Don't speak, before you start to run. Don't die believing! Silence! Hide it deep inside, to be the question. Turn to understanding, of the difference in between. To see what lies beneath me, and try to set the scene. Be yourself, save yourself! My life is fading, all is lost. Turning to see you, my desire. Lay down, you won't be seen or heard. Don't think you're something. Revenge, Prepare to take your stand. Break free the silence. Turn to understanding, and the nothing turns to you. You scream your name but you're voiceless, and the something speaks to you. Be yourself, save yourself! My life is fading, all is lost. Turning to see you, my desire. Your voice inside me, that scream still haunts me. And I will bleed your name, I'll reach the point in time. That dream still haunts me, the empty despair. And I will bleed your name, I'll reach the point in time. I'll bleed your name, I'll reach the point in time. My life is fading, all is lost. Turning to see you, my desire. In disguise, it's incomplete now. Inner lies, my new desire.

Through the dreaming lights, into darkness of nightmares. To the endless hollow, I shall go. From happiness to sorrow, from something to nothing, from the beginning to the end. You see my truth, and see my name. I will believe in you, and you will succumb to me. See my truth and see my name. And I will know you, and I will drain you dry. All is fading, all is lost. The endless never, the blood night. The darker shadows, and the darkest night. The endless never, the blood light. As my life fades out, as Death kicks in. Will I regret my life of sin? From punisher to punished, from master to slave, to my endless grave. You see my truth, and see my name. I will believe in you, and you will succumb to me. See my truth and see my name. And I will know you, and I will drain... All is fading, all is lost. The endless never, the blood night. The darker shadows, and the darkest night. The endless never, the blood light. Take me away, far from this day. And let me stay, and believe in my shadow. All is fading, all is lost. The endless never, the blood night. The darker shadows, and the darkest night. The endless never, the blood light. Fading black, the endless never. Fading black, the endless never.

Listen, and I'll try make you see. Listen, I'm tired now. It's timeless, and it's growing every day. Frameless in every way. Free again! Bleed my truth in timeless sand, I'll believe and understand. Your world, be your world. Bleed again! I am nothing in your eyes, to regain myself and feel. Your world! Embracing the nothingness! In my cold dark emptiness, I will save you, or repay in recklessness, in the nothingness. To my deep and dark demand, I'll betray you, and destroy your hopefulness. Innerlines leading me astray. inner lies taking me away. It's pointless, shrinking day by day. Eventless in every way. Free again! Bleed my truth in timeless sand, I'll believe and understand. Your world, be your world. Bleed again! I am nothing in your eyes, to regain myself and feel. Your world, save your world! Embracing the nothingness! In my cold dark emptiness, I will save you, or repay in recklessness, in the nothingness. To my deep and dark demand, I'll betray you, and destroy your hopefulness. Free again! Bleed my truth in timeless sand, I'll believe and understand. Your world, be your world. Bleed again! I am nothing in your eyes, to regain myself and feel. Your world, save your world!

I am falling, to see what's left behind. I am fallen, to you I must be blind. Is this the blinded calling? Is this the mindless falling? It's me, it's me! Open your mind, and please forgive me when I die. I am the Architect of Lies, into the nothing I will fly. This black and endless nothing, the white and pointless something in me. To be nothing, to have an empty mind, to be lost, and to see the truth benign. Is this the path, I'm choosing? My friend I think, I'm losing to you. Open your mind, and please forgive me when I die. I am the Architect of Lies, into the nothing I will fly. This black and endless nothing, the white and pointless something in me. Enter my selection, I will show you desolation. You will fall! Enter my selection, I will show you desolation. You will fall! I am mind! I am mind! I am the Architect of Lies, into the nothing I will fly. This black and endless nothing, the white and pointless something in me.

So hear me now, this weakened voicing. Listen one last time, it is dying. Here at the end I am, watching closely. Afraid to see you, afraid to be... So here it is again, this loneliness of mine. I can't seem to find you, I don't believe you're there. Is this your hand? Is this the turning? I need to say I lost you, I need to say goodbye. And save me from, this blinding night of nothing. Save me from the dying, save me from my God. Choose to find salvation, in the sorrow. I hope to see you laughing, laughing at the end. So here it is again, this loneliness of mine. I can't seem to find you, I don't believe you're there. Is this your hand? Is this the turning? I need to say I lost you, I need to say goodbye. I'm standing here in line, hoping to see. My dreams are intertwined, I'm here by your side. So here it is with me, this old friend of mine. I'm trying to break free, I'm here by your side. So here it is again, this loneliness of mine. I can't seem to find you, I don't believe you're there. Is this your hand? Is this the turning? I need to say I lost you, I need to say goodbye.

