1. Vanished
2. Suffer in Truth
3. Inside What's Within Behind
4. Gods of Rapture (live)
1. Vanished
CONVALESCENT LIVID WE SUCCUMB
STAGNATION NOW COMPLETE
THIS IS THE NEW PLAGUE CALLED
UNCONSCIOUSNESS
WE'RE SELFCAGED IN DEFEAT
CLOTTED MINDS COAGULATE WE ARE TRAPPED
INSIDE THE TEARS WE OBEY RESIGNATE TO OUR
SELF-INFLICTED FEARS
VOICES CALM WILL BE NEVER HEARD
IN THIS MODE WHO WILL CHANGE
BANTISED IN OUR MINDS SO ABSURD
IS THIS THE WORLD SUBLIME
INTO POOLS OF PARANOIA WE'RE FADING WITH
REALITY DRAINED BY LIES WE ARE ALL INHUMAN
INTROSPECTIVE VANISHING
STERILE THOUGHTS NOW UPRAISED IN SUBHUMAN
MAJESTY BODIES NUMB STILL ENCHAINED
WHERE AM I IN HELL OF OUR DREAMS
WRONG WRONG I'M IN THE NOW THE VAIN REALITY
SO IT SEEMS WE'RE DYING YET CONTENT
WORSHIP OUR CHRYSALIS STAGE SINCE WHEN ARE
LIES DIVINE
SINCE WHEN
THIS IS NOW DEGRADE INDULGE
THIS IS US SERVILE OBLIGING
SWALLOWED BY OUR HUNGER FOR MENDACITY
AS THIS DANCE WHIRLS DEEPER INTO HATE
WE'RE VANISHING
IN DOWN DEEP COLD WHERE AM I CAUGHT CAGE
TRAPPED NOT IN DREAMS NOW TIME HAS KILLED
OUR EYES FALL FADE GONE DEAD AWAY
2. Suffer in Truth
TORTURED SOUL RIPPING SKIN INTO ASHES
BLIND BY PAIN DEAF BY LIES
SMELL OF FREEDOM VIOLENTLY CUTS
FORGIVENESS
POWER TO A BEING NEVER DIES
SUFFER IN TRUTH'S NARROW PASSAGE SAW
WEAK SOLUTIONS STABBED TO NOT KNOW
THE SMILE OF OBLITERATIONS FACE
PENETRATING THROUGH THE VOID OF LIFE
A DANCE WITH THE DEAD
BURIED IN OBLIVION STOLEN FROM THE MIND
CONSTANT STARVING NEVER FED
CONTAMINATED LIFE IS FADING
LAUGHING IN MY FACE
SUFFER IN DECEPTION
MANIPULATED NOT TO FEEL
SLAIN BELEIFS ABANDONED DREAMS
A LIFE OF MISERY
SUFFER IN TRUTH
THE WOUNDS OF A SOUL IN PAIN
A MIRROR OF LIFE
DREAMS ALL IN VAIN
LIFE WILL ALWAYS BE SEALED
I SEE... UNSEEN
I FEEL... UNSEEN
SUFFER IN TRUTH
3. Inside What's Within Behind
I CAN'T RUN AWAY FROM THE THING IN ME
I'M WEAKENING DOWN ANOTHER NOW DEVELOPING
WITHIN
I CAN FEEL IT IT'S INSIDE MY HEAD
CONNECTED TO MY BRAIN THIS OTHER ME IS
SLOWLY TAKING OVER DEEP BENEATH THE
EYE THAT
ALL CAN SEE ENERGETIC VISIONS OF THE ONE
I KNOW MYSELF TO BE
LOOK INTO MY EYES DON'T LISTEN TO
THEIR LIES
HOW CAN I STOP THIS FROM BEING REAL
NO MY LIFE WILL BE NO LONGER WHAT IT ALWAYS
USED TO BE
LIFE NEGLECTED INFECTED BY STRAIN
I FALL INTO THE SMOTHERING THE EVEN
FLOW OF
RAVAGING PAIN THIS MY TEMPLE OF SELFCAGED
CONTEMPT A BODY SLOWLY PIERCED BY
INEVITABLE ME
DO I DIFFER FROM YOURSELF AM I LIKE
THEY SAY
THE TRUTH EVENTUALLY I'M THE ONE YOU
WANNA BE
CAN YOU FEEL THE SAME AS I ANOTHER INSIDE
PUSHING TO FREE ITSELF FROM THE CHAINS
OF THE SOUL
TURN YOUR EYES TOWARD THE INSIDE
DIG DEEP WITHIN I'M SURE YOU'LL FIND
A DIFFERENT SELF A DIFFERENT SOUL
TO PUT YOU IN PEACE WITH MIND
4. Gods of Rapture (live)
I FEEL TORN APART A VILE MISFIT FALLEN DEEP INTO AFFLICTION OF MY HOLLOW MIND THE SENSE OF SUFFOCATION GROWS INSIDE MY LUNGS WHEN I WAKE INTO TRUTH I'M BACK AMONG THE BLIND THE TRUTH OF LIES DISENCHANTING MY EYES HOW CAN I SURVIVE I CAN'T STAND BEING ALIVE GODS OF RAPTURE ENSHROUDING MY EYES A TRY TO HIDE THAT SLOWLY I DIE MY PAST LAUGH AT ME FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF NEGATION UNTYING THE LASTING FEW CORDS OF COMMON SENSE SUBMERGED INTO THE FLOW THE RAPIDS OF ADDICTION TOO WEAK TO PUSH IT BACK A WORM WITHOUT DEFENCE MY FLESH FADING UNDRESSING THE BONES BEHOLD ME NAKED CADAVER EXPOSED THIS MY ABUSE I CAN'T TAKE IT NO MORE THE FRAGILE TRUTH SNEERING AT ME WITH TEETH PRESSED LIKE THRUSTING NAILS INTO MY HEAD ALL MY LIFE I REGRET
