1.
Awake 04:40
Awake and prepare your house The time is coming soon Awake and be ready for battle Arm yourself with the truth Life is a dream Deep a sleep Strong delusion Has clouded thee Awake to those at ease The time has quickly went Arise and take up thy bed Make your time well spent Be not asleep when he arrives Be awake and see Know what is to come Understand what shall be
2.
Break Free 03:55
Shadows come in the darkest of times Bring their deception and twist the mind They lie and confuse and scream their words Try with their whole might to vex and to bind Rise up, break free You’ve got no hold on me Soar with eagles’ wings Rise up spirit in me Rise up, break free Satan get behind me You’ve got no hold on me I’m free They dance around in their dark They cast their spells and make their mark Oh how, they want us to fall How weak they are, but act so tall No power in the heathen Not in all their stars and demons Nothing you can say can bring me down I once was lost but now I’m found So rise up break free Satan get behind me I have no time for thee So flee Rise up break free You’ve got no hold on me I soar with eagles’ wings I’m free
3.
I'm Rising 03:01
Storm is coming cannot stop it Power growing ever strong Thousands watching seeing waiting Thousands to the ground they fall Holy fire deep inside us Quelling up and pouring out No one can say you were not warned Feel it mounting with a shout The power the power is growing by the hour The fire cannot be slowed The wind is shifting the trees are bending I’m rising up in the ghost Watch it burning no returning Should be careful what you touch Close your eyes to be not wise to Some deceit can be too much Narrow and straight that is the gate Up ahead on the road Be not defiled by their wiles Or you will not make it home The end oh the end’s closer now by the minute The mountains are ready to fall The earth is shaking the trees are breaking The day has come for one and all
4.
I am so tired my feet very sore No time to stop or rest anymore Raise your eyes toward heaven Lift your head up high and go And fly up with mighty wings Into the clouds we will soar Our power is eternal And we shall walk and not faint anymore Fear is strong in this time And hope so rare and scarce Remember what’s been promised Do not fall into despair The whirlwind will scatter them away Our feet shall triumph in that day And we will leave them blood-soaked red Our feet shall hurt but bruise his head So rise up in power spirit filled man And call upon the maker of this great and mighty land We shall walk and feel no fear or hate Onward our path carries us to the day
5.
The fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree By what they bring forth you can see Love begets love, and hate begets hate Don’t be deceived by a mask on a face Look closely at what they do Don’t let them fool you You shall know them by their fruit Deceitful eyes, heart full of lies Look closely at what they do Don’t let them fool you You shall know them by their fruit They’ll smile and lie through their teeth Tricked and trapped the plan’s complete Twirl you around with flatteries Hand in your pocket while they act so sweet Heroes are so rare and few Don’t let them fool you You shall know them by their fruit Shadows of men, wearing their skin Look closely at what they do Don’t let them fool you You shall know them by their fruit
6.
Whole 04:05
Apart we are conquered Together we are strong Bound in one accord As we wait for the break of dawn Arise and know who you are Never falling Stand and know you are whole Skies are burned smoke black The tower’s calling The broken lay far below They are not whole Oh, the broken souls We are not dead Nor cursed with deafness We will not repent of sight Exactly where we are Supposed to be Whole standing in the light
7.
The Rain 04:31
Come come clouds overhead The sky is getting dark The wind is returning The power in the storm The sky trembles ready to bust Oh the power in the air The temperature falls, the wind grows strong Finally the rain can fall Fall down on me rain from above Heal my broken soul I need a drink my tongue so rough My mouth is dry as a bone Oh power in the rain Cleanse me make me whole I need so much relief I surrender control Come down on me, oh, spirit I give myself to you Lord The road I walked was hard and dry But led me to your door
8.
A line has been drawn in the sand The border of the shore And those that cross it Can cross back no more For now I watch the stars I see the scars on the earth below And the sky is growing dark Soon, not a spark of light will show And though they draw near I have no fear no fear They can do what they will But I am still here Yea though I walk through the land of death I hold my breath for day break I speak they all fall down Fall to the ground what an awful sound And these wounds I bear will heal some day and the scars of their pain will all go away
9.
