Break the silence, the clouds lift in the dawn inside my mind. Is the darkness casting a reflection? Staring at a broken mirror wanting, can't ever realize. You say that you believe but do you know the reason why? Centuries of pain under a paper sword, arrows in words from the sky. Breaking dawn, I am reborn, right the wrong, the ark of justice. Holding on by a thread I'll carry on and rise above this. Pain, how you gently strip my confidence away How your sweet caress is black and blue and gray. Archers at the ready, bows drawn, aiming high, arrows in words from the sky. Buried songs, anthems to a frozen sun, her cold will strengthen. Fighting on, this war, no more, lift up your brother. Night is long, my heart so dark keep pushing through this. Pain, how you gently strip my confidence away How your sweet caress is black and blue and gray. Archers at the ready, bows drawn, aiming high, arrows in words from the sky. The sky is darkest just before the dawn so keep the faith and wipe away your tears and wipe the spit off of your face. A spirit's buried inside, you were meant to shine a light. Glow incandescent, let them fear the fire burning bright. Shine bright, burn your fire and burn away the pain. Pain, how you gently strip my confidence away How your sweet caress is black and blue and gray. Archers at the ready, bows drawn, aiming high, Arrows! Pain, how you gently strip my confidence away How your sweet caress is black and blue and gray. Archers at the ready, bows drawn, aiming high, arrows in words from the sky.

Sweet caress grazes my skin It's loveless, these hooks sink in Behind an angel's disguise an insect preys Mandibles cut like a knife, the reckoning Forming clouds Their shadow shrouds Louder the tattered wings they sound Descending down They come, the swarm of locusts Skies above converge to choke us Feast of souls, consume the harvest Young and old suffer unto the locust Surrender, these veins are bled Devour, nothing sacred Strings pull the marionettes, see how they dance Upon the winds that beget our pestilence Forming clouds Their shadow shrouds Louder the tattered wings they sound Descending down Down they come, the swarm of locusts Skies above converge to choke us Feast of souls, consume the harvest Young and old suffer unto the locust Bleeding from my eyes This plague is sent to erase us Bleeding from inside These vermin can't infiltrate us Faith appears and holds a candle Hark the angels sing Forming clouds Their shadow shrouds Louder the tattered wings they sound Tear the veil The lies derail Purity ever will prevail Trumpets sound The shattered crown Halos of truth now they surround The charade comes down Down they come, the swarm of locusts Skies above converge to choke us Feast of souls, consume the harvest Young and old suffer unto the locust Down they come, the swarm of locusts Skies above converge to choke us Feast of souls, consume the harvest Young and old suffer unto the locust

In this struggle Are we dead or alive? Freedom is not existence It's how we survive Shake our grief Hold on to belief It can't enslave us forever There is relief No change will be permanent Our strength enduring bright incandescent Take a chance before we fall Pressed against the wall And the sun will rise Dawn will break through blackest night Distant in its glow This shall pass, be still and know Where there's heartache As we search to connect Even just for a moment Pretend we're content There is love Know that we are one We are all in this Together weather the storm Look into each other's eyes Make the connection before it dies It will all disseminate As we consummate And the sun will rise Dawn will break through blackest night Distant in its glow This shall pass be still and know Is it hopeless? Will the fear take control? Don't succumb to the numbing Sting of defeat Take this hate Let the bile stagnate Hoist the head of Goliath Bask in its grace Stars realign in the sky Glaciers will melt and the oceans rise Waves will come crashing ashore But withstand the roar And the sun will rise Dawn will break through blackest night Distant in its glow This shall pass be still and know

Sangre sani, sangre sani Sangre sani, sangre sani Sangre sani, sangre sani Sangre sani, sangre sani Sangre sani, sangre sani Sangre sani, sangre sani Sangre sani, sangre sani Sangre sani, sangre sani I am death Arms held outstretched I am hell Born this mortal shell I am wrath Take this bloodbath God sent me to kill you What started out as wonder The smell of scorched earth It filled me with a sense of bliss Inside my head the noises how they thundered With cracking and hiss One match Killed the anguish One act Left me fulfilled Destruction now the only catalyst To save this soul From these thoughtless kills Where once a heart was beating Nothing but embers glow Our love it serves as kindling To stoke this flames inferno I am hell to thee Down here all shall suffer with me Die purified Rise the ashes to the sky Obsession born of young lust Incomprehensible the feelings as they come to pass But now betrayal slowly turns to bloodlust Through sulphur and gas Ignite this crime of passion Love's pyre is set a blaze The charred remains of all Compassion Was the spark that lit Your immolation Where once a heart was beating Nothing but embers glow Our love it serves as kindling To stoke this flames inferno I am hell to thee Down here all shall suffer with me Die purified Rise the ashes to the sky So burn I'll burn it down I'll burn you down So you'll never love again Not again Where once a heart was beating Nothing but embers glow Our love it serves as kindling To stoke this flames inferno I am hell to thee Down here all shall suffer with me Die purified Rise the ashes of your immolation I Am Hell In the ashes of your immolation I Am Hell In the ashes of your immolation
