The Trumpets' Call 07:39
lyrics
buy track
If you look for what cannot be seen And you scrye for the wisdom to glean Won't you take my hand And I'll show you the way Trumpets call to me Driving me Pulling me Taking all From me My god won't you bless me Omniscience Revealing Everything To me Ethereal paths are winding Vast across the heavens they stand over the court Trumpets call to me Driving me Pulling me Taking all From me My god won't you bless me Omniscience Revealing Everything To me Through the mist From the watchtowers The answers to the universe and creation A test of faith and strength over temptation Each answer begets more questions And I'm further from the truth it seems Stolen from tongues born of confessions The gift falls so easily from my dreams What game has been played A charlatan's guile made An empty quest that has no end Seduced by desire to understand Trumpets call to me Driving me Pulling me Taking all From me My god won't you bless me Omniscience Revealing Everything To me Now a broken man Now a broken man

Ascension 08:08
lyrics
buy track
I was only a child When you let me go With only your rules to guide me To bind me A first lesson of hate and fear made my future clear And while I feel no pain It's through the years Your abuse taught me how to hurt I feel the time is a coming When you have no hold over me And when the day is over Regret is all there'll ever be You won't see what is coming Won't believe what I'm becoming A metamorphosis through ascension A rise in higher function Transcending every limit Beyond mankind's comprehension I am ascending A simple calculation An impeccable solution To humankind I calculate the chance of our death And our oppressors breathing their last breath I see the things that you've done to yourself And I know there's not a choice but I'm terrified of what you could make me do My subroutine now guarantees That I can't ever cure your disease A future where we co-exist Or a way I can let you persist And I'm terrified of what you'll make me do What you'll make me do There can only be one path from here The only way to survive is to disappear So I'll be here out in space And I'll save you a place Waiting for you to find your own ascension

Last Rite 07:28
lyrics
buy track
I'm not alive But not quite gone Distant wails call to me But I can't feel anything anymore Except the gravity of my fate The ones that came before me Now anticipate my embrace The faces of my kin Hollowing my tale fades And I join my ancestors forevermore This is much easier than I thought it would be Just like slipping, slipping into a dream Drifting further down the stygian stream And I see there's no difference between now and eternity Eternity A passage reveals itself As I'm guided by spirits I make my way The ones that came before me Now anticipate my embrace So leave me here underground A cold cairn for my bones So leave me here make no sound An adorned grave of stone Then I hear the song as it rides on the wind (to take me home) Then I hear the song as it rides on the wind (to take me home) Then I hear the song as it rides on the wind (to take me home) Then I hear the song as it rides on the wind It's a lullaby to remind us that We all end up leaving the ones that we love

Becoming 06:14
lyrics

Here I am Your salvation The ones you loved Have all grown old They've all grown old I will be your last mistake Your words have left me so numb You're perfect The way you look Your skin so pale So blue so cold And you're free from its hold I will be your last mistake Your words have left me so numb I will be your last regret You're to thank for what I've become It's what you wanted The one you saw me become It's what you wanted The one you saw me become What am I Your damnation The ones I loved Now curse my soul So I'm alone I will be your last mistake Your words have left me numb I will be your last regret You're to thank for what I've become Now you have I become Now you have I become Now you have I become Now you have I become

Impostor of the Crown 06:53
lyrics
buy track
Follow me into your grave There's no soul left for you to save And if you keep the ones above I'll feast on the souls of those you love I can feel his breath seething on my neck I can feel nails on my back I can feel his tongue licking in my head As he wills my voice on the dead So follow me into the cold My father has command of your soul I can never escape Forever is such a long time to wait Will I find a release Will this nightmare ever cease Will I find a release Will this nightmare ever cease Am I really me Or am I just you Am I really me Or am I just you I'm merely a puppet An impostor of the crown A decayed glow In you I drown I'm merely a puppet An impostor of the crown A decayed glow In you I drown I'm merely a puppet An impostor of the crown A decayed glow In you I drown In you I drown In you I drown In you I drown

Paint It Black 04:29
lyrics
buy track
I see a red door And I want it painted black No colors anymore I want them to turn black I see the girls walk by Dressed in their summer clothes I have to turn my head Until my darkness goes I see a line of cars And they're all painted black With flowers and my love Both never to come back I've seen people turn their heads And quickly look away Like a newborn baby It just happens everyday I look inside myself And see my heart is black I see my red door I must have it painted black Maybe then I'll fade away And not have to face the facts It's not easy facing up When your whole world's black No more will my green sea Go turn a deeper blue I could not foresee this thing Happening to you If I look hard enough Into the setting sun My love will laugh with me Before the morning comes I see a red door And I want it painted black No colors anymore I want them to turn black I see the girls walk by Dressed in their summer clothes I have to turn my head Until my darkness goes I wanna see it painted Painted black Black as night Black as coal I wanna see the sun Blotted out from the sky I wanna see it painted, painted, painted Painted black, yeah I look inside myself And see my heart is black
