Lyrics


1. TIDAL

To create, one must first destroy


2. CONDITION BLACK

Time has lost control of me
Damned if I do or I don't
Lonely sailor, angry sea
Named by the will and the won't

Take a chance, spin the wheel, see what fortune may bring
Already I've plotted this lawless course; already I've lost everything

This is the last time
I'm looking back
My heart of darkness
Condition black

This is the last time
No going back
Bring on the raging storm
Condition black

Waves and braids, a crown of hair
I've deserted the islands of fraud
The midnight thunder rules the air
The surging pulse of a God

Love, hate, promises, those words have ravaged my soul
Casting away to the end of the world, before I'm too cold and too old

This is the last time
I'm looking back
My heart of darkness
Condition black

This is the last time
No going back
There's truth in those depths
Condition black

A thousand leagues of bloody tears
A thousand wretched lies
Brackish spirit, face the fears
With steely, salty eyes

This is the last time
I'm looking back
My heart of darkness
Condition black

This is the last time
No going back
Who dares win the howling winds
Condition black


3. TOO MANY VOICES

My heart
Is facing an icestorm
My life
Is crashing down and I can't breathe
My mind
Is a raging thunderstorm
And you say
That I can't be what I need to be

All lies surround me now
I'm breaking through, I'm gonna show you how

Too many voices screaming on the wind
I'll sail away, you'll never catch me, catch me
Too many faces and it never ends
I'm going mad but you won't help me
Lose myself again

For truth
I gave my life to hold
For love
I cut myself down to the bone
I know
Sometimes I don't know where to go
Be gone
Leave me be, my path, my own

All words surround me now
I'm drowning here but I'll drown all you out

Too many voices screaming on the wind
I'll sail away, you'll never catch me, catch me
Too many faces and it never ends
I'm going mad but you won't help me
Lose myself again

You tell creation how much you're giving
You were born, but you're barely living
You stole the right, now you're on a mission
And I will never ever listen

Control
Virus inside the lifeline
Divide
Conquer on, a million to one
Greedy hands
Plunder every peace of mind
Your hate
Exposed, obsessed, and overdone

All gods of fear and doubt
I'm preaching loud, I shall cast you out

Too many voices screaming on the wind
I'll sail away, you'll never catch me, catch me
Too many faces and it never ends
I'm going mad but you won't help me
Lose myself again

Dictator
Directing the simpleton world
Too many voices
Peacemaker
Complacency replacing pearls
Too many voices


4. NO WORLD ORDER

Stare straight into the face of hate
They’ll slay the monsters they create
Nobody free, nobody brave
All of your trust has been in vain

See how the blind now lead the blind
These apathetic wicked times
The law will plant you in your grave
The killing fields still need more slaves

You sell your body, mind, and soul
Sell-out religion, sell it all
You give them only what they want
Power and greed, you're on the run

We're the last ones in line
To put a number on our minds

No! World! Order!
No! World! Order!
No! World! Order!
No! World! Order!

Revolution now

Illuminated antiChrist
The price is higher than your life
The false are generals, kings, and priests
Holocaust bred by the beast

Under the flag of blood and steel
Enforcers forcing you to kneel
You don't, you won't, you can't say no
To mass media mind control

We're the last ones in line
We're leaving all behind

No! World! Order!
No! World! Order!
No! World! Order!
No! World! Order!

Revolution now

“Trust us!” demand the terrorists
Try on these chains, see if they fit
Tradition of elected lies
Horrors before consenting eyes

So question everything they say
When there's no will, there is a way
To stop the truth from being heard
And to assimilate the world

No! World! Order!
No! World! Order!
No! World! Order!
No! World! Order!

Revolution now


5. CAGES WE CREATE

Your world was ashen cold, I saw you there
Weeping with broken wings in frozen wind
I wrapped my arms around in achingness, despair
And all things changed to new, began again

That’s how this dream would end if the dream was real
And only mournful echoes still remain
I’ve felt so much that I’ve nothing left to feel
The barren I inside has carved a god of pain

I don’t want to see you in this place
I don’t want to leave you in this state
I don’t know what to do
Any more than I used to
We fell the castles we create

Don’t turn around, don’t let it end this way
Wounds from words need words to heal
I can’t lose what I never had, why don’t you stay
We’re only as sick as the things we conceal

I don’t want to see you in this place
I don’t want to leave you in this state
We don’t know what to do
Any more than we used to
Bound by the bonds we create

Just as harsh as I ever was
No compromise for anyone
I feel alive but far too late
Caught in some cage I create

