SHADOWS FALL LYRICS

1. The Unknown

As the axe comes crashing down
Dragging us beneath the ground
Abandoned here you're gone without a sound

All you've taken, all you've said
Still hear your voice inside my head
Beaten, broken down and left for dead

Leave me to die
No more denial
No more restraint
No more conscience
And I will seal your fate

So close your eyes
And live in the unknown
Forsaken by the world
Your life has turned to stone

Balance of your mind decays
Only flesh and bone remains
The fire of the afterlife awaits

No more denial
No more restraint
No more conscience
And I will seal your fate

Just close your eyes again
There's no escape
Just close your eyes again
Your life is mine to take

So close your eyes (so close your eyes)
And live in the unknown
Forsaken by the world
Your life has turned to stone

There's no escape

Just close your eyes again
And I will seal your fate

So close your eyes
And live in the unknown

Surrender your free will
Your life has turned to stone

There's no escaping this!

So close your eyes (so close your eyes)
And live in the unknown (the unknown)
Forsaken by the world
Your life has turned to stone

There's no escape

2. Divide And Conquer

They've been living
Off the salt that's in your tears
Thriving on our suffering
For all these years
Reprogram our conscience
Twisted thoughts infect our mind
Tear apart our senses
Leave us paralyzed and blind
Abandoned and forgotten
We're standing on our own
Unite and rise together
And we will take control
System corrupted
That is feeding on itself
You divide and conquer
We find true wealth
The children of the after thought
The ones you left behind
Your neglect has built our strength
And through it all we will survive
Abandoned and forgotten
Shatter our faith and trust
You've taken everything
It never seems to be enough
You've taken everything...
Lost
Lost
Generation left for dead
Faith
Faith
No more faith no more trust
Lies Lies
Deft everything you said
Die Die
Through it all we will survive
No more compromise
Shatter our faith and trust
You've taken everything
It never seems to be enough
No more compromise
And through it all
We will survive

3. Weight Of The World

Haunted
By the life you wanted
Trapped by the hands of time
The end is near
And the end is what you fear
Fading
Hell is right here waiting
In the silence of your mind
Through your hide
Cannot kill the ghost inside
Are we born to bleed
The world consumes you
Can't breathe
Suffering
The world consumes you
These dreams dies before my eyes
Our futures lost and left to die
Running deep into the night
Abandoning the fight
As you flee
Turn your back on your beliefs
Chaos breathes life into the fire
Consumed by your desire
To save yourself
Save yourself and no one else
Are we born to bleed
The world consumes you
These dreams have died before my eyes
Our futures lost and left to die
It seems there nowhere left to die
Our futures lost and left to die
The panic will begin
It never seems to end
Trapped inside
How long will this torture last
The walls are closing in
You've given up again
The weight of the world crushes you into dust
These dreams have died before my eyes
Our futures lost and left to die
It seems there's nowhere left to hide
Our future in nothing

4. Nothing Remains

Cannot find a reason why
Stop your life while you get high
Refuse to move refuse to try
Close your eyes and wait to die
All our heroes
Will burn
Burned in the fire
And now nothing remains
Through these swollen eyes
And this clouded mind
Time to face another day alone
(On your own)
You've been down this road before
The warning signs that you just ignored
You're on your own
Wrapped within the rings of smoke
With every ragged breath you choked
The only way you can cope
Forget the dreams forget the hope
Through these swollen eyes
And this clouded mind
Time to face another day alone
(On your own)
How long has it been
When will it ever end
Stumbling along until we die
(Until we die)
All our heroes
Burned in the fire
Nothing remains
Kill for just one night of rest
No matter how hard you resist
It digs it's claws into your soul
The demon never lets you go
Through these swollen eyes
And this clouded mind
Time to face another day alone
(On your own)
How long has it been
Will it ever end
Stumbling along until we die
(Until we die)

5. Fire From The Sky

Red sun at day break
Burns and blinds the eyes
And though our bodies ache
We march on or we die
Silence of space
Is torn by cries
Another hopeless world
Prepares to die
Are those the eyes of god
That burn so bright
Or the hands of death
Reaching through the night
The shadows creep
Darker than dead of night
Nowhere to hide
Your hunted by the light
Crushed by the weight
Of our own demise
Torn apart by gravity
Our world will not survive
Are those the eyes of god
That burn so bright
Or the hands of death
Reaching through the night
Death comes swiftly from above
Fire from the sky
The universe has come undone
Fire from the sky
It's own destruction fuels
A stars hunger to consume
Laying silently in its path
Planets await thy doom
Solar flared ignite the sky
And twist the atmosphere
Death is inching closer
Kill the light awaken fear
There's nowhere to run
There's nowhere left to hide
We are hunted by the light
Death comes swiftly from above
Universes come undone
There's nowhere left to hide
Are those the eyes of god
That burn so bright
Or the hands of death
Reaching through the night
Death comes swiftly from above
Fire from the sky
The universe has come undone
Fire from the sky

