In the ruins of madness
With the ghost of chance.
There is new hope reborn
in every tragedy
And the world I see bares
A mystery waiting to be revealed
In the age of confusion,
Tears and despair.
Let me sell you a dream of prosperity
In this great illusion.
Our humble intentions
are well concealed.
Pushing back the sky,
Below we lose
Everything tonight.
Let it lie.
Slowly we fall asleep
To find the things we need
To keep alive.
(Then let it die...)
White winter whispered,
She sang to me
How do you take your spirits?
(Loyalty free?)
With every dream
That has turned to dust.
I'm rebuilding my loss
Through elusive trust.
I crawl with weighted breath,
Since the end became much less.
The Skyline returns the moon
to light up anything left.
And what do we know now
Since the human flame has such distaste?
Just Face the mirror
Reflection full
Reflection full of shame.
What comes from below
With morning's eye
Quickly reminds with reasons why.
( I was wrong to think
I'd be immune to these...)
(Death Eaters)
Long walk aftermath,
Smoke begins to clear.
Real remain real,
Fake disappear.
Head on instead
Replace the pain
with Eyes ahead
to the Demise of these days.
With every fall
Angels weep
Death's reminder of
Eternal sleep
Left inside of silence
with ways to avoid
Wishing only violence
again, for more ways to destroy.
Becoming broken, lost and unaware,
sinking deeper and deeper.
Walk away from war!
Death resides below,
I'm still shadowed by
these ghosts I used to know.
(Walk away from death)
I come with weight.
I feel the anchors
pulling me down, no escape.
Starving to breathe,
Poison in my heart
stealing life the from me, set me free.
I'm shadowed by these
ghosts I used to know.
From death below, from death below.
Sowing a rose of obsidian
Within my heart.
Sometimes my haunted visions
are distant and vague.
Down at the base
I'm weak and afraid,
tired and sick of it all.
When I drown in my fears
In the darkest of sorrow
There’s a promise of grace
Under silver grey skies,
And I’m drying my tears
In the blaze of a newlight.
Take me down to
Where this all begins
for me to understand
Where I won’t feel the same to breathe
To fill this hole in my heart
stealing life from me, set me free
with (The vanishing)
(One day we'll be In the shade
of a life to die for
Watching the world through
the eyes of Elysium)
