Biology 03:34
You left us, alone How could you never care This was, your fault Yet you chose to leave instead How weak you are It makes me sick Your failures, should kill you But do you even know How hard, you’ve made life For someone who just got here The struggle, you left, Should not be forgotten And now, my life Has finally found Some purpose, or meaning And you don’t even know I’ve done it all without you I never needed you A broken man, is all you are You left your life, and your blood behind How did you never, care to think Or see how life was going for us Your lack of compassion Has made you worthless And blackened your name To everyone who knew you So now, I’ve grown And I am proving, I don’t need you And I never have I’ve done it all without you I made my dreams come true I never needed you I made my dreams come true I never needed you

This is your final battle. Cages of the kings will rattle. Tyrants will fall, And the poor will rise. You will hear their Horrid cries. Even in the midst of my threat signal, You still deny all principle. Walk this way and You will find This is the end of All of your lies. What would they say If they found you like this? Death and blazing fires, My kingdom has come. Lay down your arms, Cease to resist. For I have come to glory. Now I have won this senseless war In a land of liars and whores. Worthless, fall to your knees and be my slave Maybe now you’ll understand How it feels from here You fell from a land of grace Now you’re washed up, in your place

Mental Pains 03:02
Get Out!!! Get out of my head now you clever monster Painful memories remain, ever longer! Took my time and doubled my pain Yet I can’t seem to get past all your lies! My only hope was, for you to see inside I know that I’m less than what you’ve come to deserve There’s something in my mind that says “Never” Never let go! No! Now its too far gone to matter to me But I still can’t stop caring for you! My only hope was, for you to see inside I know that I’m less than what you’ve come to deserve There’s something in my mind that says “Never” Never let go! No! This hell is nothing but mental pain Why do I still care!!! My only hope was, for you to see inside I know that I’m less than what you’ve come to deserve There’s something in my mind that says “Never” Never let go! No! Mental pains!

Somewhere Beyond the air I breathe What's there And do I still believe Something Can save my tired soul Hoping To outlive this deceit Can I Abandon all these chains And this Prison that I have built Seeking The light beyond this grave Hating The things that I have held Will you tell me what the path I've walked has done to you Or how it tore apart our sanity Can you find yourself beyond the tired shores we've owned And if you do then can you carry me I am trying to Overcome the burden of proving to you The things I've seen Can you tell me that Beyond the veil there's nothing more Show me that you bleed Help me To hide myself again Break me Just so I'm something new Take me I'm just a wound to mend Use me Because I want you to Stand up So you can run away Stand up So you can keep me still Walk out Do what you've said you would Hurt me It's all you know to do If I change myself will you believe my vanity Or will you view it as my veil of faith If I hide some words of truth behind surrender's breath Will you take to heart this empty place I am trying to Overcome the burden of proving to you The things I've seen Can you tell me that Beyond the veil there's nothing more Show me that you bleed This path seems unjustified What have you done to walk where no one knows I can't look into your eyes Too many lies I'm left blind by the smoke Can't you tell me What has happened to us Why won't you leave I'm begging you to stay To prove what is there Beyond all doubt Russell's burden From bitter mouths I am trying to Overcome the burden of proving to you The things I've seen Can you tell me that Beyond the veil there's nothing more Show me that you bleed Forward I will move As I try to grasp all that has brought me here And let me down I cannot forget The way to my release is near When I am done and drowned

The Darkness 03:45
This is my nightmare This is my hell This is my nightmare Welcome to your night This nightmare has begun The darkness has taken over Your life is now mine This is your eternity This crushing inky blackness The silence. The smell The sulfur and the brimstone This crushing fear Welcome to the darkness This is your fault You chose to do this You are a coward And a waste of my time You chose the knife Over your family You chose for us all You chose the knife!! Welcome to the darkness x8 This crushing inky blackness The silence. The smell The sulfur and the brimstone This crushing fear Welcome to the darkness!!
