01. The Damnation Clockwork

Music by Hourswill
Lyrics by Nuno Damião
(Do not be afraid)

02. Vows Of Submission

Music by Hourswill
Lyrics by Nuno Damião
Welcome to a world ruled by mediocrity
Shadows that pull the strings of our reality
Twisting the truth to fit their purpose and their greed

All awareness of the situation on our own society
Twisted by the channels which are controlled to feed lies and disbelief
Ignorance prevails through this sedative sleep

Slaves of the New World Order, we are born to be
Revolving endlessly upon our broken dreams

Like rats within a maze we wander aimlessly

Blind eyes can't see what is made to keep them in their place
Your future lies in hands that care not for your suffering
Controlling your own thoughts through programmed ways to bear your fears
As all common men sink further in the servitude of slaves

Embrace all forms of entertaining nothingness
Conform, for you have not the will to be set free
Vow to submission and get down upon your knees

Evade from reality so cold, close your eyes and go to sleep
Let the vultures eat your flesh and your will

Still, we're choking on reality
With no hopes to escape it

03. Inevitable Collapse

Music by Hourswill
Lyrics by Nuno Damião
Depleting all that's left below the Sun
A sense of struggle that has come to end
The earth will become but a sterile ground
Where nothing will last to witness the fall of all our hope

The dead end comes with warnings to behold
No understanding on our arrogance
The limit's drawn and days will come to pass
The hours grow shorter and the blade will fall upon us all

Powerless, oblivious to our surroundings
Uncertainty, control of things is out of reach

When overcome by time
All our deeds will fade away
Echoes of what used to be
With time reduced to nothingness
All things die and fade away
Just fade away

From dust you came, to dust you shall go
As nothing will stand for time will engulf the earth

04. Dead End Memory

Music by Hourswill
Lyrics by Nuno Damião
Breathless
For air I gasp once again to see
These chains are binding me
I'm but a hollow shell, with torment born from the inside
The deepest hell within me

This savage life of pain and misery
Has cursed me to the point of no return
In agony my days to be foretold
Dragging me into a lifeless form

Worthless
All my achievements seem to be
Portraits of nothingness
This knot upon my neck left me with nothing but despair
I curse this season bleak

No will left to greet another rising dawn
My path seems so astray
Empty days just fade away
To be forever gone

Rise to see the infamy bestowed upon myself
In this dead end memory I will again remain

Rise to see upon this infamy
Rise to see this dead end memory

Shattered
The peace of mind I cannot reach
A pledge of suffering
The hope that I once had is now replaced by endless void
Existence will now cease

This savage life of pain and misery
Has cursed me to the point of no return
In agony my days to be foretold
Dragging me into a lifeless form

No will left to greet another rising dawn

05. Lessons Unlearned

Music by Hourswill
Lyrics by Nuno Damião
Once the whole world was ablaze with lunacy paving our way
Delusions of grandeur where justified, fuelled by hate
A legacy filled with our horror and shame
All reason reduced into a killing haste

Innocence was stripped away from mankind and never regained
Life cut down and dimmed to a number in casualty count
Just meat to be thrown at the enemy's line
And to feed production for the war machine

Beg for their mercy, but none you will find
All that is left are remnants of a dying world
This illness will always just bring us suffering
But all will be forgot as time slowly unfolds

All the dust has settled and time's marching on
Healing the wounds that slowly fade away
Just records of a lost time in our books of History
Until the thirst for power leads us once again astray

Have we learned our lesson so well
That this entire nightmare will cease and never come back to us again?
I admit, my hopes must be refrained
Will we raise destruction to means
That have never been seen in this world before?
Well, the truth is cruelty lingers and strains
As humanity slowly fades into the grey

06. Atrocity Throne

Music by Hourswill
Lyrics by Nuno Damião
Lies and hypocrisy just seems to lead us through this world
With the urge to consume all its soul

As all our deeds are justified to feed the greed of the elite that reigns
Injustice takes its toll on you

Behold our leaders gathered
Their will is much too strong so
Kneel and praise your mighty saviors

Exploited, drained you to your demise
Just stand in line to be the next one to die to fulfill their thrills

Silently just watch as all the seeds of our future will decay
And turn your back upon this pain

As ingorance will turn to blame, to haunt you 'till there's nothing left but shame
Accomplice to his crime for doing nothing

All that will remain within this silence are fragments of disgrace
That we conceal upon the weakness of our beliefs

Drained of dignity, just crawl up to the nothingness you've gained
The comfort of autocracy

Just close your eyes as sanctioned genocide extends your wealth and keeps you safe
Indifferent to this suffering

The hands that guide you, kill you
The masses gathering to
Worship, extol, pay the tribute

Just reaping all the profits
Upon the wings of tyranny we ensure this soulless living

As ignorance will turn to blame, to haunt you 'till there's nothing left but shame
Accomplice to this crime for doing nothing
All that will remain within this silence are fragments of disgrace

07. Nothing Divine

Music by Hourswill
Lyrics by Nuno Damião
Reflections caged beneath disgrace with nothing to reveal
Oppressed by demons haunting me that drain away my will
Obsession

The faith of men who understand nothing
Conceptions failed in modern ways, conform in misery
Our knowledge drained in hallowed games, a sullen liberty
Deception

The seed of which ignorance feeds is alive
The emptiness upon they preach is nothing but our fears
No answers and no secrets left behind and never to be revealed

No darkness more obscure can claim our dignity
Then ignorance disguised as holiness and faith
The death of reason is self-evident on words of holy men and human agony

The faith of men who understand nothing

And when there's nothing left to gain from the empty lives on which you feed
I wonder how you will further bring us down?

And now I realized, I've become aware
Of the lies you breed to turn man against himself

This truth will set me free from your web of deceit
I submit my will to someone none other than me

08. Weight Of Vengeance

Music by Hourswill
Lyrics by Nuno Damião
I've been waiting in anticipation for you to fail
To see you finally pay for all your sins
This frustration that I feel to see you rise with no one to stand against you
Just won't fade away

All these things cannot be erased
All these things cannot be denied

Taste this pain I have inside
And understand why
I can't just forgive and forget

I feel this hate building inside of me and gaining strength
again and again

And soon I won't be able to contain it,
as feelings grow and overflow

No justice can bring sympathy
Can't be deprived of all my dignity
I could not stand to live that way
I promise, I'll make you pay

Feel it inside, growing everyday
And let this hate become my way

Let go of your fears, as nothing else remains
This rage inside I now embrace

Stand up, let it out and fight
Let this be your strength and might
I can't deny this is my will

This hate just consumes and drains
And won't stop 'till we're standing face to face
And see you beg upon your knees
