A Welcome Change Give me a moment of peace To find what came before you died We prophesized you would find a way So as one we could survive Long past time to break your fall today Once so close to home, Now we're screaming through the blood and wind To send your soul away Depart in conscious mind we find We don't need a saviour to expose the truth of what we hide Even when wrong, we're right to shed the skin of our shadows on our own And leave a brighter sun than we once found You say we want the same thing, but how? All of your lies are vital to our pending demise Long past time to break your fall today Once so close to home, Now we're screaming through the blood and wind To send your soul away And allow a greater sense of wealth When the last shadow falls, say it's alright We don't need a saviour to expose the truth of where we have been When the last shadow falls say you will bring a welcome change Peel away the grey Peel away the grey I know it hurts This won't last forever Break if this tranquillity burns your tongue Dissonance rings through what they’ve built Ethereal ocean ingrained in one drop Our future portrait of endless desire It’s just a word and nothing more O' bravest of hearts Show your unrelenting will and do your part Survive yourself so we'll outrun this place so unforgiving Transcend & shine Higher Higher Long past time to break your fall today Once so close to home, Now we're screaming through the blood and wind To send your soul away

You and I, we've come so far Paid the price of building on earth a paradise Admire the cunning eyes that I have worn to drawn outside the line Through the misery and war A brazen vision to conquer everything but inner space I’ll admit that we were wrong! It's such a shame that I Wouldn't dare to be true to the ways I portray I've sold the best of myself out Are you hurting? Are you so deprived? We'll burn this catatonic age down It's such a shame that I Wouldn't dare to embrace my defeat No giving, no light, I repeat myself in time Are you hurting? Are you so deprived? Let’s burn this catatonic age down Are you taking every twist and turn? for I have been with you from the beginning of me I chased you through every corner of this hell To look you in the eyes Is this all you'll ever be? Recall the moment they tore the sun apart And killed the light that called you home Stand in the wake of coerced corruption Break the chain End it all Are you hurting? Are you so deprived? The struggle within is a way out How long I've waited to see you spread your wings? How long I've waited to hear you whisper your song? You’ve searched and crowned the past for far too long Sing in praise of love, End it all

Down in a hole, I gave myself in that prayer so long forgotten Safe from all that haunts me, moved like a pawn by the greatest of powers Face me now, the omniscient one Through the fog of inconsequence Before my last goodbye Called you across the years of pain, it’s time To cleanse and purge this house as the waters rise Awake in the arms of the abyss I come alive And shatter the illusions of all that I believe is mine Head down, I crashed upon my pride While their sweet surrender perished at my hand Redemption is lost, sceptics are slaves There’s no home to call their own Called you across the years of pain, it’s time To cleanse and purge this house as the waters rise Awake in a new point of view I reconcile And shatter the illusions of the light that I believe is mine We’re running out of time, running out of time Pushing towards destruction, for all the rules I’ve bent We live behind the walls that made us go insane Deliver my wings, deliver my mirror Exceed all hope of discovering what lies far beyond my reach Treasure the day I cauterise And allow the light spill through Crying out in a hundred silent ways, Searching for pieces that may be a home I'm oblivious to your lightening & thunder To your cruelty, feel my hurt Someday I'll find a way out of disorder Need one last chance to reconnect Dying to feel her hold of care One gesture, one glance from her Will take the weight I’ve come to bear

Stepping through the sheltered lines To find the new projections of you, I know you’ve been here before Reclaimed the time this cycle stole Braved the tides, disintegrated the stars How the truth disenchants your eyes Rise above all the noise my love You hold the fate of this world You are the last in line to shake And tear all the temples down Contemplate what we cannot escape When all is said and done Dilate my world The angles must disappear Squandering a thousand lives For we are united by fear Take this ancient fire In your naked hands Watch how the symbols fly To bury all the answers underground You are the last in line to shake And tear all the temples down Contemplate what we cannot escape When all is said and done, Praise my landing (on the other side) On the tail of the sunrise Fragments of hope spiral inside Revelations bring sacrifice Dilate my world The angles must disappear Take on my burden, show and tell the exit is near Dilate my world Until I tune into a place much higher Give up the semblance of obedience before the end is near Obsessions have bent and shaped my mind Now black is all I feel

I depend on this mutating light That keeps me ignorant and safe Bate to steal my armour & forge my chain I say too late, I’m worn & defeated By all this mediocrity While the crowns of thoughts Stage the battles that we wage I search the beyond within and without So you’ll find some peace tonight

So glad to see you disobey your eyes And silence the doors of pain and desolation You’ve buried beneath the stones and found at last An ocean worthy of adoration Hold on Rise through the mountains of division Past the frightening whirlpools of derision And trace the path for all human light Die to see the beacon of our insight Around the bend, let it echo through their hearts Our new beginning is here in love In the name of truth In the name of choice They're out there to forge my chain Running for the cure, hiding from the cause They’re mere reflections of what once had come and gone I will be moving on while you are fighting our father’s wars And face the evil that never stops He got my tongue, I got the spear Prospered on my illusion to break away To see through the tears that are meant to breed much pain

When will they open their eyes? Our place is placeless Between the sand & stardust A trace of the traceless Through every catastrophe and creation there’s A mention of our name Lies in resurrection of beauty and pain Our seamless vision of a world fallen to rise and ignite again I'm trapped and doomed inside this womb, I will not die here in shit and blood Crushing the walls, I choke on my bones The cord is cut, doubt comes alive Your heedless breath defames my name Rips the veil that hides your pain Howling all the while, “the choice is mine” One moment in annihilation’s waste One moment for the peace of mind to taste Searching hope, though it’s much too late There’s still a chance to unseal your fate
