The noose tightens as your world crumbles, your vile hatred destroys within. Spineless words are all that compels you, soaked in your sorrow and sin. You will suffer, Like the others, Kick the stool with the stories you spin. Misinformation running rampant, We can no longer fucking pretend. You will fall to your knees, Accept this defeat. There is no going back, You can no longer pretend. Fall to your knees, Accept this defeat. There is no going back, You can no longer pretend. Every single second you fight this, It’s clear that you are deceived. Another absent-minded fool, These will be your last words. You will suffer, Like the others, Kick the stool with the stories you spin. Misinformation running rampant, We can no longer fucking pretend. You will fall to your knees, Accept this defeat. There is no going back, You can no longer pretend. Fall to your knees, Accept this defeat. There is no going back, You can no longer pretend. You will suffer like the others, Drown in ruin.

Ritual 03:33
Douse the pyre, rejoice in flame, Everything has it’s time burn, a ritual of desire, Now burn with the flame, did you think turn away? Did you think this is something to escape? There’s nothing left, rejoice in the flame We are the flame that’s inside you, it is the pain that you seek, We are the constant reminder, that there’s no escape, All consuming fire, burning through every moment we are bound to this ritual. Just let it burn, there’s only so much you can take of this torture So, torn and twisted up, fuel for the flame. You’ll never see what this has done to you unless you face up to the fire, As everything burns, rejoice in the flame. All consuming fire, burning through every moment we are bound to this ritual. We’re bound to this ritual, so light that torch for the flame that’s within us all. Just let it burn. There’s no escape.

Collapse 04:26
Forever betrayed, we stand at the edge, Ourselves are to blame, there’s no turning back. We buy into this madness; waste every resource and remain mindless. We stand and watch the world decay. Living a lie as we’re wasting away. There’s no measure of control, No concept of what we hold. We’ve bled our future dry, and there’s no one else left to blame. In this mindless paradigm, We can only decline. Our future’s being sold, by the hands of greed. But what is the real cost? Watch as we all collapse, I tell you that we’ve lost our way, Under the dying sun, Watch as we all collapse. Sedated masses swallow headlines over and over again. So consumed in the mundane, there’s no way for us to maintain. This vicious cycle is, spinning out of control. We’re left dead behind the eyes and there’s no one else left to blame. Staring at the end, a future obsolete. We’re only living to consume, ourselves.

I can see it in the whites of your eyes, not an ounce of hope or the will to survive, I can see what lies beneath, a corrupted soul begging on your knees, Contempt, Deceit, Another generation, disbelief. I can see it in the whites of your eyes, you’ve lost all hope, never believe your fucking lies. You’ll never see the truth, all consciousness has been removed. You’ll never see the truth, in this culture of lies. Do you believe in all that you see? Living life to deceive, just another snake tongued hypocrite. Culture of lies You shape the narrative, Indoctrinate the weakest minds. You’ll never see the truth, all consciousness has been removed. You’ll never see the truth, in this culture of lies. Do you believe in all that you see? Living life to deceive, just another snake tongued hypocrite. Culture of lies. Open your eyes to this culture of lies Dehumanising vultures, stripping away til we’re left with nothing.

In the Wake 03:47
See through the masquerade, I can’t believe what’s in front of me, Vivid deception becomes flesh and bone, You’re only mirroring your internal lies. Is there no end to this, waking eternity? Carve out my eyes if this is truth I see, then keep me blind. There will always be a price to pay, suffering this reality. There’s a world at your fingertips, a mind of your own but got nothing to say. Remain buried thin the neon glow of your apathy. Watch as another is laid to waste, as you’re failing to see the warning signs, Is there no end to this, waking eternity? Is there no end to this, my tired eyes have seen enough. Put me out of my misery, a fate decided. Carve out my eyes. Caught in the wake of disparity, Caught in the wake of this masquerade. (A lucid illusion) Carve out my eyes if this is truth I see, then keep me blind.

Senseless 03:43
I see your blind hatred infects the world, You kept it buried deep, but now you’ll burn. Pushing through your own agenda, you’re words are nothing more than a curse. Tighten the screws in this twisted game we all lose. Manufacture another distraction, to hide your actions Cower before your decimation. There will be no more deprivation, Rising hatred grows, the face of degradation You’ll fall, now reap what you sow There’s no escape. Did you really think you’d get away? Hidden behind your cloak and dagger, disregard the lives you shattered, now You’re left to die here alone, a consequence from the words you spoke. Cower before your decimation. There will be no more deprivation, Rising hatred grows, the face of degradation, You’ll fall, now reap what you sow You prey on fear to try and divide us. Your actions just feed the violence. You prey on fear to try and divide us. Your actions now unite us. There’s no escape, you’ll pay the price. Now reap what you sow.

Watch as the light begins to fade away, Return to dust, Nothing is sacred as we circle the sun, Return to dust, Is there a purpose to all of what we know, Return to dust, Drifting through the infinite alone, Return to dust, Sinking to the depths of the unknown, Return to dust, Is there a purpose to all of what we know, Return to dust.
8.
Suffocate 02:55
As light begins to fade we are swept away, Exist alone, so take your final breath, Infinite we drown in this darkness, Nothing is sacred as we circle the sun. Is there a purpose to all we know or are we here on coincidence alone? Is there a purpose to all we’ve lost? The silence suffocates, we’ll return to find there’s no way Nothing will save our souls, we will return to dust. Ripping apart, time frays in the end. There’s nothing left to save our souls, Imprisoned in death, Is there a purpose to all we’ve lost? The silence suffocates, we’ll return to find there’s no way Nothing will save our souls, we will return to dust. The silence suffocates, nothing will save our souls, We take our final breath, losing all sense of hope, There’s nothing left, as we return to dust.
9.
Parasite 03:48
Feed on what lies beneath, your virus spreads and it swells in me. Burrowing under the skin and bone, devouring every part of the soul. This ends here, you fucking parasite. A malevolent plague, that’s consumed us all, There’s nothing left to give, look at what you’ve done. Look at what you’ve become. Bleeding out the life, feeding on our fucking misery. Parasite.
10.
Isolation 04:41
Carry the weight of the conflict inside, a constant battle you can no longer fight. Fractured thoughts twist and consume and devour what little is left of you. Corrupted, Deceived. Your mask covers what lies underneath Suffering through self-deprecation. As the darkness, pulls you under, Descending you lose control. To the darkness you surrender, Know that you’re not in this alone. Tormented, Besieged. A mind that’s riddled with disease. Crippling under vivid delusions, with no hope of you letting them go, Living in nothing but pain, a life of isolation, Detached from the heart and locked in your mind, you’re slowly fading away. With your last bit of strength reach for the light. A life lost in isolation. As the darkness, pulls you under, Descending you lose control. To the darkness you surrender, Know that you’re not in this alone.
