1. Choir of the Prophecy Fulfilled
When the screams can't carry far enough
When the sands of time burn razor marks
When the ice burns cold and I can feel no more
I'll know, I'll know
I've seen this all before
I've felt this way before
I've heard this song before
Before
All this sings the prophecy
As the burning bridge falls out from under me
All this sings The Choir Of The Prophecy Fulfilled
On bent knees of shame
Face down in the tears
Waiting for the waiting to strike me down
When the screams can't carry far enough
When the sands of time burn razor marks
When the ice burns cold and I can feel no more
I'll know it's happened again
2. Reflections of Ruin
Blood seeps through the cracks of your lying teeth
As you've lost all hope in forgiveness
Because there's no one left to forgive you
Regret, lie to yourself
Because you're the only one you can believe
Regret, lie to yourself
Because you're the only one left
You've built yourself on lies
And I'm condemned to say I was once like you
The four walls of your past surround you
Like the screams you pretend not to hear
Regret, lie to yourself
Because you're the only one you can believe
Regret, lie to yourself
Because you're the only one left
Nothing will compare to the nights you spend
Screaming at the mirror for something you can never apologize for
Regret is the noose you hang yourself by
3. Broken Wings
4. This Side of the Nightmare
All this down in flames
For just one more breath
It's not worth this
It's worthless
This Side Of The Nightmare
The sound of tears on the shell of this broken heart
And time does nothing except close around me
This Side Of The Nightmare, rain still falls
As the suffering calls
Hear the tears still fall to the floor
As the suffering calls my name
How far can you carry this cross?
This falling sacrifice
How far can you carry this cross?
5. This Curse
You, you left these arms holding nothing
Alone, set in this tomb of my tears
Liar, I know now that the truth was just another lie
It's too late, my heart has broken black
It's over and failure is the only memory that hasn't turned to rust
Sorrow; the only thing that doesn't seem to crumble at the touch
My throat still fucking bleeds each time I call your name
But you will never know how hard I tried
Liar, I know now that the truth was just another lie
It's too late my heart has broken black
It's over and failure is the only memory that hasn't turned to rust
You, you left these arms holding nothing
