Conviction

History pours out of me
This life now known as a memory
Consequence now frailty
My mortality reduced to misery
Speak your judgement now
Bring me down
Without conscience you hand me shame
Find your facts in time
Without trial
Punishment without a sin
When did you decide my fate
I endure your hate
Accusations spoken forth
Without remorse
Your lack of empathy
Reveals my destiny
With bitter and scathing tongue
You declare my false conviction
Answers lie.
Endings are not defined
The truth will not be found
My freedom bound
I cannot sustain
This false blame
Out of the grey I will rise
In the cells below
Where dark grows
Absolution will clear my name
Answers lie
Endings are not defined
The truth will not be found
My freedom bound
Answers lie.
Endings are not defined
The truth will not be found
My freedom bound
This is the graveyard of my life
Where I confess all my mistakes
Am I the failure that you hoped for
You convict me of my flaws

Banished
06:06
|

Bound by wrist and harrowed stare
Shackled by my own despair
Chained with stricken memories
Of my failures that I've reaped
Ostracised by friend and foe
Demonised and dragged below
Past is buried, left behind
Leaving legacies defined
No way home
Lost in doubt
Pain sets in
Hope turns south
Judged by those who speak of lies
Forced unto my own demise
Plagued by thoughts of your deceit
Carried burdens of defeat
Will is falling
Fortune fleeting
Spirit broken
Cast aside
False visions haunt me in my exile
I see the rotting earth collapse
A haunting omen of betrayal
I embrace the coming black
No way home
Lost in doubt
Pain sets in
Hope turns south
Final breath comes slow
I defy the light
Staring through the void
Journey comes to pass
No way home
Lost in doubt
Pain sets in
Hope turns south

Diseased

Exposed bones
Leaking blackened fluids
A rabid fever
Burning through sickened flesh
This illness is terminal
A monstrous virulent epidemic
Teeth spilling from rotting gums
Wounds spreading disease
Swollen red skin
Nails cracked and bleeding
Vomiting rancid blood and bile
Succumb to asphyxiation
You'll find me in the dark
Hiding from the light
What have I become
I am your dying son
I saw you make your grave
I will not lose this day
What is there to be done
To live on
I cannot help endure
There is no hope of cure
Could I make you realise
Your demise

Haunted Oceans
07:30
|
|

I ignored all your calls for help
And survived, but I did not win
I lost your trust
I thought we were stronger and
Could see all the signs
But I was too blind, and now you're gone
I'm drowning in a sea of guilt
Ashamed of everything I've built
My thoughts are laden with regret
Absolve this deceit to help forget
I should be more careful
When I'm faced with lies
I would rather blame you
Than listen to cries
We are divided by truths
Just hear me out
My apology
My denial
Was my ignorance
Who else to blame
If not myself
I'm drowning in a sea of guilt
Ashamed of everything I've built
My thoughts are laden with regret
Absolve this deceit to help forget

The Fatal Shore
09:11
|
|
||
This frozen ground
This barren land
This shadowed realm
The fatal shore
I am disposed
I am alone
I am exposed
Outcast from home
Fate
Leads me to this prison
Abandoned hope
So long ago
Oppressed
As I embrace the grave
And waste away
My
Courage forsaken
And now
Now I am broken
At last
These weary hands
These ragged limbs
These feeble cries
The soul is torn
Realise this life cannot exist
All of my legacies are dead
I walk through trails of blood and ash
Towards the end of this descent
Fate
Brings me to this prison
Abandoned hope
So long ago
Oppressed
As I embrace the grave
And waste away
My
Courage forsaken
Now I am broken
At last
