1. Shaped to Symbolize
Born and raised in a time of war
Evolve to decrease yourself
Supposed to believe in modern lies
Swallow the truth of authority
Created to kill reality
Shaped to symbolize contradictions
The one being a walking shame
The one that will decease in silence
Weep nevermore, the species is gone dead
Bow to your knees, make you bleed
Speechless, shame all over your head
Closing your mouth to a bitter end
Regret the sins of humanity and shall...
Shall we get a last kiss before...
Before we finally learn that...
That we've betrayed ourselves
Inner pain crawling down your spine
Decades of ruins just recognized that
We're no longer a fraction of the human race
2. Carved Within the Milestones
Nightfall by the weeping dead stars
Open wounds turning into scars
Wisdom tearing the veils of anger
Fallen snow dancing like a whisper
Undying milestones from yesterday
Within your inner self, now so far away
Deep in your flesh the pain forever stays
Under its command, you will obey
From its demons burning in the suffering
Trees like soldiers ready to kill
Sleep now on the coldest hill
Blood-like rain dripping slowly
Tears ablaze sliding in glory
Wondering the answers to your misery
Never seem to end in your prey
Feeding like slaughtering your sympathy
Once and for all it will die away
Howling your internal soreness eternally
Only the silence remains today
Scorn the kiss from the snake
Waiting for you to finally awake
3. The Mournful Dawn of Existence
Blinded by a storm of tears, no regrets
Fuck all my deadly mistakes
Get out of your world and see the light
Shadow standing in the mist
Walking through the flames of hatred
Far away from the garden of sins
Same lies for the slaves of this nightmare
It's now or never, there's no turning back
Cryptic moon like a lake of gold
Open your arms and prepare yourself
For the mournful dawn of existence
In a dream, I'll close my eyes with no fear
I'll take a look to the sky
My body and soul will turn to dust
Arms wide open for divinity
Tears of blood on the mirror of your fate
Think fast, your life slides through your hands
Don't waste any time to live for today
The quest for serenity is over now
The stars are crying at your sight
The eyes of cruelty whisper some hope
The purity of evil in the feast of beauty
The key to darkness cold as your breath
The kiss that froze your lips forever
Blow the smoke and make it clear in your heart
Never meant to be all alone
Disturbing silence that makes you doubt
Your true purpose on this earth
From a war that ravaged your troubled mind
Overwhelmed by human's ignorance
Only the strong will survive in this chaos
Believe in your strengths to kill the pain
4. A Dreadful Melody
Alone when I wake up
I hear deceitful screams
Coming from a distant land
I run through the silent kingdom
Stained by my scornful mind
A dreadful melody of eternity
Is calling me from my frights
The idle crypt opens its doors
Showing the true colors of oblivion
Soon I'll spread my nightly wings
And finally reach the world
Beckoning my shapeless desires
After tha fall of my reason
To the hands of my own will
Withdraw the mask on my face
Reality is soft on my flesh
Walking for the very first time
Toward the sinister grounds from the past
Divine rupture of creation
Past the fates soon to be broke
5. Into the Abyss of Torments
The shadow of a never-ending dream
Alone, free yourself from your chains
See through my eyes full of tears
A disturbing sight of a gullible mind
Like the thorns that dwell beneath your skin
You'll fall deeper than death itself
Tread on the weak under your conquering feet
Refuse slavery admonishing the advent of your bliss
Don't let yourself sink into the abyss of torments
You better tame your pain
Drag the venom of this world
Infected by the misery and decay
Don't let yourself sink into the abyss of torments
See the distant lights, reflection of my thoughts
(with) the splinter of the subtle ray that blinded me
The frankness of my soul like a sheet of stars
Dying in the universe full of lies
6. As Daylight Fades
While trees shed their foliage
A season wilts and fades away
Alike the memories of a single age
Blending into a dull gray
As daylight fades, a mute stillness fills the air
And today dies, under an aging sun
As daylight fades, woeful silhouettes must depart
For today dies, with the end of a season too frail
Daylight slowly tumbles to the ground
Ever so slightly, days are weakening
For summer bestows to autumn
As September is falling
As daylight fades, a mute stillness fills the air
And tomorrow comes, with its bitter reminiscences
As daylight comes, revealing a ravaged scenery
And yesterday dies, I cannot look back at a world so dead
A cruel wing sweeps across your face
Carries a final tear and echoes a sigh
Never will we stand against the ages
Never will we be able to feel
No words will salvage
No words will heal
I have a forlorn inspried countenance
I watch a warm felt embrace die
7. Caress the Despair
Your smile paints on these filthy hands
Across the path of forgiveness
By your side, confusion stands
Children born in unconsciousness
They are running through a forbidden land
Killing my pride,
forced to live among those who lied
Hiding my pain when I get used to smile
A river flows down your body
Sinking all your moments of clarity
Climb the stairs up to your fantasy
Your bones start to sing a sweet melody
As your brain screams its symphony
Please play the part of the one who's lost
Leave those who crawl toward the disgust
And let them sleep on a cold cloak of chaos
Thou shall caress the despair
8. Upon Burning Wings
With wings that crafted passion
I soar towards the sun
Boundless is my ascension
A blue and gold salvation
Breathe in the serenity
Confined no more to bodies
We will celebrate our liberty
We will everlast, we are free
Light-born dove take your flight!
Our ardor will flourish and shine
Upon golden wings
Lonesome fates, abandon
Alas, this feverish sun
Speared through my wings
Earthward, I am plummeting
Sky-lived bird's last cry
Our ardor has tarnished and die
Upon burning wings
Inexorability burns my wings
Sets my refuge ablaze
Nor light nor warmth shall shine through
This thickening curtain of dust
This flaming spectacle reveals
The illusion, my paradise
A mere reflections of what lies
On the ground below
The mirror unraveled and broken
Alike the pillars of my shattered heaven
9. Shades of Dusk
Dead in a lost universe
Eyes closed, looking in vain
Your howl will never be heard
The hope of a better future in smoke
The echo of your spirit will fall through the ages
Burned by the flames, you're the only one to blame
Satirical portrait of mankind
and its potential for self-destruction
In a world without any diseases
and no past, but a future that can't see
The shades of dusk
Feel the sadness of this aimless life for sale
Lay down for the relief of your pain
The greed of this bliss is killing all your glimpse of a pure reality
Force to watch the world crumble at your feet
Wondering the end of your suffering
Look to the horizon and you'll see the shades of dusk
