1. Pity the Sadness

A fallen time that's bygone
A crude elite that's from a distant zone
You don't know if It's the truth you told

Anger looks on the quiet dreaming
Seals the sense incandescent ones

Hold back desire for danger
A bet you lose, you'll have no way to turn
I see the man who lives and breathes corruption
Into a circle that you call you own

Don't run away, from the pain, A claim that you deal with
A power game, from within, Impossible for you to see this.

Laid down the laws of deceit
The ones who cherish are the ones who'll go
Into the ashes of a tortured world
Only in mind's eye can you see a light

Harmony break, dark awakes, in old eyes - the trouble, feel it
Here to stay, mark the way, improvise the judgment hearing

Anger looks on the quiet dreaming
Seals the scense incandescent ones

All remains of the glowing embers
is a bleak cold irrelevance




2. The Word Made Flesh

I am the one, to which you'll go
You are the one, from which I'll run...

Fading to grey, the wanton pray

You'll find shelter, I'll find none
I'll leave you pointless life undone

Breathing your days, my anguish stays

Fate of my face, I've seen your face
I turn and run, you'll have no place

Time is the father, in my corrupt mind
Pain, echoes, in the silent sky...
Remember life now?




3. Mortals Watch the Day

DENYING OUR RESTLESSNESS
FRUSTRATIONS TENSION ELUDES
THE PAST WAS CLEAN
WHERE THOUGHTS WERE MILD
THE PRESENT DAY HORRORS ALIVE
SLOWLY PASSING TIMELESS HORRORS
LIVES WITHIN ALL FEAR
THE MOURNING IN MY TEARS
DROWN ALL THE PAST
WE LIVED BENEATH THESE YEARS
AWAITING FOR THE CALL
FOR ALL LIFE TO EXPIRE
PASSIVE TO THIS DAY
TO INFINITY WE'LL FAIL
THE LIGHT IS DIM BEFORE US
SHADOWS APPEAR AND FALL
A BARRAGE OF SAVAGE WAYS
ONLY THE DARKNESS CAN FILTER THROUGH




4. As I Die

PLEAD FORGIVENESS FATHER
ALL MY TROUBLES FADE FROM VIEW
PALE THE FOUR WALLS SURROUND
HAVE I MADNESS IN MY EYES?

WHILE MORTALS WATCH THE DAY
OUR FEAR WILL PAVE THE WAY
HIDDEN UNTIL THE END

SEE A ROOM OF CRIMSON
NOTHING I HAVE SEEN BEFORE
COLDNESS WRAPPED AROUND ME
STRUGGLE NOT, FOR HELL IS HERE

WHILE TYRANTS CLOSE THE DOORS
EACH ONE WILL KNOW THE SCORE
SORROW TAKES IT ALL

SAVED THE SICK OF LIFE'S BLISS
CHARITY OF UTMOST GUILT
FEAR THE BLINDED TEMPER
IT HAS LIED ITS WAY TO YOU...

WHILE MORTALS WATCH THE DAY
AND LIGHT HAS TURNED TO GREY
WHAT LIES UP AHEAD

LIGHT SHINES INTO YOUR EYES
THAT I'M BLINDED BY, YOUR EYES
MORTAL THROUGHOUT THE DAYS
UNTIL WE'RE SAVED

TURNING TO BLACK
I CAN'T SEE THROUGH THIS
NO OPTION FROM TURNING AWAY
WILL WE SEE ANOTHER DAY




5. Shadowkings

You're breaking a chain
Lying until you can erase the past
Born with a look of deceit
Praying that all the bitter guilt's defeated
Born...

Stand on your own, killed from behind
Fools are blind, unwilling to accept, decline...
You'll turn a blind eye...

Bought by a sickening man
The weakened gather as fast as they can
'Whore' is what people roar
From fear of rejection,
You'll come back for more
Strong, don't see that love has ceased
In the end, only death release..

Stand on your own, Killed from behind
Fools are blind, you're on a lonely road...




