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 04:04
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!

"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

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 04:40
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 05:42
"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

Now at last I can see There was no hope for me My own guilt won’t let me be I ‘m trapped here for eternity No Escape X2 There’s no escape, my mind is gone There’s no escape, from what I’ve let myself become! I faced my fears, pushed through the pain But now there’s blood tainting the rain!
14.
Now I shall vaporize All truth and the lies! So you can realize The fear in my eyes! You led me here through all this mystery It was right here all along, but I was too blind to see I felt I should have known somewhere down the line But now you are gone and I’m left so far behind I wish there was someone out there, left alive to give me hope I wish I could have known, maybe I wouldn’t be alone (to choke) But there’s nothing left at all, in my mind or the external light The truth was here all along, the cure and cause of my own night There was a shadow in the back of my mind Took all I had and left me all behind It took control and took my life away I only pray I’ll rise again someday Maybe, one day, I will be free again Someday, I’ll kill this fucker in my brain I will free me and trap it deep inside But who’s me, who’s him, who will become alive? My yin to his yang, my soul torn in two For now he has crossed; I pray for death, but he prays for the death of you!
15.
I am lost, in this bottomless pit! The darkness has consumed my tormented mind forever!! My mind is a labyrinth of doors Each of which leads to my end There’s no hope they’ll be unlocked There’s no hope in heaven send The real me trapped deep within My duality caused it all God have mercy on my sin I’m up to my knees in the blood of families! Their tortured cries are still haunting me! I loved them, but I watched him as he killed them all! The Id inside me, he can’t kill me so he laughs as I fall Now there’s no one left, to give me strength, to give hope to me Please give hope to me! He has won and I have lost He rises as I pay my cost The tale of a broken man; I shouldn’t have gone so deep At least I’m happy where I am, within my eternal sleep At least now, he can’t hurt them anymore At least now, I can be alone to think, to consider as I fall At least now, I have freedom in my eternal loss And when we die, I can fade away, and nail him to our cross! Shock Denial Anger Begging Repression Anxiety Depression Acceptance of my misery...

Welcome to the universe... Welcome to the universe city Welcome to a place where the minds of millions can become one (collective knowledge) Where the cutting, bleeding edge of technology rules (permanent progress) You can expand your mind, leave the past behind and become the next big thing Or you can hide away, and then seize the day, to rise into immortality The infinite advancements from within the Universe City Choose life, choose love, choose anything you want to (specialize) Pay the price; rise out from the vice and into a whole new world The ghosts of those before you lead the way into the sky Don’t question what you’re told, and you’ll never find the reason why Welcome to the gates Of infinite knowledge Where you’ll never have To bow to another again The infinite advancements from within the Universe City We will help find your inner strengths; you’ll see the way in the Universe City Do not be dismayed by what you can see All shall be welcomed to our universe... The infinite advancements from within the Universe City Come in from the cold, walk in though the threshold, you’ll see the way in the Universe City

There exists in nature one shape that hides in another It’s nothing like its clone, yet they are closer than bothers I will come to extrapolate the factors of fact Once you see the equation, there can be no turning back Science generates a facade of sense and simplicity Underneath the surface we will find this duplicity Come on now, don’t you see? A gateway to history! No god could conceive Our intricacies! Order and chaos Are one and the same Shoulder to shoulder Sharing no name! I will come to extrapolate the factors of fact Once you see the equation, there can be no turning back Science generates a facade of sense and simplicity Underneath the surface we will find this duplicity Crushing all I understand Blinded by the light so grand Sword of truth and shield of lies Soul of both deceives the eyes How can all I know be wrong? Lies despise me all along Photons bend with shifting time Generate this shape! What can you see? Can you believe? There are no miracles Just what we perceive What can you be? Anything! So become everything And nothing like me! Crushing all I understand Blinded by the light so grand Sword of truth and shield of lies Soul of both deceives the eyes How can all I know be wrong? Lies despise me all along Photons bend with shifting time Generate this shape of mine I will come to extrapolate the factors of fact Once you see the equation, there can be no turning back Science generates a facade of sense and simplicity Underneath the surface we will find this duplicity Crushing all I understand Blinded by the light so grand Sword of truth and shield of lies Soul of both deceives the eyes How can all I know be wrong? Lies despise me all along Photons bend with shifting time Generate this shattered find Now I know I’m left behind This shape of mine

"I am certain now; my will to fight has given in I feel no remorse; as others pass and fade, I will move on" There is nothing left, to keep me tethered to this world I have left you all behind; I’m seeking out my final light I don’t want another voice to tell me how to live this life How to behave, I’m not gonna change, yet I can’t remain inside any more... The Silent Space, I’m trapped inside it now The Silent Space, I’ve got get outside somehow "Inside this paradox, the gap in my thoughts where I am free You may call it insanity, but without it, there would be no me" And yet I must learn to shed my skin, to think again in a different way None must see me for what I am, and yet you can and I can’t remain If you wish to see me again, listen to the voices inside your mind One of them is likely me; the voice that became my insanity The Silent Space, I’m trapped inside it now The Silent Space, I’ve got get outside somehow The Silent Space, the figure stalking my demise The Silent Space, the door to the soul behind my eyes Behind my eyes (X3) And now I’m hanging my noose I can’t live with this painful sound, the noises that are screaming in my head For the first time I am free, free from the chains of what you've made me see! The Silent Space, I’m falling from it now The Silent Space, all that was known has died inside somehow The Silent Space, that figure watching as I fall The Silent Space, the door locking me away from it all The Silent Space, the whispers you hear now you’re alone My Silent Space, my dying gift is now your own

"Watching the world Seeing the pain Makes me sick inside Living the deviant strain" RECTIFY! Tugging at my heartstrings The numbing ache I’ve come to bear Facing false illusions Knowing that we simply do not care How can you be so blind? To quench my need for hunger Closed minds, short lives We’re never growing younger Turn the heart of glass to stone! Know I’m forever alone! Pull the wool over my eyes! Pretend that no one sees the lies! Maybe you would understand If I stop asking and demand? This is how I want to be! You have no right to control me! I release this strain Falling off into the rain I throw down your banner and give back all you gave to me You try to crush our will Make our efforts turn to nill I rip down your flag and burn it, I hope that you will see We are not the weak! We are vast and you are few! Sit in your grey, repulsive rooms It’s time that someone told you The power that you say you wield Is naught but bureaucratic lies Rip off the suit, expose the fraud There is no reason in their eyes! I have finally found a place Where I can show my real face This like-minded insanity Is all that’s left to comfort me! Maybe I would understand If we stopped fighting over land I will love and tolerate While you destroy all we create Realization comes in a spark I know how to deal with you! Violence feeds violence No one will win, we all will lose! I will rise above your faith And while your gods procrastinate We will become greater than thou Through the shattered silence you hear now! Oh, I only wish that you could come and join us Oh it’s such a shame Maybe some were meant to fail (predetermined) Or die a death in vain (for a god without a name!) I release this strain Falling off into the rain I will not fight you because you’re not worth my time And now I finally see This is not my reality I will leave this hopeless race and go to claim what’s mine Never stills my shame But at least we have a name! To carry the burden of reason, we are all insane! (Are we all insane?)
