Corrode, Encompass the earth Drown out the light and shatter the sun Devour, Drain this husk of all life Blacken the soil as the skies bleed dry Engulf, consume, corrode

Endless Wake 05:35
Breathing in, breathing out Breathing in, breathing out As my days begin to slowly fade, The youth I once had slips away My health and warmth deteriorate No longer can I appreciate My life Let me end before I fall End my life on my own terms This very decision I have earned Let the world remember me And you may remember me as a coward Or my death will be a topic of shame And people may tell you I was twisted, But all I really wanted was to die with dignity Was to die with dignity I breathe the air My eyes close, yet I smile Tears of memories sprinkle across my face Goodbye, world Breathing in, breathing out Breathing in breathing out I breathe the air My eyes close, yet I smile Tears of memories sprinkle across my face Goodbye world I breathe the air My eyes close, yet I smile Tears of memories sprinkle across my face Goodbye world I dream of an endless wake For this world is but my own to take As you watch me deteriorate I dream of final sweet release I breathe the air And my eyes close Watch me fall Until I am Nothing more Than away

The Cold 04:10
Crawling through the dirt again Searching for winter’s end This endless war cannot be won This world is what I have become Lifetime laid to ruin Left out in the cold Searing ice of contemplation My skin, it breathes an endless lust To feel the warmth of day again As rain falls through darkened skies I find myself here again Where the bitter winds caress my broken soul And these clouds cry a thousand tears As they leave me here in the cold Torn asunder by the maelstrom In frigid gusts and shades of black, Night will never end So long as I remain Hope has become a distant memory Yet its luxury taunts me every day And incandescence in the opacity Leading me further from a saving grace Crawling through the dirt again Searching for winter’s end This endless war cannot be won This world is what I have become Lifetime laid to ruin Left out in the cold Searing ice of contemplation My skin, it breathes an endless lust To feel the warmth of day again Now my body in this stranglehold Suffocated by thermal decay Lies helplessly as the moon grows old And still I yearn for death’s grip to release me If even for one day

Haunted Eyes 05:12
Another restless night, haunted by the echoes of her screams My mind forever tainted with the harsh memories And it was you my father, with your hands around her throat A release to your anger, an assault unprovoked And your hands have left me scarred As I witnessed the blood drip to the floor My innocence was robbed from me I was not pure anymore The memories have forever stained my fragile mind Mother I cry for you If I avenge all the things he’s done Am I able to rest again Must I slaughter my very own blood To remove this darkness from within I cannot sleep with this insomnia Haunted by her cries I cannot sleep with this insomnia Justice to be served with a knife If vengeance is a cure to my madness Will I be filled with overwhelming pain Father I swear there’s no mercy tonight Your time has come to burn For years of pain I was forced to endure Your death is my release The rain, it falls Icy streams of desperation call As it drowns out the sun The shade of night corrodes my soul The rain, it falls Icy streams of desperation call Now my eyes forever black, I will embrace my fall I am the cloud thundering Preventing the sunlight from shining I am devoid I am unable to be cured Watch me deteriorate I still awake at night Haunted by my father’s presence His voice I hear in mine Memories feast on my insides Watch me deteriorate

The lands left mutilated At the hands of society The water, rich and sweet Now stained by impurity Beneath the sky is a thick layer of smoke That masks the very earth And we wonder why our world is dying So, we must ask ourselves What do we really need to survive? How much more must our soil endure Before we are all satisfied? War has left its mark with radiation Nuclear, infectious air Power in wealth, blood for oil To make the debts disappear I dream of a world where the green of the trees remain Untouched by the toxic fingers of the human race We drain the life out of this earth in which we live We are the disease, the parasites that make the oceans bleed So, take a moment to reflect on what we are Are we satisfied by what we've become Or have we wandered afar? Oh, I dream of a world where the green of the trees remain, And where the media’s twisted views Stop feeding us with false knowledge (Interlude) When will we see the day? Will my dreams become reality? Will we fall into decay Until nothing remains? I dream of a world where the green of the trees remain Untouched by the toxic fingers of the human race I fear, I fear I fear it is too late I fear our hope has wandered afar

Have you ever felt so alone, Unable to escape depressions lonely throes? I’ve been there I know how you feel And it feels like the light inside, Everything you’ve worked for has suddenly died Take my hand, I know the shadows cloud around With the air so thick, you feel like you will drown But there is always a glimmer of hope, though it may not be seen, you must hold on just for me Because I need you, I really need you The thought of life without you isn’t worth living I scream aloud at the clouds above ‘Give her a chance for me!’ No response, no answers Just the rain that pours down on me She is thin, and wearing out, neglected health, so full of fucking doubt No one around her seems to care Just another reason why life is so unfair I’m trying to show you things can change Happiness overthrows anxieties chains But I love you and always will We can get through these tough times still I scream aloud at the clouds above ‘Give her a chance for me!’ No response, no answers Just the rain that pours down on me As she climbs onto the wooden chair, And places the ropes upon her neck One final step, a life wasted away The clouds will cry for an eternity Heaven or hell; whoever will answer I want you to know that I will not let this go I prayed for love, I prayed for trust I prayed for the power to save her from the dust! I scream aloud at the clouds above ‘Give her a chance for me!’ No response, no answers Just the rain that pours down on me I saw life in your haunted eyes While the others remained so blind And as these years grow colder Your lifeless face grows older Endless nights awake, searching for answers Praying for hope, my desperation But all that failed, as I saw you waste away And corrode
