Spectrum 03:45
This existence is Our only chance The fragility of A heart of glass Discord, disarray Between moments of silence There are songs of joy There are songs of joy Will we finally see The light at the end of our Tragedies Within our flawed existence? With hands gripped on tightly To comfort and safety Will we let it go? Here's hoping With our self pride Can we save ourselves? Can we acclimate To our self-destruction? I await the day We break our chains Lend me your voices To make a change The failure of man Is in our hands The failure of man Is in our hands Will we finally see The light at the end of our Tragedies Within our flawed existence? With hands gripped on tightly To comfort and safety Will we let it go? Here's hoping With our self pride Can we save ourselves? Can we acclimate To our self-destruction? The failure of man Is in our hands The failure of man Is in our hands Will we finally see The light at the end of our Tragedies Within our flawed existence? With hands gripped on tightly To comfort and safety Will we let it go? Here's hoping The failure of man Is in our hands The failure of man Is in our hands The failure of man Is in our hands The failure of man Is in our hands

Follower 03:47
One blink, One blink is all you need To miss Everything How time flies by Right before our eyes She said "I'm here, I'm always with you" That was so long ago She said "I'm here, You know where to find me" But you no longer show Anymore. I've lost my way I have lost my home. Everything I did Was for us Anything you wanted I did it for you. What did that leave me? Take a look From inside, See my world of disgust. Weary bones, tired eyes And empty bottles. I have but one Follower On my own Who keeps me up Late at night. Though by my side Day after day, I find no solace In your company. I'd give anything To be set free. Set me free. I can no longer muster The strength To carry on. Bear witness to the Failing of my senses As I'm reduced to Nothing but blood and Bones enclosed in Hessian skin. There's nothing left For me to give, Nothing left for me to Hold onto. I'll learn to live Without you. With this burden. I'll learn to move on Without you.

Oracle 04:12
From sands of famine, To concrete paradise. We all burn Under the same sun, Together we breathe In the toxicity. Yet still we're killing For land to die in. Our insatiable Hunger for more Leaves the ones in need Withered down to bones. A storm from the west Swept up by the winds, And set in its wake The new world. The weight of your pocket Has no value to soul, There's broken foundations In a house made of gold. Bridge the gap Across this divide. Dancing in black rain, It permeates. The walls of this home Are crumbling down. Collapse. Until all is dust. The weight of your pocket Has no value to soul, There's broken foundations In a house made of gold. Bridge the gap Across this divide. The walls of this home Are crumbling down. Collapse. Until all is dust. The weight of your pocket Has no value to soul, There's broken foundations In a house made of gold. Bridge the gap Across this divide.

Divide 03:34
I've been staring at the stars, Thinking to myself. What is there to gain from all of this? Out of darkness show me the light ahead. We are the lost and the damned Assimilated to propaganda. Constructs to keep us within their control. And so it was and so it goes, To venture blindly in this world unknown. This is all I have left that I can hold onto. We are the children screaming, "Save us from ourselves." Oh Oracle, can you Guide my trembling hands? Don't lose sight of whats In front of you, Or let time Take control of you. You are here now, You're the king of today, So leave our tomorrow For the grave. All our lives Aspire to bloom. Existence mitigated As death looms. We are the children screaming, "Save us from ourselves". We are the sleepless, dreaming What's beyond this land. Running scared of what's to become You've forgotten how to breathe. Oh Oracle, can you Guide my trembling hands? All of our lives Aspire to bloom. Assimilated, And mitigated As death Looms. We are the children screaming, "Save us from ourselves." We are the sleepless, dreaming What's beyond this land. Running scared of what's to become You've forgotten how to breathe. Oh Oracle, can you Guide my trembling hands?

Masquerade 03:31
Running from my past transgressions Hands drenched in sin Struggling to find my words and Where to begin Would you grace me with your presence? Can I be atoned? There has to be another way To live on my own A reason to feel A reason to breathe All that I need to believe Now I'm beginning to understand What I've become, what I have done No longer bound by your False sense of virtue And everything you took for granted All the days, all the time Every mistake you fault as mine All the blood, the sweat, the tears I've left it all behind Upon this cross I'm left to bleed Grant me the strength to be set free A reason to feel A reason to breathe All that I need to Become what you always Wanted from me, am I All that you need to believe? My crown of thorns for all to see Grant me the strength to be set free Try to let it go Leave me on my own Try to let it go Leave me on my own A reason to feel A reason to breathe All that I need to Become what you always Wanted from me, am I All that you need to believe? Unbound truths bleed through palms Your actions speak louder than words Relinquish your soul to The doctrines set by a false God A reason to feel A reason to breathe All that I need to Become what you always Wanted from me All that I need to (be free) A reason to feel A reason to breathe All that we need to believe My crown of thorns for all to see Grant me the strength to be set free Left to bleed Grant me strength I will be Soon set free
