As the flame draws It’s last breath from the Fire that burned in your memory Slowly but surely, you all disappear One by one, causing my mind to Wonder, relentless, step aside ! No field of clear vision paving my way Dark footsteps advance as I’m trying to run I’d rather evade than face all faces that will forever submit to these changes Never Again ! When the time comes you have to think clear Even if time is absent and the heart is Not Your Own - NOT YOUR OWN Although this fragile mold is strong Your human mind is surely dragging you down When, When are you going to realize it Reaching the gutter first Is not as bad As losing the one you loved Permanent gap Remember this exact moment And every thought and plot that you played Inside your head or even worse Your soul where everything is dead For the sake of the moment Do your best and pretend that There something human left inside of you As the flame draws It’s last breath from the Fire that burned in your memory Slowly but surely You all disappear One by one Causing my mind to Wonder, relentless, step aside ! No field of clear vision paving my way Dark footsteps advance as i’m trying to run I’d rather evade than face all faces that will forever remain the same

One last dying word Etched into the stone Covering the tomb Of this blearing world Momentous knowledge is discreetly worn and altered By the collective that didn’t bother to reckon with the sense of true understanding Mark my words: this lesson ! Will be learned the Hardest way you can imagine All you can do is Stand still and PRAY The cycle keeps repeating Mind over matter beating Slowest pulse there is Just waiting for a fix But instead of ! The hunger lingers More than it should Consuming Humanity WHOLE Moreover You’re only used to generate Confusion and hate Instead of seeing further than Your eyes can perceive Perpetuator of lies and deceit Forcing his way among this populace Confused from the very beginning of knowledge Their faded eyes will slowly waste away

Come closer ! That face is fake ! It makes me sick ! Incoming dead weight ! For as long as I can remember My thoughts of you were kind But as you bend and tremble You’re losing the ride To each his own This is not a war Just take the bag of bones On your way out the door Nothing lasts forever except for dust Come closer ! That face is fake ! It makes me sick ! Dispose of the dead weight in my arms Don’t mind the blood spill at my feet Don’t bite your tongue, SPEAK Losing grasp of the worm Crawling in my mind Zero tolerance instated For the first time Break through all the tension Crawl back to the place where Light is cast on top of The purest reflections witnessed by all men In the end avoided and grinded to a dry halt Level The earth without any mercy Bring forth the end of all earthly possessions A new guiding light

Gone astray There’s no turning back Forget all the things you wish you had Forget all familiar faces Embrace nothing All was feeling settled Until now Breathing no longer A privilege Beyond this false servitude Clogged by mangled thoughts Reacting as I knew they would A nuisance growing I would rather hold me back I would rather calm my senses I would rather still my face I would rather leave this place Closing in on me I see it coming I see it spreading I see it charging at me I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again No more pressure Countless clashes All to decide If you come out alive or you come out dead inside Closing in on me Accept the motion and stillness Resent the touch that they cast Take over this fake illness Be the one who will outlast Even go further than ever Fit the pieces back in place Burn the ones of black and wither Reach the end without disgrace Beyond this false servitude Clogged by mangled thoughts Reacting as I knew they would A nuisance growing I would rather hold me back I would rather calm my senses I would rather still my face I would rather leave this place

A different story needs to be told I’ve waited so long just to be heard To ride a feeling, to set myself free Behold this side of me Words escape me At the top of my lungs I’ve no words to describe this feeling Of calming madness Words escape me At the top of my lungs I’ve no words to describe this feeling Of fleeting numbness Force myself to feel Empty words become real Walking on the edge To which side should I pledge Consider the options They’re not even close Well never mind those I’ll write a few of my own Skin of your teeth Reeling it in Against the clock Down to the wire Skin of your teeth Reeling it in Against the clock Down to the wire Words escape me At the top of my lungs I’ve no words to describe this feeling Of calming madness Words escape me At the top of my lungs I’ve no words to describe this feeling Of fleeting numbness