6. Once Solemn

WHY CAN'T WE HEAR
THE TIME MUST COME FOR US TO LEAVE HERE
EMOTION HAS WITHERED AWAY
OUR BURNT OUT LOVE HAS DECAYED
OBSESSED TO LEAVE THE EARTH
TRAGEDY HAS OVERRUN SINCE BIRTH
NOW OUR RIGHTEOUS FATHERS WEEP
AS WE GREET ETERNAL SLEEP
ARE WE BORN TO PASS AWAY
CRY AT ALL THAT REMAINS
'CHOSEN WORDS' FAIL TO SUSTAIN
THE WISDOM OF POWERS HEARD
IN DISMAL THOUGHTS SEEMINGLY ABSURD
NOW AS HOPE AND GLORY DIES
WE'LL SCREAM AT OUR DEMISE
ARE WE LOST FOREVER MORE




7. Yearn for Change

Breathing here, and the air is clear
Changes of which I could foresee

Violence caressing, impending distress
As my body lay sleeping, enternally bleeding, and...

Shallow despair, broken years years you cannot repair
Summonded here, and all must see the hypocrisy
Peed back the face, the sorry mind, a vacant space
Born deprived, the moods expired in reality

A fantasy, based on harmony
A victim released accordingly

Scatter the ashes, remains of life's passages,
Mocking and meaningless, toys of the empty, and...

Mighty and proud, reaching up to touch the shroud
Tangled here, and far beyond from atrocity
Frozen and cold, bleak the memories of old
Times capsize the born desires for technology




8. Sweetness

AS I DIE

STARE AS EYES UPHOLD ME
AND WAIT TO SEE RIGHT THROUGH
AND CURSE ME... THE LOVE HAS CRIPPLED YOU

SHADOWS HAUNT THE NIGHT
BURNING MY DISGUISE

REAPING THROUGH THE TRUTH
LIFE BECOMES UNTRUE

SIN THE LAST DIVERSION
MY FATE WILL BE UNTOUCHED
DISMISSED NOW, THE ANGER OF A FOOL

SHADOWS HAUNT THE NIGHT
FORGIVE ME AS I DIE

TAKING A CHANCE
AND TAKE WHAT YOU GAIN
MY SOUL IT HAS NO PRICE
TOTAL RELEASE IS OUT OF HARMS WAY
UNTIL I CAN DECIDE
YOU PUSH ME, CAN'T YOU SEE, I'M NOT REAL
TEARS ARE FLOWING FREE, PASSING BY, AS I DIE




9. Embers Fire

Wretched will, host of pleasure surreal
Closed the room where the last is buried

Rise or fall at your master's request
You're unable to accept redemption

I don't know about a true belief here
With the 'lost' it's the same as always

All I want is the same, a true belief

You can't wait to become a memory
With the 'weak' it's the same as always

Stand confused lack of comprehension,
Re-aroused by a thought of madness

And I know that the truth is always right
But it's time to search for lies
You're the only I try to save
But the blood spills from your veins

Call counting time till the end
Death's wicked smile never fails
The curse is cast, you've lost the past
Forevermore, a candle burns here no more

I don't know about a century life
When the love of generations die

I can see no good in taking your own life
When any moment death calls...

All I want is the same, A true belief




10. Remembrance

SADNESS LIVES AFTER WE DIE
THE PAINS OF LIFE INCREASED OUTRIGHT
CONTEMPT AND SINS PRIORITIES...
TO CRUSH GOOD FORTUNE
MORNING...

MORNING'S CALM, INSIDE I CRY
THIS PAINFUL LIVE HAS RAPED MY MIND
TAKE ME DOWN, SLOW RELEASE
FROM SORROW'S PENETRATION
MORNING...

LIFE IS THERE FOR ME
HELL IS THERE FOR ME

SUNLIGHT GREETS MY OPEN WOUNDS
MORNING'S LIGHT REFLECTS THE DOOM
MY SOUL IS FREE, IT LIVES AGAIN
TO ROAM ALONE IN DARKNESS
MORNING...

