VEIL OF MAYA LYRICS

1. Lull

2. Fracture

Fall, the bodies fall

I am the immortal
Chosen to judge your sins
Through the worst is spoiled
Judgement will bring you death

I will tear the flesh
Desecrate you
These peasants will see who stands over them all
As their bodies fall, as their bodies fall
The reign of the king who will never be gone
Will destroy you all

Standing as towers
Staring down at the coward
Standing as towers

These monsters burn in vain
Their victims have themselves to blame
Unleash the wolves from hell
Devour the souls and engorge yourselves

Engorge yourselves

All on their knees the weak will weep
Gasping just to breathe
Cold and dark
Compassion has fled
Death lives here instead
Through our streets, a river of red
I smile at the dead

I smile at the dead

I never said I'd show any mercy
(Throw 'em all in the pit)
I never said I'd show any mercy
(Throw 'em all in the pit)

I am the immortal
Chosen to judge your sins
To the ones disloyal
Judgement will now begin

3. Doublespeak

Betrayed and forgotten
Erased and led astray
Retribution
When the core has rotted
It begins to erode away
Execution
Suffer in pain
You can not evade

Turning your back on the bond we've made
You've dug your own grave
And now your terror is mine to shape
I'll watch you die afraid
Tidal waves
They're washing me far away
Islands of misery
Can't escape
Disintegrate what we've made
Shattered trust cutting deep
On these islands of misery

Turning your back on the bond we've made
You've dug your own grave
And now your terror is mine to shape
I'll watch you die afraid
Tidal waves
They're washing me far away
Islands of misery
Can't escape
Disintegrate what we've made
Shattered trust cutting deep

There is no life left in these bones
Emptiness has swallowed me whole
There is no light within this soul
Emptiness has swallowed me whole

Turning your back on the bond we've made
You've dug your own grave
And now your terror is mine to shape
I'll watch you die afraid
Tidal waves
They're washing me far away
Islands of misery
Can't escape
Disintegrate what we've made
Shattered trust cutting deep
On these islands of misery

4. Overthrow

Within isolation
Controlled and made blind
Weathered desolation
Is wiped from our eyes
As I speak I begin to find belief
Powers in between
Reach for me

We refuse to live
Only sparing breath
We're caged in silence
We will soon begin
Bringing forth the end
To all this madness
Hold me high above the rest
We speak through defiance
We refuse to live
In this pattern of death
Return the violence

We refuse to live
Only sparing breath
We're caged in silence
We will soon begin
Bringing forth the end
To all this madness
Hold me high above the rest
We speak through defiance
Hold me high above the rest
We speak through defiance

You're built out of lies
We will not live caged in silence
Deception contrived
We will not rest
We are the defiant
Rise out of the rust
Out of the wreckage
Built out of lies
Born of the flies in despair

We refuse to live
Only sparing breath
We're caged in silence
We will soon begin
Bringing forth the end
To all this madness
Hold me high above the rest
We speak through defiance
We refuse to live
In this pattern of death
Return the violence

Rise

5. Whistleblower

Attempt to claim my life
I'll shatter your bones
And to your widowed wife I'll serve your remains
Wallowing in spite
My inner turmoil comes to life
Cultivating deprivation
Vicious mental separation
Cultivating deprivation
Vicious world of tortured souls
They'll fear me in the afterlife
I'm calling their names
I will haunt you endlessly (haunt you endlessly)
They'll fear me in the afterlife
I will haunt you endlessly
Now I will bury your name
And to it all that binds
Inside the darkest cave
I'll burn your remains
You will be erased
I never thought you'd dare to take what is mine
My inner turmoil, it comes to life
They'll fear me in the afterlife
I'm calling their names
I will haunt you endlessly
They'll fear me in the afterlife
I will haunt you endlessly
My inner turmoil comes to life
I'll shatter your bones

6. Echo Chamber

Arise, arise in failure, failure
Forgiven for the all, the all

This dead space inside of me, it bleeds me dry
This dark space has finally made up its mind
Drifting from my mistakes as I fall away
To outrun the hurricane that trails behind

