Stuck between the essence of Life as the Conscious grows Wakes in space, the fabric has lifted, he shows his face Decider bearing no boundaries He waits to claim again I have drifted far from my home now I am on approach with the Great Void Set to be the end for the conscious Regrets will form again This space it is nothing but darkness and endless cries A God eating that is eating the souls of the ones who fell behind Forget everything I used to know It seems my life has gone to waste Starring into a dimension Where light can't run away I'm crossing over now (i'm crossing over now) One more time I'll see the truth from this One more time I'll live my life in an instant One more time I'll give in. Set this straight One more time I'll see a different perspective I have drifted far from my home now I am on approach with the Great Void Set to be the end for the conscious Why did I live this way? This space it is nothing but darkness and endless cries A God eating that is eating the souls of the ones who fell behind Forget everything I used to know It seems my life has gone to waste Starring into a dimension Where light can't run away You think there's something more out there? I know there's more out there Bring me home.

Endless peaks of dunes around me Grain by grain I tread bleary Seeking forth the pulsing light above the skyline Back from another life No sense of who I was before Faint visions of an entity beyond my consciousness Back down, you're vulnerable Beg for your heart to hold This life was not one to be tamed by innocence Forefit To the pressure of emotional pain They know All the things that make us whole Blinded By the light they cast in the sky Control By their power they control us all Control us all We cannot be so blinded by "The Man" His only wish is to watch the world collapse What's this mean to you? What's this mean to you? No sense to run, no sense to carry on your grave No place to hide, no place to keep yourself alive In time you'll tell, in time you'll see the world a lie I will not stop until this man is dead I can't believe I've suffered for What I'm told is the perfect life Perfect lie We cannot be so blinded by "The Man" His only wish is to watch the world collapse What's this mean to you? What's this mean to you What's this really mean to you? Rest assured, you will remember us

Metaphysical 03:37
I am the stray Distant from home I am lost in this haze They watch me so carefully Ghost in my eye Haunting relentlessly Taking my life, purging my energy (Facing my boundaries, I've come to terms with this. My soul is hurting, product of my own flaws. Each night of terror, pleading desperately) I am the stray They watch me so carefully Ghost in my eye Haunting relentlessly I've sat awake all night The voices say I am the harborer The gift of sin They stare at me, right through my lies These are renditions of my own distress Just learn from my mistakes, don't wait to change at all They lack all empathy to save another soul I've had enough of this It's time to change Break Indolence Breathe Refinement Don't wait too long These vices led me to insanity Locked in a paradox Far from this conscious life I used to have The silhouettes appear Their eyes, they glow Is this the work of God? Or something more? I'm indifferent It's time to change These walls are closing in Don't wait too long Just learn from my mistakes Don't wait to change at all They lack all empathy To save another soul I've had enough of this It's time to change

Illusions 03:10
My eyes open, and I'm starring at the ceiling It's the same old one I've seen a thousand times before Here I lay again, where nothing is changing I'm tossing and turning, my heart beat is racing I turn on the lights, breathing so heavy I'm pacing and thinking, I'm always thinking I won't ever overcome this depression I just want to live forever Live each and everyday unchanged Be there for one another Don't be a victim of regret Someday you'll understand All that we have And all that we see Depictions, Illusions We take them for granted All that we have And all that we see Our lives have it's limits Let's face it, embrace it Teach me how to feel again I wanna know 'Cause lately I've been holding on, I can't let go Take me away from these Illusions in my head I've wasted so much time instead
