1. The Oncoming Storm

(инструментал)

2. End Of Days

At first, we never saw the signs
Our gaze diverted as the spring was slowly coiled
An enemy that bides its time
You never feel the heat until you start to boil

We searched the farthest skies
For proof we weren't alone
But they were hiding in plain sight
They watched us spiral down
Start to destroy ourselves
Divide and they will conquer
We'll die without a fight

The sky is burning
Lands and cities lay destroyed
As mankind's questions
Scream into the silent void
We line our coffins
As our children we betray

We walk as blind as rats into a maze
To the end of days
We dreamed our fate befit our plans
But we were pawns that moved by other hands
A game that's soon to be revealed
But will we see the moves before the end is sealed

The endgame is declared
The pieces are aligned
We haven't long to heed the call
To see the master plan
The enemy within
United we must face them
Together stand or fall

We had the warnings
But we still refused to see
Abandoned reason
And proclaimed it could not be
We sell our futures
And descend to selfish ways

Revere false idols
As all hope decays
In the end of days

Can we avoid our fate
Before it is too late?

The sky is burning
Lands and cities lay destroyed
As mankind's future
Turns and stares into the void
We stand upon the brink
The final act we play
A war to end all wars
Our hearts ablaze
At the end of days

3. Head Above Water

You brace yourself, once again, to face the new day
Your inner voice, screams again, fear anticipates
Outside your door, there's no control, no way to stay safe
Society is lost, its broken down, bring on the end of days

You know they're lying
Their eyes betray the truth
Inside you're dying
Either way you lose

Locked in your cell, once again, your mind is haunting you
That inner voice, screams no more, now you don't get to choose

Unwanted eyes are watching
Turn away to avoid your gaze
Helps a long way from coming
Singled out you turn to shade

We fight, unite, to keep our heads above, above the water
We fight, unite, to keep our heads above, above the water

4. Final Cry

So is this how the mighty fall
Lost your way after a lifetime
Worth of disappointments
Beaten down and you kept
Getting up but continual punishment
Grew too much
So now see where you are
You've reached the end, the end of your line
The end of your life

This is your final cry

You have a feeling, discomfort unknown
Pressures building into emotional overload
Senses screaming, pain sends tears to your eyes
Worlds problems weigh heavy but your desensitised

So they test you
To prove their truth

Will you fight what they say
Or surrender
So they test you
To see what you will lose

Will you fight what they say
Or surrender
So they test you
To see what you will lose
Will you fight what they say
Or surrender

Enjoying excess, you can never say no
Obeying cravings damage is untold
Pass the whiskey, same thing everyday
Pills you want to help you, but can you turn away

Now, this is the end, a foe or a friend
Live or die? This is your final cry
How will you mend, it cant be the end
have to fight, this is your final cry

Stare into the mirror, as a stranger reflects
Years of self loathing what did you expect
Now a glimmer of hope is set to lead you away
Listen to my guidance and you'll live another day

Now, this is the end, a foe or a friend
Live or die? This is your final cry
How will you mend, it cant be the end
have to fight, this is your final cry

So you lost the feeling, comforts now known
Alleviated pressure, no emotional overload

So they test you
To prove their truth
Will you fight what they say
Or surrender
So they test you
To prove their truth
Will you fight what they say
Or surrender

Now, it's not the end, for I am a friend
No more lies, This is the final cry
Take my strength, your last line defence
This is mine, this is my Final Cry

5. I Agonise

Everywhere – Corruption

I see the difference in society
Degradation, failing to disease
Look in the mirror what do you see
The creator, a victim or the free

I need to know If you have learned, are you all with me?
I need to know If you've been turned, is your conscience still free?

Everyone, locked in denial
Can't see the truth, I agonise
In our world, regions are dying
It's ours to lose, I agonise

Is there a land where man can be brothers
No division, human rights smothered
Those wielding power, pretending to care
But self preservation, priorities impair

I need to know If you have learned, are you all with me?
I need to know If you've been turned, is your conscience still free?

All around, locked in denial
Hide the truth, I agonise
Challenge all, struggle is endless
We fight on I agonise

I see the difference in society
Degradation, failing to disease
Those wielding power, pretending to care
But self preservation, priorities impair

Everyone, locked in denial
Can't see the truth, I agonise
In our world, regions are dying
It's ours to lose, I agonise

6. Songs Of A Broken Future

We hold the question in our hearts
Repeat it every day
We long to choose our path
But often lose our way
We yearn for the next dawn
Lost in dreaming
Forever wait to be reborn
It's why we wake up screaming

It's hard to see the track
Tomorrow looks so black
We search for reasons why
Consult the empty sky

Who am I? What am I?
Is this the life I'm meant to lead?
If I am – why am I?
Why do I burn, why do I bleed?

