1. Crushing Belial
First strike of the creation
Shakes the earth at its very core
Pangea shattered, humanity is scattered
Separation for evermore
Eternal conflict, waged since the dawn of time
A delicate balance waits. This evil seems to be undermined
As the battle lines are drawn, and the kingdoms choosing sides
Concealed from his light. Abandon all that unifies.
Been fooled so long by the lies of this unholy adversary
Flee the lies
The Godhead has been split, exiled by mankind
Although we're out of reach, His message transcending time
As the battle lines are drawn, and the kingdoms choosing sides
Concealed from his light. Abandon all that unifies.
Been fooled so long by the lies of this unholy adversary
how can we free this world, it soon will melt away
As we await the wrath of a God Betrayed
how can we save this world, it soon will melt away
As we await the wrath of a God Betrayed
Rise stand take over, we are crushing Belial
Rise stand take over, we are crushing Belial
Alone I am feeling caught within it's wind
When I noticed all hope is lost and blwon away
Never knowing what may come
never showing what's been done
Realized potential so long in denial
Cast off this shadow, escaping Belial
Redemption of the forgotten
Redemption of the forgotten
how can we free this world, it soon will melt away
As we await the wrath of a God Betrayed
how can we save this world, it soon will melt away
As we await the wrath of a God Betrayed
Rise stand take over, we are crushing Belial
Rise stand take over, we are crushing Belial
2. Of One Blood
Abandon this search for an ultimate reality
Your words only used to conceal the true meaning
Never speaking from the heart
As you've built a wall of lies, silence falls
Awakened all that you despise
These lies, our chosen roles
force-fed your values and your goals
Why? You won't see
Truth: unity
Bound eternally
Reincarnation of the eternal soul
This struggle forever in our blood boils
Withstanding these attacks
Lay waste to all your claims
Kept chained no longer
Finding strength in all your shames
These lies our chosen roles
Force-fed your values and your goals
Why? You wont see
Truth: unity
Bound eternally
Forgiveness for those who stray
Protection through unity
Forgiveness for those who stray
Protection through unity
These lies, our chosen roles
Force-fed your values and your goals
Why? You won't see
Truth: unity
Bound eternally
Forgiveness for those who stray
Protection through unity
Forgiveness for those who stray
Protection through unity
3. Fleshold
Dying over and over in my mind
As you twist the knife I wonder why
Why you bothered to take this time
too concerned with yours I should think of mine
Do you sleep alone thinking of me (I can see)
While I sit alone wondering what could be (while I dream)
Do you lay with another but not with me (you've never been alone)
I sit alone because you're not with me (you're not with me)
My pain is all inside
Until razor and arm collide
From my heart upon the floor
Take my blood but you take more
Do you sleep alone thinking of me (I can see)
While I sit alone wondering what could be (while I dream)
Do you lay with another but not with me (you've never been alone)
I sit alone because you're not with me (you're not with me)
Take my life, you take more
Of my life, take some more
Just let me die
Dying over and over in my mind
As you twist the knife I wonder why
Why you bothered to take this time
too concerned with yours I should think of mine
Do you sleep alone thinking of me (I can see)
While I sit alone wondering what could be (while I dream)
Do you lay with another but not with me (you've never been alone)
I sit alone because you're not with me (you're not with me)
Of my life, take some more.
4. Deadworld
Drowning yourself in a world of lies
Wandering lost, until the ego dies
Perceptions been tainted by your lack of free will
We have become what we once most feared
The brilliance of the light's been dulled to grey
Denying our souls of the most noble truths
Trapped within and blined by youth
We must end this wicked game
Mourning a dead world
Empty life of relentless shame
Mourning a dead world
See through what's been taught to you
Mourning a dead world
Breathe in life and seek the truth
Mourning a dead world
As progress paves the forest and paints the sky
Cities rise like caner, rive of life is dry
Spirits of ancients will then awake a rise
The seal is broken, final sign of our demise
Awake and rise
Redemption fires
Burn the lies
Redemption fires
5. Stepping Outside The Circle
Here I go again
A vicious cycle without end
Seeking distance for security
A desperate act to remain free
A balance point cannot be found
This whole thing will come crashing down
Down! Down!
My fear will drag you down
Into this world that i create
Your love for me has sealed your fate
Down! Down!
My fear will drag you down
Can I trust in what i feel?
Praying that this time it's real
Feel the strain!
All this times been spent in vain, MY SHAME!
open wounds that still remain, DECAY!
As my faith is stripped away, YOU'LL STRAY!
The final price I have to pay
Digging in deeper still
The hollowness I yearn to fill
The story always ends the same
The cycle soon begins again
Stepping outside the circle!
6. Thoughts Without Words
Having awareness but no true sense of self
You find yourself enslaved in chains of earthly wealth
The unending chatter that plagues the mind
Confusion will be all that you find
Chaos reigns in an untamed mind
Still question all i know advancing foward
This fallacy i have disowned
You must quench the yearning and false desire
Only balance will elevate you higher
You must train the body and the mind to serve
Envisioning thoughts without words
Chaos reigns in an untamed mind
Still question all i know advancing foward
This fallacy i have disowned
Encaged in a world that fear creates
You must release yourself and liberate
I am seeking the way...
