Where dreams go to die
So here we are again, as we plead upon our knees, this agonizing pain
Spreading like a new disease, where heroes lay to rest
When we watch our idols fall, a revolution call

Now I'm standing in the crossfire
Now I'm raising up my fist
And you'll pay for this

I'll take you there, where castles built will fall
Where dreams go to die and I promise you this

You thought you'd get away, but Karma made its move
The bad things that you've done, will be coming back for you
It's really sad that we're at the end, but my heart won't let me feel
No sympathy or pain for the outcome you've ensued

Now I'm standing in the crossfire
Now I'm raising up my fist
And you'll pay for this

I'll take you there, where castles built will fall
Where dreams go to die and I promise you this
As God as my witness, that your time will finally meet its end
Your dreams will burn and die and you cannot resist

Adapting model state, symmetry property possessed in varying degrees
(Type face that creates, mirror similarities)
A way to rise above the meaning, not to exist just for yourself

I'll take you there, where castles built will fall
Where dreams go to die and I promise you this
As God as my witness, that your time will finally meet its end
Your dreams will burn and die

Spore
Executing realms paralyzing scenes
Mental satisfactions with violent abstractions
Playing in the dark cutting from a glass
No drop of blood emotions are not turning back
A prisoner of war is screaming from the wall
Nothing is alive only cold and dry

I am dwelling in the path seeking for the truth
What only I reach is just a broken soul

Take a look around, in the lost and found, help our fellow man
Screams of agony, final destiny waiting for the fall

Dreams are feeling sick dark pattern in the skin
Blind as you can be, you must retreat from the win

Crawling in your mind, damaging your sight, take me out of darkness to the light

Take a look around, in the lost and found, help our fellow man
Screams of agony, lost eternity waiting for the fall
Final destiny, in an endless sea ride the waves of faith and hope
(alternate) "fading...I'm always fading, what's left of me."

Take a look around, in the lost and found, help our fellow man
Screams of agony, lost eternity waiting for the fall
Final destiny, in an endless sea ride the waves of faith and hope

In this light
I've walked for miles down empty roads, today
Lighting the way the fireflies, unafraid
I try to escape and learn to survive, somehow the rain changed me by surprise
I recognize from the crying sky, the road to nowhere as I follow seems to haunt me

I'll break the chains for you but only to remind me, no preservation no paradise
The pounding of the rain with thunder and its lighting
The storm's reflection like a mirror on my face

Where did it all go wrong, when will it all go right, someday
I've been searchin' for answers all my life, to rise above a jaded world that seemed to haunt me.

I'll break the chains for you but only to remind me, no preservation no paradise

Redemption
Taking what they will feed you
Ingesting lies they claim as true
Reflection, desperation
You pave the path that you tread

Traveling at Light Speed
Manipulation, fueled by Greed
Social Discontent and Hate,
Population regulate

[Chorus i]
Search and you’ll find the answers
To be the change that you want to see
A mind as narrow as the road I walk
Always upright but always wrong
They foresee violation of the law and suicide of remorse

[Spoken:]
Unreflecting human kind, justification for the crime

Reaction against control
The corporate stranglehold
Tear down their walls of fallacy
Be willing to surrender what you are
For what you could become
Altering your destiny

Traveling at Light Speed
Manipulation, fueled by Greed
Social Discontent and Hate,
Population regulate
Evangelize the simple minds
Tithing from the weak and blind
Arrogate through media
Instigate acedia

[Chorus II:]
Search and you’ll find the answers
To be the change that you want to see
Grant the serenity reclaiming honor and dignity
Can’t you see what’s going wrong?
Don’t you feel it growing strong?
Don’t let go, keep holding on
Working forces kneel you down
Authority and power ruling out

[Spoken:]
Mass regimentation
A phenomenon of industrialization
Reaction against control
Striving to attain a common goal

[Chorus III:]
Search and you’ll find the answers
To be the change that you want to see
Grant the serenity reclaiming honor and dignity
A mind as narrow as the road I walk
Always upright but always wrong
Working forces kneel you down
Authority and power ruling out
Always upright but always wrong
Always upright but always wrong
Always upright but always wrong
They foresee violation of the law and suicide of remorse

Vindication
Look around, on your hi-wire down look down, it's a long way to fall
Suicide, the brink of extinct it's over now
The tables have turned on life's little game
No longer the pawns you're feeling the strain
For we are all kings with merit it brings, as we rise to the top once again

As you look to the heavens wondering where you went wrong
Seeing, not always believing the gavel of life coming down

Traces of the past flash before your eyes
Hurdle the bodies that fed you, the narcissist hungers again
Fear and control your battleground, your truth under a shroud
A forced stranglehold, just do what you're told, as we rise to the top once again

As you look to the heavens wondering where you went wrong
Seeing, not always believing the gavel of life coming down

Sometimes a man's word is all that he's got and sometimes just only a name
No more suffocation, my true vindication, ascending from all the remains
This is vindication

Midnight lullaby
				
top

A world without
Voices whisper in the night
Do you hear them calling me
Reflecting faces in the light
What is real and what is fantasy

