We are delusional To go against mortality Still we fight, love and create As the only creatures In on life's grand secret We sense the pointlessness beyond
There is a void between our hands That drown the sounds of night An arrow laced with liquid darkness For every sungods heart
It has always been right here Like a shadow in our blood It waits for you and me The shadow in our blood
We are delusional From fictional reality To prayers for prosperity Loneliness Can we resist your pale attraction Give in to the dream with open eyes
How will this world within a world live on Another page torn from the book of strangers Who says "I" when all voices fear their own sound And who remembers the hours
It has always been right here Like a shadow in our blood It waits for you and me The shadow in our blood
Here in the barren and still Far from the shores of real Dreams borne beyond borders On weave of thought and want Here were invincible
It has always been right here Like a shadow in our blood It waits for you and me The shadow in our blood
2. Dream Oblivion
He takes a stand And looks his enemy in the eye This goes no further
I have the upper hand This ends on my terms I challenge non-existence Every single day
The end of mind End of freedom End of everything
A most violent event Breaks individuality And turns out your shadow
In devastating light That push against our eye Dance to the bloodsong In dream oblivion
He makes a point Of sticking to the lie
This is the last time I'm now done with this I carry my nothing Every single day
The end of mind End of freedom End of everything
Now with reality on end The fall of all morality Dance to the bloodsong
In devastating light That push against our eye Dance to the bloodsong In dream oblivion
The end of faith End of meaning End of everthing
3. The Fatalist
Eventually they'll come Your name has been called Out for aeons To claim the blood And salvage what remains
For once we've seen the fragile nature Of things behind these windows Where nothing lives And nothing ends
And seen what drives the hopeless In between their closing yellowed walls
The day has come You are the fatalist The day has come You are the fatalist You walk on soil that dreams of blood
How can we fight fatigue? In pre-historic sorrow? When all is preordained The cycle never ends
What once had been an endless realm Of possibility and dream Now laid to waste and ruin Laid to waste again You wash your hands in blood
You squander time We borrow from eternity Is it another lame excuse?
The day has come You are the fatalist The day has come You are the fatalist You walk on soil that dreams of blood
You are the fatalist
If nothing changes Then nothing ends
Your thoughts are broken Your reasoning is flawed The defense is just an act And lies are all you've got
You are the fatalist You are the fatalist
How easy we can see? Defeat behind your argument The fatalistic smile
The day has come You are the fatalist The day has come You are the fatalist You walk on soil that dreams of blood
The day has come The day has come You walk the ground that screams for murder
4. In My Absence
Eyes that meet to say farewell And linger through the sleepless nights A trail of days that end in tears But I can never be there
The rush of hours that never seem to end What life has dealt you can not comprehend I am the absentee
I know you're out there searching tonight I'm right here Another day and I cannot see through your eyes, I'm right here
How could I have known what preceded your own thoughts Wish that I could listen to what only speaks inside Every raging dissonance Each jarring note But I could never be there
How could you think that I would understand When words just go around what the heart truly wants? I am the absentee
I know you're out there searching tonight I'm right here Another day and I cannot see through your eyes, I'm right here
I want to tell you, Of the exploding light How everything is visible Moments before the dark
I am never, never there
I know you're out there searching tonight Another day and I'm not there
Thrust with nails of conflict Anxiety and pain Through spells of anger, confusion and defeat I wish you'd see me here in front of you, But I am not here
I know you're out there searching tonight I'm right here Another day and I cannot see though your eyes
I know your out there, But I'm right here Another day and I cannot see though your eyes, Lead me right
5. The Grandest Accusation
What if you are an island of sorrow Then I'll be the raging sea What if you are the reaching trees Then I'll be the storm that with fire rages
The new loneliness Your name on the door Just like a diagnose For venomous disease
Man is the cemetery for unlived life All for nought The grand accusation
Your face is your name Word and shield Sharp as a curse
Man is the cemetery for unlived life All for nought The grand accusation
You chose rejection Over thoughts of insight You take action From focus on intent And brace for impact Not waiting for the fall
What cries here, cries inside Man is the cemetery of unlived life The grand accusation
What if you were a country of grief With me the invading force What if you were to measure the hollow That captivates and devours you
The new loneliness Your name on the door Just like a diagnose For venomous disease
Man is the cemetery for unlived life All for nought
6. At The Point Of Ignition
Do not hide your sorrow, Or banish it from sight Take it out to burn, Turn the pain against it
In a day, that holds no other What are we? The fuel or the flame? In a life, that hides behind you What are you? The fuel or the flame?
In the proud momentum, Thrust the hand from the start Our fragile fate falls apart
I hear you in my echo, A few steps behind I see you in my shadow, waiting inside
What if we don't question the meaning of it all The answer in our system Bound to kill the spark
The moments so illusive One dream never ends Scorns the doubting nomads That burn another trail
In a day that holds no other What are we? The fuel or the flame? In the life, that hides behind you What are you?
