Nachtmystium The World We Left Behind 1. Intrusion [Instrumental] 2. Fireheart After the storm, he rises from the ashes Lust, soulless being Into the unknown, he roams Vengefully seeking, stolen time Fireheart! Blazing bright Fireheart! Resurrected this night Fireheart! Reborn Fireheart! Tearing down this world of scorn I've returned...from the lowest realms Taken a journey through my own personal hell This knowledge is gained, this pride is earned From walking the forbidden line and embracing the fucking burn Nothing of this world can stop me Leprous, underling serfs... You can't kill this iron strong will Beneath and below...eternally 3. Voyager Through all these years, after enduring so much Place after place, month after month Taking a moment to reflect To decide what is next Here I stand, a mere fragment in time Is any of this real? Is this not all a lie? Trampled and crushed, risen and praised This never-ending journey is a constant maze Striding along, year after year This is my calling, there is no fear Go at it alone, if I must! No one can never take away this lust! The vicious cycle of reverence A hellish ride of deceit Never know who to trust Will you be here tomorrow or disappear into time and dust? Here I stand, a mere fragment in time Is any of this real? Is this not all a lie? Trampled and crushed, risen and praised This never-ending journey is a constant maze Striding along, year after year This is my calling, there is no fear Go at it alone, if I must! No one can never take away this lust Here I stand, a mere fragment in time Is any of this real? Is this not all a lie? Trampled and crushed, risen and praised This never-ending journey is a constant maze Striding along, year after year This is my calling, there is no fear Go at it alone, if I must! No one can never take away this lust 4. Into The Endless Abyss The demon has awaken once again Slumberness, he has risen Taking my hand, together we walk To the same old ground... to bring me down This does not end Find yourself alone again Crippling pain endless unrest Never are you to sleep again This lonely place where I find a twisted peace Lurking in the shadows, away from all life It is always here for me... it is always here for me... This does not end Find yourself alone again Crippling pain endless unrest Never are you to sleep again The immortal fell into this mortal hell... When will you see? This life can not be... And when you open your eyes... Witness the devastation of deception and lies The immortal fell... into this mortal hell... 5. In The Absence Of Existence No grace, no love No anything, no eternal muse I'm here in fear No light, no joy Every day, the same This life is no life Faced with fire, diseased, I cry Never a moment to be away Trapped in this absence of existence Hidden away, alone I pray for a quick death every day Never a moment to get away Locked in this absence of existence Out of the way, day after day Withering away to nothing Extinct, burned out. Nothing to talk about Wasting away, losing time Dying inside every day am I Why am I still here? Never a moment to be away Trapped in this absence of existence Hidden away, alone I pray for a quick death every day Never a moment to get away Locked in this absence of existence Out of the way, day after day Withering away to nothing 6. The World We Left Behind The hours came The decision was made To leave this all forever [Chorus:] The world we left behind All we loved All we held The world we left behind Gone now... As we dive into hell An abyss opens wide Just before my eyes An endless darkness An absent space [Chorus] Black horizon dawns On a highway to nowhere Whore it leads no one knows But were never coming home [Chorus] 7. Tear You Down You didn't see me coming, and you never will I am the poison apple, the forbidden fruit Come, eat from the tree It will nourish your soul Take your fill... I am now in total control You're in my world now... A place of mystery Where there is no free will Destroying you... it's me Come... walk with me Down this path to greatness! Where you'll live forever... I promise This is mine, this is me! Tear you down, set you free Can't you see my greatness? My wrath? My prey... Tear you down! Set you free! Tear you down! Set you free! Tear you down! Set you free! Tear you down! Set you free! Can't you see my greatness? My wrath? My prey! Tear you down! Set you free! Tear you down! Set you free! Tear you down! Set you free! Tear you down! Set you free! Can't you see my greatness? My wrath? My prey! Tear you down! Set you free! Tear you down! Set you free! Tear you down! Set you free! Tear you down! Set you free! Tear you fucking down!!! 8. On The Other Side On the other side I have survived Didn’t think it be The hardest path I’ve ever walked Alive again, alive as me A frequal journey I wish I never known Lost myself Lost everything Lost my soul On the other side I have survived Didn’t think it be The hardest path I’ve ever walked Alive again, alive as me Trapped in mental [?] place For too many years Never going back Never going fucking back I am free On the other side I have survived Didn’t think it be The hardest path I’ve ever walked Alive again, alive as me No more sickness No more struggle Can’t believe I did this But today it’s gone On the other side I have survived Didn’t think it be The hardest path I’ve ever walked Alive again, alive as me 9. Epitaph For A Dying Star Desperate again. Fading away like a setting sun at the end of its days. These voices of decay taking me away. When you no longer see. When you no longer feel. The ride is coming to an end and you're ready to transcend; to escape into the distance again. No more pain. No more days. To escape... To transcend... This ends here in peace. As you reflect on all the things you have left behind, making certain peace with your world and walk on. When you no longer see. When you no longer feel. The ride is coming to an end and you're ready to transcend; to escape into the distance again. No more pain. No more days. To escape... To transcend... This ends here in peace.