I'VE CRIED FOR GOD
AND I'VE CRIED FOR YOU
I PRAY THAT IN THE END YOUR SENSE WILL BREAK THOUGH

SADNESS LIVES AFTER WE DIE
THE PAINS OF LIFE INCREASED OUTRIGHT
CONTEST MY SINS PRIORITIES
CRUSHED MY SPIRIT TO ITS KNEES




11. Gothic

SADNESS LIVES AFTER WE DIE
THE PAINS OF LIFE INCREASED OUTRIGHT
CONTEMPT AND SINS PRIORITIES...
TO CRUSH GOOD FORTUNE
MORNING...

MORNING'S CALM, INSIDE I CRY
THIS PAINFUL LIVE HAS RAPED MY MIND
TAKE ME DOWN, SLOW RELEASE
FROM SORROW'S PENETRATION
MORNING...

LIFE IS THERE FOR ME
HELL IS THERE FOR ME

SUNLIGHT GREETS MY OPEN WOUNDS
MORNING'S LIGHT REFLECTS THE DOOM
MY SOUL IS FREE, IT LIVES AGAIN
TO ROAM ALONE IN DARKNESS
MORNING...

I'VE CRIED FOR GOD
AND I'VE CRIED FOR YOU
I PRAY THAT IN THE END YOUR SENSE WILL BREAK THOUGH

SADNESS LIVES AFTER WE DIE
THE PAINS OF LIFE INCREASED OUTRIGHT
CONTEST MY SINS PRIORITIES
CRUSHED MY SPIRIT TO ITS KNEES




12. Mortals Watch the Day

IT LOOKS TO KILL
AND FAILS TO WAIT IN SIGHT
IT TWISTS ME FROM INSIDE
CARRY ALL, HEAL THE SORE, I CAN NO LONGER BLEED
WHAT IS THIS, THING I'VE BEEN, YOU CAN SET ME FREE
THE ONE I SEE, A BLINDED FOOL CORRUPTING ME
FROM WITHIN, WORN AWAY

FIND, BY MIND, ABUSIVE WAYS
ALLURES ME FROM RESTRAIN (I'D KILL WHILE OTHERS RAPE)
CREATE THE OBSCENE, YOU CAN SET ME FREE
SENSE PREDICTS THE SCORN
THE HOUR OF PEACE IS GONE
THE ONE I SEE, A BLIND DEAF FOOL - FOREVER BE
BURNING ME...

WORN FOOLS THAT PREY
ON A FAITH FILLED DAY
LAUGHTER STAYS, OUT OF MY WAY
PASS THROUGH MY DISMAY




13. Widow

PLEAD FORGIVENESS FATHER
ALL MY TROUBLES FADE FROM VIEW
PALE THE FOUR WALLS SURROUND
HAVE I MADNESS IN MY EYES?

WHILE MORTALS WATCH THE DAY
OUR FEAR WILL PAVE THE WAY
HIDDEN UNTIL THE END

SEE A ROOM OF CRIMSON
NOTHING I HAVE SEEN BEFORE
COLDNESS WRAPPED AROUND ME
STRUGGLE NOT, FOR HELL IS HERE

WHILE TYRANTS CLOSE THE DOORS
EACH ONE WILL KNOW THE SCORE
SORROW TAKES IT ALL

SAVED THE SICK OF LIFE'S BLISS
CHARITY OF UTMOST GUILT
FEAR THE BLINDED TEMPER
IT HAS LIED ITS WAY TO YOU...