I Am the essence of ignorance, the destroyer of innocence. Stand by, watch you take the fall. I will cut into you my peer, and reveal your darkest fear. As a river of blood you will flow. Look into eyes, I am the one. I will defy! Looking into, an endless mirror. Seeing nothing, the end becomes clearer. Feel me now, as I steal some how. Your soul and your dignity, your system will fail. The fall and I, make you surrender. As I surrender! Feel me now, as I steal some how. Your soul and your dignity, your system will fail. The fall and I, make you surrender. As I surrender! Now the silence begins, my friend. It's the cold, dark and bitter end. Stand by and watch it fade, watch it fall. Now your fear is reality, all your dreams you will never see. Endless darkness surrounds you now. Is it cold now, my friend? Can you feel it? This is the end! Looking into, the endless never. Seeing into, the darkness forever. Feel me now, as I steal some how. Your soul and your dignity, your system will fail. The fall and I, make you surrender. As I surrender! Feel me now, as I steal some how. Your soul and your dignity, your system will fail. The fall and I, make you surrender. As I surrender! Your soul is mine! Feel me now, as I steal some how. Your soul and your dignity, your system will fail. The fall and I, make you surrender. As I surrender! Feel me now, as I steal some how. Your soul and your dignity, your system will fail. The fall and I, make you surrender. As I surrender!

I saw you laughing, saw your tears decay. I heard you speak to me, washed my smile away. We're failing, it's failing. These twisted thoughts, inside of me. They are failing! I can feel this tragedy. Pure and simple tragedy. Grey! So break my twisted world, it's the only way. And take these chains of gold, and let me die this way. Please believe me, I lost my soul today. My friend it's ending now, there's nothing left to say. I can feel this tragedy. Pure and simple tragedy. We're failing, it's failing. These twisted thoughts, inside of me. They are failing! I saw you laughing, saw your tears decay. I heard you speak to me, washed my smile away. I can feel this tragedy. Pure and simple tragedy.
Turning the nights, into your darkness. Dreams of the never, screaming for more. Searching for answers, searching for meaning. Searching for life, as your life fades away. Turning your answers, into your lies. Twisting the truth, the truth you deny! Grasping to this hope I have. In between, my dreams I dream. Free in this maze! Calling you in disgrace. Falling! Falling through lies, falling through pain. Into the night, you're falling through rain. Into the never, darkness forever. Feeling the cold, the shameful shiver. Feeling the shame, you are becoming heartless. My friend you lost, execution style! Grasping to this hope I have. In between, my dreams I dream. Free in this maze! Calling you in disgrace. We will fight to believe, in ourselves 'til we die trying. The Architect speaks: I've never felt sorry for anything that I've done, other than hurting my family. The only thing I feel sorry for! I'm not looking for forgivenss, and I'm not repenting. No, I'm wrong, I'm wrong! I do want my family to forgive me. This would never be me, this! You see the Architect cry, not very macho but... I've hurt people, that mean everything to me. The only people, that mean anything to me. And so you fail! Being so frustrated, you will fail. Try to set your mind free, you will fail. Turning empty pages, life is stale. Time will only show. You've taken, all my dreams away. Destroy yourself, and let it fall astray. Free in this maze! Calling you in disgrace. We will fight to believe, in ourselves 'til we die trying.

This is where it ends, and this is where it all begins. So step right along my friend, I will let you know my name. Disappear in crystal shades of grey, believe in nothing. Losing all you have in life, will teach you nothing. You stand alone, my friend. And I will hear you calling out but I... I am, I am! You will be blinded by fame. Enter my selection, show me desolation. And I will hear your shame, and so you die. And so it all begins, my death connection. You lose your perception, embrace the non divine. Reappear and speak your final peace, relieve yourself. Believe in all you see before you, believe in me. You stand alone, my friend. And I will hear you calling out but I... I am, I am! You will be blinded by fame. Enter my selection, show me desolation. And I will hear your shame. Lie for lie, I realize. Eye for an eye, and the world turns blind. You ar paralyzed, nothing to gain. By hiding behind your shame. Creating structures, and lies that ruptures. I am the Architect of Lies. Lies! The Architect of Lies! You stand alone, my friend. And I will hear you calling out but I... I am, I am! You will be blinded by fame. Enter my selection, show me desolation. And I will hear your shame.

So now I turn my face, and see you cry. And thus I crawl, crawl in line. I raise my hand, and try to speak. But I feel so numb. I lost my soul today and I'm... Lost to all salvation, failure is my name. My voice is all but silent now, and I turn away from hoping. My head is all but empty now, and I hold on to your lie. I raise my head, and see you once again. You're losing faith, losing faith. I picture all you told me, it's frozen in my mind. Slow decline, slow decline. So you scream, and I see you. Failure I will believe. My life is all but lost. Failure, I will listen, to a mind that's broken, to reach the path unspoken, to see what I have chosen.
