Starrcade
03:47
|
|

The planets align, high in the sky
Celestial machines engage
On a distant planet with seven suns
There is no tomorrow for anyone
Waiting for the night that will never come
You cannot survive
The Starrcade lie
Starrcade fire
As the shadows encroach the horizon line
We are all just living on borrowed time
The eternal brilliance eclipse's the sky
We cannot survive
Starrcade's lie
A ball of fire that burns forever , scarring hallowed ground
Left a wake of mournful embers, tragedy abound
Harrowing in deaths adventure, living out the time
Wiped from earth without a mention, go out riding high
So I arise, from my grave, stand in front of those that i must save
I was never born to this, I'm not brave
But i cannot expect myself to survive
The starrcade lie
Starrcade fire
One day i wont wake up
Constantly in pain
Once our world forsakes us
Nothing left the same
Live by my own volition, die consumed in fire
Subsequential demolition, universe conspire's so,
I arise from my grave with the galaxy enslaved
I will lie, in their stead. With the suffering on my head
The quest for hope is undone, now that im the only one
Watch and see, all is gone. it was our fault all along
Twisted by these blinding visions, i wish i could go back home
The void ablaze but in remission
I am last to die
in Starrcade's fire

I LOOK ACROSS THE HORIZON
MY FACE IN THE WIND AND THE SAND AT MY FEET
THE BREEZE OF THE OCEAN
TAKES ME BACK TO THE PLACE I BELONG
MY LAST HOME
ALL IS GONE
NOTHING MORE
SO ALONE
I STARE AT MY REFLECTION
AND CANT HELP BUT WONDER WHERE ALL WENT WRONG
ONE LAST MOMENT OF SILENCE
AS I DROP TO MY KNEES AND PRAY
CANT SEE BEYOND THE HORIZON
WISHING FOR SOMETHING TO BREAK THE NEXT WAVE
I GET BACK ON THE OCEAN
WAITING FOR DEATH TO TAKE ME AWAY
DRIFTING ALONE ON THE OCEAN
SUFFERING MORE EVERYDAY
CHASE THE CLOUDS
CHASE THE CLOUDS
AND LET THEM TAKE ME AWAY
DRIFTING ALONE ON THE OCEAN
SUFFERING MORE EVERYDAY
CHASE THE CLOUDS
CHASE THE CLOUDS
AND LET THEM TAKE ME AWAY
FROM MY LAST HOME
WHERE ALL IS GONE
NOTHING MORE
STILL ALONE
FROM MY LAST HOME
WHERE ALL IS GONE
NOTHING MORE
STILL ALONE
DAY AFTER DAY
WAVE AFTER WAVE
I CHASE THE CLOUDS
TO FIND A BRIGHTER DAY

SKY FALLS
FROM THE CLOUDS I ARISE WITH MY SKIN ABLAZE
WITH MY WINGS
STRAPPED UPON MY BACK, I AM A GOD
PUSHING THE LIMITS
TEN THOUSAND FEET ABOVE, I TOUCH THE SUN
BURNS MY WINGS
ONE BY ONE
DRIP BY DRIP
ZEUS HAS WON
YOU CANNOT ESCAPE THIS PLACE
YOUR FATHER TOLD YOU SO
THE GODS HAVE SENT YOU PLUMMETING
TO THE GROUND BELOW
I DROWN IN THE SKY
WITH NO PLACE TO GO
I WANDERED TO HIGH
MY WINGS ARE NO MORE
HOW HARD I TRY
NOTHING WILL CHANGE
NOW I CANNOT FLY
I CAN ONLY PRAY
WITH MY WINGS
STRAPPED UPON MY BACK, I AM A GOD
PUSHING THE LIMITS
TEN THOUSAND FEET ABOVE, I TOUCH THE SUN
TOUCH THE SUN
AND FALL FROM GRACE
EACH PASSING MOMENT BRINGS
MY GREATEST FEAR TO LIFE AS I
FALL
I
SEE MY LIFE FLASH BEFORE
MY EYES AS I GROW CLOSER TO THE
GROUND
IMPACT APPROACHING
MY BODY TORN TO PIECES
BY THE JAGGED ROCKS BELOW THAT BREAK MY
FALL
WHY
FOLLOW THE LIGHTED TUNNEL
TAKE ME FAR AWAY FROM THIS
PAIN

