Exodus 05:02
lyrics
buy track
As pieces fell into place I watched the sky grow black Frozen with fear I couldn't break the trance A hole opened in the sky Heard the black wind moan My heart stopped as I stared at it My time was all gone... That was all I saw Before I turned to run away I heard them howling for blood I ran because I knew I could not stay I ran because I don't want to die. "Oh God! Where are you!?" I cry! I cry! Calm comes in the back of my mind I seek the direction to go The sound of the trumpet must be heard I must go!

Fragile 04:30
lyrics

Falling down Fire strikes the ground I call to thee Hear my plea Fragile I flee Get away from me I want to scream But I can't even breathe The sky is falling down I fear what waits ahead The hour has come! The day of the end! Run run away You can't escape the day No turning back Sand in the hourglass Hours slip away Quickly comes the day

The Valley 03:26
lyrics

In the valley I cry out I cry out for thee Through the heat and burning sting of the wind I go forth but will this journey ever end? I cry out in pain tired from this misery Can I ever find a space to breath? Through the valley of destruction I hear the rattlesnakes Very careful not to fall down Careful not to break I am mighty in the valley As I struggle to reach tomorrow I'm still bound to today I need to get free of this place So I cry out and I bleed I need I need to be free

Fall 04:02
lyrics
buy track
Time is like the falling leaves in the wind All things decay, every story has an end I don't want to be the one To fall like a star from the sky Shaken from the firmament Cut down before my time Like the fallen leaves from the trees The cold wind reveals the time Hearts of man have waxed so cold Innocence has long since died Like the leaves from the trees We all fall In the winter of our misery We all fall Did you think you'd live forever? Sickness and age you'd outrun? Don't you understand we're not gods We only have our time in the sun... Time does not care about your sorrow and grief Wheels turn, the world spins, the hours do not sleep Like the stars from the sky We all fall When our time comes around To pass through the fog This is the only escape from the curse of decay The wages of sin is death, a cost that must be paid There is the door, my escape from this place The icy pallor of death cannot show its face

Second-Hand News 03:45
lyrics
buy track
I have no fear Though you're near I feel you near Second hand news Won't walk in your shoes I will not be confused Begone from me I can finally see Entangled no more I've walked through the door You have no power over me Tumbling down from the sky I know why I will not be confused by you By all your lies: On the news and the screen and the voices in my dreams What have you wrought: a twisted mind With lyrics brought forth in time Cast the shadows on the wall The music enraptures them all Those with an ear What will they hear? Will they hear my call? Or will they long for the piper's song Can they hear at all? Unplug your ears Before they trap you here This is not a game To gain the world And lose your soul That's the price you'll pay

In the Dark 03:15
lyrics
buy track
Turn down the lights And turn on the night Ready to fight For our right Powerful masses move Together in tune Under the moon Up above Candle in the night No fear or fright The iron bells toll For sacrifice... "Up! Up!" they cry, "Up! Up! Into the sky!" "Off with their heads" The clan must be fed! Pale faces grin In the dark! Run! Run while you can From the outreached hands From evil plans Made in the dark... Tides turn with the moon The hour is soon As waves foam on the shore In the dark... In the dark...

The Promise 03:46
lyrics
buy track
Never in my life have I felt so afraid Never in my life have I felt so betrayed Then, I remember the promise He made to me And like a storm I rise up from my misery It's so important to remember who you are They will try to take away your heart Always remember the promise He made is still true Never will He leave or forsake you I remember you... I will not move... Never in my life have I been so alone So often in my life my sorrow's overflown Then, from my mind, I recite the words in my heart From all this darkness forever will I depart For I overcome To shine as the light of the sun I am forever and forever will I prevail I have decided to forsake the empty shell

Doldrum 03:30
lyrics

My ship upon the water Hasn't moved for days Am I going to die here How can I escape? Nothing seems to move me Locked in day by day The skies are empty All colors are gray Am I trapped forever more Will I find another shore I must escape I cry for a saving wind Free me from this place I'm in Free me from the doldrum and decay My life is a dream Without motion or sound Everything stands still The silence drowns Echoes of thoughts Rattle in my head I am so tired Of waking in my bed All alone in this curse Without a single verse Nothing in my cup And I can't wake up And the wind fills my sails Once again I prevail Faster than before I take off toward the shore

