1. NEW ALCHEMY

The air ignites
With a stroke of my hand
Embers rain upon your home
Watch as i plant the seed
And take root

Deep into the ground
Feel, the earth shakes
I spread

Erupt from shifting sands
Erupt into child of man

I spread like flame
Setting your hearts ablaze
I take hold

And bloom into frail lungs
Draw ragged breaths
I am inside these week-old weary eyes


2. FOF OF APATHY

Sew your eyes shut
And fill your mind with trivial thoughts

How much do we really need?
At this very moment

A life is brought to end
Drowning in dust and fading away
But fear not!

Your wallet shall not go hungry
A cold hand

Grips the terrors of this world
That of detachment


3. MONARCH

(Instrumental)


4. BREATH OF THE ALMIGHTY

There is no silence in this place
My my is slowly being crushed

By a thousand invisible waves
I long for stillness

Hollow white-amber light
Leaking into my bones
Turns them to dust

Retreat from the harrowing sound
Take solace

And collapse under the weight
Of the faintest whisper
Cut deep

Watch the signal rise
Collapse under the weight of silence


5. ASCEND

(Instrumental)


6. MYTHOS

Here I stand
A preacher with no sermon
Searching for the fading line
Between idiocy and grandeur

Hear these empty words
Flow through you

Let it ring in your ears
Let it consume
Why waste my breath

Prolonging the myth

Of

Hope


7. AS I STARED INTO THE SKY

(Instrumental)


8. APEX

Drift

Carried on the thick dead air
To the hollowed place

Where the lights swallow the sky
Empty vessels roam splintered grounds

Driven by a distant pulse
Blood fed through jagged veins

Driven by echoes
And here i stand

The last heirs of deception
Have rusted away

And here i stand
Monolith of indulgence

A beacon of failure
