How long till I loose my sanity?
Can my last stand endure eternally?
My enemies are closing in
When the day has come will I prevail?
This is my own burden
This is my demise
Suffering and bleeding
The soul I despise
Light is shattered by hate
Darkness revealed my fate
Tired I await my fall
Welcome to my dystopia
Welcome to my dystopia
Dystopia
How long till I loose my sanity?
Can my last stand endure eternally?
My enemies are closing in
When the day has come will I prevail?
This is my own burden
This is my demise
Suffering and bleeding
The soul I despise
Light is shattered by hate
Darkness revealed my fate
Tired I await my fall
Welcome to my dystopia
Welcome
Dystopia

My Dystopia
03:53
|
|

This ruin is all I have
My refuge
My home
Forever living in anguish
Sorrow plagues my soul
Too weak to rebuild it
Too strong to give in
My own fallen fortress
Lies deep within
This is purgatorial
I'm my own cell
This is my burial
Welcome to my hell
How long till I loose sanity?
Can my last stand endure eternally?
My enemies are closing in
When the day has come will I prevail?
This is my own burden
This is my demise
Suffering and bleeding
The soul I despise
Light is shattered by hate
Darkness revealed my fate
Tired I await my fall
Welcome to my dystopia
The walls are fractured and decayed
No shelter
No hope
I feel weak and doomed
I'm stuck in this nightmare
In a world full of void
I have to conquer this realm to prevent my fall
How long till I loose sanity?
Can my last stand endure eternally?
My enemies are closing in
When the day has come will I prevail?
Praying
Won't help me out of this mess
I'll overcome
Everything that stands in my way
I reach for the sun
Breaking the chain that binds
I rule the day
My soul will start to thrive
Once i'm free again
This is my own burden
This is my demise
Suffering and bleeding
The soul I despise
Light is shattered by hate
Darkness revealed my fate
Tired I await my fall
Welcome to my dystopia
Welcome to my dystopia
Dystopia

Forged into the battles
The bonds we had unchallenged
Washed away
In the blink of an eye
Shared the scars together
Every moment I remember
Took away from a darkened mind
Brother
Loss
Traitor
Born
Failure
Scorn
From this day it will be my vow
To chase and hunt you down
Cleanse every stench of corruption
From this day it will be my vow
To chase and hunt you down
Burn in the fire of hatred
The path has been chosen
Decisions were made
This is the point of no return
Crossed the line
Declared war
Relentless without remorse
The day will come
We'll meet again
Frozen in time
United in hate
Blades will cross
Blood will be shed
The dust settles
Hell awaits
And down at the bottom
You'll find a frozen lake
Its reserved for your kind
It's chilling grip holds tight
Your sins never forgotten
Your treason despised
Eternal penance
In the ninth circle of hell
Your soul in pain forever
Justice denied for me
My heart still yearns for vengeance
Deep down my journey leads
Doom is what I carry
Driven by retribution
Nine circles I'll descend
Where rotten misery speaks
Brother
Loss
Traitor
Born
Failure
Scorn
From this day it will be my vow
To chase and hunt you down
Cleanse every stench of corruption
From this day it will be my vow
To chase and hunt you down
Burn in the fire of hatred
The path has been chosen
Decisions were made
This is the point of no return
Crossed the line
Declared war
Relentless without remorse
The day will come
We'll meet again
Frozen in time
United in hate
Blades will cross
Blood will be shed
The dust settles
Hell awaits
And down at the bottom
You'll find a frozen lake
Its reserved for your kind
It's chilling grip holds tight
Your sins never forgotten
Your treason despised
Eternal penance
In the ninth
In the ninth
In the ninth
In the ninth
Circle of hell
In the ninth circle of hell
In the ninth circle of hell

Cleansing

The cleansing has begun
My body moves again
Never I forget
The dead and all the blood I shed
What does this mean?
I should be dead
Sinister voices pounding through my head
Drowned it in blood
Set it ablaze
In unholy rage
We created hell
What have we done
Old gods awoke
They seemed not real
But we broke the seal
They should never ever walk the earth again
Now the end of time has come
And they'll never rest
Try to fight, run or hide
It doesn't matter
The end is nigh
Serve them or prepare to die
Unholy laughter
Will hunt you in a thousand times
Demonic incursions, bloodshed, and demise
Skulls and blood will be the price
Drowned it in blood
Set it ablaze
In unholy rage
We created hell
What have we done
Old gods awoke
They seemed not real
But we broke the seal
They should never ever walk the earth again
Now the end of time has come
And they'll never rest
Try to fight, run or hide
It doesn't matter
The end is nigh

