The Wreckage of Stars
I, the burning arrow for the other shore And seething with a callous rage A sacred object with a hollow core And actor on an empty stage We from the shadow will extend our hands And turn our gaze towards the flame The pathways darken as the poison spreads We languish in this land of waste I wish for a great mistake To carry us away And for an old beginning Where everything's the same May this strip our minds away And lead us to our early graves; Contorted and exhausted faces, Soiled and ashamed Writhe Your brittle sanctum where your madness grows A crumbling heart cursed by faith Within, our visions are like fractured glass We lick the venom from the blade The red moon rises as the black rain falls Revealing the blood upon our hands The past we harken as the gateways close Release the plague upon the lands We saw the signs And we towed the line We're lost reflections of forgotten time Realizing, despising I wish for a great mistake To carry us away And for an old beginning Where everything's the same May this strip our minds away And lead us to our early graves; Contorted and exhausted faces, Soiled and ashamed

Here it comes again, the fractured one of hostile beauty In this life, it takes the light from our eyes Though we try, we are not made to walk away from this, And we gaze inside, realizing all that's died Binding, enwinding, seducing, stolen light from our eyes Who would not hate you for all that you'll never find? Fear all that's near you and bless all you leave behind (Fractured) Binding, enwinding, seducing, stolen light from our eyes Who would not hate you for all that you'll never find? Fear all that's near you and bless all you leave behind (Fractured) Forced to defend a broken process, a pitiful friend Let us pretend that this is never needs to end Here it comes again, the fractured one of hostile beauty In this life, it takes the light from our eyes Though we try, we are not made to walk away from this, And we gaze inside, realizing all that's died Binding, enwinding, seducing, stolen light from our eyes Who would not hate you for all that you'll never find? Fear all that's near you and bless all you leave behind (Fractured)

Bereft inside; Malignant guards the shell with feeble pride Body lulled to sleep; bound Bury forms to keep... Shrieking crooked words; near Offer all you hold... In the end an object upon a burning altar... Body lulled to sleep; bound Bury forms to keep... Shrieking crooked words; near Offer all you hold... Worship the malignant, this beacon of worthlessness; Oppose all you love The glowing one, she moves with fear in her lying eyes; She holds all you love In the end an object upon a burning* altar... Body lulled to sleep; bound Bury forms to keep... Shrieking crooked words; near Offer all you hold... *The actual lyric sung is "broken", not "burning".

All we own is regret between birth and death, The human lie manifest There is no balance to upset, and no one to forget; This human lie manifest (Turning and turning) Time is arrow Expand and embrace us Time is arrow Contract and erase us All we own is regret between birth and death, The human lie manifest There is no balance to upset, and no one to forget; This human lie manifest (Turning and turning) Time is arrow Expand and embrace us Time is arrow Contract and erase us Here is something to remember This will all return forever You are nothing but a filter; Broken and mislead forever All we own is regret between birth and death, The human lie manifest There is no balance to upset, and no one to forget; This human lie manifest (Turning and turning)

The place where I have always been free has begun to consume me I stand along this windswept shore and feel it more and more You've made your promises, that I have drowned inside The windswept shore is silent in absence of the tide The place where I have always been free has begun to consume me I stand along this windswept shore and feel it more and more A spirit frayed, a bond was broken; a sudden switch, words were spoken Below the waves there is proof that we have never known the way You've made your promises, that I have drowned inside The windswept shore is silent in absence of the tide ,,,And we stand still, nothing worth changing No cause to seek within our minds There will never be another dawn here A time where I'd feel, a time for taking; and the path to freedom passed us by Watch the waves and wither away here In sleep, the sea In peace, in ruin You've made your promises, that I have drowned inside The windswept shore is silent in absence of the tide

To exist is to fear Fear the I; fear the you Nothing is ever true To the eye that leads you Consequence; There is a consequence What if all you need here turns and walks away from you? What if all you love here never thinks a thing of you? Nothing is ever true To the eye that leads you This is your illness This is your brain Condense; compress all that you will never understand Repress distress, and take comfort in this malady Consequence; There is a consequence What if all you need here turns and walks away from you? What if all you love here never thinks a thing of you?

Oh, we stand in the rain And beg for a change In our idle domain While stars dance overhead, The father is dead, Though his malady spread

Behold the shape's collapse It's (sic) sacred time has passed One last desperate word, And all distinction blurred At long last... The scourge of our eyes removed for all time A box for a shell, a blank slate for the mind In stripping away our eternal days, No longer a beast. no longer a slave to the body It lies with the body Force the stone (close) Tomb of gods (close) Silence shown (close) Tomb of gods (close) Force the stone Silence shown Mind alone All is known The scourge of our eyes removed for all time A box for a shell, a blank slate for the mind In stripping away our eternal days, No longer a beast. no longer a slave to the body It lies with the body Force the stone Silence shown Mind alone All is known

I am sick man, old man, I am corpse; and I ask you for nothing As I force my way to other shores, I'll ask you for nothing Bind my hands, close my eyes; Let go of this None is chance, all is life; You know of this I am sick man, old man, I am corpse; and I ask you for nothing As I force my way to other shores, I'll ask you for nothing I'll go under, deep below the earth and purge; Tear out my innards and burn Turn the mind to darkest light and learn That none are real with human sight; This human frame, a most pathetic rite I'll purge... Purge (None are real with human sight)

Here’s to us, to the shells we've protected To our futile hopes, and the selves we've projected To shed this skin, we’ll drown in the endless waves Of all our sins and forget everything I’ll pass on, leaving rain and the stars above For you to hold; for you to love so much That you’ll destroy all the things that could have surfaced It fades away, the wreckage and our "purpose"
