A soul pulled from the fires, A husk carved out of stone the heart is filled with boiling blood, By anger, I was born I have set foot on the horrid grounds where, mere mortals could not stand I have gazed upon things visuals went right through my hands And I learned that there is nothing absolute besides nothing Buried without coffin, Born serving as worms feed Just another broken man there is nothing else beneath The gallows are my beds, the blade my go to sleep And in between the laughter I only hear the ones who weep I hear the voices screaming of how they hate the likes of me. I destroy the planets, I am the end of worlds No one shall defend me as I live a life untold I am domination, an horrible disease In the arms of death I will find my long awaited peace To master the art of anger, is to slit hatred's throat, and still have blood that boils With 9 shapes I created the destruction of my heart Unending attempts and failures is what scattered all the parts The unwanted truth is, you are that what I've said I know despite of all I've said you'll feast upon the dead heads will roll down the abyss that I call home. heads will roll down the flames where I was born, into nothing.

Old hearts 03:34
I am destruction My mind distorting, a pressure on me as if my very soul tries to flee Do I deserve all this? Is it really all me? When hatred reached peak I began to understand the ancient language written on my heart and in my hands It speaks in vile tongues and haunts me in my sleep within the void that's life, are no answers that I seek When they gathered for the feast, I killed them all they lay crushed beneath the statues of themselves My mind distorting, a pressure on me, as if my very soul tries to flee Do I deserve all this? Is it really all me? From the moment I dragged you out of the ruin unveiled by the sun I became one myself you stripped the sacred pride from the one who made you whole you've burned the paradise you've always dreamed of. Years later I'm just as cold, like the dead beneath me And still I, I'm like a god to the filthy cowards

They, they're screaming my name as they drown Damned souls forget their pain when they pull you down One day I'll end it all, I'll turn the water red I'll hold my breath and I'll swim against the stream straight into Hell And if you ignore the story of the one who drank death, you won't receive your savior's hand And when that day comes, I know I'll meet her once again floating, staring at me with those redeeming eyes And it will pierce my heart but it will not break my spirit My tears will join the others but I will remain alive and swim onward away from her sight, away from her eyes Damned is the creator of the river considered saving on this hope abandoned land Waves of desire rage forth by the winds from below the nine You are what drives me to reach the frozen heart, and melt away the ice that keeps it from beating I am forged to drain the black river and keep it away from us I am forged to drain the black river I roam the earth telling the story of the one who drank death but did not die I roam the earth telling the story of how I survived

You stare at the wall, the wall is painted, with all the problems you can't solve And everyday you have to face them, it is a world you can't overthrow You want to take a step out of life, into a better place where dreaming is alright, where you can be accepted and can resist the knife and when you wake, you wake up in the same shit It's in your head and when you wake, you wake up in the same shit Making you blind Embraced by the thorns of your dreams, they make you bleed your life away Beautiful eyes, lure into shadows it is a world you can't control Again You want to take a step out of life, into a better place where dreaming is alright, where you can be accepted and can resist the knife You want to take a step out of life, but it's not a dream, it's suicide You're searching for answers in the bottles of wine, where you will be accompanied by the old fashioned knife

Snowfox 02:57
Born in a town called Death Covered in an everlasting cold This place is cursed but a true sight to behold, such a sight to behold Keep running ahead, the warmth of the sun is fading and there is a chance that you won't notice it at all Snowfox, quick on your feet don't let life's shadow overtake you don't look back don't you ever look back Keep running ahead, the warmth of the sun is fading There is a chance that you won't notice Your home lies in ruin, your legacy dead, a motherless child bathing in ashes No trace of the tears that have been shed With hope still burning within his frozen body, with the line beneath a red sky And the black mass as his only guidance, on bleeding feet he kept running A motherless child bathing in ashes, no trace of the tears that have been shed, we where all born dead no trace of the tears that have been shed, we are all born dead Lost but not forgotten An endless cycle Fight for something Something that will be consumed by the suns Life is death Death is fiction
