The Rift

I feel your silent screams
Nothing’s what it seems
You’re writhing in these lies
They paralyze my tongue
Mouth open I try so hard to break through
You can’t drown me out
You self-destruct in all your self-distrust
You come undone
Will you end up just as I
Will you lie there shattered
Writhing in this filth
This curse is taking you alive
To the depths of your heart
I dive and find
Thought that I might be the one
To save your neck
But now I'm finding out that
You've run out of breath
How can I find my way back out
To help the next in line
You pulled me in, they're closing in
I'm running out of time
Go strike the match
Far too gone, let it burn, burn
Light it up, fan the flame
Let it burn until there's
Nothing, nothing
There is a way to newly begin
To find the strength within
The fire won't mark the end
Come with me my friend
Will you end up just as I
Will you lie there shattered
Writhing in this filth
This curse is taking you alive
To the depths of your heart
I dive and find

Distant Shores

Quivering like a blade of grass
At the edge of a long beaten path
Leaving behind the fires of war
Can't help but gaze beyond the shore
Gales are howling
Waves are calling
Torch is burning
As I hoist my battered sail
Now that the rain begins to fall
Compounding the weight of it all
The black and the beauty dissolve
Soul is longing for the wind
Serve its call until my end
Rain over me
Can’t escape the thundering beast
Feel a calling to the grave
Weary planks keep me from the deep
Shivering hands, wielding command
Blackened skies don’t sympathize
Crippling wind, journey begin
Flashes of light disobey night
Now that the rain begins to fall
Compounding the weight of it all
The black and the beauty dissolve
Soul is longing for the wind
Serve its call until my end
Storm is rising
Memories haunting
Ocean’s churning
As I surrender to its will

I can’t escape
This memory
Why can't anyone
Uncover the darkness I see
See it break a man
Bring him to his knees
Join in anytime
See what's killing me
Come down with me again
I'll rattle your fears
Hold fast to the ground
Can't escape sound
Calamity rings
The end is in tow
I'm not letting go
Your death won't be mine
It can't be now
Right here on the ground
Rather than me
Why'd they take you
I feel the blame
From this tragedy
Fearful that this anger
Might not stay inside of me
That it might not let me go
Then you'll really see
Just how deep it goes
Come down with me again
I'll rattle your fears
Hold fast to the ground
Can't escape sound
Calamity rings
The end is in tow
I'm not letting go
Your death won't be mine
It can't be now
Right here on the ground
Rather than me
Why'd they take you
Hold fast to the ground
Can't escape sound
Calamity rings
The end is in tow
I'm not letting go
Your death won't be mine
Hold fast to the ground
Can't escape sound
Calamity rings
The end is in tow
I'm not letting go
Your death won't be mine
It can't be now
Right here on the ground
Rather than me
Why'd they take you
Why’d they take you

Nothing wrong with me
Don't need to be set free
I know I'm not the only one
With them to comfort me
In a way that you can't see
But they don't seem to understand
This isn’t part of my plan
I can’t see them
No not even now
Light after sound
Descend into darkness
Seeking the promise
Of life unbound
Moon on the rise
Dispersing their disguise
Light unveils their tortured form
Veins running cold
They beckon with a grin
And so the tension begins
Can you see the beings there
The way they stare and
They’re coming out again
I’m coming out of my skin
I can’t remember
Where shadows grow dim
And daylight begins
Escaping eludes me
Fear that I’m losing
But they will not win
Evening of fright
Chase through the night
Labyrinth of terror
Trial and error
You’re right, I’m wrong, I’m lost
I can’t afford the cost
Of righting all that’s wrong
Just get me out of here
Don’t make me stay in despair
You’re all I need
I can’t surrender
I will not bow
Not to your crown
See madness surround me
Long to destroy me
Silence resound
Align myself to thee
Another I can’t see
Again go in blind
But it’s different this time
Please light my way
There’s nothing I can say
To justify the lies
I’ve been telling myself
I cannot begin
To imagine my end
If I remained bound
See sunrise before me
Night does not own me
I have been found

Deliverance
03:57

|
Agents of shadow rise to kill
This bleak a scene can never fill
My aching heart longs for more than just a shell
Wandering aimless inside this hell
The righteous settles on the ground as one
Come to purify the land, immortal man
The dead will cry, they are driven from his hand
To form a great divide
Cower in darkness, hiding within
While wretched wounds do them in
What they did not expect is that I’d been set free
From the binding that haunted me
The righteous settles on the ground as one
Come to purify the land, immortal man
The dead will cry, they are driven from his hand
To form a great divide
The righteous settles on the ground as one
Come to purify the land, immortal man
The dead will cry, they are driven from his hand
To form a great divide

Absolution

Lost in a warzone
Whereabouts unknown
Will they remember who I am
And recognize the light that brings me home
Gave a life I had not known
The voyage is over
The air becomes colder
I realize the war will be lifelong
And now they’re here to feed upon your shame
And keep you locked in their domain
Feast of lies
Bloodshot eyes
I see your skin begin to crawl
As you muster your resolve
Now that you’ve seen the truth
Let it in to fight for you
As we surrender one and all
See your face
Long for grace
Stand and pray
Darkness fades
Side by side
Shoulder to shoulder
Teach them the day is thine
Shield to shield
Brother to brother
As our fates align
I see your skin begin to crawl
As you muster your resolve
Now that you’ve seen the truth
Let it in to fight for you
As we surrender one and all
