lyrics

Day after day we see the world change around us
Everyone searches for the answers,
Everyone pretends to know the truth.
They don't. They don't know.

The issues inside every creation,
The beauty and the horror were made by man's hand
A legacy left by the relic of time is no more.

Our body moves at the sound of fear and destruction
We play a symphony for the dead to celebrate the end
The orchestra plays for the last one standing
An old man still listening patiently
Waiting for a sign that never shows up
We drown ourselves in every melody
Everything feels like a déjà vu,
Everything seems so wrong when we're awake
and barely right when we're asleep.

Hope is six feet under.
Nothing lives above.

We get on our knees, embrace the King's ring
Craving for the crown, staring at the throne but can't ever reach it
The old man, still waiting, never satisfied.
The old man, still waiting, still waiting...
The mystery around him will never be revealed.

There's no need to apprehend the truth
You can't prevent Chaos, you can't make it better.

The melody will stop, the curtain will drop.

Raw, expressive, and achieves a remarkable balance between melody and sharp hardcore edge. It presents a type of duality that makes euphony and cacophony sound beautiful together, like rice and beans (a complete protein) :) Love the sound, this split demonstrates impressive talent! Kenny McGalem
