1. Lost In Your Emptiness
A blackened door
Of ancient wood
Skeletal trees obscure the sky
I hold the key
Yet I remain
Locked away, imprisoned by choice
A world of rot
And bloodstained bricks
You dance upon the broken glass
A dying soul
Screams for release
Through the walls I hear your voice
Castles burn
And wood decays
All I have, it falls away
My world crumbles
Powerless
I'm lost in your emptiness
Life loses all meaning
A slow suicide
2. Death of Dreams
We sat upon marble thrones
In the presence of ancient gods
And dreamed of worlds beyond our reach
In the temple of Hera, you said to me:
Dreams cannot come true
Unless they are nightmares
And pleasure only exists
To intensify our pain
To be fortunate is to survive
In a world where we are hated
The only thing worth hoping for
Is a death that is painless
Mournfully we turned away
From the beauty that could never be our own
And quietly faded into the darkness
Forgetting that the sun had ever shone
I don't want to rot alone
Dreams can be forgotten
I can't face my life alone
I never should have been here
I don't want to rot alone
I don't want to rot alone
Alone.
3. World of Waste
Unbearable torment
Unspeakable pleasures
Under a grey and poisonous sky
Hear the screams
Through broken windows
The stench of sin and decay
At night the starless sky
Bleeds filth upon the earth
As cold machines play
Their mournful song
Sleep, and die some more
Sleep, on beds of rot
Sleep, then awaken
Still in hell
4. Conflagration of the Wicked
5. In Shadows Eternal
In shadows... eternal
Waiting for death
Years of waste
Have rotted my life away
Now at life's end
Regret stabs my heart
Tears now have meaning
Oh God, take this pain away
Death is so close now
I feel its shadow fall
Upon my shattered soul
I must not surrender
As I rot here alone
I reach for the midnight sky
And pray for God to release me
From the prison that's become of my mind
And for this one moment I feel free
From this pain I've known all my life
Now I know I must return to the shadows
For the ones I left there to die
I stand but not alone
Against this world of hate
That's ripped my heart to shreds
No pain can touch me now
A holy fire will cleanse
My scarred and blackened soul
A white wolf emerges
Slaughtering black sheep
Embrace your emptiness
Crawl into the dark
From God you cannot hide
Just rot and wait to die
