DARKNESS DIVIDED LYRICS

1. The Point of No Return

Accomplishing what's necessary,
To answer for morality,
Your forgiving nature seems to favor my side,
When I don't question what's intended what else could be mine?
To love in infancy,
Ignorance is ecstasy,
To trust and not to see,

[Chorus:]
Could you open my mind,
Revealing what's inside?
Denying everything you left behind,
Fear won't contain,
The others stray.

Destiny decorates my hand,
Decaying the worry of man,
To love in infancy,
Ignorance is ecstasy,

[Chorus]

Control decays,
As your years fade.

Following carefully to your end.

To love in infancy,
Ignorance is ecstasy,
You see me with eyes of envy,
You will know veracity,
To trust and not to see.

Fear won't contain,
The others stray.
Control decays,
As your years fade.

2. Back Breaker

Restore.
Simplicity of the innocent,
Something taken for granted,
Follow reason to find the end,
Until there's no more times to lend,

Push, push, push until your worn,
Pull the rope until it's torn,

What you have is more than what you conjugate,

[Chorus:]
I will not remove,
The essence of my morality,
Forsaking, my misdeeds,
For the need, to believe,

But now I stood tired and hungry,
Looking at my past unloving,
How did I forget my direction,
Guided by misguided affection,

Everything has felt the same,
Faults initiate my blame,
Time to revive,
Time to restore.

[Chorus]

Grab hold of moments worth remembering,
While the beat in your heart is still pumping,
This is something resonating in me,
Now that I have returned and I am starting to see.

3. A Life That Binds

I've been walking the line,
Following a life that binds,
You taught me freedom comes,
When you release conviction,
Commands to live a life,
Never learning what's inside,
I've been saved by birthright.

[Chorus:]
Quit pretending,
To understand me,
Doubt has consumed me,
I can't escape it.

I've been walking the line,
Following a life that binds,
You taught me freedom comes,
When you release conviction,
Commands to live a life,
Never learning what's inside,
I've been saved by birthright.

[Chorus]

I am starting to question why,
They say believe just because they know it's right,
Pick up your head and don't bother asking why,
I will not be convinced this time.
Give me a chance to question what is right,
Will blind obedience accommodate,
A soul that never knew the gates?
I've been saved by birthright.

[Chorus]

4. Wake of the End

My heart breaks in the wake of the end,
The decay of flesh with no time to lend,
Years of endless trying,
Years of tithing for what's worthless,
With no purpose.

[Chorus:]
Where will I go,
When there's no hope at all,
And I am numb to breathing?

I look around at the world,
Conflicted by what I see,
Everything I lived for,
Is failing to birth growth,
Spinning to death,
I see him wait,
With his scythe at his side,
Spinning to death,
Relief will rise at it kills me,

[Chorus]

Where do I go when there's no hope?
Where do we go?
Where do I go when I am numb?
Where do we go?

5. Misery

I've seen things,
I thought I could only dream,
I've read the book,
But I'm surrounded by misery.
Imperfect, yet inspired,
Life in the cracks,
Contradicting humanity.

I can't comprehend,
This twisted reality,
There has to be,
Substance in inconsistency,
Weaving time and reality,
Is faith the only thing holding up my belief?
In the darkness my eyes show me,
There is so much more that I can't see,
How defined can I be?
My fate is dependence fueled by needs,

Who will you help?
When the whole world bleeds,
How will you help?
When your whole world bleeds.

Oh Misery, why have you left me questioning,
My existence,
Father will You come and show us,
How to live again?

My lack of vitality,
Affirms my humanity,
I boast not of my sufficiency,
But to demand of Your authority,

Is this the point for everything that I'm feeling,
Is compassion supposed to drive my yearning?
The love You put on my heart,
Wasn't just mine from the start,
We were cut from the vine,
Pruned to be Your congregation.

[Chorus]

Every inch of my being questions,
How to repay,
The agony the laceration,
That cured my Misery.
My Misery.

6. Deceiver

Your heirs are full of lies,
Just when my soul,
Longs for more,
The world evens the score,
I want to admit that Your words are true,
But Your children slander all that You do.

