Are you too scared to see?To reach for your dreams?Are you afraid to thrive?Is this how you want to die?

Take this word from me Reach for all your dreamsDon’t leave this world poorMake this world your ownMake this world your ownTake this wretched world by stormT

EAre you afraid to thrive? In and out and questioning the space behind your eyesAre you too smart to be satisfied? Thoughts becoming misconstrued inside your mind

Are you afraid to thrive?To reach for the sky? To reach for the sky? This is not your life.

Are you too scared to see?To reach for your dreams?Are you afraid to thrive?Is this how you want to die?

Take this word from me Reach for all your dreamsDon’t leave this world poorTake this world by stormTake this world by stormMake this wretched world your own

Are you afraid to thrive? In and out and questioning the space behind your eyesAre you too smart to be satisfied? Thoughts becoming misconstrued inside your mind

Are you afraid to thrive?To reach for the sky? This is not your lifeThis is do or die

Tragedy has befallen meIn the house of sanity

Such tragedySuch tragedy

When I became so long ago I did not imagineWhy I’d behave enslaved to the derangedAbsurdities of modern society’s views of realityYou humans, where the hell did you even come fromGod?

Fire in the skyBurning through your eyesFire in the sky

Gunshots cracked their eyes It was fireworks in their sky

From the very beginningTheirs was a world of peaceA place of great beauty and compromiseWhere men looked upon red sunsets And knew nothing of warAnd then one day from the heavensThe first ship cameIt was forever known as the Starfall

Fire in the skyBurning through your eyesFire in the sky

Gunshots cracked their eyes It was fireworks in their sky

It came white hot with speedSpitting star light through the cloudsThey looked up in wonderWas this their god?Was this their salvation? In their world of peace They could never have knownThat war had come

They wept for their mothersIt mattered notFor the battle was brought

They tried to runThey tried to hide But nothing could be doneFor war had come

Starfall Starfall

From these first people humanity was bornWith the power for peace but the need for war

Whispering pointless Questions of me from afar Hidden antumbraTearing me apartContorting my scarsContorting my scars

Lost within a burning sonAs guilty as a smoking gun My shadow fadesFrom existenceFrom existence

Chasing my shadowBack through timeTeach me to flyChasing my shadowAll my life

Walking through fields of greyI see you slip awayDown like quicksandWhat have I become?What have I done?

What have I done?Chasing my shadowBack through timeTeach me to flyChasing my shadowAll my life My life

Shadows in the darkDriving me blindShadows in the darkFuel my blightTake me back to wartime

N Now its time to fucking decideWhat you’ll do to reconcile all your sinsOf that night, looking deep in her

I see through your lies, guilty conscience, unrecognizedI see through your lies, so sure of yourself, it’s a disguise

You rolled over to walk away You are guilty a debt be paid You tried to run with no way out

Truth, reconcile, you

Beg on your knees Cry to your god that he won’t listen to meBecause I’m wrong, I’m always wrong you’re always right Not tonight

I see through your lies, guilty conscience, unrecognizedI see through your lies, so sure of yourself, it’s a disguise

You rolled over to walk away You are guilty a debt be paid You tried to run with no way out

Truth, reconcile, youFrom the death of liberty

Policy conquered me

Now I see this vile disease

An obelisk resides beside my sideWhen I decide it’s wise Illuminating fearThoughts falsified but still clear

The beacon that it carries meNow this is your realityFields of slaughter unbuilt Blood will be spilt

An obelisk of painResides inside my brainAn obelisk of hateIs driving me insaneAn obelisk of woeFuels my sorrowAn obelisk of deathBeckons your final breath

Your mind is my slaveBreak free from me if you canBelief without question will be your end

An obelisk resides beside my side When I decide it’s wise Illuminating fearThoughts falsified but still clear

The beacon that it carries meNow this is your realityFields of slaughter unbuilt Blood will be spilt An obelisk of painResides inside my brainAn obelisk of hateIs driving me insaneAn obelisk of woeFuels my sorrowAn obelisk of death,Beckons your final breath

Your mind is my slaveBreak free from me if you canBelief without question will be your end.

Obelisk of painObelisk of hateAn obelisk resides

N Forced perceptionAn altered realityForced revelationA wide awake dream

Lost within the veilDying to feel life againReaching to touch your faceSuppressed is this my fate?

Fallen from their graceExiled to the darkest placeJust a whisper in the airNo one knows you’re here

Am I not of the living? Look I bleed, just like youFuck, my head is spinningI am not dead yet

Just close your eyesFeel the crowd, the heat of the lights Shed your un-kept fearFuck your odious tears

You see it over thereThe space where no one caresTreat your insanityWith a violent quick release

Destroy the peaceUnleash the beastand let him feast Testify to me that I’m in your reality

Bullshit, gets stuck in your teeth Don’t smile for society
