The cold embrace of this dark night A cry cut short, death within sight And you will never know What lay behind my eyes For what is left is but a shade Of your disguise At my birth the reaper came to claim I never rad a name, I never had a name You know that whisper in your ears I know the taste of your tears I know the taste of your tears In death is life, in death is life Don't believe their lies, in death is life At my birth the reaper came to claim I never had a name, I never had a name You know that whisper in your ears I know the taste of your tears I know the taste of your tears

Chronos! You don't hold me back Unlike the ones you've devoured I will live on forever My words are decades My speech is eternal My mouth the cold void. The Gods have fled, new powers reign The sky strikes the earth as atlas lets 60 Chronos! We are not mocked Behold the celestial rot, sublime Subordination Now look on my works, ye mighty And despair Proceed. This shadow of life Devoid of sensation Chronos! We have lost it all We bow down and drink from the Lethe All alone with nothing left But emptiness. The Gods have fled, new powers reign Atlas lets 60

In an age of iron and rust Broken men lay down to turn to oust In this age of iron and rust That which once stood proud is lost Willing to lose what might be lost Neither break nor bend no matter the cost In an age of iron and rust Broken men lay down to turn to oust In this age of iron and rust That which once stood proud is lost Taken by the hounds, cast into the pit Fading away with every breath You've entered an age of death All that's left is colourless But ye will never break, no matter the cost In an age of iron and rust Broken men lay down to turn to dust In this age of iron and rust That which once stood proud is lost

All this time we’ve waited for you to show your faces We see you now for what you really are Betrayers and scum, you sold us down the river The craven’s work is done, and you bask in your pride Miscreants, you will fool us no more Now look what they did to us Look what they stole from us We live like beasts in a city of ash When rebellion becomes a duty all you knew is gone Through hazes, we take in a new dawn For years we have strived, now we gather the pieces The time has come, the resolve increases The water is tainted, we drink and we forget Like Lazarus, we rise, and though we must die a second time The will to go on sends us forth once more When rebellion becomes a duty all you knew is gone Through hazes, we take in a new dawn For years, we have strived, now we gather the pieces The time has come, the resolve increases Look what they did to us Look what they stole from us Never, never, never again Flesh knows the pain, it doesn’t forget Like Lazarus, we rise, and though we must die a second time The will to go on sends us forth in search of the sublime Miscreants, you will fool us no more Never, never, never again

And all our hope fades away We give in to dismay And we approach our dying day The brightness from our hearth is gone We’re at the crossroads, shadows long We’ve burned our bridges, and we’ve forgotten who we were All our beauty turned to vanity Cowards in depthless disguise They’ve taken me away from my home Our unity torn to shreds Our nation shipwrecked We waver in the storm Archaic ideals are lost to view Known to a hidden few Buried in unmarked graves We’re headed for disaster We’re headed for undoing The enemy lurks within Similar only in skin Vicious beasts our next of kin The wretched eidola Icons that we portrayed Beacons shattered and grey All our beauty turned to vanity Cowards in depthless disguise They’ve taken me away from my home The wretched eidola

Dare you step outside the circle And turn your back on their spiteful eyes They call us thieves. Whores and heretics And they would tear us down At any chance they had. Burn the spirit within Leave me hopeless with nothing to win Burn the spirit within With nothing within you've got nothing to win I spit on your morality And I eagerly wait to walk away I have torn my soul in ten thousand shreds And just a look at one would leave you blind Thieves, whores, heretics –What is there to lose They drag me down And I lash out in desperation The more I see of you perverse virtues The more I know of what to do Burn the spirit within Leave me hopeless with nothing to win Burn the spirit within With nothing within you've got nothing to win

I wear a thousand faces And you envy each and every one The Devil, the priest, the puritan harlot And I search for sensation and the sublime We live among the pure debris The grand machine turns endlessly They gaze at me and try to perceive As if these masks were meant to deceive Wandering aimlessly. What hand guides you now Wandering aimlessly. Is this what was intended. Wandering aimlessly. No sins to hold you back. We live among the pure debris The grand machine turns endlessly As if these masks were meant to deceive Now tell me, what do you long for Let me know what you dream of The Devil, the priest, the puritan harlot Let your conviction shine through Now show me what you want us to be Wandering aimlessly. No sins to hold you back.

After the take of winter In the shrouded twilight It seems like strange delusion All this a withered illusion Like an insomniac's dream Or like a madman's scheme In the house of sand Memories stir once more And all that was forgotten Now burns with vengeful craving I turn from one to another And face myself, there is no other Shattering my will I'll take you down with me After the take of winter In the shrouded twilight In the house of sand Memories stir once more And all that was forgotten Now burns with vengeful craving I turn from one to another And face myself, there is no other After the take of winter

When even apathy is drained away Even my shadow casts a shadow And I hear the voices of the deep You reek of mortality I revel in fatality This noose fits you as yell And in the void you will dwell To admire the boundless plains Colossal wreck is what remains You seek divinity I revel in infinity You reek of mortality I revel in fatality And when you cast it all away You were led astray And you know that you will weep When you hear the voices of the deep

For a moment you gaze through the window For a moment you see that you linger To see through the eyes of dead Return to the vale of sorrow To see what others have lost Where will we be tomorrow Not drink deep my friends, For the worst is yet to come And the mother mourns her child And the lover mourns her lost one The stranger arrives on the scene All tears wiped clean Shrouded in mystery Who knows where he's been You hide away where no man can see Out of sight and mind A pitiful freak, vapid and weak There's a void behind your eyes This day will come again and again This day will bring you only pain This day will bring you only rain The rain The stranger arrives on the scene All tears wiped clean Shrouded in mystery Who knows what he's seen You hide away where no man can see Out of sight and mind A pitiful freak, vapid and weak There's a void behind your eyes For a moment you gaze through the window For a moment you see that you linger
