1. Nothing to No One
For things to begin, scorch a flame
Your fire merged with sin
Gone's the distant liar
Never and never again.
Keep it down from all these raven
Which post-descends creation
What is done is dead
What is done is dead
To be content
Beyond abomination
Are you satisfied
Are you done with this
The ultimate rebellion
The sacrifice is endless
The ultimate rebellion
Leave nothing to no one
Was it a true life, behind the crumbling walls
We'll dream an infant illusion
Watching without movement
Desire without heart
It is over and done
It is over and done
Decree for judgments on this
I cannot without eyes
I saw the prophets rising up
That no one sees
The ultimate rebellion
The sacrifice is endless
The ultimate rebellion
Leave nothing to no one
Waken to the screams
Of our virus soul
Demands and accusations
Was I free
These are the outer centers
Our bitter detonation
They will find us still in action
Glitters of resolve
Take the burden off me
Lead me to my grave
The ultimate rebellion
The sacrifice is endless
The ultimate rebellion
Leave nothing to no one
2. The Lesser Faith
Dreamt up a new word today
With my ignorance I give it meaning
Who was I to know
To say it is to know it
To hear it is to believe, is to believe
I dreamt the world would end
At last I'm wrong
To doubt, to discredit
The other words I heard before
From your silence, you're pretending
I saw you show your faith
And what you've always known
So lay your trust in the unthinkable
Start to justify your lesser faith
It's all your faith has shown
What all you love and know
Why do you matter, you're insignificant
How can you justify your lesser faith
To know it is to fear it
To fear it is to say no, is to say no
To the blazing hearts of those, I know I failed
To break, to cast it down
You take your leave
Through the stuff that must be broken in two
It's all your faith has shown
What all you love and know
Why do you matter, you're insignificant
How can you justify your lesser faith
3. Terminus (Where Death Is Most Alive)
This is a ghost town
We lie on the edges of failure's fled
Lead on by shining faces, levelling extremes
What used to be, our humility is gone
Walk around, with skull and bones
We're living just to die
I see more moments indict of decision
The windows are our lights
It is the only place I know, where death is most alive
It is where truth is turned to lie, where death is most alive
Set flame to the ensnarers, we'll pierce their wooden shield
Branded by what claims you
You wear the mark of death
In death and loss and agony, a character defined
Stripped of all the tragedy
What life is left to fight
Go now, until there's nothing left
Go now, the dying has begun
It is the only place I know, where death is most alive
It is where truth is turned to lie, where death is most alive
So I flee from all that is me
To hide behind this pale, dead face
Whatever happened to desire, want and need
Whatever happened to integrity
Imagination is a cause in all of this
Whatever happened was left behind
This is a ghost town
Our bodies scattered in the streets
Go now, to never return
I've seen more pitiful humiliation
That you could never hide
It is the only place I know, where death is most alive
It is where truth is turned to lie, where death is most alive
4. Blind at Heart
I tell you here
of all the crimes and hours broken
what never came, will never be the same
I tell you this, I tell you what
the mind has been flooded
all the exits sealed
a poison set to enter
the unforgiving me
probes and infiltrators
infiltrate me
it's in these hours we forget ourselves
within a fire that consumes itself
no need for your defenses
my anger wall will hold
take your steady pride
in monotony and beat
invaders and corruptors
invade me
a supernova of flame and fire
this broken spirit, blind at heart
bite down hard on frustration
the siege that can't be broken
this hollow flame of fear
I tell you this, I tell you what
so close without connection
locked inside the sphere
I take the blame upon me
and scream at what I see
5. Icipher
Like lust, my shelter failed me
No power to subside
My instincts never broken
This downfall so close at hand
Well the thing that scares me most
Is the fear I see in others
The other thing that really frightens me to the core
Is when I see that fear in you
Like shields against the action
No enemy to subdue
We barricade forever
The weak minds inside us all
Well the thing that scares me the most
Is the fear I see in others
The other thing that really frightens me to the core
Is when I see that fear in you
To break the rules and barriers
When you're scared enough
Before the end is here
Are you scared enough
Are you scared enough
Are you scared enough
Well the thing that scares me the most
Is the fear I see in others
That look to send shivers down my spine
Will haunt me to the end of living days and nights
The other thing that matters to me most
When I sense this fear in you
6. Inside the Particle Storm
Inside the particle storm
Where clouds of napalm shimmer
With the promise of one final dawn
Inside the particle bliss
Where rages collide into nothingness
And the erasions, one final kiss
I crawl in the garden of eden
Clogging the bloodstream of birth
