Seventh Seal

Come and see white
Come and see red
Come and see black
Come and see pale
Fall from the grace into the fire, into the cleansing light
I'm over this, over the call, over the meaning
I'm in the dark and I won't be back
Ascension lies ahead
The end of days, beginning of lies
It's all the same to me
Slain for the word of god
Song black as hair
Moon like blood
Fallen stars
Slain for the word, my sacrifice won't be received no more
I'm underneath under the spell under the cleansing
Light somewhere here and I won't be back
There is no path ahead
The end of the night, the distant dawn -
It's all the same to me
Silence
Prayer
Fire
Trumpet
Hear angels' song: it's calling you, it's dragging me to hell
I'm deaf and blind, can't follow this, won't step into
The light dark as dusk, impaled by the moon
I'm breaking through the noise
The end of this life, the birth of the gods
It's all the same here

Antithesis

Rotting in the prison of your mind
Alone and scared to breathe
Fallen to the bottom of the pit
You look up but see nothing
Calling somewhere deep inside your soul
A voice that offers freedom
Nothing can be done for you at all
While you keep on believing
You are so helpless in chains linked up inside
Waiting for someone to save you from your mind
Meet the new master
Become one with the beast within
Choice is an illusion
So trade your shackles in for your desires
And everything’s permitted now
Without a god to tell you what to think and do
You write your own laws and vows
Love is the law, love under will
Meet the new master
He’s here, hallowed be his name
Your heart’s beating faster
So listen to his voice, rise up and walk towards the light
You feel so lifeless, a ghost trapped by the day
Sounds feel like static and colors fade to grey
You are so helpless in ropes of false beliefs
Waiting for some kind of peace
Give up, and forget all that you know
Your wisdom can not help you
Tell me, what you think is right and wrong
I’ll tell you what will break you
Fall down on your knees and bow to me
Accept me and I’ll save you
Rise up, and I’ll paint you a new door
That you will have to go through
Meet the new master
Become one with the beast within
Choice is an illusion
Throw down your shackles and live free
No more repentance
Your days of feeling are long gone
No more forgiveness
Just don’t mind the nightmares of the things that you have done

Witness

Hear apocalypse is coming
Soon to take us all away
Hear the end of days is soon, but I don’t
Have anything I want to save
I know it seems like something distant
And we won’t hear it for a while
But lightning breaks you in an instant
And thunder will not save your smile
I don’t know what these colors mean
I must have seen them in a dream
They fill me with a sense of dread
Something I said…
Hear apocalypse has happened
Purified the earth with fire
Hear the end of days has passed, but I’m not
Sure I noticed it transpire
I’m hypnotized looking at your face
Watching your eyelids’ restless sleep
I sense the change, someone takes over
A something new for you to keep
Watching you so different now, somewhere far above, beyond where I am, where you are, where you must have been when I looked away
You are something new, something god did not create,
I’m at a loss for words I wish that I could talk to you and you would understand...
Hear this prayer: you’re just another shepherd with a different flock
Have no fear, you’re just another savior
I won’t be your rock
I know the meaning of these signs
It’s you who opens every door
You want to fill me with your light
But I don’t know what it is for

Hunted

Searching for me by night and day
Horsemen, monsters hunting their prey
They cannot find me inside my mind
Won’t hear their sirens, won’t see their light
Safe and sound behind my walls, they won’t find me
I am shrouded in my thoughts, they won’t harm me
White red black pale
Brightest colors fade with time, and mine shall come
Breaking, crushing, defenses down
Closer, closer, I’m losing ground
(They’re here)
Sirens wailing, the strobing lights
Burn and crumble, they’re in my sight
They will conquer my world
With their fire and sword
They will famish my heart
And then tear me apart
Searching for you by night and day
I am monster hunting my prey
And I will catch you inside your mind
You’ll hear my sirens, you’ll see my light
Safe and sound behind your walls, I will find you
Though you’re shrouded in your thoughts, I will change you
White red black pale
Colors known throughout the time, and mine shall come
I will conquer your world
With my fire and sword
I will famish your heart
And then tear you apart
I will conquer your world
With my fire and sword
I will famish your heart
I will tear you apart

The Devil Inside
05:00
|

Rise and shine, wake up to live another day
Enraged, enslaved, fighting to survive
Outlive them all
You stall. It’s all such a pointless fight.
Just talk, don’t walk, get ready for the charge
Now you run all too scared to look ahead,
Once again, you’re dead
Rise and shine, wake up, to go to sleep again
You lost, you won… And neither joy nor pain
Makes you feel, makes it all worth living for
You’ve seen it all before
When the darkness comes
When the bad guys win
When you must go through the mud to
Keep it all clean, save it all from death
Now you’re one of them
Set aside the truth
Escape from hell but bring a little piece back home with you
Live through another day all dead inside
Live for another fight, give up to survive
It only takes a little step - crossing the thinnest line
To never save your soul again…
Rise and shine, you’ve won, you lived another day
Away with doubt. Angels can’t exist
Without hell nearby
Goodbye, good luck, see enemies ahead
You know your job: make them all fall dead
Now you run all too scared to look behind
Now you fight all too scared to lose your life
The hell inside - the key to win
You let it rise and shine

