Break In The Sky Light

by Redemption Draweth Nigh

/
1.
Count your blessings And change the dressings on your heart It's all fallen apart As the seas they rise to meet the skies The blood flooded their arks I gaze with my eye, I see inside The depths of the darkest sea Nothing can be hidden from me I have been found My spine's been rebound Open up and you will see All the words written inside of me Look at me My ink it bleeds a bloodstained red onto you Blinded by the sheer power of truth I am overhead and I am behind I'm running While you're running out of time
2.
Sizing up the interference Standing in the shadow Of eyes towering above my head Stares piercing through the night Owls glaring with some Hidden insight Their coos invite "No way through," they insist and they hiss at me Lumbering through the foliage Passing through the leaves into The garden hidden A place now forbidden Secret creeping under The moon, the watchful eyes spy never asking why "It's too soon" They ruminate at the gate So we sit upon the stones Wonder if we are here alone (Watchful eyes tell careful lies) Spies sitting in the trees Watching, seeing, calculating (I know our camp is filled with spies) Don't you think I know you're there I could spot you anywhere (Watchful eyes tell careful lies) I feel the burning of their eyes I know our camp is filled with spies (I know our camp is filled with spies) Oh my god, be careful (Be careful) Now more than ever (More than ever) They'll pull your guard down (Pull your guard down) Ease your confession (Your confession) Like night they'll climb upon you (Climb upon you) The heavy heel of death (Heel of death) They'll weigh down upon you (Down upon you) Choke out your last breath (Last breath) There is no return from the error of concern for spies
3.
Fly With Me 04:51
Open the page and gaze with me A preview of what is to be Look into my eyes and see See Burned out under the sky lights The stars blaze out in the night The fire is still in my eyes Because I am alive Tear down their gods from their firmament Crumbling like dust in my hand Built up so tall, the pantheons fall All across this land In your darkest hour they will betray you Blind, deaf, and mute, you know they can't say anything Monstrous bleeding mouths enveloped in carnage And I'm tired of the pain you bring Fly with me, with these wings Fly with me, you're free Eat your words, your lies On your knees you'll try to deny "I never meant it that way" But we knew what you'd say Running as fast as you can You can't escape from His hand Because our God is real And He's near and He's ill Mend our broken bones from the dust we're gathered As you pale away to stone, mortified, you know the end is near Scream out in your dread, shred your heart to pieces But nothing will stop the fear Fly with me, with these wings Fly with me, you're free
4.
Measuring my breathing, saving up my breath Draining out the poison running from my head I know I do not care about this anymore The work is getting harder, my hands are getting sore My chest is filled with darkness My eyes are filled with smoke And I am burning up From lies which you have spoke My chest is filled with fire Heart is burning through Ashamed dwelt in your cinders As ashen dreams come true The sky becomes a furnace when I open my mouth I call down your destruction, my power raining down Your empire is fallen: its stones upon your head And eat my indignation, indulgence you are fed
5.
Go Away 04:38
Everyday I pray For the way to be made All that I want to see I beg to be laid before me Every day is the same I try but I cannot escape All that I wanted to say Is locked in my mouth far away Come down to me and set me free Oh, Jesus, I call to thee I need to be Everyday is a struggle To overcome the darkness inside The wheels of confusion come To twist around my mind Go away, go away Go away, go away Go away, go away Go away, go away
6.
Uncertain 04:23
I push back the ghosts The wraiths that grab my arms Voices in my ears They lurk to do me harm The sand is running out This masquerade is wearing thin Time keeps drudging on I just want this to end So uncertain about the time But I'm unburdened by these chords that bind Will I be prepared or Clambering through growing dark? Am I standing still? Am I stagnant, void of art? Am I avoiding truth? Did I turn away my head? It's all too soon to tell Just a violent whiff of dread So uncertain about my role to play Am I saying what I need to say All that I know Is that I must go Time will make no Exception for me The empires will fall And I'll see it all The stars have withdrawn Their shining to see So uncertain like we all must be I have the power, my faith is the key
7.
