"Traveler. You have passed through the Event Horizon. There is no data for what lies ahead. Welcome to a new era" Lepers repel Draw, O Caesar, erase a coward Lepers repel Name now one man Red root put up to order No, it is opposition Evil, a sin, is alive Lepers repel Now do I repay a period won Lepers repel Never odd or even Chorus Are we not drawn onward We few, drawn onward to new era Revered now I live on O did I do no evil I wonder, ever Dog, as a devil deified, lived as a god We few Rats live on no evil star Seven eves Live on evasions No, I save no evil Too far away, no mere clay Or royal ceremony A war afoot Live not on evil deed, live not on evil Won’t it now? Reviled did I live Said I, as Evil I did deliver Said I, as Evil I did deliver Chorus

From my world of the known To the path of uncharted Knowing not what lies ahead this time Only myths and tall-tales Keep my stride One world to the next We are all Under a familiar sky Chorus One million miles I am chasing the sun A horizon of trials Step into the future We are a world apart High above the mountains I’ve been here on this path before But don’t know where I’m going All I can do is follow the light And run from the night One world to the next We are all Under a familiar sky Chorus One million miles I am chasing the sun A horizon of trials Step into the future One million miles Led the way In pursuit of fading shadows Chasing all the pasts I've known All the pasts I've known The night is haunting me now I'm lost in perils reborn Mistakes have grown into monsters Defenders of the coming dawn A change of seasons A world turned backwards upside down New adventure and mystery Have led me here Have led me here One world to the next We are all Under a familiar sky Chorus

Across the barren wasteland To a city yet unknown A meeting with the gods Under their wing we roam This steelbath suicide The momentum has begun A shift of the poles A dream come true Breaking all the rules A chain on my heart, turmoil machine Divergent paths beyond Chorus Never in a million years Did the young boy wish a wish At the step of success Lost to the Stockholm Syndrome Hindsight is negative twenty Hindsight is negative twenty Only memory manifestations Recollections of the wine Population nearly in crumbs How natural he is born, amidst the chaos A moment of clarity Upon their brows, the caps and the light Upon their domain we set Not a second to miss A prowling predator, the portrait The sweat fades and darkness shades The success, a wished for fight Stabbing victim, the drama it caused Disappearing into night Never sworn, forever great, until thee divide Chorus Never in a million years Did the young boy wish a wish At the step of success Lost to the Stockholm Syndrome Hindsight is negative twenty Hindsight is negative twenty We return to reality East to where it all began The Pittsburgh Syndrome smiles The ride has been majestic Chorus Never in a million years Did the young boy wish a wish At the step of success Lost to the Stockholm Syndrome Hindsight is negative twenty Hindsight is negative twenty

Chasing the precession Satiating the obsession Unmoveable Gods Try stopping the end Impossible calculation Understood by the ancients Find where it begins Is this all in our minds A construct to which we’re blind A Cure for Time Would save the world A Cure for Time Puts everything at ease Chorus Slaves to the timeline Can’t change the design in our plan One moment of despair Can last a lifetime Only traces Can’t fill the spaces in between To find a cure for time To paralyze the forward line Attempts to end all contentions Occupy the mind Insanely enlightened Architecture of contecture The sifting of sands Odyssey of existence Victims of this reprise Is this all in our minds A construct to which we’re blind A Cure for Time Would save the world A Cure for Time Puts everything at ease Chorus

I had always thought There was only one past One truth to history Until the day where my one lane Was intercepted by a crossroad in disguise The past was glory A reckoning of all that was good Presented before more An alternate reality Subjective becomes objective becomes horrective Completely oblivious Marching through the motions of life Believing in the singularity of truth Confronted by the parallel universe It's always existed in our fucking minds Chorus The wrong past Lives in parallel with the right The eye of the beholder Dictating passage through time The wrong past Blinded we are By the confines of experience Confronts the wrong past The wrong past The past was glory A reckoning of all that was good Presented before more An alternate reality Subjective becomes objective becomes horrective Chorus
6.
The same is true No matter where we are The process repeating all over again By the nature of our existence We circulate Fixated on the past From start to end Here we are again On this path we walk Every step the same From the smallest parts To the largest crowds We are all in one And one in all Chorus All alone and in control Come and gone we are the worlds waste Circle of fate All is lost Desolate we are the worlds waste Clocks will tick around the world Striking through our lives The same hour echoes the past And chimes to the sound Of a future that's our own Time and place are own thoughts In the end Our differences will bend From start to end Here we are again On this path we walk Every step the same From the smallest parts To the largest crowds We are all in one And one in all Chorus From start to end Here we are again On this path we walk Every step the same From the smallest parts To the largest crowds We are all in one And one in all Chorus

