Existence 01:20

Sanity is a reputation Clarity through the void-less rupture Separate from gods and demons We will not be bound This is our own existence

Indoctrine 03:15
lyrics
buy track
Constructed bridges to the other side Reaching across my skyline Carving a path to bitter isolation Like a prisoner shovelling ashes Bright lights they beckon Like a spectre devolving all in sight These fucking lights Oh, and the siren starts to turn Call forth this heresy False creatures dance with a decadence Indoctrine Now your feet start to bleed And you feel this sinking in See these eyes follow all With a ghost precision Oh, and the siren starts to turn Call forth his majesty Still those creatures dance with a decadence Indoctrine You fucking crawl across a broken glass floor You contradict The very life you had grown to adore You contradict yourself This buries me and I can feel The fucking stipulation You fucking crawl across a broken glass floor You contradict The very life you had grown to adore You contradict yourself

Swan Song 05:35
lyrics
buy track
A new dawn rises Brought signs of hope, signs of change Things would be different We would never stay this way Fought off the cycle Through rain and thunder we would fight Our pathetic attempt One chance to make this right Leave me Cast my body to the ocean Give me one last chance to breathe Sing your swan song Swing your arms Swing like axes to the sea I cannot forget what you did It's a constant reminder, a nightmare Burnt into the back of my head Thinking only of silence Blocked out, nothing left to feel But the dripping of my blood From wounds that cannot heal Leave me Cast my body to the ocean Give me one last chance to breathe Sing your swan song Swing your arms Swing like axes to the sea I tore a page out of the book That said that this would never last It drove the nail into the coffin Held ghost echoes of the past I felt the noose around my neck Like the way we would embrace I kicked the chair out, said goodbye I can't forget your face Darkness forever All hope lost without light Destined forever To walk alone this endless night Darkness forever Dawn won't come, the sun is gone Destined forever To bear this burden all night long

Torn From Travesty 03:24
lyrics
buy track
This ground is an enemy One step from a nuclear backfire Held down by a thousand feet Left alone by all I see the voidless broken soldiers torn from travesty I see the vultures paint the skies at night And now we question the teachings of an age Hands locked on the holes in our heads Crippled fools marching exhaled chains I cannot break before my existence Before the sunset clears Before I douse my fears We walk into the descended They speak in whispers They speak into my life It's just another step backwards In the wrong direction It's just another false bond I fear And it's breathing one last time Cleanse this world that we fight for die for Torn down by the air we live for It's in my dreams, it's just another step backwards I read the ending of an opportunity I saw the scribbles of another prophecy dead, dead

Demon of Paradise 04:08
lyrics

Breaking everything in my way On the verge of something Silhouettes of everything in my soul On the verge of desolate Cries are begging me halt this mess Catacombs filled to the brim Fissures crawling down the walls of sanity Demon of paradise enter my sight Emptiness of anyone brave enough to fall Bracing the friction Bracing skeletons in my head Nothing to build on but all that fell away Breaking addiction Breaking skeletons in my soul Nothing to build on but all that dissipates These streets they call to me I swear they enter me Always I fail to cipher This apocalypse This tomb it welcomes me And always calls to me But still I fail to cipher This apocalypse Demon of paradise enter my sight Emptiness of anyone brave enough to fall Bracing the friction Bracing skeletons in my head Nothing to build on but all that fell away Breaking addiction Breaking skeletons in my soul Nothing to build on but all that dissipates I am at your level and all I see is me My face in a mirror of hate and all I see is me Demon of paradise, I'm brave enough to fall Bracing the friction Bracing skeletons in my head Nothing to build on but all that fell away Breaking addiction Breaking skeletons in my soul Nothing to build on but all that dissipates

I Cried Wolf 03:49
lyrics
buy track
Washed up like a backlit memory She tears at the frozen webs Forced through to the poison canopy This is the trend Cold and broken Lost for words she cries Slave to nothing One more time Oh I'm gonna drag you to the depths of hell I fucking told you, you don't need anyone I'm gonna twist your mind and make you see You fucking blew it, your night has just begun Bitch, move Get on the floor, you're just an alibi No thoughts, no price, no sympathy Get on your knees and open wide Now suck this world fucking clean I am the chosen one Not this false being in the sky You are the ravaged one It's coursing through your veins Now you're fucking dead Get on your knees and open wide Now suck this world fucking clean There is no god above you No hell waiting at your end There is no god above you Nothing but the end
