This barren Earth, it has no hold on me A rotten core resides beneath my feet Look to the stars, I hear them calling out I close my eyes and rise to greet my meaning I am the one... Who dreams where others don't dare to tread Beyond the sun... I fly on wings of gold, yeah! Into the black... Light-years from all that is beholden No turning back... This is what I was chosen for A wealth of worlds through all reality A cosmic cluster, it's only the beginning Free my mind of this material cage Lost to the wind that blows through this eternal plane (My mind has turned to dust And scattered on the wind These chains encased in rust Of what is and what has been)
2.
Fuchsia 04:53
Drum roll, waiting to take the leap No more pretending, let it begin Drop the façade, show my true colours The world is loud, but I will scream louder I stand tall when they look at me No fear of what they see Clenched fists, I’m made out of steel Ready to fight my way in I like it when you push and pull No taming me, I play by my own rules I like it heavy, I like it dark I’m no lady, I’m twice the man you are Through screens of smoke and flashing lights Hundreds of shadows rise before my eyes Heavy silence before the storm I think to myself, staring back at them all... My body’s strong, but my mind is stronger!
3.
Hive Mind 04:18
Keep your fortune, keep your fame Keep your ivory towers and your golden chains Keep your spotlight, keep your praise Keep your factice dreams, your efforts are in vain Primordial rhythm Language of the gods Darwinian schism Still we're bangin' rocks No, not really one of a kind A million miles from divine So pull the wool from your eyes And see the hive mind Instinctively driven Adrenaline release Look at the gift we've been given This is where I'm at peace Give me purpose, give me power Give me illumination in my darkest hour Give me reason, give me rhyme Give me a foothold in the shifting sands of time But are you really alive? More than a slave to the grind? The voices echo inside Obey the hive mind! Telepathic cohesion I know you're feelin' me Hypnotic repetition Surrender to the beat... Resistance obsolete Rejoin your kindred kind Obey the hive mind! (Don't fight it Embrace it Can't tame it)
4.
Contagion 05:24
(Rusted, rotten, expired minds Running circles, spreading their lies) Venomous fangs, deep in our flesh Keeping us dull, keeping us tamed Don't speak, don't look Spit out what they feed you (/Bite the hand that feeds you) Run free, straight through Their shields and the armies of (fools) Airborne sickness, living on words Modern plague, ruling the world Sugar-coated kicks in the face Bringing the worst out of the human race Only the truth is what you want, is what you need To break through from what they want you to be It will take the awakening of a nation To put an end to the spread of this contagion
5.
The Flood 06:01
Feeling like a drop in the sea, like a star in the night sky Living like another average soul, I wait for my time Is there more I can be? Is there more I can learn? Surviving to embrace just one last setting sun I don't want to vanish without posterity Since the future is void, now's the time to be free If our lives had any meaning, would it matter anyway? Or are we searching all in vain? Dreaming of the afterlife and what will come of us Sinking, tumbling like a stone that got caught up in the flood We are all grains of sand in the desert of space Foolish enough to think we could make a difference We are pawns in a game we do not understand In this circle of life, I need to find my place
6.
They mapped the oceans and charted the skies Borne upon the waves until their cruel demise We follow their wake and ride the rolling swell Seeking shores anew and risking all for tales to tell We're taking on water... Wake the captain, sound the klaxon, rouse the crew We're taking on water... Batten the hatches, man your station, hold her true Two... Six... Heave! In the wake of the galleon Hear the cannon, watch the sky The tide is rising high Now comes the time to fight on (Fight for your lives) Under the endless sky all sound takes flight Black above, as so below, becalmed within the night We'll hold our course through storm and calm Our song heard true, our heavy psalm
7.
Skin 03:55
How shall I live? A hole burns in this pocket deep The night is young, ain't no time to sleep Electric frost and bitter taste Mark the start of this night's chase Chemical bliss pumps through my veins Feast my eyes on life's old games Paint the town all shades of red Feel alive before you end up dead Sell your dream to me... I’ll pay whatever price as long as you make me believe It comes as no surprise... Your body’s heaven-sent but I can’t look you in the eyes How shall I die? Reality ain't so far from dreams The world comes apart at the seams Are we here to wait out the night Or stave off 'til the coming light? Neon flesh bared to the air Stark against the eyes that stare There comes a time when all must end With all my mind and my money spent Morning light cuts like a blade Through the haze of the night's charade Is this regret or the price I pay To rise again another day?
8.
Pulse 11:11
Drown in my deepest desire Feel the burn of my fire Resist the urge growing dire Delicious inferno pulling you down from below You’ve become the prey, my prisoner I long to devour Make it last for hours Watch you take your last breath as I put you to rest How I love the game that you’re playing (/How I love the rush that you’re seeking) Stretched on my rack, yeah, you keep crawling back You know I know what you’re doing Oh, I will tear you apart Shake you right to your core I will be crushing your body to shards How the hell could you come back for more? You’ve picked your poison over and over The ecstasy lies in the battle Nowhere to run, no surrender While you gasp under me, begging for my mercy Endure all the delights, scalding like the sun Are you too far gone? Damn right you are! But until our bodies avulse, be sure that I will Feed on your thrill, feed on your pulse