From an unknown past An undeciphered dimension Playing tricks on me A mystery to the world An undiscernable message Reveal yourself unto me A dark chill in the room Your evidence left behind Pulling and pulling I’m tethered to your energy Lurking amongst the dead We play this game Looking over my shoulder to see The ghost that follows me Wait for the living eyes Taste the flame Preying upon the victims I see The ghost that follows me Left alone trying to explain Portrayal of insanity I know you are real Chorus Only privileged are those Who are granted your presence It is in you, I will find the truth To follow your trail of mist A blessing in disguise I seek to interpret No answers can I find Left in a state of confusion Chorus

The Craft 05:46
Passation of knowledge Is twisted and intertwined Are the fates of fact and fiction You believe as truth Is what’s hidden from your eyes Blinded by trust of the elders Propagate the propaganda Which is used to confuse the masses The destiny of man mind Your sciences and words Become twisted empty tales Of forgotten lore and myth Has become what you live by Chorus Continued through generations This state of mind is built on glass Pours down the streets Crowded like a pack of wolves Devour their prey of science Consisting of truths behind the mask Blinded by trust of the elders Propagate the propaganda Which is used to confuse the masses The destiny of man mind The empty promise of lies The inept and the foul Translating a lost salvation Into lost words and meaningless signs Chorus

With a mask painted on She becomes the object of affection Centuries past, she still avoids detection She is developed as the questioned con The hands of a genius At the mercy of the brush of knowledge Resting upon the minds edge On and on, the puzzle is continuous Through the secret initiation The seed of evil is passing once again Walking amongst the living men This immortal is caught in a confliction Turn your hands to the sky Follow the encrypted code The lurk of the smiling grin The stories meaning comes from within A distant mind Living in the near past His gifts perverted and harassed We are genetically one kind In his scribes left for the future His work and his brain have become shrines Lay the clear lines down A Legend forming creature She tells a long lost story Depth by depth She is still to take her breath Breaking out of this conformitory Chorus Chorus

Elegy 07:02
Can I believe That you're gone We had planned for more time This cold life Spares no light For your shadow to remain Our future fades Can I only have just one more day Knowing its the end Chorus I'll place your flowers In the light of the moon Let them grow Into something new Taken for granted the words "next time" The sand fell in the blink of an eye Let you go The page is lit This chapter ends Cold silhouette My heart will mend I must say goodbye Can they see Sorrowed eyes Days drift on endlessly Can I please Wake up from this dream The sound of your voice is fading away Reflections of your life I will only See the brightest lights Like candles in the rain Chorus

Order_Chaos 09:01
Chorus Come all and see the demise Patterns in the waves We are the paradigm But the calm before the storm gives way The last breath of a dying day All orders gone Come all and see the demise Patterns in the waves We are the paradigm But the calm before the storm gives way All that's left is a dying day Now chaos reigns We are all buried in the silence the unknown creates The fear controls beyond our thoughts Indoctrinating the masses through distorted lies The shepards guide their herds to light On the wings of a butterfly Ripple out Our new world creator One sign Our future designed But the path leading on is faded We all stem from chaos So back to chaos we must all return The architects of a dying world We bear the burden of blame Of blame Chorus Death whispers it's final words into our minds Repent, remorse, regret our lasting touch A fairy tale is no more the portrait of this life Only reality remains And it is just pain On the wings of a butterfly Ripple out Our new world creator One sign Our future designed But the path leading on is faded Who will plant the final seed As darkness comes for us Sprout the roots of life down deep For all the future suns Chorus
