01. A Bid Farewell - Lyrics:
I will bid farewell, sever the ties
This is all I am, this is all that's left
Turn from deceit, the love of self is death
Deliverance is given to you
I will bid farewell
Sever the ties
Now your heart beats black with deception, you have been forsaken
Leave behind (I will) all reminders of you
I will bid farewell
To all lies
I will bid farewell
Sever the ties
Searching, always searching
Hoping for a change
I will never be satisfied
I will now bid farewell
I will bid farewell
To all lies
I will bid farewell
Sever the ties.
02. Take This Oath - Lyrics:
Abandon the safety of mindless following
Abandon what holds us captive to suffering
Pierce the blinders, behold
The path that leads before you
Let us forsake - forsake all the things
That lead us to our demise
Open your eyes
See the divine
Open your eyes
See the
Destruction of innocence
Watch it breathe it's last
Open your eyes (behold the path before you)
See the divine (forsake our demise)
Open your eyes (behold the path before you)
See the
Abandon the safety of mindless following
To the grave we take this oath
To leave this world behind
Hear the words of the voice
That lives inside
Break free, this is your time
Break free
To the grave
Take this oath.
03. When Darkness Falls - Lyrics:
As you walk
The path of least resistance
Is it that simple
As you claim it to be
Cut out
Your tongue
Your eyes
Your lies
They do deceive you
Your tongue
Your eyes
Your lies
They do deceive you
I stand firm in my solidarity
The path I walk (the path I walk)
I walk in with my own resolve
When darkness falls (when darkness falls)
We are reborn
A dream since the fall of man
We are reborn
But the lives
Are not yet depleted
We are the whole
Save us of all
With not just words
Let resolution be our voice
I stand firm in my solidarity
The path I walk (the path I walk)
I walk in with my own resolve
When darkness falls (when darkness falls)
We are reborn
A dream since the fall of man
We are reborn
We are the remnant
We the remnant will save us of all
We are the faithful
We the faithful will save us of all
Save us of all
When darkness falls (when darkness falls)
We are reborn
A dream since the fall of man
We are reborn
When darkness falls (when darkness falls)
We are reborn
A dream since the fall fo man
We are reborn.
04. Rose Of Sharyn - Lyrics:
Numb and broken, here I stand alone
Wondering what were the last words I said to you
Hoping, praying that I'll find a way to turn back time
Can I turn back time?
What would I give to behold
The smile, the face of love?
You never left me
The rising sun will always speak your name
Numb and broken, here I stand alone
Wondering what were the last words I said to you
It won't be long, we'll meet again
What would I give to behold
The smile, the face of love?
You never left me
The rising sun will always speak your name
It won't be long, we'll meet again
Your memory is never passing
It won't be long, we'll meet again
My love for you is everlasting
I mourn for those who never knew you
It won't be long, we'll meet again
Your memory is never passing
It won't be long, we'll meet again
My love for you is everlasting.
05. Inhale - Instrumental ♫
06. Breathe Life - Lyrics:
And it begins anew
The hatred of mankind
As it seeks to kill that which lives inside
Now we are dying
Dying the slowest death
Held down by bonds that bind us
We breathe our final breath
And it begins anew
The burning we endure
As we seek the strength
Strength to break the bonds
Now we are dying
Dying the slowest death
No more condemnation
We fight for our final breath
Breathe life for you are not alone
Breathe life inside your heart of stone
From dust you were born
And to the ashes you return
And to the ashes you return
Break the bonds
Break the bonds
Breathe life for you are not alone
Breathe life inside your heart of stone
Breathe life inside your heart of stone.
07. The End Of Heartache - Lyrics:
(Seek me, call me, I'll be waiting)
(Seek me, call me, I'll be waiting)
This distance
This disillusion
I cling to memories
While falling
Sleep brings release
And the hope of a new day
Waking the misery
Of being without you
Surrender I give in
Another moment is another eternity
(Seek me) for comfort
(Call me) for solace
(I'll be waiting)
For the end of my broken heart
(Seek me) completion
(Call me) I'll be waiting
(I'll be waiting)
For the end of my broken heart
You know me
You know me all to well
My only desire
To bridge our division
In sorrow
I speak your name
And my voice mirrors my torment
(Seek me) for comfort
(Call me) for solace
(I'll be waiting)
For the end of my broken heart
Am I breathing?
My strength fails me
Your picture
A bitter memory
For comfort
For solace
(Seek me) for comfort
(Call me) for solace
(I'll be waiting)
For the end of my broken heart.
08. Declaration - Lyrics:
We will not return to the countless mistakes of the past
I will not relive the failures of the man I once was
Only through dedication will I destroy all preconception
No longer will I let myself be truly satisfied with the standard
We will not return to the countless mistakes of the past
Only through dedication will I destroy all preconception
Let this be
Be the day
Day of my
My declaration
Let this be the day of my declaration
Join me
Walk with me
Shatter the bonds that tie us
To what we strive to never be
Join me
Walk with me.
09. World Ablaze - Lyrics:
Can you feel it?
The expectancy of our deepest desires
In one moment, in one second
Watch it all burn
You and I will stand as one
You and I will be transformed
This is the promise, this is the gift
We hold this truth
Shed the weight of the world
The burden has been lifted
Let it all fall
Set this world ablaze
We alone remain
Don't fear what awaits
We alone remain
You and I will stand as one
You and I will be transformed
Shed the weight of the world
The burden has been lifted
Let it all fall
Let it all fall
Set this world ablaze
We alone remain
Don't fear what awaits
We alone remain
Let the skies turn black, let the infection burn
This is the new beginning, embrace eternity
Let it all fall
Set this world ablaze.
10. And Embers Rise - Instrumental ♫
11. Wasted Sacrifice - Lyrics:
Trading life for life
It all must fall
It must end with us
It must end with me
Insinuations of what might be
Fight through deprivation
There will be no sleep
Heed my cry
Because of greed and hatred
To dust we return
They will see the strength in our numbers
Only then will the self-righteous learn
Insinuations of what might be
To the masses, we mean nothing
But it starts in the hearts of the few
Witness the birth of a people
Unite, Renew
There is no forever, just today
Don't let your sacrifice waste away
Through change and purity, turn the shadows to light
Buried beneath the ashes is a passion for life
There is no forever, just today
Don't let your sacrifice waste away
Let there be no more of this bloodshed
Heed my cry
There is no forever, just today
Don't let your sacrifice waste away.
12. Hope Is... - Lyrics:
This is our moment
Will you stand with me?
Hope is not lost
Hope is not lost
Let the strength of your words
Be the spark that ignites the flame
Proclaim your freedom
Give voice to your liberation
This is my confession
Mark these words, we will rise
Weep no more
We will prevail
Grieve no more
We will prevail
Revoke the needless way of affliction
Revoke and abandon
We are the authors, finishers of our faith
We are the solution
This is my confession
Mark these words, we will rise
Weep no more
We will prevail
Grieve no more
We will prevail
Hope is
Hope is not lost
Weep no more
We will prevail
Grieve no more
We will prevail
This is our moment
Will you stand with me?
Hope is not lost
Hope is not lost.
I will bid farewell, sever the ties
This is all I am, this is all that's left
Turn from deceit, the love of self is death
Deliverance is given to you
I will bid farewell
Sever the ties
Now your heart beats black with deception, you have been forsaken
Leave behind (I will) all reminders of you
I will bid farewell
To all lies

Sever the ties
Searching, always searching
Hoping for a change
I will never be satisfied
I will now bid farewell
I will bid farewell
To all lies
I will bid farewell
Sever the ties.
