1. MAN ON FIRE

Fear of the sacred
We're blurring lines between the real and the fake here.
And so I scream, "Return to me.
Return to me. Return to me."

Breathe slowly; take shallow breaths
So I shut you down; there's nothing left
Why are all the saints sick of governing
the knowledge that we're insane?
Dear body, come to haunt me
We drive ourselves through the fire's light

"Free me," said the man on fire.
"Release me to the higher.
Fighting certainty I know, I won't regret this."
"Find me," said the man on fire.
"Release me to the higher.
Forever in the dark alone, forgotten."

My passion must be frightening
I just shout to the dark
And all I have is screaming
I see paranoia, dark is calling me
All the voices of the souls that used to be
I must find a way to drown out the sound
I must find a way to drown out the sound

"Free me," said the man on fire.
"Release me to the higher.
Fighting certainty I know, I won't regret this."
"Find me," said the man on fire.
"Release me to the higher.
Forever in the dark alone, forgotten."

Set me alight, for I am losing it.
Set me alight, for I am losing it.
Set me alight, for I am losing it.
Set me alight, for I am losing it.

Fear of the sacred
We're blurring lines between the real and the fake here.
And so I scream, "Return to me.
Return to me. Return to me."


2. SHADOW, A CREATOR

She beckons me, like a siren calling
Her bite will take your soul, frozen where you stand
My eyes have never seen her so cruel
The wrath she brings, steals the warmth of my soul

Draw near, let us keep our minds,
Don’t let the dark and the cold take your lives
Hear our prayers
May the God’s keep them near
Pray our shadows will appear
Hear our prayers
May the God’s keep them near
We must hold on until the new year

Stay safe, until the frost is clear
To hide ourselves away, until the sun appears

Her voice upon the wind, let’s me know she’s calling
Three have fallen, but we remain, surrounded
Pain turns to absent feeling

Our grasp may weaken but our hearts won’t be still

Draw near, let us keep our minds,
Don’t let the dark and the cold take your lives
Hear our prayers
May the God’s keep them near
Pray our shadows will appear
Hear our prayers
May the God’s keep them near
We must hold on until the new year

Stay safe, until the frost is clear
To hide ourselves away, until the sun appears

Feel the cold, when the winds blow
Feel the cold, when the winds blow

Stay safe, until the frost is clear
To hide ourselves away, until the sun appears
Stay safe, until the frost is clear
To hide ourselves away, until the sun appears


3. THE TORCH

I’m told the end is not far away
I’ve seen the change, it’s ours to save
Before the sun has time, has time to fade
We must light the torch, to find our way

I felt the earth moving today
And I saw a change in the waves
The sky went from blue to black
And all leaves have all been burnt away
We have to find a way to turn back the hands
Our time is running out, I can see it in the sands
Don’t be afraid, for we can change
I have seen the future told, but it’s not set in stone

Free your soul before the fire consumes you
Ground yourself, before the winds remove you
Raise your head above, before the earth it buries you
Save your breath, before the waters they drown you

I’m told the end is not far away
I’ve seen the change, it’s ours to save
Before the sun has time, has time to fade
We must light the torch, to find our way

I’ve heard the forest screaming
For help the river’s pleading
How could we let it go this far?
Murderers
We have to find a way to turn back the hands
Our time is running out I can see it in the sands

The beacon of hope, shrouded in black
We have to see the dark away, just set the torch alight

Set the torch alight
Set the torch alight

I’m told the end is not far away
I’ve seen the change, it’s ours to save
Before the sun has time, has time to fade
We must light the torch, to find our way


4. WATCHER

I am forever the watcher,
Oath sworn protector,
Foretold your saviour,

I won't abandon you,
I cannot lose you,
I won't throw this hope away,
the hope you once knew,

I pray this sickness never ends.
I will not leave you, to suffer at the hands
Of sin.
If I were silenced,
Your name I would still speak.

There isn't a moment that you will leave my eyes
As you become faint in person
You're stronger in my mind,
So fight the demon inside
Fight the demon inside

Let go, let others take control,
The poison will drain and the possession will lose its hold,

I am forever the watcher,
Oath sworn protector,
Foretold your saviour,
And I will never abandon you
I cannot ever lose you

I pray this sickness never ends.
I will not leave you, to suffer at the hands
Of sin.
If I were silenced,
Your name I would still speak.

