Forces unknown have gathered,
The sands begin to flow through space.
The hourglass has turned.
We rise from the heart,
a new breed of savages
built to test the dimension of measure.
Ambition lights up the sky
a never ending sun to lighten the way.
A new breed, forging the path to broad horizon.
Endless motion, endless possibilities.
Learn to embrace eternity.
Break
Time has begun, take your place and open your eyes,
We are the new breed, the unyielding generation.
Time has begun, take your place and open your eyes,
We are the new breed, the unyielding generation.

Breathe this air.
Walk the plains of this earth
A dream, a place of fiction.
Is this existence, or a veil of lies.
Are we standing consumed?
Abused and soon to be forgotten.
Are we alive? feel your heart beating inside.
Is it real or subconscious life beyond nothingness.
Are we standing consumed?
Abused and forgotten.
Is this life
or an illusion
Do i speak
or stay silent
Will i find
the truth, in matter
Do i feel
or do i think
All i love
is it really mine
All i hate
is it worth my time
Am i dead
do i really exist
Do i breathe
just to feel alive!!!
Just to feel alive.
I need answers.
I need answers.
what will i find inside this abyss.
Too dark to see, too hard to make sense of it all.
With the hope of finding a reason
i will search, scour and listen
to the cries, the sounding beacon
find the answers before i'm beaten.
With the hope of finding a reason
i will search, scour and listen
to the cries, the sounding beacon
find the answers before i'm beaten.
With this ground below my feet
a touch of cold, a wave of heat
Is it real, is it reality
am i alive because i breath?
I am running out of time
Someone please show me the way
Someone please show me the answers.

I search for meaning, to find my path
I can search forever but i'll never find what i need.
Limitations to material existence, we are earthbound.
Will I ever see what is guiding me?
Will i ever find a reason worth living for?
This veil of emptiness consuming my vision.
I am bound. I am bound to this prison of a world.
Bound, to no end.
Bound, fixed to this empty vessel
that carries no meaning.
Why would i have been sent here,
only to live a meaningless life
searching for something that was not there.
Buried under these vast waters,
currents to keep me drowning.
I will not surface,
to breathe the breath of life and freedom.
I wont escape the hands keeping me bound
no celestial light to guide me
I search for meaning, to find my path
I can search forever but i'll never find what i need.
Limitations to material existence, we are earthbound.
a never ending struggle
to emerge from darkness.
to create a vision of my escape.
I will emerge, i will fight this fate.

The light shines
down from the heavens,
a light so bright,
stars like diamonds (diamonds).
There are no answers here,
do my answers lay with them?
Constellations, interconnected.
Taunting my arrival.
I take each step
I find no elevation
Lift me up (lift me up)
Oh mighty sky
What lies beyond the borders
A sea of opportunity
Or emptiness (or emptiness)
Feast your eyes on the stars that shine
open yourself to infinity
opportunities, endless possibilities
Feast your eyes on the stars that shine
open yourself to infinity
Beyond the limits, beyond the borders of your mind.
Embrace the scene
Take in the beauty
I will find my salvation
not on this earth but in the beyond
Bring me the sun
The light shines
Illumination
Feast your eyes on the stars that shine
open yourself to infinity
opportunities, endless possibilities
Feast your eyes on the stars that shine
open yourself to infinity
Beyond the limits, beyond the borders of your mind.

Elysium
04:13

Reality lingers in my mind
but i know in this place i am safe.
So many stories i have heard
So many things i thought were lies
But this kingdom, i truly feel alive
A skeptic’s blind eye, opened to realize
a saviour had plucked me from my misery.
To bring me here, this place of serenity.
As i arrived, i walked along a golden road.
step by step, closer to a glowing gate.
Welcomed with embrace by the ones that i’ve lost.
It was heaven that i’d been brought to.
The kingdom was glowing, floating
as if on a cloud in the sky.
everyone, everything was so perfect.
I want to stay forever in this place.
As i sink into the depths of this neverland
A place of freedom and divine serenity
A home, a place with the ones that i love
with no fear of having it ripped from me.
But this kingdom, i truly feel alive
A skeptic’s blind eye, opened to realize
a saviour had plucked me from my misery.
To bring me here, this place of serenity.
Then it goes dark, the voices and smiles disappear.
I strain myself to listen but I couldn’t hear.
I feel a clutch of hands pulling me away,
I cried out “please, please let me stay!"

Live within your dreams
and pray to your gods
that you never awake
from the heaven that you see.
Remain incarcerated within your image.
Cling to it for hope,
for that place of subconscious fiction
will be your only refuge.
Realize that your life is but a fraction
of something greater than infinity.
A footnote on the steps to higher power.
Remove any thought of salvation.
No one can save you from fate.
Your immovable path is set in stone
Do not protest your destiny
Not even the strongest willed will stand up,
they will cripple at the heels of time.
None can dethrone him, show no defiance.
He is everlasting.
His legacy; infinite.
He makes his mark on every fibre,
every fibre of structure.
the base to hold the highest statues.
He is everlasting.
He is the power over this world.
Time, the engineer of measure.
He decides when life begins
and when it subsides.
Do not protest your destiny
Not even the strongest willed will stand up,
No one can dethrone him, show no defiance.

Destruction
03:18

And now we've made it
this is the end.
war and blood
come to take us.
Through the fog,
i see no survivors,
just debris
of fallen fighters.
This is your doing,
your greed has taken this world
The sounds have faded,
I've never heard silence so loud.
The silence is deafening.
The sounds have faded,
I've never heard silence so loud.
The sounds have faded,
I've never heard silence so loud.
