I am all you've ever been
I'm man made Oblivion
Feed me your consciousness
Free me, so you may rest
Now you can relish the fact that you're never alone
As long as I'm here
Know your heart has a home
Hold onto your hope
You'll one day be complete
Come to your senses
You’ll always need me
When they all have forsaken
I will be your revenge
When they all have forgotten
Rest your head inside my hands

The only one that can kill me is me
Well, I've tried that for centuries
I sold my soul for this seed of salvation
This convalescence bleeds
Out the essence it breeds
Self destruction is all I know
And I've built this haven out of hollowed bones
So
We can look back together
On all the times I've died
The lives I've sacrificed
For my design
Welcome to my nightmare
Welcome to my mind
Why don't you stay the night here
You never know what you might find
We all live a life of war
On our own
I hear the voices
So much louder than they were before
Feels like I'm drowning
Still I'll count the times I've washed ashore
We all live a life of war
On our own
We're so much stronger
Than they'd ever give us credit for
Keep stacking bodies til
We're side by side at heaven's door
The only one that can kill me is me
Well, I've tried that for centuries
I sold my soul for this seed of salvation
This convalescence bleeds
Out the essence it breeds

Animus

Destroyer of worlds
The festering plague
That takes root in our hearts
You bring life to death and decay
Harbinger of hope
Bring me to the edge
For your own amusement
Watch me fall to death
Siren of the Sea
Lead me to the deep
If the waves consume me
I don't want to feel anything
How did it get this far
Why did we let it fall apart
This resentment
My clarity
I'm afraid I was played
For a fool who dreamt too long
In a world wide awake
I slept while you moved on
So on and on this story goes
Of the rage I’ll feel in my repose
Animus
I'll black the sky
In my revenge
You'll find no solace
In these words my friend
I'll sing my story
From atop these long dead Gods
And I'll be sure that your star
Will be the first to fall
How did it get this far
Why did we let it fall apart
This resentment
My clarity
I'm afraid I was played
For a fool who dreamt too long
In a world wide awake
I slept while you moved on
So I'll hold on to reveries
Lost in the dark
Before you showed me your heart
Had no room
For anyone but you
You leave scorched Earth
With your footprints in the sand
I’ll bring annihilation
Once you’ve forced my hand
This is my
My lullaby
That I confide
In lives
Whose hearts were ripped out of their chest

Vulture
03:25
|
|||
We'll call you a vulture
A bird of pretend
Show your neck devoid of feathers
And a heart that never lived
Waiting for the sick to fall to helplessness
The little lonely profiteer
Who thought himself a predator
Who lost himself to fear
We know you’ll never change
So I guess it's all on me
Cause we know you'll never change
And we know you'll always say
That I'm the one to blame
Disgrace my name
My name
And I may not walk on water
But at least I have my honor
You dream of a life you’ll never know
What it's like to love
What it's like to have a home
So I guess it's all on me
Cause we know you'll never change
And we know you’ll always say
That I'm the one to blame
Disgrace my name
We'll see
We'll see this
We'll see this through
So I guess it's all on me
Cause we know you'll never change
And we know you’ll always say
That I'm the one to blame
Disgrace my name
For fate forsakes the fallen
For fate
For fate forsakes the fallen ones
For fate

