Inhale life's end, we are gods wearing hollow crowns

Put our lives on a silver platter, until the starving can eat no more

Spilling blood in the soil, slap a noose on the young



Lord take a step back, 

behind the shadow of lies 

the living eyes have never bled this blind

False guidance held high, 

a sermon of sin, a sign of the times



All hope is lost, death springs new life, grasping at the seams



Milk the tree of its fruit while the herd circle the few that remain,

No violence needed but the mental strain takes place 



Enough to bring a mountain to its knees

Ignore the signs around us and burn the life inside 



Dead hearts

Dead hearts beating 



Tear us apart, Dead beating hearts

Inhale life's end, we are gods wearing hollow crowns

Beautiful ruined monuments, history burned to the ground

Unity, dispersed more than ever, disinherit our own heritage



Fight for a revolution that doesn't even exist, make belief childish ambition



Revel in the darkness that we create, lost in the fire of damnation



Erode, erode

The planet we live on

Sown sacrifice summons the curse



Imagine a peace where world's coexisted

Impossible

Freedom's warmth everlasting

How we hope the feeling would never pass



Damp leaves twist and turn left a story untold

How the land mourns a past left unknown

Lost in the ages

Hidden from mortal eyes



Breathe deep the scent of rain

Soil plowed the ground brings new joy in the sorrow we carry across



Veil of gray sweeps the sky as the cloudy hills rise above, fields rustle to calm the silent



Journey far forest deep, landscapes unfold

Seal our hearts in the chests underground



Blind unbound we travel roads, as illumination cracks the clouds

Both sated and shaken return, to the end of the highway



Determined we will remain

For the forsaken we carry the pain

Solemnly rest in peace

The reminder

Do we even care? 



While the land is plundered and souls are scattered amongst the corpses



Down a bottle to drown the thought there always another day



Until the ghosts comeback. 



It's easy to run your mouth

High up on your horse



Preach untruth lies misinformation

Ruin the lives others that cross your path

Slither your way to the top

Cold serpent eyes



I hope you it makes you feel good, justified

To drive another to take his own life

A humble visage while the demon lurks beneath



I hold on to what remains of my sanity



Liar, coward, deceiver

Insecure to the bone

Liar, coward, deceiver

Revel in the sewage that is your soul



I hope you find peace, in the hell that you reside in



Dark is the howl, hard is the head, soft is the heart, 



Distorted images 

Of what was and what should be

Misplaced fears strong in the paradox 

What are we even anymore?

Fading through memories no ledges to hold on

Climbing to sunlight out walls that surround us

Poison seeping in veins of the ancient left to decay



A fall from grace

Pulled down by the chains

Held back by the burden of self doubt

Resources spread amongst the privileged

While the world turns insane



Hide your head in the ground from the chaos our daily routines are filled with the reminder



That no one is immune



Throw what's left at the end of the scrap heap

Piled up high for the lost to scavenge

Living to die



A fall from grace

Pulled down by the chains

Held back by the burden of self doubt

Resources spread amongst the privileged

While the world turns insane



You might not feel the same

Until dead end up on your doorstep

You might not feel the same

Until dead end up at your feet

Unrest eternal

The unshakeable burden

A torment to last for all time

A pain unwavering that's chained to this life



Destruction

The human result

The power and the glory

All a path to a halt

Where do

We turn to?



No one can be spared

No one is exempt



When faith is lost

When lives are cost

When loss is gained

Again and again

Where do

We turn to?



No one can be spared

No one is exempt



Unrest eternal

Take me out



Take me out

Make me no more

Give this pain to somebody else

Someone with a stronger soul

Dragging along the line again

I feel the air deepen with regret

Longing for an altered state of mind

Depraved of the light that divides the dark within



Ligature tied to the soul

Neglect the ones around us and lose what cannot ever be regained

Anchor tied to our ankles

Mourn the loss at the grave

That we buried ourselves in



Falling through the haze of fog beneath us

No land to ground ourselves to this place



Ligature tied to the soul

Neglect the ones around us and lose what cannot ever be regained

Anchor tied to our ankles

Mourn the loss at the grave

That we buried ourselves in



Neglect the ones around us and lose what cannot be regained



Never lose the feeling or reap the past forever long

The noose is loose

The beast has been born

The dawn of another loose cannon

In a wicked world that's torn



Pulling me limb from limb 

With this body built of sin

I Manifest and i suffer

This vessel is destined to dirt



Don't let me go



Holding on to nothing

The disaffected youth

Cursed from the beginning 

In the endless search for truth



The eternal search for purpose 

I will perish alone

Only the wind through the trees

Will begin to call me home



Chasing the dawn

Til the end of the world

Im banished and gone



Im destined to dirt

You're destined to dirt

Earth shatters as a thousand voices echo through the tunnels

Separate the cries from the clamour beneath the rubble

Coal dusted faces scurry to the light that shimmers 

From oil filled lamps that extinguish one by one



Breaking rocks where Death reputes under the surface

As the sky collapses above doom filled caverns

Rooms of amber encase bodies of those left behind

The hearth in the hearts of men fragment for all time



Love ones abandoned without a choice or say

Make your peace with the devil cause God can't hear you now



Reaching out dirt filled chambers as the cinder-shards burn hands

Revoke the will to live, no one will judge you here



Earth shatters as a thousand voices are silenced in the tunnels

Separate the gasps from the clamour beneath the rubble

Coal dusted faces lifeless underground

War rips the world asunder as they perish below
