1. The Truth Seeker
Falling prey to a skeptic dogma
deadlocked into believing equality
guilty of being ill advised
drawn to the dark
A cause for my soul to wonder
beyond a shadow of doubt
upon this search eternal
for the truth never told
Believer, follower likely
your soul is cursed your life is lost
deceptive they distort the candor
clear the smoke so i can see
A cause for my soul to wonder
beyond a shadow of doubt
upon this search eternal
for the truth never told
If ignorance is bliss
how did you find you were wrong
question answers and don't be satisfied
the world is crooked everyone lies
Unbound by conventions
no longer enslaved by fear
burn the flag of confusion
heavy burden left behind
A cause for my soul to wonder
lift the shadow of doubt
end the search eternal
the truth i behold
2. Carrion Wings
Forced to walk upon shattered dreams
feasting on demetia
humanity is forlorn
utopia gone wrong
As i stand upon this apex
views of desolation
perfectly staged ruin
the overman did not reign supreme
A light in the distance
it flickers
it extinguishes
it was the dimmest light of hope
Stand and observe the wasteland
in the wake of a fine tuned doom machine
Trying to collect dreams
that have fallen by the wayside
humanity long gone
utopia no more
As i mourn upon this apex
views of desolation
the heralds of destruction
the overman lies beneath
Immune to misery
desolate i fly
new eden
i leave behind
3. ...Amidst A Shattered Sky
In despair
where to hide?
don't know who
you can trust
Random thoughts
come to mind
all the chaos
it entwines
Tormented by the past
searching for the method
to the madness
reach for the killswitch
and contemplate it
there will be no turning back
Spiritual rape has its weight
these open wounds will never scar
No one's fault
but your own
feel so cold
and alone
One last time
to the edge
one last step
one last breath
Tormented by the past
found the method
to the madness
reach for the killswitch
and embrace it
A shattered star
amidst a shattered sky
4. Enemy Thine
It never fails
or ceases to amaze
when one finds
the evil inside
It creeps up inside you
then it rears its ugly head
you cannot dispose of it
you cannot fight what you
are a part of
You cast the shadow
it's your own worst enemy
Lights creation
spawned the first
but in darkness
they're hard to see
It creeps up inside you
a stab from within
ill advised
you embrace what you are a part of
you become the shadow
your welcome enemy
Like many times before
it takes over
like so many times before
you lose control
5. The Farewell Abode
Inescapable human condition
End the nightmare
afterthought of lunacy
a downward spiral
where's the identity
secluded confined by these walls
no light no sight
no feelings for an outside world
the mind races through the chemical calm
Endowed with twilight
have you lost your mind
madness
metaphor of rationality
Emotional quicksand quickly gives way
the demise of dignity resides in these halls
constructing a puzzled reality
death visits this place so many times
The splinter spreads
imbedding aberration
Numb to the torture
eyes can't even see
cannot awaken
vague lucidity
Finally come to an end
where these walls they crumble down
one final brief moment of clarity
relieving a puzzled memory
Abandon all hope all who enter
The light was black
but i could see
sanity bid me farewell
6. Infected With Rage
Massive inexorable force
crushing all in its path
poisoned with hate
polluted with offence
the blood that races thru
yore veins had been tainted
Hard to contain
all this wrath
no one can escape
this disease
At fever pitch
crossed the line
a wretched thought
is all that abounds
nethersurvival
Moving fast but erratic
fear run rampant
can it be real?
Even in death
there is a power
that compels, propels
you onward
Cannot contain
all this rage
no one escaped
this disease
First you feel heat
you can't control
then comes the cold
that you don't care to.
7. Juggernaut
Have you ever wondered?
what it would be like
to have no bounds
would fear consume you?
Are you trying to break free
dreamscapes are obsolete
break throught the upward spiral
and reforge the light of hope
Run amok the stampede
against this air drawn world of lies
i feel lost but not afraid
for the truth remains in me
Are you trying to break free
dreamscapes are obsolete
break throught the upward spiral
and reforge the light of hope
The dimmest light of hope
Breed the ultimate life form
Reach the juggernaut within
Are you trying to break free
dreamscapes become obsolete
break throught the upward spiral
and reforge the light of hope
8. Dead End
