Agony
1. Gone
Life - began - so simple
Gardens - of - ideas formed
Twisted - ideas - from inside
To - be - born again
Emotions - to - rise above
Gray - shade - of misery
Lost - to - a dismal past
Hate - dwells - inside me
Return... Reborn... Deny... Reform
Where do we go (from here) now that tomorrow's gone
How could something (so right) be so fucking wrong
Where did we go (from here) now that tomorrow's gone
Wisdom now recedes (in fear) watching as hatred spawns
Cast - through - dimensions
Life - now - subsides
Conquest - through - paradise
Lead - in - to despair
Emotions - to - rise above
Gray - shade - of misery
Lost - to - a dismal past
Hate - dwells - inside me
Return... Reborn... Deny... Restore
Where do we go (from here) now that tomorrow's gone

Where did we go (from here) now that tomorrow's gone
Wisdom now recedes (in fear) watching as hatred spawns
Return... Reborn... Deny... Reform

3. In Exile
I need, I breathe, selfish agony
You gave, you made, respect seem like regret
Remend, repent, a thousand burning lies
They've come to take your soul
You mean nothing
You are nothing
All I wanted, all I needed, you just took away
Reconfigure, reconsider, my mind in disarray
Violated, desecrated, bleeding works of art
Loss of vision, banish reason, forced into exile
Your truth, your faith, power overcomes
You rape, you hate, a child scarred for life
Born of, tension, anger is my life
Bleeding, seeing, I will dominate
Embedded is creation's demise
All is lost, all is gone
All I wanted, all I needed, you just took away
Reconfigure, reconsider, my mind in disarray
Violated, desecrated, bleeding works of art
Loss of vision, banish reason, forced into exile
Contrive, reprise, rage will fill my eyes
Warring, killing, another victim dies
They've come to take your soul
You mean nothing
You are nothing
All I wanted, all I needed, you just took away
Reconfigure, reconsider, my mind in disarray
Violated, desecrated, bleeding works of art
Loss of vision, banish reason, forced into exile
4. Passage
Burning as I breathe eternity
Watching as my soul absorbs the sky
Focused vision of things yet to be
In this hollow mist, my pain divine
Portal - into - dimensions
Leave - your fears - behind
Empire - of - reflection
Orgies - of endless - time
All the lies... they call my name
In my eyes... the world I hate
Elude to... a moonless sky
Frozen souls... cast into ice
Sorrow led the way into my mind
Silence put an end to helpless cries
Twisted feeling, all that you perceive
Left to rot in painful misery
Feel - centuries - pass
Struggle - of conflict - within
Hate - fear - pain
Anguish - burns - inside
Voyage through... oceans of dreams
Clouds divide... all that you see
Windless chill... flowing through me
Immortal... journey inside

5. Valley of Thorns
Thought they knew the meaning of life
Thought it held the answer to all your prayers
Children were slain by the lies
Never even knew they were wrong
Come with me
Come with me... to the valley of the thorns
I am your pain
I am fear in desire
I am despair
I am hate, in rapture
Trust in my lies
Take my hand, of promise
Blind is your greed
I will pray, upon you
6. Re-Define
Why
Do you hide behind
Why
Do you breed this filth
Transcend rage
Error gone wrong
Erase the years
Gone to waste
Souls to rape
In the womb
Re-define
Shades of life
Re-define
Right and wrong
Bleed
Helpless as you fall
Rise
Above this mortal coil
So impure
Human whores
Nailed down
Deep inside
Mind Control
Immolation
Re-define
Shades of life
Re-define
The way it goes
Now
Rise above denial
Kill
Thought supremacy
Shattered dreams
Lead the way
Reconnect
Nerves of life
Worlds apart
Burn away
Re-define
Shades of life
Re-define
Right and wrong
7. Sea of Tears
In this darkened age
Do you remember?
Tears of yesterday
Make my heart bleed
A world yet to be
Lost in my dreams
Rage in swollen eyes
As the angels weep
Drowning... in a sea... of tears... of tears
All the tears you cry are a part of me
Watching as all hope seems to fade away
Stepping in and out of reality
Filling all our lives with the agony again
Cries of a fallen race
They call my name
Close your tainted eyes
Take away the fear
Shadows cast upon your face
Like blackened rain
Turn away in disbelief
Moral thoughts are slain
Drowning... in a sea... of tears... of tears
Breaking all the boundaries of sanity
You make me sick with the lies that you believe
Suck in the pity with dignity
Ignorance flows like a spreading disease
In this darkened age
Do you remember?
Tears of yesterday
Make my heart bleed
A world yet to be
Lost in my dreams
Rage in swollen eyes
As the angels weep
Drowning... in a sea... of tears... of tears
All the tears you cry are a part of me
Watching as all hope seems to fade away
Stepping in and out of reality
Filling all our lives with the agony again
8. I Am Darkness
On the night
I feed
In the shadows
I dwell forever
The promise in my hands
It now melts like the snow
A world that once had light
A world I'll never know
Victims, they are fools
Of some forgotten past
An experiment in fear
Your conscience I will prey... upon
Empty lives, soulless forms, mindless drones
They've come to enslave
Blinded by purity, hiding in fantasy
Streets, they soon start to flow red
Looking down deep inside, feeding on helpless lives
Lost in this black parasite
I am... the pain inside
I am... I am darkness
I am... I am demise
I am... I am darkness
Erase your minds, clear the hate, dry the tears
Open your eyes
On the night
I feed
In the shadows
I dwell forever
The promise in my hands
It now melts like the snow
A world that once had light
A world I'll never know
Victims, they are fools
Of some forgotten past
An experiment in fear
Your conscience I will prey... upon
Blinded by purity, hiding in fantasy
Streets, they soon start to flow red
I am... the pain inside
I am... I am darkness
9. Carnal Voyage
Consumed in carnage
It's my addiction
Twilight of yourself
Evolution
A body, a slave
In my dominion
Kneel down before me... feel the skin
Hear lust beckon... I am lord
Bound to illusion... sacrifice
Carnal voyage... through your flesh I writhe
Awake but sleeping
They see and they sear
Effigy of flesh
Boundaries overthrown
Voyage through the veins
Of creation
To discover ways
To reclaim your soul
Kneel down before me... feel the skin
Hear lust beckon... I am lord
Bound to illusion... sacrifice
Carnal voyage... through your flesh I writhe
Ecstasy through pain
With such precision
Enzymes to corrode
Disemboweling rage
Realize the fate
Of those who suffer
Kneel down before me... feel the skin
Hear lust beckon... I am lord
Bound to illusion... sacrifice
Carnal voyage... through your flesh I writhe
