1. Wasteland
For every Dead God who worships the living
And every lost Soul starving submission for all
The Tyrants will fall
Salvage the serpent
Born to rise when process seems perfect
It's wrong to all
And your Tyrants will fall
When thy art is hate
I've given it all I can take
It's Undeniable
When my Heart is fake
I've given it all I can break
It's unreliable
An affinity for the Hurt create new Death
And a love for the pain 'til your final breath and what Lies
Behind The lines somewhere in some other time
Behind the Veil obscured by my vision of hell
Dead in the sand proverbs for peasants
To bow on command an all-seeing presence
When thy art is hate
I've given it all I can take
It's Undeniable
When my Heart is fake
I've given it all I can break
It's unreliable
An affinity for the Hurt create new Death
And a love for the pain 'til your final breath and what Lies
Behind The lines somewhere in some other time
Behind the Veil obscured by my vision of hell
For every Dead God who worships the living
And every lost Soul starving submission for all
Behind The lines somewhere in some other time
Behind the Veil obscured by my vision of hell
Obscured by my vision of hell
Obscured by my vision of hell
For every Dead God who worships the living
And every lost Soul starving submission for all
2. Rapture In Exile
Fuck waiting around to die
When all my life I've been dead inside
Fear as a god
The final facade
The rapture in exile
The flooded red
And black as the winter ahead
Abstract and artifacted
When we are all either
Outsourced or outcasted
They'll melt the bodies down
To reclaim the plastic
And separated from their
Mothers in masses
Fuck waiting around to die
When all my life I've been dead inside
I am your enemy now
And you will never take me down
Fuck waiting around to die
When all my life I've been dead inside
I am the rapture in exile
Would you change it if you could
Or continue to realize
What you never understood
Is that this world could be yours
Would you change it if you could
Or continue to realize
What you never understood
Is that this world could be yours
But I don't think you want it
3. The Misery We Make
Out of your life and into your mind
Divided lines
Someone forgotten, something inside
Somewhere in time
Less, less than a sight
And never more than a sound
So vile and infectious
A lucid recount
And I'll never say what you want me to say
When I tell you everything's gonna fade
And I'll never be what you want me to be
When I'm in the misery that we've made
The misery that we've made
And when will I know
And when will you tell me
What we already know
This is all temporary
I, I was in doubt
Whenever you were around
Denial and acceptance
With or without
And I'll never say what you want me to say
When I tell you everything's gonna fade
And I'll never be what you want me to be
When I'm in the misery that we've made
When I'm in the misery
And I'll never say what you want me to say
When I tell you everything's gonna fade
And I'll never be what you want me to be
When I'm in the misery that we've made
Misery
And I'll never be what you
Want me to be
When I'm in the misery
4. Infinite Eyes
My dove of prey
Will you forever haunt me
I've lusted and envied
The one and the infinite eyes
And for now I see nothing but blood in the skies
I'm living a drug
The white tower and the blackened lungs
Release my body into the night
Nothing is sacred when nothing is right
So take me away from this spiteful life
Never mourning
Never leaving
Never setting and end or repeating
And every day
Is never complete
When every night you must fall asleep
And realize
There's some places you don't wanna find
And do what you want with me tonight
Just take me away from this spiteful life
I'm living a drug
The white tower and the blackened lungs
Release my body into the night
Nothing is sacred when nothing is right
So take me away from this spiteful life
Where nothing is sacred and nothing is right
Why are we standing alone
Anticipating what your life will become
When maybe this whole time
Self preservation your motivation
To whore lie and steal from the weak
It isn't veiled or discreet
Oh so what did you think
This circle will always sink
To the darkest depths of the obsolete
I'm living a drug
The white tower and the blackened lungs
Release my body into the night
Nothing is sacred when nothing is right
So take me away from this spiteful life
Where nothing is sacred and nothing is right
5. Futurist
Some fires will never die
Some will never ignite
Are you still living a lie
Or will you revel in the rest of your life
With every blinding light
I see the future inside
And I feel it even when I'm away from you
If I will, you won't
And if I do, you don't
And I'll do whatever you want
Whatever you want me to
Some fires will never die
Some will never ignite
Are you still living a lie
Or will you revel in the rest of your life
And I never listened when you told me
That I could make everything disappear completely
Another ghost in your life
Another spirit in white
Forever wondering why
I just wander in space and time
Some fires will never die
Some will never ignite
Are you still living a lie
Or will you revel in the rest of your life
That's when I knew
You are the one for me
And I'm the one for you
I feel you right where I left you that night
My ember lies
Separation of body and mind
Some fires will never die
Some will never ignite
Are you still living a lie
Or will you revel in the rest of your life
Some fires will never die
Some will never ignite
Time everything just right
And you can revel in the rest of your life
That's when I knew
You are the one for me
And I'm the one for you
I feel you right
Where I left you that night
My ember lies
Separation of body and mind
Separation of body and mind
6. The Great Oppressor
You hear that hidden voice, it tells you
You're never alone
You know the price you'll have to pay
To stay where you are
If anything compels you
To shut out the sun
I'll be there in that never after
Where everyone is gone
There's not a thought
And not a law put into place
To halt the fall
Of human creation
We'll never see and never understand
Just why we are the human intention
I know you're living a double life
Out of my mind like you're out of my sight
Reminded, rewired, fought envied, desired