Digging 04:23
Don't whirpool me down Lied without a sound Breaking through the barrier wall Something has come to call I will stand until my end I'll not falter nor will I bend Try and break me down again I'll bleed but I'll survive The wheel Spinning, spinning Around, around, around Digging into the ground The ground, the ground, the ground Deep down, dig deep, unknown, what's found You found, you found Ancient, barren Lost and unbound, unbound, unbound Death, oh Death Pull your sickle out of my chest My time's not yet So don't be so greedy Open the doors wide I am about to walk inside Be ready for me I know I will be You want to talk about time You want to know why: the reason and rhyme The leaves are falling off the trees The season is plain to see The dark devoured up the young Time's sharp teeth and dancing tongue Stomp your feet to my heartbeat The answer is sure to come So keep, digging, deeper, deeper Tearing apart Find out what's down inside The dark, the dark, the dark Quiet, silent, table It bears its teeth to smile The dress, the guests, the feast Come roam with me a while Set me free from this foaming sea I want to be, I need to be And you will let me I will not be stopped I'll shred you down to the bone Burn down your oh-so-mighty thrones Shattered crown overthrown Fallen from the top
8.
Out in the open they pray, they prey Close our eyes, turn away Disciples obey, they tame and they cage Following in the order, the role they play Wilting dry underneath the remnant Sky scattered leaves Overwhelming Hollow within the trunk Hidden in this tree I hope they don't find me Battered heart beats blood cold as ice Their ambition eats you alive Frozen killers draw out their knives Lick their lips and smile Disappointment, shattered inside No surprise they'll eat you alive It's the supper that you've supplied Devourers with wounded eyes Oh their gaping jaws open wide Consuming everything, they draw it all inside Unbelievable but undenied Ballooning ego mind, a sin they cannot hide Pull you knives out, scream up at God Carve until you have all you can bear Stuff the rotted meat in your cheeks You'll never want with all this despair I will reach down inside and pull you out Of the belly of the beast Come we'll be delivered from this horror We'll turn our foes into feast
9.
Anticipation 05:08
I know I run too fast That I outrun my feet But this anticipation is killing me And now I'm weak with hunger This gnawing cuts through me Cause this anticipation is killing me Deep inside there is a hunger My desire tears asunder Impatient I start to wonder How long must we wait? Inside me I have the power Waiting for that final hour Fire longing to devour How long must I wait? Selfishly I wait with jealousy Longing for the end Trembling with dreams Overflowing from me Eager to begin I am prepared while you are afraid Death's door opening is my escape I am not bound by your charade I will not participate Oh how I long for the day to come I want the sky blocked out Oh how I long for my eyes to see the sun Covered by the shadow of doubt So give me wisdom And give me eyes to see The devil standing in front of me Counted the number The volume of the sea Now standing face to face With my enemy
10.
It all melted in my hands Every one of my plans All my future Stolen away with the wind Like dust was swept in To the earth again Time takes everything The rot wears down the tree The roots die when they drink From the water deep Tainted by the song The words all spilled out wrong Confused, deaf, and enthralled From the water deep It all melted in my mind Something awoke inside There's something in my eye A voice chattered in my head I don't know what it said But it won't shut up Golden embraced my mind The light inside Nowhere to hide Inside, something's watching me The eyes that see Never free So go be free Be free from me I'm bound dead in this tree Drinking from the water deep Boil up burning sea Raging waves cover me The hour shows its teeth As we drown within the water deep
11.
Weight 05:22
I've been buried down here for so long For so long Packed in the dirt here for so long So long I need to breathe The weight is crushing me I scratch to get free Underneath unbearably Reach for a sign Look out for time Can't bear the weight Feel my back breaking How long must we wait To satiate Oh Jesus soon Free me from this tomb This world has shackled me All I long to be is free Can't bear the weight Getting impatient So open the gates The hour is late How many days How long must we wait, forever? Sealed in our fate Our blood cries out from the grave
12.
Diamonds in the stormy sky Shine bright kaleidoscope eyes Transfixed on myth, televised Glimpsed their wings this swarm of flies A heartbeat like a man But the heart of man Is like unto The beast The heart of man can't understand The sorrow branded in their hand The definition of suffering bound inside their reach Diamonds shine bright But the king of hearts is bleeding The black heart on the robe At the altar of the spade they are kneeling Standing at the mouth of the bottomless pit Bellowing smoke fills the air, the dark of an endless abyss Released and deceased impeding upon The endless night by which mankind has reached The wish of peace, the scar of compromise Unmending inside their wounds This tomb they've build themselves Inside a hollow room Unending revolutions spin Round and round and round and round
13.