The Fool 04:43
The fool stands in waiting The time drags slowly away The last kiss of twilight Before the night comes to stay The fool laughs away the scorn of other men He stands and awaits His ship to come in Tickets have been sold The ship is sailing away The voyage of the damned Life’s no more today Oh on the waves The ship of fools sails ahead The water is dark and deep full of dread The fool stands tall In the midst of the crowd As they sing their song The ship goes down And they drown And they drown Into the sea They go down Into the sea They drown
10.
Carefully 02:15
Across the bones of dusty dead I lightly move my feet Through the valley of the shadow of death My mission carries me Darting through the catacombs The lights are getting low I cup my hand over my mouth To mute my scream’s echo No one can know I’m here There is so much fear Heading through the gorge of the skull My sword firmly in hand I hear them marching looking for me The horrid angel band My spirit’s sure ready to move My eyes sharp as a hawk’s Move quickly but carefully too I will not get caught The sun’s hidden by the moon The end is coming soon
11.
Last Breath 05:33
I took up my cross and carried it here Look in my eyes I have no fear Up in the air you raise up your blade I know I must die I am not afraid This bitter cup I must drink A burden I carry with me Though never alone nor afraid My soul in your hands I will be saved The master calls my name I wait til judgement day The time is short but it seems so long Until that day I sing my song What can you do to me I am mighty Take my head and dig my grave And see what mistake you’ve made In death we are set free Our lives are not ours you see We walk until our time to rest We go until we take our last breath
12.
He Who Lurks 04:56
Dark in the shadows of your room Hidden in the cracks of the crevice He lurks to seek out He calls to draw out Heed not his call and resist The shadows overtake his victims Like a murder of crows They swarm and pull apart Do not embrace the dark Hidden you are not It is a door to death No escape once crossed Shh… Shh… Do not open up your doors Lest the shadow walkers swarm They lurk even now near you Watching to see what you’ll do There is danger in the shadows of the dark Look and see there he walks Deep in the night, he takes flight Lurk not in the dark, run for the light
13.
Broken 04:54
Oh broken man, broken man When will you be whole again? Look upon not, don’t know what What I am anymore Will I be weak and heavy-laden Oh broken in this state I’m in Can I find forgiveness Will I be whole again? Striving to rise, I open my eyes I see, what do I see, me in pieces Come claim me someone Pick me up out of the crowd I’m here, can you see me? I’m standing very near Come lift me up I might get noticed Here, here, here… Will I be weak and heavy-laden Oh broken in this state I’m in Can I find forgiveness Will I be whole again?
14.
Long legs piercing gaze the spider looks at me I stare back and cannot move myself I can’t get free He licks his lips He tears and rips Help me someone I’ve been entangled and I cannot get free Covered by his tall shadow He captured me A man with no name a nobody So please help me I am not free The web tangled tight There no hope in sight I can feel his bite No strength left to fight Help me someone I’ve been caught and I cannot get free These chains around my soul are heavy He captured me
15.
If I Could 04:56
So bound in my sin I cannot get free Tied up and chained oh what has become of me Fearful and alone it’s getting harder harder to see So cold where i am I hear the wind in the trees How did I get here in this place Trapped here til judgement day My heart is broken I cannot feel If I could only break these chains Oh how different it could have be If I walked the path of righteous men If I had not given in Fallen prey to my wicked sin Blind man I am deaf to the truth My ears heard not I ignored you My mind convinced of darkness and pain If I could only break these chains Left here in the dark alone without a friend I shall remain here until the cold bitter end
16.
Lock your windows well and don’t rest a spell Keep your eyes out You know he’s on the prowl And he’s looking for you So you better not be found Behind every door He’s breaking through the locks For God’s sake, run for your life Cause he’s not gonna stop Where the light shown through the glass Now darkness has come to pass The moanings have grown to roars He’s behind every door Stay not in one place Do not show your face Until the time is right We lift our arms to fight Look into their eyes Be not surprised Who is looking back at you Who’s behind the disguise Oh no! What have you become Oh no! You left your door open You left your door open…
17.