I fell in the fire that night
I'll see you there for the rest of your life
Until the end of all time
I see the borders and they tell me
You've never been free
And every voice that's screaming out
Вegging for release
There's not a thought
And not a law put into place
To halt the fall
Of human creation
We'll never see and never understand
Just why we are the human intention
I know you're living a double life
Out of my mind like you're out of my sight
Reminded, rewired, fought envied, desired
I fell in the fire that night
I'll see you there for the rest of your life
The great oppressor buried in a glow so red
Living dead, we want what we can never
Levitated, ravenous, reanimated
Roaming, clawing the earth, a better ending
A slave, not a slave
I don't beg for forgiveness
Or exist in another's head
I won't give in
I'm the passion of someone
Who's never given a shit
I'm the mistake of your life
That tear-soaked embrace
Our one final moment in time and space
7. Anti-Axis
And maybe everyone else is wrong
And maybe you were the one
And I knew it all along
Anti-Axis and against all
Erase your head
And don't compare yourself to the rest
Find a mate and form a nest
And rest well every night for you are blessed
And well on your way to success
Wake me up when it's over
I know I'm not aligned tonight
We begin then it's over so
I know forever can never stay
And every beginning can never decay
Silhouettes and their descending phase
But it's not over, it's never too late
Separated and building a wall
Sell it well, push away
When the dawn is upon us
Wake me up when it's over
I know I'm not aligned tonight
We begin then it's over so
I know forever can never stay
And every beginning can never decay
Silhouettes and their descending phase
But it's not over, it's never too late
To be under attack
I remember you were wearing black
Everyone was singing songs to distract
Never ending, never giving back
Never knowing where you belong
Maybe everyone else is wrong
And maybe you were the one
And I knew it all along
Anti-Axis and against all
I know forever can never stay
And every beginning can never decay
Silhouettes and their descending phase
But it's not over, it's never too late
It's not over, it's never too late
It's not over, it's never too late
8. By The Starlight
Wake up my love, this is fading
Tomorrow is waiting and I'm going nowhere tonight
Wait up, don't wait up too late
I'll be out at the same place I always end up every night
Please forgive us
Carnivorous, to the moment I wake
Lay down, don't lay down to sleep
But you already knew
Some are endless while others they can never last
I know, I know you've been patient
While I've been escapin'
Always waitin'
For something you can never have
Please forgive us
Carnivorous, to the moment I wake
I love your lust
Mysterious
But there's always a way
Though in every mistake
To the moment I wake
There's things I'll hate
In everything we create
Forever light
Is all you create
Is all you've become
It's never too late
I'm not the only one
Please forgive us
Carnivorous, I'm not the only one
Please forgive us
Carnivorous, I'm not the only one for you
9. Lost For Life
Can you remember the day
You started your whole new life as a slave
High on empowerment
Yet cowering off as you piss down your leg
You were so proud but it's all gone away
Now it's either you're neutered or spayed
In the blink of the eye of the storm
Silent eyes go with colorless noise
Is it all by design
Tantalized by a prophet man
Оh, but it's a severed hand
And you'll never fucking understand
When you're polarized
You always knew it was just mud and sand
Oh, but on the other hand
Maybe it was all at your command
Trying eyes, c'mon and bless me with cyanide
Just don't wander too close to the light
Not alive, just lost for life
Lost for life
Sell me more, you fucking whore
I can't get enough
And now I'm on a negative rise
Not alive, just lost for life
Tantalized by a prophet man
Оh, but it's a severed hand
And you'll never fucking understand
When you're polarized
You always knew it was just mud and sand
Oh, but on the other hand
Maybe it was all at your command
I'm already gone
Returned to the sun
And if the thought should arise
Another repulsive chance for reprise
Too massive to ever escape
Yet I can't wait for impulse to provide
Trying eyes, c'mon and bless me with cyanide
Just don't wander too close to the light
Not alive, just lost for life
10. The Goddess Figure
Forever looking back
Forever tormented
So clever in disguise
And never was she fully realized
Take everything you have
Take everything you thought you ever knew
And leave it for the Goddess Figure
True I've been wrong
And I've been taught a lie
And can never go back
To the throes of a normal life
I'm in love with the world
Time waits in spirals and in circuits and
We stay in peril and imperfect and
Why wait for the silence to be heard when you are
The reason why I'm in love with the world
And when you follow in his shadow
You're devoured by your loss
Some pay forever with their winnings
Some stay in debt forever
False I've been true
And it's a lonely line of work that we do
Unto thee given no reply no affection so
Time waits in spirals and in circuits and
We stay in peril and imperfect and
Why wait for the silence to be heard when you are
The reason why I'm in love with the world
I've been brought up believing a lie
Her vision clearly burns in my eyes
Sun stay surrealist and infinite
Give all the true power limitless
Now I'm alone with a poison mind
It's enough to know
Time waits in spirals and in circuits and
We stay in peril and imperfect and
Why wait for the silence to be heard when you are
The reason why I'm in love with the world
11. Lunar Divide
Trapped under your race, and under your glow
Been away for too long to know
How we ever began, and how we ever will end
I never wanted to be the one
I thought I wanted to be alone
Oh, but I need this now, so much more than I ever have
I see the morning light
And live for this moment
Yet I celebrate the night
With anyone, anywhere
Now that you've been on my lunar side
(Now that you've been on my lunar side)
And maybe you'll never know
And maybe you'll never get this right
Separated the body and mind
Are you someone I'll never find?
