Aberration
04:20
|
|||
Drowning in the swamp of my own self-rejection
Hiding in the corner from my own reflection
I'm gasping for air
In this abstract construction
I'd swear I tried
But couldn't change a fraction
I break the mirrors with my fist
Where's the lesson I have missed
The point of no return
The doom without grace
There I plunge with chain and ball
Never to resurface
You ask me who I am but I lack any kind words
The image I could draw is an obscure freak of sorts
Put your face on my skin
Don't you fear what's within
A loathsome aberration
That can pull you in
Just stare through my eyes
There's a mind to despise
To infect your brain
Drag you into
The insane
I need a breath of clear air
Not this ash-ridden fume
Ash-ridden fume
Just a ray of light to break
A way through this doom
A way through this doom
A way through this doom
You ask me who I am but I lack any kind words
The image I could draw is an obscure freak of sorts

Insanity
03:30
|
|||
Every waking hour of my life
Every waking hour of my life
I have put on a twisted face
I have put on a twisted face
Not by choice a mask to enslave
Not by choice a mask to enslave
Invisible chains a forced disguise
Overshadows my true personality
A false pretense so it seems
That the innocents
That the innocents are guilty
The world is trying to enslave me
Chained me to its machinery
I dismissed my reality
Addicted to conformity
Mind dissolved to insanity
I consume the world
A sedative effect follows
I consume the world
A sedative effect follows
I consume the world
A sedative effect follows
I consume the world
A sedative effect follows
I open my mouth, want to devour
All
Gram by gram and ton by ton
Without a thought I inhale what's on
Invisible chains a forced disguise
Overshadows my true personality
A false pretense so it seems
That the innocents
That the innocents are guilty
I assume
Defeat

Particles
04:11
|

Scorched land behind me tells a story of waste
Particles of ash in the air resemble myself
Scorched land behind me tells a story of waste
Particles of ash in the air resemble myself
Like a leach the outer world suck onto me
Bit by bit it steals away my energy
Pressure tramples my personal tranquillity
Claims a twitch here and there, amounts to infinity
Time isn't a cure, it's a curse, always in short supply
Time doesn't heal, there's no retry
It bleeds you out
It bleeds you out
It bleeds you out
It bleeds you out
With every second I let them have
A part of myself dissolves in space
With every moment I'm forced to give away
I let go of another particle of me
One step closer to lose my identity
I've trapped myself in a maze
Schizophrenic between two images
What I'm made and what I would become
It's impossible to disambiguate
Which one's the sculpture chiseled out of me
My particles keep disappearing
An inner fight is raging inside me
Screams bursting out
They watch as I make the choice
As I cut off the head of one of the beasts
Time isn't a cure, it's a curse, always in short supply
Time doesn't heal, there's no retry
It bleeds you out
It bleeds you out
It bleeds you out
It bleeds you out
Scorched land behind me tells a story of waste
Particles of ash in the air resemble myself
Scorched land behind me tells a story of waste
Particles of ash in the air resemble myself

Self Suppressed
06:06
|

A shadow occupies my very core
A shadow I feel with my own doubts
I never know the moment it knocks down the door
A shadow occupies my very core
A shadow I feel with my own doubts
I never know the moment it knocks down the door
It appears from nowhere, you can't understand
How in a second I am completely devoured by the dark
It appears from nowhere, buries my true self
I am obscured by this wraith
A thief of existence
The moment I stare into this blackness
Is the one cordial fear
Fills me up with despair
I'm numb paralyzed
I still linger here
It appears from nowhere, you can't understand
How in a second I am completely devoured by the dark
It appears from nowhere, buries my true self
I am obscured by this wraith
A thief of existence
Endurance is key when you're looking into me
Through my clouded eyes that cannot see
Trapped in the moment of quandary
Contemplating whether to fight to be
Or accept the defeat to find my peace
I'm pulled below the surface of this dimension
Into a stalemate where odds are too high
A head-splitting tension slows time to a crawl
I need to wait out this torture of mind
Endurance is key when you're looking into me
Through my clouded eyes that cannot see
Trapped in the moment of quandary
Contemplating whether to fight to be
Or accept the defeat to find my peace
It appears from nowhere, you can't understand
How in a second I am completely devoured by the dark
It appears from nowhere, buries my true self
I am obscured by this wraith
A thief of existence
I am obscured by this wraith
A thief of existence

