Once more, the final hours of man are upon us
We are swallowed whole with our great loves and sins
And delivered to graves where our nurseries once aligned
But this time, there will be no ark to carry us to amnesty
No dove to signal our survival
And no prophet to part the seas of our ending

Challenger

Run away, go
Lost within myself
Fallen upon by unspeakable arrogance
You will take your elbows off the table
Impossible to keep steady
My body is not ready
For this level of hate
But it's the danger that I crave
So close that I can taste it, I'm alive
I'm gonna push it further, enjoy the ride
Red is all I see
What it took to drive me to be an animal
Unspeakable
Pure imperfection
Malice riving me from this once human form
Rage forever keeps me warm
Now you've seen what I can do
Now you've seen what I am capable of
So take one last breath
Vindicated until the end
So close that I can taste it, I'm alive
I'm gonna push it further, enjoy the ride
You are a joke and this is the punchline
Ripping off your still flapping jaw
So surprised to see me
Laughing at the lie

My Facade
10:07
|
|||
|
I despise myself
I despise the way I am
Wish I had been born someone better
Someone worth the praise I so envy in the loved and the famous
But somehow I feel that no one is listening
To my burning deprecation
I never fell from grace
I jumped as I waved goodbye
To a world that could forget me easily
In this traversion of space and immortality
Endeavor to be free
In this traversion of face and personality
Endeavor to see my facade
Sickness consumes my heart and regurgitates a stone
Which I thrust into my chest until sinew is exposed
Look inside and search my veins for prophecy
I despise myself and I despise those like me
I never fell from grace
I jumped as I waved goodbye
To a world that could forget me easily
In this traversion of space and immortality
Endeavor to be free
In this traversion of face and personality
Endeavor to see my facade
This shell is unbreakable
This fortress around me defends Against the eyes of all mankind
As several means to one end
The toil (is) poetic rejection of design
He sought to be one with the world but he himself was two in the mind
Self-betrayal falls upon me, but I am not me, we are no longer the same
Will I ever stop trying to kill him--me?
My mind says no; my heart won't stop weeping
Long enough to give an answer
I never fell from grace
I jumped as I waved goodbye
To a world that could forget me easily
In this traversion of space and immortality
Endeavor to be free
In this traversion of face and personality
Endeavor to see my facade
This is me, this is who I truly am inside
Anathema of your kind

Say No More

Say no more
Can you feel me moving deep within your heart?
I feel it beating faster
Evenly cadent and overwhelmingly warm
On the outside, staring in
Peering deep through shallow skin
We're going to make it
You are my rest
So hold your breath
And let this one moment last forever
Say no more
Can you feel me moving deep within your heart?
(The) lore I know (will) never betray
The rhetorical nature of love
And such is yearning
We hopefuls wander on
Searching for purpose through coexistence
You are my rest
So hold your breath
And let this one moment last forever
Say no more
Can you feel me moving deep within your heart?
(The) lore I know (will) never betray
The rhetorical nature of love
You are my rest
So hold your breath
And let this one moment last forever
Say no more
Can you feel me moving deep within your heart?
I feel it beating faster
You are my rest
So hold your breath
And let this one moment last forever

A Reunion of Oceans
06:25
|
|||
|
Hemispheres are coming together
And tearing apart what was meant to last forever
Opening the floodgates of thirst
On humans and humanity to see which drowns first
Towering spires unveiling extinction lay waste
To the kingdom of numbness we wove
Towering spires consumed and left broken
Bow down as the ends of the earth rejoin
Look into their eyes and softly watch them die
Angels shimmering just beneath the surface, glistening
Seducing me, pulling me down a drain into a garbage-disposal
Look into their eyes and softly watch them die
Not a single soul was saved
Martyrs raped their prayers away
As the self-righteous tried to fly away in vain
Leveled by oceans, kingdoms and tombs lay in waste
Your homes, your loved ones devoured by the blue
Drowning in tears
Unforgiving blue has forsaken you to the deep
There will be no ark
There will be no dove
There will be no prophet
There will be nothing but fear
Save yourselves
Look into their eyes and softly watch them
(Gather and witness the effigy of all our sins
Mother, Redeemer, you reign once again)
Look into their eyes and softly watch them die
Look in their eyes, the moment life leaves them
Their glimmer of a soul turns dull and relieves them
Of the flesh they've condemned, no longer seeking reason
To toil any further, and accept that they've been beaten
Amen

Era 96
10:17

Exit reprise, this is the new agenda
Delay demise, the pseudo-axiom of splendor
Rewind and start again
Calculate the time wasted calculating the time that we had
Eminent death circling overhead like ravens
Shearing the black sheep of creation
And spinning the wool into yarn
At last, from me, take everything
I will be fine
Era ninety-six
This is the beginning of an era
Ninety-six more years until they kill us
Four worlds away, Chronos is taking shape
Sentient display, conscious mortality is set ablaze
Open your mind and deepen
Calculate the time wasted calculating the time that we had
Eminent death circling overhead like ravens
Shearing the black sheep of creation
And spinning the wool into yarn
At last, from me, take everything
I will be fine
Era ninety-six
This is the beginning of an era
Ninety-six more years until they kill us
You are an ending to an era
God is a question and death is the answer
Think on your knees
Is your life worth your belief?
Puncture the vein
Try to save yourself in vain
Calculate the time wasted calculating the time that we had
Eminent death circling overhead like ravens
Shearing the black sheep of creation
And spinning the wool into yarn
Morality cut in twain epitomizes dichotomous suffering
In our need to let go
Waiting at the threshold of amnesty to be called home
