Breaking Point
04:45
|

|
This rotten feeling is eating me alive
I have nowhere to go
The loneliness crawls near
Falling in a black void
Anger it grows inside
I am just sick of it all
As there is no joy to feel
A beast ready to be unleashed
There is more than meets the eye
As frustrated as I am
There is no one to scream at
Forced to keep it all inside
I've reached my breaking point
Fuck off
The only thing I feel is hate
Bitter darkness within
A creature I hold under water
Drown it for hours
No matter the resistance
It comes out alive
As frustrated as I am
There is no one to scream at
Forced to keep it all inside
I've reached my breaking point
As frustrated as I am
There is no one to scream at
Forced to keep it all inside
I've reached my breaking point
There is a burning rage I try to quench
But you are the fuel that makes it stronger
How long can this pressure keep rising
As my shield already starts to break
Fuck off

The Machines
04:45
|

The machine screams as it gets into motion
Steel on steel generate a painful roar
The furnace heat slowly starts to burn my skin
Just another day, another day in this life
There is only heat, scrap, dirt, dust and pain
Sweat is the only thing I am allowed to lessen my thirst
I know my world is dying
We all know my world is dying
To make sure I get to live
their life must be the first to give
Have I been here too long
The clockwork rhythm of the machine
they speak to me about death
whispers that call me to act
Trying not to dissociate myself from reality
Resisting their command will be the death of me
I know my world is dying
We all know my world is dying
To make sure I get to live
their life must be the first to give
Their life must be the first to give
Another dead found half burning in the furnace
Another crushed by the hammer instead of steel
Another decapitated by the clockwork wheels
Another accident awaiting to happen
They are the sacrifice for the machine
Their hunger soothed they return to rest
Next time when they speak I will resist
It's their push that I detest
I know my world is dying
We all know my world is dying
To make sure I get to live
Their life must be the first to give
Their life must be the first to give
In the end it controls me

The Dragon Inside
05:06
|
|||
|
In a gaze of yellow
Ancient beyond our time
The voice of fire
A whisper of lies
Or bringer of dawn
Angelic touch
Song of silence
Lullaby of peace
The dragon roars
The dragon inside
The maidens kiss
Makes you do things
You do not wish
End its life
End your suffering
Both of them speak
Lay claim on my soul
My next choice decides how I shall fall
How I shall fall
The monster or sacrifice
With whom shall I side
They are my shadows
That walk with me still
The dragon roars
It is the dragon that roars
The dragon inside
The maidens kiss
Makes you do things
You do not wish
End its life
End your suffering
The dragon inside
Burning rage
The maidens kiss
Enlightment
I embrace the flame
The beast is set free
I embrace the flame
The beast is set free
The dragon inside
The maidens kiss
Makes you do things
You do not wish
End its life
End your suffering

Kingdom
04:22
|

Ill tiding brought along it's pain
There is nothing to gain here
No reason to stay
I'm not hiding but running away
Into the nowhere I find my rest
In nothing I can be my best
In silence I find my strength
Alone I create my kingdom
Into the nowhere I find my rest
In nothing I can be my best
In silence I find my strength
Alone I create my kingdom
The silence is empowering
Everything is all on me
To shape and to create
My reign will be everlasting
To conquer nature alone within my own castle
I have no need for knights
Failure is something I cannot permit
Into the nowhere I find my rest
In nothing I can be my best
In silence I find my strength
Alone I create my kingdom
Into the nowhere I find my rest
In nothing I can be my best
In silence I find my strength
Alone I create my kingdom
I can see you looking from within the shadows
I can hear your breathing from within the darkness
I can sense your presence from within
But no one is there
I am alone
Into the nowhere I find my rest
In nothing I can be my best
In silence I find my strength
Alone I create my kingdom
Into the nowhere I find my rest
In nothing I can be my best
In silence I find my strength
Alone I create my kingdom
My Kingdom became haunted
Ghostly whispers everywhere
Losing my sense of reality
I'm just slowly going fucking insane

Digital Hell
02:55
|
|||
|
Welcome to the world of new reality
Reality that seems to be insanity
Preparing the nation for obliteration
A special pin goes under your skin
We're the ones who carry the scars
Listen what we're about to tell
Total control
Welcome to the digital hell
Welcome to the digital reality
Remember that day when we were all free
Bare the mark of the beast that controls you so well
Obey like a mindless shell
We're the ones who carry the scars
Listen what we're about to tell
Total control
Welcome to the digital hell
All to receive a mark
The mark implant under your skin
Leaves you no single means of defense
Leaves you no single means of defense
Welcome to this new reality
You can't escape this hell
We're the ones who carry the scars
Listen what we're about to tell
Total control
Welcome to the digital hell
We bare the mark, we sold our soul
We have lost control
We have lost control

Hunter
05:12
|
|||
|
No more than a chill in the air
Layers of mist in the dark
Under the cover of night
Only illuminated by the silver light
Paws grace the earth
With serene lightness it stalks
Above it all it is the hunter
The lone wolf is on the prowl
Full of Fury
The Hunter
The Beast
Full of Fury
The Hunter
The Beast
I am the beast above it all
Everything else is beneath me
Nothing more than prey
I am the great wolf
Never able to let its guard down
Any sound may be the hunter
A restless soul unable to find peace
It knows
It is only prey for the beast
Whispers from the darkness
Your pain won't last long
I love to see the light slip away
And snow
Slowly fades to red
Full of Fury
The Hunter
The Beast
Full of Fury
The Hunter
The Beast
I am the beast above it all
Everything else is beneath me
Nothing more than prey
I am
The great wolf
Under the veil of black
I let out a low rumbling growl
Hungering for the next reckless soul
The only thing you may see is a desolate figure
Before I rise above and change
The hunt begins and soon I'll feast on you
I'll feast on you
I'll feast on you
I'll feast on you
I hide away
As the sun breaks the mist dissipates
No longer the king they fear
The roaming monster
The one above the food chain
I am just a man

Your Truth Is A Lie
03:49
|
|||
|
Go down the rabbit hole
With the first evidence shown
You are ready to embrace the truth
Being fed until you fully believe
And push back against the current
You are more than an animal
Question the status quo
And deeper down you will go
And deeper down you will go
False knowledge is to the brain
What smoking is to the lungs
A regular dose of fear
Becoming less than an animal
To put your faith in others
When they keep pouring out the poison
Clouding your judgement
Is a theft of your free will
Why don't they see
The evidence is right there
But I cannot show them
The numbers tell the story
Feed them the first piece
Free them from the lies
That they devour
Now they question the status quo
And deeper down they will go
And deeper down they will go
False knowledge is to the brain
What smoking is to the lungs
A regular dose of fear
Becoming less than an animal
Your truth is a lie
Your truth is a lie
Your truth is a lie
Now what if my right
Was wrong all along
Now what if my right
Was wrong all along
