1.
Cosmic Flare 05:05
In dark clouds I wander on Frozen in the air The voices of the chosen The trails of cosmic flare My mind is a vessel The memories of the ocean Iridescent moonlight The blood in her hair Emerge into the valley The sun begins to rise The light behind the abbey I ride on
2.
An imitation of yourself Into the stone your name is carved With scars that hide the pain within Your face is tortured eyes are dim I know you’re there The broken words with which you speak Are like the ashes in the wind You ride a burning carousel I know you saw them live through hell I know you will forget my name I feel know no guilt I feel no shame Just know the angels on my side I'll fight with honour, fight with pride
3.
Reigns End 06:24
The cities burning They're at the gates The wheels they're turning Watch the iron rise The fists are thumping On the wooden door It's time to realise All reigns end Could it end like this? Walls come crashing down The servants turning Eyes of betrayal Once hand of God Now iron fist It's time to realise All reigns must end From the ropes they swing Hands raise the crown Red glow in the sky Cold mist descends I hear the soldiers cry Tell every city It's time to realise All reigns must end
4.
Scum River 04:40
Out of my mind, I love to lose Feel at home among the drugs and booze At the waters edge I've seen myself, float away Scum River, wash me away Out of pocket, so drunk and poor Feel the dirt, with a frozen claw In the mud-lined banks, I seen their faces Sinking down Into the water, and under the tracks, I know i'm blinded, but I can't relax I need the shelter, of lazy living Scum River, wash me away
5.
The bodies burning The devil cry's her name A glow on the hillside You bow your head in shame It's only justice To keep us sane So stoke it higher, and point the blame Dragged from the mountains Into the courts of death It can't suicide I swear I heard her breath The charred remains The teeth likes pearls in the ash And who lays claim to this? The hand of death they kiss It's only justice To keep us sane So stoke it higher And feel the pain
6.
Set deep in the oceans, cliffs so high The iron rising, through mud and bone Ancient and dying, we live for the throne The Island of Hate, the eye of the storm You realise too late, it's Death at the helm Surrendered to earth, waves crash and roll You lay on the stone, the axe comes down In the thicket of thorns, your blood is drawn The rain pours down, pilgrims and plague Your monasteries, are burning down A cloud of red, a sinking crown
7.
Walk through a hall of mirrors Smoke and dust, in your eyes Catch a glimpse of your enemy, and you know it looks just like me Darkness, my friend Paranoia - is this the end? Followed through a twisting maze Lost forever, in Psychedelic Haze In the hallways, of your mind Echoes of a, long forgotten crime Kept awake by, voices in your head Do you wish it had been me instead? The mirrors crash around your head In broken shards you stand alone You know it had to take its toll Across broken shards you start to crawl