Follow me right into the center of
My secondary life, into the crypts, divide
I forget what it's like to close my eyes
I see the morning light
and live for this moment
Yet I celebrate the night
With anyone, anywhere
And now that you've been on my lunar side
(Now that you've been on my lunar side)
And maybe you'll never know
And maybe you'll never get
This is not what it seems
Lifelike infinity-dreams
Wilted lacks giving same
Lifelessly wandering away
This is not what it seems
Will anybody ever be enough?
Oh, just a crushing and hollow crush
Lifelessly wandering and forever following
Somebody has this dream
Will never want to ring
Never want to rewind
I see the morning light
and live for this moment
Yet I celebrate the night
With anyone, anywhere
And now that you've been on my lunar side
(Now that you've been on my lunar side)
Maybe you'll never know
And maybe you'll never get this right
12. Beneath The Blackening Sky
Fall on command
Either you wait for an end
Or already been called on to be
Every lion and lamb and broken belief
Split the atom in three naturally
Decomposition in sweltering heat
The sublime the sick and denied
Time is a crutch yeah time is contrived
When the salt of the earth is bland
And I'm prowling
Just a predator in the end
And I've horded
But somewhere I lost
What I thought was mine
The sublime
And in your own selfish way waste away
Thrown out of the one place you thought you were safe
Prophet thee prophecy was never related and never believed
When the salt of the earth is bland
And I'm prowling
Just a predator in the end
And I've horded
But somewhere I lost
What I thought was mine
I feel your breath
Down my spine
I've never been so close to divine
Beneath the blackening sky
Come alive
Forever winter and forever night
To the bone to the rind
Perpetual motion or frozen in time
Feel your breath down my spine
Forever winter forever night
When the salt of the earth is bland
And I'm prowling
Just a predator in the end
And I've horded
But somewhere I lost
Everything I've known
An empty world to forever roam
Fall away fall apart
Until never is real
And nothing is right
13. Surrealist
[Bonus Track]
Oblivious then you opened my eyes
Have I been asleep my entire life or lost
Lost and unable to follow?
It's the same thing you always said
"Am I alive or just living dead?"
They're not, not unrelated or far off from
Sorrow, I need a reason to exist
I know that you've noticed
I wait 'til my words are swallowed
And I'll never understand
Why you waste your whole life without facing reality
All life is one
And tell me how did you ever find yourself back where you said you'd never
When I wake up I never know just what I'm facing
I know what it's not
It's not the same person I used to know as
Sorrow, I need a reason to exist
I know that you've noticed
I wait 'til my words are swallowed
And I'll never understand
Why you waste your whole life without facing reality
All life is taken and given to none
I know you better than myself
And you won't recognize what's become of me
For I am no longer in
Sorrow, I need a reason to exist
I know that you've noticed
I wait 'til my words are swallowed
And I'll never understand
Why you waste your whole life without facing reality
All life end and begins with the sun
14. Hypatia Rising
Burn alive when your whole life you're just taught to die
And fear your instincts and form a line
Trust no one you can't look in the eye
Trust yourself you can find where the power lies
The world has changed the world is changing
Empires fall and centuries craving
A shift a wall a rift
A knowledge of self
Of solace and health
Look inside you can find where the power lies
And ride by the starlight and know why
You could never relate to the world
You could never rely
You can sever the state from the land
But not the day from the night
Not the sound from the sight
Fade into a magnetic north so true
A passing phase under a blood red moon
Make it right and show me how to sell the light
And find where the power lies
And ride by the starlight
And know why
Look above laughing when all is lost
15. Departure
Finally silently I go and take with me
No one to take on the world that I've known
This body has gone to the ends of the earth
But may never know any place to call home
Like the future is dead like the future is lost
What matter can shatter the surface now
What makes you think there's a purpose how
Do you live like your past is a god
Well I live like the future is dead and lost
It's a sign that you never were meant to know
Some time it's a knife it'll cut you up
I take this wherever I go
And what lies ahead nobody can know
And I won't wait for any other
All will come to pass in time
The story closes on another
Day of fire fate of mine
The dove the eagle and that vulture
Fly from the flesh into the ever after
