Charred Walls of the Damned

A desolate silence, deaths in the air Surrounded by pain, a terrified stare From the dark eyes of hell, a sky black and gray No hope for life No hope for today This ghost town stands Overwhelmed by decay Suffering on poisoned ground Suffering in this Ghost Town Dark clouds from above, bring darkness and doom Effortlessly shattering, what lies in its course A deafening roar, it feels no remorse No hope for life No hope for today This Ghost Town stands Overwhelmed by decay Suffering on poisoned ground Suffering in this Ghost Town Mother Earth has bestowed their fate Mercilessly punishing those who desecrate A lifetime of memories swept away in the dust Dreams of the innocent lay in ruin and rust An invinsible hunter infecting the unknowing Man planting seeds that the reaper is sowing Sad eyes look upon this town As they dwell on unclean ground Mountains of sorrow rising forth Blood red tears pouring from its source A shadow of its former self Sitting at the mouth of hell Empty roads leading to empty souls The dark underground swallowing whole Lives once so fertile now all but lost No hope for life No hope for today This ghost town stands Overwhelmed by decay Suffering on poisoned ground Suffering in this Ghost Town

You are the one who will never leave me You are the one who will not deceive me Guiding me through those years of hate and doubt When betrayed you held me up throughout Every word that flows from thought to pen Carries my pride and the pain within Every note flows from soul to song A piece of me is placed where it belongs Every time I feel my life is lost Rivers of anguish that you helped me cross Every memory swimming in my mind Of an unforsaken place and time My life once so full of wrath Walking a dead end path Holding on to words of hope You came to save my soul Every day filled with darkness and rain You were there to ease my endless pain Every non believer laughing in my face Negative thoughts that you've helped me replace My soul you've renewed As I've learned to create you From the abyss in which I was damned You rescued me with your healing hands Each moment in time captured in rhyme Pieces of life woven in my mind Every mask I wear when i'm alone Hides a fear that only few have known Every pleasure that you bless me with Writes a story I cannot forget Every moment now till my last breath I'll look up to you with no regret Inspiration you have give me Together as one we wills always be My life once so full of wrath Walking a dead end path Holding on to words of hope You came to save my soul My soul you've renewed As I've learned to create you From the abyss in which I was damned You rescued me with your healing hands Each moment in time captured in rhyme Pieces of life woven in my mind From the abyss in which I was damned You rescued me with your healing hands Each moment in time captured in rhyme Pieces of life woven in my mind

Eyes closed memories rushing in Longing for freedom and the way things were then No concern for what tomorrow would bring Working to create our machine Life is short and time is ever moving Living for the moment Fate in our hands Time's shifting sands Places we have been We'll do it all again Fate in our hands Times come to leave this place Venturing into the night's cold embrace Unaware of what lies ahead Refusing to dwell on that which we dread Life is short and time is ever moving Living for the moment Fate in our hands Time's shifting sands Places we have been We'll do it all again Fate in our hands

One decade born into this world When you become a part of me Through my ears and into my soul The thundering rhythm of a life now free Venting Out My Frustrations You're The One My Theraphy Not giving up even when the blood flows Tearing my skin while the passion grows Splinters of dedication lay at my feet Hours of execution I must repeat Learning from those who inspire me The masters of their craft Watching and learning through persistence My insecurities out in half You gave me strength You gave me focus You'll always be part of me Not giving up even when the blood flows Tearing my skin while the passion grows Splinters of dedication lay at my feet Hours of execution I must repeat When others abandoned You were always there Faithful and unmoving This life we share Building the courage to sit with you In front of strangers' watching eyes Becoming one with you as I grow My second nature until I die Surrounding me you stand proudly Taking over my body Not giving up even when the blood flows Tearing my skin while the passion grows Splinters of dedication lay at my feet Hours of execution I must repeat Not giving up even when the blood flows Tearing my skin while the passion grows Splinters of dedication lay at my feet Hours of execution I must repeat

