The Dark Delight
Born out of cipher and darkness Spawned from a speck with a course set in stone A part of predestined expansion Hurled through eternity we're left alone How do we view the illusion of choice Can we accept, can we ever rejoice Are we fit to decide The course of our ride A riddle in the dark An ever shooting star Is this all that we all really are Our roads intersect In paradise of the architect A journey without cause A dream that never was We're a brief shining light in the dark Our lives will connect In paradise of the architect The ever expanding horizon Leads to more questions we can't leave to rest Our time is a relative circle Is there a difference between life and death The perfect enigma that we try to break Eternity haunts us with each step we take We're not made to defraud The makers of god A riddle in the dark An ever shooting star Is this all that we all really are Our roads intersect In paradise of the architect A journey without cause A dream that never was We're a brief shining light in the dark Our lives will connect In paradise of the architect Our journey was never of a greater cause What matters is choosing what should be passed on Then even after we're gone We will live on A riddle in the dark An ever shooting star Is this all that we all really are Our roads intersect In paradise of the architect A journey without cause A dream that never was We're a brief shining light in the dark Our lives will connect In paradise of the architect Our lives will connect In paradise of the architect

Revelation, devastation Opened up eyes blinded from the start I was the child born in the dark of your heart Instigator, manipulator You baptized my life through burning pain Now I can never feel again But I see right through to the real you Shot out of dark comes a fiery serenade Through your heart as your innocence fade away You are no longer colored in shades of grey I see your way You're in fact all through pitch black Out of silence comes defiance Risen to deny all that you are I'm the man forged in the fires of your war Vindicator, a liberator I have come to set you free through pain You'll be forced to feel again Brace for I am here to undo you Shot out of dark comes a fiery serenade Through your heart as your innocence fade away You are no longer colored in shades of grey I see your way You're in fact all through pitch black Shot out of dark comes a fiery serenade Through your heart as your innocence fade away You are no longer colored in shades of grey It's not your way No, you're in fact all through pitch black as night All your innocence fade away You are no longer colored in shades of grey I see your way Right through to the real you You're in fact all through pitch black

Have you seen your bridges burn, your smoke is everywhere A sudden smell of cyanide is fuming through the air You have failed to realize severities at stake Finally the cracks have shown and the ice begins to break I will not tread on these waters no more I'll stand beside you for your curtain call Eyes open wide as you fall From fire to ashes from sound to silence I'll be beside for it all From fire to ashes you burn From sound into silence you turn I don't have to justify my ways or feel regret I made you into what you are and now you want some of my respect Before you stabbed me in the back should've thought of what's at stake The ticking bomb that you've stepped upon has now started to awake You will not tread on my waters no more I'll stand beside you for your curtain call Eyes open wide as you fall From fire to ashes from sound to silence I'll be beside for it all From fire to ashes you burn From sound into silence you turn I'll stand beside you for your curtain call Eyes open wide as you fall From fire to ashes from sound to silence I'll be beside for it all From fire to ashes you burn From sound into silence you turn From fire to ashes you burn From sound into silence you turn

Chases Dreaming of far distant places Traces of words never said Over a fine line we tread Chasing someone's halo This ghost in my head I can't let go Into the dark I descend I descend Memories, broken dreams Hauntingly dark reveries Void like a hologram, hologram Chasing a fantasy We transpire to be Void like hologram We're shallow and empty like a hologram Like a hologram Darkness Walks hand in hand with the heartless Madness but a few steps away From common sense I stray Into false catharsis Believing I truly deserve this Inside the dark I remain I remain Memories, broken dreams Hauntingly dark reveries Void like a hologram, hologram Chasing a fantasy We transpire to be Void like hologram We're shallow and empty like a hologram Wherever I go I am set to crash into a wall For the truth we all sell There's a price I must pay How many times must I feel I've failed once again Because I fear I cannot see the real me Memories, broken dreams Hauntingly dark reveries Void like a hologram Chasing a fantasy We transpire to be Void like hologram Memories, broken dreams Hauntingly dark reveries Void like a hologram, hologram Chasing a fantasy We transpire to be Like hologram We're shallow and empty like a hologram

I see your grief You trust what I choose Truth lies in belief Deception in truth Where everyone goes truth goes to die We're breaking our balance to rise As kings of a world run dry We're threading the needle with lies Rising, but rising to fall Mindless, sightless, thoughtless We navigate through the darkest of tides With no compass we bypass our heart Drifting away as we start Falling We're breaking our balance to rise As kings of a world run dry We're threading the needle with lies A new world voice Designed to transgress You must make your choice Be with or against The passage of time erased from our mind Our memories sentenced to die As slaves of a world run dry We're shaping our future with lies Rising, but rising to fall Mindless, sightless, thoughtless We navigate through the darkest of tides With no compass we bypass our heart Drifting away as we start Falling We're breaking our balance to rise As kings of a world run dry We're threading the needle with lies Mindless, sightless, thoughtless We navigate through the darkest of tides With no compass we bypass our heart Drifting away as we start Falling We're breaking our balance to rise As kings of a world run dry We're threading the needle with lies Mindless, sightless, thoughtless We navigate through the darkest of tides With no compass we bypass our heart Drifting away as we start Falling We're breaking our balance to rise As kings of a world run dry We're threading the needle with lies Mindless, sightless, thoughtless We navigate through the darkest of tides With no compass we bypass our heart Drifting away as we start Falling We're breaking our balance to rise As kings of a world run dry We're threading the needle with lies

