Another Day Will Dawn
05:36

In the mist of morning
What bleak thoughts are running
In the darkness of your mind
Your face sculpted of stone
A mask to hide the suffering
Of the darkness of your life
How did your life come down to this
Perhaps in oblivion lies bliss
Too tired to take another breath
You see no way out but death
There is no forgiveness
There is no compassion
In the darkness of your mind
You can find no purpose
You can find no meaning
To the darkness of your life
How did your life come down to this
Perhaps in oblivion lies bliss
Blade in hand your course is set
You see no way out but death
But if you stay your hand a while
Perhaps this pain you can survive
And find the strength to carry on
Another day will dawn

The Demagogue

Inside the palace of deception
In a bone white oval room
Spreading hatred and confusion
You plot the course of mankind's doom
The twisted words of unbelievers
Can't dim your greatness in our eyes
But when you're taken from your throne
We see the madness in your lies
From the top of your tall tower
You tell us what we wish to hear
For the prize of fame and power
There is no price you hold too dear
The twisted words of unbelievers
Can't dim your greatness in our eyes
But when you're taken from your throne
We see the madness in your lies

Face of God
07:30
|
|

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
How can you bear witness to this pain
And still believe?
How can this world be a work of love
You are deceived
And the face of god
Is the face of man
And the plagues that our Lord sent us
Are but crimes of man
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made.
How could He give up His only son
For this cursed earth?
How could one man's death absolve us all
Of our sins?
And the face of god
Is the face of man
And the plagues that our Lord sent us
Are but crimes of man

Bring Me the Fire
05:21
|
|

Crawl on your knees to me and
Taste of my flesh
Taste of my blood as well dear
Come on be my guest
We will be as one this night love
Have no fear
You shall receive my gift now
The second coming's near
Bring me the fire
Of your burning passion
Bring me your blood and tears
For my satisfaction
Bring me to the gates of heaven
Bring me the key
Bring me your soul to serve
For all eternity
I am the savior of
Your forbidden dreams
I am the lover
The lustful seraphim
I can show you things you never
Saw before
Submit and I shall give you
Everything and more
In the fire of our love
Our bodies melt as one
My lips a searing brand
On the curve of your neck
Your skin so delicate
Burns to my touch
Together we shall drown
In a sea of flames

As Life Fades
05:47
|
|
||
A dying man lies weak, surrounded
By a mournful congregation
Hand in hand, they wait upon
To witness his last breath
As your life now fades away
So many things still left to say
To those of us who have to stay
And must face another day
As your life now fades away
A dying man, full of regrets
Unable to face the truth
Of the final obliteration
Of his soul from this world
How many days went by wasted
How many years in misery?
And now you lie by love surrounded
Surrounded yet alone
As your life now fades away
So many things still left to say
To those of us who have to stay
And must face another day
And must face another day
A dying man, full of pain
Lacks the strength to speak again
Words unsaid, tears unshed
Weighing down his heart
Now the time has come to part
From this shell your soul depart
Flesh to earth, bones to dust
Memories to rust
As your life now fades away
So many things still left to say
To those of us who have to stay
And must face another day

Too Late
06:54
|
|
||
We are lost, our time has passed
We've given up on life
In our hearts the burning shame
A cruel twisting knife
What was once a fertile land
A graveyard soon to be
For carelessness, apathy
And pure selfish greed
The ending came
So suddenly
I can't believe
We're drifting through the ashes of
This dying world
It seems to me
We could've done more
Darkness falls on broken earth
As the bell ceases its chime
In our childlike innocence
We thought we still had time
But it's too late
Too late!
Hollow words from hollow hearts
Those promises lie broken
The truth always left unheard
No braver words were spoken
All our time we squandered by
In revelry and toil
Now we gaze on what is left
Dust instead of soil
The ending came
So suddenly
I can't believe
We're drifting through the ashes of
This dying world
It seems to me
We could've done more
Darkness falls on broken earth
As the bell ceases its chime
In our childlike innocence
We thought we still had time
But it's too late
Too late!
