Murder of Crows
03:08
|
|||
|
cities burn far below us
from vantage points on high
among the barren graveyard trees and unkempt silent tombs
we left that world behind us
our cabal of the night
we gather in the bleak and rotting cemetery gloom
a world of ever-blackness
cloaked in eternal dread
we sit and wait watching the violence and chaos unseen
we rotten leper princes
we watchers in the dark
wait for the flames to dim and
pick the fallen corpses clean
born aloft on tattered wings of midnight black
the world beneath us burns we scoff and watch it decompose
you can rot down there amongst the carrion
not us
we own the dark we own the night we are a murder of crows
above the weak and weary
of this cadaver world
we pick off vampires and mindless walking living dead
we are the equalizers
we keep the streets so clean
aristocrats shrouded in black feed off the dead and the diseased
(in this decaying world we are the carrion kings)

Neon Wraiths
03:24
|
|||
|
claw kill like rats they’re tearing at the meat
tear raze extract the nightmare from the dream
throughout these windswept city streets
a sickness festers underneath
violence has shown its bloody teeth
this chaos is no place for me
the silhouettes dance in the flames
destruction apathy and rage
reason lost to the mindless fray
reject this lost society
descend into darkness and this bitter cold
the lost and unwanted shed their skin and ignite their neon souls
and slip into the shadow’s embrace
hunt down gunshots ring in cacophony
break now consumed with animosity
the hunter now becomes the prey
the neon burns away the grey
blackness drowns out the glare of day
children of night come out to play
taking solace in the screams
this world is ripping at the seams
dead eyes stare wide in disbelief
appearances tend to deceive
descend into darkness and this bitter cold the lost and unwanted
shed their skin and ignite their neon souls
and slip into the shadow’s embrace
I know a place where the unloved and alone
draw strength from their sadness
inured to the hate of this uncaring world
and slip into the shadow’s embrace
we are the neon wraiths
nothing can stand in our way
in the shadows ignite
with luminous neon light

The Eternal Embrace
03:47
|
|||
|
you’re all alone on a dark night
lost in a dream nothing feels right
shadows and shapes in the moonlight
walk by your side just beyond your sight
there’s no getting out
there’s no escape
no way to survive
this is the end
this is forever
we are the dark and we’ve come to hold you forever
the chill autumn air rips right through you
an icy cold stare looks within you
all of your dreams become nightmares
look into your fears you’ll only find us there
don’t try to scream
there’s no place to run
nowhere you can hide
this is the end
this is forever
we are the dark and we’ve come to hold you forever
we are the night
we are eternal
there’s no way out and you’ll be ours down here forever more

Awaken the Darkness

with total control
they snuffed out all resistance
a grinding machine demanding absolute obeisance
unleashing pogroms on
all who would deign to question
program the rest with mass post-hypnotic suggestion
break the chains of information overload
they seek the subjugation of each thought in our brains
we must ignite this dark fury burning deep inside us
let’s kill the lights and awaken the darkness within
I reject this system of corruption
dulling minds with dopamine and mass distraction
anti-life nihilistic overlords
mainline adrenochrome while wallowing in putrefaction
no
I will not bow or kneel
down to systems of thought control
cut the power and their throats

Inside the Dark
02:30
|
|||
|
In this shadowed wood
shrouded in depthless sadness
the shades of lost souls wander restless and alone
I walk among them
a hollow silent phantom
consumed by enmity for all that I have known
through endless hurt
into the shadowed places
inside my soul there is a sick and wasted heart
this wretched cold
burrows its way inside me
in this liminal space where we’re not dead yet not alive
there is a way
though I may never find it
to leave this place but I know I have to try
through endless hurt
into the shadowed places
inside my soul there is a sick and wasted heart
I drink the pain just like the finest wine
it flows inside of me and keeps me safe inside the dark

It's All Gone Wrong
02:02
|
|||
|
wrong we are the dead
despised and the diseased
adapted to the pressures of a life of misery
we dance among the shadows of the cemetery trees
we watch the world collapse in throes of decimating entropy
it’s all gone wrong
we are the blank
and hollow empty shades
the wasted generation lies in wasted disarray
adrift within this nightmare world of chaos and dismay
no worries and no cares inside we’re going to throw it all away
through the hate
through the pain
the system has gone insane
in a broken world
where we don’t belong
it’s alright
but it’s all gone wrong
through deceit
and through despair
the system is beyond repair
in a ruined world
where we don’t belong
it’s alright but it’s all gone wrong

