Our existence it is inconsequential A mere drop in this ocean of time We could be washed from the face of this Earth Our history gone in the blink of an eye We are a virus that has ravaged this place We won’t stop till the death of our host The only cure to this disease we’ve created The extinction of all we know All that you’ve worked for means nothing The life you know is a fucking lie Peel back the world’s silver lining To witness the extent of the sickness inside What will you do when our monuments fall And we are left with a consuming guilt This utopia built on sand will crumble And it must be rebuilt In the end there are two possibilities That we are alone and we’ve been left here to die Or we are not alone in this world, and both are equally as terrifying They say you reap what you sow But ours are seeds of death and destruction They say you reap what you sow But ours are seeds of death and destruction Our existence it is inconsequential A mere drop in this ocean of time We could be washed from the face of this Earth Our history gone in the blink of an eye We are a virus that has ravaged this place We won’t stop till the death of our host The only cure to this disease we’ve created The extinction of all we know All that you’ve worked for means nothing The life you know is a fucking lie Peel back the world’s silver lining To witness the extent of the sickness inside There is nothing left Our lives and dreams have turned to dust There is nothing left Our lives are dust

Catalyst 03:58
Wake It’s a continuing phase It’s what you do to yourself When you’re corrupted in rest There’s no way to step Free of your own mind Because this whole twisted world Is turning you fucking blind Is this what I create? Is this locked in my own fate? Is there any message you represent? Or are you the pointless picture of hate? Is there anybody out there? Will you pull me from this nightmare? Will you pull me back from the end? Or leave me here To die all alone? There’s no way to save me Wake, its an unstoppable force, It’s what you do to yourself when you’re heading to the end There’s no way to step free of your own kind Because this twisted world Is turning you fucking blind Break these chains Shatter the bonds and be free Step out to the world Be free of this fucking disease Now is our time to rise Now is our time be released Release me To the fucking world I will be free I will be not be enslaved

You can’t protect yourself I, will hold my head above this corporate flood The masses held down by greed The emptiness of always wanting more Condemning us to always live in need Consuming all but failing to be content A condition beyond belief A system rotting from the inside out Dying to be put out of its misery False idols are as hollow as their name A face to a corrupt regime Followed by the blind But I refuse to follow their lead I stand firm The only constant in this ever changing world I am immovable Defiant in the face of your momentum I will rise When all others are forced onto their knees I will rise When all others are forced Forced to their fucking knees I refuse to be Another sheep lead to your slaughter I refuse to be Another sheep lead to your slaughter I refuse to be A statistic in your scheme I refuse to be Another cog in the machine You can’t protect You can’t protect You can’t protect yourself You can’t protect yourself You can’t fucking save yourself I will hold my head above this corporate flood The masses held down by greed The emptiness of always wanting more Much more than they could ever need Consuming all but failing to be content This condition defies belief A system rotting from the inside out Dying to be put out of its misery False idols are as hollow as their name Faces to the fucking machine Formed by the strong But upheld by the weak And like all empires before They inevitably reach their end We as a judge The masses cry out Your time has come Repent or revenge

Surface 04:48
Endlessly we've navigated this maelstrom Sailed our ships onto calmer seas My convictions return to haunt me As we are swallowed by a vengeful sea Desperation makes me claw at the surface But I know I’ll be forever be adrift Forcing me down Pulling me down into a crushing abyss I can’t endure this hell any longer To meet my end would be a welcome relief I can’t endure this hell any longer To meet my end would be a welcome relief Your eyes grow wide As your fear takes hold And I hear the sirens as they call you To your new home Your eyes grow wide As your fear takes hold Then I step back and watch As the endless teeth Rip the skin from your bones There’s no turning back now You've run aground on this reef We've marooned you alone on this island Forever damned to wallow in your grief There’s no turning back now You've run aground on this reef We've marooned you alone on this island Forever damned to wallow in your grief Your apparition Returns every night to haunt me in my sleep The memory of a beautiful nightmare Or the ghost Of a terrible dream Endlessly we've navigated this maelstrom Sailed our ships onto calmer seas My convictions return to haunt me As we are swallowed by a vengeful sea Desperation makes me claw at the surface But I know I’ll be forever be adrift Forcing me down Pulling me down into a crushing abyss I can’t endure this hell any longer To meet my end would be a welcome relief And as I slip into my endless slumber I feel the sharks come Rip the flesh from my fucking bones