I won't abandon you
I cannot lose you
I won't throw this all away
I won't abandon you
I cannot lose you
I won't throw this all away

I pray this sickness never ends.
I will not leave you, to suffer at the hands of sin.
If I were silenced,
Your name I would still speak.


5. OUR GIFT

Take my hand
We are bound
You never have to feel alone
For we are found

Rise up all chosen
This is your moment to shine
‘Cause if you feel how I feel then there’s nothing to fear ‘cause this is your life

I grant you eternity sat at my side
All I ask is for your loyalty until the end of time

You knew you could prey on my heart
You knew you could sell me from the start
Now I know that this could be the end of me
Falling for the same game that you sold to him
I see this for what it is, we need it to believe in
You’ve preyed upon us for the final time

Let go, lose control,
Forget the ones you used to know
We are your family, this is your home now
Don’t fucking forget the mess we found you in
A gift turned a curse
A pact of blood until the end of the earth

You knew you could prey on my heart
You knew you could sell me from the start
Now I know that this could be the end of me
Falling for the same game that you sold to him
I see this for what it is, we need it to believe in
You’ve preyed upon us for the final time

Now I know that this could be the end of me
Falling for the same game that you sold to him
I see this for what it is, we need it to believe in
You’ve preyed upon us for the final time


6. DARKER WATER

I feel a storm is rising
The sound of the beast unleashing
This isn’t how I want the story to play out
There’s something beneath the water, that’s moving
The clarity in my reflection, I’m losing
A serpent beneath the surface
A force that has been unharnessed
I cannot keep it bottled up anymore

I’ve become lost in the sea
Where saints become sinners
And hate needs to breathe
I’ve never felt this before
The darkest of feelings so far from the shore

I’ve been the viper since day one
Spitting venom with a forked tongue
The time has come, to shed the shadows
I, the demon unleashed

There’s something beneath the water, that’s moving
The clarity in my reflection, I’m losing
I see the serpent rising, I feel the rage is gathering
I’m losing the battle between wrong and right

I’ve become lost in the sea
Where saints become sinners
And hate needs to breathe
I’ve never felt this before
The darkest of feelings so far from the shore

I’ve been the viper since day one
Spitting venom with a forked tongue
The time has come, to shed the shadows
I, the demon unleashed

The time has come, to shed the shadows
I, the demon unleashed


7. ANOTHER JOURNEY

We’ve seen the signs, we chose the path
Our fate was bound to stone
I saw a time we when we were free
A glimpse of pure redemption
I believe
That our luck is changing
We believe
Let our minds be our guide

I have seen, the lines of our journey
I have seen, a wealth worth earning
I believe, I believe uncertainty is the best for me

I’m looking up into the sky
Reading in between the lines
The future will come for me
I’m guided by the path that leads me

I’m on the edge, too high to breathe
Yet I see it clearly, within my mind, never deviating
I believe
That our luck is changing
We believe
Let our minds be our guide

Follow me into the sky
My will is stronger now
The path burnt in my eyes
From the divine
Follow me into the sky
My will is stronger now
The path burnt in my eyes
From the divine

I have seen, the lines of our journey
I have seen, a wealth worth earning
I believe, I believe uncertainty is the best for me

I’m looking up into the sky
Reading in between the lines
The future will come for me
I’m guided by the path that leads me

I’m looking up into the sky
Reading in between the lines
Reading these signs is the key

Follow me into the sky
My will is stronger now
The path burnt in my eyes
From the divine
Follow me into the sky
My will is stronger now
The path burnt in my eyes
From the divine
Follow me into the sky
My will is stronger now
The path burnt in my eyes
From the divine


8. UNDER THE SUN

Let them hear us, let it be heard
Our bond will never be broken
No roads abandoned, no bridges burned

So follow us home
Our brothers won’t die alone
The future is ours to make it our own

