From Chaos Comes Sanity
04:43
|

Open my insanity
So I’ll never ever see
Remove my ability
To see what has come to be
Individuality
Made me go away from me
Maybe now you’ll see the truth
Taking all I have become
I could never be someone
Outside this oblivion
I could never be someone
This is the truth that you have taken from me
This is what you made me be
Finally you have come and now I see
All my shame became my sanity
From chaos comes sanity
From chaos comes sanity (in this mind of my own)
I will never seek you out again
I will damn you and fight you and lead till the end
By example I will crush you until I’m all that stands
Impervious to shame, I reject your demands
This will not be how it will end
This is not the
End of these lies that you’ve made about me
This is what you choose to be
Finally you have come and made me see
All my pain became my sanity
“Question my sanity all you want
Your words fall upon deaf ears
For you are now the mad ones
In this story to come”
Take back all that you have given to me
This is what you want to see
I reject you and forget all that you came to be
From chaos came my insanity
Yet chaos is sanity (Yet chaos is sanity)
From chaos comes sa-ni-ty
From chaos comes sanity, ohhh
From this chaos comes sanity

Disconcernia

Somehow, everything fell down again, we went too far
Too far, to go back up, we went too far down
Locked outside, I cannot see the sun
What the hell could I have done wrong?
I’ll see never see the light again
I’ve lost that point when I remember when
I felt I could live in this life
I felt so cold in this dark light
Somehow, everything fell down again (we went too far)
Too far, to go back up, we went too far down
You and I, one and the same
We shared a life and felt each others pain
But life together became such a strain
And I know now that we could never remain because
I felt I couldn’t live in this life
I felt so trapped in this dark time
Spitting daggers though my head
I think I’d rather end up dead
A first attempt at ruined game
And now I bow my head in shame
Somehow, everything fell down again (we went too far)
Too far, to go back up, we went too far down
Falling down again
And now I know this is the end
When will we ever get this right?
And purify our fading light!
I refuse to give up hope
We are still alive, we must be close because I see the light
Somehow, everything fell down again (we went too far)
Too far, to go back up, but we’re still trying
Somehow, everything seems alright again, we made it this far
Too far, to go back down and we’re still climbing!
And we are climbing again!

Souls of Insecurity

"I am the shadows in the street
I am the rats among your feet
I am the hollow that you feel
I am the pain that isn’t real"
You run in torture and in pain
Never falling only to regain
My darkness comes and swallows you
In stasis nothing you can do
The life that I hold in my hands
Manipulating everything I can
Hurt you in every single way
Hurt you but still you will remain
So come evil, come and take all my pain away
But don’t forsake me
I will not fight you every time
Because I’m what’s yours and you’re what’s mine
Because you're mine
Devil in heaven to believe
The gift of pain you will receive
To fill your soul with all it's wrongs
And cleanse you with unholy songs
And in this moment that we share
I’m sorry but I do not care
Can’t hear you’re screaming from within
Feeding the monster that’s my sin
So come evil, come and take all my pain away
But don’t forsake me
I will not fight you every time
Because I’m what’s yours and you’re what’s mine
Because you're mine
You are one I’ve found tonight
You won’t even put up a fight
You run, give me the chase I need
We’re living insecurity
Ride the fire, all the way down
Swallow your sadness, we will both drown
You're not the first, you're not the last
The taste of your tears is what I'll never fast
So come mankind, come and take all my pain away
And please forsake me
Because I will fight you every time
Because I’m not yours and you’re not mine
Seeking out refuge in every day
Seeking our pleasure in every way
Now I love you and you hate me
We share this moment of our misery
We share a moment of our misery
We share this moment of our misery
We share this moment and our misery

Child of Our Times

It’s almost like you knew what was coming
You say that you don’t like Mondays?
Talk to me; explain to me, the reasoning behind this brutality
Or make believe that there’s nothing there!
Build your disguise and close your eyes, drown out the cries to realize
I’m always there, not that you care, so just stop and stare
Now that it’s over, I ask to you
Was it all worth it, to just see it through?
Will you remember this as a good day?
If the answer is yes then just take her away!
Take her away! (X2)
Talk to me; explain to me, the reasoning behind this monstrosity
Or we’ll believe that there’s nothing there!
Pick up the stone, assume your throne, and chose his fate: annihilate
Your life is gone, yes all along, your life wasn’t fair!
Now that it’s over, I ask to you
Was it all worth it, to just see it through?
Will you remember this as a good day?
If the answer is yes then just take them away!
Take them away!
Take them away!
Exposure to deceit when there’s not enough to eat
You know you can’t hide from the blame (the blame)
It’s never over, it’s always the same
A life without hope is the fuel for the flame
We were the cause of this morbid parade
And the children are left here with nothing to say.
Everyday stories of murder and loss
You just walk on by but who’ll pay the cost?
I hope that you choke on the words that I say
But if you close your minds then just take me away!

