Within the Veil

Powerlines... steel webs confine, violating the brownish sky. Hard grey smothers, earth, like cancer. Cracks revealing, ground below broken and bleeding every seed every stone. I've heard the promise, I feel hunger, I realize. As time creeps over me and days are torn away. There are no answers only bitter lies, the only voice I'm believing is the beckoning blade. I know the feeling the loss of control Voice of reason slips away Eyes staring back at me So dark, so cold Reflecting all that remains I know the enslaver. I taste its poison... felt its sting deep inside. It has mo answer, only the bitter lies but its voice I'm hearing, keep calling my name. Who can tell the torture of the soul? Is it wrong... tell me is it wrong... to close your eyes... to sleep forever?

When the night comes Run Away When the night fall calls out your name. The lust you feel Has cause pain Silent in the morning light Go home to your betrayed. When the night comes Run and hide When the night falls Get inside It belongs to the betrayed Who can't decide To live or die. Something's on their minds... It doesn't matter They're just killing time. I like the way the knife feels in your back. Words fall Between us Lying in the dust, no trust Their shadows cover us. Recite this vow together Swear on Our souls forever In nothing, in no one. Can we trust Without mercy Without pity We silent stalk The streets of the city looking for you I am betrayed. You will feel my rage You fucking goddamn king of the world.

Nocturnal shades of blue dance before her eyes, and call to me pleading please don't lie. In her darkest hour Emily knows the fate of whores.... who lie down... and swear the sacred words. Love was just something I did to survive Love was just something I did to get by. Like a circus clown with her painted frown. Sun going down and the long night begins. Harvest Where will you run to now? You've betrayed all who cared. Harvest. Chorus. It never changes, it goes round, and round round. you've got the need I got you suck me or you rot.....

She calls out to you From behind sin's doorway Her 13 years have left her so calloused so diseased... Oh still she's begging you Like you wish your daughter would... Half a word away Betrayal fills her eyes It's the sick of the unkind years... And scars start to form A tangled web of shame Across her bleeding, tortured flesh... And you want more to take her down with you, beneath the crimson tide. Slip... silently... under... the... water (remember no pain) Lost in the rapture You're running fast from the past But it's freeze framed... you can't see what's beyond. Her voice keeps echoing... your name... you keep remembering The world so cold to you You get what you gave The world so cold it's true When the red... turns... to... grey Chorus: When she's on her knees... sche's saying a prayer for me And through the frenzied feed... she's saying a prayer for me And through the waiting tide offered sanctuary... I know she's saying a prayer for me She just needed... someone to love her... She just needed a kind word... Crawling, calling across your memories. Torture you.

Cold wars... genocide... Slavery of man Third world poverty... Multimillionaires Mass starvation, but don't be alarmed That part of population doesn't matter much anyway. Blood drunk like water, now no more rain No more victims for the altar, in the temple of decay. Watch the frightened refugee seeking sanctuary. His government want him dead... He has no choice. Old woman in the gutter, barely alive The crown turns.. looks away The never ask why. Why are we DESEASED?

Words can't say The way I feel Words can't save me Faith has been broken I'm no longer blind Faith has been broken Time after time Harsh words are spoken by those who deny Harsh words are spoken Lies always lies He whispered "Be kind to me Come kill me one more time I'm lost in bitter rage". Why, tell me why Chorus Holding on to the pain Holding on, watch life fade Holding on the past Holding on, to wasted time I can't see through delusion Oh I'm trying Isn't life strange When you're living a lie. Chorus

Whispers in the darkness Cold lies burn like fire Page turn slowly Fading the flame of desire Unholy flame of desire You come crawling down upon your knees Liar You come crawling begging baby please Love's death is a slow death Is a Quick death But once it's over Fate's hand is a cold hand Is a sly hand is the hand on your shoulder But now you're older You come crawling down upon your knees Liar You come crawling 'cause I got what you need Liar you come crawling begging me baby please

Do you ever think about tomorrow? Do you ever think about yesterday? Do you ever feel sorrow? Over what you've left drift away? Lie alone rotting... calling out for compassion... far a final act... they'll gladly pay... You know you're just another... broken brother... scared sister... No one will ever miss you anyway. Do you ever think about the otherside? And who's waiting for you there? I'll be waiting for you dear. When the suck you in. Waiting for the door to be kicked in Waiting for the head to hit the ground Waiting for my heart to stop beating Yesterday is dead and gone Tomorrow is out of sight It's so sad to be alone Help me make it through the night You're lost in the drift That's what you want isn't it? You're lost in the drift That's fucking tough isn't it? You're lost in the drift You get what you gave yes
