We Are the Void

We are delusional To go against mortality Still we fight, love and create As the only creatures In on life's grand secret We sense the pointlessness beyond There is a void between our hands That drown the sounds of night An arrow laced with liquid darkness For every sungods heart It has always been right here Like a shadow in our blood It waits for you and me The shadow in our blood We are delusional From fictional reality To prayers for prosperity Loneliness Can we resist your pale attraction Give in to the dream with open eyes Now will this world within a world live on Another page torn from the book of strangers Who says "I" when all voices fear their own sound And who remembers the hours It has always been right here Like a shadow in our blood It waits for you and me The shadow in our blood Here in the barren and still Far from the shores of real Dreams born beyond borders On weave of thought and want Here we're invincible It has always been right here Like a shadow in our blood It waits for you and me The shadow in our blood

He takes a stand And looks his enemy in the eye This goes no further I have the upper hand This ends on my terms I challenge non-existence Every single day The end of mind End of freedom End of everything A most violent event Breaks individuality And turns out your shadow In devastating light That push against our eyes Dance to the bloodsong In dream oblivion He makes a point Of sticking to the lie This is the last time I'm now done with this I carry my nothing Every single day The end of mind End of freedom End of everything Now with reality on end The fall of all morality Dance to the bloodsong In devastating light That push against our eyes Dance to the bloodsong In dream oblivion The end of faith End of meaning End of everything

Eventually they'll come Your name has been called Out for aeons To claim the blood And salvage what remains For once we've seen the fragile nature Of things behind these windows Where nothing lives And nothing ends And seen what drives the hopeless In between their closing yellowed walls The day has come You are the fatalist The day has come You are the fatalist You walk on soil that dreams of beyond How can we fight fatigue In pre-historic sorrow? When all is preordain The cycle never ends What once had been an endless realm Of possibility and dream Now laid to waste and ruin Laid to waste again You wash your hands in blood You squander time We borrow from eternity Is it another lame excuse? The day has come You are the fatalist The day has come You are the fatalist You walk on soil that dreams of blood If nothing changes Then nothing ends Your thoughts are broken This reasoning is flawed The defense is just an act And lies are all you've got You are the fatalist You are the fatalist How easy can we see Defeat behind your argument The fatalistic smile The day has come You are the fatalist The day has come You are the fatalist You walk on soil That dreams of blood You walk the ground That screams for murder

Eyes that meet to say farewell And linger through the sleepless nights A trail of days that end in tears But I can never be there The rush of hours that never seem to end What life has dealt you cannot comprehend I am the absentee I know you're out there searching tonight I'm right here Another day and I cannot see through your eyes I'm right here How could I have known what preceded your own thoughts Wish that I could listen to what only speaks inside Every raging dissonance Each jarring note But I could never be there How could you think that I would understand When words just go around what the heart truly wants I am the absentee I know you're out there searching tonight I'm right here Another day and I cannot see through your eyes I'm right here I want to tell you Of the exploding light How everything is visible Moments before the dark I am never there I know you're out there searching tonight Another day and I'm not there Thrust with nails of conflict Anxiety and pain Through spells of anger, confusion and defeat I wish you'd see me, here in front of you But I'm not here I know you're out there searching tonight I'm right here Another day and I cannot see through your eyes Lead me right

What if you are an island of sorrow Then I'll be the raging sea What if you are the reaching trees Then I'll be the storm that with fire rages The new loneliness Your name on the door Just like a diagnose For venomous disease Man is the cemetery for unlived life All for nought The grand accusation Your face is your name Word and shield Sharp as a curse Man is the cemetery for unlived life All for nought The grand accusation You chose rejection Over thoughts of insight You take action From focus on intent And brace for impact Not waiting for the fall What cries here, cries inside Man is the cemetery of unlived life The grand accusation What if you were a country of grief With me the invading force What if you were to measure the hollow That captivates and devours you The new loneliness Your name on the door Just like a diagnose For venomous disease Man is the cemetery for unlived life The grand accusation

Do not hide your sorrow Or banish it from sight Take it out to burn Turn the pain against it In our day that holds no other What are we The fuel or the flame In a life that hides behind you What are you The fuel or the flame In the proud momentum Thrust ahead from the start Our fragile frame falls apart I hear you in my echo A few steps behind I see you in my shadow Waiting inside What if we don't question The meaning of it all The answer in our system Bound to kill the spark The moment so elusive Hangs heavy over our heads Scorns the doubting nomads That burn another trail In our day that holds no other What are we The fuel or the flame In the life that hides behind you What are you The fuel or the flame The shine of trembling stars Worlds in the distance Curse this lack of sight Into darkness without end In our day that holds no other What are we The fuel or the flame In a life that hides behind you What are you The fuel or the flame?