Maybe in some other life we’ve found a safe escape
From these cages we create

…I’ll throw away my tears
And harden back my heart
Withdraw, wear out, restart


6. STARSEEKER (THE MYSTERY OF GOD)

The universe, forever
Counting down to never
Philosophies, the center of my mind

Ask the Earths what they know
Blowing where the wind blows
Solid ground, impossible to find

All I want to know is what the truth is
I believe the truth is what You are

Blocking out the starshine
Living through the worldmind
Hating all we're scared to understand

Tearing through the old ways
Summoning vehement waves
New horizons rise up through my hands

All I want to know is what the truth is
I believe the truth is what You are

Om sat chit, om sat chit

When there's nothing to say
Some might say I've said it all
When there's nothing to feel
But wonder why we're here at all

And when the old thoughts hinder us, we'll carve them off
Divinity, infinity - forge us of

All I want to know is what the truth is
I believe the truth is who You are


7. THE FIRMAMENT

Om Namah Shivaya


8. AS ABOVE, SO BELOW (THOSE WHO FROM HEAVEN TO EARTH CAME)

All eyes look to the sky
Search for a time long gone by
Whispers of secrets and strangeness pervading the air
Gazing deep into the ancient, your shadow is there

I’ve walked a life through the dark
The haunted, condemned, and the marked
I’ll follow the lights to the top of the world and the wall
Glaring with fists to the heavens, now answer my call

As you are, so I am

Uriel
Lifeblood of mystery
A thundering symphony
The light that cannot bend

Uriel
What said could never be
The power within my dreams
Awaken this sleeper again

Throne of celestial fire
Born to seek planes ever higher
Your wings and your wheels burn the path that the weak fear to find
Nailed down to the cross of changes, this wisdom is mine

As above, so below

Uriel
Lifeblood of mystery
A thundering symphony
The light that cannot bend

Uriel
What said could never be
The power within my dreams
Awaken this sleeper again

Creation’s starry rage
Life from another age
Up mystic stairs I climb
To sweep the dust of time

Uriel
Lifeblood of mystery
A thundering symphony
The light that cannot bend

Uriel
What said could never be
The power within my dreams
Awaken this sleeper again

As within, so without


9. THE DANCE OF BLISS

(Instrumental)


10. THE MORBID ARCHITECT (THE PRISON OF VEILS)

Floods
Of bloody flesh
And gore
The physical
Holds the seeds of all damnation

When I parted the clouds
I met the ceiling of the air
When the world broke away
I heard a howling

Mason
Of trappings old
You see
Your hand alone
Your masterpiece: a crypt of sinning

When I ascend into dreams
I travel without moving
In empyreal realms
You hold no power

Invincible lord of sights
Impaled on the spear of Christ
Extinguish the flame of time
We die

Oh, ancient bastard
Your work has been defiled
We’ve razed this maze of matter
My heart is full of bile

This yoke is weighty
My shoulders break from labour
Long is the rope
You've woven for my collar

Slay reality
Slay existence
Slay the Architect
Slay the so-called gods

For you and this world inspire only death in me


11. YOUR HAND IN MINE

Reach out to me
I reach out to you
Know this soul
See us through

In your eyes
I'm worlds away
To embrace
Forever stay

Within your hair
I'll shelter myself
Within my arms
There's nothing else

We dance in shadows
And dream through the days
I'll sing you a song
But I've so much to say

I've flown through fallen skies to hold your hand in mine
I've come through waves on oceans of time

I've ran through weary days to feel your lips to mine
I've touched the moon and sun
From this skyline

If there is love
I've found it here
One precious moment
To disappear

I've found in every star a mystery of everything
To be where I should stand I'll stand by anything

I've flown through fallen skies to hold your hand in mine
I've come through waves on oceans of time

I've ran through weary days to feel your lips to mine
I've touched the moon and sun
From this skyline

You change my heart
You spell my eyes
You show me God
Your hand in mine


12. VENDETTA

Steel
Who’s behind the mask
The time has come to feel
In the streets

Evil in their minds
Blinded eyes will see
The lodge will come to find
Vengeance to god, and justice to us

Fall down those signs, in freedom we trust
Vendetta, the symbol
Rebellion, life has come to this, now
The power of the leaf

Calls upon the youth
Hearts are beating free
To the soothe of truth
Allegiance to no man

Allegiance to no flag
Raised up by bloody hands
Wherе we stand
Glory to god, new nation to us

Fall down those signs, in wisdom wе trust
Vendetta, the symbol
Rebellion, life has come to this, now
You are just alone

Though you can make a change
Faith within the work
In grace you will remain
A mission may have won

A well
You are shown the way
Of no one will
Vengeance to god, and justice to us

Fall down those signs, in freedom we trust
Vendetta, the symbol
Rebellion, life has come to this
Vendetta, the symbol of

Rebellion, life is meant for this, now