WHILE MORTALS WATCH THE DAY
AND LIGHT HAS TURNED TO GREY
WHAT LIES UP AHEAD

LIGHT SHINES INTO YOUR EYES
THAT I'M BLINDED BY, YOUR EYES
MORTAL THROUGHOUT THE DAYS
UNTIL WE'RE SAVED

TURNING TO BLACK
I CAN'T SEE THROUGH THIS
NO OPTION FROM TURNING AWAY
WILL WE SEE ANOTHER DAY




14. Eternal

AS I DIE

STARE AS EYES UPHOLD ME
AND WAIT TO SEE RIGHT THROUGH
AND CURSE ME... THE LOVE HAS CRIPPLED YOU

SHADOWS HAUNT THE NIGHT
BURNING MY DISGUISE

REAPING THROUGH THE TRUTH
LIFE BECOMES UNTRUE

SIN THE LAST DIVERSION
MY FATE WILL BE UNTOUCHED
DISMISSED NOW, THE ANGER OF A FOOL

SHADOWS HAUNT THE NIGHT
FORGIVE ME AS I DIE

TAKING A CHANCE
AND TAKE WHAT YOU GAIN
MY SOUL IT HAS NO PRICE
TOTAL RELEASE IS OUT OF HARMS WAY
UNTIL I CAN DECIDE
YOU PUSH ME, CAN'T YOU SEE, I'M NOT REAL
TEARS ARE FLOWING FREE, PASSING BY, AS I DIE




15. The Joys of the Emptiness

A spiral movement, the ultimate mystery,
Will you show...will you show who you are?
It's the truth that untrue suspicion is spreading like a desease,
Do you know...do you know if it is real?

Voices appear inside my brain
Their need, to set me free
Onward they lead before the dawn
Teach me what's right and wrong

Encourage the madness they welcome impurity
I don't know...I don't know... ...who I am!
Fallen blind to the cruel hysteria that's constantly challenging me
All alone...all alone... can't be real

Voices approve I can't relate
Their need to celebrate
Onward they lead before the dawn
Teach me what's right and wrong

Voices approve, the quest begins
Fuel for the shadowkings
Onward they lead before the dawn
Teach me what's right and wrong




16. As I Die

Once solemn, the thing I'm leaving alone,
Once solemn, the looks that turn one to stone,
And I'm learning the highs and the lows of the panic inside,
And I'm learning the highs and the lows of the fake promises.

Your powers electrify me,
Your prowess repels apathy,
Your image can turn your soul to stone.

Can't find another way,
Can't find the words to say...

Unchaining the thing that's holding me down,
And it's frustrating, the pressure's getting me down,
And it's trying to live with a bad decision every day,
It's a fever that's eating away in search of a fast release.

Your powers electrify me,
Devour the one that's guilty,
Your image can turn a soul to stone.

Can't find another way,
Can't find the words to say...

Your powers electrify me,
Devour the one who's guilty,
Your prowess repels apathy,
Your image can turn a soul to stone.

Can't find another way,
Can't find the words to say...




17. True Belief

Approaching a silence, a blur of subsidence
Time may heal all troubles, is that what I found?
Jou entices all, until death's loney shroud
But I know, it's forever...

Praying for a change
Praying for a change

Our lives leading onwards, the essence is stronger
Memories of life drifting further away
I must doubt that where there's a will there's a way...
But I know, it's forever...

Praying for a change
Praying for a change

Life is all the pain we endeavour
Life is all the pain we endeavour
Life is all the pain we endeavour
Life is all the pain we endeavour
Life is all the pain we endeavour

Praying for a change
Praying for a change
Praying for a change
Praying for a change




18. Pity the Sadness

Sadness lives after we die
The pains of life increased outright
Contempt and sins priorities...
To crush good fortune
Morning...

Morning's calm, inside I cry
This painful live has raped my mind
Take me down, slow release
from sorrow's penetration
Morning...

Life is there for me
Hell is there for me

Sunlight greets my open wounds
Morning's light reflects the doom
My soul is free, it lives again
To roam alone in darkness
Morning...

I've cried for god
And I've cried for you
I pray that in the end your sense will break though

Sadness lives after me die
The pains of life increased outright
Contest my sins priorities
Crushed my spirit to its knees
