Clone 04:47
Broken By this life before me, endlessly draining Awoken And my eyes are straining, my will is waning Heartbeat Mechanical and cold, unchanging pulsing Repeat The sound of clockwork, endlessly ticking When we surrender our lives to live by these routine motions We never move mountains Unending We’re forever expending. Never ascending I Realise time won’t heal all this pain It just wears at the stone I Won’t tread the worn path, a link in the chain My road is overgrown I will not be a Clone Resist, resist Clench these fingers into a fist Ignore the utterance that ignorance is bliss And Go Release, Release What potential was in me Not a link in the chains, up from my knees And Go Resist, resist Release, release Serene, serene I will not be a clone

Crumbling, Pillars Atlas can’t endeavour Stand on the shoulders of Prometheus Gifts of fire, never repaid New thought, Withers No Support in Mirrors Desperately poke at the embers Plead flames rekindle anew Sieve through the ashes Seek fruit from the branches Pray for drops from the fountain The Titans are dead Storm and Shiver Mindless musing whisper Renewed in perseverance Presenting vision to tired eyes Endless, River Ouroborus Slither Leap from the shoulders of giants Illuminating fire, Casts shadows anew Sieve through the ashes Seek fruit from the branches Pray for drops from the fountain The Titans are dead

On mother Nature’s throat we squeeze With the sound of falling trees Toxic, smoke halo Our poison fills the seas We assume we can consume Drill deep into the veins Drink the blood from the soil Civilise what remains What Remains? Harvest nature voraciously The price of gluttony Dig into the bottomless pit To find its empty, Its empty! Now consequence is beating on the door We’ve always taken and not returned Now consequence is beating on the door Theres nothing left Devour the Earth, Devour the Earth Now I see only greed Caters for selfish need Believe that your fellow man Will burn and destroy all he can BURN

Mortal Coil 04:08
Run through the forest Being hunted to death Take a look inside before you draw last breath Lost in the canyons As you wander alone Before you lose your mind how content is this soul? Wade through the waters Try to search for purpose All these burdens of life leave mortal shell in distress Savour this heart Before you’re dust and bones (Because) Time will make a slave Of us all This Coil It Shears It’s Finite Through It All Lifeblood Will run dry Blood lost in torment Turned to wine Threads of silk Life, Death entwined Nourish this soul Cherish this time Don’t live this life in sorrow Pain is a crutch For a weak mind Don’t be consumed In Death’s sickly vine As body frays Redefine Don’t live this life in sorrow… (Or) Forever Be Lost

Whimpers in the darkness You cling to me, the problems endless Expecting boulders, but only pebbles Its relentless, I need catharsis Leeches, pulling me down Bleeding life away Hatred, slowly distilled Carrying your burdens, self to blame Burn them all away No more compassion for your lamenting hungers No longer the pillar For the world on your shoulders Burn them all away So weak it sickens me Rise up take control Through purging there is transcendence Stand up, strong, alone Integrity grows from independence

A mind, at war with reality A bloody standstill between what’s right and what you think right should be Pluck out, the eyes To spite your senses Hand on the shoulder to be led through the darkness Accept this Or let failure Define Washout Bleach out this clouded mind Accept this Or let failure define (You) Release this Or be buried with these relics in the dirt Let go this failure Not ever your own saviour Thrown down, cast out Die of thirst from mindful drought What you hold dear Impaled on your own spear Swansong for one The flock won’t listen anymore… Will you adapt or stay clung to the remnants Embittered, Astray… I swear what tasted pure Will be the ashes in your mouth Will you worship your Idols? In prideful disgust Play the blindfolded martyr As it crumbles down to dust Denial brings blindness Acceptance gives clarity Open your eyes Embrace changing tides Or drown on the fruitless pursuit Live a lie Cheap disguise Stubbornness is the knife on which you die Will you worship your Idols? In prideful disgust Play the blindfolded martyr As it crumbles down to dust
