1. Intro
2. Demons of the Black
Demons of the black finally got to me,
Dead to the world, a very dead soul,
Pieces scattered, can't tell which are real,
Don't know myself, I'm breaking down,
There are three in here,
Mind at constant war,
Too many losses, I'm all alone,
Who am I, what have I become,
Am I really dead or is it all fake,
What is fake anyway?,
Do I even give a fuck?,
Don't know myself, I'm breaking down....
3. Falling Through Absu
I knew this would happen,
And I hurt her in the process,
Decendence into Abyss of the mind,
Swallowed, consumed us and all I know,
Malfeseance of personality,
In this pit where life cannot thrive,
The gates finally collapsed,
Hell and Heaven collide, become one,
Anger, Fear, Love, Hate, Life, Death, FUCK!,
Is this shit even worth my time?,
Will I ever return from the Abyss?,
Abyss I created myself, death unto you,
Monster of my dreams,
It finally killed me,
A shadowy mental hell,
Here I dwell indefinitely....
4. A Lower Level
Worst thing to ever happen to me,
Was really probably the best,
Voice of care said I need time,
But do I even have time left?,
Why do I go through this torture,
Here I sit and rot like a corpse,
My mind is the only live part of me,
Even that's gone now, here I died,
Revelations, eternal enemy, pride,
Who am I fighting for anyway?,
These objects of ponderation,
Will never seem to go away,
(chorus)
A lower level,
Keep asking why,
When the way is found,
I might have found God,
5. Call of Decadence
The quick and the dead have all been judged,
But not me...
I've been chosen immortal,
For the gods have a different plan for me,
Even upon the calling one must choose their own fate,
Blessed are we to have this right,
Like pawns in a game, but with minds of our own,
We choose what side we fight on,
Good?..Evil?
Victory on either side has its spoils,
But they also have their curses..their duties,
Their callings...
What side am I on anyway?
Perhaps..I'm too mad to know...
6. Catacombs of the Mind
It seems someone's insane,
We all go a little mad sometimes,
Does a part of me really enjoy this?,
In fact, why did I ask myself that?,
Encased here in this tomb,
Maybe you were right about me,
It's true, lunacy does dominate,
In fact, maybe that's not even true,
(chorus)
So close,
With dirt on my hands,
Now an old soul,
War ravaged, but fresh,
Getting ready to go into reality,
Slowly I'm knowing what that is,
Covering up my slivered wrists,
I'm ready.....TO EXPLODE!!!
(and slip back into dementia...)
7. Therapeutic Disease
(Part One)
So I've been told,
Karma strikes threefold,
From what I see,
Innocence is a crime,
(chorus)
Therapeutic disease,
Spawned from pestilence,
Therapeutic disease,
Bringer of the Light,
Neither live nor dead,
Post-traumatic death,
Psychosomatic life,
Exhume me with new faith,
(chorus repeat)
(Part Two)
Prometheus complex,
To each their fate is their own,
Temporary damnation,
But I can save myself,
Seems there is no cure,
My delinquent mind,
Black Nar Mattaru,
Spills its blood on you,
Spirit healing,
Much more real than I can see,
Ignorance is not a phase,
I'd kill to make peace with you,
(chorus)
Half the battle is won,
When you found your own kin,
One thing that I have learned,
You can't reap your own soul,
(verse repeat)
I'd kill...to make peace with myself...
8. Revelations to the Dead
I'm fucking gone!,
Just when I thought I was alive,
It was all mostly fake,
This..the cause of my demise,
(chorus)
The dark side of the soul,
Again reigns supreme,
Causing death unto hope,
What little hope there was,
What realizations I have?..you ask?,
There's still death of spirit,
Only a little hope, I found,
Maybe I do have a clue,
It's true, maybe there is death now,
But I don't really want to die,
Maybe it's best that I listen,
Pick up all the subtle hints,
9. Back from Hell
