Something Got Out

Something got out
We opened up the doorway to end
Something got out
(and now) We wander through the darkness that we made
Something got out
All the world turned red and grey, there's nothing left
Something got out
The lights are going down, all hope is gone
Something got out
The circle opens on the end
Darkness manifests
We hear the chimes from the other side
They don't relent
Was is arrogance, or ignorance
That drove us mad
We peered behind the door
And now it's all gone black
We saw the nothingness
That swallowed all our screams
And choked on suffering
We earned for all our sins
Our prayers for the light
Were answered with nightmares
We cracked open the door
Something got out
We opened up the doorway to end
Something got out
(and now) We wander through the darkness that we made
Something got out
All the world turned red and grey, there's nothing left
Something got out
The lights are going down, all hope is gone
Something got out
Oozing from the blackness of
The spaces in between
A monster we did not create
A truth we can't believe
Indifferent to our feeble cries
Our hopeless requiem
It has come through the door
Something got out
We opened up the doorway to end
Something got out
(and now) We wander through the darkness that we made
Something got out
All the world turned red and grey, there's nothing left
Something got out
The lights are going down, all hope is gone
Something got out
RIP
TEAR
Something got out
We opened up the doorway to end
Something got out
(and now) We wander through the darkness that we made
Something got out
All the world turned red and grey, there's nothing left
Something got out
The lights are going down, all hope is gone
Something got out
SOMETHING GOT OUT

While You Slept
05:16
|
|||
Hidden in shadows
Faceless and vulpine
Lurking, unmoving
Idol of entropy
Destruction in the dark
Violence infects your dreams
Hold on to something
Hold out for reprieve
Breathe in and breathe out
Waiting in torment
Howling a desperate plea,
"Won't somebody please save me?"
While you slept
You had it all
You didn't even know
While you were
So far away
You couldn't feel the pain
In your dreams it comes alive
Break down in terror
Succumb to madness
Spiral, spiral
Sleep through the burning
Dreams can't save you now
While you slept
You had it all
You didn't even know
While you were
So far away
You couldn't feel the pain
In your dreams it comes alive

Something... Happened...
05:38
|
|||
Wake up
Ashen skies
Lost time
Lost time
What is done, is done, is done
Burning air
New scars
Dead eyes
Strange stars
Called to flame, dark new day
Endless
Hunger
I can't
Remember
Something... happened...
Something...
Happened...
Broken
Pieces
Fragments
Freezing
Scrape the inside, tear out my eyes
Hellish
Haunting
What have
I done
Something... happened...
Something...
Happened...
Blood all over
Wide eyes slumber
The heart must wander
Pull me under
Walking nightmares
Living despair
Where was I
When I was gone
Something...
Happened...

Not Even Ghosts
03:27
|
|||
Outside a hush has fallen
Cursing this silent land
So still and nothing moving
In husks of homes abandoned
The dust returns to dust
Returns to dust
Returns
Crumbling bones and empty streets
Fossils of arrogance
Feel just the sting of rising smoke
Detritus of resistance
No love was left behind
No hope was left to find
No love was left behind
No hope was left
(Not even ghosts)
Not even ghosts
(Not even ghosts)
Will haunt this place
(Not even ghosts)
Not even ghosts
(Not even ghosts)
Will linger here
(Not even ghosts)
Not even ghosts
(Not even ghosts)
Survive the end
(Not even ghosts)
Not even ghosts
(Not even ghosts)
You'll find no aid or succor here
No brash gunslinger's scream
No mourners to remember
This vigil of unmaking
Our bodies rot away
The dying light will fade
All progress we have made
Nothing will remain
(Not even ghosts)
Not even ghosts
(Not even ghosts)
Will haunt this place
(Not even ghosts)
Not even ghosts
(Not even ghosts)
Will linger here
(Not even ghosts)
Not even ghosts
(Not even ghosts)
Survive the end
(Not even ghosts)
Not even ghosts
(Not even ghosts)

Wandering
Until the end of time
Toiling in the wastes
In search of holy light
Desolate
This ocean of dust
Behind the wall of flame
Where nothing ever grows
An endless search
To see before the end
If the water still flows
Are we holding on to hope
And ask one draught
Of long forgotten sights
One taste of old times
Was a dead man's lies
Watching repeat
Vicious memories
A hopeless filth
That we can't wash clean
Naked, adrift
A ship lost at sea
Laid out before
This bleak mockery
No signs of life
No sanguine sounds
Only echoes and dust
In these blasted lands
Stalking this trail
Where destruction led
We see the truth
Blackened is the end
On I wait
My whole lifetime
Searching in
The falling sky
Somewhere out there
We may find
Another chance
Another time
I am not
What I am
Or what I was
What has been
Somewhere in
These barren miles
I'll find myself
I'll find myself
Shadows rise
And blot out the stars
This inhuman place
Makes human monsters
Our lords of decline
Will at last decay
These foolish delights
We have lost our way
On I wait
My whole lifetime
Searching in
The falling sky
Somewhere out there
We may find
Another chance
Another time
I am not
What I am
Or what I was
What has been
Somewhere in
These barren miles
I'll find myself
I'll find myself

