Through Aching Aeons

The weight is on your shoulders And the path is straight ahead But no one has come this far to guide you No one's here to lead the way To beg forgiveness - and purify the soul To carve your mark - into the soil Our hands are tied - our eyes are blind Our hands are tied - we have lost this vision - we're still gripping for the past Some words are better left unspoken At last the silence will prevail Soaking in blood Embraced by shadows of the past When the light fades - wash the pain away Forgot to beg forgiveness - and purify the soul This silent rapture A last requiem Our hands are tied we have lost this vision - we're still gripping for the past This silent rapture The loss of virtue In isolation - the silent rapture Short of breath - the last requiem Hands are tied - gripping for the past Still mourning - the loss of virtue

Breed this chaos - like swarming flies Praise the blindness - born without eyes Smell the breath of all these demons Taste the madness in your mouth The stench of all this slavery Doomed to fail and to expire Inside the spineless kingdom they come to bleed Breed this chaos - like swarming flies Inside the spineless kingdom the crippled will shine Praise the blindness - born without eyes Inside the mass of madness the chaos will rise Watch the saint become the martyr Forsaken, crippled and betrayed, Behold this blessing Enlightened by the other side Feast of the helpless On this altar of shame Nameless forgotten belief Grows weaker and weaker To receive this unholy blessing By the paralyzed ones Once again a pathetic judgment That cannot be undone Inside the spineless kingdom the crippled will shine Feast of the helpless On this altar of shame Nameless forgotten belief Grows weaker and weaker

Every step seems to move you back, every breath feels like your last Pushing forward in this endless strive - slipping one step further down How we subside - when we can taste the end Through these aeons - through these aching times Reject the urge for closure - endure this struggle to prevail Until the end is here - the strive must triumph When all is done, when the weight on your back is dragging you down Before time runs out - we cannot leave this place Before time runs out - through aching aeons Pave your way through the darkest path Drag your cross through eternity Sense a light in the distant horizon Before time runs out - we cannot leave this place Before time runs out - through aching aeons Through aching aeons How we subside - when we can taste the end Eternal strive - through aching aeons When time runs out - we cannot end this infinite march When all is done - this cross is carved into our souls We must - endure - these aching aeons Eternal strive - through aching aeons

A twisted turn, a painful warp of life A burning pain, the emptiness unveil Closer - step by step and day by day Father - out of reach it slips away The panic comes alive It all becomes unreal Can't hide, can't shut down, Dragged through this void of despair A crippled dream, a broken soul remain A downward spiral - will take you down Closer - step by step and day by day Father - out of reach it slips away Sickening - a breath away Brace yourself for a new day Can't see through the shadows Can't find the way to go A fragile hope is trembling Dragged through this void of despair The ashes of what remains With trembling hands I move away Loosing grip yet once again Something is closing in Helpless in this embrace Helpless in this embrace The ashes of what remains With trembling hands I move away Loosing grip yet once again I'm cut wide open I'm cut wide open With trembling hands I move away Loosing grip yet once again I'm cut wide open I'm cut wide open

Inside this storm we cannot breathe the sheltered peace is deceptive Revert to silence when no one dares to speak Just a breath away - we are choking In this dark premonition - it is all out of hand Uprising of fear when the savior is dying Another day will dawn upon the ones who feel this tension This fear will feed us all until we choke on this intimidation Still inside the storm Watch you try to heal - it's fragile One day closer now - beneath the bleeding sky This bliss is fragile Life is at stake - but no one is bothered Another day will dawn upon the ones who feel this tension This fear will feed us all until we choke on this intimidation Hold your breath - now it's divine Trapped in a sickening dance The sky will fall upon us all This will make you bleed And mourn what you lose Curse that you are left all alone Still inside the storm Watch you try to heal - it's fragile One day closer now - beneath the bleeding sky We fall together

Slither on your way down Staring without the glow Scratching at the surface Fingers carve until they bleed Hovering above Carving holes into your soul When this beautiful companion Push you further down below Amputation of the mind Cleansing - by the hand of the believer Moving towards the edge now Closer to what we fear Scratching at the surface Feed our minds until we starve Suffocate in this maze - breathing dust into your lungs Gaze upon salvation - as you beg upon your knees Slither - downwards With blinded eyes Slither on your way down Staring without the glow Scratching at the surface Fingers carve until they bleed Hovering above Carving holes into your soul When this blessing turns to dust And this beautiful companion Push you further down below And carve a hole into your soul

We feed the starving minds Make them run in circles All imploding now - decay and dissolution Empty eyes reflects a twisted shape of innocence We drown in doubt together devouring humiliation Breeding life - in denial Crucifixion of the soul To stop this bleeding deep inside Turn away - when it falls apart Starving mind - race in circles Drown in doubt - devouring humiliation This blissful ignorance will bring us comfort Turn your face away When they fall you turn away This blindness will bring us peace But no one will come for you To stop your bleeding This blindness will be your fall The guilt will devour us all Strive through a new beginning Overwhelming - This weight becomes your curse Reach down - Unfold Breeding life - in denial Crucifixion of the soul To stop this bleeding deep inside

Numb the pain that is in us all This is the only way to heal Beneath the surface of a bleeding soul We breath the ashes as we fall I see the way - before it's broken down and gone I hear the words of a twisted burned out sou Until the pain is gone We're left alone Until the pain is gone We're all alone Eyes turn red - out of reach. We breathe the ashes as we fall Beneath the surface we try to breathe Drive a nail into this open wound Day by day it's getting worse Crawling further back into the void Pushing everything away Share your pain and erase the blame What's the point when it's too late Moving forward and embrace the end Your only exit is unknown We breathe the ashes as we fall Drive a nail into this open wound Day by day it's getting worse Crawling further back into the void Pushing everything away No one will ever be there - to help wash the blood from your hands No one will ever be there To help wash the blood from your hands And no one will ever be there To fix what is broken To stop you from falling

Burns like a blistering plague The end begins with all of us Crawl through the smoldering soil Make your way into the cold Wrapped in retribution This is a contest for the sick - a feast for the weak Strive towards a distant horizon Ignore the scars left in your path Leave all your lingering hope Seek salvation on your own These sins will never be forgiven In time this wounds bleed us dry Make your way into the cold now This shattered dream just flows away By these lies - the past shall rise Shattered virtue - depart with you Crawl through the smoldering soil Make your way into the cold Leave all your lingering hope This shattered dream just flows away Wrapped in retribution This is a feast for the weak By these lies - the past shall rise The virtue - flows away Shattered - our departure I fall with you Our trace will fade Depart with your Our trace will face