Hypostasis
03:31

|

I lay here trapped in this place
Immune to time and to space
I try to break through the door
But i cant move anymore
Ive been here longer than time
Cant count the years if i tried
I stare up into the sky
How many years since I died?
The stars have dropped out of line
The fabric of space and time
Are tearing before my eyes
Was this a trap or a lie?
I will my powers to grow
Until its ready to blow
Abeam of light from my soul
Cant be contained anymore
Unleash the darkness inside
There is no place left to hide
You see inside me are visIons of the deep
I cant be stopped and you cannot repent
My will to breathe is forced out of contempt
As i awake from hypostasis sleep
I force my blood out from the ground
One million lives fall in my wake
Now I have come through time and space
A million years spent in hypostasis
The walls have fell, unlocked the cage
A prison no more, this hypostasis
A prison no more this hypostasis
I drop to the floor
My power is growing now I have awakened
We are marching to war
No longer bound to the facade
You put your faith in your god
But I am your god now that i
Awakened my body, my bloodlust, this hypostasis has
Awakened my body, my bloodlust, this hypostasis has
Awakened my body, my bloodlust, this hypostasis has
Awakened my body, my bloodlust, this hypostasis is awake

Christ, I set my soul free
As I eat his flesh, Until the sunrise
The darkness, embracing me
Defiant , led out into mystery
Silent, guided by my destiny
Smiling, Right into my soul
I come from the lord
This is my way
I ravage the earth
I devastate
I come from the lord
This is my way
Beg forgivemess now
Take me inside
The bloods like water
That flows like wine
The ever lasting ties that bind
Its only the weak
That stand in my way
I come from the lord
This is our way
Rising from the bowels of the earth
Is an evil, that's as pure as ever known
Hatred's all consuming, all's destroyed
The darkness, is a veil forever more
The bloods like water
That flows like wine
The ever loving ties that bind
Lambs to the slaughter
Destroyed by time
The darkest reaches of my mind
Its only the weak
That stands in my way
I ravage earth
I devastate
I come from the lord
This is my way
We can not be saved
From these open graves
As the strings are pulled
Life is understood

CRY AS DEMONS TAKE YOU
YOU'RE NEVER COMING BACK
WITH A NEW AGE DAWNING
THE WORLD WILL FADE TO BLACK
RISEN FROM THE GRAVE
THE HEAVY HANDS OF TIME
HOW IS THIS THE ANSWER
YOU'RE RUNNING FOR YOUR LIFE
FROM GODLESS EYES
A CRIMSON TEAR WILL FALL
BEHOLD THE LORD
WHO IS HELD IN HIGH REGARD
BY THOSE THAT FEAR
THE PEOPLE WHOM POSSESS
MORE OPEN MINDS
AND WILL NOT BE CONTROLLED
ANGELS FALL WITH BROKEN WINGS
SOUNDS OF WAR ARE DEAFENING
ACROSS THE WORLD THE PEOPLE SCREAM
RIVERS OF BLOOD ON EVERY STREET
STINK OF DEATH AND ROTTING MEAT
GENOCIDE IS NOW COMPLETE
KNEEL BEFORE ME, I THE RESURRECTION
I CAN GRANT YOU ALL OF GODS PROTECTION
ALL YOU DO IS HAND YOUR SOUL TO ME
SIGN THE LINE IN BLOOD AND YOU ARE FREE
GOD COMPLEX

