1. THE GATES OF THE FLAMES

(Instrumental)


2. SCARS ARE PERFECTION

It's time to die for the sins that we've carried this far
In motion our bodies will soon meet the floor
It will soon pull us under - reaping through our flesh

We lead the young through the trails of the grim, they fall, as they crawl
Collecting our sins of what we've become
We are free to unearth all our parts but these scars are perfection under the thorns

Everyone suffers our eyes on the dead
Looking for reasons to sever the thread

Your suicide is relentless, laying there collapsed by the gates of the flames, you'll never stay above


3. DISMEMBERED EMBRACE

They've thrown us to our knees, our knees

I've seen the headless give praise...and they've all been abandoned
(For)/'cause the dead will rise, but not to be saviors

The skin's been ripped from my chest force this knife to fit
Carry me on your wings the clouds have been covered in flames falling on the ones that look to the sun

We'll find another way to destroy ourselves, only then will we do the same over and over again
Skin so thin its all been ripped from my chest hold my heart in place to force this knife to fit


4. HOLLOWED EYES

I walk on glass that surrounds my intentions of endless suffering the glass looks tempting from where I stand
I cant see your breath, your hearts not beating, but your limbs are twitching
From the ground your hands reach to the sky
I'll follow your corpse to the grave
Now I'll bleed you all dry to cover myself with crimson shades
Your vacant eyes will make their way through the shadows of your grave
Behind all this carnage and behind all this torture
Your vacant eyes will make their way through the shadows of your grave


5. REINVENTING THE GHOST

Thrown away into this pit of lies my arms are serpents manifesting themselves around me
I can feel their poison spilling inside of me
The deeper I breathe, the stronger their grip becomes around me

As the blood thickens it will set frozen inside my carcass
My pulse ceases to be and my body runs cold
The deeper I breathe the stronger their grip becomes around me and the lights cover in darkness
You'll find your way I'll hold your hand of your ghost until you've found your way to the sun

The sulfurous air mixed with your ashes it sets us ablaze
From the ashes your ghost will rise clipped of its wings you surely wont fly

I see the light bleeding from the sky the spears rain down piercing all the lives
Your ghost is the end


6. SEVENTH STORY ORCHESTRA

They came crashing down to the ground that once stood below them with broken glass as it rains down on their face the screams give pursuit to the sounds of them fading into the ground
I'll cut the lines too deep to be healed they'll all see my sadness
Whoever believed in this choice to be free now they're truly forsaken
Theres no more hope for you now you're nothing but a stain on the pavement calling for attention
You can't fall asleep next to a rope tied roughly around your neck to harness your fall
I'll dispose of your body six feet below covered in gas so no one will dig you out


7. CARNAL SHADES OF DARKNESS

Staring into the darkness the walls bleed in scarlet shades over cadavers with severed remnants calling for the corpse to bind their soul with meaning
Now lacerate the wrists from my neck to replace my teeth with lead
Restore my lungs with wires building up on scars and scabs never to feel the embrace of your arms
Their eyes shine like shards of glass fixed on an open noose ready to sever the neck from the rest
Don't look back the bloods been shed on the grounds where the loved ones shed their tears to know a reason why
I'm so helpless without you in my life
Back right beside me I wish she was here holding my hands to keep me from ripping each inch of flesh from my bones


8. THE PROSPECT OF MALICE

Casting stones into hell's direction never knowing the outcome
Heading in our way severing our senses
Holding our insides in the palms of our hands
Open wounds seem to never cease bleeding
Cover me with lacerations until I lose sight of the amount that engulf me
Into the grave we never look back forever ingrained in the end
Rise above all of the dreadful
Rise above all of the insane


9. FORGED FROM REVULSION

Suffering from your coarsen touch it seems eternal
Never ending in a smile just a placid stare of dementia
Now this just goes to show how wretched and cold you are
No one would care that you're gone
I'll close your casket
Black out the eyes so no one will see your true face
Its cursed and stale just an empty shell of hope
And your reflection appears empty just like your heart as it continues to pump nothing but dust
Now this just goes to show how wretched and cold you are...
Hammer the nails to splinter the bones to force the blood to flow
You are my final burden now nothing stands in my way
It ends here tonight


10. OUR LIFELESS DESIGN

Burn the whites of our eyes
To keep us from seeing the truth
Bury this dagger beside my spine to show me the way to live eternally in your eyes
Life an endless guilt forever in the debt of another and death is judgment Tearing down our walls as thin as our skin
The knife sees fit to carry us all to our graves even as the last breath flows through our lungs
So these lungs will collapse screaming the thoughts of this martyr as the words I bare will take me straight to my grave
Our visions will never be silenced
Now hemorrhaging from inside us is decay feeding on our lifeless design
Force fed beyond belief my eyes swell inside and burst where we all can see the thoughts of our existence
Now your eyes they're gone forever as your guidance will carry us all through the dark
Hemorrhaging while all the blood drips from our veins
