1. INTO THE SHADOWS

(Instrumental)


2. AMONG THE GREY

Oh, it must be so easy to waste away the day
Now that you’re falling under
I can only imagine the truth that you’ve maintained
It’s been so long since you’ve reformed

Once again
You see your shadow only
Who’s gonna save you?

Now, I see your own demonstration of what we all can’t see
It’s your perfect concept
There’s no time left to borrow once your time is through
You’ve forgotten the basics

Still again
You found yourself alone
Who’s gonna save you now?

Follow me to daylight and remain with persistence
Follow me to nonexistent space
To all
Casting over the reach of man
It starts again

You made your own vindication, removing you of blame
You justified murder
I’d say you’ve still got some dignity left inside your soul
But you gave it all away

Once again
You see your shadow only
Who’s gonna save you?

Now, as the world keeps turning, you drift among the grey
I see your shifting figures
Oh it must be so easy to waste away the day
Now that you’re falling under

Still again
You found yourself alone
Who’s gonna save you now?


3. WORLD UNDONE

Conquer
But we captivate the free
Prosper
But we overwhelm our own
Master
But what’s real is left behind

Conquer the whole world

Our existence is defined as a reign of given right
But it’s always failing
I can’t decide on what’s real or what is to believe

A simple promise kept out of our sight
Another fiction advertised as life

All the men control the way they choose to live
The kings betray our will to survive
In the distance I see a change
We control our world

Conquer
But we compromised all we knew
Prosper
But we strayed along the way
Master
But we deprived a common ground

Conquer the whole world

When it’s all said and done,
Will we reach a higher ground?
Will the heathens burn in shame?
Will we ever know?

A simple promise kept out of our sight
Another fiction advertised as life

All the men control the way they choose to live
The kings betray our will to survive
In the distance I see a change
We control our world


4. THE FALL OF MAN

Long ago
From the skies
Man fell down from the life of gods

Left for blame
Left to die

Key to life
Finding hope
Man can’t find his paradise
End of peace
End of innocence

We’re just waiting for the end

End of time
End of shame
End of walking in the dark

Ending war
Ending hate

Key to life
Finding hope
Man can’t find his paradise
End of peace
End of innocence

We’re just waiting for the
End of time
End of shame
Ending war
Ending hate

We are lost
We must find the key to life
We are lost
We must change the way we live
We are lost
We must find the key to life
We are lost

We are fucking lost.


5. A CRY FOR REDEMPTION

We kill for clean water, yet defile the seas
When it’s all over, we forget what we’ve seen

If you hold and you cherish, the ones that you love
We must cry for redemption, to the skies up above

We scream... yet you still won’t believe

When the skies fall down to the ground
Where will we go?
When the seas crush us to our end
What do we know?

We live an illusion, we live in a dream
If it’s power you call for, it is not as it seems

I’m not your preacher, and I’m not your friend
But we need to make changes, so our mother can mend

We scream but you still won’t believe

When the skies fall down to the ground
Where will we go?
When the seas crush us to our end
What do we know?

What do we know?


6. NATURAL UNDERSTANDING

I can see the fear in your eyes
I can feel you break
Terror sweeps through the land of our fathers
Our dominance dissolves

No warning
No sign
We lose control
Hierarchy corroding
We fall apart

One sense of self
One way of life
Why bother understanding this
Form of self-sufficience?
We crumble under pressure
We fall apart

I can hear the thoughts in your head
I can feel you give
Panic hits the precious air quickly
Supremacy refined

Expired democracy
We lost control
Material devotion
We fell apart
Hypocritic tolerance
We lost control
Devouring ignorance
We fell apart


7. CITY OF SAND

Build a city tall, quite invincible
All we need is a king
New technology covers everything
That we once understood

Can we escape from the walls that shade the Sun’s energy?
All of our days disappear as we watch the Earth turn

What if your god doesn’t exist?
How could you fall into line?
What if your science is more than flawed?
Who can you follow by now?

Population falls when the game is fair
An untamed free-for-all
If you follow me
I will follow you all the way till the end

Can we escape from the bars that enslave our integrity?
All of our days disappear as we watch the Earth turn

What if your god doesn’t exist?
How could you fall into line?
What if your science is more than flawed?
Who can you follow by now?

Focus
Travel through an array of light
Darkness
Silence all that oppose the word

Open your eyes and see the world around you
Open your mind to a new discovered power


8. BORN AGAIN BRAINWASH

Lost
Left behind
Suffering for all eternity

Gone
Forgotten
Day of the wicked is upon us

Light
Born again
Shepherds gather the sheep to ascend

Holy
Wise virgins
Fruits of the harvest are first in line

When will he come?
Send away the wrong…

We just survive when there’s time to find the truth.
We overtake. This world can’t bear the pain.
We won’t derive when there’s nothing left to lose.
I won’t give in. You won’t dull my mind.

When will he come?
Send away the wrong…

Temples falling
Clergy sings
Sacred monuments crumble to dust
People slaughtering people
Religion finally takes its toll

Lies
Stretch the truth
Church leaders sell stories to the poor

Rapture
Heed his tongue
Omitting words of Holy Scriptures


09. THE MIRROR REVEALED TWO

You take another life
Subconscious
It’s not part of me
Blood shed another time
The chaos
Your losing control

You break another peace
Nirvana
Can it be reached?
Blood shed another time
The chaos
I’m losing control

Just one more word
Your throat is slit
The silent kill
Just one last breath before you go
When will it end?
Distorting all of which that you don’t see
Take it away
Just one more day I turn my head
Take it away

My own mind
It’s killing me

My own mind
You're killing me

Another look before relief
Open your eyes
Another chance for life and death
Would you believe?
Torturing all of you and all of me
Take it away
Just one more day I turn my head
Take it away

My own mind
It’s killing me

Bloodshot eyes stare back at me
Mirror door
This can’t be me

The walls close in
My mind stays still
Subconscious finally takes control
My eyes are dulled
Florescent light
The mirror reveals two
You take another life


10. AURORA BOREALIS

Light in the sky
Show me the way
Send me a sign
Teach me to save
Overcast shadows this path that I walk
I followed you close, you lead me astray

There’s no going back...

This world can’t last forever
It sure as hell won’t until we
Teach our children to live as one

Light in the sky
Tell me the truth
Bid me your word
Revive my senses
Impending storm swallows us whole
Sustaining Earth and all of the wild

This world can’t last forever
It sure as hell won’t unless we
Teach our children to live as one

You take all of the land
Scourging the air and sea
You brand all you see all you know
Just to make it your own
Well you vanquish our world

Transcending the natural order
You fake what you do not know
To the stars and the sun
Through the universe
You’ll never reach the end

This world it’s not gonna last forever
From the depths below
To the mountains high
We just keep conquering everything
We must teach our children to live together as one
