1.
Incentive 03:55
Cast aside any thoughts of safety This moment has already passed We all have failed at least once but we should not stand still Did you come to your senses? Take my outstretched hand And follow me west Because we are moving on
2.
Resolution 03:18
Thousands of lives passing before my throne Marching to the sound of my voice Thousands of lives Muted by my fury Who will survive? Their fates in the palm of my hand I'll make a fist I'll strike them down None will survive Admit your defeat and show us your heart, The heart of a coward And the insight surfaced, The truth revealed You realize, You can't stand your own ground Among the raging chaos Only one soul succeeds Among his dying comrades Only one man still stands Only he stands The lifelong strife, his only teacher The bitterness of solitude, his greatest strength This nightmare is his life Thousands of lives passing before my throne Marching to the sound of my voice Can you see it in his eyes? He has the strength to carry on

Faceless 03:36
More and more I am growing to hate these decisive moments I remember how you used to be But look at you now, (look at you now) An empty husk with no sense of identity A choice has to be made Will I turn away or reach out..? Remember those who lost it all Or will you let them fade away forever!? But now..You've become..You've become faceless! These vacant eyes tell the bitter story of change Fear what you have become I thought your image was burned in my eye Seems like time disintegrates all I believed that I would never forget you Memories never persist Fear what you have become I hate these decisive moments But my choice is made The faintest of memories reignites My choice is made I will set you free Follow me in to the.. the horizon Remember those who lost it all Or will you let them fade away forever

Resurgence 02:43
Here I stand Severed from the strings on which you used to play You brought out the worst in me I rose from the depths As a tower above you No other way out I can't hold back anymore Abandon all hope My eyes radiate with the fury of the sun You grew a plague in my heart No escape, no shelter I am the fear No safety, no rest I am the retribution There is no hope for you No more chances I won't rest until I hold you lifeless in my arms I am the architect to your ruin the witness of your fall I am your creation Nothing more but what you've made of me This cannot be undone This cannot be undone this will not be undone No escape, no shelter I am the fear No safety, no rest I am the retribution There is no hope for you face the threatening sky I bring nothing but your end face the threatening sky I am nothing but your end
5.
Perpetual 03:32
I broke through Wave after wave The tide won't take me in tonight Here amongst grief stricken ghosts The perpetual motion of the ocean Soothing the bitter taste of decisions made Look at what we have become A sad parade with nothing Left to lose or gain anymore Never forget I am the one Who had the choice to make Who carries the weight My song has long been sung but you can make yours count Don't make the same mistakes Don't make my mistakes Whatever wave may come I will not be washed away On the shore I reside An unceasing monument of sin These words repeating endlessly I realize That you will never understand But all i did, All the sacrifice Was for you Our choices became The oceans between us Drifting further away
