Heretic (USA) - Breaking Point lyrics



Tracks



01. Heretic

I walk alone
Where others dare not go
Walk hand in hand with death
Dare to speak my mind
Believe my ways are right
Only to be condemned

Oh no
That feelings coming in
Don't turn your back
On the Heretic

Victim of defiance
In your world of sin
A stab to the back
Wander not alone
Question the unknown
Before judgement

02. And Kingdoms Fall

Each breath a struggle
Your dreams slip away
Blinded, reality
Gets harder and harder to face
Killing themselves
What can explain
A moment of pleasure for a lifetime of pain
Killing themselves
It's such a waste

Dare to realize
It's never too late
You can't brush it off
As just a dream
It's never too late to change

And Kingdoms rise
And Kingdoms fall
Down will come baby cradle and all

Lured in, prisoners
To its domain, crippled
It watches you bleed
What a waste

Dependency grows
Need more and more
With nothing to show
The endless war

Life slips through your hands

03. The Circle

Condemn before they understand
Censorship is out of hand
Quick to judge and slow to learn
Afraid to let the wheels turn

Look to the past
Your superstitions didn't last
And all your words
They seem so foolish now

The screams never heard
Their dreams are never understood

The circle will never change
The circle will never change

Unheard of then
Accepted now
And all you hypocrites
Have forgotten youth somehow

Are we really so different from yesterday
The more we know the more that we portray

Denounced by society
And its foolish hypocrisy

Why must you be so naive
Shut out things, see what you want to see
Your lawsuits with intent to maim
Are useless scapegoats to shift the blame

You close your mind
It's the blind leading the blind
What does freedom mean?

04. Enemy Within

You're fighting far from the space around you
And now you're holding your ground
Your enemies keep circling around you
You can't even make a sound

You're twisting your body inside out
And now for what

Your conscience
The Question
Your Position
The Enemy Within

Well you think that it's all over
And now you're on your way
Your power trips keep winning you over
Burning the books night and day

05. Time Runs Short

Your reason I can't see
No solution no happy ending
In this world we hold so dear
There's too much, too much fear

If we build a new
We build on trust
But we're the fools to believe
The reward we receive
Disappears in the blink of an eye

Is there no love left in the world?

Oh the tangled web we weave
Conscience is non existing
To be raped of all, only tears to fall
Only to be scared, no mercy to be spared
Time runs short

Shameless world, at a loss for words
Show pity for the thief
What possesses torment
Who allows it to be
Who could have a heart, and tear apart
Something sacred to the soul
It's all bittersweet, the sincere are in the cold

With time we all can change
But what to do
When time runs short

06. Pale Shelter

[Instrumental]

07. Shifting Fire

Sacred no warning
Thinking no more, cause you won't last
Falseness is around me
Taking no more all men must clash
Hey you, in the darkness
Don't see the light, don't come too near
Dazed and lifeless
Don't mess around don't laugh with fear

Shredding your victim, you rip like a knife
Ripping no further, you take someone's life

Your life's
Shifting fire
Plans, buried underground
Shifting fire
Drowned without a sound

So you've slowed down
Say you can't last, it's all in the brain
Morning, your head pounds
Tells you to stop, you've gone insane
Order after order
You're to the edge, explosions near
Built up, deep inside me
Can't get the message clear

Shredding your victim, you rip like a knife
Ripping no further, you take someone's life

Final destination
You see the end, but death is here
Soaring, revolution
A bit fed up of fallen tears

Hey you, in the darkness
Don't see the light, don't come too near
Dazed and lifeless
Don't mess around don't fuck with fear

Shredding your victim, you rip like a knife
Ripping no further, you take someone's life

08. Let 'em Bleed

Scream, let it build into a rage
Like fanatics set loose from their cage
Uncontrolled mayhem, on the floor
And oh, you're dying for more

Feel the power rushing down your spine
It's a sign, for madness to strike
Let 'em bleed

Scream, you withstand pain
Electricity is flowing through your veins
Like animals, you answer with a roar
And oh, you're dying for more

Hysteria is ruling your mind
Pumping adrenaline increasing inside
After all, isn't that what we are here for?

Lunacy set in, have you gone overboard?
Answer to question is your scream for more
Fists in the air
As the energy explodes in your head

Let 'em bleed

09. Evil For Evil

Always on her back
Tearing her apart
Ready to attack
The one who broke her heart

When she begins to trust
Always seems to let loose
Now the tables turned
And you will pay your dues

Evil for evil

Caught up in her spell
There is nowhere to run
She's after your soul
Your fate has begun

You were always on her mind
She was willing to please
And you left her behind
Now you're on your knees

You stabbed her in the back
Now she's stabbing you
Feel the blade cut right through your heart

10. The Search

We see the time slip through our hands
Hatred builds between foreign lands
So much is spoken, still nothing is said
Will the words rhyme, will we live to see the end?

Wasted minds forge the battle plan
Instead of taking the time to help unite man

What will it take
To learn from our mistakes
Destruction of the world
Stand up, rise to your feet
March through the streets
Crusaders on a never ending search

Why must we die to prove our faith
Why must we cry it seems such a waste
Oh, but man must have his rival
To prove the strongest is fit for survival
And why?
Cause in battle he'd gladly die

We close our eyes
And try to hide
From the truth we see
And what it means, the end of mankind

Sometimes it seems like no one cares
That the fate of the world is in evil hands
The voice of the people is silent
What will be the outsome
Only time will tell

Hear our cries
Realize
There must be another way
