From Beneath The Ashes
04:00
|

All life will fade
Into the air
It will slowly drift away
And join the empty silence of the tomb
We never seem to have enough time
The clock is ticking faster
We all will race to meet our own demise
We give it our all to make our lives great
But in the end it was all for nothing
Struggle to reach
The highest point
Where we feel we have accomplished
All there is to gain within our lives
It was nothing but a conscious dream
I’ve awaken now to realize
We were never living
Just wasting precious time
We give it our all to make our lives great
But in the end it was all for nothing
We try to hold on as long as we can
But time stops for nothing or anyone
At times it seems your getting further
But in truth
You’re only slipping closer to the edge
It's only a matter of time
You'll wish that you lived your life
And done things much differently
The clock will never stop its hands
And give you the time you wish you had
So make the most of what you’ve got
And make every moment count
In the end we all look back
And think about what we could have changed
It was all for nothing when we die
Can't take you wealth to the other side
You can’t take your wealth to the other side
It’s all for nothing
It’s all for nothing when you die
We give it our all to make our lives great
But in the end it was all for nothing
We try to hold on as long as we can
But time stops for nothing or anyone

Into The Flames

What a site it was
To watch your city burn
The horizon red
We watched the glow
Consuming all in its blazing path
I close my eyes
To erase the images from my mind
I’m shattered ruins
That I must escape
But tell me one more time
Why you think that
It's all the same
As if your answers were
The writing on my nightmares’ wall
I try to hide myself
From the smoke I'm breathing in
But there's something
That's pulling me
Into the flames
I shield my eyes from the ever bright
Terrified that I might find
That there’s something
That's pushing me
Into the flames
Just tell me one more time
Why you think that we’re all the same
This inferno that I feel inside me
Is meant for me to bare alone
I try to hide myself
From the smoke I'm breathing in
But there's something
That's pulling me
Into the flames
I shield my eyes from the ever bright
Terrified that I might find
That there’s something
That’s pushing me
Into the flames
I am
The one to rise above the burning rubble
I am
The one to reach up through the ash
I am a burning body
But the flames reside within
This vessel is breaking down
What more can I give
I am so tired and burned
Let me be free
I try to hide myself
From the smoke I'm breathing in
But there's something
That's pulling me
Into the flames
I shield my eyes from the ever bright
Terrified that I might find
That there’s something
There’s something haunting me
There’s something haunting me
I am burning
I am burning alive
These flames are for me to bare
I’m alive
A shell
Of who I used to be
A burned out maze of who I am
Lost inside this empty husk
Nothing remains
But the embers in this empty night
The glow is faint inside
The shell of a man
From remains of ash and dust I rise
I rise again
And pull my corpse
From beneath the ash
I try to hide myself
From the smoke I'm breathing in
But there's something
That's pulling me
Into the flames
I shield my eyes from the ever bright
Terrified that I might find
That there’s something
That’s pushing me
Into the flames
I Am
The one to rise above the burning rubble
I am
The one to reach up through the ash
I am a burning body
But the flames reside within

My Darkest Days
06:52
|
|||
This truly marks my darkest days
When the lights go out the shadows play
It’s the same old scene that I've seen before
I search my thoughts
There must be more
What am I missing from these days
What have I overlooked this time
There must be a reason that I can't see
Why am I being so blind
Where are you my son
Reach out and take my hand
Let me give you the strength to overcome
The darkness that rests inside of you
Looking back to the days of old
So many stories
Some untold
I remember the times that you smiled
All The times that you stood brave
I always thought
That you'd be okay
To choose a path
And be on your way
To better things in the years ahead
Chasing your dreams
And never give up
Save me son
Where did I go wrong
I’m lost without you
I've never felt this alone
Save me son
I've nothing more to lose
Just take my hand
You're always welcome
Always welcome home
Onto the road that lies ahead
A shadowed path of the things you said
I think about this every night
What could I have changed
A piece of me
Now feels missing
The hourglass I cant reverse
Once again I find the pieces
Shattered on my floor
Save me son
Where did I go wrong
I'm lost without you
I've never felt this alone
Save me son
I've nothing more to lose
Just take my hand
You're always welcome
Always welcome home
This keeps me up at night
I just can't seem to see
What's in front of me
There has to be a light
To help guide you back to your path
And find your way home
Forgive me my son
I blame myself for all that's come between us
Nothing but pain
I feel this loss so deep within my soul
It’s tearing me down
I must stay strong
Just know that I'm here
Whenever you need me
I’ll always be there
Save me son
Where did I go wrong
I’m lost without you
I’ve never felt this alone
Save me son
I've nothing more to lose
Just take my hand
You're always welcome
Always welcome home
This truly marks my darkest days
When the lights go out the shadows play
When the lights go out the shadows play

