Lyrics by Kyle Andrew Music by Michael Louis And it's not so easy Killing time All your years of promise All Swept behind Like this phantom feeling This endless garden Where you tend to fantasy Vines writhing up from deep inside you Your deepest shattered dreams The pieces scattered all throughout This blackened wake, this malady And the fault, it lingers listless under broken fingers Left high and dry upon the altar These screaming effigies This age, torn and blown asunder Like ashes to the sea Left high and dry upon the altar These screaming effigies This age, torn and blown asunder Like ashes to the sea Like ashes to the sea A million children All crying out They grieve this moment This age of doubt This day of emptiness Smothered hearts it has eclipsed Giving time, and giving ground For no man, no thing, none of this Blackened Barricades Give way to ghost dance death parades Left high and dry upon the altar These screaming effigies This age, torn and blown asunder Like ashes to the sea Left high and dry upon the altar These screaming effigies This age, torn and blown asunder Like ashes to the sea Left high and dry upon the altar Like this phantom feeling Left high and dry upon the altar These screaming effigies This age, torn and blown asunder Like ashes to the sea Left high and dry upon the altar These screaming effigies This age, torn and blown asunder Like ashes to the sea

Lyrics by Kyle Andrew Music by Kyle Andrew and Michael Louis There's nothing left Inside ascendancy A faith bereft Cities smolder to the solvent seas The black flame burns out As lovers fall Song of solemn surrender Our curtain call Keep dreaming Alas keep dreaming A world more seeming then you'll find Hold us closer, ever closer Dance unto the end of days Kiss your last breath Descend in prophecy There Is no death The only end belongs to fantasy Promise unreal Have you savored every star and scar lit Moment to this very end Keep dreaming alas keep dreaming For what is now, forever be Hold us closer, ever closer Dance unto the end of days Unto the end of days Unto the end of days Unto the end of days

Citadel 04:22
Lyrics by Kyle Andrew Music by Michael Louis Where I tread In wild abandon This mortal wreck with wringing hands Ever out there Chasing shadows in the dark Dancing prayers into the night Here I rise Ether destined Cascaded in this wake Somewhere out there Where I am going will find me This moonlit city of my dreams Palaces I find Beyond time, forever out there This world is mine At the steps of Citadel, I remember Wild before me The moth aligns to light myway Eye of mind, light divine Now ascending On the wings my moonlit love Into the neon night we ride Palaces I find Beyond time, forever out there This world is mine At the steps of Citadel, I awaken into Cities of my kind Here inside my spirit starts to soar This world of mine Citadel, Of Neon Embers, I Remember

Deadlight 06:33
Lyrics by Kyle Andrew Music by Kyle Andrew and Michael Louis This is the final stand You've reached the ledge The Pagan promise etched in visions on your soul There's only half a chance To reach salvation, all i will Under neon halos, she'd this mortal coil Point a fixed stare Unto the blackest star Now Ascension Becomes what you are Come alive You've reached the other side Enter darkness here tonight Undead arise And say your goodbyes to the light Enter darkness here tonight Dance within the deadlight Your fingers pricked An ancient prose upon your lips Blood now rushing from your pen unto the page The great work begins That which we sow, that which we spin Conjured will ignites, the midnight flowers bloom Unholy passion Under the blackest star Insurrection Tears your world apart Come alive You've reached the other side Enter darkness here tonight Undead arise And say your goodbyes to the light Enter dark was here tonight Dance within the deadlight Unholy passion Under the blackest star Insurrection Becomes what you are Come alive You've reached the other side Enter darkness here tonight Undead arise And say your goodbyes to the light Enter dark was here tonight Dance within the deadlight

Justine 04:41 video
Lyrics by Kyle Andrew Music by Michael Louis She sees it coming Like Isis through the rain Sunken smile on Hardened cheeks She swears the world will know her name And on the median There she stands between the streets Watching cars and their solution Relishing how easy it could be Like before Another word of doubt Like her heart Another candle burning out Like before another word of doubt Like her heart Another candle burning out She takes her final footsteps Dreading where the sidewalk ends With no place left to venture And nowhere to call home Justine knows little Justice And could give a damn for peace Knows the foolish risk inherent Of feigning treaty to appease Little girl, unbridled libertine Sister of consequence She swears she hears it all the same Like before Another word of doubt Like her heart Another candle burning out Like before Another word of doubt Like her heart Another candle burning out Like before Another word of doubt Like her heart Another candle burning out Like before Another word of doubt Like her heart Another candle burning out Candle burning out

Lyrics by Kyle Andrew Music by Michael Louis Awaken from my slumber into a sunken dream I'm shaking yet familiar, all is never what it seems This strange remembrance lingers Untied, beckoning The time is now at hand make my escape, my reckoning This barren desert sigh Where earthbound angels yearn to die Their wings, on leaves, they lie Like sparrows fallen from the sky One night, detonation One night, all i need One night, to cast away This scarlet fire, burning life out of me And it feels like thunder And it talks like rain Inside this fallen tower Here where terror breeds Align the hourglass Climb through fallen trees Unconquered branches beckon Through the pathways of the night Enter here you find yourself Immortal spirit born in flight One night, detonation One night, beckoning This velvet terror ground This edge of ever Haunting me The hour at which you stand You've sifted years to understand Traversed these desert sands The answer is now within your hands And it feels like thunder Infernal desolation Velvet fire surrounding me Burning in my bones and through my veins This hunger Haunting me One night

Paradime 04:42
Lyrics by Kyle Andrew Music by Michael Louis Over the wire and under the gun Morning ride into the Midnight Sun We gather here to demonstrate The man of machine, our final update Sight unseen, terror lies Vivisect and sanctify Everything and everyone Here and now have come undone Everything and everyone Over the wire, under the gun Under fire the last parade This cull designed as Masquerade It's a dance, this endless pantomime The fiber-optic paradigm Jesus wept in perfect time Like the shadow of the spider cast over the fly Everything and everyone Here and now have come undone Everything and everyone Over the wire, under the gun Everything and everyone Here and now have come undone Everything and everyone Over the wire, under the gun This poison age is sinking fast A barren feeling seems to last Deep in the fiber-optic air You're hardwired savior waits there Everything and everyone Here and now have come undone Everything and everyone Over the wire, under the gun Everything and everyone Here and now have come undone Everything and everyone Over the wire, under the gun Over the wire, under the gun

Lyrics and music by Michael Louis I feel so apocalyptic, A Hell’s holiday greeting card Poster child for the dark ecliptic Sentry of the mascara-scarred Walk backwards to the void Sidestep what I’ve destroyed Take down my dictation Perfect your imitation Heed my self-amputation There will be no refutation Let us pray in reverse Bring to life my curse Let’s blood-feed on our own And make the planet worse Witch hunts veil bigotry Revere my empathy Let us drive in reverse And together we’ll crash this hearse Adhere to my sanctimony Be now so pious, so phony Give lip service to a cause Get high on their applause, so high Let us pray in reverse Bring to life my curse Let’s blood-feed on our own And make the planet worse Witch hunts veil bigotry Revere my empathy Let us drive in reverse And together we’ll crash this hearse And together we’ll crash! Walk backwards to the void Sidestep what I’ve destroyed Let us pray in reverse Bring to life my curse Let’s blood-feed on our own And make the planet worse Witch hunts veil bigotry Revere my empathy! Let us drive in reverse And together we’ll crash!
