FIFTY FOUR
Take my breath away
Keep me occupied
I've already forgotten
What I am leaving behind
Deep in solitude
Now I understand
What you've failed to
Read in between the lines
Life is just a cage
We need to escape
Take it apart to
Give us something to believe in
Consumed by the aimless
Give titles to the nameless
All the effort is painless
In the absence of reason
Substituting for a lack of stimulation
Seeking out the offspring of my mind
Beneath consciousness there’s desperation
That fits nicely into my design
When the pressure builds
And shreds the ire
Eroding into
Something we all admire
Suspended in the dark
The silent aether
Cascading from a spark
Into the object we desire
Control is an illusion
We fight and we are losing
What good are memories
When they begin to decay
It's here I can feel it
It’s real I have seen it
Abused but I need it
Call me and I will obey

The Hunting Ground

Made of flesh consumed by the same
Ear to the ground all senses burning
Can you wear the lion’s face
Fueled by the blood of the lamb
Hear that wild call
Smoke them out
Rise or fall
Become what you fear
Running down a faceless beast
Hesitate and lose it all
Look through the hunter’s eyes
Hold firm with a hostile hand
The secret is that I’m already lost

We Are Wrong

I've been working hard
But not for long
Everything is clearer
With the right head on
A simple circle
Becomes the sun
Everything it touches
Carries on
It's as easy as it seems
Is what you're going to tell me
Blinded by ignorance
Is how I want to live
Everything I see
I can't forget
Even if it's something
That hasn't happened yet
Every passing day
There's a moment to explore
Break down the meaning
Until it means no more
And the moments became too many
Time keeps passing on
One day we understand
The next day we are wrong

Castle in the Sky

Crave what you hate
A junkie for displeasure
Go to where the road bends
It’s so familiar
Close to the edge
Fringing on the terrible
Dine on all the strange you find
Eat your fill
Couldn’t see the splendor from the underground
There was no will to satisfy
Pull me out of the loss and the ruin
Those broken pieces will build our castle in the sky
Rein in the chaos
It’s what the people want
No sudden movements
Just wander among the stones
Stand in the river
Watch the madness float away
Breathe deep the freedom as you
Let it go

The night sky is a canvas for my dreams
A chance to change my perspective
Where the whole world spins backwards
And I'm not part of it
Well I'm not part of it
I just want to know what it's like
To live without the restriction
Bend in between what is real and imagined
And never make a distinction
Why have you brought me here?
Through cosmic undertow
A witness to the emptiness
To prove that I'm alone
Following the lines that I've traced in reverse
I don't recall the beginning
The darkness is so misleading
And I'm lost
How does it feel to be spinning
On a tangible wave of magnificence
As an ignorant drone, completely unaware
And obsessed with your own insignificance

I am a messenger, hear my pain
Through the veil of time
Witness to creation
The first to be aware
I am no servant to the
Ponderings of fools
Cry beyond the stones and clouds
Leave me with your fading sound
I know the nightmares, what they mean
What you should fear
The shadows in your head
The violence in your hand
Be not a patron to
The failures of the damned
When you scream at the night
Do you hear my reply?
Let your voice be heard
So I may twist your words
Bitter tongue and broken verse
Flying on an endless search
Faded by an ashen shroud
Listen for the echo now

The River
05:42

|

Charging down the way our heroes go
Head-long into darkness, the unknown
Always ascending just to fall so low
Left to wander for the common soul
The earth is parting and the vultures fly
Statues crumble while the pharaohs die
What glory lies beyond the river’s flow?
We’re unaware how far this shadow goes
Spoils for a sordid end
Held so passive by a jaded hand
Enfeebled by both sword and pen
Retreat along the paths of weary men
Where does the river flow?

Biased bassist opinion: The bass guitar driven sound of this massive power metal masterpiece made me want to grab MY bass and learn every song in a way that hasn't happened to me since the first time I heard Iron Maiden - Powerslave! These aural annihilation anthems are filled with expert musicianship and exquisite lyrics belted by one of the best voices metal has to offer! Do not pass this one up!
