This is the last chance you have to take the easy way out from disaster This door's been open for far too long it must be slammed shut and forgotten So don’t act so surprised We’ve had it coming a while Nothing can stop our predetermined fate Stay and you’ll see everything as it slips away I tried to reach for anything which would catch our fall 10 thousand bodies lie at my feet I’ve been unleashing and I’ve destroyed All of our time, and our tragedies I have depicted this outcome for our lives Don’t act so surprised We’ve had it coming a while Nothing can stop our predetermined fate Stay and you’ll see everything as it slips away I tried to reach for anything which would catch our fall Lies have broken all that we’ve built Take your liar's grin deceiver’s glance I’ve had far too many broken dreams I will become more now that you’re gone I will become more now that you’re gone Can’t you see the fire in my eyes It’s been burning out now for years Nothing can rekindle this flame so hold your tears Stay and you’ll see everything as it slips away I tried to reach for anything which would catch our fall As everything slips away

The end is drawing nearer we are faced with our impending fate We have dealt this hand to ourselves and now we must suffer in spite The waters will soon rise and they will consume the weak Darkness has fallen upon us swallowing all our hope Beneath its shelter lies our guilt which reflects our incompetence In time our purity will be depleted and we will have no excuses We have always foreseen this fate but yet we waited and now it’s far too late The waters will soon rise and they will consume the weak Darkness has fallen upon us swallowing all our hope Beneath its shelter lies our guilt which reflects our incompetence The floods will consume us leaving us weeping leaving us devastated The fires will then complete our fate charring our destinies turning our souls to dust The waters will soon rise and they will consume the weak Darkness has fallen upon us swallowing all our hope Beneath its shelter lies our guilt which reflects our incompetence Darkness has fallen and all we can do is grieve We are all drowning in a sea of guilt This is inevitable

When tragedy strikes the victims all turn towards you and you lie you all lie Whenever innocent blood falls our name slips from your lips Delivering a subtle blow from such quivering hands Through time your accusations have no substance They provide a motive while we stand dumbfounded You preach to the wounded We will no longer tolerate your shaded depiction Will we forever be your scapegoats the ones who take the blame Whenever answers are nowhere to be found your finger falls on us This redundant you walk must be getting old by now An easy answer for the simple minded but what about the rest of us We will no longer tolerate your shaded depiction Will we forever be your scapegoats the ones who take the blame Whenever answers are nowhere to be found your finger falls on us You called us heretics your telltale methods are pathetic Please tell us how much longer can this go on How much longer can you sing the same song How much longer can you sing the same song Whenever innocent blood falls our name slips from your lips We will no longer tolerate your shaded depiction Will we forever be your scapegoats the ones who take the blame Whenever answers are nowhere to be found your finger falls on us Will we forever be your scapegoats the ones who take the blame Whenever answers are Whenever answers are nowhere to be found Nowhere to be found

Eulogy 04:25
This is for anyone who thinks that I’ve become something I am not For you have no idea who I ever was To think that I used to get upset when I would burn another bridge I have destroyed all of my worthless relationships Wait I’m facing this opposition I’ll rise up and make this declaration to you You’re going to miss me when I’m gone soon you will see how I was desperate I wanted to show you something more than this redundant hopeless redundancy So take one good look into these dead eyes for the next time they will pass you It will be as if they hadn’t even noticed you I’ll close my eyes before I start to feel sorry Then I’ll close your eyes and make you feel sorry You’re going to miss me when I’m gone soon you will see how I was desperate I wanted to show you something more than this redundant hopeless redundancy You will crawl back to me on your broken hands and knees You will fall before me and beg for mercy You cannot judge me for what I have become For you never knew who I was You cannot judge me for what I have become For you never knew who I was You cannot judge me for what I have become You’re going to miss me when I’m gone soon you will see how I was desperate I wanted to show you something more than this redundant hopeless redundancy When I’m gone you’ll see I was desperate I wanted to break away from this hopeless damnation When will I disappear so I can break away Break away Break away from this

I am still searching for you not a day when you don’t come to mind So innocent standing in darkness holding hands waiting for dawn The reflection of your eyes in mine left me breathless I never even saw the signs Ever since I was young I’ve dreamt of finding you I’ve never accepted how I let you be Taken silently before my eyes Days may have passed but I am still searching for you Over the years I have denied myself a sense of comfort which you gave to me I have waited for you to return but yet I still stand here waiting Ever since I was young I’ve dreamt of finding you I’ve never accepted how I let you be Taken silently before my eyes Days may have passed but I am still searching for you Taken silently before my eyes Days may have passed but I am still searching for you How long should I wait for you How long should I strive to find you When days turn to years my conscience serves its sentence Due to my lack of courage I am left standing all alone Taken silently before my eyes Days may have passed but I am still searching for you I have been left standing all alone

