Ambience of Autumn Lights became just shadows upon the wall Stories we used to whisper secrets said but never told Awaken in the morrow hung under when solids are liquified Pondering about existence hollow tunes transpose through my head Listening to pointless violence summoning the voice of the dead Wake from the dream to the scene of chaotic screaming Pause through the strife thinking of all that I've left behind Burrowed underneath soil so sweet and full of life Twisting its tendrils choking us brought us all back to life So sick and young a new day has come To thread the fashion of fate over shoulder we turn But we never seem to walk away Petals fall as I taste the way the beauty of the sun colors my face Wake unto the strife to the scene of chaotic screaming Pausing through this life thinking of all that I've left behind Autumn begins to settle in heart beats raining down out destruction Trapped within our seedling state on and on refuse to admit mistake Trapped within this hate of mind turning sour and contrived Wake from the dream to the scene of chaotic screaming Pause through the strife thinking of all that I've left behind Life. Begins. Again. Ambience of autumn elemental disorder change in the water Circle forever cling on to sorrow no more tomorrow Ambience of autumn elemental disorder change in the water Circle forever cling on to sorrow no more tomorrow A world without a halo Standing up right to prove that your alive Evolve your head towards the sacrifice Stomping your feet to prove that you can fight Changing your rights to fuck with your whole life Stomping your feet to prove that your alive Evolve your head to prove that you can fight and you can die Standing up right to prove that your alive Evolve your head towards the sacrifice Stomping your feet to prove that you can fight And you can die!

Green Goliath Bound and damned I loved you then You broke my spark your tearing me apart Backed into the poorest view A pseudo life another mask you hide I've seen this all before like verses from my dreams The coldest place I've never been Incomplete when i met you your shreds and scars make up for what you are Deny what doesn't click Ignore what makes you think And plunge into A world of nothing new Dying eternally Falling internally for you Wasted all my feelings hating you Eternally falling internally for you Wasted all my feelings hating you Arise up from the sea And wrap your arms around me Reign your drugs down on this place And drown us all in our disgrace All because of you that I got this All because of you that I want this Lately I never bleed for you Take it from the truth as I saw it Take it from the noose as I saw it Lately I never believed in you Never fuckin bled for you Awake the green goliath Awake the green god!

Remnants 05:42
REMNANTS Bred and burned discarded we've learned, forever lost in silence Broke the glass removed the past, reveal to me your sicknesses Our world transformed through fire returned Corrupted by your powers Over your head we control All that we see we shall own. Shaking our heads as we all run in dread As the things that we fake are reborn. All that we see we shall own. Shred the light red terror divine, purge the sinners and slaves. Deny accuse morbid abuse, discard your attempts to mislead us. Reflecting on the waters a human-like face An omen of disorder, an end for this race. Rise above the pain we love, of freedom we're reminded. Styled a lie to cover your eye, Slowly shaken This age of man designed to fall, To filthy greedy cowards. Over your heads we control, all that we see we shall own. Shaking our heads as we all run in dread As the things that we've faked are reborn. All that we see we shall own. Start the fight and never resign, waste will never betray. War we choose and on we lose Discard all attempts to mislead us. Burn the bridge and it all comes crashing down around our heads. Fuel for blood so red runs the tides attack the ancient remnants divide. Don't cure the ill eternally still make profit from a kingdom of corpses, You'll change your ways at the end of days. Bred and burned discarded we've learned, forever lost in silence. Broke the glass removed the past, reveal to me your sicknesses. Our world transformed to fire returned Corrupted by your powers. Reflecting on the waters a human-like face An omen of disorder an end for this race.

Experiment 07:39
Experiment Jump into the pit, come right this way dear sir the experiment's begun. Step into the cage right here what damage has been done, Injections will just numb the pain the same for everyone. Brain dead as always another reject cadaver be-gone! Throw them to the dogs! Wipe the smiles from your face, I'm disgusted and appalled at this place. Now you've come to face your fears, I knew this would all end in tears. The process of termination. We begin with slices, incisions to the bare flesh. Pulled open with tweezers, scalpels painting tissues and tongues. Wake him up his nightmare is done, anesthetize another lucky one. Pick open the stitches and spill the ooze the god-given drugs, Infusion with the new test from A to B a mutation we'll see. Deformation in the deep skin, a pattern reminiscent of the plague. Record the progress of degeneration and think of all the money we'll make. Selling out your own DNA his children have seen better fucking days. Do what you gotta do to remain calm and Do what you gotta do to remain sane and Do what you gotta do to remain if that's possible Beasts emerging from the shadowed halls, time reversing emulsifies us all. Tearing feeding on your putrid rotten flesh, pray on scarred knees that your end will be here quick. Creations eat the master and envelope on its rage, taste the venom you deserve for spitting in its face. Crawling up behind that last victims of the mess, Pouring acid from its eyes and painful spit of bliss. Experimental abomination weaving webs of death, I've been saving all the best for last the sickest of the sick. She opened up her bloodied arms extended with a gift, Here is my child I've bore he'll bring about apocalypse!

427 pt I Chapter Zero Blank fear holding you Torn across a different plains of view Spoke to me, softly again Tell me how you're not like them If you remembered me, you'd know that I've never been The holy one As far as i can see, no truth conspiracy I've ripped my ribs out, I'm clean If I could have seen the things you have seen I wish I could have known, no mercy would be shown. Doorways open more ways than one Times and oceans turn men to mice Take my rights and wash away my fears Hold my hands deny all our demands Raise the cup, embrace in my blood Close your eyes, the all-seeing denied Doorways open more ways than one All things broken turn into dust Breaking my bones, shattered and forced to survive cover my mouth as you wait for me to die! Benevolent, facing you defeat pick at the bones right under your feet My enemies lost in my nightmare hurt-less, soulless, chains of apathy I was once their demon of despair Ripped open wounds Time could not repair! Breaking my bones, shattered and forced to survive cover my mouth as you wait for me to die...

