1. Qualis Artifex Pereo (intro)
2. Seasons
Separating season's always lost in this view
And these autumn leaves
Are getting darker
But you are a failing redeemer
With a tear in the eye for proof
We came to a station and burned it alive
With pictures of colour in black and in white
Like this room with no windows and all walls the same
While you're drilling emptiness through all that remains
Throw damage done
And turn away
Your faded life, my defense
The mirror is shattered in this parasite sky
The failing attention to the right things in life
And I will fall, burning, hating
In disbelief
This punishment is just a whirlwind of blame
Chaos descending like a flaw in the grain
And I hate this hate you torturing me
With the venom on your lips, you are
Fake like a mannequin
Hollow, empty and decayed
Skin covering every last scar within
I live in this white room with blood on the walls
For using the past as a knife to scar all
You're blaming the rage, but the fault is still yours
You hide from the truth, in the silence you fall
Claw out your eyes in sympathy
Your faded lives, my hatred
'It hurts', it hurts I'm sorry
Blood calls to me
3. Deadwood
Life's not here to be thrown away
All the time you've wasted
Is someone here in the room with me?
A crack in the window
Burn my bridges to light my way
Watch the sickness become decay
It's taking it's toll and all I remember
I waited for so long
These embers, ashes are the life I had
All I've known
Sorry if I cared, just leave me alone here
I don't have anything left to say
Feeding on all their emptiness
Will not arrest your hearts decay
Deception destruction infected eyes
Redemption corruption replacing life
I wish I could see the sun
But storms are raging
Time will lead the dream along
No strength remaining
There's a clear sky beyond this place
Still alive but alone I break
I tried to believe in you but all I found
Were shadows of the past
So when you find all your 'happiness'
Make it last
Just stars through glass, falling every night
The tired rags, tattered sacrifice
Like dead wood burning, anger amid the lies
These scars on my hands
Tell a story I never could
The memory's left me now
But always I understood
Your fracture leaves no trace
But I leave you broken
4. Hanging Tree