Nowhere to be found, I can't breathe again
A mother, my lover, my best friend, my best friend
My baby's staring back at me, and now a broken family
Your name now etched in stone, no place to call my home

Your heart is the amber I see in my drag
The smoke your spirit rising I breathe your love
The tickle in my throat, your way of reaching out
Perhaps the creaking of my door
The moonlight glistening the shore

Nowhere to be found, I can't breathe again
A mother, my lover, my best friend, my best friend.
My baby's staring back at me, and now a broken family
Your name now etched in stone, no place to call my home

Nowhere to be found, (I'm looking down on you)
I can't breathe again (or are you looking down on me)
A mother, my lover, my best friend, my best friend.
(are you looking down on me, I really need to know)

My baby's staring back at me, and now a broken family
Your name now etched in stone, no place to call my home

Don't look back
The ignorance of youth, the pawns of corporate greed
The raping of our mother earth, no planting of a seed
A revolution on the brink, distracted masses writhe
Another human born to kill, inherent to survive
Have you seen the vibrant shades of green
Or is your mind a blood red haze which cries and only grieves

Don't look back, I won't be standing here...I'm lost but not afraid
Marching on beyond the sun, you've gotta free your mind you are the master or the slave

The innocence and purity consumes the starving child
The mother's pain filled tears they fall, yet still she bears a smile

Don't look back, I won't be standing here...I'm lost but not afraid
Marching on beyond the sun, you've gotta free your mind you are the master or the slave

You're in a sea of deceit in a body of lies

Don't look back, I won't be standing here...I'm lost but not afraid
Marching on beyond the sun, you've gotta free your mind you are the master or the slave

Magnetize what you conceptualize because your thoughts become things
This is the Law of Attraction
				
top

Fallout
A sudden notion seizing the beginning
Cuts me like a knife, you used to be my valentine
The ocean in the sky, drifting
Swim against the tide, the flowing current in your eyes

And blind through the night while isolated, and on your island
(fall out, fall out, don't hesitate...fall out, fall out, don't hesitate)

Rising, rising from the ashes
A better life tomorrow finds, from a world beneath your blackest eyes

And fight through the night while isolated, and on your island
(fall out, fall out, don't hesitate...fall out, fall out, don't hesitate)

A revolution in disguise, mesmerized by the shadows
Flowing like a mental stream, a seamless laser...beam

A revolution in disguise, mesmerized by the shadows
Flowing like a mental stream, a seamless laser...beam

Open road
Shades of grey were the colors of my soul
Accepted miseries embraced for oh so long

The hands of time sweeping all my dreams away
Lost in a circumstantial maze

Moving on to another day
Searching for a brighter shade of grey

A somber silhouette displays the beauty of a dream
Until I realized your open eyes in front of me

You color my life with everything you do
And this open road only leads me back to you

Moving on to another day
Searching for a better way (a better way)
Seek and you will find the cure a blessing in disguise right before your eyes

Queen of the reich
In the dead of night
She'll come and take you away
Searing beams of light and thunder 
Over blackened plains
She will find her way

Flying high through the night
She will hide your fate
As she takes your soul from under
And the blinding light of the castle fades

There is no escape
It's the ending of your precious life
Your soul slipped away
It belongs to the Queen of the Reich
The Queen of the Reich
Yeah she's coming for you

You're fading away
Your life cast astray
A victim the beast shall obtain
The light will not shine
For you'll die tonight at her shrine
And black is the last thing you'll see

Over and over
Dreams of dying fill your head
It's the sign of the cross
That you'll find ahead

No one will answer
The light is fading away
Captive souls are screaming out in pain

There is no escape
It's the ending of your precious life

Your soul slipped away
It belongs to the Queen of the Reich
You're fading away, No, No, No
The Queen of the Reich
You're slipping away, yeah
The Queen of the Reich

En force
Light tracers follow me farther
Into the depths of unknown
The blackness surrounding the border of hope
We're alone

We plead for the signs of a second chance
In hopes it will stifle the fear
The dying remains of a world gone insane
We are near the end

A course that will lead us through darkness
Prepared by our leaders insist
We mustn't all pray to the shadow of
The iron fist
We enter the void with our eyes straight ahead
The force all around us we feel
The twisted contusions of hatred will finally reveal

Enforcer
Master of nations revealed
Enforcer
The beams from his soul you will feel

Slicing and tearing our way to the gate
A towering fortress of blackened steel
Desolate plains holding dying remains
Heed the call of the master we'll soar to
The edges of time

Light tracers follow me farther
Into the depths of unknown
The blackness surrounding the borders of hope
We're alone
We plead for the signs, give us a second chance
In hopes it will stifle the fear
The battered remains of world gone insane
We are near

Once long ago we had to hide
In the shadows of the land
To keep us away from the crawl
Enforcer's taking hold of us
				
top

Prophecy
Wings of fire, are sailing past the pint of no return
Blinding eyes, from which it hides the key
Seek to rise, begotten are the fools who'll never know
Force will hide the presence that we see

There's no time to run away
A prophecy will make its stay

Course of rage, a never ending fight for the unknown
To justify the formulated scheme
So we find a gleaming light to lead us far beyond
The closing gates of our society

There's no time to run away
A prophecy will make its stay
