There is no afterlife Only this There is no afterlife Only this I have gazed upon these skies for a lifetime or more The fiercest stars, collapsed on heaven's floor Airless and silent, the pathway from hell, destination endlessly far Still, attempt to traverse through the black and frozen time Behold the portal to the light A tale of hope for those to die With sings so cold and muscles tense, I could not make the journey's end With no blood left in my veins to bleed, and no tears left to shed Never had I felt so alone Taste this bitter darkness This universe of emptiness that lies within us That we lie within, and reside in awe and wonder Stretching through matter and time unending A beautiful mystery eternally unsolved Become the dreamless, reach the void and see Into the emptiness that birthed and denied me Forsaken, we shall accept this as our truth Dreaming in the language, but longing for our youth Evasive is the ecstasy of sleep I reach for that horizon, forever just out of reach To cross the threshold into darkness There is no afterlife Only this There is no afterlife Only this There is no afterlife Only this There is no afterlife Only this

The abyss looked so cold tonight as you stared into the depths more inviting than the light And the mists curled like torn paper in the air Celebrate the end of all pain and despair Serenity, (be my guardian) You're all I've left to hold Agony, (give me purpose) Your scarlet warms me in the cold Ash, rain down (on me) Let me hide in your grey Storm, show your anger Let me sink beneath these waves Down into depths we dive Searching for the numbness you traded for your life Could you drown, become your demise? Crush the air out of your lungs, but you will never die I swore to give you all you'd need I swore to fulfill every dream Don't you fall into a sleep where I can't reach you

Cold and dark Drift in empty space Among the leaves and sand Brush the current I am blind Dive into this reflection (Welcome home) Now I beg for dreamless sleep I pray here that my soul will keep Crushing silence fills up lungs Ice preserve the skin and bone Now I beg for dreamless sleep I pray here that my soul will keep An endless dream with time untold I pray these waves a life will hold Breathe, I can't inhale this fire Lungs will rot and eyes grow darker Beat, a heart that fails in water I can see the surface and the sun Now I beg for dreamless sleep I pray here that my soul will keep An endless dream with time untold I pray these waves a life will hold

The ocean took me in its arms and cradled Held my heart so gently, calmed my soul, it seems That I may never make my last return Well, perhaps the night is where I'm meant to be So cold and yet so warm Numb and far away from harm Distant lights a dancing glow so far from me Could you forgive me, all I've said and done you wrong Though I'm blind, beneath the surface I can see A glow, though I cannot be sure it's you Another time I would have strayed and let you Burn my wings and let me fall I'd worship you and give you all of me I would have followed you wherever you'd lead [Chorus] I will pledge my final breath to your name Here at the end of my days Pray you won't deny my chance to repay Another time, another life Another night the ocean was an emerald sea That glitters in my mind from time to time It's an old wound that remains a distant memory Though not a day goes by that I don't think of What has come to pass and how A flame should never burn this long And mine was gone the moment that I kissed those waves [Chorus] I will pledge my final breath to your name Here at the end of my days Pray you won't deny my chance to repay Another time, another life [Guitar solo] [Chorus] (x2) I will pledge my final breath to your name Here at the end of my days Pray you won't deny my chance to repay Another time, another life Another time, another life

O Dormant, Hungry Fire of Morn Heed your master's call Consume the worthless, wretched lives That plague your sacred hall To fill the lungs and pierce the flesh With rock and with sea and with smoke Choke this land from existence Hear the words your master spoke: I, who guides the lonely souls to shore And takes the lost to keep them warm Chained here to ease our pain Succumb to peace for a hundred days I have found what I set out to find A love to cut my binds, so End this curse upon my soul Let us bathe in flame, so we may Burn (A single spark to burn the night away) Burn (A beacon of dawn to turn the night to day) Burn (A single spark burning the night away) Burn (A beacon of dawn turning the night to sky) Such is my will, thus the ultimate law Eternity no longer bound Rejoice, and mourn this sovereignty's fall May our elegy forever resound Now torment the seas and bring down the skies Suffered creations, unmade Bask in the ruin, consuming and bright I welcome this terrible fate I, who guides the lonely souls to shore And takes the lost to keep them warm Chained here to ease our pain Succumb to peace for a hundred days I have found what I set out to find A love to cut my binds, so End this curse upon my soul Let us bathe in flame, so we may Burn (A single spark to burn the night away) Burn (A beacon of dawn to turn the night to day) Burn Take a step my dear, don't close your eyes We'll have one last dance before we say goodbye Fare thee well, I bid you goodnight All I have to offer is a memory A song upon your tongue for you to hold Deep in the ashes, would you bury me And bear the wicked fire to walk alone? Take my light in your hands and do not look back Take my breath and build yourself anew Renew my sentence, take my tears Another thousand silent years Just to see your smile light your face once more Go now and live as you've never lived before

Out of the darkness, a light shines bright alone This broken dawn set me alight No looking back now, I'll do this on my own But would you let me go tonight From the ashes we will rise A burning pyre that brought us back to life That tiny spark was worth the fight No looking back now, I'll leave it all behind I will remember you and rise We'll rise One last breath Never again One final goodbye And from the ashes we will rise
