Silence 02:36
At first, they said That if we couldn’t agree We should stop talking They sent us back home Thinking we were wrong That we were alone They told us our vision Our ambitions were foolish And built on delusions They told us we were dreaming That we needed to wake up When the daylight reflected on our skin We looked around to see we’re not alone We’re not alone You keep on lying to hold us down We won’t commit to silence You don’t get to choose for us We’re not, we’re not alone I won’t commit to silence

Liars 03:02
Liars You’re all the same You build up walls Of lies you can’t disclaim And as they close in You’ll need to face it Liars nothing else You’ll never fill up the empty shells you are Liars nothing else You’ll never know just who you really are You drift alone In your own fantasy Why does it always have to be this way You’re piling up too many stories to keep the truth at bay You’ve made it up so it would sound so interesting You brought us down so you could look so outstanding You thought we’d believe it all, it’s sickening You went too far, no one is listening Liars nothing else You’ll never fill up the empty shells you are Liars nothing else You’ll never know just who you really are You drift alone In your own fantasy You think you’re fooling everyone you know That we all stare and listen ready to follow You’re running alone through the maze you’ve built Soon you will realise you’re helpless and lost in it Is this who you are? Lie after lie The days go by Is this really the only way for you to survive We see through your game We’ll forget your name You’ll be left alone With nothing else but shame Tare down these walls make me forget Liars nothing else You’ll never fill up the empty shells you are Liars nothing else You’ll never know just who you really are Tare down these walls make me forget

Is there something I am missing You're all running in the same direction Trying to hunt like a pack of wolves Forgetting the ghosts that haunt you Do you really think this is family Hatred and anger as your only bond Bragging your strength in numbers And ending up alone You're the king of the hill Standing tall over ten feet of garbage and waste Lord of an empire of traitors and liars and cheaters and beggars Your realm has no strenght at all Only rumours and complaints What a shame for a king Is there something I am missing You're all screaming like preachers on a mission Treating like saints some stupid cowards Only living by fashion and fiction Let me rise, oh let me rise Over nothing at all Let me rise, oh let me rise To be the king of nothing I want to be the king of nothing Throwing your words like daggers Mocking everyone and everything you know Thinking you are as wise But no one cares and no one will ever do Your feeble eyes have widened At the sound of the expectable You're the king of the hill Standing tall over ten feet of garbage and waste Lord of an empire of traitors and liars and cheaters and beggars Your realm has no strenght at all Only rumours and complaints What a shame for a king Let me rise Let me rise Over nothing at all Let me rise, oh let me rise To be the king of nothing I want to be the king of nothing What am I hoping What am I dreaming of Why did I join your endless race to be alone What is it this feeling What is it that I got myself into I ended up craving fame Is this who I am? Rise over nothing at all, To be the king of nothing I want to be the king of nothing

Every word you spoke And every thought you had Build up the pressure in my lungs Up to the breaking point Time will soon be running out I’ve had enough of your senseless shit Why can’t you stop talking You think you’re speaking the truth But you know only lies Made up your judgement I’ve heard your screaming You’re never listening Every line you wrote And every lie you told They keep on feeding all the selfish ignorants like you You think you’re preaching You’re misinforming You’re misleading You’re the light that guides those who stray right down an helpless path Burn, you foolish sheppard Or learn, you senseless coward I have a feeling that you’ll never get a hold of it Maybe somehow you know but you just can’t admit I made a promise to myself but I just can’t commit I swore I’d lay low but I’m so sick of it Why can’t you stop talking You think you’re speaking the truth But you know only lies Made up your judgement I’ve heard your screaming You’re never listening I’ve heard your screaming You’re never listening Why can’t you stop talking You know only lies Burn, you foolish sheppard Or learn, you senseless coward I have a feeling that you’ll never get a hold of it Maybe somehow you know but you just can’t admit I made a promise to myself but I just can’t commit I swore I’d lay low but I’m so sick of it Why you spread only lies

