The Prophet
07:35
|
|||
|
In the hands of a false prophet
Voluntary darkness
Swamp-lurking beast
Claims to have the heart of a priest
All has turned to ash in me
Channel my loss of reason
Blessed silence
Faith in a lie
But all this won’t save me

Cripplegate
07:57
|
|||
|
Wraith of fear and the ideal of want eternal
Cripplegate
Guarded fate
Shelter us from the desperate
Crazed on fear and the ideal of wealth eternal
Perpetual exclusion
Cripplegate
Guarded fate
Shelter us from the desperate

Ashes
03:11
|

Can I set sail from these sorrows?
These barren lands of ash
My world was torn asunder
By reasoning vain and brash
Somehow I lost my way
I wanted to be something great
Can I set sail from my sorrows
My barren heart of ash
I struggle, I falter, I envy, I crave
I hunger, I resent, I covet, I fail
Somehow I lost my way
I wanted to be something great
Let my pride lead me astray
Forsook my ideals for trinkets and praise

Carrion Seller

|
Carrion seller
Peddler of lies
Unchecked avarice sets my soul on fire
Broken
Enabler of others violence
Cynics erode the world
Exploitive avarice sets my heart on fire
Broken
Fight the erosion
Coin and perjury

Occultation
12:26
|
|||
|
Truth abandoned for gain
Pride led them astray
Hope blots out
Desire blots out the pain
Bereaved yet silent
Content yet doomed
History will tear you to shreds