We are living in the day
Of lies and the machine!
More important than the life
Of another human being!
Sacrifice your hard earned time
To a screen of redefined
Dimensional suppression
Choking meaning from our kind!
Slowly turn the wheel
Of another hopeless day!
We are choosing our restraints
Pretending someone hears
Our vain complaints
As if we think they care
We are so dependent
On the ghosts of our design
We need to redefine
What it means to be human!
And so we go to live inside
A space, a void, a way to survive
And so why don’t you see what I’ve been through
To get to where I am today?
Just take a moment and before you know it
You know what I am going to say
Kill harmony, change destiny
This is the reason for humanity!
Soiling the sky, bleed till you die
Soul of the poison I see in your eye!
I feel so lost in the day to day
The struggle of the normal way
I’m drawn to the vision of the machine
So I can understand what I’ve seen
And so why don’t you see what I’ve been through
To get to where I am today?
Just take a moment and before you know it
You know what I am going to say

My mind is playing tricks on me; for a moment I thought I was something more
I’ve forgotten all have I’ve learnt, and now I have nothing left to come home to
You stare upon me now, and tell me how to feel
But I don’t want to hear you, I don’t want to know
All that I’ve become, this mental sodomy
My wretched morality won’t leave me alone
Feel the rising from within, the out-breath of the damned
Like an animal uncaged, now set free to show its rage
Join us now
Come with us beyond the deadline
With the miserable and pathetic
Excuses of mankind
We are free to fail
We are free to believe
That we have potential
That we can become anything you’ll be
Feel the chaos of collapse, and know what you’ve become
As your memories fade away, and your body becomes numb
You know that you deserve more, but you know there’s no excuse
You have let yourself come here, and now you’ll hang your noose
Feel the barriers come crashing down
Feel the waves of light and feel the sound
Feel the love of the failed one; it leaves a scar for me and you
And now you understand, for you have failed too
We have collected these examples of the light
We have submitted; there is no need to fight
We have been corroded, and we have become
All these disproportions, now our time is done
Now my time has come!
Now I think you’re done!
Now at last I’ve won!
But look at what we’ve become!
And as the acid breath, parches all our land
We shall see our time run out, fade away like grains of sand...

Are you listening? X4
Listen to me!
Listening to the voices in your head!
You must
Increase
Your capacity!
You must
Protect
Your identity!
You are
On a
Mission of seeking
There are
Synthetic
Eyes that are watching
Do not betray us now
We will help you somehow
There are those who hate you
We’ll tell you what to do
There will be no remorse
Or escape if you fail us
There is no way to determine
The outcome of this
The outcome of this
We will
Promise
Not to lie to you
You can’t
Trust them
To help see you through
Do not betray us now
We will save you somehow
There are those who hunt you
We’ll tell you what to do
There will be no remorse
Or escape if you fail us
There is no way to determine
The outcome of this
Please stop pretending
This war is over
Please stop ignoring
As they watch over your shoulder
Are you listening?
There will be no remorse
Or escape if you fail us
There is no way to determine
The outcome of this
We will disconnect your mind
And replace your thoughts with ours
Do not think anymore
Close your mind and forget everything

The Game
04:42

Walk around; hear the sounds echoing from underground
The words of whisper scream for revolution
Life cannot just be contained, our freedom cannot be re-framed
We walk the path backwards of devolution
Your corruption sickens me
You “know-it-all”
We are the ones to burn you down
Until you fall, until you fall
Charge across our only border
So you say
Immolation of ourselves
Is the price we pay
The land itself is now our mind, the vengeance of the redefined
You cannot kill without retaliation
You see the flame, you see the blame, you seek an ending all the same
You see the shame of our entire nation
Now you know the answers and the lies
We expect a reason why
For our all own actions on this day
Oh can’t you take our pain away
Why won’t you take our pain away?! (Pain away!)
As our cities lie in ruins
Ash of destruction becomes the fuel
To hard reset our own direction
As the liar becomes the fool
Like a Phoenix, rise from the ashes
Into the hope of a brighter day
Now you know the chaos and the shame
We hope you won’t just be the same
For our all own actions on this day
We pray the pain will go away
The monastery burns as you try to save
The bleeding figures of the brave
For now the silence replaces fame
Demanding an ending to this game!

Chloromotion

"Break the chains, breaking free
Rise out from what’s killing me" X4
Breathe it in, let it out
Getting deeper, scream and shout
Ride the apex of this flight
Hang from the edge, must put it right
Now don’t you give up
Now don’t you turn your back on me
Not after all the things that we have seen
Feel the lump down in your throat
Open your eyes, try not to choke
Break down everything inside
Turn from Jekyll into Hyde
Now I won’t give up
Now I won’t turn away from you
Close your eyes, see the signs, I’ll help you through
All this time, I’m so afraid
Terrified of what I’ve made
It’s the fact that we’ve become
Close inside and yet so numb
This is like insanity
At this point I intervene
It’s the fact that I‘ll never see
The chloromotion deep in me
Exuding flames all around
Hate the pictures, hate the sound
Hate that keeps me on this throne
Hate that keeps me all alone
Now I know why I resist
Taste the anger in my fist
Now I know why I submit
A puzzle piece that’s forced to fit
Now don’t you give up
Now don’t you turn your back on me
Not after all the things that we have seen
All this time I’m so afraid
Terrified of how I’m made
It’s the fact that you’ve become
So ashamed and yet so numb
This is like insanity
Give me something to believe
It’s the fact that you‘ll never see
The chloromotion deep in me
So deep in me
Agony, ecstasy
This is how I wanna be
Breaking chains and now I free
The fumes of green from within me!
All this time, I’m denied
All the things I want inside
It’s the fact that I’ve become
So composed and yet so dumb
Now I am left to choke
On my creation, without hope
It’s only now that I can see
The chloromotion deep in me
(The chloromotion deep in me)
Make what you want out of me
It’s just the words that I can see
And now I know what to believe
The chloromotion inside me
