1. Finest Hour

Rise up to these bitter times
To uncertain rhymes
Find yourself between the lines, end of days

Within these pages lies a written memory
Of the story of the fallen ones
The pride and freedom, of the ones who risked it all
Made the sacrifice and gave their lives
Cause they were...

Free men, with the will to live
Knowing it would cost their lives
No flag or fail to end the night
Restore the broken pride

Where ever we may fight
In the wrong or right
Devotion and courage sees us through the night

On these pages
We'll write our history
Write the story of the world at war
Pride and freedom, we're the ones who risked it all
Made the sacrifice and gave our lives
Cause we were...

2. Words I Failed To Say

Tired enough to let it go
Awake enough to fight
Too proud to know you've sunk so low this time
Leaving you with an unknown reason
The strength to do and thought to see somehow

Now a life's work looks withered on your tired face
A new man I see with my eyes

Forces strike again, it's pointless to pretend
We can help the evil that's inside you
Taken away, but remembered to this day
That's what I failed to say while you were here

To live as young men in the prime of our lives
Chances lost, sights unseen

3. Fall From Grace

Dreams of freedom
Lost in this forsaken land
No one left to find you
Running scared
Fooled by those greedy hands
Familiar places become new

Same old song
Pick up where the old ones left
He said he'd heed our calls
Far too long
Another reign at his behest
Dreams of freedom call
Hope is gone for all

Rob us, drown us in your evil lies
We don't recognize this place
Free us, promise us a brand new time
This will be our fall from grace

Brand new day
New beginning, same old end
Safe in his little shell
Chance ends soon
His opportunity to change
Then we can break his spell

Fear not my child, your day will come
Into the wild don't fear

4. Where We Started

Attack this broken soul
Take and leave me in
You think that I forgot you
Destroying part of me
You don't even know
Your scent is all I breathe

You left me long ago, walking on my own
You swear you won't return
In times of clarity, sky breaks through the clouds
And you will leave me be

Flash of truth, back where we started
Your peace, my war

It's warm inside this lie, the world escapes me
Just me and you again
You only wanted peace, for you that's the end
But all I got was war

The distance suits you well
You get to miss the show
I pray that you, you're happy
While I descend to you

Flash of truth, back where we started
Your peace, my war
Miles away, too close for comfort
Your peace, my war

5. Breaking The Curse

Another wasted night without you
Empty bottles to the side
Scattered pages lie around me
Written words of better times

I won't let you be the key
Unlock what hides inside of me
A restless soul that longs to see
What it can truly be

A lyric of a new beginning
A war against my demons will
Exorcise these thoughts from my head
Make time stand still

6. Regeneration

Without a paddle in the darkest sea
From the shore they call to me
Promising all of my dreams
I fade into the night

Change this life laid for me
Take home and pray
Take reality, take this life from me, oh no
I'm not free

Empty words, shattered pride I had
You lead me down a path of shame
The stories I write for myself
I'm not of your kind

Take reality, take this life from me, oh no,
I'm not free
Soon I'll rise and see, what I am to be, at last
Regeneration

My blood coursing through my veins
The gift for what I have done
Til now hiding bliss from me
This truth will now set me free

7. Watch The World Collapse

See the smoke reach to the sky
Visions of my demise
A sight best left unseen
I know I'm not awake
But the pain I still feel
Who am I to say what's real

Free fall into paradise, a world of lies, when you
Free fall you will see what you cannot be

Take these memories when I wake
Of the years that have gone by
Emotions I can't deny
To have lived another life
In a world non-existant
How does one live again

When you feel your life is over
But you're really just asleep
When reality surrounds you
Realize it's just a dream

Try to leave this dream I'm in
These cold hands hold me down
Pull me deeper in my mind
I feel I'm going to drown
I see the world collapse around me
Feel the walls cave in
The sky is torn, the world is burning
I can't escape this hell

My sanity has betrayed me
This can't be real...

8. Take You Over

How can I forget
If you cannot forgive
The past, ever haunting
I've nothing good to give

Fear overcomes you
Driving you insane
Feel it take you over
Feel the warming pain

When I close my eyes
I see you night and day
I dream of my revenge
You took and now I'll take

With left inside
You tremble in this...

9. Forgotten Forever

Mirror sees a different face
From what you recognize
New light cast on old place
And seen through empty eyes

One moment's thought defines a lifetime
And this moment will be yours
Take this time to see your new reality

You hear them calling
No one else will know
Don't you ever let these cracks show

When your thoughts become lost
What was good becomes bad
All at the damning cost
Of all you ever had

Another mind lost to the depths
To see what no one else can

An existance cast in a memory
And forgotten forever
