Lyrics
The time approaches
Fall
Chanting inspiration for the righteous
Dislocation from the social order
Kingdoms will rise to power
But kingdoms fall to dust
The ashes of the dead will be a sign the time approaches
Arms raised
Eyes gaze
Tongues of fire whisper
This life will soon slip away
Babylon you will fall
Your days are numbered
Who will hear your cries as you fall
|
| Self Revolution | |
|
I cant comprehend society's movement, The regression of human existence,
This is the quest of life fulfill your destiny, Slow down this fast paced world,
And you will see the illusion, breaking the foundation,collapse the control,
building a revolution to heal nations,It starts within you, in this search for i & i
the truth is always deep inside,(reversal of oneself finding the truth)
This is the quest of life, we must find the strength,
for a new movementslow down this fast paced worldand you will see h=the revolution,for a new movement.

| Fixation on the Darkness | |
|
Fixation on the darkness that engulfs this world
drain the life force of our people, change
Fixation on the darkness that engulfs this world
drain the life force of our people
Return to the womb, new life
lay your head to rest, mercy
to give you a peace of mind,
lay your head to rest
Come together inside, this body is only a shell
change, the only way we will survive
light transfiguration of the soul, of the soul, of the mind
Fixation on the darkness that engulfs this world
drain the life force of our people
Return to the womb, new life
lay your head to rest, mercy
to give you a peace of mind,
lay your head to rest
Tell them they will not hold us down, it's time for a change

| My Last Serenade | |
|
CD: Alive Or Just Breathing?
YESSS!!!!! Thank God I found these Lyrics! I've been looking for them
for a whole hour now!!!
THIS REVELATION-is the death of ignorance
Tangled in a state of SUFFOCATION!!!
Slave to self-righteousness
Damnation is on your lips!
Pre Chorus:
From sorrow to serenity!!!
The truth is absolution
From sorrow to serenity!!!
It's on your head
Chorus:
This is my last serenade
I feel you as you fall away
This is my last serenade
From yourself you cant run away
It's your choice!!!
Point the finger!!!
But it's on your head!
YOUR DESTINATION-is a choice within yourself
Will you rise or become a SLAVE-to self-righteousness
Open up your heart and gaze within
Pre Chorus
Chorus

| Life to Lifeless | |
|
Humanity cover me with the ashes of remembrance
I will learn from this pain
there is no darkness without light to teach us of ourselves
Life to lifeless to eternity, life to lifeless the cycle repeats
Death unfolds itself painfully to unmask how fragile we are
Death unfolds itself painfully, teacher of sanity
The pain drags me down, i'll rebuild me
|
| Just Barely Breathing | |
|
Decend into hysteria
chaos of mankind but who is listening to the voice of hatred
tortured souls lost so completely lost
weakened in the concept of decline, deception
are we alive or just breathing
don't close your eyes, see the images
the skies weep tonight, our bodies washed away
I am waiting for you, deliverance
the sun falls through the clouds
hear my cry
|
| To the Sons of Man | |
|
You son of man I am here as a witness
you son of man can't you see what burns inside me
this fire will consume as the flames purify
with the peace that passes understanding
this is my outcry
>from dust to dust we will return
the flesh is temporary
the soul is eternal
son of man can't you see
son of man can't you save yourself
|
| Temple from the Within | |
|
Make me feel serenity when all is revealed
so easy to look back in life and question but I must seek
to find the strength to push forward (forward) forward
I want to see whats so beutiful inside
as we drink of life
erernal absolve me through your suffering
teach me to inscribe these words on my heart
cover me with the shadow of your hand
I will not loose myself I in everything that tears me down
because you stand by me and no one to blame for my transgressions
no one to blame but myself
|
| The Element of One | |
|
torn disbelieving separation
i close my eyes to see you
this is for you, everything i am
this is for you, take it from me
torn disbelieving separation
i close my eyes
but there is no escaping this
in your arms in your soul
i will be rejuvenation
breathe me in
i am forever
deep within i am eternal
i will return to you
i am with you always
i will never turn away from you
|
| Vide Infra | |
|
I have opened my eyes to see the world that surrounds me daily
i refuse to be led by the majority can't compromise i and i to pass judgement
judgement will be passed upon you i will stand up for who i am never moved
by condemnation no one is placed higher than another no matter race
or creed or gender we must teach forgiveness and compassion for all life
through understanding of our differences we will find respect for one
another we are all flesh and blood i am not afraid to speak my mind no matter
the consequences stay true to myself through the humble eyes of a child
we will realize true equality they cannot take me from me
they cannot take you from you they cannot take i from i

| Rise Inside | |
|
By: REx T.
Lyrics
Rise inside, Free your mind
Raise your fist to Signify
We stand in defiance of hate and deception
If I stand alone I will fight for you
The time has come to make a difference
Why have we forsaken love
The time has come to raise our voices
So rise up and fight with me
Embrace what we have, It might be the last time
In this life we will rise
If we find the strength to unify
Hatred is a weakness, you become the victem
I believe love will overcome
The time has come to make a difference
Why have we forsaken one another