Behind our smile hides the doubt Founded in judging the world around We have no choice but to blend in To keep on walking, to keep on faking To keep on faking Before madness reaches you Where’s the savior? We kept praying for Where’s the savior? That’ll turn everything around Where’s the savior you might ask, are we still looking? I’m still searching Behind our smile hides need To disagree, to scream out loud Cause we don’t belong If only someone would let us free We’d be the change We’d be the change The walls will crumble A breath of fresh air Fills my lungs Have I found what we’re looking for? Where’s the savior? We kept praying for Where’s the savior? That’ll turn everything around Where’s the savior you might ask, are we still looking? I’m done searching The walls will crumble To let me build them again I’m ready to explode, to set free I’ll rise above and I’ll stand tall We’ll rise above and we’ll stand tall I’ll rise above and I’ll stand tall And i’ll give the world a chance I’ll rise above and I’ll stand tall We’ll rise above and we’ll stand tall The world is ours This world is ours

Immortal 02:42
I took a stand to look back on the life I had Only to see devastation, desolation and pain I don’t want to resuscitate I’ve had enough of this selfish world I feel guilty for all I’ve seen Oh do not get me wrong I’ve had enough of your fighting and looting and wars I was hoping and begging for something more I’ll set free my eyes And rest my head of its worries and guilt I heard rumors of promises And I heard questions, but never any answers But I hear your greater calling Asking me to live again So I made myself a promise I will keep I will die tonight And wake up to a new tomorrow I’ll let my heart blind my eyes And walk alone down a righteous path I’ll let my heart heal my head And I will do my best I don’t want to resuscitate I’ve had enough of this selfish world I feel guilty for all I’ve seen So let’s give ourselves time For one last fight Oh, can you feel the irony of a war for peace I’m not immortal I’m not dying to live again

I’m unsinkable Now let the water rise I won’t drown His anchor has been out at sea for years the deep blue has been a home more than a trap It has seen all of his smiles and all of his tears There’s nowhere a broken compass cannot lead I’m unsinkable I am unsinkable Now let the water rise I won’t drown With only the stars to guide him home He let the ship drift on his own He let it drift away He felt no need to come back home He’s lost at sea He felt no need to come back home No! With time, the sky turned grey The swell got deeper and the water colder His ship to the winds was a prey And seeing in the distance The rays of sun he was hoping for He knew the days would get better I’m unsinkable I am unsinkable Now let the water rise No, I won’t drown

Swarm 04:23
It might be a plague But it won’t be our death We’ll see the sun behind their legions I can’t let this happen I won’t let them through to you We’ll make it I swear We’ll see the sun again I’ll fight them all I’ll fight them all I won’t let them through to you I’ll fight them all I won’t let them through to you If you stay behind me We’re stronger than they are If you stay behind me We’ll show them who we are We’ll fight with fire We’ll let them burn We’ll fight with fire We’ll let them burn Burn Burn We’ll let them burn They’ll let you go when you’ve nothing left to give But they’ll keep coming back for more Run, run until your lungs collapse But they’ll find you no matter where you are I’ll slay them by millions And I won’t dare to leave one alive They have no reason I can’t scare them and hope they’ll hide You can’t just ignore them all And walk away They’ll feed on every feeling Let me show them my way They were so scared I’d be something They tried to scare me away But lights are on me

You’ll find me chasing stars My heavy breath and my heart that pounds so loud Won’t keep me from looking further than our grounds If somewhere in the stars lies the key to your heart I’ll make sure I... I’ll make sure I get a hold of it. Behold, as I try in every way I can To make sure you always wear a smile I am ready to face anything If I could know it’d make you happy My heavy breath and my heart that pounds so loud Won’t keep me from looking further than our grounds If somewhere in the stars lies the key to your heart I’ll make sure get a hold of it. And if my voice could break your silence You’d hear me screaming out, you’d hear me And if my voice could break your silence You’d hear me screaming out, you’d hear me If only you could feel the strength that lies in me and see The fire you’ve lit inside will burn as long as you want it to Take all the time you need I swear I’ll wait for you Take all the time you need I swear I’ll love you You’ll find me chasing stars My heavy breath and my heart that pounds so loud Won’t keep me from looking further than our grounds If somewhere in the stars lies the key to your heart I’ll find my way I swear I’d take you anywhere You’ll find me chasing stars I’m only waiting for a sign
