1. The Heart's Lake Pandemic
I know a place where we can hide
Run from the passions we've left sheltered for so long
The path of truth is lost
And torment ravages these shores
Desire pierces the thickest of our skin
A multitude of emotions sets in
You and I long to be free
Condemned to where the sun is lost, departing
Our greatest fears eternally wait for us here, we're overcome
Blood fills your eyes
Essence of the pure
Anthem for the righteous few
Threnody for those who've left us in a casket of lies
Essence of the pure
Cover their faces in vain
Lament in the loss
The last of the righteous few
With motives by cowardice impelled a multitude of emotions sets in
Your motives by cowardice impelled
We are the wayward children sent to drown in sin
Everything is becoming clearer to me now
We live to know unrest
Death the only true peace
Desire, the burden, fear in the lake of the heart
The answers lie within the depths of our hearts
2. Usury
I pray you all find your vanity well spent on the compromise of our lives
Let us unify and dance to the beauty of depravity
Here we stand, I pray for rain to wash this all away
In my dreams, it never ends
The ones ahead of us will never come to change
Wasting away and you all my enemies be
Blood on each slip you exchange
Envy disguised as clerics who prey on your love
Displaced by idolatry, disdain, lusting for what you never had
Disdain fills the heart
Barter your soul for their words
You're playing the part, lusting, disdain fills your heart
Barter, you're playing the part
Tell me no lies and I'll show you all that is real and all that's feigned
Disparities lie in everything that is done and dreamed
When benevolence exists no more
Beauty is now a tale of savagery
Heed these mistakes or our souls are theirs to claim
What have we wasted our faith in
Tell me no lies and I'll show you
All that is real and all that's feigned
Disparities lie in everything that is done and dreamed
When benevolence exists no more
Beauty is now a tale of savagery
Heed these mistakes or our souls are theirs to claim.