The Heart 04:15
Look in your heart What is there? Is there hope or joy Sadness or despair? Numb the heart can go if you let it Deep into the cold ground There is no return from darkness Be careful what you allow O guard the heart Fragile easily broken There are those who take and those who’s hearts are stolen We are slaves to our desires Our hearts are on a string No more can we be free of sadness Every moment has a sting I left my heart behind me Couldn’t take it everywhere One day I realized I’d lost it Looked back but it was not there Now there is only numb the void and the cold now I feel nothing and only shadow I hold
18.
His Eyes 02:53
His eyes can see Down the dark hole Into the black can’t come back No... Eyes that glow Pale moon’s light Empty void Yet they have sight They watch you They watch me Everywhere they see The darkness of his eyes The shadow of his stare The blood-stained door will open The pit shall bring despair
19.
Seven 04:02
Lo I saw them on the banks The mud beneath their heels I saw the river flowing there I saw them standing still Then the river lost its strength The sun beamed down below Their time had finally come to cross The river lost its flow With the sun they travelled on Heading to make war Seven eastern stars Golden crowns they wore Seven rays of sun They come with stomping feet Rows of lined formation Marching to the beat Woe I say unto you O the day is coming soon Sooner than you may think The bodies will start to stink Oh the heads will roll The war pigs will not win Blood will be shed Before that day will end
20.
Faceless Man 05:14
Who are you that walks in my dreams Can’t see your face you’re a mystery I try to discern but I cannot see Dark in my dreams you say you are me Anonymous you slip through the cracks If I follow you I won’t come back The game it is played the lies they are laid You hold out your hand to take me away Tangled up in the dream Wrap me up cannot scream There is no light Trapped in the night The blur surrounds me and I split at the seams Broken plastic mannequin men A thousand pieces make an image Coming together in one accord Signing away what they couldn’t afford And though I am not bound I am not free And my reflection Is not me No identity Don’t know where I stand Inside I am nothing Just a faceless man
21.
O dancing darkness under my skin I opened the door to let you in Moved in tune to your dark designs Left my heart on the funeral pyre Here I sit, left in the dark Who am I where have I gone Trapped here in this place Been wiped away I’ve been replaced Walk about like other men No one knows about the darkness within I put on a show for those around me I can’t let my dark defect be seen The darkness inside is well hid I don’t let the ugly light in Behind my heart there’s only a hole Look into my eyes there is no soul The darkness inside has swallowed me And no one knows I cannot see No one knows that I can’t feel No one knows my smile isn’t real
22.
Eyes are watching me Listen close They will roam Heading for the coast The valley is full The moon doesn’t speak Listen now closely They trample the weak Down in the Valley of Megiddo Quickly, down they go Beast of the field the grass won’t grow Oh so deep below Stuttering movement Time crawls on On and on and on Go down unto it Beast of the field The ground will not yield The fields are barren Not a cloud in the sky The people are hungry The earth is dry No peace for the wicked The weary have no home The beasts of the field Cry out and groan The time is slipping Don’t you know And now the tares are sewn The field has been ruined The weeds have arose No more grass will grow
23.
Crying Out 04:51
Crying out to you What could I do I did not believe Thought it was not true I walked down halls of darkness Did well what I pleased Boarded the ship of fools I sailed the sea of dreams Now I cry out But you do not hear I cry out and call your name But you turn away your ear You leave me alone in my shame This place where I sold out my name The light went away no more day You left me alone to wither away Crying out to you But you do not hear me scream I spit and curse your name Cut myself but I do not bleed Here at the end of it all I’ve put dirt upon my head Laid down with the flowers I know I am among the dead
24.
Translucent 03:40
I see, oh I see The window The shape the shift The shadow My eyes I look Cannot see I try to grasp Cannot be Faintly I see Darkly tint My vision is skewed Translucent I need to see I don’t know I peek my eye Through the keyhole The glass is blind Nothing is clear Vision blurred Nothing but fear What is to come Please show me But we see through a glass darkly