Another year and the world keeps turning
No money could buy the lessons we’re learning
This family stands strong, to overcome it all
And we will never divide, never divide
Never divide the solid lines
Be proud of the choice of taking this side
Living out our lives

We Are The Brave
We Are The Brave

I feel that this is where we rise
Together looking for the light
It seems so clear to me now that we are, under the sun
I see us moving further on
The path that we first came upon
It seems so clear to me now that we are, under the sun

With our hands on our hearts
And our heads to the sky, heads to the sky
We stand as one, until we die

We Are The Brave
We Are The Brave

We will not abandon
No man left unsaved
Forever as one, nobody forgotten
We are the last of the brave

I feel that this is where we rise
Together looking for the light
It seems so clear to me now that we are, under the sun
I see us moving further on
The path that we first came upon
It seems so clear to me now that we are, under the sun

We seek no glory in vain, we are the last of the brave
We seek no glory in vain, we are the last of the brave


9. YEAR OF HARVEST

We put all our hope in northern stars
I hope the end of the winter isn’t too far
It’s this chemistry that’s forever pulling me
The feeling of wanting more than misery

Our hope is in each other
We must not stray from the path first chosen
As the light draws dim and the frost draws near
We must not fear
For it will clear

This is the path I’ve created
Hoping for the answers
Hoping that it’s not been in vain
Finding a way through the winter
Waiting for the harvest
Waiting to be rid of the cold

Move child
Now is the time
We’ve waited for these roots grow
And waited for the sun to shine
Leave now
Gather all you can
All our life’s work in one moment
Now stick to the plan
Stick to the plan

Year of the harvest
Hope of the lost
Year of the harvest
Hope of the lost

This is the path I’ve created
Hoping for the answers
Hoping that it’s not been in vain
Finding a way through the winter
Waiting for the harvest
Waiting to be rid of the cold

Rid of the cold
It’s starting over and I cannot bear to consume
Trying to figure a way to get through

This is the path I’ve created
Hoping for the answers
Hoping that it’s not been in vain
Finding a way through the winter
Waiting for the harvest
Waiting to be rid of the cold
Rid of the cold


10. GARDEN OF THORNS

Look now, at what you’re becoming
Just an empty shell of the man I used to know
Because you’ve paid the price
You’ve sold your soul and life
And now I hear them coming to drag you back to hell

Wash away the blood
But we still see the sin
Nothing short of hell is what you’re living in, living in
Wash away the blood
But we still see the sin
Nothing short of hell is what you’re living in, living in

A fear of falling through the cracks it guides me
I must stay away, be sure not to stray
A shot at fighting through the hate that fills me
I must stay away, be sure not to stray

What have you become?
Salvation comes to those who look above
I never said that this would be enough
Your sins are far great, you’ve come here too late
This is your fate

To learn you must suffer
To repay debts you’ve stolen
Repenting is now the only way
Or there is no salvation here
Get up off of your knees and learn how to bleed

Wash away the blood
But we still see the sin
Nothing short of hell is what you’re living in, living in
Wash away the blood
But we still see the sin
Nothing short of hell is what you’re living in, living in

A fear of falling through the cracks it guides me
I must stay away, be sure not to stray
A shot at fighting through the hate that fills me
I must stay away, be sure not to stray

What have you become?
Salvation comes to those who look above
I never said that this would be enough
Your sins are far great, you’ve come here too late
What have you become?
You’ve sold the souls of all you know and love
I never said that this would be enough
Your sins are far too great,
You’ve come here too late
This is your fate


11. DIVINE BREATH

Searching for divine breath
This is, our final test

For years you’ve been the forefront of my mind
I have felt relief, ended the curse
So take me away
For the last time
Take me away

We could drift away
For the last time
Take me away


12. OF GLORY

We are alive
We woke again to see the sun rise
When we were falling, falling from grace, did you catch us?
You never did, you never did
When we were falling, falling from grace, did you catch us?
You never did, you never did

We never asked you for your loyalty
But now the tides are changing
It’s all you offer me
To break the chains that have been holding us
We’ve been held down too long to be free

Oppressor
You’re perched so high that you can’t hear us
Oppressor
I see your lies for what they truly are

