Abandoned

Cast off the shackles you used to bind me.
Rip off the blindfold, Was lost but now I see.
You fed me lies, false alibis,
A light that once brought hope, I now despise.
I feel like I've been asleep my whole life,
Now that I have awoken, I feel alive.
At first I thought god had abandoned me
Soon it came clear, my mind is now free
Get out of my head,
Control is all you seek.
Why else would I have turned to you,
When I was so weak.
Even now in my despair I call to you a final time.
I can't hear your voice anymore
Was it even there at all?
How low did I have to fall,
Just to call your name?
If you're there, I hope you feel my shame.
When I die will I burn in hell or rot in the ground?
Will I see a bright light or will it all go black?
I feel like I've been asleep my whole life,
Now that I have awoken, I feel alive.
At first I thought god had abandoned me,
Soon it came clear, my mind is now free.
I don't need you anymore,
My mind was once weak,
Now I am strong enough to see you for what you are,
A lie used to control those in need!
We are all abandoned.

A Cold, Cold Heart
03:53

Legs breaking cannot hold the masses
Another straw on the camel’s back
A tortured soul waiting for release
Who said the end justifies the means
Lying helpless
The vultures are waiting to peal the skin from bone
Come for the debts you owe Left for dead
We’re damned by choice
The demons I hear speak a familiar voice
My days are numbered
This is where devils lie
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye
A broken legacy
That I leave behind
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye
Release the ties that bind me
Bring me back to my reality
Release the ties that bind me
Set me free, bring me clarity
A clenched hand caresses the trigger
A violent image staring back in the mirror
Living life on the edge of knife
Brace myself to stand and deliver
This is my condition
This is my illusion
This is my condition
This is my conclusion
Losing focus
Of the life I’ve left behind
Chasing shadows
Why am I so blind
Wake me From this lasting nightmare
Or pull the plug
and end this despair
My days are numbered
This is where devils lie
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye
A broken legacy
That I leave behind
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye
I peel the skin to look inside
To free this pain I’ve felt all my life
Embrace the light within the darkness
I’ll find the answers within the abyss
My days are numbered
This is where devils lie
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye
A broken legacy
That I leave behind
My heart turns cold
And says one final goodbye
Release the ties that bind me
Bring me back to my reality
Release the ties that bind me
Set me free, bring me clarity

Into The Void
03:35

Where do I fit in, in this cosmic grave?
Is anything real? Are we just a dream?
Unfathomable fiction? Unwanted, Unseen.
What is our purpose? Why are we here?
Was it all for nothing? Is the end near?
The blindest god
In the darkest depths
Could not fathom such missteps
A blink and you'll miss it
Wiped out of existence
Awaken to a hellish abyss
We peer past the veil
To see if we were born to fail
Such a maddening sight
As we gaze beyond the light
Will the answer let us grow
Or is it more than we could ever know
Face to face with my own existence
The life I know fades in to the distance
As we dive in to entropy
We fall further from reality.
I stare in to the void, and all that I see,
Is endless eyes staring back at me.
What if this is all that could ever be?
A reoccurring dream for eternity.
The blind god wept from infinite eyes
His bastard children who'm he despise
He lights the fire beneath their feet
This all ends, the final deceit.
Madness bleeds in to the mind
Set ablaze through all of mankind
We peer past the veil
To see if we were born to fail
Such a maddening sight
As we gaze beyond the light
Will the answer let us grow
Or is it more than we could ever know
Further and further into the unknown
Are we born with purpose? Are we alone?
