Black hooded figures Hover above water Trap their prey at the shore And prepare for slaughter Circling a killer and his kin Consume the soul Feel the icy cold Defiantly conjuring anything of purity Is there a possibility he could be anything more than a survivor? Decipher the source of light, the stag, the sign The figures They crowd the lake One by one He succumbs Voices scorn his actions as he awakes And in their presence you will feel no pain No joy Only the void Only the pain you only knew as a boy Capture the essence of loss Review the most painful thoughts Endure utter tragedy Consume every memory Can’t resist the excitement surrounding this Whirls of light across an otherwise foggy sky He appears miles above his contenders Slim and slender Through suffering, a soul so tender Plummeting Whirls of light Across an otherwise foggy sky Inches from death And they’re the ones to take your last fucking breath Even the imitation Strikes fear within your core Ridiculous to think The power of an adolescent is enough to change their fate And would it hurt to know The man who helps you face your fears has his own shit show? His own For at night It tears apart his spine How could this man have anything left? Isolated Contained when it awakened Finally the flesh reflects the madness within Twilight is breaking And the beast will have his chance again Follow me out of this arborous prison Thirteen years and now this traitor’s fate has become their decision

The dream is always the same with me Where is she? There she is Trying to steal a kiss, this seems simple Oh, how pathetic you must be How do the others still appear? They interfere the fantasy And if they knew, then doubt would creep How long could it possibly last To get over the fucking past? Corner me in accusations Endless cycles My past, their ghosts

Abysmal Descent 05:17
lyrics

Leader amassing followers for his public assassination And on this day, assemble Come forth prepared to mourn the stale support of a weakened leader A murder done in public theater (Cut at the throat in public theater) Raised above the crowd I am all you have now Guillotine – the final sound I am all you have now Prepared last words as if they’ll hold weight The fate of generations of change I’m amazed at the filth that’s come to gaze At body and face to separate (Reprise “Come forth…”) Strength to village and numbers to castle Soon, vermin to sewer and able to servitude Despite the sorry fucking sight of all of you tonight, I welcome spectators to join in this system’s decline By my design Prepare for an era of terror The ceremonious usurpation New order through decapitation (Reprise “Prepared…”) A capricious administration Obedience breeds elation Submit to an overlord nation All your freedoms face castration Pathetic excuse for humans Four limbs and a torso of sewage Society brought to ruin Take his life for public viewing Come forth and assemble, vermin View the sacrificial virgin I’m the devil and the apple and the serpent Now in droves, you scream and turn and View the blood upon my person Corpse taken by my servants Your future is determined Famine, plague and death is certain

The Lights 06:03
lyrics

Scouring the earth for moments when everything made sense Through sick and tired eyes This world is in slow motion Passing me by Frozen inside fragments of time I hear these thoughts But are the voices mine? I’ve seen them, believed them with my eyes Blinded by the lights Will I ever escape the consequences of my decisions? Or am I forever trapped, my consciousness corroded, consumed by guilt? (I refuse to float through life and coast adrift Rust, ruin and scattered pain Remnants of a life decayed) Am I wasting my time investing in Earth? Should life be defined by a brand new birth? (Encased in an image Bound by a vision The weight is shifted, but never lifted Have I sailed too far in the sea of stars?) Encased in an image Bound by a vision The weight is shifted, but never lifted (Reprise “Frozen inside…”) Approaching within my grasp An existence of a world within Engineering altered pasts Parallels that could have been Every moment becomes precious again Never underestimate the power within Success is the prepared upon opportunity I must fulfill the vision Only sense of unity Drop the box and fill the vein Soon it will be new again

Sea of Stars 04:17
lyrics

I adore the floor Here is where I'm comfortable How I view the sky My back housed on linoleum Only a lonely moment But my eyes don't show it ________________________________ The sun, the moon Neither should be kept away And here I stay Here I'm comfortable Outside is a dreadful place Crack a window To give life to this space Face, drained, need a bath in the Vitamin Sea We both do, don't we? But what all does it even mean? We're specks on a rock Hunks of flesh in machines ______________________________ I think its best If we don't know the rest Of what is bathing With the school And wading in the pool Of unknown Don't be afraid Stay humble and make the best If it's dangerous It's still in your best interest Don't dwell...on death Your final breath For every day you get older, It'll only get closer And cold shoulders Are no longer important That sort of company Inevitably Wasted on you, anyway A whole sea of stars Hunks of flesh Are all that we are Anything else is ignorance Believe it Thinking that you're alone In this life

Ten Bandaids 05:51
lyrics

All this is is signatures and documents Will I never know a moment's peace? Will she walk in, flesh and all A kiss on the cheek To dismiss the panic of many weeks I am no exception To it which takes Without a chance To catch your breath Death A smell to permeate The walls and paint A reason more to hate The place we congregate No fucking solace Cradled in your arms Once again, I've pushed the grief too far Blood dripped from my head Sweat dripped on your bed I swore for Maya I’d never find myself here again He visits me here Just like you Have you met? Do you view and share In my every regret? I fulfilled your dying wish And this is the thanks I get (SOLO) (Reprise “Will I…”) (SOLO) You all just stop the leak And leave the boat As if the tide isn’t rushing the water Down your throat The only pause on my morning run Is to kneel and remind my father He had another son All this is is signatures and documents