The shine of trembling stars, Out in the distant Curse this lack of site, Into darkness without end
In a day that holds no other What are we? The fuel or the flame? In a life that hides behind you What are you? The fuel or the flame?
In a day that holds no other What are we? In a life that hides behind you What are you? What are you?
7. Her Silent Language
Why do I see her, the never ending nights? Why do I see her, wearing nothing but the dark?
Have you come here to warn me Of what I cannot see You want to tell me something But you do not have the words
I know where you live I can see through your darkness And when you sleep I hear the heart that beats you
Have you come here to warn me Of what I cannot see? You want to tell me something But you do not have the words
Eyes far into the distance A life that does not connect Time played well its parts On the strings that blind us
Encounters in silence Words elude the freeing night Wish I could fathom What is too hard to tell
Her head hangs low In the silence of her room Her head hangs low She takes a bite out of her heart
Have you come here to warn me Of what I cannot see You want to tell me something But you do not have the words
8. Arkhangelsk
Willed by winter's so called frost Fix the in anxieties from grip The frost that burned the honorees Underneath the heavy clouds The lifted sword, the broken shield The hand that drew the final word From the frozen mouth of Arkhangelsk
Let them go, let them burn the world to cinders Let the rats run down Falling through the tungsten skies The burning clouds of Arkhangelsk
To the eye of judgement now What will stand when time of the end (time of the end)?
Center stone, into fire All to nothing and nothing to lose They gather groaning to the souls Of the grinding wheels of Arkhangelsk
With one word, one movement in the fabric Everything dies The storm that sweeps the world away From the frozen plains of Arkhangelsk
Inherit from the morning star What others brought And the land, forgot
Soaring through van allen belts Through blazing stars, through dying suns Collide not now, but carry us Through the burning air of Arkhangelsk
9. I Am The Void
Drink this water again That runs by without memory Where your name is lost Drink and forget yourself This featureless stream That carries your face further on These waters know you It calls you by your one true name
Have you ever noticed The spaces in-between Where life is in recession And agony begins?
I am the call I speak inside of you I am the void That haunts you I am the howl That calls you out I am the void I am the... void!
You rest your weary head On to the underworld And let the silent whispers Guide your waking dreams In time with the pulse Of what is long since gone The beat of the fallen Is cold already in your blood
The machinery of chaos Comes alive in you Chained to the grinding wheel Of forces unseen
I am the call I speak inside of you I am the void That haunts you I am the howl That calls you out I am the void I am the... void! I am the void!
You have always been between another set of walls Outside of which the world is watching down on you Inside the silence speaks Kept close to the endless alibi Never reaching out Never give in
I am the call I speak inside of you I am the void That haunts you I am the howl That calls you out I am the void I am the void
10. Surface The Infinite
It starts below The pile and the burning in the Darkness in the recipe And fire in the soul To paralyze and strangle hold
Disable the design The remnants of reality In our measured time Is torn apart
We carry our fear inside, A space that hold the darkness We stretch our skin around, To cover the abyss
The smirk on our reality At the future we foresee Blood that seeks redemption In endless nights of sin Spades without spears That pierce the blinding sun
We heard from the heralds of grief That nothing remains
We carry our fear inside, A space that hold the darkness We stretch our skin around, To cover the abyss
Breaks into day Upsets the system It's in our nature to bear The hidden to the end
What if this feeling contains the truth? What if our dreams give way to the dogma of old? What if lost desire can be found?
No shelter, no barriers between what's already inside Betrays what the surface holds
We wear our lives On waters and dust Like daemons of the lost Still wrapped in our own confusion, The call of the abyss
We carry our fear inside, A space that hold the darkness We stretch our skin around, To cover the abyss
11. Iridium
Let the horizon lead Onto the ether of the night Draped across the burning heavens Flying homeward like a bird of the soul
Shattered into a million brighter stars Each flare unique and rare Scattered across forever Out from creation's core An end beyond compare Iridium
Now is the time to leave We lie awake, we stand afire At the edge of the world Above a myriad of light Below the mantle of the stars And strangely they fall
Shattered into a million brighter stars Each flare unique and rare Scattered across forever Out from creation's core An end beyond compare Iridium
Shattered into a million brighter stars Each flare unique and rare Scattered across forever Out from creation's core An end beyond compare An end beyond compare Iridium

13. To Where Fires Cannot Feed
[Limited Edition bonus track]
We throw ourselves Like rocks against the heavens To call to us attention And set our sights for higher ground
Weaved within the nervous system Of our planet and the vows we keep The dormant fragments Of self-destructing code
Into the emptiness Where fires cannot feed No way to hold The burden of love alive
We nod at each other from across the open plain grave And go to memories to visit our own lives
We hide in the bodies of greater beings Together as one in the face of endless trials
You carry my life Inside you my only witness Our hands held against In suffering
Into the emptiness Where fires cannot feed No way to hold The burden of love alive
