Charred Walls of the Damned
Album • 2016
I close my eyes soon asleep I will find myself At the door where dreams are waiting for me To realize a wish, a compromise my mind has in store A friend I had before I was here A whisper close behind Familiar voice reminds With every moving thought A chance that we have sought You're in my dreams at night Turn into the light From my past you see me In a singular reality Focusing my eyes into you, into you Only now, only here Only thoughts remain true Face the past the ghost in the glass Standing at my door patiently waiting for That second chance, one more passing glance In time the mind is near and the thoughts disappear With every moving thought A chance that we have sought You're in my dreams at night Turn into the light From my past you see me In a singular reality Focusing my eyes into you, into you Only now, only here Only thoughts remain true Only now, only here Only thoughts remain true Only now, only here Only thoughts remain true!

I see you trapping into this electric world As your brain melts into glass Thoughts focusing upon a dark screen of deceit A life that’s paid in full and wallowing in grief Stepping through the mindless threshold Now amongst the soulless Stepping through the mindless threshold Now amongst the soulless When there’s no will to control your life anymore You’re just a puppet on a string For you the willing one, now you have come undone Wrapped up inside this world and staring at the sun Stepping through the mindless threshold Now amongst the soulless Stepping through the mindless threshold Now amongst the soulless Where are your thoughts your inspiration? Living like a machine – no determination Pre-programmed this life – this is no longer yours Your mind begs for mercy as your soul ignores! Stepping through the mindless threshold Now amongst the soulless Stepping through the mindless threshold Now amongst the soulless Now amongst the soulless Oh, now amongst the soulless Oh, now amongst the soulless Soulless

In one hundred years, I’ll be gone (I’ll be gone) What now remains is this song (is this song) Will anyone know of my name? The life, the years and all the pain If nothing else awaits us there All that we have is forever here In words or rhyme images of time (images of time) What the future holds for all mankind This is my afterlife, I hope understand My soul, this song is in your hands Long after we are dust, surviving through decay What happens now it matters not The pain endured, victories sought! The story told, the life remains Deciding our eternal fate! This is my afterlife, I hope understand My soul, this song is in your hands Long after we are dust, surviving through decay!

I lie with my eyes closed tight My dreams are nightmares tonight Breaching into my reality Squeezing my chest so I can’t breathe... Not knowing you can’t be real Feeling what I always feel Pain comes into me dramatically Until I wake that’s when I see Rising from the pain Disappearing from myself again Wake me when I take My last breath away Pain – waking me from my dreams Pain – nothing is as it seems Pain – causing me fear at night An inner war I cannot fight Hand wrapping around my throat You’re quickly taking control I’m so helpless, you’ve taken me Into a world where I can’t breathe Rising from the pain Disappearing from myself again Wake me when I take My last breath away Pain – waking me from my dreams Pain – nothing is as it seems Pain – causing me fear at night An inner war I cannot fight As I catch my breath, I awaken to a day unknown As I catch my breath, I step out from the shadows (shadows...) As I catch my breath, I am leaving my dreams filled with ghosts As I catch my breath, my body becomes their host (host...) Rising from the pain Disappearing from myself again Wake me when I take My last breath away Pain – waking me from my dreams Pain – nothing is as it seems Pain – causing me fear at night An inner war I cannot fight Pain – waking me from my dreams Pain – nothing is as it seems Pain – causing me fear at night An inner war I cannot fight I awaken to a day unknown As I catch my breath, I step out from the shadows (shadows...)

So close one day yet unknown the next A bond so strong never believed they could test Brought together by a sound of beasts inside our minds I thought would remain for all time Ungrateful they're become right before my eyes The fire put out by a chemical disguise Keeping me away and shaping my past Never will I fall for the dead in the grass Fading far away Sounds disappear in the gray Lies on their tongues I can see Stealing their will to be free Twisting their minds desperately Fighting their control over me Following the message into seas of blue and red Leaving pain where you tread Filling my ears with the sounds that I dread Not forgetting the ones who always led Fading far away Sounds disappear in the gray Fading far away Sounds disappear in the gray Lies on their tongues I can see Stealing their will to be free Twisting their minds desperately Fighting their control over me

Darkness we have left behind This journey shared so many times Beneath the waters black and grey The cold welcomes us here to stay The smell of emptiness surrounds The putrid stench of underground The dead still seek the ones they meet And keep them in this world so deep Reach into the light Open your mind to sight Reach into the light... Creatures roaming tracks we take Sacrifice the deal we make Without you I will not move Throughout this abysmal womb The energy surrounding me Pieces of my history Inside of the air we breathe The sweet release can you believe! Reach into the light Open your mind to sight Reach into the light The darkness that we left behind Reach into the light Open your mind to sight!

A rip in my flesh when the teeth sink in It's far too late, I don't see you, my friend Not a matter of if, just a matter of when You're pulling me down just to feed me again As the pain of my hunger calls from within An insane bloodlust, a feast born of mortal sin Oh, won't you tear me down now? Oh, can't you break the sound now? I know it's over and the time is short No control, this is my last resort Cutting into myself just to satisfy Crawling into the dirt, feeding myself to the fire! Oh, won’t you tear me down now? Oh, can’t you break the sound now? Oh, won’t you tear me down now? Oh, can’t you break the sound now? Oh, won’t you tear me down now? Oh, can’t you break the sound now?

Turning back, follow a different path Treading water, flowing black You call to me from a distant shore But now I’m sinking, I’m no more Living in the shadow of yesterday, sinking in the deep (sinking in the deep) Living in the shadow of yesterday, is how you saved me, is how you saved me I chose this life that I now feel Did it end, is all this real? A decision made that day I couldn’t make it all the way Living in the shadow of yesterday, sinking in the deep (sinking in the deep) Living in the shadow of yesterday, is how you saved me, is how you saved me Is this me? The life I lead? Is this our reality? Is this me? The life I lead? Is this our reality? Living in the shadow of yesterday, sinking in the deep (sinking in the deep) Living in the shadow of yesterday, is how you saved me (how you saved me) Save me

Scanning the wasteland for signs of life Feeling you’re constantly left behind... You wonder if you should just leave or stay... Why should you care about them anyway...? Time has passed beyond you now... An empty soul with no vision or goal Feeding on time, feeds on your mind Burning your eyes, the tears that you cry One day you’ll know the damage you’ve done to your soul An empty soul with no vision or goal Feeding on time, feeds on your mind Burning your eyes, the tears that you cry One day you’ll know the damage you’ve done to your soul An empty soul with no vision or goal Feeding on time, feeds on your mind Burning your eyes, the tears that you cry One day you’ll know the damage you’ve done to your soul