7. Destroyer Of Senses
The sweet taste of self destruction
Waves of purity wash away the memories
I keep on falling off
I keep on falling off
The agents of change will dissolve
Into the fabric of our very existence
I keep on falling off of this straight
and narrow line
The calm embrace of a sedated mind
Giver of life
Destroyer of senses
I INVOKE!
The sweet taste of self destruction
Waves of purity wash away the memories
I keep on falling off of this straight
and narrow line
The calm embrace of a sedated mind
8. The Idiot Box
Staring fowar with vacant eyes
Imagination Cannot survive
Misinformation and compromise
These televised conditioned lies
Create a system of belief
Heartless purveyors of deceit
Seems clear to me you've never known me
Doubt everything you've never shown me
Images flash by in waves
What to buy and what you'll save
All the products that you never craved
you've become another slave
All the lies that you told
I will not be bought or sold
I won't fit into your mold
I will not be bought or sold
RISE! And break away from the system
RISE! And crush the voices in your head RISE!
I want back what you stole from ME!
9. The Light That Blinds
A crack forms in the foundation
Fault line through your defenses
Illuminating the essence
Once clouded by a myth
Store bought conformity
Force-fed duality, I warp reality
The comfort that you will find,
As you remain hidden.
The light betrays,
casting your true self away,
They remain blinded.
As Vanity possesses me
I am turning further away
Gripped by a belief in empty words
Driven by a need to prove
The shell may wither
But the fire burns eternal
You hide behind
...cower...
The light that blinds
Will never find
What burns inside
You remain blind
Behind the light
10. Enlightened By The Cold
When you never know
Is when it's always there,
It seemed so clear...
The slightest touch
To catch the breath,
It turns it all around
Single path that I can see,
Emptiness devours me
Enlightened by the cold.
It overcomes the torment.
(What if I could bring you back?)
Enlightened by the cold
Enough to burn through walls
Built on anguish
Can I be revived?
Let it hit with force
Strong enough to blind.
The numbness heals.
My worth is only defined
By the next disaster
11. What Drives The Weak
This time released security
Controlled dose of tranquility
Forgetfulness washes over me
Put to rest the voices of insanity
Only the sinners remain
As another night
Becomes a yesterday
Come on! Anesthetize the panic
It is what drives the weak
You're gone! Anesthetize the panic
Putting all uncertainties to sleep
Not an altered state of mind
But a safer place in an unsafe world
Within the nearness of death
Rapture in the skip of a heartbeat
12. Inspiration On Demand
Where has it all gone?
Have all of the words escaped?
Inspiration on demand
Emotions all displaced
'And I will wander endlessly
Seeking all the answers that I let slip
through my fingers.
I will wander endlessly
Seeking all the answers that
I let slip and fall away.'
Turn it all around
It melts into sound
(unfolding... ever growing)
Torn from my rest
Though I still fight to stay.
The images dissolve
As the day invades
A second to react
The mind too slow to act
(unfolding... ever growing)
Drown the voices of restraint
Make them choke to silence
Incinerate the ropes
And embrace the hope
(unfolding... ever growing)
Splintering the doors
Free the mind to soar
(unfolding... ever growing)
Turn it all around
It melts into sound
13. The Power Of I And I
We are given the gift of creation!
We are given
All of the light
And purity of the universe
We are the ones
Who will create
The snarling beasts of human nature
The world withing myself
ALL IS ONE!
The power of I and I
True piece of mind
Is not bestowed
Upon us by the heavens.
The evils of man
Are spawned within
The confusion of our own mind.
Hiding the purity that flows
From the root of which we rose
ALL IS ONE!
14. In Effigy
You will never give the power
To the powerless
Your ideal has grown
Far beyond your control
Can you ever find yourself again?
Your vision's distorting
Knowing it will never end
Can't see through your eyes
Can you imagine what is only
One step away?
The potential is waiting
Just beyond your grasp
Can you ever find yourself again?
Your vision's distorting
Knowing it will never end
Can you keep fighting on and on?
This false me will burn
In effigy
This false me will burn
In effigy
It's so easy to relax
And watch from afar
It's so easy to give in
To this complacence
Can you ever find yourself again?
Your vision's distorting
Knowing it will never end
Can't see through your eyes
15. Seize The Calm
The shimmer of understanding
Grasping to maintain
The cold touch of chaos
Are you in control?
On the edge, how did it come to this?
As we stare into the abyss
This world will only be
A pleasant lie or bitter truth
Somewhere buried deep within
Is a light that forever shines
On the edge, how did it come to this?
As we stare into the abyss
On the edge, on the precipice
As we stare into the abyss
Seize the calm
It holds more than life
Fading
Falling
Weightless and shameless