Corruption of the Heart 04:13
lyrics
buy track
Time will tell The voice once spoke Time ticked on as My heart broke As the fire rose to the sky Why has the heart died? Metal reflections, broken glass Wings of steel falling fast Secrets are whispered Among the trees I see you out there Watching me, watching me As the sun fell into The darkness of the night By tongue and gun they carried on By the fire's light The images have turned to stone The carvings they have made Ideas and ideals Shot into the brain As time rolled by Stars did fall We've lost so much time Listen to me very quickly Time is near to disappear

Weep 03:47
lyrics
buy track
As the thunder rolls through the sky The time has come After all the miles and the sweat and the screams This is the final mile The last blood we must bleed The bodies are buried It can't be undone The clock never moves backward You can't unset the sun Tick tock the hands of the clock Are the noose on your throat This is the world's end And the end I call forth You've stood long enough Now the time has come The time has come Standing there In the midst of them all Their twisted faces scared as The sky starts to fall Your hour has come So weep Darkness forever will be Your only relief

Again 04:39
lyrics
buy track
This is the time I've dreaded for so long The empty sky The clouds are gone My god is strong and so am I I am not alone and now I will not cry Come one come all All you who dare My blade is heavy And well prepared I've done this before Stood out in the rain It seems nothing's changed This constant pain I have the time And the rhyme to stand All I know Is that I don't understand This curse and this verse Is reason enough to go on My broken heart still beats for you And sings your song Jesus come deliver me from this life I can't go on...

The Tower of Babel 05:46
lyrics
buy track
How have I come this far just to fall? How have I come this far just to fall? Nobody said it'd turn out this way I had so many plans in my head In my head I thought I knew which way the wind blew But I was wrong... Falling to the earth I built this tower of stone Falling to the earth Built from my flesh and bone What did this time gain me here All that I know is this fear This shadow impossible My whole world disappeared Time for me is at an end Now I am entangled with my sin I climbed to the top I did everything right To reign over this world I tried, I tried... Falling to the Earth I sold my soul Falling to the Earth I built this fortress alone Let the rocks fall on me I am so very afraid Let the rocks fall on me I cannot face this day

Heathen 04:32
lyrics
buy track
Oh darkness in black Never coming back Mind confused, heart numb Blind, deaf, and dumb Oh why do you rage? So much anger and hate Never seeing the way Only seeing your own face You cry out for tomorrow But tomorrow never comes There is only this single hour There is only this sun Click, click, click your insect wings Gathering, gathering Come together, the hour is near I have no fear, no fear Oh heathen! Gnashing your jaw With mouth open wide Black out the dawn There is no future for this place The sky is going to fall No one is coming to save your soul Tears run dry for them all

Despot 03:34
lyrics
buy track
It starts with a spark Spark turns to flame The city burns down The ashes remain Oh no! What have you done? Brought forth the chosen one Built an image of man Built your castles in the sand Falling down to their knees To worship their king Then, it no longer bled From the despot's head You better run, run away It's standing in the Holy Place There is no turning back The sky is black, sky is black Run, run, run away Run, run, run away Run, run, run away Run, run, run away The time has come We know it now Our fate is in our hands Let us bring forth Destiny And subjugate the land Oh, Forgive of our sins We've built a martyr On the screen we project our vision Of the Father Oh the blood we have shed In the name of peace We wear it on our head The name of blasphemy

Stardust 03:45
lyrics
buy track
Far from the top You have fallen down What have you become? Abandoned your God Oh, lost and never found What have you become? Fallen from grace A nation betrayed Wept 'til you rust Stardust to dust City of stars hidden in the hills Groan like the beasts of the field... Starving for fame longing to be seen Light of their smiles hide the screams Ashes fall like tower walls The hour calls: 1, 2, 3 The pale stranger rides with sickness of mind The bells oh they chime for me... You've cut out your eyes And wonder why you're blind You refuse to see the light Deafening screams And blackwater dreams Nobody has the right... Don't know what this is? The blueprints aren't blank But, you can't even see What it is you're trying to make