A Peaceful Death
04:06
|
|||
As the days pass like a dream
But fully awaken
Living alone within this pain
Is the only thing that's certain
Living isn't only breathing
Holding onto nothing as you waste away
Tremble as you take each breath
There has to be a better way
Total control prevents us
From taking action
Selfish mindset
And ignorance
Keeps pain alive
Let them suffer
Let them be buried alive
Terminal illness be damned
Forced to live in a hell
You will not die
Let them suffer internally
We'll keep them in pain
As long as we can
The shadows that surround me
Are holding me in place
But this pain I feel
Is a silent force that no one should ever face
With the needle I could die
And finally be at peace
But the selfishness of others
Keeps me locked up in this hell
Humanely kill the terminally ill
Just grant this final wish
Of a peaceful death
Unwrap these chains
From around my neck and set me free
They’re pulling me under
And through the waves and I struggle to breath
This pain within me
Torments the soul to the very end
I feel the darkness
Creeping up from the depths of hell
Euthanize the willing dying
Put their pain and suffering to an end
They plead they are ready
To die
Just make it all go away
It's worse than murder to hold a suffering man
Against his will
All dignity lost
In his final days of hell
Let them suffer
Let them be buried alive
Terminal illness be damned
Forced to live in a hell
You will not die
The shadows that surround me
Are holding me in place
But this pain I feel
Is a silent force that noone should ever face
With the needle I could die
And finally be at peace
But the selfishness of others
Keeps me locked up in this hell
Let them suffer internally
We'll keep them in pain as long as we can

Hourglass
04:31
|
|||
The hourglass is shattered
They're still the hands of time
This truly marks the end
Of our existence
Shallow marked grave
We'll meet again
When the ashes settle on the dead
Shadows on the walls are the marks of the beast
My paranoia flairs as everything I see
It's following behind me everybody run
It's the evil in the monster that I fear so much
Terrorized by shouts that are coming from the dead
I try not to listen to the voice in my head
It's telling me that I
I am my monster
There is no where for me to run
When I know I'm the monster
I tear down the walls that hide me
Cause I am the one to be feared
I have destroyed
Everything that I touch
It all turns to ashes in hands
And I blame myself for the misery
The misery that is me
My whole world around me is burning
I'm thankful for this light
I awaken the burden that is buried inside me
It's telling me to fight
Just leave me alone
The shadows on the wall
Are the marks of the beast
My paranoia flairs
As everything I see
It's following behind me
Everybody run
It's the evil in the monster
I fear so much
Terrorized by shouts
That are coming from the dead
I try not to listen to the voice in my head
It's telling me that I
I am the monster
There is no where for me to run
When I know I'm the monster
I tear down the walls that hide me
Cause I am the one to be feared
I have destroyed
I've destroyed
Everything that I touch
And it all turns to ashes in hands
And I blame my self for the misery
The misery that is me
The surface cracks and fractures
Its sand spills out in waves
The hands are broken into pieces
But time is no one's slave
It's tearing its way
Out of my skin
I'll become what I have feared
There is a beast within us all
Everything that I touch
It all turns to ashes in hands
And I blame myself for the misery
The misery that is me
I've destroyed
Everything that I touch
And it all turns to ashes in hands
And I blame my self for the misery
The misery that is me

I find myself again
Staring inward and spiraling
Thrown behind the veil that hides
My fears and delusions
I've always kept myself so far away
With poison in my voice I say
We all will die alone
Is this the solution
Time will only tell
And it's coming to fruition
That there's nothing left to tell
And I know why I'm so tired
I just wish you all could see
That my body is shutting down
For the restless sleep
Paralyzed with the realization
That only I can see these facts
To see the signs that are deeply hidden
One must hunt within my maze
The world is rotting
And this planet
Is starting to decay
Is this the solution
Time will only tell
It's coming to fruition
That there's nothing left to tell
And I know why I'm so tired
I just wish you all could see
My body is shutting down
For the restless sleep
I try not to close my eyes
And invite the eternal bliss
So why do I hide
From the fact that I
Have been searching for
I've been searching for
I’ve been searching for this
Decide to crawl back into your shell of a man
Holding me back
As my words are unwritten
My journey's at an end
Yet I still see more beyond the hills
I can't explain
This feeling I'm getting inside
As I hide
From the world that's around me
Holding me back as my words are unwritten
My journeys at an end
Yet I still see more beyond the hills
I can't explain
This feeling I'm getting inside
As I hide
From the world that's around me
I try not to close my eyes
And invite the eternal bliss
So why do I hide
From the fact that I
Have been searching for
I’ve been searching for this
I have been searching
I have been searching for this
I try not to close my eyes
And invite the eternal bliss
So why do I hide
From the fact that I
Have been searching for
I’ve been searching for this all along