No meaning, uncovered
Cry out forever
We join as one and sing our
Songs of a broken future
No answers, discovered
We stand together
Forever bound to sing our
Songs of a broken future

The world is set afire
For selfish dark desire
Our time is running short
Our final battles fought

We struggle, we suffer
For grasping hands to take it all
Corruption, dishonour
Condemned to toil until we fall

Unequal, unending
This ground we cover
Our voices raised aloud in
Songs of a broken future
This one life, descending
We have no other
The sand it slips away to
Songs of a broken future

Who are we? What are we?
Is this the life we're meant to lead?
If we are – why are we?
Why do we burn, why do we bleed?

No meaning, discovered
Cry out forever
We join as one and sing our
Songs of a broken future
No answer, uncovered
We stand together
Forever bound to sing our
Songs of a broken future

8. The Jester's Smile

Now you all see as I slowly walk away
No cries how fake will make me turn back
No time to soften the blow take back the pain
Lamentable laughter follows me

No time for shame no regrets
Laughing all the while
The horror when you finally see
What's behind the Jesters smile

Now I stand to judge, how does it feel
The tables turned upside down on your world
I will right the wrongs you did to me and society
Oh dear is that fear I see in your eyes

No time for shame no regrets
Laughing all the while
The horror when you finally see
What's behind the Jesters smile
No time for shame no regrets
Laughing all the while
The horror when you finally see
What's behind the Jesters smile

I was the one who suffered most of all
They say family can be cruel and I know it to be true
Why did you treat me this way
What caused your desire for my pain
Were my imperfections so offensive to you
Hate has fueled my recovery now I seek vengeance

Now you know my vengeance, how is it
Searing pain, will soon know relief or will it
No time for shame no regrets
Laughing all the while
The horror when you finally see
What's behind the Jesters smile

9. The Tragedy Of Life

Building yourself a home
Building yourself your new life
Follow your dreams and the places they
All will lead
When your are young time is yours to do with what
You please

Colours change according to
What phase of life you're at
Bright and vibrant they lead
You to your future plans

Embrace all that you have
Every day may be your last
Look around you, remember to smile
That's the Tragedy
The Tragedy of Life

Time starts to move on way to soon
Time starts to run away from you
Now you're looking back instead of
To your future years memories once made you smile
Now brings on tears

Seasons change but they move
On way too fast
Accelerate as every year
Gets closer to your last

I know how your story goes
And I see your future history
Don't cry over days gone by Precious is what's left of time
You know what was meant to be
When tears fall for the tragedy

10. Until The Memories Fade

You tread carefully as you navigate to home
And walk carefully through the darkness
But when it comes to the past
Your lose your cautious approach
Recklessly stamping across the time lines

So you live with all kinds of pain
And the mask is mimicking your face
Emotions push so close you almost break
Now breathe until the memories fade

Keep answering intrusive questions
Probing on your request
Invasive to the upper limits
You feel emotions you detest

What did you really want to know
And what did you really want to see
Was it worth all the painful memories
Was it worth all your fallen tears
Digging up all the past
Realising your worst fears for evermore

I hold your hand to give you freedom
I hold your hand to lead you to the truth
Now are you ready to breathe again
Open your eyes and see

Until the memories fade
Till they fade

11. Stand Or Fall

Horrific scenes all around me
Crying victims all surround me
Pointing fingers blame another man
Falling short as revolution planned

Flames light the darkened skies
Stand fast, and stand tall
A thousand ways to live your life
Will you stand or will you Fall

Think fast and how you'll act
The mighty front the lethal attack
Lead the line with the demon blade
Arrows fly free whilst enemies evade

I know what you know
I see what you see
I am the conscience leveling insanity

I am the voice screaming
As you make them all bleed
No defence for your continuing inhumanity

Stand. Stand or Fall

12. Children Of Tomorrow

We hold the answers in our hands
Our future history will count the score
We are the ones whom fate demands
Must rise above the hate that went before

We heed the call

We have the chance to change it
And end this sorrow
We are the children of tomorrow
If we can learn the lessons
The path to follow
We are the children of tomorrow

A better world can lie ahead
If we can only lose our fearful pride
And heed the words the wise ones said
That more things join us than they do divide

We're one inside

There is no outer limit
How far we can grow
We are the children of tomorrow

No more to sell our future
To beg or borrow
We are the children of tomorrow

The road turns out of sight
We stand to face this fight

And when we hear the tyrants' shout
Our voice as one must drown them out
