Like the conqueror You'll take what i love most Ravage and suffer Through flesh, the blood and bone We'll set our sight To conquer Morpheus Consumed by night Oblivious Let the fire Within you rise Within your eyes Let the fire rise Destruction Within you rise Within your eyes Let the destruction rise Wide awake Yet you prepare yourself for nightmare Wide awake Yet you prepare yourself for Tracking your soul Afraid you tread Alone Synapse control Engulfed in the unknown These thoughts are cold Lost aeons ago Encased in gold Ascending from below Let the fire Within you rise Within your eyes Let the fire rise Destruction Within you rise Within your eyes Let the destruction rise Wide awake Yet you prepare yourself for nightmare Wide awake Yet you prepare yourself for Nightmare You cannot escape Wide awake Yet you prepare yourself for nightmare Wide awake Yet you prepare yourself for

Condemned 04:10
There is no Mercy for your soul When we see The wool you wear Over your hair A falsehood to what you are For when we see The teeth that you bare We reveal the pale and the scarred Deepest words Set men to path And pride takes All we have left The thief has yet to Remove the knife To uncover Diminished light To let this whole world falter And give ember breath This ashen empire crumbles Revealing that there's no one left Condemned to this In emptiness we try Yet failure persists for Every existing lie You struggle to hide The damage inside But the ugly bled through the cracks And the seams, they unbind Exposing your mind As you try to keep image in tact Your veil Dripping with blood Slips slowly around your throat Every Act is a torment Of which I choose to invoke Condemned to this In emptiness we try Yet failure persists for Every existing lie Every existing lie To let this whole world falter And give ember breath This ashen empire crumbles Revealing that there's no one left Condemned to this In emptiness we try Yet failure persists for Every existing lie Every existing lie There is no mercy for your soul When we see Every existing lie

Ice & Stone 05:21
With a million thorns the great eclipse wrapped around this bleeding sun Clenching tightly overhead until mankind is undone The frozen air fell through the clouds And creeped across the ground Passing specters of the longest night They begin to surround Is there truly no hope There is no hope Must we embrace the cold Embrace the cold And cold are the coming days when you’ve left this waking life Looking past your own demise, could you see the sun begin to rise? Could the frozen ocean pull you out into the tide Worthlessness On your own Ice and stone Emptiness A man dethroned By ice and stone The daylight is gone Never to return Fire is a distant memory Emptiness Tempting me Constantly Nothingness Torturing Endlessly Patiently Waiting for Death to come Is There No Hope

A tribute To your self loathing Continued The winds keep on blowing The frozen Far behind, distant The chosen Failed in persistence Fighting, clawing, grasping for something I'm Kneeling, crawling, bleeding for nothing We're Running, hiding, fearing what could be When nothing's beyond this wall Death ignites a flame (ignite) Engulfing your faith (you’re gone) These tattered remains (the slain) There are those we could not save (enslaved) Falling under the ice and sinking Regrets, breathless, constantly thinking Remind me to be fearless to what Awaits me beyond this wall Death ignites a flame (ignite) Engulfing your faith (you’re gone) These tattered remains (the slain) One of those we could not save (enslaved) Can you remember the heat Vibrant and glowing beneath All is lost there is no hope We cannot just give up the ghost All shall be fed to the earth We're food to the insects and worms Death ignites a flame Engulfing your faith We cannot be saved We're all bound for the grave This abyss Staring back Whispering Counteract Don't be weak Don't be frail Nothing’s beyond this goddamn wall This wall
5.
Fighting, searching for a meaning Finding nothing when you're bleeding For your god Surely there is no escaping This life was ours no sense in faking It all ends Find out where nirvana lies Right behind your fear and your hellish cries Substance is within Your mortal flesh is showing Prophecy and sin Under the the all unknowing Who could build this race This race of finding nothing Omnipotent disgrace No soul, no faith for crushing In the end we pretend to transcend But your faith is waning Lost is the need to transcend we must bend But we're never breaking Close your eyes, bleed the skies Behold the truth, within your demise Take the hand and transcend You’re gone Renew the bond, discard (the) beyond Your life has no hidden purpose Ice without flame, you have been tamed An empty eclipse with no surface You've lost control, there is no soul Nothing can be predetermined Enter the fight, clench to life tight Death is the only thing certain Close your eyes Bleed the skies Behold the truth Within your demise