How can You let them control,
What they refuse to uphold,
You claim to conquer the dead,
But it's the living that I dread.

Breeding disaster,
To please their master.

[Chorus:]
Deceiver,
You left Your mark,
Lost souls embracing the dark.
Believer,
Where is your heart?
Lost souls embracing the dark.

Judgment and condemnation,
Setting wars between the nations,
Death reigns in Your name,
How can I believe this is how it should be?

How can You let them control,
What they refuse to uphold,
You claim to conquer the dead,
But it's the living that I dread.
I am a victim of Your purging,
You sent Your sheep to bury me.

[Chorus]

As the sickness sinks in,
Where is Your plan?

7. From Dust to Stone

Gaps filled with trusting,
A mind with no holes,
A heart engulfing,
The depths of my soul,
I searched the world that gave me no gifts,
I walked to the very end of my bliss,

And even vacancy denies my name,
My name,
And decency begins to fade away,
Away

[Chorus:]
Every essence of my being,
Leaves me questioning,
Who I'm meant to be,
Who I'm meant to be.

Corrupted society,
Breeding false propriety,
Popularity breeds promiscuity,
I can't buy back ignorance that I lack.

And even vacancy denies my name,
My name,
And decency begins to fade away,
Away

[Chorus]

Teach me to be a man,
Who doesn't need to understand,
Every fabric of my being,
Is this what it's like,
To end uncertainty,
Is this how it feels?

[Chorus]

8. The Answer

I am weak,
Omni potency,
A dream, unachieved by mankind's means,
The essence of your consistency,
Hold you from what you'll achieve.
I'm not the answer to earth's urgencies,

You can't pray to me,
You can't pray to me.
I am not the answer,

[Chorus:]
You are what I cannot be,
The answer to everything,
All that I need,

I am weak,
My infatuation,
Started at creation,
Soon after I was lost in the separation,
When I was the mirror of desperation.

You are what I cannot be.

[Chorus]

The only thing,
I could possibly need,
Is more,
The only hands,
That could hold up my feet,
Are Yours

[Chorus]

9. Deliverance

I lived under the tree of life,
Feeding off whatever is left,
After the kings have feast,
Ignoring my every need.
The first will be the last,
But this strain will break my back,
The strings I pull are getting shorter,
And the flame is getting warmer.

What if You're nothing,
And I've been deceived by trusting,

[Chorus:]
Show me to believe,
Because life will claim,
All that I've ever known.

Everyday I've raised the sword,
To separate everything you left ignored.
With the words in my hand,
And the faith in my heart,
I've seen the sword rip existence apart.
Judgment burns you left and right,
Don't you dare cross to my side,
Rumors cripple the image,
You create,

[Chorus]

What if You're nothing,
And I've been deceived by trusting,

But what if I'm wrong?
I can't conceive a world without You in it,
I can't believe there was a time,
That You did not exist to me,
As my spine bends back,
And I'm about to break,
There You stand with my feet misplaced.

[Chorus]

10. Mirror of Death

As my blood drips from my heavy heart,
I yearn for that second start.
The seasons are unchanging,
How can it be?

[Chorus:]
Now I cannot see,
Cannot feel anything, anymore,
Now I've lost it all.
Oh how can it be?
How can I see anything, anymore,
At the end of it all?

Please forgive my undiscerning,
Questioning my yearning,
I was the transgressor,
Please hold me together,

[Chorus]

11. The End of It All

Break down the abode,
And with the flames let my name go,
Deteriorate what I've lived with,
The ground is all that is left to believe in,
Tremors shake and collapse my home,
An earthquake from a burning dome,
The core of my existence,
Engulfs everything I've built on it,
Is this the end of it all?

[Chorus:]
If this is temporary,
Will You show me what lasts,
From ashes I cry out,
Is this the end of it all?

Creeping lies and ill promise,
Crumble the world upon us,
Deceiving nature drives the herd,
Misunderstanding the word,
False lies and unjust doctrine,
Prosperity forgotten.

Flames burn all that I know,
Is this the end of it all?

[Chorus]

Hold fast to what is left,
The only thing I hold close,
Life fades away,
Life fades to grey,

[Chorus]
