Enchantment
Hallowed land
The last time
Forever failure
Once solemn
Shadowkings
Elusive cure
Yearn for change
Shades of god
Hands of reason
I see your face
Jaded
Faith divides us - death unites us
The rise of denial
True belief
One Second
Say Just Words
Enchantment
Like a fever, fever - inside of me
Like a fever, fever - inside of me

Stand fast, faithful one
See the moon and not the sun but I......
All I need is a simple reminder

Breakdown frail affairs
Turn from the elsuive starts but I......
All I need is a simple reminder

Guilt is feeding, feeding, inside I'm cold

In depth grasp the chains
Struggle as the waters gain but I......
All I need is a simple reminder

Observe the formation fight until the battle's won
But I...... All I need is a simple reminder

There's no rule to say you'll cry alone
Just find the strength to help you carry the load
Reverse the frown and let the power surge
But when alone you cannot resist the urge

Feel it, feel it, like the pain of dying
Feel it, feel it, like the pain of dying

Hold on face to face damaged by the
sad disgrace but I......
All I need is a simple reminder

Twisting the knife in vain end the
grief but whol will gain but I......
All I need is a simple excuse

Hallowed land
You'd love to be so far away
It's not a long way to go, it's gonna end in your pain
Greet open handed stranger
Create the turmoil, you're not sane
I want the last one to go to embers will revive,
So stay

You want to live a life time each and every day

You've struggled before, I swear to do it again
You've told it before till I, until I'm weakened and sore

Seek hallowed land

You'd love to see right through my veins
The pale reflection tells all, predominations sustain
Crawl over land or mountain in
sight the ultimate escape
A silhouette subsiding, enticed unable to relate

You want to live a lifetime each and every day

You've beckoned before, you'll never do it again
You've prayed before who are the prayers for

Begone the fools that lead me - I need not to know
accept reclining spirit I need to endure
You try to live a lifetime each and every day
In this short time of promise, you're a memory......
				
top

The last time
It's a struggle with a failures frown
And it crashes in front of me
I see the clouds divide
Will you stay or try to leave

The time you're looking at through the door
And think to walk right through
I want to ignore
I only wish that it passes soon

I raise a sunken smile
As I serve only the ones who served
What can I achieve
As you steal the air I breathe

A cruel misfortune
Forbidding is to see
When stories may collide
It's a sad state of mind

Hearts beating for the last time
Hearts beating it is a state of mind

Hearts beating for the last time
The peace you cannot find
				
top

Forever failure
You must feel frustration
Cause your mind feels such temptation
And your ways appear a total lack of faith

You may feel elation
At your body's re-creation
And that joy you need, restricted by one thought

Are you forever - loss of purpose in a passive life
Are you forever - pale, regarded as a waste of time

High times are courageous
But in truth they suit no purpose
Induced, reduced, unable and afraid......

Can you feel rejection
And a lack of motivation
And the joy you need restricted and delayed
				
top

Once solemn
Once solemn, the thing I'm leaving alone
Once solemn, the looks that turn one to stone
And I'm learning the highs and the lows of the panic inside
And I'm learning the highs and the lows of the fake promises

Your powers electrify me
Your prowess repels apathy
Your image can turn your soul to stone

Can't find another way
Can't find the words to say......

Unchaining the thing that's holding me down
And it's frustrating, the pressure's getting me down
And it's trying to live with a bad decision every day
It's a fever that's eating away in search for a fast release

Your powers electrify me
Devour the one that's guilty
Your image can turn a soul to stone

Can't find another way
Can't find the words to say......

Your powers electrify me
Devour the one who's guilty
Your prowess repels apathy
Your image can turn a soul to stone

Shadowkings
A spiral movement, the ultimate mystery
Will you show....will you show who you are?

It's the truth that untrue suspicion is
spreading like a disease
Do you know if it is real?

Voices appear inside my brain
Their need, to set me free
Onward they lead before the dawn
Teach me what's right and wrong

Encourage the madness they welcome impurity
I don't know....I don't know....who I am!
Fallen blind to the cruel hysteria that's
constantly challenging
Me, all alone...all alone... can't be real

Voices approve I can't relate
Their need to celebrate
Onward they lead before the dawn
Teach me what's right and wrong

Voices approve, the quest begins
Fuel for the shadowkings
Onward they lead before the dawn
Teach me what's right and wrong
				
top

Elusive cure
Take a pact, hide the fuel that's gathered here
Pale in view a fool resigns and taken over
Skin your pride , it's stripped and taken from you
Buried deep are the souls that are waiting for you

For you and only you, you may attempt to proceed
The sharpest point is aimed at you
Where the pain strikes is clear......

Regret, refrain, I can no longer bear it

Rising ages increase elusive cures
A morla life sacrificed, greed's taken over
Ride to take and the craving's buried deeper
Reaching out grasping arms that are waiting for you

For you and only you, you may attempt to proceed
The sharpest point is aimed at you
Where the pain strikes is clear......

Regret, refrain, I can no longer bear it
				
top

Yearn for change
Approaching a silence, a blur of subsidence

Time may heal all troubles, is that what I've found?
Joy entices all, until death's lonely shroud
But I know it's forever......

