Tracks



01. Rebirth

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
(Instrumental)

02. Elimination

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
There has to be something worth fighting for
Is there anything to convince me?
I'm trapped in society
Looking to find the fucking exit
At the mercy of mankind

Bring me Knowledge
Give me strength

The decision has already been conformed
Now we separate the relations
Masked from the world
I'm ready for this
Lets take control

Now incite together in a connected environment
Draining the shit we deal with everyday
If its support you're after
Then try to see me in a different way
Let your eyes see truth - Try to see me in a different way
Let your eyes see truth - Now conquer the raising threat
Of existing in the tension and strain we're in
I declare when the dangers upon us
I will destroy every aspect of it

03. The Accountable

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
It all crumbles beneath me
I can take the time to be here
I can take the kill
I walk back and forth
You're stuck between the walls
I will come forth
I try to reason but I'm still there
It is the other side of your words?
Where the meaning don't relate
So we compensate
The other side of my mind
Tries to make its way inside
My conscience won't be with me tonight
Thought i could see the light and you could see it too
Does this make me horrible?
My judgment fails to be the truth
Now with open ground at my feet
I conquer all the things detaining me
Habits fracture and try to drain
The wretched guilt that dwells in me

Try to justify yourself
It's your mistake - be accountable
Why do you blame the people around you?

04. Now Arise

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
Time is coming to an end.
Prepare for the worst to come.
You arise, but your life has run dry.

Show me the answers I've been looking for.
Where did they come from?

Nothing seems real anymore.
I am no stranger of hatred and lies.
We're lost and there's nothing left.
Fear is the only thing that keeps us alive.

Lose what you have in mind, what keeps us alive.
You all will be taken away.

Burn this place so we can celebrate.
A start of a brand new day.

New beginning, time for change.
New beginnings, time for change.

Don't always hide the fury and sit in silence.
The less I hear the more I'm scared.
Feel the victory and jump into a sea of serenity.
Let the water clean your dreams,
afraid to let go of everything.

Trying to keep unity and make a statement.
But you bleed, your head is spilling.

All the judgments, all the wars.
All the rivalry we face is leaking on the floor.

When will it be okay to come outside?

The storm is dying.
The rain is done.

The composure of my soul is harmonized by the sounds that travel into me.

Show me the answers I've been looking for.
Where did they come from?
Nothing seems real anymore,
I am no stranger to all of this bullshit.

Time is coming to an end.
Prepare for the worst, try to keep unity.
Make a statement but you bleed your head is spilling.
All the wars, all the rivalries.

The composure of my soul is harmonized by the sounds that travel into me

05. Live Like I'm Real

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
Echoes of your voice filling up the hallways
I still walk here and you still don't disappear
Disappear (No hesitation)
I will move on (It's been over done)
Enough of everything
It's been too long
Erase the facts - Erase the fucking past
This is the back of the front door
And I control you
/And I still walk here
And as a matter of timing crumbles
And leaves us alone again with the wreckage
It still smolders here
Erase the facts - Erase the fucking past
Enough of everything
It's been too long no looking back
I'll be alive - Live like I'm real
Disappear now
I will move on
I'm hoping it's tonight when I can turn out these lights
And be alive.

06. Starved

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
To starve and see all around us
The feast is ready to serve
Now enjoy the taste of reality
Seasons of change - How will you be replaced?
This isn't as easy as you think
Get on your knees

It's hard to see the truth in all of your lies
It's a memory to me

It's not gonna take any longer
Get ready to move along

The movement on
This is your deficiency
I'm starving here so give me peace
It's all around us but still we search

I see you there now I'm on fire
What you think is fucked -It makes no sense
What do you think I believe?
In this life - Let me take you to a new atmosphere
In this world
Time for a start - I now begin

Who is coming with me?
I'm ready to go back home
I'm not living the way I should
This seems to be my destiny - My reality
This seems to be my destiny - This is my fucking life
Nightmares of the future
I'm left alone uncontrolled

07. Exist

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
I heard you say something quite uninviting.
Are you aware the state we're in?
Hoping to cover the tracks behind us.

Try to let the tension in your hands release,
and exist in freedom.
What doesn't tear you apart gives you peace.
Exist in freedom.

Whats wrong here?
It turned to disaster.

Renounce your command.
The subject constructed your hate.
Now I shield myself from pain.
Showing my own expression,
in the midst of this disorientation.
I'm in the midst of a sinking wreck.

A choice to be affected or permit extinction.
Putting the power at your feet in your authority.
I won't lay my will down.
Renounce your command.

