Broken hearts, shattered years Swollen eyes and endless fears The Beginning of an End All the pleasure, all the pain Embers of our dying flame Hurt enslaves all love in vain So we’ve plead this plea before Withered petals hit the floor Drowning in our sea of blame Every shield and every sword Cut us deep into the core It is clear we’ve been betrayed We are lust, we are scorn A thousand words like a thousand thorns Lacerate our burning hearts (Oh, no) All the pleasure, all the pain Embers of our dying flame Hurt enslaves all love in vain So we’ve plead this plea before Withered petals hit the floor Drowning in our sea of blame Every shield and every sword Cut us deep into the core It is clear we’ve been betrayed All the pleasure, all the pain Embers of our dying flame Hurt enslaves all love in vain So we’ve plead this plea before Withered petals hit the floor Drowning in our sea of blame Every shield and every sword Cut us deep into the core It is clear we’ve been betrayed All the pleasure, all the pain Embers of our dying flame

The way you roll your eyes The verdict on your tongue The pleasure in the tone Of every word you spoke Announce your scorn to be Before we come to close Now break us piece by piece I’ll feed the endless need My Favourite Enemy A plea to set us free My Favourite Enemy Before you walk away Please turn and steal my gaze My heart is in your hands So shatter all our hope I crave to feel you strike The storm before the calm The everlasting night I’ll feed the endless need My Favourite Enemy A plea to set us free My Favourite Enemy And in the violent night I know you follow Within the darkest light, Dependent sorrow And in the violent night I know you follow This endless need This endless need Please set us free I’ll feed the endless need My Favourite Enemy A plea to set us free My Favourite Enemy

We count on lies, our frail disguise Believe we’re safe for now So neatly dressed and dignified Our virtue to vice, so far gone We turn our guilty eyes To hide our inner strife We can’t feel it anymore The pulse of days before The pulse of days before… No breaking point, no end in sight The tension forever prolongs The truth we create, wicked design Our story of lies goes on We turn our guilty eyes To hide our inner strife We can’t feel it anymore The pulse of days before Take me to the place where I Once reached for the sky Dreams veiled in silver lies Where light filled our eyes Now we beg for sun to shine But grey is all we find No trials for the crimes Across the Great Divide Across the Great Divide We count our lies, our failed disguise Enraged and disavowed Profoundly lost and dreary-eyed We seek only to be found We turn our guilty eyes To hide our inner strife We can’t feel it anymore The pulse of days before So we fill our hearts with coal To fuel this state one more And wait to subside Across the Great Divide

This cold is all around us It follows every day We hide out in the sun As if we can escape Meaningless it seems This life and all the pain But in every fleeting light A reason to remain You can’t take away the sorrow But you can feel the hurt Remember all the peace That has built you this curse Sometimes we lose the ones We’ve grown to love the most It always seems unfair The cruelty of the loss We rise and we shall fall It’s etched in all our bones But the time that we do stand Defines our memoirs most You can’t take away the sorrow But you can feel the hurt Remember all the peace That has built you this curse The pain seems everlasting Just know that it will fade And that memories abstain The Soil of the Grave (solo) You can’t take away the sorrow But you can feel the hurt Remember all the peace That has built you this curse The pain seems everlasting Just know that it will fade And that memories abstain The Soil of the Grave The Soil of the Grave

Come with me, sweet Louise Cleanse these eyes of misery I can see you’re for me But time’s not on our side Like flowers of the night We bloom beyond the light Our lives become entwined, Entombed The Rise and the Fall So timeless are we all? Believe that love, my dear Won’t make you suffer Those eyes and the claws Monsters, aren’t we all? Believe, my dear, You’ll suffer Won’t you see what we could be Through those eyes of brown and green A version of eternity Endless and finite The beauty in the rust Of ashes and the dust Defy the equinox Sans rue The Rise and the Fall So timeless are we all? Believe that love, my dear Won’t make you suffer Those eyes and the claws Monsters, aren’t we all? Believe, my dear, You’ll suffer You’ll suffer… Her tentacles Entwine my soul Rise the light I can’t let go The Rise and the Fall So timeless are we all? Believe in love my dear… The Rise and the Fall So timeless are we all? Believe that love, my dear Won’t make you suffer Those eyes and the claws Monsters, aren’t we all? Believe, my dear You’ll suffer You’ll suffer…

