Deceivers

Through the waves of lies were all desensitized. This collective apathy is what turns the tide, opens your eyes. We all run and hide. You'll never survive. This fate is only yours to choose, you cannot afford to be consumed. Cross the line, the path is faded. I cast you out, leaving you forsaken.
All through my life I've always bared through pain and strife, leading me to search for light. This darkened path reveals itself to be the last. When will I ever get past?
This web of lies deceiving my eyes, shall no longer consume my precious time. Day by day your life's cascading. Look in the mirror and tell me you're not changing. Lies that were told, promises you broke, intended to destroy our weary souls. Captivate the mind, while they steal our very lives.
All through my life I've always bared through pain and strife, leading me to search for light. This darkened path reveals itself to be the last. When will I ever get past?
Time after time we're growing tired of asking why. Just look me in the eyes and tell me why. All we ever wanted was truth, but that's not what we got from you. You just sit on your fake throne, casting all these stones. I know you've waited for this day, but we refuse to play your games. Just keep them for yourself.
All through my life I've always bared through pain and strife, leading me to search for light. This darkened path reveals itself to be the last. when will I ever get past?
Inside my mind, the truth I will find. This is my time. The tide will subside.
My life I will not sacrifice.
Changing all the rules. Close in for the kill. Divide and conquering. Our lives are not for sale.

Against the wall with head in hands, did we ever stand a chance? Tear us down, break our wills, we won't falter. Waging this war on both hemispheres.
Demonstration of devastation. Provocation and intimidation.
This is a mind I'll never know. Malevolent souls can be so cold. Dictate all our lives, indoctrinating all our minds. They revel in their cruel design. Emancipate from this fools paradigm. Relinquish your throne inside our hearts, we all now know.
Sinking in this quicksand, now it's time to make our stand. Out of touch with who we are. Tell me how we allowed it to get this far?
Preparation for annihilation. Declaration of our liberation.
This is a mind I'll never know. Malevolent souls can be so cold. Dictate all our lives, indoctrinating all our minds. They revel in their cruel design. Emancipate from this false paradigm. Relinquish your throne inside our hearts we all now know.
We all now know.
Rise up, retaliate. Take away all of their means to inflict all this pain. No longer stand alone in the shadows. Diabolical thieves, exposed and destroyed.
Failing to see what lies underneath. Despondency has rendered me forlorn, can't you see? The well of your deception has run dry. Deliver us from slavery and watch as we fly.
Well of your deception has run dry. Despondency has rendered me a subservient dichotomy. Failing to see what lies underneath. Deliver us from slavery, release your hold and set me free.
Relinquish your throne inside our hearts, we all now know.

Adaptation

Turning the page in my life. I can't dwell on what's left here to define. Retreat to a place of my design. Building up the walls inside my mind.
Every waking second feeling all alone. Purge the memories of times long
past as shadows laugh and push you towards the edge of your minds limits.
Rising up from this self made grave I am. Defying those who have sought my end. No matter what it takes this time I'll survive.
I'm adapting to change in this dark age. I refuse to remain captive in this cage. Compelled to resist I am no slave. Now observe the injustice as we are betrayed.
Change your superficial jaded state of mind. Shallow, callous and ignorant to this affliction. Distance myself from depths of despair I have known.
Rising up from this self made grave, I am. Defying those who have sought my end. No matter what it takes I'll survive. Turn away from this life displaced, I am towards the light of a better day. Discard the pain inside yourself and fly.
Rising up from this self made grave, I am. Defying those who have sought my end. No matter what it takes I'll survive. Turn away from this life displaced, I am towards the light of a better day. No matter what it takes this time I'll survive.

Odyssey

All these dreams, what do they all mean to me? A world without boundaries? Your life flashes by in the blink of an eye and I'll see you on the other side of this temporal tide, from which you cannot hide.
We're reborn. We were shells of former selves, empty inside. We're all drifting through time, no meaning to life. We must reform to dissolve the boundaries limiting all of our lives. Can't you see what is coming? Change your ways or be forgotten.
As we ascend, leaving this old form behind. As we cross this great divide, differences are set aside. This refusal to simply use our eyes, in turn will leave us blind. Without open minds we won't realize the potential that lies inside.
We're reborn. We were shells of former selves, empty inside. We're all drifting through time, no meaning to life. We must reform and transform this cruel reality that we've designed. Can't you see what is coming? Change your ways or be forgotten.
Time is of the essence it's our last chance to change the course of our lives. Rewrite all our endings, this humbling testament. Free from this maelstrom of insanity, left to choose our own paths. Ride this storm to the ending. Transcend the structure of time.
Finding our way through days of distress. Prepared for whatever comes. Embrace our humanity. The dawn of a new age is upon us, this uncertainty driving us to go on. Swirling in this time stream, now I know.
All these dreams, they have shown me what we will see. I refuse to believe. Can't believe that the end is coming, beckoning us all. Stand on the edge and stare into the void, this life as we know it destroyed. In this disastrous time, we search for a sign. Singularity's coming, just stand right by my side.
