02. Beyond Within
"Welcome to the fall"
Welcome millennium, the fall of planet hate Welcome the end my friend, all the world's the stage Welcome to the future, the world is black no turning From the consequence of ignorance Welcome to the fall Beyond within, enact, enable Create the past, nonexistent fables Welcome to the fall Tension, delirium, growing everyday Another suicide shocks the world again, I watch in apathy Bleed until tomorrow, whosoever does not believe in me Welcome to the fall Beyond within, enact, enable Create the past, nonexistent fables Welcome to the fall Can I bring you down again, can I make you feel? Can I lift you up into the dreaming trip surreal? Can I taste the future shock, spit out all the games? Do you know my name, do you know my number? Cracking under strange constrictions, Mr. Ordinary Visionary Welcome millennium, the fall of planet hate Welcome the end my friend, all the world's the stage Welcome to the future, the world is black no turning From the consequence of ignorance Beyond within, enact, enable Create the past, nonexistent fables Beyond within, enact, enable Create the past, nonexistent fables Welcome to the fall of one man's sanity 03. The Death Of Passion
"Time has no meaning for me. She is gone,
and the void speaks to me" You paint the sky in obsidian lies And come what may never will I know how you changed time The riptide lies ahead, all my passions now are dead I can see the path you never thought to follow I feel so hollow I stand before you, a shadow of a man Behind these eyes self destruction swims through my mind I'm confusion and contempt, I am the void You are the emptiness of black tomorrow I feel so hollow You paint the sky in obsidian lies And come what may never will I know how you changed time The riptide lies ahead, all my passions now are dead I can see the path you never thought to follow I feel so hollow You are diseased You are deceiver 04. I Am The Dog
"The darkwave came again last night.
I want it all to end, I want the world to end" Every night the dream is the same I sit here waiting for the world to end but it never ends And everything I used to be has spiraled into insanity Every night I sweat and bleed in her name The darkwave comes, sanity slips away She screams from the alcove "I am the dog" She was born in the year of the dog She never would betray the world I never saw Blinded eyes that never see shattered into infinity Every night the dream is the same The darkwave comes, sanity slips away She screams from the alcove "I am the dog" Every night the dream is the same I suffer wading through the endless waves of empty disdain And everything I used to be has spiraled into insanity Every night I sweat and bleed in her name The darkwave comes, sanity slips away She screams from the alcove The darkwave comes, sanity slips away She screams from the alcove "I am the dog" 05. Dreaming Neon Black
"Again it poured over me in waves.
When she left with them she said I must break free from the dark. I tried to tell her of their poison, she chose not to hear. She was never seen again" Sometimes when I'm alone I still feel you Your breath on my neck, you're still with me And I'm still dreaming neon black I wait for you, to taste your unknown world The clock spins to time that must mean nothing Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown Shifting shaping currents flow in memory swim through me Meet me in the drowning pool of tears And wash away my innocence and fear Sometimes I wonder where you are, can you feel my tears? I never knew what changed you Did they paint your dreams in pale shades? I wait for you, you know you cannot hide Division from within invalidates suffering Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown Shifting shaping currents flow in memory swim through me Meet me in the drowning pool of tears And wash away my innocence I am a child of light living in your mind The pain, the unknowing washes away in time Until then will you meet me whenever I call to you? Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown Shifting shaping currents flow in memory swim through me Meet me in the drowning pool of tears and wash away my innocence Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown Shifting shaping currents flow in memory swim through me Meet me in the drowning pool of tears And wash away my innocence Meet me My only cure won't you meet me? In the drowning pool of fate the moon and the sun still wait Won't you meet me? I suffer silently for our love, the jester has lost his dove 06. Deconstruction
"My perfect reflection swims
through the drowning pool. The sky is gone. My world is in deconstruction" The fallen that dreams suicide Takes the needle, instead of the gun The victim who self crucifies can't realize Christ is a weapon that chisels at our lives Deconstruction The martyr takes his aim and wounds the holy man And on the eighth day God made the art of war And laughing planned the end Who will tend the garden when the snake swallows the light? Who will eat the decay when the worms have lost their sight? Who will rape the weak when there's nothing left to gain? Who will till the soil of these barren black remains? Deconstruction, deconstruction Who will lick my wounds when they take away my speech? Will you stand in line while the shepherd hunts his sheep? Could you see tomorrow if I took away your eyes? Can you crawl from under new age prophecy's despise? Deconstruction, deconstruction Deconstruct my reality and let me slip away, I am the dog Who will tend the garden when the snake swallows the light? Who will eat the decay when the worms have lost their sight? Who will rape the weak when there's nothing left to gain? Who will till the soil of these barren black remains? Deconstruction, deconstruction Deconstruction, deconstruction Our world is in deconstruction Our world 07. The Fault Of The Flesh
"Sometimes bitterness is all you can hold on to,
