Rarity of Reason
05:13
|
|||
As transcended men,
With a cause sent from below
They oppose,
Any paragons of virtue
For a seed of hate to grow
Propose one thought
Emotions brought
To fortify your assertion
A defective refutation
Roar!
A malicious beast,
Has ascended from the deep
Time for war!
The words of malice and rancor,
My vitriol is yours to keep
Dogmatics creed,
Make vicious deeds
A foundation forged with flaws
And absent self-perception
Lay this crooked soul to rest
It's the least we can request
Take a loss for the greater good
And you'll reclaim your path
No lessons can be learned,
For a tender soul
Who lost control
All the views remain unturned
Use your mouth of gold,
Descent of mold
Your mind has long been cold
The rarity of reason rise
A tragedy before our eyes
Too long have voices had malevolent intent
To those who can't see past, lesser dissent
Mountains will crumble before they concede defeat
Exclude conversion, all facts are obsolete
Move straight to hate, negate what you have heard
Assert, divert, to show your disconcert
No lesson can be learned,
For a tender soul
Who lost control
All the views that remain unturned
Use your mouth of gold,
Descent of mold
All facts are obsolete

Prometheus
04:01
|
|||
Take the step
Fear not the dark
Always search for the restless
Curses given are blessings
Will I let go of this or will I just transpire?
When you build a truth,
Be careful what you choose
They will not be led and I will not die in here
I carry the flame
All will know my name
May the fire save you all
All this pain I feel
My wounds will never heal
The fire was my call
Prometheus!
Dead man's tale
Endless wail
Body's frail
More than flesh and blood could ever stand
Born titan
No longer sane
Numb with pain
Serpents' constant degrading exhibitions of defects
Torments, ambitions, piercing the sun
I am Prometheus
This life is just blood
Reject,
Torments, ambitions, piercing the sun
I am Prometheus
This lifetime is my payment
It's contagious
The story is written
Dried on all the pages
My destiny, chosen
Bring the new dawn,
Sun-child
Right before the end-times
My destiny, free will
I chose this
I carried the flame
All know my name
The fire saved you all
When you build a truth,
Be careful what you choose
They could not be led and I have not died in here
I carried the flame
All know my name
I will not be missed
All the pain I feel
My wounds could never heal
The fire was my gift
Dead man's tale
Endless wail
Body's frail
More than flesh and blood could ever stand
Dead man's tale
Endless wail
Body's frail

Through Hidden Space
04:26
|
|||
A cunning notion in my mind,
A hint of mischief
Lurking treachery is common here
Fortifications of thick ice, malefice slumber
Breach the walls without a sign of fear
Acts of commotion
Through hidden space
Mayhem resides in the chamber of frozen blades
Beyond the guise of hidden screams
Appears a tome of shattered dreams
In search of service for the weak, unforeseen rapture
Sorrow of the servant put on hold
Deceiving words through serpent teeth amidst the turmoil
Master of serenity returns to cold
Acts of commotion
Through hidden space
Mayhem resides in the chamber of frozen blades
Patterns of immorality
To feed profound tenacity
A master,
No devil
Disaster,
Torn apart
Break the bonds of reflection
Stare into the projection
Walls are falling down
Walls are falling down
Acts of commotion
Through hidden space
Mayhem resides in the chamber of frozen blades
Frozen

Legions
03:55
|
|||
Terrified,
A feeling of burning alive,
Not breathing, miniscule life
One with the mindless drones
You pathetic worms
Will-less
Weakness
Doomed to crawl
Senseless
Choke
Chose to fall
I will not fall,
I will be tall,
I will be one of few (x3)
Pointless aspirations,
Dead-set on a lie of luck,
You need to transform…
See them lord all over you
Victimhood did no one good
Lift the shroud,
You could've been proud
Legions
Legions, of no allegiance (x4)
Legions, of legions, of legions will rise
Legions, of legions, of legions will fall
Legions, of legions, of legions, dead eyes
Willful downfall
Get up, get up, get-get up
March!
Sleepless
Meekness
Chose to crawl
Restless
Croaked
Too damn small
I will not fall,
I will be tall,
I will be one of few (x3)

Human Slave Machine
03:10
|

Stand down for what you believe
Separate reality
Wash my feet and you’ll never be alone
My will now, you all shall atone
Heretics’ last mountain of ash
Special wicked caste
Kneel down and swear to me,
And I promise to set you free
Chains forged with bonds of greed
Whatever more do you need?
Built
To
Last
Human slave machine
Remembrance of ages passed
Wicked tongues amassed
Towers for a kingly fool
Spun their tales with finest wool
Reverie all can believe
Nothing remains true
A selfish sacrifice
Feed the sickness
Burn in excess
Bow!
Dogmatics portrayal of excellence
Screeching echos of violating innocence
Recollect the man who died for our sins
Walls painted with blood of the pacifist
Human, slave, machine
Human
Slave
Machine
Human slave machine

Undermine My Suffocation
04:35
|
|||
The lack of sympathy is lucid,
An aberration hard to grasp
Profess the agony and its ability to diserupt mentality
Hands upon the altar
A new conclusion to my name
Degrading remedy, these words of wisdom be
The end of my mortality
The gift of freedom arrived
All dread has been cast aside
These words forever be, marked as my enemy
I can no longer pretend
You claim to be a friend,
Even though in the end
Empty words, no correlation
Shipwreck, drowning here,
Leave me be
Undermine my suffocation
When I speak my truth,
You choke me
It stumps me deep inside
I’ve tried to be, one like you
With glee-like cyanide
The gift of freedom arrived
All dread has been cast aside
These words forever be, marked as my enemy
I can no longer pretend
You claim to be a friend,
Even though in the end
Empty words, no correlation
Shipwreck, drowning here
Leave me be
Undermine my suffocation (x2)
The gift of freedom arrived
All dread has been cast aside
Those words forever be, marked as my enemy
I can no longer pretend (x2)
Undermine my suffocation
When I speak my truth,
You choke me
It stumps me deep inside
I’ve tried to be, one like you
Rather take this cyanide

Anguish to Dust
04:00
|
|||
Resting sickness,
Shrine of pure malignity
Stillness,
My own terra incognita
Semblance,
Distorted Elysian
Absence,
No free will of
Mind
I
Find
Myself in delectation
Agony
Cavity
Ecstasy and Lust
Rise,
My luminous illusions
Find a way to deceive me again
Lies,
Deprived of reality
The endless echoes
Fictitious memories breed
I have lost all trace of conformity,
Between truth and aspiration
Blinded by a self-made dark harmony
I'm just longing for a time
When my eyes can see clear once again
Rise,
My luminous illusions
Find a way to deceive me again
Lies,
Deprived of reality
The endless echoes
Fictitious memories breed
I
Tread
Anguish to dust

I am What Remains
05:42
|
|||
Ligaments of pain and anger negate the quality
Of a triumphant, aspiring soul
What was once a swarm of hope
Has turned sharp and cold,
A resistance of the things meant to be
Constrain emotions gist,
Desecrate the lore
Unable to resist
Constant alteration make poisoned veins
Distorted face, I am what remains
Disengage somatesthesia
Stay deaf to dissidents
Rise again as incarnation of death
Valorous attempts to show no remorse
As the pain reverberates in your breath
Repetitive defeat
Remedy before your eyes
All that's seen is pure deceit
Evil laid its claim on a spirits fate
Contorted bliss to hate
Deprived of everything that is felicity and contentment,
Left alone with a torched carcass
Decrepit silhouette comes to mind
It can't be shown, it must stay confined
It hurts to state I am what remains,
The fallen one who lost all to pain
