Through Conflict 03:29
lyrics

Do not be at ease now The messenger has arrived Along with a few guests Revealing a terrible Truth Do not be at ease now "Brings me their heads on a stake They have been traitors to the state" Instead of starting over with a clean slate We keep making the same mistake No matter what they've told you No matter what you've heard This is the truth It’s buried underground Do not be at ease now Prepare the front lines Make yourself useful Make sure you die in the End I require a hundred percent from you You are my eyes in the field, and I'll be watching from afar Do this for me You'll be a hero Mother, don't pray for me Father, you don't need to worry I know where I'm going, I know how this ends I’ll get back to you when I return from War

In Lethargy 03:43
lyrics

We're all going down Down We're all going down Yet we stayed the same We've become slaves of lethargy There is nothing worse Than knowing you didn't Try to be the Best version of yourself Our subconscious urges have been held Back And never will be ours again And I see this is the way it should be This is that way For every single step Towards what you want You have to sacrifice Convenience This is not the end For years we try to find meaning We get lost in the void Lost in our all We get lost in our all Our subconscious urges have been held Back And never will be ours again And I see this is the way it will be This is that way Darkness greets me As I delve deeper into madness We're all going down Down Darkness greets me Don't forget about me Rubble surrounds me Don't forget about me

80 Years of Solitude 03:30
lyrics

For eighty years I’ve been living like this: Weak, full of fear, full of hatred For my fellow man If only I could go back, and change my ways "I'm not like this anymore", I wish I would have said once in my life I’ve tortured my life in a million ways I’ve wasted my time by comparing myself to others Was it worth it in the end? Was it worth it in the end? The paths I’ve selected have led me nowhere Led me nowhere I won't be doing this for a long time So just let me be I don’t want to make the same mistakes But in this final moment, I have nothing to say I have nothing left I had it all, for just a moment in space and time Oh, had I known, that I’d throw it all away I would have listened when you warned me

I do not know how you want me to handle this No excuse, just pain And your desire to be the victim The bitter seasonings of life Born to despise you The bitter seasonings of life Born to despise you And through the eons I've been, I've seen millions And they've told me Why I've become Painless Give me the answer to what I've been looking for Painless Just tell me what's going on Painless Give me the answer to what I've been looking for Painless I don't wanna be in the dark anymore You should not make a victim of yourself anymore You don't have to do this There's little time left Before I snap You ignored all my warnings Now you have to face the rain The sun is almost out The pain is almost gone But I Am still burning up inside It's time to face the facts It's time to face the facts

Stranded in Celestial Realms 04:40
lyrics

I don't think you understand this Corners abandoned live in those pillars of smoke That grow when you're not there, when you're not there I will only say this once: It's like you're not there And everything is transparent Everything is made of glass Everything is made of glass It's like you're not there And everything is transparent And when the sun passes through It's like I'm made of glass too You can't assume that the future can be predicted You only have yourself to blame This is not a mirror, you can't see your reflection Maybe you thought that your life is planned ahead of you Maybe you thought that it is not in your control Stop searching for something that does not exist I warned you about that place made of glass Why did you not ignore the siren song It is too late for this, now I'm gone

Plekto 03:33
lyrics

Our lifetimes could fill a library's worth of pages Thoughts, actions, idle conversation So many things were left unsaid Words separated through paper thin walls No one has the courage to tear them apart Words separated through paper thin walls No one has the courage to tear them apart All those nights of worrying and hurting Were replaced by years of not caring So we choose to make our own kingdoms And live in solitude Instead of looking for solutions We place the blame elsewhere There cannot be any control over me, All this is drowning me endlessly And all the consequences have caught up with me I'm out of excuses Words separated through paper thin walls No one has the courage to tear them apart Words separated through paper thin walls No one has the courage to tear them apart All those nights of worrying and hurting Were replaced by years of not caring We are long gone from feeling for others We only feel the wind blowing through our hollow shells

The Narcissist 03:54
lyrics

Concluding all loose ends Opens up the path to transformation Seeing the problems fade away Changes a person in ways unseen Your worries seem to not matter at all I won't be the beacon of regret any longer We aren't so different after all Much to my surprise, I see I haven't lost anything at all The cycles will repeat, if you don't cut them from the source For it to go away, you need to follow the path that you see Concluding all loose ends Opens up the path to transformation Seeing the problems fade away Changes a person in ways unseen Your worries seem to not matter at all And I won't be the one that lost all motivation And I wish I didn't have to do this If you had only focused your mind Just for this one time When did you become all about yourself When did this happen We aren't so different, after all With my hands around your throat Don't leave me hanging I am waiting for your next move Patiently watching you be Come on now, don't leave me hanging Before this day is over I will extract what's mine I will take it back Take it back

Remnants 04:26
lyrics
buy track
We might not breathe but keep existing In flesh we'll vanish but we stay by mind We're not racing but we're finishing last Forever lost in timeless conflict Don't waste this time Cause you get no retries Don't think that this is a permanent marking It's temporary And there's no going back Make no mistake, By the time we're all gone for good When all the planets have turned to dust No one will remember who you were And what you've done To whom it may concern: The world needs to change Outdated views, outdated expectations Remnants of the past remain This is a constant, it will remain the same Yeah I thought that we were past this point, but it seems we’re falling apart We’ve come to drop progress in favor of stagnation Pictures of an uncertain future Cover up our imperfections We prefer to bury our head in the sand Opting to believe in a lie, that life is not slipping by Only in hindsight you keep on wishing That you had done things differently, eah By the time we're all gone for good When all the planets have turned to dust No one will remember who you were And what you've done Your truth is forever hidden Behind your false promises Irretrievable although existing Your truth never forgotten