Obey

You are willing
To
Obey
Like moths we gather around the flame
No matter if we decease
You soak up their words
To fill the void inside
Their truth and beliefs are now yours
What will you do if they're not right?
In fear of choosing a path
To be not right, achieving failure
You are willing to obey
I won't follow them
I will face the dark
Holding up my torch
Fear will not tear me apart
I'm my own guiding light
Unrestrained and ablaze
Forever it will burn
Fear will not lead my path
We are still wanderers in the dark
We want to know what is our path
Tell us, guide us, lead us
The profanity of our needs
Like moths we gather around a flame
No matter if we decease
You soak up their words
To fill the void inside
Their truth and beliefs are now yours
What will you do if they're not right?
In fear of choosing a path
To be not right, achieving failure
You are willing to obey
Obey
This has to be our path
The choices they made are wise
Separated from free will
We burn in the light
I won't follow them
I will face the dark
Holding up my torch
Fear will not tear me apart
I'm my own guiding light
Unrestrained and ablaze
Forever it will burn
Fear will not lead my path
To be not right
Achieving failure
You are willing
To
Obey

I break the habit
And take a step outside
To hit the road
And never look back again
You stare out of your window
Motionless and empty-eyed
But the only thing that's left
Are footsteps in the sand
Another empty bottle
Feels like a drop in the ocean
One last effort
To numb my mind
Every day I see
The same worn out faces
Following orders
Wasting their time
I break the habit
And take a step outside
To hit the road
And never look back again
You stare out of your window
Motionless and empty-eyed
But the only thing that's left
Are footsteps in the sand
Day after day
Don't think of getting away
To enjoy the same shit
On another day
Give into the illusion of freedom
While what you add is just
Another digit to the system
You think you thrive but you're set to die
Under the rays of the Tungsten light
Nine to five
I'm locked inside these walls
Forced to submit
To the daily grind
I break the habit
And take a step outside
To hit the road
And never look back again
You stare out of your window
Motionless and empty-eyed
But the only thing that's left
Are footsteps in the sand

I'm paralyzed by the thought of failure
And strained by the constant fear of ramifications
All ambitions seem like illusions now
Overshadowed by the movement of time
It feels like the only logical consequence
Is to vanish in silent abandonment
Even a futile attempt is better than standstill
Nothing to lose when you're down at the bottom
I refuse to disappear in insignificance
I'm the exception to prove the rule
I am unbroken
I know reality is as harsh as it can be
But it is not a windowless prison
Tear down the paper walls of self-induced depression
And face a landscape that is everything but bleak
I have learned to live by the principle
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
If there is the slightest chance to prove my point
I'm here to stay and stand my fucking ground
I am the one left to prevail
Forgotten but still unbroken
I am prepared to give everything
To escape these walls of isolation
I am unbroken
Even a futile attempt is better than standstill
Nothing to lose when you're down at the bottom
I refuse to disappear in insignificance
I'm the exception to prove the rule
I am the one left to prevail
Forgotten but still unbroken
I am prepared to give everything
To escape these walls of isolation
I will prevail
Tear down what tries to drag you down
Fuck up what tries to fuck you up
Stand fast, fucking stand your ground
Walk on without excuses
Bring down what tries to bring you down
Break it and remain
Unbroken

Blegh
Slowly we rot
This life a disease
In search for a purpose
We pave the roads with the deceased
We still claim to have a soul
The cold bleak truth
We lost it long ago
Hollow
We're the servants of our downfall
Gaze into the abyss
Embrace the horror
Our wretched beings still breathe
We crawl
We fall
A frenzy in us all
I still want more
I cannot stop
My body aches
I still want more
I cannot stop
Make the void fade
Desperate for satisfaction
Distraction our obsession
Entombment of conscience
Eruptions of violence
Hollow
We're the servants of our downfall
Gaze into the abyss
Embrace the horror
Our wretched beings still breathe
We crawl
We fall
The frenzy in us all
We are the hollowed
Hollow
Born to rot
Left for dead
Hollow shells
We're selling our soul to feed the greed

You saw it coming
But ignored the prophecy
Going on
With exploiting full of grief
Now we struggle
To simply stay alive
This world is tainted
With our kind
Now we suffer till the end is nigh
Relentless fight the inevitable
Forever wandering in the ruins of forgotten ages
Unable to accept
In our demise
It was time to give in
The end in sight
Cry in vain
Hope is lost
It'll be restored
Humanity consumed
We are the parasite
We eat our host alive
Bring misery and pain
Wherever we reside
In search for the cure
To extend our unholy lives
We find an antidote
That lies in the nature of our kind
Our death
Brings balance
It's time for us to perish
There's no future anymore
Our death
Brings balance
It's time for us to perish
There's no future
Anymore
Now we suffer till the end is nigh
Relentless fight the inevitable
Forever wandering in the ruins of forgotten ages
Unable to accept
In our demise
It was time to give in
The end in sight
Cry in vain
Hope is lost
It'll be restored
Humanity
Consumed
