1. THE END OF FEAR

Here we lie in wait for the one
Who can scale the stars and
Create a world where all wars have been won
And still we put our faith in the one
Who can carry us into a world across the sun

Paralyzed
We are lost and haunted by our memories
Dreaming on
And never reaching for our lives

End the fear
For the wicked whispers, endless lies in your ear
The sound is an echo of a heart imprisoned there

An apparition from a distant past
Drains blood from a long forgotten wound
Filling the void in the absence of your will

Paralyzed
We are lost and haunted by our memories
Dreaming on
And never reaching for our lives

End the fear
For the wicked whispers, endless lies in your ear
The sound is an echo of a heart imprisoned there

An apparition from a distant past
Drains blood from a long forgotten wound
Filling the void in the absence of your will

Let a new voice thunder from within
Radiating through your skin
The past is gone, the future rests upon your hands
And you will know, you will see, you will hear, you will be
Dressed in the colors of your dreams
You will conquer all of this

End the fear
For the wicked whispers, endless lies in your ear
The sound is an echo of a heart imprisoned there

Let go
Let go and show no fear


2. LIVE AND DIE TODAY

We can't submit our lives
Confined in frames that will fade in time
Within the hallways of our minds
I know every second bears my name
At the crossroads of a shifting fate
And change is my destiny

Painting a picture of the world
And maybe it's all an illusion
But through it all I know that I'm alive

Stay with me
To see the end of the world
There is no other way
But to live and die today
Stay with me
For a night bittersweet
And be free of delusion

Apathy is your death
You're so content to remain enslaved
In a prison cell too safe to leave
In shackles far too comfortable to break
We can't submit our lives to indifference and fading time
This is not what it should be

Leave your impression on the world
(There's no other way, just no other way)
Cause even if it's an illusion
(May my eyes betray, but I'm alive today)
This beating heart of mine is not a lie

Stay with me
To see the end of the world
There is no other way
But to live and die today
Stay with me
For a night bittersweet
And be free of delusion

Leaves fall so gracefully at the break of dawn

We are awake for this moment in time
How could it last forever?
Life is a frail and fleeting sigh
And though I know the shadow will fall on all of us
I still feel you here
This is what is real
A divinity in you

Stay with me
To see the end of the world
There is no other way
But to live and die today
Stay with me
For a night bittersweet
And be free of delusion


3. THE RULER OF ASHES

You know I recognize
That trembling in your voice when you talk to me
Oh babe you gotta realize
That there's no secret you can keep from me
You think I cannot feel the waves that rage within
But I,
I'd rather push you down and let you drown
Than let you drift away

Just how high do you value my devotion?
Just how far do you think you'll get without my protection?
Just how much do you expect me to take?
Just how many of your pretty bones must I break?

I wanna see what your eyes see
I wanna bind your blood to me
I wanna be the air you breathe
(Bind your blood to me)
And I will burn it all down
All just to rule the ash on the ground
Feeding the flames until it's dark
And all we have is gone

Bow before the ruler of ashes

Don't you know I recognize
Every one of your sweet little lies
Don't try to hide from me
Don't you see that there's no secret you can keep from me?
I'd rather let you drown
Than let you drift away
You think I cannot feel the waves that rage within
I'd rather push you down and let you drown
Than let you get away

Won't let you get away
Won't let you get away
Won't let you get away
You will never leave me

I wanna see what your eyes see
I wanna bind your blood to me
I wanna be the air you breathe
(Bind your blood to me)
And I will burn it all down
All just to rule the ash on the ground
Feeding the flames until it's dark
And all we have is gone
Forever gone
