Songs for the Apocalypse, Volume IV

I bid my last wits a sad goodbye sundown's closing in there are secrets the dreamland keep more than meets the eye. Eyes deceiving, false conceiving thoughts misleading fear's exceeding. It's the things you see and the things you don't it's the things you hear and the things you won't. Dancing shadows upon my wall nightmares are closing in they have won if I fall asleep then I'm surely lost. The walls are bleeding painful breathing the night's impending, a fright unending.

Come rain, come shine, no lie of mine. Eternal dark is my shrine the sun might shine outside but in my heart death hides I'll take your hand, end your stride I'll lead you through to the other side. Into a world so old into a world so cold under a blackened sky this is a world foretold I belong here under my blackened sky there is no sun in sight under my blackened sky you belong here. Come shine, come rain, true words of mine. Let's go my friend, please follow when you're out of this world you're way beyond sorrow your time in life has past and gone the race you fed it is all but won.

Silent storm clouds slow they came, in god's name bold and blinded we're the same, still no shame. Is this our fall from grace is this our final trace is this the end of time in this eleventh chime. The crown of nature pagan fools, pagan rules a lost creation seals the womb, seals the tomb. Are we the last in line to read the clearest sign?

The fallen and graceless, the twisted and odd like outcasts from heaven, abandoned by god they're wakeless in daylight, evoked by the night when sneaking in shadows, they're well out of sight. Wayward angels burned by light, blessed by night nocturnal seed, unholy breed. Creeping and crawling, the shapeless and vague what's unseen by mankind still feared like the plague their spirits are strong and your flesh is so weak who dares to get close when their find is there keep. Keep all of your lights lit when huddled in fear the ancient and timeless, abstracted still near if silence at twilight might lead you astray when fooled by its stiffness you won't get away.

Cannot forgive myself Help me oh God Pierced my soul with sin Of freedom slave I will surely fall If I keep this way flesh will fade away Show me meaning Im breaking away As I though I was lost I gaze a sight of Faith A mourning Friday march Past Priest's skull on silk Awakens me to our fate Words written on with ink "What I Am You Will Be"

My father was undergoing surgery his heart had failed him so terribly the operation was very dangerous I felt so helpless I thought of God. I prayed my father would not die I prayed that he would be just fine I prayed to god to see him through I prayed and I believed in you. When I was struck by harsh reality it opened up my eyes so I could see while I was sitting there in the waiting room there was only one thing I could do. Please God forgive my sins, please let my father live please God hear my prayers. I prayed and he did not die I prayed and now he is just fine I prayed and God saw him through I prayed and I believe in you.

From my black tongue words of scorn out of darkness my ways were born. I can still fear their presence the thoughts within my mind frail dreams of wayward essence a deal that's you unsigned so mean, unclean and godless the roots I'm scared to find their needs are often heartless like truth that's long declined. Strange and vain are the feelings as my mind can flow free these unpleasant revealing can they really be me? My thoughts will pull me under life spinning round and round where will it stop I wonder? No trace of solid ground like seconds into hours my days are passing by I'll climb an endless tower as life's an endless lie.