Praying for a change

Our lives leading onwards, the essence is stronger

Memories of life drifting further away I must doubt that where
There's a will there's a way......
But I know, it's forever

Life is all the pain we endeavour
				
top

Shades of god
The fire is gone, a time to search and then replace
I'll never know just how the blind can lead the way

They search for faith, it shows the way...it leads the way
The distant smile, banished denial, no more denial

Are you the one who tries to send me to the grave
I cannot know who deals resent who deals the pain

Weak search for faith
A path to take, you tread in vain
				
top

Hands of reason
I speak of people whose game is disguise
The myth of flavour appears with no sign

'Cause I see it coming, like a long lost friend
A temple of rubble, the low and blind betray
Inane, the pleasures that leave a sorry state
You're told of treasures, indulgence cannot wait

but wait for tomorrow and steal some sanity
Insane thoughts are borrowed, unable to repay them back
As I now fall......fall into deprivation
Fall....fallen there's still tomorrow
Love hides the things you'll never know

A lack of reason that makes a mortal man
Untold the treason, the past where it began

'Cause I see horror, horror to think about
Insane thoughts are borrowed, unable to repay them back
As I see the blood, blood on the hands of reason
Blood, bloody the hands that lead me
Love for the ones you cannot know
				
top

I see your face
Coming back today, the pounding thoughts relay
It's a time that's for myself
I'm laying low, strife is gaining slow
A kind of anguish I don't need......

When I see your frown, hurt will put me down
If I could see a light shining
Is this borrowed time maybe a final time
That I can see a light shining

Will you make it slow, pure evil makes it slow
I know you're brandishing the sign
Dare I take a chance? In this circumstance
Or will I leave without a hope
When you seal me fate sorrow turns to hate
If I can see a light shining
Is this borrowed time maybe a final time
That I can see a light shining

What one man makes is there for one to take
A single handed fall from grace
Hearts beating just, beating till the last
A draining feeling's all that I know

When I see your frown, it becomes my frown
If I could see a light shining
Is this borrowed time maybe a final time?
That I can see a light shining
				
top

Jaded
Opaque the dissident establishment
That we all suffer
Refill the porous shell with words that mean so many things

Words mean so many things

The feeling can't avoid you

Stoking the fires of absence
Loss and anguish long departed
Adjust to changes re-arranging, burns in many ways

Pain burns in many ways

The feeling can't avoid you
				
top

Faith divides us - death unites us
Refrain from the way we were
Slain the invincible
Changed are the the ways of man
Fortitude to face the path

[Chorus:]
Vanquish the pain don't want to see it fail
Faith divides us death unites us
Vanquish the pain don't want to seek despair
Faith divides us death unites us

Tears for a hopeless case
Outside is still so vague
Frayed the landscapes of old
Cleared the indelible

[Chorus]

Cannot sleep through darkened skies
Cannot dream until it's over
Cannot sleep through darkened skies
Cannot dream until it's over

[Chorus]

The rise of denial
Ascending from your fallen past
Life it's the same
Attending to a loneliness
For you, never

Through channels of uncertainty
A rise of denial
This sadness is positioning
As fortunes snares lay me down

In a dream despite
The air we breathe, serenity

Grip the dead hands of the last
Detritus invades
Indefinite the consequence
For you endeavour to
Aggravate uncertainty
A rise of denial
This passion wont forgive
And ill fortune tears you down

All that's been ignites
Suppressing me, serenity
				
top

True belief
Wretched will, host of pleasure surreal
Closed the room where the last is buried

Rise or fall at your master's request
You're unable to accept redemption

I don't know about a true belief here
With the 'lost' it's the same as always

All I want is the same, a true belief

You can't wait to become a memory
With the 'weak' it's the same as always

Stand confused lack of comprehension,
Re-aroused by a thought of madness

And I know that the truth is always right
But it's time to search for lies
You're the only I try to save
But the blood spills from your veins

Call counting time till the end
Death's wicked smile never fails
The curse is cast, you've lost the past
Forevermore, a candle burns here no more

I don't know about a century life
When the love of generations die

I can see no good in taking your own life
When any moment death calls...

All I want is the same, A true belief
				
top

One Second
And for one second I lost my head
and for one second, I wished that you were dead
and for one second, you wish that you were here all
alone
Hold back the tears that could fall for me.
And for one second, I lost my breath
and for one second, I cherish what you said
and for one second, it seemed that I was here all
alone
Hold back the tears that could fall for me
And for one second, I understand
and for one second, my life was in your hands
and for one second, you wish that you were here all
alone
Hold back the tears that could fall for me, they fall
alone.

Say Just Words
You get high, with your destructive instinct
You get high, with your corrosive instinct -
Where can I go, to escape your foul mind tricks
You're trying it more, but you will never break me
Cause you presume, the winner's you but that's not
true

So say just words to me, unreal what your hate's
providing
Say just words to me, your talk is always
contradiction
Say just words to me, you won't feel the warmth of
friends around you
You say just words to me, is it true that there's
worth inside,
So say just words to me.

Your designs, all the worse from power craving
Your desires, only where there's fire burning,
I'll show you the way, a pleasure that's for the
taking
You're trying it more, but you won't get satisfaction
Couse you presume the winner is you, but that's not
true
So say just words to me.
