Technology will conquer, Biology will fall
Machines provide the means for the chosen few
To rise up and be "immortal"
Discard the body to elevate the intellect
Remove the head, remove the soul, implant the artificial
Remove the head, remove the soul, dehumanize…NO!
Shake

If my body was broken open and you could look inside
Would you only find flesh?
Just useless parts of an obsolete machine?
Would there be any sign of life?
Or would you only find death?
Would there be any evidence of a human soul trying to escape?
If a flame once burned w

I bear these scars
A constant reminder of my own inadequacy
I've held everything and nothing all at once
And all at once been altogether broken
But even scars fade with time
Only You remain
And my determination is not enough
Even so, I bear these scars

The final chapter has already been written
The story has been told
In another dimension, beyond the reach of time
There is no more, no more to behold
See the artificial light now
It is flickering, fading away
Eternity is right now
It is fusing with today
Breathing

From somewhere in the darkest depths
Within the cloth of secrets kept
Out of silence death maintained
Resounds a voice that shakes the frame
Listen now unto the call
Like nothing heard before
Living hearts begin to crawl
Bursting forth through stubborn flesh

These are the times that try men's souls
In this the age of obscurity
The world awaits its own demise and all creation cries out
Unleash your devastation
Like a pestilence throughout the land
Bring utter desolation
Let your judgment fall
Pour out your power
Pour o

Awakened from the shadows
Leaving behind that cold and silent planet
Moving through infinity
Into the embrace of heaven
Eternity has overtaken me
Eternity is inside of me
My eyes have been illuminated
To reality; the fallen state of earth
Revelation penetrates the

IN THIS HOUR THE TOWER SHALL FALL!
Initially they rationalized with futile speculations
Which brought about their ultimately fatal calculations
They sewed their own eyes shut
To protect them from the light
Closed the doorway of their minds
Barred and sealed it tight

[Part I: Deception]

Death reigns over the earth
Oppressing justice and truth
Nations plagued by despair
Are collapsing hopelessly into themselves
We watch while sanity dies
Forever lost upon the Earth
Countless souls embracing condemnation
One by one marching to

Deep within the ocean's keep
There lies a corpse in endless sleep
A searchlight pierces the abyss
And the darkness groans in great distress
I am the ocean
Keeper of every darkened soul
The never ending throat of death
That swallows continents whole
Now the ground

The earth is shaking
Because of His wrath
The mountains tremble
At the sound of His voice
He pulls down the sky
To crush His enemies
He descends upon them with fire
He is clothed in greatness
His voice resounds throughout the earth
His vengeance no longer is c

This life is an open wound that will not heal
I cry out to God with all of my strength
Desperately I reach for Him in the night
This misery keeps my eyes from closing
Keeps my mouth from being able to speak
Is this as far as the arm of God extends
Has the fire burned

When the mountains crumble into the sea.
When the stars fall from the heavens and scorch the earth.
Then every knee will bow before the flame.
And every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
Forever.

The number of men who carried the flame continued to increase
And a massive force was gathered just outside the prison
Where the evil one had trapped the souls of men
And with a sounding trumpet
In an instant the siege was underway
The forces of humanity swarmed the enemy c

There is a pattern of deception growing
Feeding off of our ignorance
IT WONT LET GO! Until we let go
IT WANTS CONTROL! Just take a leap of faith
So many times we doom ourselves
But the root is always the same
We exchange our faith for rational thought
We trade our con

The time has come
Arise from death
Victory is close at hand
Take up the sword and follow me
Out of nothing into a new creation
A thousand decades of despair will pass away in an instant
And You and I will be there
With hands raised in victory
Fall on your knees

And so was the plight of man for generations
Their souls remained frozen
Enslaved in darkness
Until the day that fire fell from heaven
Those who witnessed the blaze took up torches
And carried them into all the earth
Bearing witness that fire would be the key
To undoi

In the time before the great fall, the power of fire was known to man
Imparted at creation as a vital component of the human soul, and the only knowledge that the enemy did not possess
And the reason that he deceived humanity
Many ages have passed since that time, when the evil one m

Oh Lord my God
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout the universe displayed
And when I think that God his Son not sparing
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in
That on t

In ages past
I spoke to man
Like man would speak to me
I rode upon the four high winds
And
Crushed adversity

In ages past
I spoke to man he spoke to me
And crushed adversity

My power was shown
In works of might
That my children
