Track Name: Waves of Oblivion
Walking through this home which used to be so familiar to me…
But now everything has changed and suddenly I’ve turned the page
I go where I want to go, I see what I want to see
I can do anything that I please, and suddenly I’m finally free

They have a recollection yet they have no perception
I’m just a distant memory, I’m stuck in a loop rewound
Forever tied and bound to the ones I’ve loved and left behind

Nobody ever looks at me, they don’t even try to see
what lays in store for them in the end

Take me away from these waters,
Take away all my fears
Breath a new flame into these ashes
Evaporate my blood and tears

This raging storm is a timeless wretch
Taking all passers by into its clutch
Is there an escape for us?
Is there anyone to trust?
Take all of your misery and grind it into dust!

Take me away from these waters,
Take away all my fears
Breath a new flame into these ashes
Evaporate my blood and tears

A hidden thought breaking free, turn these eyes away
Raised up for all to see, the truth is standing in the way

The secret lies just in front of me
There’s no saying where I’ve been
There's no telling how this ends
Never trust him, Never give away
Good for nothing, All sheep have gone astray

This cold sweat wakes me again
A deep slumber I’ve never known
Shaken to the foundations
Caving in from the heavens

Never trust him
Never give away
Good for nothing
All sheep have gone astray
Waves, they crash over me
Come to say I’ve forgiven you your grief

Waiting, I’m Fading
As they stare at the ceiling

Just when all has gone, the break of dawn shimmers past and future
A new day breaks through the fog, I look past one last time

Waves, they crash over me
Come to say I’ve forgiven you your grief

The mind is tracing, wasting
Taken captive by a mystery
The heart is aching, breaking
All that is loved taken away
A vision slackened, blackened
Waking to another fading dream
A good man quaking, breaking
All the bastards go free!

Never trust him
Never give away
Good for nothing
All sheep have gone astray
Track Name: Break These Chains
A flash of memories to come
Passing fast over me the sun
Transferred through the reverence in me
A burning light for no one save me

Taken to the other plane to see
An image of love standing over me
Reliving all of these tragedies, controlling me
Pressing on with hope to come for life

Taking on all of this suffering
Breaking through into these walls of shame
Trapped under all of this smothering
Preparing for the time when I can break these chains.
Break these chains

No choice but to give a broken promise
Surrender all and lay waist to justice

Looking through the obsidian eye
No child will ever be allowed to cry
Throwing all blame to the powerless
Left in the dark and cold motionless
Taking on all of this suffering
Breaking through into these walls of shame
Trapped under all of this smothering
Preparing for the time when I can break these chains.
Break these chains
Track Name: Simple Cure
Back in the cold, a break in the fold
Come to the falls, a wasteland
Hitting the walls for whispering crawls
A prayer to give a simple cure

Everyone else they feel the same
We all cope in different ways
Forever alone inside our minds
Always together side by side

Take it in, soak it in
Reveal the sin and jab in the pin

It would be easier to walk away, walk away
Would it be better if we compromised our priorities?
It could be easier to walk away, walk away
Would it be better if we threw away our chance to stay?

Hitting the walls for whispering crawls
A prayer to give a simple cure

Everyone else they’re dull and frayed
I am drawn into their waste
I am alone inside my mind
Reaching for you, nothing to hide

It could be easier to walk away, walk away
Would it be better if we threw away our chance to stay?

Back in the cold, a break in the fold
Come to the falls, a wasteland
Hitting the walls for whispering crawls
A prayer to give a simple cure
Track Name: Peaceful, Glazed
Once I fall away you will feel some pain
Look into my eyes for this last time
Peaceful, glazed, so blue, I cannot see you
Look how far we’ve come, now what’s done is done

We agree, let it be
We believe in nothing anymore
Oh, can’t you take me with you into the night?

Once I fall from grace, will I see your face?
And will I find that all pain has been erased?
I’m soaking up my past, there will be peace at last
With no time for regret, I am longing to forget

Left short of my needs, I am waiting patiently
I embrace the shadows waiting for release

We agree, let it be
We believe in nothing anymore
Oh, won’t you take me with you into the night?
Track Name: A Forgotten Past
Waking from a dream, I can’t recall the time
Building up like steam, pouring out of mind
Into oblivion all faces blur to one
Wisps of history creep, wake me when you’re done

Patterns come to me, scattered over the fields, bright lights unwanted
Liquid horizons, falling down all around, feed the beast in time

I carried a dried out reed
Have you come to reveal me?
Here take and plant the seed
It will dry out all your needs
It blossoms into a tree and carries us out to sea
This time it will be as free as a forgotten song

Caving in over me, Cutting down my dreams
Cast into the calmest of seas, I’m anchored fast to my emptiness
A forgotten past has no lies to tell
A forgotten past crashing down

Flooding back in time, I’ve lost myself inside
Searching for my past too late, holding with all I have to save

Broken down
Wasteland taken for all its worth
No thought for the future
Ravenous appetites abound


He carried a dried out reed
Have you come to reveal me?
Here take and plant the seed

Caving in over me, Cutting down my dreams
Cast into the calmest of seas, I’m anchored fast to my emptiness
A forgotten past has no lies to tell
A forgotten past crashing down
Track Name: Break Away
How many will come to watch your funeral
And how many will come to see your cold face
How many will come to watch your funeral
And how many will come to see your coffin?

