The Compass
Watch me as my sight is grey Convinced your scars are dissimilar Come alive to be enslaved Chasing stars as they fall Slavery Sing your favourite lullabies We are casualties Singing 'til the day we die Watch as your unique mark fades It's gone so fast, the moment has passed Subjugated to the flames Still trapped behind the wall Slavery Sing your favourite lullabies We are casualties Singing 'til the day we die Fading brightly we collide Feeding knowledge to the wise As we mourn the sunshine Shadow people slowly are revealed You think you need the sunshine We're the frontline In the great below It's in your command Subjugated to the flames Still trapped behind the wall Slavery Sing your favourite lullabies We are casualties Singing 'til the day we die

She's got money and she pays She's not willing to get in the way Business is business and I do not really mind It's a thrill to kill them with a smile Mercy is a compromise And I won't go back on a deal …this time You're walking blind Not knowing me Your enemy One step behind You can't escape Your last mistake He's got, nothing left to say He's not, going to come back someday Business is business and I do not really mind People disappear all the time There's no need to sympathise I don't have a single regret …this time Contract for crime Forgotten profession It's natural I demonstrate A practical Human trait Walking blind

Wherever is the time Whenever the spaces are faint Whatever takes a mind Light and fade Body and the mind Archons lie in wait Following Follow you Please can I show you the way home? I've been waiting here, so long This time the pieces fall where they belong Whatever excuse you find Dignify your name A fantasy entwined The ways of faith unmade Borrowing Hollow truth Please can I show you the way home? I've been told Should've known I could be someone Standing tall Time to grow And there's never time to stop We are A call to end the Imperium Handed over to faith Hand it over in due faith Hand it over to your faith Hand it over…

Grey was the day I saw the truth Games I have played embracing you Something to love forever, I'm chasing You're not like anyone I've ever known The wait, it pulls me under, crushing everything Our time is relative The others count the numbers of days left Erasing what is left of you and me The others can't remember wasting everything I wait now everyday Forgive me, I can't help you Sometimes, I don't get it I need you. Not just your words Some say our days are numbered, I'm waiting It now feels like my lungs are closing in This hate it makes me sober, pushing everything I'm wasting everything

Tonight I'm bleeding one last time When will we bring the sun light down? The thought of persistence Keep running through my mind Just say that you're sorry Scream it in my ear Today is not your day Confined Wait for the moment Believed in your lies I close my eyes Untied I'm lost in the moment I'm free from your lies I close my eyes Wake up You're wasting the night away When will we bring the sunlight down? I sift through sands I look for signs to make it clearer

I held you once I held your body in this room Within ourselves We were compelled to come apart So full of adoration Just for you Not just a metaphor An omen We live in shadows We are hunted by the prey I saw the ones I saw your folly I saw the ones who came to you A show-and-tell The truth you sell has lost its spark Complete my violation I'm cut in two Not just a metaphor I'm broken We are wasted thoughts of yesterday Fuck the world
