Tracks



01. Watch It Burn

No longer on your side, No longer within your prison
No longer here to speak with a positive spin on society

So sick of your politics, so sick of your fading religions
So sick of the endless lies that ignite and divide; it's homicide

This is the reason your walls are coming down

Did you even hear a word I said? Torch it all; Torch it all
Did you even hear a word I said? Watch it burn

The writing's on the wall - Watch it burn

So tired of your ignorance, So tired of your passing trends
So tired of your predictive script, You're all dead inside [x2]

It was supposed to be better than this
Can you imagine why?
The path of no return has killed all reason to believe

A paradox in the vow you've taken. Engulfed in your own world
The tried and true are now unspoken. God save you all

Did you even hear a word I said? Torch it all; Torch it all
Did you even hear a word I said? Watch it burn

The writing's on the wall. The writing's on the wall. Watch it burn

Can you imagine why? - The writing's on the wall
We're all paralyzed - Ours has died

Paralyzed - Hope has died. Paralyzed - Our hope has died
Our hope has died [x4]. Our hope is dead

Burn your eyes on our setting sun, Burn out your eyes

02. Ruination Of The Lost

Like the blade that clipped the wings
And the plague that's drenched the wind
it's now our blood in therising flood

Resentless: All conquering Terra
Demons breath will that and drown all faith and light
Blackened clouds bestow our plight
Raped and marred for their opulence: Opulence
She can and will erase. She will erase

This Loss: Contagious. Bury us Blood; Bury us Blood
Befallen on the masses, Bury us in Blood

Besieged by the coming infliction
Forever blinded by ignorance
Forgotten steps we've sealed our own fate
Ignored and jeered the vast warnings
Demons breath awakes: Demons breath awakes
She can and will erase, Erase

This Loss: Contagious. Bury us Blood; Bury us Blood
Befallen on the masses, Bury us in Blood

Ruination of the Lost
Befalls the masses
Burial us Blood

This Loss: Contagious. Bury us Blood; Bury us Blood
Befallen on the masses, Bury us in Blood

03. Shadows Of The Light

Turn it off; Turn it off. (I) Won't make that mistake
(I've) Been down this road before

Think again; Think again. I will not compromise
(I) Won't compromise anything

Beat down; (I'm) At the end of my rope
Beat down; (I) Can't stand these changes
Beat down; Headfirst I take on survival: survival

Try to tear my down
I won't hesitate to stand face to face with my worst enemy

Standing tall in the face of defeat. Go it alone at my discretion
The hammer falls whenever my will says it does, I promise you

I've fallen all too far, Obsession with the shadow in the light
This constant war will lead me home
This constant war will force me onward

Try to tear me down, Headfirst I take on survival

I fell all too far, Obsession with the shadow in the light
I'm at a constant war, Yet this strife has carried me to my home

I've fallen all too far, Tear me down
Lost in the shadows in the light, Tear me down

Only word
It's been a lifetime of fueled obsessions; a promise kept is my only word
Only word

Lost in the shadows in the light, Tear me down

A promise kept is my only word
Only word, it will be kept. I promise you.

04. Eyes Of Black

Fall into line - upon creation - There is hell to pay
Fall into line - life of the mundane - There is hell to pay

Time: Our vengeful warden
Existence brings forth pain and loss
Make head of all the costs for your end is drawing near

Your end is drawing near

Through all I've seen
These eyes have turned to black
Stonewalled as my credence falls
These eyes have turned to black

Fall into line- death and disease - There is hell to pay
Shatter this life - all consuming - There is hell to pay

Through all I've seen
These eyes have turned to black
Sonewalled as my credence falls
These eyes have turned to black

The end is drawing near - forever black

Your end is near

Through all I've seen
These eyes have turned to black
Stonewalled as my credence falls
These eyes have turned to black

Forever black

05. Last Wish

This life will soon come to an end
I'll leave my convictions

Day by day
I feel this life slipping away
Much further away
I know I've lost it all
Hold out your hands
and take me from my misery
There's no coming back from this
I'll never wake

I'll never wake; I Never

I never wanted to leave you all
I never wanted to leave this life
Nothing can save my now
No one can save me

I was left with no choice

Freedom. My last wish to be
Held on all I could
Free me from this misery
You know I'll never wake.