Just after I returned from disgrace we sat at the table of strife
You looked at me without your sight, I heard you speak “I envy your life”

Leave us alone, leave us alone, leave me alone, leave him alone

Given time, will this lay behind you
Hands are tide, nothing more than to get through
All this time until I break away
Break away now, break away, now it’s time to break away

How many will fall before your god falls
And how many will bleed just so that you can shine
How far must we crawl before we reach the end
And how far must we go just to find a good friend?

Just when I thought I had saw everything
I came into that room and I saw you lying there cold and bored
Its killing me inside and I can’t take anymore

Leave us alone, leave us alone, leave me alone, leave her alone

Given time, will this lay behind you
Hands are tide, nothing more than to get through
All this time until I break away
Break away now, break away, now it’s time to break away
Track Name: Deep Breaths
You sigh at the end of your rope pulling tight
We lie to ourselves when we say there’s nothing left
Holding fast, stop to feel the breeze, your headwind
Take in the air, take it in ‘cause this could be your last

Fast breath, last breath, we fight our god’s unrest
Deep breaths, deep breaths, come to face the day pulling them away

Our sight drifting through the daylight, reflect red
This time we see ourselves, an insight through a dark lense
Holding fast, stop to feel the breeze, your headwind
Take in the air, breathe it in ‘cause this could be your last

Fast breath, last breath, we fight our god’s unrest
Deep breaths, deep breaths, come to face the day pulling them away

Inhale, exhale, relapse, collapse
Accept, reject, cast off your pride

Fast breath, last breath, we fight our god’s unrest
Deep breaths, deep breaths, come to face the day pulling them away
Track Name: Nocturnal Calls
Driven into the rancor, scattered into the breeze
You are not a savior, you are just our slave
Bringing on the darkness, give the sign for grief
A coven in the meadow, bringing down the meek

Taking your faking, driven into the night
Blackbirds calling, from a blackened sky

Taken on by madness, disgraced and made to bleed
They are blind and running, driven into the grave
Drifting on a light mist, smoke and old decay
We are drawn to darkness, we are gathering

Faking your breaking, driven into the night
Blackbirds calling, from a blackened sky

In those days the hours creeped along, so far gone
My heart was just not in it, days passed away into shallow graves

A distant memory is all that is saved
I sat in my room just me and my walls
The window shades draws, I haven’t tried
I tried so hard to make sense of it all
Get out, you’re cast out, thrown into the mire
Never to cover, you cannot repay
Faking, you’re breaking, give into the lie
Blackbirds calling, from a blackened sky

I accept the pain, I must
Though I reject its stain, it’s dust
I accept the blackened void, the empty
Though I reject its stain, its victory
Track Name: Here to Stay
These towers, passing by, will soon crumble and break away
In the heat of the day, don’t be afraid, it’s all coming to an end anyways

We are, we are, we are falling
We are, we are, we are dancing
This is here to stay
But we were never meant to stay

This time together, we’ll take flight again, overhead and into the sky above
To the moonlight I heed, from this cage so free, letting go of all we arise

We are, we are, we are rising
We are, we are, we are saving
This is here to stay
But we were never meant to stay


Take time, rewind
Lost minds, broken on a distant shore
Brought back, time stacked
Reacted to a shock I couldn’t bare

Old life, a normal life
Now strife haunts my every step
Wake up with no luck
I’m stuck in my head again
Track Name: The Curse of Azreal
Revenger, hidden in disguise
Come to take me along your journey of eight flights

Taking all of my memories, just as you please
Filling me with dread I wait
No one can see the fear in me
Tear away all of our regrets

Come and have a taste, this bitter cup we share
Forever in our fate, time is standing still
From another time, never to reveal
Just beyond the door, come to take my hand

Breaking your will to stay, I take all you have to spare
Broken to the foundations, this fever chill blasts through
Siphoning the life blood, your mind is drained away
Releasing you from this world, so fleeting was your stay

Come and have a taste, nothing will compare
Forever in our fate, life is wasted thrills
From another time, ever to conceal
Just beyond the door, now it’s time to stand

We are your memories, come to carry you away,
to that distant door we fall, forever here to stay
Will there come a reconing or will this cycle through?
There must come a deafening a silence with no proof

Hatred! Is all that I can feel
Wretched! Scorned and burned in turn
Feeding! Gnashing teeth and claws
Reeling! Giving up the cause

Hatred! lingers with me still
Wretched! Always on my mind
Feeding! A hunger never quenched
Reeling! I lay down my defense

Defender, wasted breath and time
Chipping away in every way you’ve come to take your prize

Taking all of my memories, just as you please
Filling me with dread I wait
No one can see the fear in me
Tear away all of our regrets, you take them all away!
Track Name: Fields of Grey
Waking up to your smile makes me think back to when you were a child
But that was so long ago, now pray for me my son

I have no time left
This life has taken all I have
So now I go towards that distant door
Far away across the fields of grey