Delusion
03:50
|
|||
My naked being is torn to pieces
Eviscerated by unseen blades
As I crawl through my own conscience
I see shadows and silhouettes
Breaking the mirrors is my own fear
All the shadows are drawing near
Paranoia
I keep telling to myself
Enfolds what haunts me
My existence
It is all in my head
It is all in my head
It is all in my head
There's no escape
Here it comes again
From the freezing embrace
It just wants me dead
My limbs are severed, my spirit defeated
My paranoia smiles his final grin
With a final blow my life's deleted
The time has come to turn me in
My naked being is torn to pieces
Eviscerated by unseen blades
As I crawl through my own conscience
I see shadows and silhouettes
Paranoia
I keep telling to myself
Enfolds what haunts me
My existence
It is all in my head
It is all in my head
It is all in my head
There's no escape
Here it comes again
From the freezing embrace
It just wants me dead
Wants me dead
Still fear consumes me head to toe
I can't tell who's friend or foe
My eyesight flickers
And dies in the haze
Still fear consumes me head to toe
I can't tell who's friend or foe
Paranoia
I keep telling to myself
Enfolds what haunts me
My existence
It is all in my head
It is all in my head
It is all in my head
There's no escape
Here it comes again
From the freezing embrace
It just wants me dead
My limbs are severed
My spirit defeated
My paranoia smiles
His final grin
With a final blow my life's deleted
The time has come to turn me in

Blame
04:01
|
|||
Light leads my way
Thin ray appeared
I don't remember this place
I don't know where I am
I don't know who I am
Lost in a blank space with no perception
A faceless with no remorse
The twilight void of stars
Makes my open wounds feel so cold
Bleeding out
Wasted time comes to haunt
I've lost myself
My tears turn into rotting mold
Heavy strides of my own past are trampling my mind
Heavy lies the conscience I was lacking in my fucking life
Dark came too fast
Dark came too fast
Lost in a blank space with no perception
A faceless with no remorse
The twilight void of stars
Makes my open wounds feel so cold
Bleeding out
Wasted time comes to haunt
I've lost myself
My tears turn into rotting mold
I am the landscape
Devastated and scarred
I am all that remains
A maimed mass
I am the landscape and my fear is the foot
Heavily stamping on my mind's every root
About to find the impacts of my sin
I slowly realize it's a fight I can't win
Dark came too fast
Dark came too fast
Dark came too fast
Who is to blame that this came to pass?
Who is to blame no questions were asked?
Who is to blame that this came to pass?
Who is to blame no questions were asked?

Insomnia
04:09
|

My heart carries a heavy burden
The toll to pay is gonna break my faith
Break my faith
Death has taught me enough
I can see it in everybody's eyes
The pungent stench of rot
Expelled everytime they take a breath
I set myself ablaze
I set myself ablaze
My hate never left me
My bitterness defines me
My conscience evades me
My inner sight betrayed me
I am not me
I let the flame burn, now I can't feel
I never cared for the world
Hope is always false, it's never real
Only submission, torture and fear
Death has taught me enough
I can see it in everybody's eyes
The pungent stench of rot
Expelled everytime they take a breath
I set myself ablaze
My hate never left me
My bitterness defines me
My conscience evades me
My inner sight betrayed me
I am not me
My eyes never close, I stare into the darkness
Where the shadow of my past materializes
This monstrosity is my own ruthless creation
I destroyed all the paths to a viable redemption
Insomnia is the air I inhale
My deliverance is void
Too many questions to ask myself
The truth always evades
I let the flame burn, now I can't feel
I never cared for the world
Hope is always false, it's never real
Only submission, torture and fear

Transcendental
05:38
|
|||
Into the light I came dragging my own past
Dragging my life infested with blame
Couldn't see through the smoke, the fog of hate
Heavy on my mind, it collapsed too fast
Round every corner I expected a fight
My demise
Never discerned right from the wrong
An imprint of the soul of my own
Through infinity I'm descending now
Now I stand naked facing a crowd
Gargantuan figures and tiny ones too
All eyes fixed at me yet faces I can't see
All of them deciding my final fate
All eyes fixed at me
All of them deciding my final fate
My reflection struck my eye
The creature looking at me
The abomination spoiling the scenery
I don't have any praise to tell
When they ask me If I'm bound for hell
If I'm bound for hell
Insatiable was my lust for more
When the chains burned my skin
Immovable, froze in greed
I merged into the death machine
I lost all my humanity
Toiling on to oblivion
Yet I realize it's not me I see
Hope is always false, never real
My conscience flutters above me
Is there a way to set me free
A million faces jitter at me
All the versions of me
I come to a dark room with no walls
Shards on the ground of my very core
Face my eyes to merge with my inner I
Now I stand naked facing a crowd
Gargantuan figures and tiny ones too
All eyes fixed at me yet faces I can't see
All of them deciding my final fate
All eyes fixed at me
All of them deciding my final fate
At speed of light, I shoot out of the maze
In a vertical ascent
Time isn't a cure but it doesn't exist
I'm the sole existence
The rage and fury feeds my inner force
I refuse to lay down my arms
I stand bare handed facing the final storm
Of bloody blades of the judgment of them all
All eyes fixed at me waiting for the sign
To charge and let me see
Their faces are all mine
