1.
What comes from here only brings misery Majesty I see, divided paths One moment can define Behold, these cities of deception will fall
2.
In this golden age Serenity engulfs my being The greatest revelation shall be known in all the land In your city I am lost for words In your golden heart I am truly reborn One moment can define euphoria never seen or heard Let’s keep the past at bay and revel in these days Yet this feeling of fulfilment is felt by many We are carved into statues aspiring life anew For what it brings Give me my sin again Everything feels so right tonight And sometimes even I do shine And we shall dance Like a breath in the eyes of eternity As your voice lingers on So the memories find a home I am complete in this superior state Ingrained with hope and a will to conquer Fate
3.
Please wait awhile as I cut away this mess From what we’ve become and will become I’ll walk this street for you We lead our lives into oblivion Now will you take my hand? And I am the one to see you And I am the bringer of storms And I am the scapegoat of us And I am the infinite bearer Worlds fall at the engraving of our name The embers are eternal and remain to defeat our cause So do we push on this engine? See our paths divide tonight Divided paths For it leaves us speechless We’ll never live through this tragedy Broken wings cannot fly And broken hearts cannot thrive Here’s to all that we fought for A toast to end it all

I can’t recall what it was that brought me here So many wasted days still waiting to ascend If this leads me to turn the page and close the book Darling, I give my life I can never return to this place In the end are we meant to cease the wound? Be strong, demoness, for this time I am not coming home These bridges will burn These cities of deception will fall I stay pure To all the words I’ve ever spoken I endure The scars you bestow so gently I rise At the fall of the kingdom And I This is what I’ll find As I enter a world in flames Oh dear How you kill this soul of mine? I attack Piercing the mist with a blunt sword Despair is my name All I have seen My unsung song Whispered through three years A call to arms Biting my tongue So I lift up my hands now In hope to reopen my eyes I summon forth redeemer Redeem my feeble mind This fragile awakening beckons I draw near Still I am escaping nowhere

Werewolves 05:10
My soul, risen Spits out fire With a will to take to the grave Hail This body burns waiting for the day to divorce the light What will I make of these bloodshot eyes? When will my Lycan heart lust no more? In a haze I muscled A death-like grip I, the host of horrors The burden of pain My days seem to know no end And this body is burning again Even in this state there is but time to think of the past, I know Born of fist and fury With a wide-eyed glare to make the bloodthirsty cringe This infinite struggle My infinite curse What comes from here only brings misery Ten kills a day keeps the guilt away and away These intentions I grasp so dearly And one day I will leave this body, torn Destroying my monster form, this disease Existing to breach and obliterate old boundaries Seize the day Seize the day Tonight the voices scream Of unending battles, now victory My soul, risen Risen to true great heights What comes from here is not what it used to be Forever enduring the suffering and still These intentions I grasp so dearly Is the beast now not within me? I’ll go beyond Paving a new path
6.
Majesty, I see through your golden throne Like a glazing glass wall to your rightful arm Behold Oh how we praise these minor gods tonight? Behold, I am Jerusalem For I’ll play on a stage to no one Never forgetting the scars of roads travelled In the midst of the great one In the fallen ages Tragedy is now Eating away at our souls Mutilate with no remorse For we bear such a catastrophe What will these days bring forth my dear? A land filled with blood-craving whores? We are forever; we are immortal Through our laws, this is final We’re immortal This is final All it takes to remember their reign Greed, murder, and misanthropy Mutilate
