No broader vision
(Open my eyes)
The earth so cold
A world so dark
A mind so naive
Clouding all that’s left to see
(Give me peace of mind)
The limitations of humanity
Cursed to believe only what our eyes perceive
It’s like walking on glass
I can see right through
Looking down into the nether
Terrified
Navigating without a tether
Floating face down forever
The fog rolls in
Taking your breath away
The trees pierce the sky
This peace is fleeting
I must hold on as long as I can
Unknown to others
I hide this sacred place from the world
It felt like eternity
I yearn for eternity
Staring into my own eyes
In this natural reflection
Contemplating what’s brought me here
This journey is my own
This place feels like home
No broader vision
(Open my eyes)
The earth so cold
A world so dark
A mind so naive
Clouding all that’s left to see
(Give me peace of mind)
The limitations of humanity
Cursed to believe only what our eyes perceive
You’ve lost your vision
A worthless world
A sightless place
I can’t believe a word you say
Holding close to all the memories
My jaded soul Has crumbled
I’m screaming
I’m screaming
The two worlds I knew
Standing side by side
How can I compare the view?
I’m leaving you behind

It's easier to sink right in
When you love it this much
I've seen it in your eyes
I've felt it in your touch
Let this agony break me
Because I don't want to break free
White Phosphorus, trace me
I feel so high when I'm this low
Agony, please break me
Because I don't want to break free
Slip from grace
Misplace my life
Follow my steps
And solve my headcase
Four bright lights
And a gap in between
A bright firefight
Another cog in the machine
I'm a masochist
And I'm a mannequin
I've bled for this
It's another tragedy
You cannot corner this
Another hand that's pinned
God knows I've bled for this
Slip from grace
Misplace my life
Follow my steps
And solve my headcase

Lurking in the shadows
I see the fire in your eyes
I can’t look at you the same way
I can see right through your pathetic disguise
How long until you realize?
This facade you’ve built
So fragile and ready to collapse
Your foundation comprised of false cries
And white lies
You were in over your head
You looked at me as if
I’m the one who left you here for dead
Still in disbelief
Over the words you said
With bloodshot eyes
This is where you made your bed
Your mask shines bright in the moonlight
Slow shimmer as it casts its bright light
No disillusion
No surprise
Your words resonate
Through the bellows
Your darkness in tow
Your shadows creep slow
Finding snakes in the tall grass
Slithering below
Looking for the ankles of the weak
To sink their teeth
Stumble and fall like you’ve lost sight
Of what’s in front of you
A small fading glimmer of light
Stumble and fall like you’ve lost sight
Desperate and blind

A weight on my shoulders
Unfamiliar in nature
Familiar by circumstance
Paralyzed by this feeling
Every word feels out of turn
Time passing by in a measure of days
Hours of an empty mind
My chest feels tight
I wish to break the cycle every time
I think about someday
I think about you and me
When I think about someday
I think about you and me
This is how life should be
One day I hope that I find peace
Stare back in the mirror
Revert my eyes when I see me
I pray that you see me
Why is no one listening?
A moment of weakness
No comfort
A blank stare
No focus
No rest for my tired eyes
My cries out of sight
Out of mind
A moment of weakness
No comfort
A blank stare
No focus
No rest for my tired eyes
My cries out of sight
Out of mind
Wandering this world alone
My greatest fear
A knock but no one’s home
Surrounded by no one
Weighed down by my heart of stone
I dream of what life should be
Step by step until I find peace
Until I can look in the mirror
And be pleased when I see me

I wish you didn’t have to hear me say
That I’ll do better next time
I hope that you don’t have to feel this way again
Cause I’ve been breaking my own promises
Leaving nothing in my own wake
Sometimes I question if I’m awake
Or if I’ve fallen asleep again
When I close my eyes
And embrace the warmth of the sunlight
I don’t want to stray away
From this feeling
Of belonging in my own skin
When I close my eyes
And embrace the warmth of the sunlight
I feel at home again
I feel at home again
I don’t want this
Feeling to slip away
I’d give anything
I don’t want this
Feeling to slip away
I’d give anything
This is the last time
This is the last time
I promised myself in the dead of night
Digging deep
Finding my way by candlelight
As it burns
I feel myself running out of time
When I close my eyes
And embrace the warmth of the sunlight
I don’t want to stray away
From this feeling
Of belonging in my own skin
When I close my eyes
And embrace the warmth of the sunlight
I feel at home again
I feel at home again
My silence keeping me up at night
Feeling like
I’m watching my life from the outside
Watching these moments pass me by
Pass me by

Sinking into the unknown
Gasping for air
I’ve come to accept that I
Might not be coming home
Give me your wings
I can’t believe
Have I been received?
Is this hell that I see?
Petrified
Sterilized by the fire
Shaken to the core
What did I do to deserve this plight?
I struggle to see the light
Can hardly resist to close my eyes
Will I make it out alive
Against my will I abide
The feeling of being cast aside
By the hands of a God
I barely know
Make me believe
That I have a chance of coming home
No one to blame but me
Self inflicted misery
No way out
I struggle to find myself
Am I merely an apparition
Phasing in and out
No holds no bounds
Though I reside in this house
Prisoner to my own
Fear and doubt
One day I’ll come around
But not this time
Perfect antagonist
To my own mind
Nowhere to run
Trapped from the inside

Digging deeper for purpose
Scraping with my bare hands
My vices do not dictate who I am
What defines me as a good man?
(What defines me as a good man?)
Why do I feel like my choices
Have no consequence?
Yet my very self hangs in the balance
(Back and forth)
Pull me apart from the surface
(Back and forth)
Pull me apart from the surface
My conscience a mystery
No master holds the key
Hollow out the parts that I can’t see
Never seeming to achieve
Clarity
I am incomplete
The road ahead is steep
I will carry on with determination
The weight on my back as motivation
Digging deeper for purpose
Scraping with my bare hands
My vices do not dictate who I am
What defines me as a good man?
(What defines me as a good man?)
Why do I feel like my choices
Have no consequence?
Yet my very self hangs in the balance
(Back and forth)
Pull me apart from the surface
(Back and forth)
Pull me apart from the surface
Break me down
Break me down
I have drawn this path for my self
And I swear I’ll go through hell
But a reformed man is what I hope to become
A reformed man is what I hope to become
(Putting myself together
Piece by piece)
(Putting myself together
Piece by piece)
I won’t be a slave
To the things that bind me

Best release of this band yet! It has got everything you would want from modern metal: Groovy riffs, crushing breakdowns but also catchy refrains and ambient parts to balance it out.

There ARE more of us than them, and we're combat-hardened by bullshit wars wrought to feed the military-industrial-congressional complex. We need to rally and use our numbers to quash the cosplaying white nationalists, the hypocrite Christian idiots, the plutocrats and their minions, and the puppet politicians supporting vampiric Capitalism!!! In solidarity \m/
