Mor 04:18
She bleeds heavily, just for us to burn it. Black blood. Burnt blood. Mother will bleed us out...
2.
Your eyes shine of deception, and your words are drenched in lies. Your poisonous smile outshines the sun. Invalid excuses fill the air, leaving no room for breathing. Inbred and greed fed, heartless and mindshed. You speak words of a hero. Words that are burnt down. Rally the masses and bring down their heaven. You speak words of a hero, but your words are broken. Rally the masses, and bring down their heaven.
3.
I’ve been falling for thousands of years. Imagine the height of deceit, the width of disgrace. When the lights go out, you will finally see, all you ever did was in vain. Perecieving reality, blind folded. Worshiping dogmas, vile minded. The beliefs that you carry will unfold and cut like a wire through your heart. So sick of borders and lines. So sick of faith and lies. Imagine the height of deceit, the width of disgrace... I was born under the dark sky of the moon from where i gaze upon the false promises of light.

Rebirth 03:11
Where do we go from here? I guess it’s not a happy place... I’d like to think that there’s still hope for us. Maybe there’s not, maybe we’re fucked? Maybe everything has to end for news things to come, and maybe, everything has to burn, for news things to grow.
5.
Denialists 04:23
Denial Denial Denial Your world rules supreme [in another space and time]. Denial Denial Denial Misery is inevitable with men like you. Change is impossible with men like you. Disgust Disgust Disgust The things that you say, the words that you utter. War starts with men like you, and anguish thrives because of men like you. I wish i could get inside your head: Obscene Obscene Obscene I want to break it down, thought by thought, action by action. Misery is inevitable with men like you. Greed breeds men like you.

Decreased 02:52
Dead branches and rotting bridges. You left me hopeless, wretched. The cold wind sweeps the sky, making these grey clouds fly by, just like time... I take refuge at this place. It reminds me of comfort and bliss. But my mind quickly wanders away, setting fire to my thoughts. They burn... They burn my heart into a black, cold, dead piece of coal. It’s hard to come back here now. This refuge seems to decay faster for everyday. Dead branches and rotting bridges. You left me hopeless, hollow. Dead branches and rotting bridges. You left me hopeless, wretched.
7.
I am dying... Dying to tell you that we’re only grain getting crushed by the cogwheels of time. We are bound to time and space, only to end up grinded to mere dust. Can we break the illusion? There must be more to this than counting the minutes? At this rate, our hearts will turn to clockwork. Apathetic and automated, we’ll march on.
8.
For weeks i’ve been laying here. Staring at the sky, shifting from black to blue. My body withers for every day that passes by, leaving me without tears to cry. For years i’ve lived with nothing but fear and hatred from those who blindly stands in line. This grain of love is what has kept me going. I have seen what’s going on behind the curtains, and my heart bleeds for the ignorant. Pigs and serpents thriving in a throne room of blood and gold.
9.
Broken Flair 03:26
Empty words gushing out. Loosing my mind by the minute. Please stay and curb my broken thoughts. Spiraling deeper into hopelessness. Please pick me up and get me out. Dreams are drowned in an ocean of fear. Distant trust. Doubtful recurrence. Disruptive needs. Broken flair. Hope is crushed by waves of despair. Dreams are drowned in an ocean of fear. I have reached the end of this spiral and your absence is the only light that shines.

11.
Where the walls are coloured by depression, and notes of panic dance through the hallways. That’s where you will find me. Locked away in this shell of mine, thinking up ideas of grand measure. Weightless, but still sinking. Transcending, but still tethered to this earth. Knee deep in emptiness, my earthly shell weakens, allowing my mind to ascend.
12.
Comfortress 03:00
“No”, you say as i show you the truth. “It’s all make-believe”. It’s as real as your ignorance. You built a fortress around your mind with shutters before your ears and eyes. You can’t see through the lies. The comfort of not needing to think on your own. The nightmares you spare yourself by keeping your eyes wide shut. Step outside your great walls, and see how this world burns.
13.
Mitt sinne är trasigt bortom all tänkbar reparation. Det enda som håller bitarna på plats är att jag vet att du stämde in och sa: “Jag vet” Jag har försökt att finna känslor i ett hav av tomhet. Mitt hjärta, tungt och kallt, och gång på gång, likt en sten sjunker jag till den hårda bottnen. Djupt där nere är det bara jag. Jag måste lätta mitt hjärta, men jag vågar inte. Ingen skulle förstå, bara du. Jag förstod inte din tystnad förrän du försvann. En tystnad som säger mer än tusen ord någonsin kan säga. Det satte skräck i deras o-[så]-säkra sinnen. Människor vars världar flyter i vitt eller svart. I deras ögon, var du ingen.