427 pt II Blackleaf Gardens I die. Where will I go when I die? We'll I'll tell you where the hell I'd like to be. Where will I go when I die? I've entered the darkest place I've ever been, filled with fossils of my sins. Petrified I've risen well beyond my means, Struck by the darkness holy light. Could these cave paintings be right? guide my hand to blade and march me off to die. Did my time in this earthly rubble, killed more men than I care to trouble. Feel this shrinking noose of guilt tied around my neck, I wage a war on myself. They've put me here in a cell, the padded walls feel like Hell. If I was cured could they even tell. Right here in a frozen world, born to bleed just like me. Stand in line and wait to die, washed away on that dark day. Food for thought or so we thought, pissed away that bitter taste soldiers hands covered in wine. Who's to say they're out of line? Flash of red now your dead, face that facts your maker said. In the ground you keep your lies. Spread the ash in disbelief toss away your empty grief and one of these days we all must depart. What the hell are we fighting for? On and on the Blackleaf grows, up and down in perfect rows. Symmetry is for the dead, know one knows how long we have left so Right here in a frozen world, born to bleed just like me. Stand in line and wait to die, washed away on that dark day. Food for thought or so we thought, pissed away that bitter taste soldiers hands covered in wine. Who's to say they're out of line? Flash of red now your dead, face that facts your maker said. In the ground you keep your lies. Spread the ash in disbelief toss away your empty grief and one of these days we all must depart. The troubles we've had in taming your soul, I don't know where, where else I would go. My life has much to bare, my life is full of woe. The wrath of god they fear, and it has never shown and it will never show! Understand words are said deals are made and don't forget, you own the world but not your soul that belongs to the devils you know! I held his golden axe, lost in fields of blood I relapsed. Turned into this hate machine, murder killing raping. Held this gun up to my head, pulled the trigger as I am dead. Smoking barrels waved goodbye.

Vicious Garden Wade through down too The waters of life Burned in without realizing What you all are worth Head down pick out The finer flaws of what your all about Born to guide the ley lines Reconstruct it all with your mouth Words and sirens tend to wake you Dreaming hoping safe from nothing Look between the lines Look beneath the signs Open up the new And throw out all you knew Find another way to look for better days Change is in the mind And that's where we all hide Broken violent Play through All you didn't do Look between the lines Look beneath the signs Open up the new And throw out all you knew Find another way to look for better days Change is in the mind And that's where we all hide Beats in my head broken pieces All I want is someone to blame Face it nothing ever works out the way it should Took the best of us incandescent betrayers Run as far away as you can And hope you never see Another one of them Run as far away as you can

Chemical 13 04:31
Chemical Thirteen Blood on the floor I hate you so much Like I adore the way you suffer I will not stop until I put this knife in you I will not be satisfied until your life is through Waiting for the perfect time To kiss your sorry ass goodbye And some might say this was our time to finish And some might say memories in your mind diminished us all Inside the prisons we hide Behind the walls built of lies Rattle the cage of thirteen eyes Inside the prisons we hide Behind the walls built of lies Rattle the cage of thirteen eyes Reused abused and denied Chemical thirteen Pump it into my veins Hope it takes away my pain Chemical thirteen You better hope it destroys my brain Blood on the floor I hate you so much Like I adore the way you suffer The perfect view, of all we are The blissful youth Torn apart They're bending your minds Oh look what is this open up Your third eye cyst You're seeing things you know exist Open up the knowledge exists Creature born of disguise Fill your head with lies Creeping over your throne Threw you out of your home They've come to drink your blood And send your kids to war They have destroyed your family And now they question your own sanity!

Visual Echo 09:38
Visual Echo Ancient gods have said to me this is the end of vanity A child's voice is free to say it doesn't have to end this way Whispers from an ancient dream when gods and men Would intervene and change the course of all we've known And kick our leaders from control They've plugged us in and they sold our minds And they held us here and destroyed our kind And it's been this way forever since the dawn of time Look now at the monsters we've become For all we are we and all we've seen the paradise Turned obscene an evil blight has claimed this earth And paralyzed our rebirth They've held us back and installed their god They've held us here and while they numbed our kind It's been this way forever since the dawn of time They've plugged us in and destroyed our minds While they held us here and erased our kind Its been this way forever since the dawn of time They've hooked us up and erased our lives They left us here and they watch us die And it will stay this way forever til everyone has died Ages pass pages bleed the truth of our insanity We led our lives down the gluttons road And let our leaders take control Of all we are and all we've seen the paradise Turned obscene an evil blight has claimed this earth And paralyzed our rebirth Behold the pages said to me this is the age of hypocrisy Visions burn to change all things the truth about our human dreams A child's poem is what we've lost we carry on despite the cost Revolution's begun felt in the hearts and the minds in mouth and thoughts of the masses Evolution's begun felt in the lives in the eyes and heart of the masses Revolution's begun felt in the hearts and the minds in mouth and the thoughts of the masses Evolution's begun felt in the hearts and the minds in the laws of the passive Staring out into this abyss, tell me you never loved anyone more Holding on to times that went amiss tell me you never loved anyone more Tell me you never loved anyone more Staring into this abyss tell me you never loved anyone more