I can't take it
I can't-
Make it go away
I can't take it
I can't-
Get out of my head
Just show me a world where
We can pretend we're the chosen ones
Now know me a moment
Just let me repent for the things I've done
I can't shake it
I can't
I can't take this
Get out of my head
I'm done lying, done believing
The moments I've left are fleeting
The sun is crying, the moon is weeping
I know this God, but She's sleeping
Somebody wake her up
Before the whole world falls to dust
I need answers, love
I'm in my head, again
I've made me, I'm made of
Stories I've written out of what
I wanted, I needed
Affirmation from hearts I'll never k(no)w
Words make me, I'll break me down
To a shell of what I was
I'm done lying, done believing
The moments I've left are fleeting
The sun is crying, the moon is weeping
I know this God, but she's sleeping
Somebody wake her up
Before the whole world falls to dust
I'm in my head, again
This echo chamber
Well, it's fallen out of favor
And the masquerade
It's all in flames
I always choke on the smoke
Of my negativity
A burden built for my Self by society
A synthetic song of self-loathing
For all of us to hear
Their words carry empty weight
Bringing only bricks to build
A narcissistic monument
To mass produce our guilt
I just want this all to end
This endless war within
I'm done lying, done believing
the moments I've left are fleeting
The sun is crying, the moon is weeping
I know this God, but She's sleeping
Somebody wake her up
Before the whole world falls to dust
I need answers, love
I'm in my head, again

Misery
02:38
|
|||
I've witnessed the wavering
Wailing of death
And I long for the time
Where her palms meet my chest
This isn't life
Not what I wanted it to be
My misery
Just needs some company
Somebody save me
Save me from
This nightmare
I've become
Unrelenting
With the burdens I've placed within
So unforgiving
Of the hopes burning under my skin
Until death does depart
I'll hold on to hope
That one day all your voices
Will call back my tropes
All I have to live for
Is to find my heart a home
Where my mind can't
Undermine the coal
That fuels the fire that burns in me
‘Cause
I've witnessed the wavering
Wailing of death
I long for the time
Where her palms meet my chest
This isn't life
Not what I wanted it to be
My misery
Just needs some company

Vectors

I've felt time
Slip through my hands
I want you to understand
There's nothing here for you
In these shifting sands
Take your stand
I know you want something real
In a world made for manufactured
Exaggerated obsolescent vectors
I can feel it
I can feel this
I can feel it in my blood
It doesn't have to be like this
No, it just can't stay like this
You lived a life led by fear
The spirit disease that you've conceived
That feeds on insecurities
You never thought would find you here
Alone in your refuge, but it feels so alive
In your deluge of lamentation
Their lies hide behind universal truths
And against this world
What could you do
What could we hope to do
Can we see through the
Ghosts of our reflection
Maybe we
Maybe we could believe in something
What could we hope to do
Can we see through the
Ghosts of our reflection
Make us whole again
Could we make us whole again
We created a host
For the human condition
Injected her blood with
An abject existence
We created a host
For the human condition
A network of lies
Vying for our attention
What could we hope to do
Can we see through the
Ghosts of our reflection
Maybe we
Maybe we could believe in something
What could we hope to do
Can we see through the
Ghosts of our reflection
Make us whole again
Could we make us whole again

Of all the things to believe
Why believe in me
You know
You're wasting your time
Trying to see
What you’ve already seen
Now I know I'm not cut out for this
Not just trying to live for me but
Just trying to live
I'm just trying to live
So, I locked myself in this
Ivory tower
Reliving the mistakes I've made
Hour by hour
Hour by miserable hour
My ghosts
That I composed in time
Realized they could feel alive
If they'd just lie their heads
Upon my breast
To hear the heart quivering in my chest
I really need to get this out of my head
But you're not listening
I said I need to get this out of my head
But you're not listening
I thought maybe I could get this out of my head
But you're not listening
I've seen how this ends
I've felt fire in rain
They say to choose life
Instead I chose pain
(In the rain I feel alive)
We live out of our lives
Chasing the stars
This is what happens
When the sky departs
I wanted to change
I wanted to change
I wanted to change
I wanted to change
I leave you my memories
To hang on the wall
To my friends and my family
It's not your fault
I wanted to change
I wanted to change
I wanted to change
But I chose pain
I wanted to stay
We live in the moment
But the moments they fade
And as time goes on
I know I'll be erased
I wanted to change
I wanted to change
I wanted to stay
I'll write the words you speak
For the whole world to hear
It's nights like tonight
I wish you were here
If only I had listened
You'd be here today
I could have been the change
I could have been the change