Tearing a hole in the fabric of life
The horizon enriched with scars
Inside the particle place
A shimmer of disillusion
Proclaiming the end of days
We leave now
Nothing will follow, nothing at all
The cleansing flames of entropy to devour us all
Our lungs are filled with sorry
Our children drowning like dogs
Waken to the weight of cold dark matter
Without promise, meaning, or name
Inside the particle storm
The poison gene of humanity confined
This is the moment when bloodshed sank into the sky
The heavy price of chaos
Descend in merciless demise
7. Empty Me
What I’d never abandon
We channel darkness well
The evidence in pools of blood
I cannot penetrate, I cannot penetrate
Will you come for my forgiveness (There’s nothing left to give)
No response to your repentance (Just empty me)
Wasted from the living days
I’ve been cut by endless shame
The blazing satisfiers
Who constantly give up
Where we got our love repentance
Bastards of life
To bring meaning to it all
Meaning to it all
Will you come for my forgiveness (There’s nothing left to give)
No response to your repentance (Just empty me)
Take now from this body
A coward’s heart
Like a soul beyond repair
Empty me
Between the purity and reason
Self deprecation
Who has the misery, you
Why do we inspect ever closer
What human searches for the core for this
Cure for chaos
Will you come for my forgiveness (There’s nothing left to give)
No response to your repentance (Just empty me)
Lots of memories, lost and forsaken
I’m in the center, I've set the scene
I listen to the world stressing out
To stop pity and kill the light
8. Misery's Crown
All is not been broken
On streets I dare not walk
Freedom is an illusion
I build my fences high
If there was something out there
I've learned not to expect
There's a hundred million reasons
Not to care
Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me
Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me
The misery's crown
As always in these matters
You broke the deal of deals
And wasted what was given
To revel in your mess
I gave up all for nothing
I tried my best
And failed
There's a thousand million reasons
Never to share again
This is how it all begins
This is how it all begins
Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me
Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me
The misery's crown
This is how it all begins
Come now
Come now
Come now
Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me
Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me
The misery's crown
9. Focus Shift
I think I just forgot
To pick up the shells
From a recent discharge
And you took the blame
Explanations falter
To ears fallen deaf
Wherever I go I get lost
A reference to something
That both of us knew
A nothing that favours the few
In the darkness electric we see
Of the silence that's spoken tonight
I think I have lost my language
Whatever I've said I deny
I think I have lost my way
Whatever was missing is gone
I let my focus shift
Your face is a map I fail to discover
Drowned in the sound, so lost in the order
It's an understated word, the un-breaking knowledge
Interlocked and holding, a stalemate to break
I take hold of the flame that unites
In the silence that speaks to me now
I think I have lost my language
Whatever I've said I deny
I think I have lost my way
Whatever was missing is gone
I let my focus shift
I struggle to find the words that negate my meaning
I fail to comprehend what message is given
I decline the sleight of hand that leads to rejection
An attempt to find closure with no sense of pride
Drown the fury and swallow the fire
Drown the fury
Swallow the fire
I think I have lost my language
Whatever I've said I deny
I think I have lost my way
Whatever was missing is gone
I let my focus shift
10. The Mundane and the Magic
Seen through these dreamless eyes
Blind buildings startle the sky
Silhouettes as the dividing world
Guarding the eternal secret
Where is the flame towards you
And who do you answer to
My lies are always wishes
Lies that make me
See beyond the rationale
We accept the fate that nothing is meant to be
We are the least connected
Stay tuned to the last original
We're like layers to reality
Things only you can see
At all peace and normality
Inside the core of his sanity
I've left my dreams for so much
In days of endless grey
If I could merge the mundane and the magic
We voice the new and known
I've left my dreams for so much
To nothingness and back again
If I could merge the mundane and the magic
Where is the dark I came to find
We learn these days that
Time will find you
Memories were never meant to get closer
The silent sighs, the useless company
Whisper darkness and deaf again
In the face of ignorance and fear
I cast it right back
Some things were never there to begin with
All this envied it should deny
We're like layers to reality
Things only you can see
At all peace and normality
Inside the core of his sanity
I've left my dreams for so much
In days of endless grey
If I could merge the mundane and the magic
We voice the new and known
I've left my dreams for so much
To nothingness and back again
If I could merge the mundane and the magic
Where is the dark I came to find
