Illusionist 03:48
01 Illusionist I faced the world before me, the fingers of the breeze against my face My heart beating slower and slower, as the peace turned into war Trying to make sense of a hopeless existence, the world I knew broken open before my eyes Where do I go from here? Nothing feels real, this pain is tearing my sanity in two Free me from the burden of a life unfulfilled, cut these ties and let me go Set me adrift, set my heart free, complete nothingness falls before me Through the eyes of lifeless ghosts I scream Remember those echoed voices, in the back of your mind FUCK! Tearing the mask that covers my reality, this is the lie that calls my name Faces in the water pull me into the lies, and on crashing waves we close our eyes I open my eyes and see what lies before me, this world is nothing more than a distant memory I’m having the hardest time accepting this reality An illusion fabricated by the cruellest of hearts Let the love that is felt breathe air in your lungs Take my sanity and fear, and send me to peace Grab me by my soul and bring me to my feet I hope my footsteps match your heartbeat I hope my footsteps match your heartbeat

02 Lost In Fearful Emptiness (LIFE) We are the ones stuck while life moves on with or without us Two steps behind never catching up So turn the light off in your eyes These broken hands are finding it so very hard to carry the weight of a life gone wrong So leave me here to float in the deepest part of darkness Heal my wounds with your words Lift my heart and make me whole and I will heal the deepest wounds within your soul A love that a hopeless heart will always feel Always will be real Being lost in this fearful emptiness for far too long The weight of our minds is the rock that anchors us The rising tide brings comfort but will send us to the depths We’re sinking deeper and deeper without a breath in our lungs I can see the panic in your eyes I can feel the fear within your heart We are here forever never gone we live our lives never alone These days will not last and the hardest times are still to come But lift up your head and open your heart. The scars on your heart will always run deep Never shy away from the stars in the sky that spell your name They are always there for you when you feel like giving up You just need to keep on breathing In hope of one day finding the truth about this world Wake up and know that love will always guide you home Love will always guide you home You just need to keep on breathing In hope of one day finding the truth about this world Wake up and know that love will always guide you home Love will always guide you home

03 Everything We Are Everything before me is ablaze in my eyes Watching with intent as the world I knew ceases to be All that’s left of my life is a whispered echo Failure in the eyes of the casting gaze my heart is fading, weary As I exhale the disappointment My eyes a filled with the truth about the life we lead this is everything we are The hollow feeling brought out amidst the darkness that has fallen over me This is everything we are We blindly accept the reality of the world in which we’re presented Forced to exist in a world lacking courage and heart I am just a man lacking direction a ghost wandering blank Further and further into the abyss I stare my body lies lifeless As everything I love tears away I’m a dead man here I’ve got nothing to fear my lungs fill with fire as the world ceases to be These lacerations upon my heart tell the tale of things to come The blackened skies casting down on defeat This is everything we are How can one so strong feel such weakness as the night burns bright the darkness feels calm Grant me the serenity within help me end this plague felt from the inside I wasn’t told of this life I wasn’t warned of the life that I would lead An existence filled with greed a time where hope never was I have witnessed true terror I have seen the end of the world We conquer one fear for next in hope of release from the torment Our minds forever in defeat our hearts forever lost in the depths Lying broken and cold waiting for the non exist Praying for the time to come and release all that was promised Lost in this fear my own personal solitude hearing the words slip silently from the dead below This is everything we are

The Void 05:10
04 The Void This is the call of the void Break free of these shackles of existence painless moments await at the end of your life Give up on the sorrow give up on the fear take my hand we can begin I’m out in the wasteland of our lost hopes Trying to regain this love for life which has been absent all these years So close this void within my chest Keep the poison in my veins don’t let the heartless eyes fool you I’m alone in this war I’m drowning Amongst the breeze I can hear it The faint words that echo in the back of my mind Telling me to let go tears fall from my eyes as the realization hits Isolated beyond this world I’m lost The feeling is always present a long life of impending failure my head held low as the torrent of emotion pass over can’t you see it in my eyes? Can’t you hear it in the words? I have seen the void it has enveloped my heart Take my hand Break free of these shackles of existence painless moments await at the end of your life Give up on the sorrow give up on the fear take my hand we can begin My eyes are open and I see this world for what it really is where has the colour gone? I’m falling away from everything I’ve ever known this is the call of the void The feeling I’ve felt lost for I believe the black wolf is before me dragging me into this endless void fingers bleeding From fear and loss of self call of the void darkest horizons ahead these poisoned veins spill A pain rarely seen but deeply felt

Such Promise 05:20
05 Such Promise I don’t think I’ve ever been so confused with the meaning of my existence Who I am and who I am meant to be My mind and my heart forever locked in a never ending conflict Brought on by the fear of never being who I was brought up to be I have spent my life face down in the dirt afraid to become the man my mother sees Sleeping away these feelings running from the pain of existence Trying to escape the hollow feeling in my chest Brought on by the poison thoughts which plague my mind and taint my heart Too many times in this life I’ve been let down Burn the memory of this loss in my mind forever Cracks begin to show in a once unbreakable soul I’ll never live another day with hope I will lay down and not fight back Breathless lungs until the very end I’m done and this is the end Don’t cry for me don’t take the weight of this heavy heart Don’t see the pain don’t feel the fear The wind is flowing through me and I feel forever at peace I see the world as a broken man I had such promise