We’ve remembered how this should be done
We’ve foreseen how life can move on
With the feeling that we can push through, it all
As our shackles fall away, remembering the glory days
We will never stray away, to forget the everlasting pain

This is our moment
To break the hold we’ve always
Known

We’ve remembered how this should be done
We’ve foreseen how life can move on
With the feeling that we can push through, it all
As our shackles fall away, remembering the glory days
We will never stray away, to forget the everlasting pain

Oppressor
You’re perched so high that you can’t hear us
Oppressor
I see your lies for what they truly are

You said you were behind us but failed to see
At the end there’s no time for defeat
Don’t hold me back I feel full of belief
I am alive, we will not die

We Will Not Die

When we were falling, falling from grace, did you catch us?
You never did, you never did
When we were falling, falling from grace, did you catch us?
You never did, you never did


13. LAST OF THE ICE

If you can hear us calling
We’re breaking down the walls that lie between
Then you can see us living
We’re living out the words for all to see
So you believe in me

Let me be the first to break down
The boundaries of what we’ve always known
I’m always telling you that you should just be you
Don’t let them pull you down
If I could guide you like I was guided
I think we could succeed this time
Raise your hands high, reach for the light
Let us show them how to feel alive

For too long they’ve walled themselves away
But now the past is moving to the present

If you can hear us calling
We’re breaking down the walls that lie between
Then you can see us living
We’re living out the words for all to see
So you believe in me

It’s not for a sense of mystery
I’m calling you out as conceited
Raise your hand high, reach for the light
Let us show them how to feel alive

Being human is not a burden
Don’t let them tell you different
We are equal
Being human is not a burden
Don’t let them tell you different
We are equal

If you can hear us calling
We’re breaking down the walls that lie between
Then you can see us living
We’re living out the words for all to see
So you believe in me

Calling
Breaking down the walls that lie between
Then you can see us living
Living out the words for all to see
So you believe in me


14. HAIL THE LOST

All hail the dead
In our hearts and our heads
Press your ear to the wall
Hear them whisper it all
Stories of their bitter end
All hail the dead
In our hearts and our heads
Press your ear to the wall
Hear them whisper it all
Stories of their bitter end

The loved, the lost, they live in us
We must remember their names
Their memory must never die
For it can’t be reclaimed

I will never forget you
But I will never forgive you
All the same
You left me on my knees again

I feel you breathing next to me
As I fall asleep it’s never hard to see
When I close my eyes,
I hear you, I hear you speak
I feel you breathing next to me
As I fall asleep it’s never hard to see
When I close my eyes,
I hear you, I hear you speak

All hail the dead
In our hearts and our heads
Press your ear to the wall
Hear them whisper it all
Stories of their bitter end

I feel you breathing next to me
As I fall asleep it’s never hard to see
When I close my eyes,
I hear you, I hear you speak
I feel you breathing next to me
As I fall asleep it’s never hard to see
When I close my eyes,
I hear you, I hear you speak

In Our Hearts, You Will Forever Be
In Our Hearts, You Will Forever Be
In Our Hearts, You Will Forever Be
In Our Hearts, You Will Forever Be…


15. THE TORCH (ACOUSTIC)

I’m told the end is not far away
I’ve seen the change, it’s ours to save
Before the sun has time, has time to fade
We must light the torch, to find our way

I felt the earth moving today
And I saw a change in the waves
The sky went from blue to black
And all leaves have all been burnt away

I’m told the end is not far away
I’ve seen the change, it’s ours to save
Before the sun has time, has time to fade
We must light the torch, to find our way

I’ve heard the forest screaming
For help the river’s pleading
How did we let it go this far?
Murderers

I’m told the end is not far away
I’ve seen the change, it’s ours to save
Before the sun has time, has time to fade
We must light the torch, to find our way


16. WATCHER V.2

I am forever the watcher,
Oath sworn protector,
Foretold your savior,

I won't abandon you,
I cannot lose you,
I can’t throw this hope away,
The hope you once knew

I pray this sickness never ends.
I will not leave you, to suffer at the hands of sin.
If I were silenced,
Your name, I would still speak it.
