1. A Bid Farewell
I will bid farewell, Sever the ties, Is this all I am, Is this all that’s left
Turn from deceit, the love of self is death, deliverance is given to you
I will bid farewell, Sever the ties
Now you're heart beats black with deception, you have been forsaken
Leave behind (I will) all reminders of you
I will bid farewell to all lies, I will bid farewell, sever the ties
Searching, always searching, Hoping for a change
I will never be satisfied, I will never be
I will never be satisfied
I will now bid farewell
I will bid farewell to all lies, I will bid farewell, sever the ties
2. Take This Oath
Abandon the safety of mindless following
Abandon what hold us captive to suffering
Pierce the blinders, behold the path that leads before you
Let us forsake, forsake all the things that lead us to our demise
Open your eyes, See the divine, Open your eyes and see the…
Destruction of innocence, watch it breathe its last
Open your eyes (Behold the path before you)
See the divide (Forsake our demise)
Open your eyes (Behold, the path before you)
And see the
Abandon the safety of mindless following
To the grave we take this oath to leave this world behind
Hear the words of the voice that lives inside
Break free, this is your time
Break free, to the grave take this oath
3. When Darkness Falls
As you walk the path of least resistance
Is it that simple as you claim it to be
Your tongue, your eyes, your lies, they do deceive you
I stand firm in my solidarity
The path I walk, I walk it with my own resolve
When Darkness Falls, we are reborn
Our dream since the fall of man, we are reborn
My beliefs are not antiquated, we are the whole
Silence them all with not just words, let resolution be our voice
I stand firm in my solidarity
The path I walk, I walk it with my own resolve
When Darkness Falls, we are reborn
A dream since the fall of man, we are reborn
We are the remnant
We the remnant will silence them all
We are the faithful
We the faithful will silence them all
When Darkness Falls, we are reborn
Our dream since the fall of man, we are reborn
4. Rose of Sharyn
Numb and broken, here I stand alone
Wondering what were the last words i said to you
Hoping, praying, that I'll find a way to turn back time
Can i turn back time?
What would I give, to behold the smile, the face of love?
You’ve never left me, the rising sun will always speak your name
Numb and broken, here I stand alone
Wondering what were the last words I said to you
It won't be long, We'll meet again
What would i give, to behold the smile, the face of love
You’ve never left me, the rising sun will always speak your name.
It won't be long we'll meet again, your memory is never passing
It won't be long we'll meet again, my love for you is ever-lasting
I mourn for those, who never knew you
It won't be long we'll meet again, your memory is never passing
It won't be long we'll meet again, my love for your is ever-lasting
5. Inhale
6. Breathe Life
And it begins anew, the hatred of mankind
As it seeks to kill that which lives inside
Now we are dying, dying the slowest death
Held down by bonds that bind us, we breathe our final breath
And it begins anew, the burning we endure
As we seek the strength, strength to break the bonds
Now we are dying, dying the slowest death
No more condemnation, we fight for our last breath
Breathe life, for you are not alone
Breathe life, inside your heart of stone
From dust you were born and to the ashes you return
Break the bonds
Breathe life, for you are not alone
Breathe life, inside your heart of stone
7. The End of Heartache
Seek me, call me
I'll be waiting
This distance, this disillusion
I cling to memories while falling
Sleep brings release and the hope of a new day
Waking the misery of being without you
Surrender, I give in
Another moment is another eternity
(Seek me) For comfort
(Call me) For solace
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
(Seek me) Completion
(Call me) I’ll be waiting
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
You know me, you know me all too well
My only desire to bridge our division
In sorrow, I speak your name
And my voice mirrors my torment
(Seek me) For comfort
(Call me) For solace
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
(Seek me) Completion
(Call me) I’ll be waiting
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
Am i breathing? My strength fails me
Your picture a bitter memory
For comfort, for solace
(Seek me) For comfort
(Call me) For solace
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
8. Declaration
We will not return to the countless mistakes of the past
I will not relive the failures of the man I once was
Only through dedication will I destroy all preconceptions
No longer will i let myself be satisfied with the standard
We will not return to the countless mistakes of the past
Only through dedication will I destroy all preconceptions
Let this be, be the day, day of my, my declaration
Let this be the day of my declaration
Join me, walk with me
Shatter the bonds that tie us to what we strive to never be
Join me, walk with me
9. World Ablaze
Can you feel it? The expectancy of our deepest desires
In one moment, in one second, watch it all burn
You and I will stand as one
You and I will be transformed
This is the promise, this is the gift
We hold this truth
Shed the weight of this world, the burden has been lifted
Let it all fall
Set this world ablaze, we alone remain
Don't fear what awaits, we will all remain
You and I, will stand as one,
You and I will be transformed,
Shed the weight of this world, the burden has been lifted
Let it all fall
Set this world ablaze, we alone remain
Don't fear what awaits, we will all remain
Let the skies turn black
Let the infection burn
This is the new beginning
Embrace eternity
Let it all fall
Set this world ablaze
10. And Embers Rise
11. Wasted Sacrifice
Trading life for life, it all must fall
It must end with us, it must end with me
Insinuations of what might be
Fight through deprivation, there will be no sleep
Heed my cry, because of greed and hatred, to dust we return
They will see the strength in our numbers
Only then will the self-righteous learn
Insinuations of what might be
To the masses we mean nothing, but it starts in the hearts of the few
Witness the birth of a people, unite, renew
There is no forever, just today
Don’t let your sacrifice waste away
Through change and purity, turn the shadows to light
Buried beneath the ashes Is a passion for life
There is no forever, just today
Don’t let your sacrifice waste away
Let there be no more of this bloodshed, heed my cry
There is no forever, just today
Don’t let your sacrifice waste away
12. Hope Is...
This is our moment, will you stand with me?
Hope is not lost, Hope is not lost
Let the strength of your words be the spark that ignites the flame
Proclaim your freedom, give voice to your liberation
This is my confession
Mark these words, we will rise
Weep no more, we will prevail
Grieve no more, we will prevail
Revoke the needless way of affliction, revoke and abandon
We are the authors, finishers of our faith, we are the solution
This is my confession
Mark these words, we will rise
Weep no more, we will prevail
Grieve no more, we will prevail
Hope is not lost
Weep no more, we will prevail
Grieve no more, we will prevail
This is our moment, will you stand with me?
Hope is not lost, hope is not lost
