Breathe in silence listen to nothing close your eyes and awake  what a beautiful place I can see that there's nothing to fear here  can't discover a trace of anything living  no more longing for someone to embrace  step into the swamp feel the cold on my skin  looking deep into the water that's where the nightmare begins  I see the fear in their dead eyes  except the ones that are shut  and then the fear it creeps into me into me into me into me into me  like a knife hanging over my head when my hands are all tied and my shouting is empty need to find a way out of here, how to cut it down Help, please, is somebody there? anybody? can you hear me? they're dead! Tonight I'm dreaming of death  feel so scared I can hardly take another breath  There's a stream of blood trickling down my path Can't hide just face the fear and let it pass Can't run when I'm dreaming of death can't see the good in anyone when I'm dreaming of death can't sleep when I'm dreaming of death  I want to die when I'm dreaming of death Looking through my eyes I can see the morning light But it's far away and hard to say if I'll ever reach it I can't feel anything but the desire to give up Every hour that passes is hard Harder than the last glimpse of emptiness you could ever find in here By myself, for myself, leave myself alone A dream becomes a reality when the effects control your mind It's hard to want to live just to die Next time I sleep I'll return to that same place

The Spell of Dark Water lyrics The cold sinks into your bones, your broken feet Like an anchor, deep into the sea It's where you want to be Skin tightens as you grasp for breath Your muscles bind engulfed in depths see what you can find you're running out of time The spell of the dark water is bereft of guilt and shame your only vocation the art of finding an end without the means Look out into an infinite darkness look up into the infinite light at a thousand feet she'll be waiting for you in the frozen ice Dive into the ocean, into the sea Swimming with the dolphins and the walrus will put your mind at ease Reach out your hand a faint glow in the distance her form appearing you're tired your heart is pumping slow feelings gone no longer breathing pushing can't go on give it up you're done your body feels so weak drifting out of consciousness and floating away

An Outsider 09:44
My silence is all I have good will is all I create  bright faces appear in my mind dark encounters occur in my life Realize  that everything  we create  is damaging  the world  imagining  peace of mind  a fantasy  for a dream, a dream What did you see fly under the there is a plan but no longer for it flew away a long time ago  now I'm lost taking it slow I'm all alone with nowhere to be there is a sight with nothing to see I travel past many empty places now I'm lost, devastated Know if you speak out against them now just wait to disappear  obey them instead  surrender all you have  stripped of will, losing integrity  and now there's nothing left  I know I know and now I don't see  anything or anybody else who's left behind Realize  that everything  we create  is damaging  envisioning  peace of mind  a fantasy  for a dream a dream  is all I have  my silence  is all I need  what did you see  in the trees  flew away  long time ago  stripped of will  nothing left there's nothing left

Paralyzed 10:29
Something pushing down on me an eerie way of saying please remove  your presence from my humble abode Locked inside a stream of consciousness   I do believe the powerlessness is a force  a force beyond my control Cannot travel far  frozen to the floor  want to be awake  pushing just to shake Flash of red light  breaking through the skin the skin of my eyes  breathing like a beast  steaming breath blowing through  yellow hardened teeth Feel the ground beneath my feet  before this shattered earth I see light  shining at the end  stuck inside myself  waiting for a movement  Try to crawl away  wish that you could see me touch me on my face  wish that I could speak to say  I am awake  I am alive  I need some help from somebody  to rid me of this fear  grabbing for my face  to tear apart my eyes falling off the edge only to understand  I'm paralyzed  Liaison for disclosure  please lord is this over  liaison for disclosure please god is this done Bring me back alone  bring me home, another way for  sign another line for money  another time, to beat the rush  leave it all behind your bed  and doze away  back into that empty place Holding my breath  floating to the surface  it's still so far away  cannot reach a perpetual distance  tied under the sheets  hands held down underneath me  strive to make a sound Sound is lost in the dead space of my mind extent of the mind  the picture of paralyzed
6.
Eyes burn fire like torches  the only picture that I can still see  an hour could feel like a lifetime  when it's spent in your company a journey so slowly corroding  worn on my face this time I'll see it through  until it's gone gone  Gone with the fire  there is a creeper here and it's me  I'll strip your will for my desire  I feel the punishment constantly  I'm so tired of the excrement feeding me  I'll be gone worshiping Finding direction  in a maze with so many dead ends  like seeing for the first time I understand  but nothing makes sense  there I was in the clearing  envisioning the end  look forward to pass look backwards to fall now that I'm gone

P.R.E.Y. 05:10
P ound the stakes into the ground  R eap the treasure you have found    E at the flesh and cook the bone  Y ell and scream and fight for more  Today we will fill the cup but tomorrow we could starve  I'll sacrifice my first born as an offering to the stars P rey upon the weakest ones  R un from the mighty beasts  E xcite the spirit of the forest  Y ield to the vile high priest Jage Tiere immer größte Schnapp Verbrecher und die schöne Damen sehen mich als Held Komm für dich zum fressen denn du bist mein Fraß P urge every house in town  R epent for your sins astound  E vict the people from their homes Y ears will pass us by I'll prey upon you  commit atrocities in vain  there is no refuge  I'll bring you everlasting pain  My senses tell me  a sacrifice must be made no shame in dying  and never afraid

Down in the dungeon  lighting a fire  burning a hole in walls to get away Risking it all to violate taking a chance to strip away the lines See the limits of your pride discover the wrath of the ride into the unknown Step by step stone by stone  to build a glorious throne to feed your lust Lust for knowledge, want for justice need for freedom, a scapegoat for my crimes See the limits of your pride  discover the wrath of the ride  step beyond the red line  take us all for a ride Down to the mercy of your leaders the powerful have so much to lose  The mystery of where they'll take us and how much they will steal on the way to the top of a fantasy  a broken system a false sense of joy material holiday to waste away Paradise Paradise  for you but not for me  Paradise Paradise  too far away to see  Paradise Paradise  a sweet sweet mystery  Paradise Paradise  For you but not for me Rise above  the silent thug  break the law  kill them all  travel far  follow stars  create an end  holiday to waste away Into the unknown corners of the world  mysterious hands will reach out from the map Risking it all to violate taking a chance to strip away the lines Can't control a mystery like you can't control the future or the past Only hope that's left for us is sitting in the hands of the blind
