TRANQUILITY IN DESOLATION At last, the echoing voices subside for just a brief moment Commence all the intentions to lessen mental severity The pressure intensifies anxiety Visual distractions distorting reality Seeking shelter from all obscurity From myself! [solo] Spiraling distress Reap repercussions of existence Haunted by dreams Made into reality I cannot escape Trapped in a corner Hiding from the heinous illusion Utopia established Tranquility in desolation In darkness the truth is enlightened Reveal my obstructions The truth is I’m standing alone In desolation Heartbroken yet again I lack faith in humanity Emptiness in promises I disdain your existence Being defined, shaped and molded by animosity Who am I, what I’ve become, what I am doing I run away to save myself from persecution I find my peace in reckoning my intentions

BEHIND DECEITFUL EYES This fairytale of truth is spewing out from your bowels Your words are lacking worth like a dead dog hanging on a tree Your eyes show no emotion, a dead stare of treachery Assuming this form to cover a perpetual state of misery Serpents tongue! In defiance of honesty, revelation of intentions Tendencies manifest eventually Exposing; shedding light to darkened voices Infiltrate yourself by your own delusions Self made hate, self destructive character And now the inventions of the one that cry wolf Squirming in shame you’re a king of all fools Dismay portrayed behind curtains of lies Blanketing truth by untruth that’s devised A plague in this age that’s affecting all hope Victims fall prey to their miserable words Deny when confronted by the faces of guilt Words are all meaningless when dignity is killed I stand afar while you display your hypocrisy The lack of shame having disregard of integrity You raise your throne on weak hearts that trust in you Vulnerable they rely and have faith in you, Lies! Reach deep inside of your soul, And gather your shattered spirit Your bold words are founded on sinking sand, Your hollow walls will no longer stand Take a look inside of your emptiness, It’s screaming for attention Your heart bleeds from condemnation Withered from inside like a worm inside an apple Eaten from within, from the inside out, when it’s finally noticed, it’s much too late!

WHEN LIFE ENDS IN PAIN The story goes of the deceased Remembering aging seasons The memories of youthful sceneries Are gone and no longer remain… A mirrored reflection, old man before me Those hands are all worn and wasted So cold and tired, exhausted spirit Anticipating the end… The sooner the death, the less of the pain The longer I live, the torment remains The sooner the death, the less of the pain Take a last breath, descend to the grave… Super natural means to exit this realm The dead calling beyond the grave Deafening cries for the mourning of man Silenced by infinite time Peeled from the skin, spiritual embodiment Hear the dirt filling my tomb No more of the lies, the truth is revealed Of what happens when I surpass life… The pain subsides to nothing, surpass the fear of death The quest for a greater state of existence is revealed This life you once knew is reborn, no longer am I in pain Cry not my friend for I will see you on the other side… Wake not my eternal slumber for I no longer want to return Wake not my eternal slumber for I no longer want to return This is no longer my world so please let me rest in peace…

SELF RIGHTEOUS REGURGITATION Faith trampled to the ground By self righteous idiocy Call it what you want Christian, atheist, satanist, science, it's all religion! Strive for self expression To have a place in a world of hypocrisy We tear each other down Such fools, we chain ourselves up in the bonds of judgement Infect the masses with your mouth - speak impurities Truth neglected yet again - till the very end Condemning man for their views - seeking only hate What defines what is truth - when lies are spewing out of you Faith is an act of your own belief Whether it's God or reasoning Just live by what you believe And don't judge others! What is one's righteous deeds is another's evil work An argument of uncertainties of what lies in eternity To be holy or be scientifically correct The answers to these questions lie beyond the grave Spewing out mortal lies, innocence crucified Diligent to the end to create mindless men Words of man devastate bringing forth only hate Empty souls to their grave evil one at the gates The end will be shocking even to those who thought they knew the truth the pain and the suffering shall remain when it's all said and done. The end will be shocking even to those who thought they knew the truth the pain and the suffering shall remain when it's all said and done.

