We Met Destruction

I opened the gate to give you answers
A flood of thoughts slowly consumes you
Clouding your mind, Bringing the hammer
To our destruction we have descended
Water fills your empty lungs
Explaining your spell of silence
I opened the gate to give you answers
A flood of thoughts slowly consumes you
Clouding your mind, Bringing the hammer
To our destruction we have descended
Is this final failure what you have foreseen?
A life in ruins made from your lonely hands
Is this final failure what you have foreseen?
A life in ruins made from your lonely hands
Cloud of deceit
Covered my eyes
Blinding the truth
Chances given were forgotten
You never realized
You never realized
Betray one who's faithful
Focus your eyes within
Betray one who's faithful
Focus your eyes within
Never will I lose sight of the reasons
I now have light within my reach
Life without you
Life without you
We find lessons in our faults and grow stronger
We find lessons in our faults and grow stronger
Take all the pain and darkness within your fears
Make them your motivation for all days left to live
I opened the gate to give you answers
A flood of thoughts slowly consumes you
Clouding your mind, Bringing the hammer
We met destruction

How quickly the shadows hide the light light within my eyes
Mercury rising once again
The scales of my intentions
Are tipping over
My eyes are not defective
Although red is all I see
My bloodlust, it longs to be satisfied
And this hunger is eating me up inside
And this feeling's so familiar
Fire coursing through my veins
I guess I should've told you
Not to be here when I change
Close your eyes
Your ending is soon to come
Your last breaths of life will sound
Like music to my ears
I will be the last thing that you see
For now these hands will set you free
I will be the last thing that you see
For now these hands will set you free
Breathe deep, you will now know
Lifeless empty pain
Your screams, they bring me joy
And this feeling's so familiar
Fire coursing through my veins
I guess I should've told you
Not to be here when I change
Close your eyes
Your ending is soon to come
Close your eyes
Your ending is soon to come
Your last breaths of life will sound
Like music to my ears
Like music to my ears
I guess I should've told you
Not to be here when I change

Look To The Stars
06:39
|

A life shortened by great fall
This shall be to no avail
Hand in hand we dove into this sea of shame
Mask draped your face to hide reality
From those who were there to judge our fate
Oh that one who sat back and held our name
I vowed that I would
Take away all the pain
Leave you with the space to breathe
Realize all your dreams
I found within my heart the strength to protect you
A task I would take to the grave for you
I found within my heart the strength to protect you
A task I would take to the grave for you
All things dear to you
Were crudely stripped away
Never returned to your dignity
Although your mind
Harbored truth, gave you refuge
Safety from the storms
That were brought on you
Bringing solace
Open up the skies
One day I'll change
Change the stars that were set up in your name
Lead a life that's contrary to our fate
Unveil truth within
Unveil truth within
All these efforts are for you (x4)
Beauty shall come from this tragedy
This is my sanctuary
Where there's strength to breathe
Where there's strength to live
Where there's strength to breathe
Where there's strength to live
I solemnly swear that the reach of my screams
will not fall on the deaf or the blind
With every ounce of my undying breath
I will not rest
Honor you
I found within my cave
Light to heal all these wounds
And now this vow I say to you
This is all for you
All for you
All for you
I know one day I'll see you again
Deep within the cavern of that place I'll call home
Until that day, I'll look to the stars
Look to the stars
Look to the stars

Within These Memories
07:57
|

A battle forged in flames
Whose ending will be seen
By those who bear the mark
Of a life once lost
And we will bring them to their graves
We will bring them to their knees
They will perish by our hands
By our hands they will perish
Death is near, fear our flag
Fear our flag, death is near
Your defeat means rape and plunder
A life you can live no longer
Your sea of treachery
Shall become your demise
Your demise
Our threats ring true
From every draw of our breath
Our threats ring true
From every draw of our breath
This is our last, our last
Our last chance to live our lives
Our last chance to make our stand
A stand against the masses that rule our minds
As I'm constructing these walls
To protect all the things
I hold dear to to my heart
Within these memories
I find calm and solace
Driving me through the pain
Focus hones my strength as I maim
As my brothers fall
I now still remain
A lone wolf on the prowl
Forward now I gain
As my brothers fall
I now still remain
A lone wolf on the prowl
Forward now I gain
This is my purpose I've been waiting for
Why I breathe, why I live
As I'm constructing these walls
To protect all the things
I hold dear to to my heart
Within these memories
I find calm and solace
Driving me through the pain
Focus hones my strength as I maim
We must stand our ground
We must make you proud
This ending was foreseen long ago
Raise your hands
This ending was foreseen long ago
Raise your hands
Raise your hands in victory
Rejoice
No longer are we slaves
To other's demands
Look where we stand now
Rejoice
Raise your hands up high

The Last Prophecy
05:33
|
|||
Come climb into our arms
Using every rung nailed into our hearts
Placed by all of your kind
Set forth to peer upon our minds
Love blossoms under your eyes
Giving meaning to all the times
You carved your name into our chest
Pain worth nothing less
Times have changed
No longer do young
come to grace our face
ignorant eyes guide their way
Our wrath will spread to seek the blame
We hold the key to your time
Your clock stop on our dime
Be ready for one last chance
Be ready (3x)
Breathe our life
That we so freely give to you
Our filth brings your joy
Cry thanks for the voice
It screams repent, confess all your sins
Then tragedy shall remain a mere memory
Forget destiny, all known life ends with me
Learn my strength, heed the last prophecy
Forget destiny, all known life ends with me
Learn my strength, heed the last prophecy
For the love I hold in your kind
I grant one final breath
be ready for alarm
Judgement has begun on all of your souls
Sound the gong
Your time has come
Make this count
Pull deep from within
One last chance
Your time has come
Prepare yourself to escape certain death
Realize your time has come
Now fucking breathe
Just breathe one last breath
One last breath to save your life
One last breath to save your race

To Rise Above
05:17
|
|||
From the start of our days
Our innocence was boundless
With this truth, you stand a chance
To rise up above the caste
With this truth, you stand a chance
To rise up above the caste
Live your life by your own accord
Show this world how change is born
Let these words set you free
You will see
Know yourself
Know your heart
Walk the path
That you set forth
Know yourself
Know your heart
Walk the path
That you set forth
Know yourself
Know your heart
Walk the path
That you set forth
Let these words
Set you free
You will see
Watch as they live as fakes
Terrified to leave the space
That their lies have carved out
Filled with anguish and filled with doubt
It seems apparent
This world is infected
Redefining deception
We won't
We won't forfeit this fight
From the start of our days
Our innocence was boundless
So never be afraid
Of he who hides his face
So never be afraid
So never be afraid

I seek intently my own self regard
Respect from all other's conceited minds
This life I lead assumes my darkness from within
A light to find your way
Now journey on
A light to find your way
Now journey on
Accept your demise
A monster I am not
Comfort is how my mold fits my frame
I suspect you see otherwise
Judgement who wastes away
This is what I know
This is what burns from my bones
Rest that tired mind
Your time is soon to come
Honest I must be
This struggle makes me weak at the knees
Halt these cries for now
Before I must break you down
As the sun sets on your final hour
Learn pain as I've lived it
I'll break you down
As the sun sets on your final hour
Learn pain as I've lived it
I'll break you down
You must save yourself
When faced with death, you will see a light
Providing false hope for everyone
It reaches for then falls short of grasp
It gives a soul to lie ruin
By my hands
By my hands
Feel my wrath
Your pain is my one true love
One true love
Your sun has set
Your time has come
Show your strength
Now that your eyes
Have seen what lies
Beyond your dreams
You can feel what it takes
To set mine free