Suffocating 04:46
Buried me alive, don't think I'll survive Trapped down, down into the ground Bound by the dirt, I struggle but it hurts To break free of this curse, this grave, this earth Suffocating I try but I cannot breathe Suffocating I reach but cannot find relief Suffocating is this the end of me? Suffocating underneath all of this grief I try, try to find my way out, my way out I pray and I reach for the light But a thousand pounds heaped upon, upon me Everytime I try to fight My heart's full of rage, I'll break out of this cage Don't be surprised by what I might say My mind full of haze, this barrier placed I won't be subdued, I will not be phased Suffocating oh the hands pull me down Suffocating desperately they reach for me Suffocating from jilted wings Suffocating from the rotted seed
14.
Take a breath and take a step Beyond my understanding Rattle shadows from my eyes To see I am demanding We are running out of time The clocks are turning faster The sun the moon the sky the stars Are racing toward the hour We call you from upon our knees The sky is painted platinum The air is poisonous and we Are screaming in a vacuum Tear our heads off from our necks We know it will be done Thirst will never be quenched There is a taste for blood
15.
Pray for the day, that it all goes away Pray and you'll pray and you'll pray and you'll pray But it's coming to stay, coming to stay The darkness it washes, it washes away Pick me up out of this haze The blistering blaze of my enemy's gaze Their darkness will bind, a grip on my time But the sand rushes by, it keeps rushing by So, upward we climb (echoed in time) Confusion is blind (nothing will rhyme) We're thieves in the night (thieves in the night) Thieves in the night (thieves in the night) You've nestled me in this heart of stone You've made this heaven-less hell your home But now you cry out, you scream and moan Oh God, how didn't you know? You pray and wish the sky away Blew out the candles this dying day But we've been bleeding the words to say To take what remains So, upward we climb (echoed in time) Confusion is blind (nothing will rhyme) We're thieves in the night (thieves in the night) Thieves in the night (thieves in the night) Skirt out the shadows in silhouette As the hour slinked toward Bethlehem And the star doth blow at the precipice To be born again The world defeated fell at their knees At the altar of this slouching beast Oh, the king in waiting is speaking peace This is the end
16.
Do you smell the summer breeze Drifting through Through the trees The sound of gnawing bugs Eat the leaves The hour hand's around my throat Strangled and it won't let go More confused than seeing straight Shut up now, I know it's late The minute hand over my eyes I want to see but I am blind The shadows flicker on the wall Amalgams as this world falls Overshadowing tree You've been brought down, down to me Standing once so tall How great you were, how great your fall The rot eats up into Your limbs and boughs, it eats you through The hiss of passing views Nervously avoiding you Oh, Son of the morning Collapsed in your rot Cut down and burned How great thou art not Limp decrepit limbs reaching out Reaching out Many things, scattered about You will never be one, drifting out into the empty A spaceman spinning out into the sun A visitor of time brought forth, words are tempting With your singing strings hearts are won
17.
The Answer 05:07
Until kingdom come Until the day is won Until I can stand without the shadow of fear Until that day is met Until I've made up my bed Until this world is wrenched from their hands Power in the hour Light the towers, let them know To signal everything is lost Power to devour Oh the teeth grind up smoke With carnage you'll count up the cost Here comes the answer to the question you won't ask Screaming "I don't want to know!" The hour still is coming, doesn't matter how you mask The truth has something to show Until the mourning sun Until the moon is baptized in blood Until the kingdom comes We will wait Until they hang us high Until they take an eye for an eye Silhouette the sky In that day we'll die We already know and we aren't afraid There's nothing left for you to take We are here and going nowhere You will tremble in broken despair Astonish you with power blind your impossible eyes Drunken staggering we fly Set loose to unravel everything wound up tight Unthreaded unbeheaded we've arrived
18.
My Oh My 05:06
My oh my We arrived on time I can't believe what I saw I close my eyes But it doesn't matter to me The warnings line the road like twisted trees A prelude to great suffering Threats never stopped me before Oh my God We've crossed the Rubicon They tried to pluck out our eyes Our camp is filled with spies The time is coming for me The graveyard hands are calling I know it's my destiny It's gonna be so cold My oh my We've run out of time
19.