6. Save Your Soul

Guilt will twist the blade
Everyday the knife cuts deeper
How much more of this can you take
Your fake smile fades
Your public face has cracked and broken
Cannot run and hide from your mistakes
Your time is running out
This life of fear and doubt
Its not worth defending
The guilt is never ending
Judge not
Before you judge yourself
Regret
The only thing you felt
Too late
It's too late to save your soul
How far
Will you let it go
Your fate
Is not in your control
Too late
Its too late to save your soul
Your hollow words will never be enough
Haunted in the truth
The innocent paid for your actions
Always seem to crush the ones you love
Hide in your excuse
It strangles like a noose
Its not worth defending
The guilt is never ending
Judge not
Before you judge yourself
Regret
The only thing you felt
Too late
its too late to save your soul
Try to run and hide
Until the day
Until the day you die
All your foolish pride
It wont help you survive
Until the day you die
its not worth defending
The guilt is never ending
Judge not
Before you judge yourself
Regret
The only thing you felt
Too late
Its too late to save yourself
How far
Will you let it go
Your fate
Is not in your control
Too late
Its too late to save your soul
Try to run and hide
Until the day
Until the day you die
All your foolish pride
It wont help you survive
Until the day you die

7. Blind Faith

Unleash confusion
Hid every single trace
For everyone they kill
Ten more will take its place
Begin a never ending race
Every turn you change your face
Things are never what they seem
Thought that you were closing in
Lose your ground begin again
An endless cycle your trapped within
Cant believe
Conformity
Is enslaving me
Believing was your first mistake
Never asking questions
Deceiving but you learned too late
Bleed us dry and say were free
Buying everything they showed
No more questions do as your told
Revolution came and went
The walls are closing in
You'll pay the price for others sins
I cant believe
Conformity
Is enslaving me
Believing was your first mistake
Never asking questions
Deceiving but you learn too late
Bleed us dry and say were free
Conformity
Is enslaving me
Fight to be free
Believing was your first mistake
Never asking questions
Deceiving but you learn too late
Bleed us dry and say were free

8. Lost Within

Depression breeds like rats
And turns your soul to black
You no longer care that you feel nothing
Bow down
And serve your master
Bow down
Your life is mine
Will you survive the day
Or will you disappear and fade away
Heard all you have to say
Lost within the grey
Your will has disappeared
Breath in the soulless air
An undead memory that's slowly fading
Bow down
Your life means nothing
Bow down
Your lost within
Will you survive the day
Or will you disappear and fade away
Same lies told another way
Lost within the grey
You sacrificed all that kept you strong
Changed your mind the minute things went wrong
Turned away from what you created
Bowed your head and served the ones you hated
I thought I knew you well
Now only time will tell
Will you survive the day
Or will you disappear and fade away
Heard all you had to say
Lost within the grey
You're lost
You're lost

9. Walk The Edge

The night keeps reaching on and on
Kill the sun bury the dawn
A race begins that no one ever seems to win
The line remains unbroken
Smashing the doors wide open
All of my fears are blown away
My eyes are blinded
By the ice and snow
I walk the edge
(I walk the edge)
Just to feel alive
Lost in the endless night
I walk the edge till the end of time
I walk the edge
(I walk the edge)
Just to feel alive
Still trapped between the lines
I walk the edge till the end of time
I walk the edge
I walk the edge

10. The Wasteland

There is a darkness to the world
Too blind to see
You can't believe
That your way of life is dying
Strike at the heart of the machine
Dispel the poison
Kill the thieves
The walls of Babylon are falling
So leave me out on my own
Out here where I belong
Believing all you burned will live again
We're free and standing strong
Tear down the unknown
Standing on our own
Your system will be overthrown
Your world ground into dust
Bodies covered in ash
Cities burned to the ground
Your walls fall down
So leave me out on my own
Out here where I belong
Believing all you burned will live again
We're free and standing strong
