Grey Skies Fallen
Molded by Broken Hands
1. A Twisted Place in Time
In this age of madness
The darkness settles in
A different kind of being
Another way of seeing
Everything is twisted
And logic is resisted
Refuters of the science
A misguided alliance
When the truth becomes conflicted
Reality has shifted
Disturbance in the distance
Altering existance
And we will come to find
That everything has changed
Silence for the old times
What's infesting our minds?
Instead of marching forward
We have been standing still
Backwards in most cases
It's a bitter pill, in fact
It's twisted. This place in time
Yes, it's twisted. This place in time
Witnessing a new world
Being born before our eyes
Severing the ties
This wasn't meant to be
Hoping it's a dream
Where nothing's as it seems
2. Molded by Broken Hands
Pain envelops his soul
He cries to the heavens above
Rage begin to take hold
And nothing, save vengeance will make him feel whole
The way the weak, a coward's retreat
Pointing the finger at everyone else but himself
A sign of the times, when will enough be enough?
How much of your young must you entomb
Before you all open your eyes?
The seeds were sown
Long before
Just had we known
All along
Fear encases his mind
He stares at the sun as he screams
Which renders him blind
On through the night
He scratches his meaningless words
across pages of time
The way of the weak, a coward's retreat
Of course he realizes he's not only hurting himself
A sign of the times, isn't enough now enough?
How much of your blood must you all spill
And why won't you open your eyes?
Open your eyes!
It takes more than your empty words
To bring about real change
Your cries, your payers go unheard
Bickering still, what is to gain?
As the bodies grow cold
Choose not to see
You've got your heads in the sand
The signs have always been there
Been molded by broken hands
The way of the weak, a coward's retreat
Now that he issued his judgement, he's ended himself
A sign of the times, it seems that enough's not enough
How much of your life must you all lose
How long 'til you open your eyes?
3. No Place for Sorrow
Is it true when they say
Try to live every day
As though it were your last
Once you do, you will find
You'll achieve peace of mind
It starts by letting go of your past
Leave it behind
There's no place for sorrow
I've been hiding all my life
Just a prisoner to my memories
Feel the need to make it right
I cannot have this be my destiny
This ends tonight
Struggled at times
To break the ties that bind
Shaken and torn, it's not the time to mourn
Rise up and scream, bring sorrow to it's knees
I've been twisted back to form
Stronger now to fight my enemies
Keep on weathering the storm
It's me who gets to write my legacy
This ends tonight
Struggled at times
To break the ties that bind
Shaken and torn, it's not the time to mourn
Rise up and scream, bring sorrow to it's knees
It is true I can say
That I live every day
Without a thought of the past
It is gone. It's denied
I have cast it aside
Without any doubt, it must last
Leave it behind
There's no place for sorrow
4. I Can Hear Your Voice
I feel the walls are closing in
The pounding in my chest is unrelenting
Uncomfortable inside my skin
These thoughts racing through my mind
I just need to pass the time
I know it lies so deep within
The reason my pain is never-ending
There's no escaping this 'til I begin
Accepting that I will not thrive
I want to live, not just survive
The pressure I am feeling
The noise inside my head
Incapable of of healing
There are times I wish that I was
Standing pn the precipice of life
Trying just to catch my breath
Eliminate the source of all the strife
I just want to be ordinary
I never felt right to begin
Season after season
There has to be a reason
Life's a game U cannot win
This nightmare, the bane of my existance
The pressure I am feeling
The noise inside my head
Incapable of healing
Just languishing and suffering instead
I can hear your voice
I'm breathing, the air is flowing in
Seeing things clearer now
Until the next one knocks me back again
Repetition is wearing thin
When I'm in the grips, on the firing line
I hope I hear your voice one more time
5. Cracks in Time
Raise your eyes
Internalize
The winter chill puts cracks in time
Demons rise
They come tonight
Crawling out up through the grime
Steadfast, diligent
Headstrong, vigilant
We have ice in our vein
Facing enemies
Unknown before this
We'll be laying them all to waste
Burn the warlocks away
Burn the witches
Purify
Rationalize
Then blame away
Twist the knife so deep inside
Stoke the flames
And feed the fire
Burn it all to the ground
End of servitude
There's no solitude
We are taking it all away
You've no common sense
There are no regrets
We would do this again
Stake the flames
Feed the fire
Burn it all to the ground
And see their kingdom fall
Coldness puts cracks in time
6. Save Us
We're wasting our time once again
Our suffering means nothing to them
Depsite what we're told to our face
They keep us tied down in our place
In searching for ways to escape
We realize and accept our fate
It's part of their plan to destroy
Made clear by the tactics employed
There's no escaping
We're in their sights
A meager resistance
We're dead to rights
This information is insincere
Manipulation of our fears
The path to freedom
It won't come cheap
A violent uprising
The cost is steep
This information is insincere
Manipulation of our fears
I can't see a time
Where we hold our future in our hands
We can't use our minds
With our heads buried in the sand
Buried in the sand
It's no way of living
Offering their hand
We take what they're giving
I can see it's looking grim
There's no fight inside
Nor is there loss of life and limb
We've given up, we've already died
Save us
From the madness
And the torment
We have lost it all
From deep down inside
We must gain the strength, and the will to rise
Cos' Only we can
Save us from this place
Where we only know what they've told us
Forever
7. Knowing That You're There
When I lie awake I think of you
And I am overcome with emotion
While thinking what to do
The only thing I can provide to you
Is guidance, and hope that you remain
In this world you know
You have your word
That you would see things through
Yes it's hard to see
Through the clouds that fill the skies
In the darkest times
I can see the light is in your eyes
Fight for your survival
It takes all you have
I'll welcome your arrival
Back from the depths
Life is fleeting
It's not fair
Though I feel better
Just knowing that you're there
8. Severing the Soul
With good intentions
And open arms
You were welcomed
Depsite my qualms
So undeserving
I can see it now
It was this betrayal
That sent me down
Into the otherwise unknown
Searching for a sign
There has to be some hope
Some way that I might find
What I need
I see you can't provide
Because when I bleed
You always seem to hide
Steadfast and determined
Until my final breath
My loyalties cannot be questioned
I lay it on the line
The same cannot be said for you
With visions of my death
I get the feeling on the inside
The trust is gone
Extinguished like a flame
I'm severing the soul
Because the wounds in my back
Have yet to close
I am severing the soul
Remove the blade
And make me whole
I feel much better right now
No whispering in my ear
Don't need your validation
I see it all so clear
