1. Waiting in Silence
I'm trapped in darkness
Life is no more
Unending pain and agony
Waiting in Silence cold and alone
Must I live out death endlessly?
Take my sanity
Take it from me
Let me live to die again
I see myself through eyes of the past
They give me life eternally
Dreams of the living keep me alive
They are my blood
They set me free
2. I Despise
Curse your name
Filled with antipathy
All Alone
At last I've been set free
I don't know why I believed in you
I despise all that you say and do
You're the one I feel repulsion for
Your time has come
Pleasure I can't ignore
3. A Breed Apart
These thoughts in my head
To you my thoughts mean nothing
Empty is your world
Existing is your crime
Your Ignorance alone is enough to make me hate you
Pathetic
Helpless fool
Your life ain't worth a dime
Take a good hard look
We're a breed apart
Your blinded from the truth
Your life is an illusion
You're hanging by a thread and threatening to fall
Just leave me alone
I'm better off without you
I laugh at you fool
You and your empty mind
I am straining
I am paining
Hit me
Hit me
I won't feel it
All is hollow
Growing sorrow
Stop my madness
We're a breed apart
4. Obedience Thru Suffering
Seeing you
Burns my eyes
Touching you
Burns my skin
You've tortured me and watched me die
Concrete will
I can't give in
Sorrow grows
Life it dies
Strength within
Fuels my cries
Shattered hope
Born again
Will to live
Need to win
5. Vacuum
Restrained by fear cannot face the world
No fall from grace
No smiling face only swollen fists
Focused on rage
These walls of pain closing in on me
Crushed by the weight
Love left behind I feel nothingness
Anger inflates
Indignation fills my every thought
Feel I can't cope
This house of glass I am trapped inside
Begging for stones
No black or whites I see only grey
This cycle turns
I see the end but cannot reach
My world it burns
Take me
Feel my pain
Feel me
Take my pain
6. 4 Walls
I pull the punch when I hit the walls
No one pulls shit when I fall
I'm isolated in a century of despair
Man's love's reflecting my walls are bare
My 4 walls
What a man needs when a man bleeds
Isolated
I am condemned
My life is drugged with sadness
I praise my sleep
It free's me from madness
In solitude my walls are bleeding sorrow
I have no future
No tomorrow
My hate explodes
Only my 4 walls know
There's no pity
Only peeling white snow
Headaches
Heartaches
It only gets worse
Inside my 4 walls
I am cursed
7. Subversion
I feel it
It's nothing new
Depression
My life is through
To end it
I feel the need
Suspend it
My will I feed
I realize that you're now gone
I lie here awake 'til dawn
Don't stop me
Just let it end
Goodbye now
No love I'll send
8. Feeding Fear
Reaching for the surface
I cannot feel it
My lungs they feel like bursting
Stop the pain
Conscious thoughts are fading
Fading quickly
Feed my fear of drowning
Darkness comes
Walking in cold sweat
Pulse is racing
Staring at the ceiling
Breathing fast
This nightmare keeps repeating
Becoming clearer
I'm finally realizing my end is near
9. My Agony
Look at me now
Stare into my eyes
Deep into my soul
The pain I feel
It's stronger than life
It's taken control
My mind is gone
I'm dying inside
I'm falling apart
In agony
I see no way out
The pain's in my heart
It's killing me
God take it away
I just can't go on
I'm suffering
I pray for the end
It's lasting too long
10. The Innocent
The evil in this world
Has carried on so long
What about the innocent?
Should they have to pay the price?
The guilty are set free
Their freedom's not deserved
Cries of the innocent are cries that must be heard
Look around you
All around you
Can't you hear them?
Cries of the innocent
