experiment
we changed, rebuilt
but now its gone awry
our conduit;
the pathway in has failed
bring him back
its time to make
some changes to his mind
compelled to serve
he'll come to us again
it seems ages ago
that we found you among the stars
gave you new life for the cause
we trusted, sent
you back to earth
a second chance at life
the cruelty shown
deserves a reprimand
your powers just
an oversight
"a lesson learned", i lied
correct our error,
just a slight of hand
now the tables have turned
and your focus will shift inside
live with the pain in your mind
feast on your misery
you reap what you have sown
you will eat your words
"now im a god, you know"
suffer in bondage
as my window in
to see what makes a man alive
all of your pain amplified

Cynic's Anxiety

10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2.....
dreaming of a better time
my imagination wanders to the skies
what awaits us in the stars
is it utopia in space?
[[or just another chance
to be indentured]]
beyond the fantasy
nature of man, revealed
to this fate ive been resigned
export our greed across the corners of the galaxy
we'll find
no long awaited brand new start
their chokehold wont just dissapear
[[they'll send the skint to be their
coal canaries]]
even in fantasy
cynics anxiety
(10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2.....)
as we hurtle forward
as the rockets climb
(10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2.....)
progress marches on
only widens the divide
can we exist as equals
im losing faith in humankind
can we exist as equals
or will the old ways never die
theyll never die
theyll never
die

Unbreakable

a life of struggle
engineered to hold you down
"luck just doesnt
come around"
this cant be freedom
by circumstance we're bound
no compromise we'll
end the crown
dont believe what youve been told
it doesnt
have to be this way
raise your voice
dont fight your righteous anger
have your say
on
we will fight
for the power to
live free!
the rank
and file
rising up
to make our dream become alive!
together
we unite!
stoke the flames of change
now raging, burning bright!
together we're unbreakable
in the darkness
know that you are not alone
with your brothers
find your home
stronger together
arm in arm we will dethrone
fists of steel crush
hearts of stone
dont believe what youve been told
it doesnt
have to be this way
raise your voice
dont fight your righteous anger
have your say
on
we will fight
for the power to
live free!
the rank
and file
rising up
to make our dream become alive!
together
we unite!
stoke the flames of change
now raging, burning bright!
together we're unbreakable

In Flames

rampaging worlds away, a whisper
a glimpse of things to come in time
a chance of desolation
but as the time passed, growing nearer
it wont sink in, we need to hide
but theres a trepidation
no reason now to stoke their fear
we'll wait and see
i saw the blight on the horizon
but panic festers in the gloom
it just seemed right to calm them
i undersold, a soothing lie told
it caused a vector site to bloom
the ones who trust me, condemned
and now reality is here
oh god what have i done
truth of its severity
preceeds the lie i sold
all the suffering i could have spared
multiplied manifold
now a harbinger of death
i only wanted everyone to be okay
now im the one to blame
for a world in flames
final chorus layered bg vox:
i said itd all be fine
i said itd pass in time
i didnt know id have such sway
i thought theyd come around
thought we'd be safe and sound
i didnt know it'd be this way
