Hello 03:11
HELLO lost friends Are you listening? I wish you could see me now I’m just the soul of a forgotten man You are gathered here to find reason in occurrences that seem unclear The doors will open to the unknown, or so the story goes Call upon the ones once lost You’ll lead them here, but at a cost Nothing can protect you from the terror that is bound to come Hello out there We are listening We open up to you Can you show us the other side, and what lies beyond? Yes. I can feel it taking over Make it stop, I’m being tortured Clawing, scratching, itching, screaming behind my eyes, my mind is reeling I’m in Hell I feel it crawl beneath my skin I cannot defend myself as my soul is ripped away I cannot escape this death I’m headed for an early grave Is this everything that you had hoped for, or were you reaching out beyond for something more? You really don’t want to see the things that come to pass, but it’s too late now, the curse is cast Will you find the answers to the questions that you ask in fear?

Gallows 03:12
Lyrics (Copyright 2015 Dakota Adams. All rights reserved.) Hanging from the gallows Of incessant sorrow I have no solace This life is full of malice I’ll never be set free No one is listening to me As I lay awake at night I feel the noose is getting tight Darkness creeps up all around me I can’t see the light Every day I lived, I failed though I tried so hard just to prevail I'm shrouded by this darkness is this all that life entails? Fuck this life I am all alone here What I once was I will never come near Fuck this life I am all alone now I tried to fight it but I don't know how Suffering alone In dark shadowed silence It eviscerates me from head to toe If I were to die (If I were to die) The world would carry on without the blink of an eye Youll never know what it’s like to live a lie Believe me when I say that you’d be praying to die Its as if a rope cuts off the blood to my mind This noose is getting tighter It's so much tighter I never thought that things would end like this It’s like a sick and twisted game of chess How am I supposed to get ahead When the king’s already dead? I am not sane enough to keep living this way My life is crashing down around me each and every day It’ safe to say that I’ll be burning in hell As it turns out had no more fucking soul to sell Tighten the knot and end the game It isn’t worth it to live this way Tighten the knot and end the game It isn’t worth it to live this way

Coffin 03:33
Give into the pressure Turn it up a notch Time to play the martyr Lay in wait forever now Seeing that all hope is lost, it seems everything is frightening Singled out and terrified, what could I have done? I’m suffering, can’t breathe at all There’s nothing left for me So box me up, lower me down, six feet underground Time to play the martyr Let’s turn it up a notch Give into the pressure Lay in wait forever I can’t take this torment, alone and left to rot. My spirit is breaking I’m slipping away I cannot see anything in front of me. Lay in wait to seal my fate One thing must be done: body must now part from soul I’ll never again be whole Pain tears through my bones as I feel myself detach Here I am slipping away, another victim of psychological decay I promise that you will see me again, when everyone is placing roses on your coffin One day you’ll see how it feels to Rest In Peace Cold and stiff and buried deep, this is what’s to come Look at what we’ve done…

As the winds from the west begin to swell, darkness fades from the top of the hills But the light that you see is just a disguise, and the fear that you hold will never subside So you follow the path to be reborn again and believe blindly that you’ll be saved “Purify” yourself and abandon everything that you had ever stood for Can you truly cleanse your soul of all your sins? Will it really save you in the end? No. It’s too late. You are the one who broke every boundary Nothing can clear your name of the sentence you carry You will not ever be safe from eternal torment No god will protect your soul; it’s been overtaken You are nothing, won’t amount to anything, living life behind the lies you conceive within your fucking mind Brainwashed and unstable, no one’s sitting at your table Everyone is over it, the lies you spit You’re full of shit You will never be respected Everyone knows how you’ve acted You ruined your reputation This is your end, the demise you’ve chosen What’s done is done is done You’d better fucking run Nothing that you do or say will ever make this go away. So brace yourself for your judgment day and give up Ignorance is bliss it seems, ‘til the veils put up to make you think that the darkness that you feel inside is just a trick inside your mind Your time is coming Your end is near As the sun in the west lowers down, darkness reigns down on you now What will it take to make you see that you’ll always be lost and never free?

