ASHES OF EDEN LYRICS
"Ruins Of The New Dawn" (2002 EP)
1. Cerebral War
2. Ruins Of The New Dawn
3. Dreamdeath
4. Wasteland
1. Cerebral War
In a constant turmoil
Ever searching for a name
To the faces of our psyche
Disconected decomposition
Of the fragments of
A long shattered soul
Vain attempt to reassemble
A centuries old and abandoned reality
But it’s far too late
(chorus)
The flesh absorbs
Multiplying spores
Overthrows control
Fighting a cerebral war
Product of conception
I’ve an immoral objection to this
Sedentary minded destiny
How can we live for the future
In a history that repeats itself
The answers scream
From deep within the void
We call our minds
And, yet again, are ignored
(chorus)
Unforseen and unfulfilled
The dilemas of the past remaining
Burried alive in this organic shell
A war of silent words
Ensues within its confines
But no victory is certain
(chorus)
2. Ruins Of The New Dawn
Fallen victim to past beliefs, and unable to leave them behind
He glides through his life blinded
Crippling despondency, neural excrement collecting dust resurfaces
To flatten out his world again, the sphere is too complex and maladjusted
A crux at this interval
With a blade and a sigh
He says his last goodbye
In Elysium the images become so very clear
Ruins of the new dawn haunt their minds
He turns away laughing at their mortal grief
To stare infinity in its face
A crux at this interval
Confronted with life’s
Perplexities and lies
Now decisions must be made
Kaleidoscope of questions
In a vast labyrinth of answers
Reaching up to grasp the translucent surface that is the floor of time
Raging terror fills his mirror image
A flaw in judgement, thing are not as were anticipated
The mystery still eludes him
Strewn upon the page, written into the rock of the earth
The careless man weaves his way in and out of its intricacies
Only to find him-self completely lost
A crux at this interval
With soldered shut eyes
And swallowed, force-fed tears
Fallen victim to past beliefs, and unable to leave them behind
He glides through his death blinded
3. Dreamdeath
The curtain is drawn let the banquet begin
Behind closed eyes the mirror is
Shattered again
Acsention of personal will
And unhindered perception
In the place i know well, yet so unfamilliar
The door is ajar but i dare not pass through it
On the leash of my consience
How i long for…..
Acsention of personal will
And unhindered perception
Yet this place i know well remains unfamilliar
Unseen are objects in the way
Of tranparentcy
Another day another wrong turn
And this can’t go on that much longer
It took its toll
As i wandered through amother dream alone
A dreamdeath by suicide
Uncertainty reigns whe the light stabs receptors
All the hidden pain. I will die before….
Ascention of personal will
And unhindered perception
In this unending maze that’s all too familiar
Materializing thruogh clouded thought
As distorted visions of my own death
A sudden urge to sleep
It took its toll
As i wandered through another dream alone
A dreamdeath by suicide
4. Wasteland
Suck in all the air about you
And claim to be individualistic
No more than the billionth clone
Of a pre-fabricated media drone
(verse 1)
Mass marketed soul in a buyers market
Oblivious to the manipulation of corporate gods
Incestuous breeding of your hate through generations
Shall eventually lead to your downfall
(chorus)
No! We will not show you sympathy
Content to be outside
Your social heirarchy
(verse 2)
And the day will come when the weak shall rise
Above the strong
In a murderous frenzy they rape your world
All governements crumble and your empires will burn
And their children will play in the ashes!
(repeat chorus)
(repeat verse 2)