Try to let the tension in your hands release,
and exist in freedom.
What doesn't tear you apart gives you peace.
Exist in freedom.

08. Put To Rest

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
Are you surprised that we ended up this way?
How could I not see this coming?
Let us show you how we operate
Give us the meaning of devotion
You lead us to the edge of corruption
And threw us in a pit of despair
Now we know you facing endless obstructions
The results of our concerns are near
Take notice of a changing dawn

My blood flows faster and faster
Feeling the pierce of destruction

I remember when the deal was almost new
We felt invincible and ready to
Play out of the situations
Now it's become too much for me to care
About who's up on the chain
Who's ahead of us today?
See what's its worth to reach a solution

Forward or reverse?
I don't know in this abyss
Gaining speed or just stopping faster
I can't master these thoughts

Show me the meaning of devotion
You lead us to the edge of corruption
And threw us in a pit of despair
Show me the meaning of devotion
You lead us to the edge of corruption
So receive then present
And be put to rest

Be put to rest
My dreams were just fiction
A loss of intention
The purposes you hold dear are not much to me
There dragging me down
Be put to rest
Stop pushing the limits
And be put to rest

09. A Descent

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
I paint these walls to block my point of interest
There's no escape from these thoughts this time
I may be hiding but what other choice do i have left?

My safeties are at rest
So now we are

Passing the problems off
And throwing issues around that can't stand to be in motion
So slow down and cease to a halt
I'm only dragging myself down
Down to a state of dissatisfaction
Stuck in the corner of sadness
Is there anybody there to hear the cries?
They turn their heads the other way

I will never really be content
This cheap joyless buss is inadequate
I'm choosing the solutions carefully
I'm resolving

The present location of my conscience
Lies deep below the foundation in me
Wasn't aware of the consequences facing me
Descending slowly to the reaches of hell
To strangle and suffocate myself

10. A Higher Place

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
Born into this skin
And made to walk before my wounds heal
Begin to start - to start to question
And make a new point of view

After all this suffering
You will bleed
You will see that the blood is clean
Put this up now just start over
Efforts to change our ways dead and broken
Can['t stop what we have started
It's clear to me that this is over
It's over

The last one left to see this through
Here now we stand in peace and gratify

Lost in pain and made to wait
For everything you will be
Believe in nothing
Fuck the obscene
And remain
And it feels like we're going nowhere so let me take you to a higher place
I've seen this, this action
That made you hard to believe in
Stealing the truth ripped from inside

Why should I look at my situation unsatisfied?
Next thing i see wont be a surprise

11. An Ascent

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
I am with you
Feel the shadows close on me
Losing out so try and see
My eyes will
Falling back into the ground

Flight drags on
Pick up yourself quietly
And let the next victim be your last

But this time a moment has already passed
This time I can see us looking back with a smile

Travel to a place be anxious and lets change
Retrace the way that we came
Let's never go back again
Forward we supply

We supply the weight on your shoulders
We're pushing until the last one subsides
Cast me down the depths
Your vision is unholy
But I'm not the one to save you
My outward march resides.

12. Thrive

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
We need to agree
I have witnessed
An abomination filling up the room
Like I should have cared
You know you've been here way too long
Restore what has been done before the end
Factor in the possibility of my life
Give me the reasons to question the freedoms of life
So I can survive

Don't you ever go out of turn?
Do you ever listen to the answers?
Don't you ever see what's going on?
Restore what has been done before the end
It will come down in time
It's all on your side
Show me what gives you strength
We trusted you now how do we proceed?

Reaching out and receiving tranquility
Are you feeling serene?

Though we thought it was all okay
We don't warrant this covenant
The agreement was thin and weak
We need support you can't sustain

You convinced me of everything
But the words don't reflect my sentiment
You could never hold on
You could never face it

13. Faces Of Death

Music by Cameron Losch and Lee McKinney
Lyrics by Ronnie Canizaro and Joe Buras
Drop my head in the concrete
Looking up at the sky
Reaching closer to my demise
Walking through this journey
No purpose or time
Reaching closer to my demise
Walking through this journey
No purpose or time
It captivates the eye unveiling the beauty
I'm where I need to be
Spinning with the sickness overcome by the change
My head and my mind co-inciting in assault
My actions transform to contention
So I'm disaluding the truth
Trading my will to comatose existence
A price that never paid and always be owed
Keep us alive hanging on a thread
And crawling forward

It's getting closer and closer to my demise
Looking up at the sky
Drop myself in the concrete
Looking up at the sky
IT was, Was it the end?
Bodies were deceiving me
Faces of death.
