We must strive for our dreams. We cannot deny our hearts. The hourglass is shifting. We must find a way.

Cage 02:53
Wake up and burn with me, for we are alone. Wake. Burning skies, pulverized, bloodbath. A perfect suite to evil mind. We are trapped in a cage, this is not meant to be. Wake up, burn with me. I will show you, how deep this can go. Lies or truth? This is a wake up call, another pride of words to freedom. Let us unify, and make it simple. Dont be scared now, ignorance is far behind. The system will fall, before you even notice, the blind wash. Mindless power, weak format. It is all corrupt. Where the fuck are the answers? Burning skies, pulverized, it's on repeat, killing us all. This is your choice, for we live in a cage. Humanity far forgotten. Die trying.

Restless 03:16
Can you sleep? Now that the massacre has finally arrived, and now your friends are fed to the pigs. Will you sleep? Bring it. Under the iron sky, marching they come, marking up, everyone, no you wont escape. Under the iron sky, marching they come, marking up, everyone, no you wont escape. Escape for noone, forevermore. Noone will escape this. You are lead to deep sleep. Under the iron sky, marching they come, marking up, everyone, no you wont escape. Under the iron sky, marching they come, marking up, everyone, no you wont escape. And when the march of terror ended, all that was left of the land was the quiet wind of death. Was this it? Wind of death, and ashes. ashes.. Shoot, shoot, shoot, make them bleed. Shoot, shoot, shoot, no mercy for the deceiver. No mercy for the enemy. Will you sleep? Can you sleep?

I am lost Born to a wasteland,to taste, smell, see, what weve so loved to wear until, nothing left. Nothing left! Mark the words for mould, will be cheap as gold. Is this really whats left, left for the youngest to feast? Only the spine of an animal. This is unbelievable. until the sky decends, May you be happy to, (We are waiting to be sick) Consume fucking everything Mark the words for mould, will be cheap as gold. Mark the words for mould, will be cheap as gold. Is this really whats left, left for the youngest to feast? Only the spine of an animal. This is unbelievable. The atlas cries. As you sit on it all, pointing names, licking fingers. wake me up on the day when the sky is not raining black tears wake me up on the day when the sky is not raining black tears wake me up in the morning when the sky is not raining black tears...

Are you trying to take me under? Down! This is the part where we collide. This is the part where you take your choice. You were not meant to do this. You! Your'e running in circles, your'e running in circles for life, baby! Give us this knowlege, no matter how, we need this more than anything right now. Hardest of all, help us choose, From the hardest paths of all. All. Under. Are you trying to take me under? This, Line. _______________________ We have no answers left. Take this road, or follow me. We are too blind to see, we are too blind to see. We need this more, than anything right now. Hardest of all, help us choose, from the hardest paths of all. All. Are you trying to take me under? Down! This is the part where we collide, this is the part where you take your choice.

Prophet 04:09
Im high of the demon's inside of me, they are saying my name. Over and over again. Take my blackened bones, take my burned lungs. This is all i have left. The becoming works from in to out. The prophet call's my name. Let me hear the rain sing, sing the darkest song. we're high of the demon's inside of us they are saying our name's. Over and out, again, over and over again. we are not living, not living our lives no one will notice, the unwanted death. Be damned, for life is an option, you chose, but under these conditions. we are not living, not living our lives no one will notice, the unwanted death. We are all as good as dead, so why give in? Use your every fucking bone. Use your every fucking bone. Use, your, every fucking bone. While you still can.

Odyssey 04:13

To rip our hopes and dreams Silently, we get torn apart. We have entered a dream, harvesting has begun. The harvesting has begun. As confined rights to live cripple the lightened ones. An illusion so tight, blindness revealing sickness The evil men know their game, this sick race has found a way (to rip our hopes and dreams). An illusion so tight, blindness revealing sickness. For once, men have to look in the eyes of the creator. Chemicals, Please soften the nerves of martyrs Please soften the nerves of martyrs Please soften the nerves of martyrs...
9.
Exodus 02:45
This is not a redemption, for we lay waste to our home, called upon ourselves to make something happen. This is no redemption. Ride. We walk, die. Remember this my friends, for we are facing extinction. We claim you to climb down from the top and face us, eye to eye. We walk and die. Ride out, to make things right. We must find, the inner knowlege. Human race ride out, to make things right My very last breath stand's up. It stands up. It has never been so evolved.

Walking, on this bitterness road Breeding death stories to friends Thinking "I cant be trailed" Until the day, your heart collapses. Yeah Who tought you bled, this night? The sins behind your teeth and tounge Have become one. Who tought, the end was so sharp and shiny? (F*ck you and all of your d*ck crew.) Blood trickle on the asphalt Cold night, on the street I wont save your skin Nomore. You're so cold Body left, lifeless In seconds, the desease is vanished In years, we will forget
11.
False Eden 03:21
There is always going to be a time, but will you do something, when the time comes? People with nothing more to give staring with their empty looks, in the eyes of a greedy bastard. Condemned system for condemned nation, no need to fix anything, throw it all away. Where is the point of being free when other half of us are in pain? Searching in the minds of the most of us, seeking answers to questions, left unanswered. Where is the point of being free, when other half of us are in pain? Where is the point of being free, when other half of us are in pain? Where will you run to, when there is no place to go? what will you do, when there is no elysium left to escape? Where will you run to, when there is no place to go? There is always, going to be a time, but will you do something when the time comes? Beware the footsteps, they lead to our doorstep, and this doorstep, will be our own doom.

I loved the fucking siren As limerence took me away. Chained, and buried, beneath every lie. This will take some time, better worry, you have a dept to pay. Now who's left in the forest, The forest of apathy? An endless treeline, they watch your every move. An endless treeline, as you burn in regret. Walk to your nest and bury all the shame, that is in this flesh. Walk to your nest and bury all the shame, that is in flesh. I loved the siren. As limerence took me away, i liked the way that she sang. Sleeping at the gates of heaven's hell. Sleeping at the gates of hell. Sleeping at the gates of heaven's hell. Sleeping at the gates of hell.