I'm made to face this shame I have
Tripping on the same beliefs that I once had
I'm made to face this shame I have
Wishing I could turn away and take it all back

Arise, arise in failure, failure
Our bones are made to rot, to rot
The lost, the damned, the broken traitors
Forgiven for the all, the all

In my mind alone shadows watching me fall
Down this hollowed hole to insanity

This dead space inside of me, it bleeds me dry
This dark space has finally made up its mind
Drifting from my mistakes as I fall away
To outrun the hurricane that trails behind

Face the guilt
I turned away but they just forced my hand
Enough, enough
Find the will to put away the past and just repent
We must, we must

As I slip out of place
An eclipse masks my face
And I can't fabricate
A new name on this grave

Face the guilt
I turned away but they just forced my hand
Corrupt, corrupt
Find the will to put away the past and just repent
We must, we must

Even when you find yourself alone, alone

Arise, arise in failure, failure
Our bones are made to rot, to rot
The lost, the damned, the broken traitors
Forgiven for the all, the all

Face the guilt
I turned away but they just forced my hand
Enough, enough
Find the will to put away the past and just repent
We must, we must

7. Pool Spray

Prevail

I saw a vision where I was young and divine
Believed in fiction, it pushed me over the line
Soaked in the waters of a perpetual hate
Come bow before me as I deliver your fate

This world was never enough
Ascending high up above
Acknowledge what I've become

They said to me I will be nothing
They said to me I am too weak
They said to me I will be nothing
They said to me I am too weak

I almost believed I would be nothing
As they shackled their words to my feet
I almost believed I was too weak
I have rose from beneath

I have lived in this vision for all my life
And every moment that I have spent here is compromised
As I gain focus, I see myself through a different light
And I've now noticed that I am not who I had in mind

A demon has control of my mind
The darkness sees through these very eyes
I've come to claim what's rightfully mine
Bow or pay with your life
Speak your last words to my knife

Never enough
I've risen up

I have lived in this vision for all my life
And every moment that I have spent here is compromised
As I gain focus, I see myself through a different light
And I've now noticed that I am not who I had in mind

I saw a vision where I was young and divine
Believed in fiction, it pushed me over the line
I never meant to lose my self control
Now I fall headfirst through this abysmal hole

8. Graymail

To the prisons with those who disobey
Where they shall rot and decay
And to the few who dare deceive me
Your heads will roll on the pavement beneath me

I will unhinge this world
My endless reign is all that I can see
I will unhinge this world
Knell at my feet or die in the streets

Your ridicule has made me what I am
What I am

To the honest men I've broken apart
But they fail to understand
That their ridicule has made me what I am

To the prisons with those who disobey
Where they shall rot and decay
And to the few who dare deceive me
Your heads will roll on the pavement beneath me

The hate you placed that made yourself crave ending
Famished ambition to eradicate you
When you're cast out, when you seek forgiveness
May you then realize your worthless existence

The red stains
The red stains

To the honest men I've broken apart (broken apart)
But they fail to understand
That their ridicule has made me what I am [2x]

Stained in red

The rodents will feast on your insides
Your ridicule has made me what I am
Your ridicule has made me what I am

9. Manichee

We should not expect
The worst from ourselves
Or it's all we'll receive
We should not descend
Below our own selves
We'll get trapped underneath

We lie in suffrage
We're treated as mistakes
Feeling defeated
With crippled spirits
But we refuse to break
Our hearts not depleted

No control
We're unsustainable
On the ropes
Fighting and capable
Standing at the edge
Are we still worth it
No control
We're non retainable
Lost in smoke
But we're not replaceable
Clinching to our pledge
We are not worthless

We lie in suffrage
We're treated as mistakes
Feeling defeated
With crippled spirits
But we refuse to break

Our hearts not depleted

No control
We're unsustainable
On the ropes
Fighting and capable

We lie in suffrage
We're treated as mistakes
Feeling defeated

Weakness overwhelms us all
Tranquil thoughts will overcome

10. Citadel

Along the way
Mistakes were made, they'll call it fate
A world of slaves
Driven insane and thrown away [2x]

