So he's not coming back
I'm done with everything
My hopes crash and burn
While vultures feed on me
It's 8 AM again
Just standing through this hell
The only ones I had
Just you and no one else
I head nowhere without my guide
Crying by naive pride
Tragedy's at hand
Prepare for the end
The end of a life
It's been 6 years today
And I'm done, laid to waste
When someone dies, their soul survives
The conscience lies, the strength deep inside
Fuck off, I'm done with this bullshit
I can defend myself
I am someone, identity
Resisting the pain, holding the key
When I'm alone, I know I'm not
I feel your presence deep in my heart
It's been 6 years today
And I'm done, laid to waste
When someone dies, their soul survives
The conscience lies, the strength deep in
Do I have what it takes to go on?
When someone dies, their soul survives
The conscience lies, the strength deep inside
It was 6 years that day
And now time still goes by
'Cause when you died, your soul survived
Now it's inside, give me strength to fight

The Beating
03:46
|

Through the centuries of hunger and pain
You've done enough, you've sucked the life
out of all those around you
The earth ain't playing dead
You killed it with your hands
You never realised until
It was too late
Tides of destruction
End of the world
Massive extinction
The chapter unfolds
Be wary of the storm and save us
I can't believe your evil ways
Now time is up
You can no longer pretend
The beating will ever end
Through millenia of chaos and rage
It's not enough, it was never enough
Will be never enough
You know the guilt inside
It's consequences time
And now you all will pay
The consequences of your crime
Prepare for it, you fools
Massive carnage
Tectonic plates will shake
Your fate is sealed
Be wary of the storm and save us
I can't believe your evil ways
Now time is up
You can no longer pretend
The beating will ever end
The beating never ends
Hello, demented fools
Elite of mindless tools
The empire falls, the ashes from
A civilization never known
You can't escape your fate
The end of mankinds' hate
Will be perpetuated by the earth
Just wait
Be wary of the storm and save us
I can't believe your evil ways
Now we're all fucked
You can no longer pretend
The beating will ever end
The beating never ends

The Only Guilty

Another dawn breaking through the horizon
Another day I feel like no time has passed
But listen my friend, this stuff's not meant to be said
But nothing works no more
Depression finally took it's toll and
I wonder why, I can't explain
These things I can't deny
It crawls under my skin and
I can't find a reason why
I've lost my patience, I've lost my mind
What can I lose this time?
And all I know is you're
The only guilty I can find
Another day and anxiety's creeping
Another day I think I can't help but feel
Everyone around me is trying to stab me in the back
But nothing works no more
I wish it all went back to how it was before
I wonder why, I can't explain
These things I can't deny
It crawls under my skin and
I can't find a reason why
I've lost my patience, I've lost my mind
What can I lose this time?
And all I know is you're
The only guilty I can find
(Solo: Nes Toimil)
I wonder why, I can't explain
These things I can't deny
It crawls under my skin and
I can't find a reason why
I've lost my patience, I've lost my mind
What can I lose this time?
And all I know is you're
The only guilty I can find
The only guilty

The Eyes of the Beast
06:27

Lost in the mist, I just wander alone
For where do you head, when there's nowhere to go?
Is there hope beyond all this madness?
Hopeless, wander, reaching out
Is there just anybody out there?
Hopeless, wander, searching inside the void
I search, throughout this coffin of the mind
Waiting for my time to come
I shake, now I am nothing but the feast
Look at the eyes of the beast
Bow down, run but there's nowhere left to hide
Millions and millions of teeth
It crawls, comes from the corner of your eye
Just like it's part of your mind
Losing my thoughts as I keep going hollow
So when my time has come, I'll be ready to go
But this torture is neverending
Hopeless, wander, reaching out
The only thing I'm understanding
Hopeless, wander, searching inside the void
I walk, throughout this prison of demise
Waiting for my time to come
I shake, now I am nothing but the feast
Look at the eyes of the beast
Bow down, run but there's nowhere left to hide
Millions and millions of teeth
It crawls, comes from the corner of your eye
Just like it's part of your mind
(Solo: Alejandro Rodriguez)
Nothing but echoes surrounding
Hollowed and lost in the dark

Still Life (In a Vial)
05:16

The spirits of the damned
Are your obsession
Your skin is falling down
For all the tension
Create life from decaying mass
Abomination
Experiment has failed
Not God's creation
Still Life, in a vial
Nature in denial
Alive, filled with senses
Beware, consequences
Not meant to be alive
Creature of man's design
Horrific creature
Just came into this realm
Erratic movements
The doctors overwhelmed
Limbless and morbid
Made of hybrid DNA
Crippled and broken creature
By the hands of fate
Still Life, in a vial
Nature in denial
Alive, filled with senses
Beware, consequences
And after decades of research
In the foundations of this church
The consequences lie
I guess it was not meant to be alive

No Path To Follow
07:59

As I look around this world we have built
I realise I am surrounded by guilt
But no one decided things should be this way
Good memories, bad times, it's all thrown away
And as we all look back, the damage is done
There's nothing left to heal, as we move along
I know it's a bitter pill to swallow
As we travel with no past and no path to follow
With no path to follow
As we fought the tide, the journey had crashed
Without realising our ship had collapsed
We saw many friends get so lost in the way
I can't believe how badly they got led astray
And as we all look back, the damage is done
There's nothing left to heal, as we move along
I know it's a bitter pill to swallow
As we travel with no past and no path to follow
With no path to follow
(Solo: Nes Toimil)
And as we all look back, the damage is done
There's nothing left to heal, as we move along
I know it's a bitter pill to swallow
As we travel with no past and no path to follow
With no path to follow
Descending, for it's the end
Soon a new day will come
Descending, for it's the end
Soon a new day will come
Ascending, begin again
Soon you'll also follow
It's turning, the hourglass
Let the cycle begin
Arising, the ashes fade
May the sand fall again
