Cage 04:09
Light Life Karma The end? The end? The last rays of light shed an image An image on the retina Last drops of rain Flow down my skin Until it starts bleeding Carnivores swallow lost souls Victims of their dreams Damnation Silence Duality The beginning? The beginning? We build our cages Cages of solitude We disappear in isolation The body is expanding and contracting Only feels throbbing agony And then it tears into pieces Last drops of rain Flow down my skin Until it starts bleeding Carnivores swallow lost souls Victims of their dreams We build our cages Cages of solitude We disappear in isolation Until the darkness consumes us Until we turn into dust Then nothing ever comes back We are the fleeting Light Life The end? The beginning?

Depraved 03:24
All the lights have died Poked out eyes That never cried Hypnotize me Empty lips Are gasping in silent defiance The neverending rainfall Uncovers uncertainty The sirens scream in my head Hear the echoes of barren desert Hear the echoes Of empty sky Of empty sky I am the black star of the empty sky I am the scream of the orphaned child I am the black star of the empty sky I am a barren desert I'm falling down Down The sirens scream in my head The sirens scream in my head Hear the echoes of barren desert Hear the echoes Of empty sky Of empty sky Empty lips Are gasping in silent defiance The neverending rainfall Uncovers uncertainty With my breath held I swim the surface I'm falling down

A ghost town A ghost town Slowly appears in my view The gate opens its cold embrace It will hold and never let go There is no choice The smell of fear defeats everyone Everyone A ghost town A ghost town Slowly appears in my view A crowd praying quietly For one salvation A crowd praying quietly For others damnation Anxiety grows into a silent madness Freezing calm embracing all The final station of several thousand pieces My closed eyes perceive The fluttering ashes are pierced by a neverending cry A crowd praying quietly For one salvation A crowd praying quietly For others damnation Snow white faces fall asleep in ignorance Snow white faces fall asleep in ignorance They believe in a near reunion They believe in better days

Traitor 04:29
Look it's the sunrise Maybe it's the last sunrise Look it's the sunrise Maybe it's the last sunrise Everything is still immaculate in this moment Although something bad was left unsaid, was left unsaid A deafening swarm of light bring us on the edge We can't hide We can't hide We can't hide We are nothing else than liars Who lie to yourself mostly Has it to be the evolution? Don't be affraid Don't be affraid Affraid of nothing Behind the mask of perversion We still stayed the same The same Same We can't hide We can't hide We can't hide We are nothing else than liars Who lie to yourself mostly We can't hide We can't hide We can't hide We are nothing else than liars Who lie to yourself mostly Small children limited by comunications So let's burn everything What we have created Small children limited by comunications So let's burn everything What we have created

Echoes 03:05
Behind the mask of clouds losing its color In the middle of the distant Distant storm A rush of panic Rush In your eyes I see shadow rising belonging to no one In sadness and joy Emptiness opens its arms Emptiness opens its arms Clouds of ashes coming together over our nasty heads Screaming in fear, screaming in pain Unaware that it's too late Clouds of ashes coming together over our nasty heads Screaming in fear, screaming in pain Because we never woke Woke up I know a place where all my dreams are dead Dead dreams swim into our lives In shapeless silhouettes of our lives Which remain buried deep with us Deep with us I feel the rot I stuffed down my throat Just small lies Echoes from the past lost in time How long we will wait for the sign Clouds of ashes coming together over our nasty heads Screaming in fear, screaming in pain Because we never woke Woke up

Distance 03:12
Like a lonesome stalker I stand in the distance Observing the illusion Still in the face of fate I always get caught In the spider webs like then Like then Like then It's harder with every breath But life is unforgiving We change the past for it hurts us Now only memories remain Of when the darkness wasn't so deep And everything was possible The emptiness creeps slowly over our back Over our back Polished beauty fades into silence Into silence My heart beats My heart beats

IRE 04:18
It tears me apart It tears me apart Right now I'm choking I close my eyes I close my eyes Before everything I hid myself Miles away The air was light In no man's land I was waiting for a breaking point Now I know Lies are everywhere Lies are everywhere It tears me apart It tears me apart Right now I'm choking You played a wicked game I refuse to be What you want You gave me life Now it's too late You cynical bastard I hid myself Miles away The air was light In no man's land I was waiting for a breaking point Now I know Lies are everywhere Lies are everywhere I open my eyes Right now You played a wicked game I refuse to be What you want

Solace 03:47
Beneath the clouds of burning red Where rains and storms left water shed Beneath the clouds of burning red Where rains and storms left water shed You shine from the inside Beneath the clouds of burning red Where rains and storms left water shed Beneath the clouds of burning red Where rains and storms left water shed You shine from the inside Where oceans and winds left no soul There's no more peace, I've lost contol Confidence's gone These things don't last forever Existing just for a moment How could one believe in anything What was not ever real and brought me just this sickening Nothingness! Where oceans and winds left no soul There's no more peace, I've lost contol Confidence's gone These things don't last forever So many issues for a single tear I'm rejecting your hurt and fear Like a pale and distant sunset Faceless Regrets don't bring the absolution Trails of hate will congregate It's time to quit this masquerade Masquerade Nothingness! Like a pale and distant sunset Faceless Regrets don't bring the...

Noise 04:15
Through my throat I regurgitate disgorge rotting innards The remains of virtue I want long to stay Be empty Be empty as long as I can forever As long as possible Forever? I keep hearing voices Coming back with every night Every night Every night Blood sticks to unhealed aching wounds Feeling of madness keeps growing every minute Time passes so slowly Through my throat I regurgitate disgorge rotting innards The remains of virtue I want long to stay Be empty Be empty As long as I can forever As long as possible Forever? I keep hearing voices Coming back with every night Every night Every night Blood sticks to unhealed aching wounds How much can I control what I wish for? How many of my choices are rational? Everything dissolves into white colour Bloody tears fill the void Bloody tears fill the void Violent fists of anger kill the best in me I don't need to deserve I don't need to deserve to live How much can I control what I wish for? How many of my choices are rational? I don't need you I don't need you anymore I don't need you I don't need you anymore That's my prize That's my prize