New Machine
04:00
|

they found a way to control
us they got inside of our brains
through psychological warfare
but I’m slipping free of these chains
their mental prison can’t contain me
and I’m not giving in
disconnect from their system
won’t let these parasites win
everything’s going up in flames
and the world crumbles in decay
but it will still be ok
if we hold on to this
jackboots and destruction
division and hate
endless lies and distraction
is their desired endstate
turned their weak minded puppets
into useful idiots and fools
feeding on mental confusion
like insatiable ghouls
everything’s going up in flames
and the world crumbles in decay
but it can still be ok
if we hold on to this
I know that everything will be alright
if I can make it through the night
and with a little bit of discipline
I can find that strength within
I’m getting stronger every day
and their control just slips away
now no one’s got a hold on me
I feel like I can finally see
their endless lies they spit laid bare
and I don’t even care
I’ll never let the bastards win
it just takes one step to begin
I’ve become a new machine
and my engine’s running clean
my vision’s wide and clear
immune to all their hate and fear
nothing stands in my way
I refuse to be enslaved
by the vile powers that be
I’m alive and I am free no one’s stopping me

The Corruptor
03:03
|
|||
|
here in the everdark
depths of distress
we manufacture
the lies and unrest
to keep distracted and under our thumb
to keep you complacent and terminally numb
rotting minds to the rotten core
we are the corruptor
the worms inside the open sore
we are the corruptor
the world is a prison
and we hold the key
we’re inside you all
like a hidden disease
we own your minds
and your hearts and your souls
and you’re fools to believe that
we’d give up control
we’ve nothing but contempt
for the sheep inside their pens
they lack the will to even understand
we’ll keep them in their place
we don’t make mistakes
and everything is under our command
the system cannot fail
we’ve seen to each detail
everything we wanted has come true
the fix was always in
and we will always win
and we have always been inside of you

Within the Labyrinth
03:46
|
|||
|
we are the lost cast out into this oubliette inside
this maze of death a labyrinth of impossible design
hated despised just like the twisted minotaur we are
hunted in fear but now it’s time that we settled up the score
in this dread and disquiet
we’ll fight our way out yet
through catacombs of broken dead and dying things
through this slaughterhouse of pain
in this prison labyrinthine
we’re racing through and breaking free our iron chains
they thought they could lock us down in the shadows underneath
they thought we would accept our fate in blind complacency
our cold dead hearts are beating with an incoherent rage
we’ll take the streets when we break free from this twisted cage
our humanity was lost
but everything comes at a cost
and we’re not stopping until we’ve won
we’re bringing in a brand new day
and we will surely make you pay
for every single thing you’ve done
we’re your deepest dark regret
the things you tried hard to forget
but now we’ve come to make you see
that we will teach you loss
the line you’ll wish you never crossed
and we will bring you to your knees

We Fade
03:09
|
|||
|
there was a moment that I missed
slipped in between frames inside
one single instant that I slipped
out of phase and into this
dance as the light is unmade
in desolation we fade
you took the pill you took the ride
taught to believe in their deceit
swallowed the hook swallowed their lies
did you find comfort in your sleep?
Dance as the light is unmade
in desolation we fade
this dissolution of self
now we’ve become something else
lost in the cacophony
give in to black misery
we victims of circumstance
watch the world burn as we dance
|

in the dead cold winter night
the sky a charcoal grey
I need to make it right
but it’s already much too late
the light is dead and gone
the bitter wind bites hard
while embers fall like rain
and set the world aflame
this feeling is so strange
I know you’ve gone away
I try to say goodbye but you’re already gone
I can see your eyes
the light within has died
please don’t leave me here afraid and alone
the world around me burns
painting shadows on the walls
as I stumble through this maze
of antiseptic halls
there’s so much I wish I said
and words I never should have told
if the world is burning down
why do I feel so cold?
this feeling is so strange
I know you’ve gone away
I try to say goodbye but you’re already gone
I can see your eyes
the light within has died
please don’t leave me here afraid and alone
and now I feel so cold
but something’s burning inside of me
and I feel so old
these regrets are devouring me
please just wait
I don’t want to see you go
please don’t go
away
from me
please don’t leave me here afraid and alone
