Left Alive 04:28
Left Alive A lonely citadel, Some distant past that is haunting within. Silent place of confinement, Built by saints to incarcerate sin. Liars and thieves, Forced to claim redemption before the end, Shackled and left alone in the catacombs of the dead. Locked away from the outside world. Monitored inside Lifeless cells in the undergrowth. Ears of glass clinging to their every word, Witnesses that outlast Tales of mortal prisoners. Four merciless walls Closing in on trembling bodies, Deranged, futile calls of the minds grasping only the pain. Captors have vanished And cell doors unlocked away from the abyss. Sinners unable to leave, Awaited there death's lenient kiss.

Turned to Dust How did she sleep through the night, Floating on her own blood, Spitting life away. The river consumed what was left, Only her soul had not fled, So determined to stay. Comfortable smell of the end While she's losing her sight, And dissolving the mind. Fearing the depths of the fall, No one is hearing her call From the blackness she's found. Visions that have been forgotten Are coming to life As she's ready to die. Awaiting the judgement, Future won't bring what you please, No point fighting the lie. Devoured by time And then spit from the earth Like fire becoming a breeze. Losing her piece of existence, Just splatters and sounds, Until everyone leaves. Watching the limbs turn to dust. Tendency for her nostalgic lust. Restless awakening from her dreamless pain. The flame made of hate, rising once again.

A Place of Tranquility Poisonous gases put them to sleep, In this place of tranquility. These pages portray The dying alone, Piles of bodies defiling the stone. Departed at dawn, At least they inherit Hatred for all of those years yet to come. Constructing a world by raising the earth, Turn it into fear. Your sorrowful bones will build those walls A thousand miles from here. Revolving around in a bright white beam, Chasing you across a continuous dream. Thoughts are forever, Consuming the sane, Devastated remains of what never became. Souls are still trapped below the floor, Scratching the concrete and begging for more. Kings giving birth to destructive devices And queens laying their heads to rest. Generations sentenced to eternal service Repose in the ground, They've been hunted down. Transformed into ferrous cores, They meet in another war. Constructing a world by raising the earth, Turn it into fear. Your sorrowful bones have built those walls A thousand times before.

Challenger 04:28
Challenger Scream, heard across the dying universe, Calling out to you. Clean out corroded guns, barrels gleaming in the sun, The challenger is arriving soon. Omniscient creature, Advancing towards a world decaying. A bloodstained feature, Horizon filled with a scent of death. Those who are left to oppose He bids to bind to his will. Men seeking eternity chose: Defy him and never kneel. At last he rose up, defeated, Teared open, paraded for all to see. Boundless warriors he had needed To grow into what's going to be. Renaissance of freedom, a mirage before your eyes. The solar being's never satisfied. Myths of his endeavor contaminating craving minds, Creating frantic slaves of time.