Mindless Automatons
05:06
|
|||
All heads are down
Cast away into a social bliss
We've run aground
And no one bats an eye
Does anyone even feel reactions
Just another post to share
Blinded by the screens' opinion
No one wants to think things for themselves
Let the formation begin
While the herd is locked away
A prison cell within the hands
We are the mindless automatons
Controlled by the algorithms
Our children are raised by the circuitry
To keep the mindless in control
While watching your every move
A prison cell within your hands
We are the mindless automatons
Nobody pays
Any attention to the world around them
Look up and gaze
Into your unfamiliar homes
Terrified of what you see
Retreat right back into your shell
Your voice will not be heard
The opinions of the mindless mass
Hide yourself
Within the hive
Express yourself
With another's mind
While sharing the thoughts of your fellow man
Contenting yourself with more mindless acts
The resolution intensifies
Like moths to the flame
We begin to fly
Straight into the fire
That is our life
The digital comfort that we seek inside
Hide yourself
Within the hive
Express yourself
With another's mind
While sharing the thoughts of your fellow man
Content yourself with more mindless acts
All eyes cast down
Unaware of the change around them
We've run aground
And no one bats an eye
Does anyone even feel reactions
Just another lie to share
Blinded by these fake opinions
No one wants to think things for themselves
Hide yourself
Within the hive
Express yourself
With another's mind
While sharing the thoughts of your fellow man
Contenting yourself with more mindless acts
The resolution intensifies
Like moths to the flame
We begin to fly
Straight into the fire
That is our life
The digital comfort that we seek inside
Hide yourself
Within the hive
Express yourself
With another's mind
Sharing the thoughts of your fellow man
Contenting yourself with more mindless acts
There is no hope
There no hope for us

The Poison
04:54
|
|||
Buried in the sands
Are the wills of the gods
To be answered never more
A doomed salvation
Carried on the backs
Of the febal and the weak
The crushing of the world
Kills us slowly
We are on our own
We must rise to overcome
This fight we could not win
We must give it our all
Time will never cease for anyone
We have been dragged through the stagnant mud
And yet we still try to stand on our feet
Our blood trails far behind us
As a map of our prior defeats
But this time around
I know it will change
Take another breath
But don't take it for granted
This could be your last
This could be the end
There's a fire within
That’s burning ever dimmer
The light grows darker as we reach the end
Time will never cease for anyone
Even as your own draws to an end
We have been dragged through the stagnant mud
And yet we still try to stand on our feet
Our blood trails far behind us
As a map of our prior defeats
But this time around
I know it will change
We must unbury our nation
From beneath the ashes
We all must rise
And take care to not destroy
Everything that we create
This vicious cycle goes on and on
Will we ever see it end
This vicious cycle goes on and on
Will we ever see it end
We stand to carry on
With fragments that are left
We strive to make life work
A failing commitment
We are all but dust
We are all but ash
We are all but broken
But we'll never be done
We must unbury our nation
From beneath the ashes
We all must rise
And take care to not destroy
Everything that we create
Take care not to destroy it all
We have been dragged through the stagnant mud
And yet we still try to stand on our feet
Our blood trails far behind us
As a map of our prior defeats
But this time around
I know it will change

He's walking like a small child
But watch his eyes burn you away
Black holes in his golden stare
God knows he wants to go home
Children of the damned
Children of the damned
Children of the damned
Children of the damned
He's walking like a dead man
If he had lived he would have crucified us all
Now he's standing on his last step
He thought oblivion, well, it beckons us all
Children of the damned
Children of the damned
Children of the damned
Children of the damned
Now it's burning his hands
He's turning to laugh
Smiles as the flame sears his flesh
Melting his face, screaming in pain
Peeling the skin from his eyes
Watch him die according to plan
He's dust on the ground, what did we learn?
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
You're children of the damned
Your back's against the wall
You turn into the light
You're burning in the night
You're children of the damned
Like candles watch them burn
Burning in the light
You'll burn again tonight
Children of the damned
