1. LOOK TO THE GROUND

(Instrumental)


2. FLIES

Why must I feel for another one
So insignificant to this world
It’s so important but not at all
There will still be hell to pay

For the truth is that ignorance brings bliss
Watching the flies drawing closer to the stench
Killed the mother the father and the son
On the news they cry out with a morbid description

It’s so important but not at all
There will still be hell to pay
For the truth is that ignorance brings bliss
Watching the flies drawing closer to the stench

I feel so numb, empty inside
I feel so numb, empty inside
From the shadows we lie
I must not feel insignificant
Lost in the herd
I cannot feel I do not feel insignificant
Dead to the world

Flies
I’ll show you all the absence inside of me
Flies
I’ll show you all the absence inside of you


3. WHAT ONCE WAS YOURS

Forgotten sympathies blocking out the glare of the sun
Shadows
Casting out shadows over all I wish to own
Must have it all

We’re not so defined in this desolate path
Shadows
I know who I am in this aftermath
Must have it all

I’ll take whatever I find
In these desperate times it’s the price you pay
Oh what once was yours now is mine
Those who take will thrive this day

All laid before me
I repossess
All gilt and silver
I must have it

All to hold all to loathe
All guilt and silver
I must have it all
I’ll take whatever I find

In these desperate times it’s the price you pay
Oh what once was yours now is mine
Those who take will thrive this day
I’ll take everything you own

What once was yours now is mine
You’ll be united in poverty
Stripped of all constrained by a lack of will
Must have it all


4. FOUND WANTING

(Instrumental)


5. BRING FORTH PURITY

What of the angels coming down
Wield their blades dragging the ground
Ahh the sound
Fueled by the fire of demise

Cutting down all of those who reply with the wrath of a mortal man
Hey quiver like a coward
Waiting for your time to come and end it
Hey through all the violence

Only brings silence, peace, and tranquility
Wallow in the self-pity to which it knows no bounds
Purity
Suffering the consequence of living for themselves
Purity
In time you’ll die
In time you’ll die


6. THE SOUND OF BEING TAKEN AWAY

Black heart inside
In your dreams you can’t even hide
Come with me now don’t be afraid
The sound of being taken away

Taken away
Deep in thought I can taste your sweat
So pungent and vivid like you’re there
Seductive Overwhelming

A dream that will never end
At first sight I’ve succumb to this

The thought of your innocence
Must have you as mine alone
And for no one to know
All in time you’ll realize

The details of your demise
Come with me now don’t be afraid
The sound of being taken away
Taken away

Deep in thought I can taste your sweat
So pungent and vivid like you’re there
Seductive Overwhelming
A dream that will never end

Suffocating from the weight of their eyes
Someone is watching me
Confusion to be derealized
Susceptible to all the lies

Unknown stairs and endless nightmares
Smothering
Smothering


7. LIGHT FADES IN SOLITUDE

You lay all distraught and displaced
The decisions you made
Left you empty
You held your head so high only to fall

Tried to stand on your own
Reaped the penance you’ve sown
Sheltered no more remorseful thoughts of lost mementos
And the waves they will roll to sea to reside

And reveal a tomb for you
Damnation
And the current will swallow you whole
And you may float no more no more no more

You lay all distraught and displaced
Left empty from decisions made
From the highest pedestal
Only to fall

Notion to run away
Far away from this
Crept through life holding on
Cling to the curtain

Light fades in solitude
Run away from this
Held on to nothingness
And nothing is there

Waves will roll to sea to reside

And reveal a tomb for you
Damnation
And the current will swallow you whole
And you may float no more no more no more

Why you wanna be so demoralized
As your resolve withers away
Got there on your own
Now you’re all alone

All alone


8. ETERNAL AND IN CHAINS

Fall in the fountain’s overflowing
Beckoning to be found
Fall out to search for nothing
The pillar the seeker is rattled with doubt

To bare the shackles with the knowledge that’s swallowed
Eternal and in chains
To stay the same when change has made you so hollow
Eternal and in chains

Ruthless pursuit treading face down nonstop to no avail
Just another step just one more stone
To turn and bridge to burn
Calculations from the black night sky
It can’t, it won’t, it couldn’t be very far
Claiming destiny

To bare the shackles with the knowledge that’s swallowed
Eternal and in chains
To stay the same when change has made you so hollow
Eternal and in chains


9. OCEAN OF SCORPIONS

(Instrumental)


10. SHE-CREATURE

Hell bent on destruction without a cause
Lies within her lullabies and waiting to captivate fortune’s fool
Under her spell they shattered and fell
And came to believe in a wickedness

Infecting internally
Star crossed her eyes will deceive
The victims seduced by her wiles defiled
Piercing into flesh and bone

Exposing what’s buried below
The victims seduced by her wiles defiled
And the faces will turn and look to the ground
As they shake their heads oh

Subliminal so criminal
And the tears will erode to a river
And lead to the bleakest domain
And the good will assemble to purge
And make spectacle of the fool
Subliminal so criminal
And converge on the beast to abolish the essence of misery

Your soul
Concede
To her
Held now in doubt

Left to wonder what’s becoming
Your fate apostate
When light fades it’s over
And the faces will turn and look to the ground
As they shake their heads oh

Subliminal so criminal
And the tears will erode to a river
And lead to the bleakest domain
And the good will assemble to purge
And make spectacle of the fool
Subliminal so criminal
And converge on the beast to abolish the essence of misery

Your soul
Concede
To her
Your mind is forfeit

Perspective warped by her tongue

Night divine
Night so divine
Night divine she’ll end our lives
This night
Night so divine she’ll bleed us dry
Divine
Flesh and bone


11. GLORY
