Oh misery of mine, you torture me with time It occupies my every thought No sun is in the sky, come to the other side Let's learn what we once forgot Yesterday is holding me back, disrupting the fabric of the future I'll never forgive you today The wounds in my heart forever bleeding Broken mirrors, shattered glass A sharp reflection of the past Reminders of potential gone to waste Move in shadows far from light Out of mind and out of sight The fear of memories I couldn't face A soul decayed, the body weak Another night in restless sleep The blood within my veins has frozen cold Ancient wisdom, silent voice No forceful hand will guide my choice The secrets of the dead remain untold There will be no stone left unturned There is no punishment too severe There is no deadline on denial You shall be judged according to your brother's sins Fall behind and join the herd Deep in sleep, do not disturb He who stands alone is surely lost Hell below us, earth above A hopeless fool in search of love Asylum sought but seldom come across A symbiosis come undone, for years it's died I tried to run A decade in disgrace has dulled desire All that glows is meant to fade I crawl through darkness unafraid I'll burn alive to make it through the fire If only time would cease to exist... Swallowed up and washed away by the raging rivers of blood The fortress I built around me couldn't withstand the force of the flood The world we know will crumble, the moon and the stars will fade Join me in solemn reverence and mourn for the memories we made The fall has been foretold for generations The strength of my resistance has been conquered and divided Words that burn and leave a scar, spoken in reverse Symbols I cannot decode, a chant to lift the curse Ramblings scratched into the wall but the message has been replaced Angels abandon heaven while demons search for grace I will have to answer for my crimes But I won't pay the price for damage done before my time I will not fall victim to your judgement I will not be sacrificed upon your altar of lies

I watched you vomit venom from your pretty little mouth The sickness spreads infection, will you ever spit it out? You harbour hatred yet your lips tell lies of love We slit our throats together and drown naked in the blood You terrorize my peace, every conflict turns to war I sacrificed my sanctity, I won't stay silent anymore There's nothing left you can defend The means won't justify your end This tangled web of words you've spun Is a language spoke with bitter tongue I feel your burning gaze searing through both flesh and bone My Medusa, a stare returned will set my place in stone The emotions that enslave you are the same that imprison me There's so much dark in both our hearts, we shared a lack of sympathy We held each other close, we drug each other down We dug ourselves a hole and made a home beneath the ground I stole your innocence and killed what I could not control I wanted you to stay but left you with nowhere to go Devastation, no remorse, all empathy forgotten And so this too shall run its course, the ripe become the rotten Ugly, unrecognizable, as I break free of your spell Disfigurement revealed, no longer hidden in your shell Assemble another abomination Diminish and disintegrate Your crown of thorns is a broken halo Just another self-made saviour to eliminate Don't speak my name again You sold yourself in vain You invade my territory and stake an unworthy claim You place your flag above mine, chasing glory without taking blame I had to learn to breathe in the midst of suffocating You left me with a lack of air in my time of need when my faith was fading

Amidst the orchestra of angry voices a whisper goes unheard Manic screams crack the wall of silence, peace feels undeserved Everything we fought for and all we both desired The pieces to our puzzle have been thrown into the fire Misfortune mocks a flawed design, mortality is meant to fail Worn and weathered by winds of change, we die and decompose behind the veil A siren serenade endlessly repeats its eerie sound Numb to the noise, we were never lost and never wanted to be found Our eyes have learned to lie, look beyond what you can see A beauty long adored conceals the ugliness underneath The chanting choirs of hell have congregated with torches lit The axe of the executioner comes terrible and swift Our war wages on through the night We both bear the burden of blame The vultures spread wings and take flight They summoned the hordes as they came They summoned the hordes when they came Judge not and ye shall be judged not They know not of what lies behind the veil

I feel I have been here before like I've lived my whole life over again Is it all just a game, to be trapped in a maze with no end? My conviction is waning, my ambition is all but gone Losing myself as I'm finding myself Somehow i dig deep and try to carry on I know there's something wrong, I've been fighting this feeling for far too long There's a desperate anger, a voiceless scream Every waking thought is a dying dream I will never submit to a lack of control The cold fingers of failure reach deep into my soul Slip into the shadows and fade away Blend in with all the other shades of grey Though my world is turning black, I know I can't go back There is no god to call upon when the last light is gone I know you've only seen my face, when I finally disappear I won't leave a trace I pulled apart the pieces of my empty soul I had to lose it all to try to gain control The clouds inside my head carry the rain I wonder if I'll ever be happy again.. With open arms I welcome the storm to wash away the past so I can be reborn No matter what I've done it's only me I can't outrun If this is how I choose to live there is no one to forgive I only hope I will stay strong when the last light is gone The last of my resilience is slipping away I stare at the fate of my future in dismay

