1. Rain
Rain
Becoming one with madness, a chaos to embrace
Struggling for my sanity, clear skies turning gray
My demons stand before me, and taunt my every thought
The only way to cleanse my soul, is drown my dirt with rain
Water now engulfs me, it burns my sins away
Enemy preys upon my flesh as darkness burns the sky
Surface drifting further, taken from my sight
The only way to cleanse my soul, is drown my dirt with rain
No one to save me, a promise to be made
For heartsick memories, below the murky wake
In shallow water, I will drown unfeigned
My death knell rings below the flood
To wash away my sins of yesterday
And give me the chance to murder your name again
Becoming one with madness, a chaos to embrace
Struggling for my sanity, clear skies turning gray
My demons stand before me, and taunt my every thought
The only way to cleanse my soul, is drown my dirt with rain
In shallow water, I will drown unfeigned
My death knell rings below the flood
To wash away my sins of yesterday
And give me the chance to murder your name again
2. The Novella Reservoir
The Novella Reservoir
Hurtful summoning of Gods left behind
And with great cause you’ll suffer in pain
Your words fall upon deaf ears
Never again to swallow the lies
You’re not the savior of this world, a simple life has come to pass
You’re not the answer to my faith, I’ll never give you what you need
I am the darkness in your dreams
Your vile heart keeps me alive
After all the pain that you’ve been through
Do you believe that he’ll be there for you?
You’re not the savior of this world, a simple life has come to pass
You’re not the answer to my faith, I’ll never give you what you need
Novella reservoir tortures me, only the broken remain
Final days arrive and the curtain drops
The only face you’ll see is that of shame
Where do you think he gets his strength?
Drawn from the mindless and empty as them
You’re not the savior of this world, a simple life has come to pass
You’re not the answer to my faith, I’ll never give you what you need
3. Drown the Inland Mere
Drown the Inland Mere
A gray line divides where the shadows blur
There is nothing left within your empty smile
Nothing will change, the tide will still rise
Hold me under water
Drown the inland mere
Into this darkness I forever hold my loss
Only a moments time to scream my name
A shell of what I was, I’ll never let you go
After all you said in vein, a weaker soul am I
This is my final struggle, this is my dying day
Hold me under water
Drown the inland mere
Into this darkness I forever hold my loss
Only a moments time to scream my name
No brother to man who rapes his own
A cell to rot the fabric of flesh
Why are you still smiling?
It’s pity I feel for the life that’s yours
The haunting voice of liberated souls
The death knell proudly chimes
Nothing but slaves in the unwilling fall
Hold me under water
Drown the inland mere
Into this darkness I forever hold my loss
Only a moments time to scream my name
4. Twilight Innocence
I wonder what she dreams about
Perhaps my arms that hold her tight
All the love that warms her heart
Peaceful sleep till dawns new day
I will always keep watch over you
To keep you safe when you are scared
Before her sleep she lies awake
With wonder and angelic thoughts
So much to learn in one lifetime
Hand in hand we'll walk for hours
When the water becomes too deep
I'll be the one who pulls you free
Your dreams inspire me
To be the best man i can be
To never let you down
And make you proud of me
Someday you'll be on your own
Memories will make you smile
Think back to those dreams
To remember me
I wonder what she dreams about
Perhaps my arms that hold her tight
All the love that warms her heart
Peaceful sleep till dawns new day
I will always keep watch over you
To keep you safe when you are scared
5. The Voice of Failure
The Voice of Failure
I struggle to reach above the fault, In the same moment of collapse
Born to suffer by the fate of this world, come with me now, and bleed
Visions of the promised land, I close my eyes and angels die
No man alive can stop the bleed, and now I hear the voice of failure
A deeper hunger I have for fear, we’re bound to the eyes of his plea
Fingers running across my scars, the beauty of my lonely heart
Visions of the promised land, I close my eyes and angels die
No man alive can stop the bleed, and now I hear the voice of failure
The tempted drag me down where weakness feigned
I harvest the only face I can and swim through the mire
Time heals the wounds of sorrow, the undertow of deaths becoming
I’ve been searching for battles won, dusk is falling, sunlight drowns
Visions of the promised land, I close my eyes and angels die
No man alive can stop the bleed, and now I hear the voice of failure
6. They Were Left to Die
They Were Left To Die
Drawn upon insight to purify
Voices call to a sinners world
One by one, gagged and bound
Hollow eyes, they were left to die
Right from wrong, lines divide
Black and White, obey his word
Follow the path those blindly walk
Life of fear for the dying weak
One by one, gagged and bound
Hollow eyes, they were left to die
No remorse for tales told
Cities burned in perfect wrath
Cleansing life for eternal bliss
Paradise for those who fall
One by one, gagged and bound
Hollow eyes, they were left to die
Drawn upon insight to purify
Voices call to a sinners world
Glimmer of white to pierce the throat
Crestfallen, you’re the only one
Bathe in moonlight against his law
The cold grip of lust is powerless
Will you repent and follow his lead
Before time steals the only life you have
Beaten and torn, displayed for spite
The strong are nailed and cast aside
One by one, gagged and bound
Hollow eyes, they were left to die
7. Dominate the Human Strain
Dominate the Human Strain
Where has your savior gone to, for now he’s left you here alone
The aftermath of natures hand, striking down the weak and frail
Dominate the human strain
A judgement day has come upon us, to separate the right and wrong
The fear of God in your solitude, creates this hell born faceless mask
Bathe in the blood of his name, the elders crutch will crucify
Dominate the human strain, carry on this reckless farce
There is no turning back now, the flood will carry in the filth
Eyes will close to hide the truth, jagged words deform this hope
Bathe in the blood of his name, the elders crutch will crucify
Dominate the human strain, carry on this reckless farce
I have remained faithful to the cause, Save me, Save me!
Where has your savior gone to, for now he’s left you here alone
The aftermath of natures hand, striking down the weak and frail
Bathe in the blood of his name, the elders crutch will crucify
Dominate the human strain, carry on this reckless farce
8. Leaving This
Leaving This
For many years you’ve been my life, I’ve been thankful for our time
From rainy days to snow filled nights, you’ve always been there for me
And nows the time I say farewell, for I’m leaving this all behind me
To walk away with tears and pride, mourn not the loss, honor the memory
For lives I’ve touched, and those returned, this was only a moment in time
I need you to know before I’m gone, It’s always been for you
And nows the time I say farewell, for I’m leaving this all behind me
To walk away with tears and pride, mourn not the loss, honor the memory
I will miss our days of glory, along with the hardship and loss
It’s all been a friend to me, in the end, this reflection I’ll embrace
And nows the time I say farewell, for I’m leaving this all behind me
To walk away with tears and pride, mourn not the loss, honor the memory