ABSENCE OF LIGHT A deep gaze beyond flesh and blood, A paralyzing truth shrouded in darkness Being consumed by the enticing fear, Only to be greeted by an evil apparition The grinding of teeth, Anticipate the end. The breath of the dead, Caressing your skin Echoing disembodied voices, Feel the gaze from beyond the grave Staring deep into your weary soul, Rising anxiety commencing cold sweat The clench of the beast, Slowly closing in The chatter of teeth, Anticipate death The embrace of darkness, Eclipse sense of hope The absence of light, A light that has been swallowed By the veil that overshadows, our existence. Demonic faces stretching out, From the black walls Melting in a horrid animation In the presence of darkness, Feel the ground fall beneath your feet Spiraling downward into infinite death, Vertigo in a dreamless reality The clenching of teeth, Petrified by the horror Wandering within, The bowels of darkness The breath of the dead, Caressing your skin A shadowy embrace, Eclipse sense of hope Swallowed in black, Nightmares commence

Purification by Fire The stillness of dawn being broken by fire from the sky People awakened to an apocalyptic reality Oblivious to the oncoming destruction What once was a city now lies in ruin. The crowd begins to aimlessly scatter through the streets An attempt to flee from the approaching holocaust The heavens grow with fury, the earth quakes in agony The air is filled with screams and the stench of burning flesh. See now what’s become of this, purification through fire A time for fire and brimstone, reduce everything to ash Eliminate iniquity, punishment for the unjust Filling the rivers with blood, decimating depravity. Trapped within the walls of this burning city There’s no escaping from the approaching flames Engulfed by a rain of fire melting all flesh and bone Blood boils and entrails explode leaving charred remains The city quickly makes its way to extinction Society of the perverse wiped from existence There’s no escape from flames!

Deterioration of Human Complexity Enthralled and entertained by an illusion Smoke and mirrors to conquer and divide Mass distraction by idiocy displayed No sense of reality only through fantasies portrayed Behind screens of mental abuse Choosing lies in exchange for the truth Stimulation fictional dramatization Descending morality, value of life at a decline Eyes sewn shut by the threads of delusion Fail to perceive what is real in this realm of deception Mankind has failed

IN THE PRESENCE OF DARKNESS I’ve come to terms with my end, Realization of mortality The pain I live will soon subside, I embrace the cold touch of death My fear of death no longer exists, Reduce my hopes to fantasy My love is strong yet distant, Can’t stop the lasting agony The thoughts begin to race Sifting through the endless voices, Trying to make sense of the madness While so called support worsen the damage, By working to achieve their agenda A forced smile to shine upon society, Yet dragging a cancerous baggage While others perceive a synthetic joy, That’s displayed to cover up sadness Annihilate self worth Emotional drain closed up in a shell, Despite being encircled by loved ones Pushing away yet my soul cries for help, Please save me from going under Wake in dismay temporal circumstance, Avoiding social interaction Letting go is much easier than to hold to reality, That’s foreign to my conscious self Annihilate self worth

Inner Self 05:13
Inner Self Walking these dirty streets With hate in my mind Feeling the scorn of the world I won't follow your rules Blame and lies, contradictions arise Blame and lies, contradictions arise Nonconformity in my inner self Only I guide my inner self I won't change may way It has to be this way I live my life for my self Forget your filthy ways Blame and lies, contradictions arise Blame and lies, contradictions arise Nobody will change my way Life betrays, but I keep going There's no light, but there's hope Crushing oppression, I win Betraying and playing dirty, you think You'll win But someday you'll fall, and I'll be Waiting Laughs of an insane man, you'll hear Personality is my weapon against your envy Walking these dirty streets With hate in my mind Feeling the scorn of the world I won't follow your rules Nonconformity in my inner self Only I guide my inner self