A New Moon 04:04
So this was your true face all along You hide behind a mask and a coward’s song What face do you think that you’ll wear today? One that lies? One that cries? You’re fucking insane Well I’m not one to stand for this, and it’s obvious you’ve made things run amiss The acts committed by your hiss are deserving of the devil’s kiss You are a virus poisoning the world How can you bear to live this way looking down on everyone you can’t manipulate? I hope you choke on the smoke of your blazing ego and suffocate You’ve never had any pure intentions You’ve gone too far astray You’ll never take anything from me Your power, your vengeance, it’s all a dream You’ve dug your grave, now listen to me You’ve dug your grave You’re dead to me You’re just a shell, a hollow vessel that will surely rot in Hell A connection to a shattered past, living your life in a house of glass Now you’re throwing all these threats like stones, blaming the innocent from your false throne Don’t act surprised that your home’s destroyed, because you did this on your own What’s the difference anyway? There’s no way that you’ll make it through another day There’s so little hope left for you All your lies, Karma cries, and your nightmares are now realized You are cornered by your worst intentions They’re knocking at your door You have no control, alone and powerless You’re rotting from the inside out: a product of a tortured soul When all is said and done you are the plague So, kill the virus Just end it all You are the plague Just end it all You’ve picked your poison, now pull the trigger Go on ahead, do us all a favor Nothing lasts forever when you sell your soul to the highest bidder What are you waiting for? Pull the fucking trigger…

Yes//No 03:19
What’s it gonna be bitch? You’re standing right in front of me With empty eyes its no surprise that the tables have been turned on me Now look and see this web we weave; its verging on insanity The monsters living in our heads will be the death of you and me Everything I knew seems like a lie after what I’ve been put through I’m searching for the light that could finally bring me home to you But something isn’t right; the monster inside has taken you I can’t bear the thought of losing you This seems like a charade, but it takes us over quietly to fester and create incarnations of hypocrisy If our eyes just could see that this place is not what it seems to be, then we could be set free eternally We have to find some way out of here Lost and never found; as captives trapped inside their minds Where does this nightmare end? I can’t find my way back home to the place I call my own Stranded in the sea of the damned Run as fast as you motherfucking can, and find a place to hide to rid the demons from your mind Don’t ever look back to the past, stand your ground, keep your head held high Don’t ever forget who you are Wake up to reality…

Grim 02:54
I cannot feel a thing anymore I will lurk this world forevermore Over and over, lost in disorder Cloaked and somber, I’ve lost the war There’s no escaping this maze we’ve been running My mind is racing There’s no end in sight I feel like I’ve come undone The end is near, I’ll soon be gone As I sink its plain to see that no one will remember me I never wanted this to be I never wanted it to be like this Over and over, lost in disorder Cloaked and somber, I’ve lost the war Living in fear of meeting our maker The world’s grown colder; the reaper is near…

Eerie 02:14
I have nowhere left to run…dead ends at every turn The devil’s reach will drag me down to the depths of hell It’s over now I feel like I’ve come undone The end is near, I’ll soon be gone As I sink its plain to see that no one will remember me Colder, colder, body’s going numb Contorting, shaking, what have I done? I feel my lungs fill with water I cannot hold out much longer…

Good Bye 04:41
Will I ever get out of here alive? Will I ever get out of here? I’m sick of living life surrounded by this Hell; my soul’s no longer grounded Take me away; get me out of my head It’s a motherfucking mess; I’d much rather be dead But it’s no use now; my blood’s been bled And there’s no bullet in the pistol that I put to my head Oh, here we go, let’s put on a show to the world so they all will know Call the doctor, sedate me, diagnose me insane You’ll all turn a blind eye because you’re living in vain We are alone, the tortured souls, with nothing left to guide us but a sick sense of woe The pain we hold inside will never cease or subside This is the end of the world we know I am all alone, so cold, and I’m walking down a narrow road When there’s nothing left for me here, I cant make it on my own Cutting the skin down to the bone just so I wont feel so alone Where is the meaning in this feeling that’s taking its toll? I'm still here searching desperately, yet there's nothing to remind me to not forget how to breathe The minutes pass like days and turn me into a slave to the bitter kiss of a loveless disease Feeling this helpless is routine for me, with nothing holding me down to my sanity When all hope is lost, its so plain to see that nothing that can be done to be redeemed Everything is gone and I’ve lost all control to the overwhelming torture of a blackened soul And the world that lies around me now turns to ash as a bleak and frigid notion washes over me In the end, the truth is overwhelming that this calloused, dying world is what’s controlling me And the place that I once found to be a comforting home makes me wish that I would have died long ago This is good bye. GOOD BYE.