Sometimes Dead Is Better
05:25
|
|||
Madness has fueled this hunger
They've clawed back to life
All the graves are freshly vacant
They shamble in the moonless night
Their corpses, black and bloated
Ignorant to their demise
They stare, harsh and soulless
With unforgiving eyes
They should have stayed buried
The dead rise up from the Earth
The same faces all returning
Sometimes, dead is better
The sleepers have awoken
A broken covenant
Servile to hidden masters
A flood of revenants
Unsatisfyingly devour
Prophets of the unmade
The end will not be painless
The living can't be saved
They should have stayed buried
The dead rise up from the Earth
The same faces all returning
Sometimes, dead is better
Some long forgotten meaning
Some feeling you can't shake
Their purpose here is judgment
They are a debt repaid
They should have stayed buried
The dead rise up from the Earth
The same faces all returning
Sometimes, dead is better

I See Through New Eyes
04:05
|
|||
Dawn breaks
Enlightening
Everything repeats
Crawl inside
Come back to life
Succumb to destiny
Revive the signs
See through new eyes
Words you cannot speak
Penitent
A new repent
Blind me
Plunge in deep
Take my life away
Recede
Return to me
The light the sun betrays
Leaf and stone
And broken bones
The lies you want to hear
The familiar lulls
The rituals
I see it all so clear
Waiting
Desperately
Find me in a dream
Time remains
On borrowed faith
Do the roses ever sing?
An empty room
A mind consumed
The hardest face to read
Breaking through
Accept the truth
Blind me
Plunge in deep
Take my life away
Recede
Return to me
The light the sun betrays
Leaf and stone
And broken bones
The lies you want to hear
The familiar lulls
The rituals
I see it all so clear

Scream Yourself Awake
03:07
|
|||
Paralyzed
Petrified
Cold fear with no release
Nightmares that never cease
Pulled behind
The walls of time
What does your demon see
In seething mockery
Drowned in cold sweat
Frozen solid
You better pray
You scream yourself awake
Helplessly
Your body runs in place
Trapped in dreams
That are filled with hate
It isn't safe
Scream yourself awake
Bloodshot eyes
Won't open wide
You've seen the Yellow Sign
You can't escape your mind
Terrified
Of what the darkness hides
Monsters lurk below
Things you could never know
End the visions
Shock the system
You better pray
You scream yourself awake
Helplessly
Your body runs in place
Trapped in dreams
That are filled with hate
It isn't safe
Scream yourself awake

A Door To Nowhere
06:12
|
|||
At the end of a crumbling road
Battered feet are running home
Tasting blood and taking sides
Letting go to see the light
Locked in false reality
Addicted to the spiraling
Warmed by the familiar daze
Ignited blaze, burning embrace
Break free
From the need
Coming back to life
Turn the key
Awakening
What's on the other side
A shattered core
A timeless war
Sins all laid bare
Praying for
An unfound door
To open somewhere
The illusions start to fall away
Images we can't explain
We know the truth, it's deep inside
Corrupted by a broken mind
Remembering the promises
The jagged shards no longer fit
The stand will come before the wind
The wheel spins around again
Break free
From the need
Coming back to life
Turn the key
Awakening
What's on the other side
A shattered core
A timeless war
Sins all laid bare
Praying for
An unfound door
To open somewhere
[My first thought was, he lied in every word,
That hoary cripple, with malicious eye
Askance to watch the working of his lie
On mine, and mouth scarce able to afford
Suppression of the glee, that pursed and scored
Its edge, at one more victim gained thereby.
What else should he be set for, with his staff?
What, save to waylay with his lies, ensnare
All travellers who might find him posted there,
And ask the road? I guessed what skull-like laugh
Would break, what crutch 'gin write my epitaph
For pastime in the dusty thoroughfare]
Beyond the path, I can see the end
But will never know what it meant
One moment knelled the woe of years
I have come, I am here
Break free
From the need
Coming back to life
Turn the key
Awakening
What's on the other side
A shattered core
A timeless war
Sins all laid bare
Praying for
An unfound door
To open somewhere
