1. Face of Death
I see your days and nights
As time slowly fade away
I know the things you have inside
The pain you hide behind your smile
How many times has silence
made you a friend of mine
You turn away you don't wanna hear
You don't believe your ears are deaf
There's no retreat before you go
Somewhere in distance
I hear the voices crying out
There's retreat before you go
further than the seas
I know you have chosen darkness
to be your guide
Pain in your heart and
Death is by your side
2. Mind Control
A pale light burns
My staring eyes
Transcending time
I'm inside a new dimension
All the darkness that dwells
Love seems out of reach
Pain keeps finding the sinner
The final harveest of weak
Hard to see behind the curtains
Don't let me loose my way,
don't let me fall again
My mind is under control
My soul is under subjection
I'm crying out in pain, I'm condemned to die
As I look through the ashes
for someone to blame
Don't let me loose my way,
don't let me fall again
3. The Essence of Sorrow
The fears you hide seems to grow
Shades of your lies make you blind
Your agony is my demise
Evil lurking in disguise
Possessive obsessions
Imprisoning your heart
Closing out your love ones
Your path has led you astray
Tools of the evil inside
Trying to read between the lines
Taking the view from the outside
Your cold existence makes me shiver
Hopeless affliction when will it end
Possessive obsessions
Imprisoning your heart
Closing out your love ones
Your path has led you astray
Tools of the evil inside
The pain you hide behind that smile
Misleading so easily, eternal is the pain
How can I help you out of your misery?
Possessive obsessions
Imprisoning your heart
Closing out your love ones
Your path has led you astray
Tools of the evil inside
Is this where it all has come to?
I'm loosing it, I'm going blind
My senses are gone and I'm falling apart
I don't know where to go
Is this truly the end? I don't know.
The essence of sorrow
Embodiment of suffering
The supreme endless grief
Let me be the one who understands
Come back my precious
Don't let go!
4. Hollow
Empty hollow shells human fragile minds
An endless echo swells
Faded memories clueless state of minds
Staring from the inside out
The confusion so overwhelming
Slicing through your mind and soul
Hate and love intertwined without boundaries
Venomous tongues, hollow eyes
Lies and death where has this world gone, just empty shells
Cold as ice, staring blindly into oblivion
Give strength to this weary soul, helpless kneeling in pain
The serpents tormenting your flesh
Draining the life out of you
Hate and love intertwined without boundaries
Venomous tongues, hollow eyes
Lies and death where has this world gone, just empty shells
Hate and love intertwined without boundaries
Venomous tongues, hollow eyes
Lies and death where has this world gone, just empty shells
5. Supreme Oppression
I am the tears on your cheek
Can you feel it?
I am the scream that wants out
Trapped inside
I am the weight on your shoulders
The Burden
I taste your sorrow and your pain
feel your heart cold as ice
This path has led you astray
fallen into the sea of pain
Splinters of a broken heart
Questions without an answer
You think you're in control
Then you become the things you hate
As you try to be everything
Without being your self
Just be your self
You're asking why this deep blue sky
Doesn't know when to sweep
All of your life you've looked for the one
To fill the void
I am this thing you have inside
I'm tearing you apart
Breaking down peace by peace
As I whisper your name
This path has led you astray
fallen into the sea of pain
Splinters of a broken heart
Questions without an answer
You think you're in control
Then you become the things you hate
As you try to be everything
Without being your self
Just be your self
6. Ashes
I can feel your anger
I can see your pain
As time will slowly fade away
far beyond in silence
Who's the guide when you are blind?
I can hear your distressed breath
Pretending the nightmares are gone
Slowly you wither away
From the ashes of the old
A new dawn will rise
Time to sacrifice
Open your eyes and
Reach up to the skies
Tell me do you feel
Anything at all...
Deep inside you are lost
Falling into darkness
From the ashes of the old
A new dawn will rise
Time to sacrifice
Open your eyes and
Reach up to the skies
From the ashes of the old
A new dawn will rise
Time to sacrifice
Open your eyes and
Reach up to the skies
7. The Mirror
Lost inside the shadow, erase the sins I've made
Have I lost the sense of time and reality?
I've felt the hands of darkness
Touch my soul, war inside my head
Walking with this shadow
Too blind to see what's wrong or right
No more excuses, no more lies
Unlock the doors help me find a way out
Through the windows in my mind
Transcending to a new dimension
Who can see behind my eyes?
The mirror of our soul
Feels like my life is hanging by a thread
Silently I can slipping away
I've felt the power of death
Close my eyes to hide the tears
The restless picture in my mind
Is it all delusion?
Through the windows in my mind
Transcending to a new dimension
Who can see behind my eyes?
The mirror of our soul
Hiding my scars of what's left of this body
Searching for the light at the end of the tunnel
Splinters of a broken heart
Always seem s darker deep in my mind
The endless night is calling
Waiting in silence. I fear the end is near
Voices without a sound calling me all over again
Through the windows in my mind
Transcending to a new dimension
Who can see behind my eyes?
The mirror of our soul
Through the windows in my mind
Transcending to a new dimension
Who can see behind my eyes?
The mirror of our soul
8. Trail of Tears
Laying here with blackened empty eyes, forgotten in despair
So many things to say, but not a soul that listens. Gentle caring seems to be a childish wish
Is there a memory, a destiny to believe in?
Shoul I take my life and end this misery
Close my eyes tears falling down like the rain from the sky
Please don't ask me why
I fear that end is near
Is there a reason not to cry?
Hoping to find some peace of mind
Across the dark into the light
Take me home where I belong
This journey on the trail of tears
Please come, come to an end
Wrists destined to bleed in this blackened world soon to fall apart.
Imprisoned flesh need to stay sane from childhood pain
Death is standing revengeful and divine
I step into my world my reality
I feel a cold breeze back on my neck
Oh God I know I'm fallen from grace
Please don't ask me why
I fear that end is near
Is there a reason not to cry?
Hoping to find some peace of mind
Across the dark into the light
Take me home where I belong
This journey on the trail of tears
Please come, come to an end
Please don't ask me why
I fear that end is near
Is there a reason not to cry?
Hoping to find some peace of mind
Across the dark into the light
Take me home where I belong
This journey on the trail of tears
Please come, come to an end
9. Come Serenity