The Dragon 03:57
lyrics
buy track
As I gazed into the sky Oh, what did I see? Among the stars, there it hovered A blood red dragon staring at me His mouth was opened wide I could see hunger in his eyes Seeking whoever he could eat The rusty gears of the machine The city sat upon the mountain Soaked in a sea of blood Broken and weak it spewed a fountain Cast forth from its mouth a flood I tried to get away I tried not to look at the screen To resist the allure of the lie Conquered in chains of dreams Oh god, please let me escape I am so afraid I scream as they drag me away... Is this it, is this my last day?

Retribution 04:18
lyrics
buy track
Coming together since the world began The hour of destitution nears From four directions as the world expands The culmination of our fears Retribution of this world You summoned this ordeal Built this tower of babylon This unforgiving wheel "Tear it down!" they cry, "Depart from our eyes! We want a new god! To build up our lie!" Time is not long for this world Can't you feel the violence move? Like the blackened, beating heart Screams its twisted tune This world has grown a tumor Cancer has spread Bitter vines crawling From the dirt to the head As I stood upon the sand of the sea My reflection looked back at me Mesmerized I stared Forgot why I went there... "Oh! We'll tear down the wall! Change times and laws! And toy with the dark And bleed out this mark I'll shine like a star I want to be free I want to depart I cut myself with my sword But it doesn't leave a scar Why can't I shine like the stars?"

Waiting for You 03:14
lyrics
buy track
Standing here waiting On the side of the road Been waiting so long I'm sick from the cold Must keep my candle lit in the dark Must keep a tighter hold on my heart Sometimes I'm tempted to start walking away Yet I know I must stay Are you coming? I've been waiting for you The hour grows darker And thicker the gloom I ponder the hours: am I wasting my days? Standing here waiting in the billowing haze Far in the distance there's something I hadn't seen before Are you the one I've been waiting for?

I'm Coming Soon 03:24

Time is approaching The hour is near Hold on my children And have no fear Mountains fall The seas they move Everything Works in tune Falling of the leaves Telling of me Wind blows through I'm coming soon The change is coming The fruit of decay All hope is waning Just fear and the pain The sky grows black The hour of dread The stars left their places The flowers are dead The falling of the leaves Tell of me Wind blows through I'm coming soon

Release 04:11

Looking down My feet are off the ground Toll the bells Let them stand then Stand up then The hour is here And I have no fear of the end of the end I've been prepared Been waiting for this all my life All my life Nothing at all Nothing could change my mind Change my mind Fear sweeps across the hills like the wind The core is decaying, the heart of men Beat your plowshares into swords For here comes the day of war I know you think you can stand You think that you're more than man But there is only one God And He you are not...

Armageddon 04:18
lyrics
buy track
Shadows of the night have darkened thy sight Up or down, was it the sky or the ground? The clouds in the air have brought forth despair Mirror mind, glass behind the intersession lines Looking-glass stare, oh! beware of the smile Glass eyes are glued to the screen A thousand voices all cry out together Come sit before us and dream Haunted by thoughts of what I could be So many streams all pouring into me My mind intertwined tangled up inside I cry out, "Help me!" because I cannot see Sinister eyes opened wide to devour The bloody maw of their machine Terrible violence: the heart beat inside them Why can't you see what I see? The towers are falling The hour calls my name Oh, Armageddon! The trumpets and flame Hour of power As time ticks, I wait I am ready With my weapon raised

Enigma 05:00

I met, I met fear today It lead, it lead me far away Led me, led me by the hand I didn't, I didn't understand Oh why, oh why you came my way Today, today, today My burning mind and on I go I argued with my very soul Hold on, hold on, hold on Wandered in the dark for so long Was too afraid to sing my song In fear, in fear I walked alone So trapped, so trapped I had no home I stood and watched the pouring rain I wept it seemed in vain My burning mind and on I go I argued with my very soul Hold on, hold on, hold on I need to close the door End the book, find solitude The dark is not a place I need I know that's where you like to feed I need to breathe...
