1. Identity
Severance of life and the living
A notch in the blade
Headstone epitaph
All I know is what I’m after
No purpose or reason
Just instinct and fear
Severance of all that I’ve needed
Quickening life
I awake, I awaken
All I am is what I’m after
No purpose or reason
Just instinct and fear
Vision denied, running on sound
I breathe my own air
Carry on and don’t say a word
Requiem for those who must follow
My burning trail
Flames shall light the way
Carry on and don’t say a word
Requiem for those who must follow
My burning trail
Flames shall light the way
2. The Hurt Plains
Savage wastelands lay before me
Shrouded in ashes – I cross horizons
Every step burns with memories
Neglected earth cracked and decaying
Feeds on misery
Chorus:
Deliver me unto hell
My grave lies in the hurt plains
Deliver me from this hell
my grave lies in the hurt plains
Charred remains fall behind me
Shrouded in ashes – I cross horizons
Every step burns with memories
Neglected earth cracked and decaying
Feeds on misery
(Chorus)
3. Endgame I
Will you stay locked in my heart until the end?
Cold heart, dying to melt away – were wailing these dirges dust to day
Will you stay here locked in my empty heart until the end
Gold tears, leading us far away – were crying these shadows dusk to day
Will you stay here locked in my empty heart until the end
My friend, oh my lover
Will you stay in my heart until the end?
My friend, oh my lover
Will you stay in my heart until the end?
We are father, we are mother we are blood
My friend, oh my lover – we are one
4. Sertraline
5. Endgame II
Heart of cold – I can’t just melt away
Locked in my heart you will forever stay until the end
Tears of gold – they can’t lead us away
Locked in my heart you will forever stay until the end
Feeling emptiness already fading – finding reclamation in the eyes of a child
Feeling emptiness already fading – finding reclamation in the eyes of a child
6. This Demon Mine
Crawling on a midnight mission
This crutch of mine is such a vision
Crushing any former sense of pride
Enduring repetitions – body guilt of sedition
Leaving all reality behind
Failure to delay immediate gratification
Wish I could believe it wasn’t my decision
So tightly tied to a bleeding soulless bride
But I still can’t bear to turn her away
The needles daring my soul to start preparing
The broken glass – my pillow for tonight
Failure to delay immediate gratification
Wish I could believe it wasn’t my decision – my decision to make
Let it in and race to judgment
Drowning in it – never satisfied
A sin to touch it yet you seem to love it
Marvel at this contradiction in my hand
Let it in and race to judgment
Drowning in it – never satisfied
A sin to touch it yet you seem to love it
Marvel at this contradiction in my hand
Unwanted, unneeded? Yet it desecrates your soul
Descending, unending… give yourself to this demon mine
7. Synesthete
The truths an injury, never healed
Every time you walked away the scab was torn
Leaving an open wound that I couldn’t fend to
Despite my most desperate efforts
If there were something that I could’ve
Done to fix myself and regulate…regulate
To stabilize and smile, to shrug it off
And rid myself of this tightness In my chest
I would have done!
This vessel – this soul
Appeared from a distance as strong
But there was little
Next to nothing
Holding it up
I dread to dream what without these words id be
Feel of the sun upon your wings
I dread to dream what without these words id be
Feel of the sun upon your wings
8. Hindsight
9. Phoenix Tears
10. Liar's League
The time has come to let these half-truths lie
Been sleeping with the enemy for too long
Be brave, don’t be afraid of this grave you’ve made
Kiss the sky goodbye
Ill rest in peace when you are tucked in the deep
The light of day will dim. Cold pulls at your feet
Your god will forget you before you’ve gone to sleep
The water holds you now
Ghost winds won’t whisper
Where you’ll rest forever
Deep six six sixed into oblivion
drowned men tell no lies
Ghost winds won’t whisper
Where you’ll rest forever
Deep six six sixed into oblivion