Jekyll + Hyde
04:31

Do you know what insanity is?
Doing the same thing over and over and over and over
Expecting things to change but never quite
Getting what you want and never quite
Getting what you need and always
fighting with yourself and getting nowhere
You find yourself in a state of a splitting broken mind
And somewhere deep within your soul
Another consciousness is born to take control
Insanity: it is I against I
An army of one, operation: split mind
Insanity does what God couldn't do
It turns yourself against you
So you try to survive
Playing hide and seek
Against your own mind
You’re broken together when you’re put back apart
You have synchronized your Jekyll and Hide
You are the enemy, your own most feared enemy
You wake up in your sleep with silent scream just a moment after dying
You run an endless race against yourself against the time
But you can never outrun the one inside
Expecting life to work but never quite
Getting where you need to be and
Always struggling for the basic things
Divided, conquered, seen and done
Expecting to be healed, to put together
All the pieces of your soul withered away
By endless strife, taken away by space and time
Going nowhere
Insanity: it is I against I
An army of one, operation: split mind
Insanity does what God couldn't do
It turns yourself against you
So you try to survive
Playing hide and seek
Against your own mind
You’re broken together when you’re put back apart
You have synchronized your Jekyll and Hide
Do you know what insanity is?
Burning the same bridge again and again and again
Can you see what everyone sees
Taking control doesn’t always make you seem sane
You are the dearest friend, backstabbing Brute in times of peace
You never wake up in your sleep, the one inside finds a way out
And you are someone quite brand new, but branded with the mark of beast
It is your number in the race against yourself
Insanity: it is I against I
Divided by a zero in an infinite time
Insanity does what God couldn't do
It tears the chrysalis that once was you
Deformed and divided, you try to survive
Playing hide and seek against your own mind
You’re broken together when you’re put back apart
You have synchronized your Jekyll and Hide
"This inexplicable incident, this reversal of my previous experience, seemed, like the Babylonian finger on the wall, to be spelling out the letters of my judgment; and I began to reflect more seriously than ever before on the issues and possibilities of my double existence."

Against The Four
04:43
|

Yeah it’s been a fun ride
And it’s been a good fight
Me against four horsemen in the night
I wished it would feel good
Like salt on a wound good
But instead it burnt like sympathy
And I said
Is there anyone there?
And they said
Come and look if you dare
And I came and I saw
My own angel flee in fear
Yeah it’s been a fun ride
And it’s been a good fight
Fighting is the last rite
RISE WHEN DUTY CALLS YOU
Survival instincts lie
FIGHT WHEN IT COMMANDS YOU
Your fate is sealed tonight
KILL SHOW NO MERCY
Get set and run for your life
KILL UNLEASH YOUR FURY
Or don’t
NOW NOW IS THE TIME
To just accept it all
SEARCH AND DESTROY KILL’EM ALL
When you fight with your fate
You can never be late
You can always change, or so they say
But the path has been set
And so when you deviate
Something breaks in you even when you’re back
And it rots
Is there anything there?
And it burns
Take a look if you dare
And you look and you see
Your own angel’s wings are smeared
So it’s been a fun ride
And it was the last fight
Fighting is the last rite
I’m alone against all odds
Standing still in the winds of fate
I call out to all the gods
OVER HERE COME TAKE THIS BAIT

The Eternal
06:14

Draw me a sign
Tell me how my mortal path will end so
I step away
Into cosmic void where I will be one with
The stars... sing to me
Their endless form so beautiful but
I bring their lights to end
Find your path
And walk it till you’re gone
There will be no lights at the end for you
Come find me
Can’t take me
Your stars will blind me
In stellar wake
Befallen and forgotten, staring into
The ancient voids, all rotten, they’re calling you
Draw me a sign
Tell me how eternity will end so
I can avoid
Stepping on the path of light and happiness
The stars sing to me
Their endless form so meaningless and
I bring their life to end
Find your path
And walk it till you’re gone
There will be no lights at the end for you
Come find me
Can’t take me
Your stars will blind me
In stellar wake
Take a step
The stars will guide you
Cryptic writings scream behind your eyes
The path you found
Has come full circle
In the shadows now the demons rise
Fading softly into starlight
The eternal claims its price

Seventh Seal - Reprise
01:51
|

Fall from the grace into the fire, into the cleansing light
I'm over this, over the call, over the meaning
I'm in the dark and I won't be back
Ascension lies ahead
The end of days, beginning of lies
It's all the same to me
