fear Too much to handle Too much to take I held it as my own And took for granted What I knew Come inside To what the darkness pushed away Set out to find me The cold of the thought In infinite touch The switch gets thrown One life One fear Too much to handle Too much to take One life One fear Too much to handle Too much to take What are we missing here? What have we been told? We must be the shield And not the sword Be the shield Not the sword One life One fear Too much to handle Too much to take One life One fear Too much to handle Too much to take 10. None Becoming
This life was thrown
Out to the elements for failure This life was over before it had it's time A distance blurred the edges And sickened the resolve Our overturned perception Held forgotten virtues true We failed to hold our promise Of never letting go The doubt is now inoperable As faith is to the blind Man-made virus of deception We must vaccinate the mind Alter in our climate Tune the world to our will The dust has settled in the broken structure Is now one with this shattered beauty In timeless indifference Become one Become one Become none The upturned soil, the reversed sky Mock the promise of our last hope Skybound in our will We seep beneath the surface layer Become one Become one Become one Become none 11. Immemorial
Between the white and the black
Where the grey interacts Within the margin of reason and lies A line must be drawn Fear of an opposing Thought is ours Ages upon ages of distrust Feed the war machine That's in our minds Fundamental truths Now set aside Territorial immemorial The anger attached to the bone Digs in deep and poisons the core The scorn of the nefarious scribe Must be heard through the ages Tune the instrument to reasons light Measure what is equal, what is right The venom spreads itself Through thought and word Boundless and protective At the core Territorial immemorial Break momentum again The forces of will is upon us If man is the measure Then anything goes Draw from and interpret the absurd Borne on antiquated lost ideals From the oppressor To the blinded prisoner Our goals are just the same Territorial immemorial 12.