Dark in my dreaming In the night you found me Tried to peek your eyes inside just to see Invaded my head-space You came without a word Secret destroyer wearing the weight of the world Looking, searching Finding, unearthing With no faced, replaced Nothing feels real Trapped inside this veil An internal hell Forced your way through this Hey, Mister Nightmare I see what you're doing Taking something that doesn't belong to you Hey, Mister Nightmare I hear your voice calling Taking them out of the black and into the blue If you're very quiet you can hear him He's holding the hands of the children Don't look at that star Don't look at that star The light will leave your eyes scarred Leaving you blind in unending dark Those with an ear should hear
20.
Roe 04:49
Down in the mud Slip among the bristling reeds The fish lay their eggs Roe within the sea Alligator eyes stare through the vines Twisted laughs echo behind The forest and trees leave nothing for me Sheered off the leaves from their arms No shelter, no shelter (it's coming quick) The gnawing and clawing teeth of these fish No solace, no solace (nothing to be found) Dragging us down to the underground So here we go, drowning in the foam, oh no Warned and foretold, ashes to ashes, roe to roe Frozen in this fear Frozen in the waste This land is subdued by chains Do you hear it? The chariot's sound? Far in the distance Your days are running out Crocodile tears in the eyes of my peers The smiling crooks from their mouths to their ears Grinning behest, a dream possessed The light inside is just endless death The screaming, the screaming (a frenzy of feeding) Fill up your guts with your digging tongues The bleeding, the bleeding (themselves they are eating) A blurring of fish consuming their young
21.
We call you down, Oh Father Please come down to us We call you down, Oh Father Free us from this curse We call you down, Oh Father The nights are growing long We call you down, Oh Father We beckon with our song Time is slipping away (Oh, the blackness) We beg you come today (Oh, the blackness) Our fear is crawling upward Tearing in our skin The darkness in the clouds And terrifying wind The hour growing nearer Impatiently we wait Ready for disaster The crumbling of Fate We call you down, Oh Father Please come down to us We call you down, Oh Father Free us from this curse We call you down, Oh Father Free us from this place We call you down, Oh Father We long to see your face Oh, how the walls fell (Oh, the blackness) Weeping at their wishing well (Oh, the blackness)
22.
Misery 05:26
And yet here I stand With my head in my hand Help me, I'm in misery Try but I can't get what I need Free from this pain That's my singular aim Get away from me Stop trying to seize the air I breathe No I won't stop You'll have to make my body drop You cannot halt me Until I lay in that dark sleep I'll drink your misery So, pour one out for me This bitter brewing tea I see, I see I'll drown in misery It makes no difference to me I have my destiny You'll see, you'll see Finally I stand at the top of the hill The view fulfilled Misery couldn't stop me Daybreak shone as the sky broke free Pour out your misery What's the worst you can do to me? Can't steal my victory Or just delay your defeat Pour out the misery It makes no difference to me What's a day of suffering To eternity
23.
Four Winds 03:41
Time after time I've tried to find Past these scars on my eyes Unblinded by the time The vision is mine Unleashed to view the sign So draw me out of you quiver Aim and deliver There's no more doubt Answer's clearer The time is nearer We sing Take us away in the storm In the hurricane Jesus we pray Let the four winds whisk us away Let the four winds blow Let our power overflow Nothing can stand in our way We're unstoppable, here to stay
24.
When In Rome 05:58
In the midnight hour, blooms of doom grow sour Nightshade shedding thick, it is coming Vines wrap round and pinch, through the cracks they inch Seeping deeper in from the darkness Overtake the rose, peel her floral clothes Scrape the petals down, broken, deformed Only thorn remains, reveal her ugly shame By any other name, disintegrating It's time for the emperor to be revealed It's been concealed But the time, like the assassin's knife, will come Caesar, his face pale from the coffin's veil, oh well A wound upon his mortal shell Dress up in your bones Tearing down the thrones Cast out the first stone When in Rome Bleed your Father-head Stitched together dead Washed your hands of Christ Your Pilate light Hungry teeth they bleed For the chance to feed First it's "us and we" Then it's "Me" Behold then your god Your shining Abaddon The barren king of stones When in Rome Oh so you think you know what's to come tomorrow Open your eyes, you're blind The curtain is closed, nothing to show, oh no They keep it under the lids of their eyes The execution king with the face of a queen A mouth full of leopard teeth and eyes that see Hands reach out to harm, voices sweet that charm That echoes bottomless, "Do not resist" Communications crow, the black sheet starts to grow Thunder storm shadow, when in Rome Beasts lay starved and groan, the lions pick our bones In the temple of gold, when in Rome
