Lyrics

1. GATECRUSHER

Division's assembled
Blood burning hot again
We'll break through the barriers
That we have set

Dreams of brighter future,
The challenge lies ahead
Ambitions not forgotten
To walk through the gates of fame

Sacred chimes
In the night
Hear the cries?
Now it's time!

Rising from the flames
We batter through the Gates
Metal all the way
This time we cannot fail

Just say when, we're ready!
To stand our ground and yours
The Grand Plan will unfold
To all, to each his own

And when it all is over
When all is said and done
You may think it's nothing
But we know we've achieved it all


2. DISTANT, SILENT, GONE

Shadowed and foreshortened
The old man turns his head
From his solitary deep trench
Where no other men would tread
A dungeon of technology
Steep walls of jagged stone
His post must be so lonely
But he chose it to be so

A Forbidden sight, a depressed mind,
A Barbarous design, the limits of his life

Am I to blame?
Should I feel ashamed?
The guilt of the ones left to dwell on this earth

Just a mind game?
Or childish seek of fame?
The doubt of the ones left to dwell on this earth

The future is here
his life ends in sunset of crimson and gold
The way is not clear
the paths of our lives haven’t been carved in stone

Exact and painstaking
His war of life is soon fought
The red light starts to burn
As the nameless horror spoke
The entrance to the tunnel
Just seems to grow in size
The man is caught in darkness
Mouth of hell gapes open wide


3. I HEAR VOICES

I'm lying on this coach again
Another session to mend my mind
We've been digging for too long and deep
The gates are open, my demons are free

When I call...
From the depths echoes the answer

I hear voices
Tempting me with their dark thoughts

I hear voices
They are the sound of suppressed me

Rorschach test revealed the creature
It's weird to know I'm not alone
Constant blackouts and awakenings
In the mirror the devil's eyes

When I call...
From the depths echoes the answer

I hear voices
Tempting me with their dark thoughts

I hear voices
They are the sound of suppressed me.