THIS BURDEN CRUSHING DOWN
I CANNOT SUSTAIN
MY STOMACH ROTS INSIDE
SPEWING HATE
RUNNING FOR YOUR LIFE
FROM THE PAIN WITHIN
CRY WITHOUT REMORSE
NOTHING TO FORGIVE
HUMAN MORALITY IS UNFORGIVING
IRRATIONALITY IS FOR THE LIVING
A LONESOME FIGURE AMONG THE MILLIONS
A FADED MEMORY OF SOMETHING DECENT
WALK ON THROUGH THE OPEN DOORS
LET THE DEVIL TAKE ME HOME
SEE ME WITH THE MARK UPON ME
I AM NOT THE VICTIM I AM NOT THE CROW
SLIPPING AS THE DARKNESS TAKES ME
I AM NOT THE VICTIM I AM NOT THE CROW
OPEN THE LID ON THE CASKET
I AM NOT THE VICTIM I AM NOT THE CROW
WALK ON THROUGH THE OPEN DOORS
PRECIOUS MOMENTS TURN TO STONE
DREAMING NOW OF NOTHING MORE
LET THE DEVIL TAKE ME HOME
I AM THE VICTIM
I AM THE CROW
DREAMING NOW OF NOTHING MORE
LET THE DEVIL TAKE ME HOME

Phenotype
02:51

|

A composite of organisms
Morphing through biology
Changing right down to genetics
More than just anomalies
Phenotypic variations
Evolutions amputee
Paraste manipulations
Driven to insanity
Im born of myself
Grown into myself
The structure of your being is moulded everyday
Effected by your makeup, laid down in DNA
Fundemental distinctions at cellular levels
Shape yourself into what you're ment to be
Molecular sequential info
Flowing fromwith inyour cells
Building blocks that shape you into
What stands before you today
I, rise I, rise
Phenotype
Phenotype
The structure of your being
Is moulded everyday
Effected by your makeup
Laid down in DNA
The Structure, of my identity
I cant control
Defining me, In all capacities
It makes me whole
Im left to be, Trapped in sanctity
Whats to behold
A dead shell, without entity
Devoid of soul

Velocirapture, upon the cross like a lizard, green christ
Velocirapture
Velocirapture your tiny arms were the initial sacrifice
Velocirapture, the means become primal
Velocirapture
Lie awake for I, Velocirapture
I will not be saved Velocirapture
Kneel before the altar of the blessed carnivore
Open up your arms to me and live forever more
Embracing in the suffering, this crown upon my head
With blessings from Jurassic god, I rise up from the dead
I will not bow down to thee
Accept the penance of your blasphemy
Let go the chains and let the blood run faster
Velocirapture upon the cross like a lizard, green christ
Velocirapture your tiny arms wont heal
Velocirapture, it opens the door
Staring down from the cross like Jesus Christ
From up here I can see out the shore
With out the nails, the view would be so nice
Let it all be undone, Velocirapture's the fallen son
It could all be so nice, Velocirapture's the Lizard Christ
As the days carry on, Velocirapture's dead and gone.

At the end of the 18th century
The citizens of France were fed up with the government
In a fight for their equality
Climaxed with the rise of Napoleon
Take up arms and storm the Bastille
17,000 men will fall
Stand up, we, the third estate
decapitated from within the thrall
On my grave, will the French bring back quails
On my grave, will the French bring back the......
..reign of terror in position, treason's death by guillotine
New alliance in position, fight against the war machine
Louis, Louis, bow down to me
Demoralized by death and taxes. Nobles and the clergy
Watch people starving, people dying. We rise up for liberty
On my grave, will the French bring back quails
On my grave, will the French bring back quails
Its the guillotine for you
Treason is punishable by death
Do not decent
Your government
We know
Whats best
We own
Your debt
And you
Will be left
Poor
And cold
and dead
On my grave, will the French bring back quails
On my grave, will the French bring back quails