Why do I see her Through neverending nights Why do I see her Wearing nothing but the dark Have you come here to warn me Of what I cannot see You want to tell me something But you do not have the words I know where you live I can see it through your darkness And when you sleep I hear the heart that beats you Have you come here to warn me Of what I cannot see You want to tell me something But you do not have the words Eyes far into the distance A life that does not connect Time played well its part On strings that bind us Encounters in silence Words elude the fading night Wish I could fathom What is too hard to tell Her head hangs low In the silence of her room Her head hangs low She takes a bite out of her heart Have you come here to warn me Of what I cannot see You want to tell me something But you do not have the words

Held by winter's chokehold fast Fixed in anxiety's firm grip Frost that burn the arteries Underneath the heavy clouds The lifted sword, the broken shield The hand that drew the final word From the frozen mouth of Arkhangelsk Let them go, let them burn the world to cinders And let their heads hang down Falling through the tungsten skies The burning grounds of Arkhangelsk To the eye of judgement now One will stand in the time of the end Sun to stone, air to fire All to nothing and nothing to nil They gather, drowning in the drone Of the grinding wheels of Arkhangelsk With one word, one movement in the fabric Everything dies The storm that sweeps the world away From the frozen plains of Arkhangelsk Inherit from the morning star What others brought and the land forgot Soaring through van alien belts Through blazing stars, through dying suns Collide not now, but carry us Through the burning air of Arkhangelsk

Drink this water again That runs by without memory Where your name is lost Drink and forget yourself This featureless stream That carries your face further on These waters know you It calls you by your one true name Have you ever noticed The spaces in-between Where life is in recession And agony begins I am the call I speak inside of you I am the void That haunts you I am the howl That calls you out I am the void You rest your weary head On to the underworld And let the silent whispers Guide your waking dreams In time with the pulse Of what is long since gone The beat of the fallen Is cold already in your blood The machinery of chaos Comes alive in you Chained to the grinding wheel Of forces unseen I am the call I speak inside of you I am the void That haunts you I am the howl That calls you out I am the void You have always been between Another set of walls Outside of which the world Is watching down on you Inside the silence speaks Kept close to the endless alibi Never reaching out Never give in I am the call I speak inside of you I am the void That haunts you I am the howl That calls you out I am the void

It starts below The bile and the burning Darkness in the recipe A fire of the soul To paralyze and stranglehold Disable the design The remnants of reality In our measured time Is torn apart We carry our fear inside A space that hold the darkness We stretch our skin around To cover the abyss The smirk on our reality At the future we foresee Blood that seeks redemption In endless nights of sin Stays with the spears That pierce the blinding sun We heard from the heralds of grief That nothing remains We carry our fear inside A space that hold the darkness We stretch our skin around To cover the abyss Breaks into day Upsets the system Its in our nature to bear The hidden to the end What if this feeling contains a truth What if our dreams give way to the dogma of old What lost desires can be found No shelter No barriers between What's already inside Betrays what the surface holds We wear our lives On wires and dust Like demons of the lost Still wrapped in our own confusion The call of the abyss We carry our fear inside A space that holds the darkness We stretch our skin around To cover the abyss

Let the horizon lead Onto the ether of the night Draped across the burning heavens Flying homeward like a bird of the soul Shattered into a million brighter suns Each flare unique and rare Scattered across forever Out from creations core An end beyond compare Iridium Now is the time to leave We lie awake, we stand afire At the edge of the world Above a myriad of light Below the mantle of the stars As strangely they fall Shattered into a million brighter suns Each flare unique and rare Scattered across forever Out from creations core An end beyond compare Iridium

We throw ourselves Like rocks against the heavens To call to us attention And set our sights for higher ground Weaved within the nervous system Of our planet and the vows we keep The dormant fragments Of self-destructing code Into the emptiness Where fires cannot feed No way to hold The burden of love alive We nod at each other from across the open plain grave And go to memories to visit our own lives We hide in the bodies of greater beings Together as one in the face of endless trials You carry my life Inside you my only witness Our hands held against In suffering Into the emptiness Where fires cannot feed No way to hold The burden of love alive