Struggling in a world so cruel Trying hard not to fail Sometimes making it hrough the day Is like walking on nails Traveling down incertain highways Making my way through the haze Leaving all I've known behind me Never knowing what I might find Sitting in a scorching room Sweating out my pain The price to pay for devotion Fire flowing through my veins Traveling down incertain highways Making my way through the haze Leaving all I've known behind me Never knowing what I might find Dreams becoming clearer now Light shining through the rain Determination leading me To the voices singing in my brain Opportunities I've not missed Doing what I hope is right To chase what seemed impossible But is now within my light Traveling down incertain highways Making my way through the haze Leaving all I've known behind me Never knowing what I might find Every day leaving scars Realities they seem so harsh Lessons learned from my mistakes My soul it will not break

Manifestations of the Supernatural Seldom seen and seldom heard Wishful thinking by those who are searching Willing to look past the absurd Proof of life Beyond what lies Before our frightened eyes What awaits us when we die Dark walls that surround my mind Seeking the unknown in a skeptic world Finding it all hard to believe Invinting contact with those around us Look at the darkness tell me what you see Proof of life Beyond what lies Before our frightened eyes What awaits us when we die Dark walls that surround my mind Manifestations of the Supernatural Many say they've seen them I don't believe them I'm trying hard to find the proof So scared of what lies On the other side Set my mind at ease Show yourself to me Proof of life Beyond what lies Before our frightened eyes What awaits us when we die Dark walls that surround my mind

Within the safety of Four Walls The Truth now can be told No secrets need be kept No longer I withhold Voices Within The Walls Troubles now seem so small Together well not fall Voices Within The Walls Building Our Trust Building Our Strength Believing In Ourselves While others close their eyes well see The path where silence dwells Closing the door on negativity The world starts coming down Shutting off that which harms us Were silencing the sounds Voices Within The Walls Troubles now seem so small Together well not fall Voices Within The Walls Voices Within The Walls Troubles now seem so small Together well not fall Voices Within The Walls Building Our Trust Building Our Strength Believing In Ourselves While others close their eyes well see The path where silence dwells Making it right when all seems wrong Uniting now will make us strong Make us strong Make us strong

A twisted vision blending into creation The dark gift weaving an untold rhyme A fascination with the human complex Twisting the frames of our delicate minds Holding our hope and our sanity hostage A world so alien yet so real Not straying from their passionate vision Blending thoughts and fears for others to feel Look at the darkest eyes What do you see Death, Life, Pain and Horror On our fears they feed The Darkest Eyes Staring back at me Beyond they rise Taking my mind willingly The Darkest Eyes They're creating brilliantly My thoughts baptized What I've read and what I've seen Surrounded by the unseen Infecting our reality Evil words and deeds Fulfilling our primal needs Unspeakable things rising from their pages Blackening our hearts and disturbing our souls Descriptions of a future vile and hopeless Disturbing thoughts now taking hold Look at the darkest eyes What do you see Death, Life, Pain and Horror On our fears they feed The Darkest Eyes Staring back at me Beyond they rise Taking my mind willingly The Darkest Eyes They're creating brilliantly My thoughts baptized What I've read and what I've seen

Dreading the day that I know will soon come The only way I can face it is to Make myself numb Make myself numb Approaching the gate that leads me here Rational thoughts overcome by fear Overcome by fear Overcome by fear Stepping through the threshold a frightened soul Touching the beast as it swallows me whole My destiny I can't control No turning back now all i can do is wait The skill of one soul now is deciding my fate Clenching my fist the beast begins to shake A force of nature how much more can I take Can I take Into ominous clouds of black I fly Falling and turning while young souls cry Young souls cry No longer I am in control I am in control Closing my eyes not looking below Not looking below Hours of emptiness now lie ahead No turning back Facing that which I dread Fear in the Sky How many times have I tried To understand Fate taken from my hands Why am I here Why do I fear Its out of my control And I feel so alone I think of those below As spirits warm my soul Is it all in my head This agony I dread I stand in cold despair While silent strangers stare Now hoping for an end Waiting for my descent No turning back now all i can do is wait The skill of one soul now is deciding my fate Sinister skies now becoming clear Ominous thoughts starts to disappear Disappear Now drawing closer to what makes me whole I'm once again the one who's in control In Control
