New Age 05:28
5... 4... 3... 2... 1... Let me hear you scream It’s the countdown to extinction Let me hear you plead It’s the countdown to extinction Your days are numbered For the new age is coming Or so they preach when you want to pray Your days are numbered For the new age is coming Now be so kind, don’t forget to pay Atomic flames kill all germs Atomic flames kill all germs Surprise, there is no heaven Surprise, there is no hell for you You are the minion and your masters are dressed in black Viciously eating each other’s hearts and minds Every time they tell you to love But instead they teach you to hate Your momma told you empty words were fake Did you really believe That the holy execution Will exclude you? Holy fire is always hungry Did you really believe That the holy one Will be merciful? Holy fire is always hungry Atomic flames kill all germs Atomic flames kill all germs Surprise, there is no heaven Surprise, there is no hell for you

Luna 05:03
Luna cannot sleep at night Too scared to open her eyes She counts imaginary stars And as she’s sliding down the milky way Her shaking lips form a silent prayer ‘Bad men come and go’, she says ‘Tomorrow will be another day’ She wants to dream about simple things The smell of apple pie To keep her monsters away She wants to dream of trivialities She wants to keep her fears Underneath her bed Her eyes, once ocean blue Now stormy and so far away She never smiles but tells you - ‘I’m okay’ But you know that she can’t concentrate anymore Deep in the back of her mind Teeth are eating their way out ‘Hush, little girl. Tell me when it hurts’ She will never tell

Love 04:27
Senses lost, she likes her strings attached Forgotten independence, no more self-respect Forsaken dreams, she likes her wounds untouched Those sacred words once spoken, now a sin to forget You know what they say, love is pain She never sleeps at night, she never cries The tears he likes so much dried out just like her life She loves to feel his fist, his blood-shot eyes She is a silent scream, she is the perfect wife You know what they say, love is pain At night he cuts her skin with his desire She always takes it all, obeys his power Never close your eyes, never close your ears God might have blessed them once but god cannot speak You know what they say, love is pain

Feed my vanity Insanity feeds me Out there, behind the mirror Lies a land full of lies A land where I cannot believe my eyes The world behind the glass Is of an evil kind And there, in front of me My mortal enemy Oh, I reject this reality That rejected me And I am Spinning into darkness And I am Falling apart I sacrifice my sins To incarnate my dreams They tell me I must reach perfection They tell me I must feed on air If I adjust my reflection What else is there? I swallow another spoonful Of emptiness I swallow another spoonful Of death

Deadweight 02:20
Black smoke piercing my eyes Taking shapes of a familiar man Calling my name, waking me up From a dream that was meant to be eternity Will I give in to this force That melts my skin, cripples my voice Will I give in to this light That turns my heart into fire My heartbeat is letting me down My limbs grown into the ground I am the ashes, I am the dust Black smoke piercing my throat Yet in the dark, this yellow coat This man in a mask, a man of no face I’m drifting above as he carries my weight Will I give in to this force That melts my skin, cripples my voice Will I give in to this light That turns my heart into fire My heartbeat is letting me down My limbs grown into the ground I am the ashes, I am the dust 'Mary Anna, are you here?' 'Mary Anna, can you hear?' 'Mary Anna, don’t give up' Breathe in Breathe out

I talked to the Moon On my way back home Her cold silver eye Shed light on my neck While she whispered in my ear The night dressed in black Had a starless gaze And the Moon's dazzling face Had never been so pale 'I'm alone', she said And my hand turned to stone As her long icy fingers Carved lust into my skin Hand in hand we walked Down the milky road Hand in hand we walked Until we were seen no more She whispered in my ear Her blue lips very still My golden earring froze And shattered as she spoke 'I'm alone' The night dressed in black Had a starless gaze And the Moon's dazzling face Had never been so pale Hand in hand we walked Down the milky road Hand in hand we walked Until we were seen no more

I am the one Spinning the thread of my life I paired with Decima And I hold the blade The Evitable is my name My temple will soon become faint And my land will overflow With oceans of pain I shall open the gate I will open the gate I will choose to walk away They cannot force me to stay If I had wings then I would flee into the night Into the world where they cannot decide For the better of two evils I hold the blade They should stay out of my way I hold the knife They should stay out of my life I hold the thread They should stay out of my death The Evitable is my name You stay out of my way Out of my life Out of my death

Mara 06:00
Awaken, I am frozen Forsaken, I am floating In between the day and night Morpheus will not let me out of his sight That shadow in the corner That figure moving closer Is it pointing at me As I fail to scream Is it calling my name Is my mind insane Inside I am burning with fear Yet my body lies still I am numb in my fight The pressure on my chest The whispers in my head There is no escape No escape from here I struggle for a breath I struggle for a sign That I’m still alive That I am still here Trapped inside my skin Trapped within my dream I know this is real I know I’m still here The creature in my bed The voices in my head Will lull me to sleep There’s no escape from here I can feel its fingertips (Cold, so cold) Marking my despair That shadow in the corner That figure moving closer It is pointing at me And I fail to scream It is calling my name No, I’m not insane Inside I am burning with fear Yet my body lies still I am numb in my fight Pressure, whispers Fingers around my throat Pressure, whispers Fingers around me I can feel its fingertips (Cold, so cold) Marking my despair
