The life I’m owed I’m told is gone They bought and sold me out How could They take And break my faith Then sink To think This time we wouldn’t blink Secret messages No one heard No one saw No one paid For what was done to me (If you ever take a stand and walk out) Now you want Want it all Takes what’s left And give it away for free (If you'd ever take my hand I'd show you what we've done) You distort my pain and deem it a pleasure The mess that we’ve become Now i’ve lost everything Even with the war at my side (I will never give up the war at my side) A lie So bold That unity would hold I know how others see me A big Mistake The side you take Deserved Or earned It’s all burned And now no one’s safe Secret messages You distort my pain and take great pleasure No one heard, no one heard, no one heard Well, you’ll hear me now No one heard Well you’ll hear Yeah you’ll hear Well you’ll hear me now One and done One and damage done

The Storm 03:05
Treasure the charm (hunt me down) That you have wished upon (Hunt me down) Through golden grace (Swallowed down) Now the storm is coming , coming Swinging the blade (In rusted crown) Of every lie you laid (And where you’ll drown) In golden graves (buried deep) Cause the storm is coming, coming We stand, you fall Shift in the tide (hunted down) Leaves no where left to hide (on broken ground) A new embrace (a new divide) And the calm is coming, coming We stand, you fall

What do they know of grit and taming fire with lily white hands and eyes with no desire to see this life as more than waiting on another how can they know where power lies? You hear the scream of metal that’s as good as your name the spinning wheels you swear that they all say the same and in the heat that most would jump just to escape you stay to see the devil without a shape So here I am with twisted fingers forming a prayer from steel and smoke my message it hangs in the air my burning lungs may never sing but are my witness to what no human words can ever express My word my bind pin pulled, straight line my task, clear mind won’t fall down now Lower your head they say go where you’re led don’t stray I put my faith in this feeling of freedom each day mine I’ll shut my eyes under silent skies I’ll shut my eyes Guilty and pure wander blind believing we are blessed and in our bodies confined are numb to consequence in what we trust as our guide we find our final test as salt or seed is how we’ll rest Can it be wrong to listen to the calm in your head? To value work for which we know we were meant? To not sit back and wait on hollow bonds to be done or given bread from the barrel of a gun? My word always my bind with my pin pulled kick the straight line it’s in my task I’m of a clear mind off like a shot pushed hard as she got they’ll hear me coming Lower your head they say go where you’re led don’t stray I put my faith in this feeling of freedom each day mine I’ll shut my eyes under silent skies I’ll shut my eyes under silent skies I’ll shut my eyes

Nameless 03:53
moonlight holds the spark awake, not alone omens in shade rage and give way a call from the rocks the art of the lost burn bright soothing envy ease of the prey give up the ghost go gentle, feel no loss pulled by a call from the rocks defy for art and the cost burn bright for all that was bled nameless lucky few who bear the pale, true soul the madness of hope how brief, how bright