A hint of evil in human flaw Man exists unto himself beyond the code of law But ye must not indulge in unholy sin Betray your instincts and allow the weak to win Bursting madness, desire commanding me to kill A hate that hides below; awaiting strike, lying still My thirst for domination knows no peaceful resolution I'll always find the enemy in you A history of violence, sworn to feed their hungry mouths Allegiance bound by blood, an army I can't win without My lust for conquest is insatiable, my appetite for power I'll always find the weaknesses in me Overwhelming anger, disloyal love Revenge to gain redemption but still it's not enough Lovers become strangers in this twisted masquerade Unraveling the progress that we made When fury fornicates with tragedy my growing strength demands a casualty Your life hangs in the balance of my hands One wrong move and I'll kill you where you stand Your mouth is wide but your mind is empty There's nothing spoken that resembles truth I bite my tongue and swallow my pride, I'm seconds away from exposing you I've witnessed it all firsthand, how the spread of lies can destroy a man I never wanted to be anyone else no matter how much I've hated myself This won't define me so put away your sticks and stones The warrior inside me fears neither death nor broken bones I ask not for forgiveness, but a steady hand upon my blade To rid my heart of sickness and carry me through my darkest days When the sleeping demon finally wakes his fiery wrath will be unleashed No place for peace in times of war, I'll find the cure for your disease Maybe I've become the villain, but when has a hero ever belonged? When foundations fail and kingdoms collapse, who decides what's right and what is wrong?

Your ego won't be satisfied until I'm empty Who died and made you lord above me? You paint me black for all the world to see Your self respect will die with me I tried to break your fall, instead you dragged me with you Misery loves company after all I tried to save you, rebuilt your walls The only memories you can't recall You looked me in the eyes, I held your gaze But still your face gave nothing away I'm running out of reasons faster than you're running out of time I didn't break your spirit but still I picked up all the pieces I could find You couldn't consecrate our union after all the misery you had endured I held onto hope enough for both of us, you seemed so perfectly impure I've ran out of excuses and you've ran your life into the ground I'm slowly falling backwards, I couldn't bear to watch myself fall down I left the door wide open hoping that you'd find your own way through I showed you all the evidence and yet you didn't want to see it as proof I take no pleasure in your pain Why must you cast me aside? My sacrifices were all in vain I couldn't turn back the tide I cut the cords that held you back My outstretched arms couldn't reach you A snake sees prey within a rat That's why I didn't believe you I took you in, gave you warmth when you were cold and lonely Look at me now, what is a king without his crown?

I'm falling off the edge of eternity Surrounded by the many different versions of myself It's the truth that terrifies me I find misfortune with no one's help Drifting in and out of sleep, there's a lack of silence Every waking moment filled with conversation mindless There is no one left to trust, faces I don't recognize While the weak bend with the wind, I won't compromise I'm barely holding onto sanity Losing faith in any lasting spark of inspiration It's only consequence confronting me A final act of desperation Falling in and out of grace, fate is cruel and twisted Good and evil ebb and flow as though no laws existed All the progress I have made disappears on second glance I have lost too much to give this life a second chance There is no antidote, there are no words to say I've resigned myself, another sheep gone astray Dive headfirst into the deep, I'm forced to swim against the stream I've kept my silence long enough, I can't hold back these screams Maybe I'm a broken link in the rusty chain of evolution Balanced on the brink of extinction, desperate for a solution The cruel hands of fate have spun their twisted magic The icy grip of sadness is worse than I imagined A resurrection rendered obsolete Inheritance unclaimed, my destination incomplete I'll take the blame and spare your guilt I hope it's true that anything broken can be rebuilt I beat my fist into the ground until the bones are shattered loose My blind belief in justice led my neck into the noose Lock my heart away and hide the key somewhere I'll never find it Kill the soul, I've lost control I shouldn't have to be reminded Why should I take pity on myself? In a world where there's no mercy for the mild Another tragedy, another tale to tell I haven't tasted freedom for awhile