and within the bitterness I realized my weakness" To see the fault of unrequited love There is no truth, there is no purity, there is no love Flesh is the weakness, flesh is the fault We are embodiment of all the world's wrongs No time to look back we are gone No time to regret the seeds we've thrown away Man is the parasite, man is the cause We are destroyers and creators, our precious flaw We are the architects of fate We are impure for we burn all we berate We are but flesh and flesh is the weakness We are born of blood sinew and bone We're all just spinning in this useless hole in time On our way into the black unknown Man is the parasite, man is the cause We are destroyers and creators, our precious flaw Flesh is the weakness, flesh is the fault We are embodiment of all the world's wrongs No time to look back we are gone No time to regret the seeds we've thrown away We are but flesh and flesh is the weakness We are born of blood sinew and bone We're all just spinning in this useless hole in time On our way into the black unknown I am but flesh, and flesh is weak I am but flesh, and flesh is weak 08. The Lotus Eaters
"Why is this happening to me? Why have
I been forsaken? Nothing numbs the pain any longer......please....I'm slipping away" We fall into the spaces blind, the puzzle so unkind The lotus eaters fly we watch the random pattern form, insidious and cold And bloom into the unknown Please God why can't you hear us? Please God why aren't you listening? We take the hand of fate in vain, and wonder why your will Seems cruel controlled and illogical Do words fall on deaf ears, are we just too small? Please make us understand Please God why can't you hear us? Please God why aren't you listening? Please God why must we fear you? Please God why did you take her away? Please God why can't you hear us? Please God why aren't you listening? Please God why must we fear you? Please God why did you take her away? Are we your children? Are we lost? 09. Poison Godmachine
"I know what it wants now...the void
has swallowed the light and the machine wants my soul" The media machine knows what to do It knows how to feed the poison to you Useless information for your useless little lives The tv lies and pacifies Do you believe everything you see? Children of the void come follow me Denounce your faith and penance the savior is unseen I am the new drug, your poison godmachine....poison Poison godmachine Poison is a word, God is a word used for fear In subtlety we obey through ink and broadcast wave The doubts and fears that shadow media decay Deprogram this affliction and the cathode ray unclean I am the last nail, the empty soulless screen.....soulless Poison godmachine And we eat the poison, we created the poison godmachine 10. All Play Dead
"I know she can hear me still.
I know she can feel me. The velvet sleep has stilled her, for they are feeding, while time is ever shifting" You are the wine of intoxicating faith You are the axis of time, I am so blind Bear witness to freedom's fall Tomorrow kiss goodbye a little more, as they watch us all All play dead I'll sleep in this quiet room where no one sees, I'll play dead All play dead Play dead never speak, just assign the blame According to their game and chase them down the drain All play dead I'll sleep in this quiet room where no one sees, I'll play dead I'll just sit here quietly and watch them feed, all play dead All play dead Bear witness to freedom's fall Tomorrow kiss goodbye a little more, as they watch us all All play dead I'll sleep in this quiet room where no one sees, I'll play dead I'll just sit here quietly and watch them feed, all play dead All play dead All play dead All play dead All play dead All play dead 11. Cenotaph
"And I will build this in her name.
The dream will not allow failure, only servitude, for I am it's slave" Foreboding fear trickles down the spine Into the pool, resonating Behind the wall the dreamer lies in velvet sleep She must be still, never make a sound Awake....... awaken the dreamer Awake....... awaken Awake....... awaken the dreamer Awake....... where are you my love? We build our walls around our games We decompose, dreamers never really die She lies unknown, the cenotaph in her name Awake....... awaken the dreamer Awake....... awaken Awake....... awaken the dreamer Awake....... where are you my love? She lies unknown She lies unknown She lies unknown She lies unknown She hides 12. No More Will
"For some there are no choices"
No more will to live, I see the world fade No more hope inside, my life means nothing anyway Just shades of gray, I slip away again Feed me from the heart of your denial The velvet sleep is conviction only fools know Dry your own eyes, I can't sympathize Plague your own dreams, I won't be following Free me from this sphere of confusion These tears of dust are the tears from one who knows why Dry your own eyes, I can't sympathize Plague your own dreams, I won't be falling Fly beyond the dreaming, fly beyond our being Turn and face the mirror, the answers come, clear as glass Fly beyond the dreaming, fly beyond our being Turn and face the mirror, the answers come, clear as glass I still feel you now, you are the falling rain The voice that stills the pain, I am the lover gone insane I must be strong, for love burns ever long 13. Forever
"What has been put asunder
shall again be whole" In this neon black gloom I still see her face She comes to me bringing darkest hour, I am forlorn The pain is reborn You are forever in my heart you never died You are forever I still wonder where you are I know you're dreaming, I know you're at peace I'll meet you in the dreamtime Whenever you call me I'll go under, I'll swim through you You are forever in my heart you never died You are forever I still wonder where you are I know you're dreaming neon black "As the curtain calls, and the cast recedes, I am all that ever was and all that ever will be. In wither and repose this frayed chapter now does close, and fade into neon black" |
