The Fear
03:57

Vile tongues of doubt derail those who dream
Imprisoning illusions fuel the machine
Scorn and sabotage the clouds that choke your will
To reach the highest peaks your terror must be killed
Heed not the braying of apathetic herds
Cowards and capitulators speak no worthy words
Bound by the fear, fools never begin
Paralyzed and sterilized by dread from within
It steals the fire from your eyes
Some never see through its disguise
Don’t fall victim
Don’t let it near
No matter what don’t give into the fear
Are you satisfied to stand in your own way
Failure claims its price until a shell remains
Mired in misery for all your lost years
Languish in bitterness, fallout of the fear
On your feet or on your knees, it’s not too late
Break free of the lies and seize your fate
Courage forms within and nowhere else
Only you can overcome yourself
It steals the fire from your eyes
Some never see through its disguise
Don’t fall victim
Don’t let it near
No matter what don’t give into the fear
Lonely nights
Dimming dreams
Into its chasm you fall
Wasted life
Missing meaning
This is the price if you give into the fear
It steals the fire from your eyes
Some never see through its disguise
Don’t fall victim
Don’t let it near
No matter what they say
Don’t throw your dreams away
No matter what don’t give into the fear

Tortured Earth
04:37
|
|||
Summer nights smolder hotter than before
Warming seas creep closer with every changing tide
Our home once lush and emerald
Sprawling beneath a sapphire sky
Blackened by smog, tarnished by greed
Scorching life down to the seed
Oh she warns us that our demise is nigh
In willful ignorance we close our eyes
When there’s nothing left to mine
Time runs out to free this tortured Earth
Though we look to the stars we have nowhere to go
When there’s nothing left to burn
We still have time to free this tortured Earth
Stranded on this world with nowhere to go
Blindly they watch the cataclysmic storms
In twisted towers of glass that cut the sky
Burning black gold looted from the soil
Foundations fall as raging oceans rise
Entranced by power, deceived by endless gain
From spires above the searing rain
With only profit on their minds
They never stopped to question why
When there’s nothing left to burn
Time runs out to free this tortured Earth
Though we look to the stars we have nowhere to go
Witness our greatest crime
Time runs out to free this tortured Earth
Stranded on this world with nowhere to go
As darkness falls survivors cling to life
Scavenging beasts live by the knife
Vacant city streets reek with the stench of death
Disease and desolation are all that’s left
Leafy tendrils strangle towers soaring high
All human hope is lost as day fades to night
Drowning cities left behind
Time runs out to free this tortured Earth
By our own faults we have nowhere to go
Now there’s nothing left to mine
How we failed to free this tortured Earth
Hordes of rats feasting on the dead
We did not act in time
The fall of man will free this tortured Earth
Shrouded in haze the stars give no hope
There’s nothing left to burn
We failed to free this tortured Earth
Famine and torment feed our regret
Stranded in this ruin with nowhere to go