Like birds to worms
We don't need them, we just feed them
None of our concerns
Will ever reach them, we are beneath them

Deprivation
Annihilation

Along the way
Mistakes were made, they'll call it fate
A world of slaves
Driven insane and thrown away

A world of slaves

Among the ones who've given up
Loathing and dead weight
Has held us down for long enough
We'll forge a pathway

Nothing is seamless
Reset the sequence

A world of slaves

Along the way
Mistakes were made, they'll call it fate
A world of slaves
Driven insane and thrown away [2x]

A world of slaves

11. Follow Me

In slavery of the blood thirst
Drink from their hearts
If your brother shows mercy
Tear him apart

(Clean)
Follow me through the winds that curse our name
Out into the lands of the slain

These machines will not see defeat
As they sever your arteries
Mindless skeletons under control
Slay them all 'til their blood is cold!
Watch their limbs fall at your feet
Move your eyes
Through which I can see
With your hands, tear through their flesh
Don’t bother cleaning the mess
Kill all the rest
Beg to be freed
You’re wasting your breath
As you try and speak
Under siege
Brought to your knees
Your imminent death awaits as you plead
Suffering
Follow me, follow me into the land of the slain
Cursing their names we ride
Follow me, follow me into the land of the slain
Cursing their names tonight

12. Tyrant

Decide
Live or die with those who dare defy
Stand up and testify
Breathing in dark poison
Toxins ripping apart your skin
Lungs are burnt wide open
Let the black smoke fill and close them

Looking back again
Every single thing in this world will end
Broken once again
We will never last in this pit of sin
Shame looks over us
Deepening the feeling of remorsefulness
Regret

We must not resist
Genocide will end this pit of sin
Take out your knives and claim all of their lives
Leave cadavers where they lie mangled alive
Run for your lives as death follows behind
Now the reaper has arrived

Try to survive

Those who deny my name will finally die
All your organs will be mine
Take out their eyes
I will decide your fate for you tonight
Hold their heads up towards the sky
Tear out their spines

Try to survive

I've ruled over a thousand suns
My destiny has seen itself through
I have avenged my suffrage
The torment now feasts on the minds of my people
You shall always and forever know my pain
The very pain which you have brought upon me
And in the end I will be no more
Deep inside all I want is to die
My rise is my demise

13. Livestream

From the dust
I rose up and brought hell
Unchained but captivate
In hate I dwell
The power controls me
Darkness, the Goddess who knows me

I'm ashamed of what I've become
Sick of myself
Sick of being numb
I'm ashamed of what I've become
I am not enough
I have given up

I'm not who I was
(Who I was)
And I wish I was a better man
But I am who I am
(Who I am)
I crawl from the dust
(From the dust)
And I've never seemed to understand
But this is who I am
(Who I am)

I've disgraced this crown of blood
I am simply not enough
Forgive me for giving up
Salvation can't save what I've done
Lost and stricken with despair
Crippled kingdom lies unrepaired
Despair

I long for the moment I no longer breathe air

I'm not who I was
(Who I was)
And I wish I was a better man
But I am who I am
(Who I am)
I crawl from the dust
(From the dust)
And I've never seemed to understand
But this is who I am
(Who I am)

I've disgraced this crown of blood
I am simply not enough
Forgive me for giving up
Salvation can't save what I've done
Lost and stricken with despair
Crippled kingdom lies unrepaired
Despair

Accept my fate
Ascending now skywards
My body shakes, the top of this tower
I face the ground as I lean my weight forward
Their digital eyes watch as I fall downward
A final inception, it calls through the air
I pray as I'm falling
The power is there
I pray as I'm falling
The power is there

I'm not who I was
(Who I was)
And I wish I was a better man
But I am who I am
(Who I am)
I crawl from the dust
(From the dust)
And I've never seemed to understand
But this is who I am
(Who I am)