06. Arise The War Cry

We must battle on, Through barren lands and waste
While there is still light of day

Allegiance to the cursed and tortured ways
to plain sight we sow the seeds for apathy

Bury us in our sorrow, Erode our strength
Bury us in our sorrow, shadowed and silenced

Battle on Battle on
Through barren lands and waste
Battle on Battle on
While there's still light of day

The time has come to ignite
Enraged in a venom haze
Cleared of the cloak of shadows
Headstrong to shake our claim

Drown away our sorrow
Fuels inner strength
Drown away our sorrow
A war cry cleads us to this light

Into this fight, There's no surrender
I refuse to fall silent, I refuse
There's no surrender

Battle on Battle on
Through barren lands and waste
Battle on Battle on
While there's still light of day

Arise the war cry - like it will be your last
Arise the war cry [x2]
Like it is your last. Arise the war cry

Battle on Battle on
Through barren lands and waste
Battle on Battle on
While there's still light of day

Arise the war cry

07. Equinox

The damage is done
Now the darkness settles in
This silence is deafening

Yet I keep walking on
to see it all fase to dark
And I keep walking on
to find there's no way out

Through these shadows I tread
Yet I keep walking on

08. Coming Of The Dark

This marks the end of innocence
Collapse now the common ground
Beneath it all are fears of destiny
As the bastard man cometh

Concealed the Omens howl
Blinded the second sight
Smothered: Smothered
To mask the coming of the dark

And as I cling to this world
I know there is cold blood running
Alive yet live to curse the days
I know there is cold blood running

Confess all arrogance
Confide in circling wolves
Ferocious blades bleeding the lifeblood
As the bastard man forges on

Capsized in periled plight
Is this the only road?
Alone: Alone
Will darkness lead to light?

And as I cling to this world
I know there is cold blood running
Alive yet live to curse the days
I know there is cold blood running
And as I cling to this world
I know there is cold blood running
Alive yet live to curse the days
This blood is running strong

I was bound by the hands of false destiny
No longer will I follow

No longer will I follow hands of false destiny

09. The Fallen

Broken - the seems burst in a rush
A catalysmic horror story pens its' lust
Collision makes a call to change a certain path
Full disbelief takes its hold
Delay the wrath
Delay wrath

This is for the lost
This is for the fallen
You will remain in my world until I rest

This unrelenting test
The sting of memories
has chased the shadow dark
To chase them long enough
would end in certain death
No longer solid ground
- Now grayed the autumn leaf
A barren road

Upon the pages of our path
Bringing great calamity
Contagious this loss will surely ruin
There's great calamity ahead

This is for the lost
This is for the fallen
For you'll remain in my world until I rest

Until I rest
You will remain

10. Overcome

Now - are you afraid or is the heart set on its time?
Cold - the silence reigns do we close our blackened eyes?
I'm calling on our testament to overcome
I'm calling on
It's now or never

Overcome
I'm calling on my testament to overcome
I'm calling on
To overcome

We stand strong
We won't break
Side by side we overcome

Now deliver us from all the hell i've seen
Now deliver us for there's fire in these veins
We're calling on the strengths that I've come to know
I'm calling on
It's now or never

Overcome
I'm calling on the strengths that I've come to know
I'm calling on
To overcome

We stand strong
We won't break
Side by side we overcome

11. Disillusion

So much disdain
So much hatred
Disillusion with this world;
Betrayal is the focal point of my dissension
I tried to keep it right
But with no remorse
I was left to die in the gutter
Nothing remains to strive for

No more
Consumed by the binds of failure
No more
Where the fuck did I go wrong?
Lies; Lies
Repulsed by all you stand for
Lies; Lies
Faith failed me

Stabbed in the back
The blood's still warm, the blood's still warm
These fallacies
They've claimed the best and shown the worst
They've shown our worst
They all strive to make their mark
It's still Impostors Kingdom
You failed me
Now I will fail you

No more
Consumed by the binds of failure
No more
Where the fuck did I go wrong?
Lies; Lies
Repulsed by all you stand for
Lies; Lies
Faith failed me

You fucking failed me.