I see a thunder bolt cut through the sky I hear the decibels race with a cry As the adrenaline race to my heart I brace for collision while worlds fall apart I'll never give in Earth, wind and fire may stand in my way Hell or high water I'll still be the same Whatever comes and whatever will be The choice is mine and I choose to be me Powers to be cannot break my resolve No force of nature will shake me to fall I will bear witness to this vile attempt One man alone against the elements I'll never give in I shall never give in Earth, wind and fire may stand in my way Hell or high water I'll still be the same Whatever comes and whatever will be The choice is mine and I choose to be me I won't let it go I'll never give in Earth, wind and fire may stand in my way Hell or high water I'll still be the same Whatever comes and whatever will be The choice is mine and I choose to be me Earth, wind and fire may stand in my way Hell or high water I'll still be the same Whatever comes and whatever will be The choice is mine and I choose to be me

Have you seen angels on your screen A perfect snapshot of harmony Do you believe in fantasies Then step inside this narcissistic dream I see liars, bent desires in a viral charade Let your life be run by egos untamed I see modern ages fall in stages as we climb to the sun The decline of our race has begun Hail liberty we are free We dance with madness and we reign supreme All hail liberty We dance with madness and we reign supreme Come exercise your liberty With unqualified use of free will Lose the grip on factuality And become the apex of society The dejection is our connection, our viral disease Show the world how perfect life can be While you fall asunder as you suffer on the way to the sun The decline of our race has begun Hail liberty we are free We dance with madness and we reign supreme All hail liberty We dance with madness and we reign supreme Hail liberty we are free We dance with madness and we reign supreme All hail liberty We dance with madness and we reign supreme Hail liberty we are free We dance with madness and we reign supreme All hail liberty We dance with madness and we reign supreme

Sunrise, my setting sun I arise as the end's begun I wake as the dream begins to fade I await my reckoning I'll be judged to pay the cost For this life I lost I fell from the light Into a sea of damnation Now I walk through the waters Tracing my steps to redemption I rise on my way to paradise I will give this one more try As I walk through the valley of death Before I take my last breath One last time I will rise to my end I fell hard from grace Now I rise to end my days This life I led I wasted away Now I'll give one more try before I lay to rest I will choose my own fate I will stand 'til my last breath One last time, my final ride through the valley of death I rise on my way to paradise I will give this one more try I'll be judged to pay the cost For this life I lost One last time I will rise to my end

I see darkness within your eyes I see beauty meant to disguise And I stare as if I'm mesmerized Look away from the beautiful As the wind carries me ashore What lies beneath the surface shows To a false ringing melody We escape from reality As our dreams turn into memories In the light of the world you awake As a saint in whatever shape you take A change of reflection into perfection Have my eyes ever truly seen light Have I fallen for dark delights Seems I've slept through an eternal night I will never return the same As the dream starts to fade away I surface to the light again This magical chemistry Your angelical devilry Realised my darkest fantasies In the light of the world you awake As a saint in whatever shape you take A change of reflection into perfection Behind the mask no one will see Your dark reality A flawed imperfection, your true reflection In the light of the world you awake As a saint in whatever shape you take A change of reflection into perfection Behind the mask no one will see Your dark reality A flawed imperfection, your true reflection A change of reflection into perfection Behind the mask at last I see Your dark, your dark reality A flawed imperfection, your true reflection

I have two faces, I have two names I have two sides that cannot be tamed I am an angel, I am a travesty I am a case of duality A son of anarchy, a man of dignity Just who I am I can never see As I'm conflicted by my unbalanced pride My shoulder devil tilts me to his side You are my ally, you're my worst enemy My confidante and my catastrophe You are my weakness, you are the strength in me My shoulder devil and my humanity I live inside you, I breathe your air I'll play your game but I do not play fair I'll be your answer, I find all that you seek I'll be your tongue when you cannot speak Your silence overrun I'm conning everyone A pacifist with a loaded gun Until the very end I'll be your last defense Your shoulder devil, your one and only friend You are my ally, you're my worst enemy My confidante and my catastrophe You are my weakness, you are the strength in me My shoulder devil and my humanity You are my ally, you're my worst enemy My confidante and my catastrophe You are my weakness, you are the strength in me My shoulder devil and my humanity You are my ally, you're my worst enemy My confidante and my catastrophe You are my weakness, you are the strength in me My shoulder devil and my humanity