The sky is getting older The lights begin to flicker There is no more order My hands are dead and I feel colder The air inside my lungs Starts feeling differently Each breath I strip away Comes back fucked up to me The sky is getting older The lights begin to flicker There is no more order My hands are dead and I feel colder A painting worth a thousand words Displayed for starving dying eyes It’s colors, no longer a privilege It’s essence eating away Every living soul Food for thought is wasted Time to play a game called Life You’re born without a master Yet you choose so many You’d rather age in silence Searching for the key to the cage With an open door Food for thought is wasted Time to play a game called Life God fucking awful God fucking awful

As I open my eyes I realize that nothing can stop me from doing everything as I please Godless is this road paved before me became the illusion-reality controlling all Absolute power of mending the world as she trembles and submits to all My right/wrong thoughts things that you can’t Materialize in real life just keep silent and fight with your thoughts held behind The bullshit starts and stops as others command you to prove your existence is flawed Gone wrong but now is my chance to do as I please Allow these fucked up perceptions to spread like a man made disease Witness your end Feels like, Ending all life as far I see Doesn’t come close to My image of what true peace meant, tumbling away To be reconsidered is a privilege Not many get, they’re usually fucked over instead Woe Fuck me over? Yeah right! Your whole life flashing Before your eyes Fuck your borders I’ve had enough This time we part ways In different planes Out of this world

Sometimes I wonder how far's the sun from here Does it burn as we get closer and closer (and...) Cause I think we are near (I THINK WE’RE NEAR) Exquisite statues made of glass What a beautiful, hollow design Put under pressure when issues collide Sure they will shatter so fast Sometimes I wonder how far is the sun from here Does it burn if we get closer? Cause I think we’re near And as the turmoil spreads faster we find comfort in fear Home is nowhere, nothing, without you and me, Everything that’s destined, will never be seen If we don’t really want it - it never will be In a world stripped of honesty, no hope, no amnesty, nothing to save us from us, We can bruise our knees ever so much but that - blow won't give us no - Clean ride - back home We’re surrounded by static, by glass and by steel, the mechanics of our Insides have fractured and still We’re the only ones left kicking, fighting to feel Exquisite statues made of glass What a beautiful, hollow design Put under pressure when issues collide Sure they will shatter so fast I’ve got some unfinished business With all the things they say/convey After everything that I've witnessed I can't stand the light of day Have you ever felt it / so complicated Have you seen that / everything's jaded I think it’s about time you see how it all works I think it’s about time you understand what’s really worth If you hear a voice swim inside your head Don't stop, or listen to what it says Miracles are not that often anymore It’s all just you against a world you adore Sometimes it lays you down And then you act surprised It tears you back around And still you act surprised Take this hospital bed and throw it away Pull the plug on whatever's making you breathe The life in me has got to be All that you need to keep falling on your feet Stand tall on my own feet

Confined by our own decisions While they strive to keep the status-quo Inside we're just as designed, constrained No heart, no mind and no soul Everything we feared the most is happening Sorrow builds suffering tears just Fall into place, help us drown in our own cowardice Just to dry up and disappear History repeats itself, shifting shape and keeping pace With the customized versions of the theories we embrace The lesson's always the same, the rules will never change It's ever so hard to admit, things never rearrange We don't move, we don't react in ways that contradict their purposes The mechanics of the grand design When the inkwells have spilled and the meaning has died Will we then know it's time S/H poets murder the pages, with headings that bear lies and mischief But their inkwells will spill, and the meaning will die Dancing to the sound of their bones snapping We will amend this situation Building us a reason to keep striving We'll carry on until till the end of our time Dancing to the sound of their bones snapping We're gonna watch them fall, laughing Keeping us alive artificially, we will Die if it's what it takes, to start a brand new day When you hear the calling come join the lines and Help us free, patch this bleeding world as hate Disappears, thrown from currency to past When the inkwells have spilled and the meaning has died Will we then know it's time To end the grand design, which despite what you think Holds nothing divine, it's you or me who's behind a relay race I watched the stars as they turned to, they turned red, that night
