02. Drowning In Tears

All is calm
Humanity in a constant bliss
Due to its superiority
Alone in the world...

Nothing upsets tranquillity
But for how long?
I feel the coldness lifting its head

For countless millennia
The gods that created us
Have watched us
And our evolution from above

The stars of the skies as their eyes
Trying to guide us to the right direction [ useless ]
Mankind was blinded by its own delusion of grandeur
And it did not respond to the efforts of the gods

We engage in atrocity
The void assails the life
Of pride and intolerance
The grave tranquillity
Enveloped us like silence

The embrace of cold desolates the beliefs
For sanctimonious pledge
It refines its iniquities
Insults our foreclosure

Misled by a false god
Mankind was headed for a certain doom
The gods left and forever watched
Humans make their mistakes
Waiting for the right time to end it all

And so humans were made extinct
By the same gods that they had abandoned
But now, everything can start again

The weak, insignificant signs of life
Introduce us pestilential disgrace

We shall encounter in dreams
Dreams sold to nightmares
And the pleasures begin

Death throned as life, the latent cry
None left to die, the crown of gore
Reign from the sky, behest to shame
Then shall you blame nevermore

I am the embrace of the gods
The gates of knowledge closed in me - in you

We shall encounter in dreams
Dreams sold to nightmares
And the pleasures end

03. Darklit Skies

And suddenly you awaken in a strange place
Who are you now, who were you before?
As you stop falling to sleep
You'll realise there's only night in your world
Who are you no more?

You recall the hues of sunlight
And the brightness of a day
But you don't notice its absence
As the dark morning turns to a gloomy day
You can't tell when it has become an ordinary night

You see the city change
Familiar people become different inside
Who are they now, who were they before?
Your memories are not your own
And your life belonged to someone else
A total loss of memories

I take the first step onwards
What horrors might I possess inside my head?
But all I see is silence
A numbing feeling that I haven't seen
What I'm not supposed to see.

A strange feeling that I was not born
Before I started to die
For birth is only a beginning
Of a long, cruel death

Destiny failed to give me life
It gave me someone's death instead
Misled race dreaming in reality... A reverie

We live in illusion
Chained to our spiral world

Trying to remember who I'm supposed to be
But haven't been yet
The loss of memories has turned
To an implanted truth

The same body I now possess
Yesterday maybe served someone else
A mortal coil with an altered soul
Sleeps through change

The sun fades out, introducing the night
Let in the darkness, brilliant as light
The something within us awakes

I took the last step onwards
The horrors that came out shattered the earth
Now there is all, but silence
Now I am the man who I was not supposed to be

The darklit skies gained light once again
But the darkness shall not ever end... never end...

04. Delusion

In a dream I dreamed I fell sleep
An endless nightmare begun
Twisted visions filled my tired eyes
The same story with new contents

Controversial thoughts
Now seen in a new way
I thought that I was asleep
But no, I'm you

Demolished pictures of
A dream never seen
It reminds me of you
Begging for deliverance

Antisocial thoughts
Still seen in a new way
I thought that I was you
But I'm still wide-awake

And the story begins...

Haunted by visions of an another soul
I'm not who I am
Innocent mind altered forevermore

I see a strange man in the mirror
It's almost inhuman
A distorted figure within me

The nightmare still continues
My mind has now two sides
The sleep has begun to live its own life
So why am I still awake?

Confusing thoughts
Not seen in the new way
I thought that I was awake
But still you exist in me

Finally, I awaken from the dream
A nightmare that was real
But still a fantasy...

05. Less Than Nothingness

Ghosts of the past appear to you and me
Unlike the dead and alive
You were born in the red heats of hell
But still you are cold inside and out
As I start to fear myself
This world we live in forces us to shout
There is no forgiveness in you
But still you are just like me
But I'm not like you

Moments of joy and happiness
Turn to a perpetual torment
Watch your kingdom become
A paradise of the dead and alive

I belong to death, and to you I'd kill
Only knowing is like emptiness what you can't fill

The lost safety of this world we live within
Is right beside you in the world you die in

The haunt of victims you looked straight into their eyes
Chains which attach to your feet, weaken your defies

Am I living a dead man's life or living my own life dead?
I'm preparing myself for death, for death is my only friend
The will to live is strong, but the will to die is stronger
Believe in me, I will take you deeper to nothingness

Sacred water, with it I wash my bloody hands
Its everlasting purity cleanses my foul soul

Covered in emptiness, in nothingness
Burnt in the flames of the end
Immanent creatures awaken by me and you
Cannot stop them, but neither can I
The eyes of the dead watch over me
We are all prisoners of our own lives
