You feel the lies
submerging the truth,
the emptiness inside,
not knowing what to do.
You are lost
in the kingdom of disbelief
No way out, no place to hide
among pain and grief.
There's just death, despair and apathy,
no love, no home, no hope, only futility.
Your world is one of blackened dreams.
Chaos reigns, nothing is what it seems.
Your world is one of darkened nights,
but still your lonesome heart keeps burning bright.
So what the hell will you do?
Which path are you gonna chose?
Waste your life in mass mediocracy?
Walking down the straight trail of greed?
Running from the ghosts of the past
towards an all too deceiving sun,
which proves to be just another billboard,
selling all your dreams one by one?
One by one.
What the fuck will you do
with the time given to you?
Do you wanna spend your hours waiting
for the praised life less frustrating?
Will you be crawling through the desert, on all fours?
Silently awaiting your run-down doom,
while praying for heavy rain
to make your dreams sprout and bloom?
Don't drown, start to swim!
Wake up and you will start to win
Freedom, strength,
a life of your own!
Always remember:
You wont have to do this all alone!

This album hits like a ton of bricks. I can't say how long it's been since a band reached me like this, but I can't get enough. The driving rhythm, the ghostly floating leads, the haunting and direct lyrics, the desperation in her voice... Powerful. Jaycee