I was trapped barred within my consciousness Regret I ever accepted such a warm embrace Denial has taken me hostage devoured my senses and my identity I locked myself within these walls silently waiting to get out These locks on my chains their keys lay before me Why was it such a task to put these days behind me When will this ache end when will this urge subside The time has come to write the last chapter Of our lives The need to cloud my life and shade all of the darkness in it has now faded away I despised what I became obsessed with the demon’s presence These locks on my chains their keys lay before me Why was it such a task to put these days behind me When will this ache end when will this urge subside The time has come to write the last chapter Of our lives Faith has reappeared shining hope to blind my fears Reap the benefits of my now vacated slate Through time I’ll persevere In time I’ll overcome When will this ache end when will this urge subside The time has come to write the last chapter Of our lives Let’s turn the page and close the book

You’re shaking once again hunched in a familiar position Your mind races but yet you feel nothing Soon you will no longer be able to withstand This torture which you are being subjected to Say you will overcome all of the stereotypes Which you are being sold we have all been scolded Your eyes tell me another story they cry out to me with such intensity So weak your grief takes over me as I watch you slowly fade While I resented you for what you became Soon you will no longer be able to withstand This torture which you are being subjected to Say you will overcome all of the stereotypes Which you are being sold we have all been scolded If only you could see yourself through my objective eyes Maybe you would then realize the cost of their lies Soon you will no longer be able to withstand This torture which you are being subjected to Say you will overcome all of the stereotypes Which you are being sold we have all been scolded Say you will say you’ll try say that you’ll listen and decide That you will that you’ll survive Just close your subjective eyes

Tell me why Why have I brought to this sanctuary when I was desolate I fueled your hatred I’ve broken through the remains and found hope through a new light I followed it its faded shadowed guided me I believed in your fallacy of freedom I stood there as you cast your first stone Within inches of my grasp you stand there and taunt me Holding everything that I want you laugh as you taunt me I’m laughing now as your lips defecate lies and deceit secrete from every orifice I’ve seen through stained glass and witnessed things a man should not I’ve seen devastation and I’m the evidence I believed in your fallacy of freedom I stood there as you cast your first stone Within inches of my grasp you stand there and taunt me Holding everything that I want you laugh as you taunt me Then in the dark of night I woke up in a sweat You were standing over me with a blade in hand I closed my eyes and waited for the blood Within inches of my grasp you stand there and taunt me Holding everything that I want you laugh as you taunt me Slowly you laugh as you taunt me Your eyes show no signs of remorse If only I had found somewhere I belonged

Its dark and their voices rise again my heart breaks with the silence Been praying for sunlight to come and illuminate This shadowed existence which we portray Desperate I cried out for redemption Throughout my life I strived for sanctity from these perils Although I’m blind I still find all of the emptiness you left in me This broken home has reaped what its sown And has left me dying Their screams led to the consequences Which have circulated for too long and have polluted our home Later I sink to the floor lying there withered and plagued With the guilt of passing on this disease which I condone Throughout my life I strived for sanctity from these perils Although I’m blind I still find all of the emptiness you left in me This broken home has reaped what its sown And has left me dying Another morning of distress my lips are aching I see you arrive with them and they’re kicking and screaming You simply turn towards them while tightening your fist They fall silent beneath your authoritarian hand Although I’m blind I still find all of the emptiness you left in me This broken home has reaped what its sown And has left me dying You’ve all left me dying

A flash of light collapse of reason Priorities have led you astray disaster has darkened this season A sudden tragedy leads you into hostile ground Your will to live will be questioned Will you live to regret this will you just let it disappear Pray for tomorrow pray that your sun will rise Pray for a second a chance to redefine your life Trickled thick and left to pool Taillights reflect in her crimson gaze You are a hypocrite and you’re a selfish liar You only serve yourself through the pain of others Will you live to regret this will you just let it disappear Pray for tomorrow pray that your sun will rise Pray for a second a chance to redefine your life This catastrophe has unveiled your shortcomings You can beg and plead but that still wont change a thing The time for change has come Choose what you’d rather lose your family or your dignity Choose what you’d like to keep your sense of pride or your will to die Pray for tomorrow pray that your sun will rise Pray for a second a chance to redefine your life Her mortality has redeemed your empathy But the question is is she still is she still breathing Or is it already too late Is she still breathing or is it already too late Is she still breathing or is it already too late Is she still breathing