I am the only one who knows the difference between who I am and how you speak of me I know I tried my best to do my best for you, is that really what you think of me? You spit upon my name to to satisfy your desire to play the innocent victim You think it's all a game to to rake me over the coals but you lost your conviction This is just so sickening, I gave myself away to save you but it all meant nothing Go ahead and use me as your scapegoat, maybe one day you'll own up to something Put it all on me, I have the strength and resolve to carry all the weight If i wanted to hurt you I would've kept it to myself and never told you straight I look much different through your eyes I wear the perfect disguise You wouldn't honour my demands Now I've got your blood on my hands I pointed out your deception But that isn't your perception One day you'll be alone just like I was I hope you remember this moment when that day comes Do you feel justified cutting me down so I'm just as low as you are? Does it help you sleep at night to put the blame on me for all your scars? Now I've got your blood on my hands

Come Inside 05:36
Just close your eyes, escape Your figure forms the perfect shape Body symmetry, it draws a perfect line Connect, two becomes one state of mind Hold you close, arrive inside Motion mimics the ocean tide Hear your gasp become a scream Your secret side is safe with me Your warm enclosure draws me in You are the eighth and final sin We've read the story, know our roles Your fragments make my fragments whole Two hearts that beat but never sleep I won't look back, we're in too deep Spinning fast but moving slow There is no limit to how far we go I was cold and unprotected You opened up your doors and let me come inside I was weak, you kept me strong You opened up your doors and let me come inside I cannot deny it felt so liberating for me to come inside Your warmth surrounded me We put all fears aside, our moment had been waiting I hardly recognize the man you found in me I was on my way out Nothing learned from the past When you dig up old bones you know pain will not last There were flaws in my shield Kept myself out of line You came through with an aura divine I could never cleanse another dirty angel They can't be fixed they learn to fly on their own You stood in my defense, your body barely able Unclenched my fist and gave my heart a home I regained my desire, now I'm finally here New meaning emerges as smoke starts to clear As our years intertwine and our roots settle in All the pain will make sense when we know where we've been If beauty had a name yours would be the same You saw beyond my hurt, your best came at my worst I was caught up in a storm, you took me in and gave me warmth Love so deep I nearly died til you let me come inside Come inside

Will there ever be a place in this world for someone like me? I'm drifting along, going unnoticed by most of the people I see I am hopelessly lost like you Is there nothing any of us can do? I have watched as my youth is destroyed in exchange for this aging corpse of mine A future I've wasted away and pissed down the drain for a fleeting moment in time I gaze upon the stars in the sky Reaching out to catch one as it falls Luck has eluded my grasp so far But I'm determined not to miss them all In a planet so vast and unexplored Somewhere out there is a key If I search every corner of the earth Will it reveal itself to me? Stranded in the company of devils Homesick for a world I've never seen before Sentenced to die and slowly decay It would be foolish to expect there's anything more I gaze upon the graves of my brothers I read the names of the ones I have failed Some suffered a terrible fate For in the end none can prevail I wonder if they found peace at the end Or discovered what is buried inside Were secrets revealed and the truth really told When they said their final goodbyes? Led astray by the word of the blind Who stood on the shoulders of far greater men Those who won't eat the opinions they're fed Will be cast out and through to the wolves in the end Are we losing our minds? Or just losing our way? Is this really the end...for us all? I felt depression sink its teeth into my soul Made myself a martyr to recover what they stole Sleeping sickness, functions are disengaged Energy exhausted, just a working slave Since the curse of my creation I have felt the blade being thrust into my back Imperfect saviour, cast the first stone at me A thousand failures before my final victory For every time I wished that I would die, another part of me was glad to be alive I told myself I had to walk away even though it was me who made the choice to stay Just when I had reached my lowest point yet I had a revelation I will not forget My mind and soul must be synchronized in will My heart will fall in line when fortune is fulfilled A million methods used to walk a thousand miles away The further that I went the less inclined I felt to stay I knew that spreading pain wouldn't help my heart absorb the hurt After all it's not so great a distance from the playground to the dirt No story ever ends the same way it began A human without flaws was never within the plans No way to read the future though this is my tale to tell The pages tend to turn themselves Welcome to the end of everything

about

This album is my observations and learnings over the past couple of years when it comes to life, essentially. It is meant to give a tool that is useful in navigating the trials of living. Everything in life is a cycle, it has a beginning and en end; and sometimes when one thing ends or dies it is so that something better and more important can take its place. This is the theme of the album.
