Birth Of An Exile

Seeking the key to a remedy
Agony haunts each waking day
Stepping upon a web called freedom
Where emotions are pawns
Rising against the social plague
Over the void that you’re holding closer
Entering fear as I exit pain
I live in exile
Seeking the key to an inner peace
Beneath the ruins of something once holy
Morphing our sins into falling rain
To wash away the dust
Breaking away from embodiment
Over the mass that draws me closer
Turning my face away from your sun
I breath in exile
My presence equals absence
Faces that beg for one last wish
We breath below the same sky but nothing feels the same
It ends as soon it started
Refusing to accept defeat
I share a tear and a smile for every dream that bleeds me dry
Soul deception
Judgment is unfair
Spoken truth denied
Last decision
Living under siege
Cursed is he who bites the hand that leads the way
Seeking the key to a remedy
Agony haunts each waking day
Stepping upon a web called freedom
Where emotions are torn
Rising against the social plague
Over the void that you’re holding closer
Entering fear as I exit pain
I live in exile
My presence equals absence
Faces that beg for one last wish
We breath below the same sky but nothing feels the same
It ends as soon it started
Refusing to accept defeat
I share a tear and a smile

Ashes Over Eden
05:24

Thoughts in me feeding on soul
Slowly releasing a breath
Second coming always painful
Time turning black into grey
Same old way
Our passion dims the light
We fly on withered wings in misdirected flights
Never ending trip to nowhere
Agony breeding through fear
Be the servant not the master
Inside a sickening dream
Walk the path of hell
Eden by your side
Your conscience sweeps the ashes out of your clouded sight
Flesh - Rain is coming down
Bone - Lost her sight again
Blood – Never ending lie
Soul - So fragile
Flesh - Rain is coming down
Bone - Lost her sight again
Blood – Never ending lie
Soul – Now I know
Sleeping so peaceful calling out my name
As anger escapes heart I reach out my hand
Thunders come crushing down
Setting fire before my eyes
She hurts – She burns – She dies – This can’t last!!!
Break me open taste my inside
Feel what is shattering me
Stop the bleeding she is calling
Pity that no one can see
Same old way
Our passion dims the light
We fly on withered wings in misdirected flights
Flesh - Rain is coming down
Bone - Lost her sight again
Blood – Never ending lie
Soul - So fragile
Flesh - Rain is coming down
Bone - Lost her sight again
Blood – Never ending lie
Soul – Now I know

Wither

Stains on holy ground
A timeless state of anguish
The seventh path is sealed
In failure’s claws
Shape shifting nightmares
Every truth dies in my own bare hands
Screams from the other side drown in shivers
As the inner fear prevails
Behind the mask of sanity
I realize my weakness
Her breath is leading me
Throughout the living end
Fragments of broken mirrors
Pieces of shattered wishes
The harvest of the soul
Has just began
Shape shifting nightmares
Every truth dies in my own bare hands
Screams from the other side drown in shivers
As the inner fear escapes
Curse on the silence
Burning my wings
Visions embrace me
Cast them away
Follow her as your spirit bleeds (Then you wither)
Realize that you’re just a slave (Now you wither)
Can you feel? Can you believe? (Still you wither)
Deny the breaking of the seal (Now you die)
Curse on the silence
Burning my wings
Visions embrace me
Cast them away
