Album: Torment Of Failed Evasion [1999]
| Torment of Failed Evasion | |
|
Retreat into the shallows of light,
for weakness finds you safety,
the torment of failed evasion,
deaf from your own cries.
Once realized at ends,
stood alone with fate,
and now you've found,
that you've fallen
Self inflicted wounds,
won't numb the pain,
words pierce your heart,
drive you back from whence you came
Standing alone in the darkness,
the world collapses inside,
alone with a pillar of salt,
no where left to hide
Fearing the reprisal,
you bring about your own vengeance,
words said in defense,
solidify the unjust sentence
The pride enclosed with fear,
coated by coerced ignorance,
reflections of the faceless,
stares blankly at your soul.
Once realized at ends,
stood alone with fate,
and now you've found,
that you've fallen
Self inflicted wounds,
Won't numb the pain,
words pierce your heart,
drive you back from whence you came
Standing alone in the darkness,
the world collapses inside,
alone with a pillar of salt,
no where left to hide
Fearing the reprisal,
you bring about your own vengeance,
words said in defense,
solidify the unjust sentence
You must rise

| Enveloped in Misery | |
|
Tormented existence,
creation of your own design
Trials of failure,
the scars are left behind
Intent on living
your self fulfilling prophecy
Incapable of reaching a higher destiny
Destiny
Your callused soul
capsuled in rage
memories of happiness
long forgotten age
Enveloped in misery, lying in your grave
incapable of mercy, and the rest that you crave
these fatal truths, you fail to understand
Blood drowns your soul as you spit at my outstretched hand
Question not the scapegoat, but the image in the mirror
screaming reality, the glass is broken in horror
scattered shards lie cracked and broken
words worthless, unheard, but still spoken
Your dismissal of mercy
envelopes your life in misery
is it all worth the price
by which you abide
how does it feel to lay back- to lay back and die
how does it feel to lay back- to lay back and die
Enveloped in misery, lying in your grave
incapable of mercy and the rest that you crave
these fatal truths you fail to understand
blood drowns your soul as you spit at my outstretched hand
|
| Betrayal | |
|
Torture- of my crippled soul
is the result
of your spiteful words
re-open, festering wounds
Betrayal (2x)
I cannot believe,
the lengths to which you go to deceive
Carrying the marks,
of those you have scarred
Treachery is your game
you think you have something to gain
you cannot allow,
those who get close to hurt you somehow
You are alone
All alone
Betrayal (2x)
You will pay
for your sins,
I will live,
to see you suffer
That which is lost,
sought to be regained,
all those who got near,
viciously betrayed
Now- you- are- all alone,
no one will save you

MORBID PROPHECY
Counting the days,
before what was said has passed,
longing for the closure,
delivered at last
you foolishly doubted,
what had been foreseen
now you've fallen victim,
to the prophecy
As you stand, broken, alone,
staggering losses,
the fault is no ones but your own
given the chance, to alter your fate,
you did not believe, and now it is too late
Everything is lost,
nothing is the same
tragedy
You fell victim to the morbid prophecy
no escape, from your lethal destiny
you have lost all hope
there is no end in sight
you cannot escape
you cannot escape
As you stand, broken, alone,
staggering losses,
the fault is no ones but your own
given the chance, to alter your fate,
you did not believe, and now it is too late
you have been consumed
you have been destroyed
all this was foretold
by the prophecy
You fell victim to the morbid prophesy
no escape, from your lethal destiny
