Everlong
For what was lost
A past of shadows
Your crimson stains
Tell a heavy cost
My lonely love
Come with us

To kill the night
And sail the lights
So that all these voices
No longer wage in your mind
Trading hate for life
Where songs collide

I hear the news about your cause
You threaten love to fuel the heart
Bound to rest in your coat of arms
You storm the night like a castle wall
What you find inside, it is what you fought
If truth is hope, then hopes the cost

It’s not the end of light, though hate reside

Back to the beginning

Where tragedy ruled
I burned down my fortress
And became something new

Embers declare their rise
From a fate that I met
Ashes rebuild, remind
Of a journey that ends

Ah, forfeit
Fearful ancient lies
Fist to sky
Can you find

This stone read to passers-by
I laid and wondered
What could be done
So, I crumbled it to dust

Peace flows through the veins
For the first time
Sweet relief for I am beautifully ‘I’
Wonderfully made to rise

Shall I awake, where torn I became
The depths I w

Carry me out there
Beyond the atmosphere
I really want to know
See if our likeness lives
In the stars, I’m here
I’m ready for a show

I for one, well I for one
I stand in the mind of a maker
Out here
Brace for the Sun
See comets run
I find there’s a h

Bridges burn

Terror underneath
You lie face-down
Colors fill the streets
Made the attempt
Searching for a why
Lost thy name
While looking for a sign
Should have looked inside

Spoke in vain
Always out of reach
You shout your blame
Curse the grou

A tribal speech contains
It's own division
Where the trenches go deep
In no man's land, one must decide
Black or white
Keep the eyes closed
And stand at attention
Then, return the battlecry

Could I hold my breath?

Call of my own
The divide is
Makin

The air is pure

The grass, it breathes
Each blade, a whisper is calm
And trusting in it’s place
I dig my toes into the earth
And lie beneath the trees

It was then I found
The stars were made for me
It was then I found
That I can finally dream
Believe</

The wicked unclean
We despise the name
Of those we crush
We select beings
Who deceive
And yet, speak for us

These mirrors
Reflect the truth
What we’ve done
No one else to blame
Except, all of us

O the tragedy
As we try to breathe
In a world

Empire: O divine,
Could you bear this weight?
I’m paralyzed
Refused, to feel
A vacant heart as hard as steel

Divine: You, always waiting to follow
Choose, if you live before you die

Empire: How long I’ve crawled into the dark
Wary, I’d stay fallen
Stranger

Blinded we’ve become
To carnage and violence
These hands bound and tied
To prosper, within lines

The weakest; prey for kings
The design of our being
Pretend we’re surprised
When we consume
And take sides

Are we owned
Are we clones

On the line

I can see
My own penance deems
A lane to perdition, I seek
I seek another way home
For all that I’ve done
Can’t resist what I’ve witnessed
Breathe
Realize I’ve been given a means
To fight until the daybreak
Until I fall

Carry on, please lead me to someth