Don’t you see that we’re the same A broken heart and one to blame? Keep holding on to feel the pain Just to feel alive The life is lost, it’s dead and gone The beat I feel is our closing song And I just can’t wait, my darling To sing it again She reveals it in her eyes The fear consumes tonight This flame won’t cleanse the lies Where Dead Hearts Reside I can be your everything A lasting love, and endless dream But we choose to fight We choose to lie We choose to die The life is lost, it’s dead and gone The beat I feel is our closing song And I just can’t wait, my darling To sing it again She reveals it in her eyes The fear consumes tonight This flame won’t cleanse the lies Where Dead Hearts Reside We will see the other side Beyond the crimson light The ruins and somber skies Where Dead Hearts Reside Where Dead Hearts Reside Where Dead Hearts Reside She reveals it in her eyes The fear consumes tonight This flame won’t cleanse the lies Where Dead Hearts Reside We will see the other side Beyond the crimson light The ruins and somber skies Where Dead Hearts Reside Where Dead Hearts Reside Where Dead Hearts Reside

When the moon has reached the sky And the dusk consumes our hearts Flickered flames begin to rise Love’s Inferno soon will start And I feel so alive In the moments when we hide And I feel so divine In the gaze of her eyes All I need is in your arms ‘Till the breaking of the drawn And we’ll face the rising sun With souls on fire And I feel you’re the one for me, baby I conceal you’re the darkness in my dreams Gentle words with violent force The draft behind the flames A veil to seal the curse Where nothing more remains All I need is in your arms ‘Till the breaking of the dawn And we’ll face the rising sun With souls on fire And I feel you’re the one for me, baby I conceal you’re the darkness in my dreams And I feel you’re the one for me, baby I conceal you’re the darkness in my dreams There’s an ode in her eyes My heart reveals the words I feel them burn inside Love’s Inferno begins its rise Feel it rise

Dawn of Rust 04:43
Can you see what is left? Nothing here but emptiness And I feel bound again Every night, at close of day We shut our eyes to feel awake We don’t feel alive anymore I can’t take this anymore I know I’m not alone Falling in the Dawn of Rust We can’t be here anymore Losing in this war Falling in the Dawn of Rust Can you feel anything Besides the ice and bitter rain? As we die, alive, again Coldest days, warmest nights Embrace the dark and shut your eyes We don’t need the light anymore I can’t take this anymore I know I’m not alone Falling in the Dawn of Rust We can’t be here anymore Losing in this war Falling in the Dawn of Rust Can you feel the frozen heart? Can you see how hope departs? They hold your hand Kiss your lips Forge the law And Kill the Bliss I can’t take this anymore I know I’m not alone Falling in the Dawn of Rust We can’t be here anymore Losing in this war Falling in the Dawn of Rust We’re falling in the Dawn Losing in this war Falling in the Dawn of Rust

These words that I’ve found Are savage and profound They’ll sink deep just like the knife This valley of rue A stark gift from you I pace through the darkest nights Oh, I see dead leaves take flight Oh, I fear temptation’s cold bite Darkness Collides Bled tears in her eyes Sweet words from a tarnished tongue My heart in her hands Her hips held in mine Who makes the mistake this time? The trust that we had Now dust in our past This curse that I bear Just hardly seems fair Try as I might to evade this plight I can not escape all the time Oh, I see dead leaves take flight Oh, I hear the violence in silence Darkness Collides Bled tears in her eyes Sweet words from a tarnished tongue My heart in her hands Her hips held in mine Who makes the mistake this time? Darkness Collides Bled tears in her eyes Sweet words from a tarnished tongue My heart in her hands Her hips held in mine Who makes the mistake this time?

Take your place in line And fill your head with lies Drink the sacred wine But oh, please don’t think twice Supremacy in words of fallacy and hate Open the books to find the meaning Separates Creed or insanity? A Voluntary Disease Creed… Bow you head, my child And don’t you dare talk back Your life is slavery Now, haven’t you kept track? Divinity, the veil of ignorant denial Hold dear your sacrament of blessed Betrayal Creed or insanity? A Voluntary Disease Creed or naiveté? Elated and deceived Believe in He or I’ll make you bleed Believe like me or I’ll make you… Creed or insanity? A Voluntary Disease Creed or naiveté? Elated and deceived Creed… Believe in He or I’ll make you bleed Believe like me or I’ll make you… Bleed
