How can I follow the lead when I'm the one in front
I always draw the first blood
Teeth as sharp as nails, I'll rip the skin from bone
All kings have their throne
How can I fall to feet when I stay standing tall
Broken and beaten, but living
Refuse to kiss the ring that shimmers like the sun
Nose to the wind, the night comes
How can I follow the lead when I'm the one in front
I always take the first bite
Teeth as sharp as nails, I'll rip the skin from bone
Wolf blood all I know
Fear is in the mind, hate is in the heart
Blood is on the tongue, malice fills the lungs
For much too long, I have known the worst defeat
But I will never be the black sheep
Wolf Pack

Sunset bleeding into night
Conscience festers without light
No more beauty no more peace, a soul on fire growing weak
The burden of days is slowly
Drawing closer to its end
Life's been building me up
And I'm just counting down the days left
The call to the grave I know that song
So calm, so soft, so cold
The sun sets on the limbs
A thousand ropes depict a graveyard
I never wanted to say this
But it's been a long time coming
Everyones out to get you, motherfucker
The call to the grave
I see my breath escape
As sight begins to strain
Let them forget my name
Sweet release, take my hand
I'm coming home

Frost
05:00

Bring the enduring chill
Freeze my heart
And my conscious mind
Can a flower bloom
Without a season's rain
I blossom from your gaze alone so
I'll bite the frost
That reminds me of you
Endure the fate
Of an endless headache
The winds have stirred
While the branches wither
Life no longer lingers here
Encase me in ice
I want to feel the cold come
I want to hear the Earth turn
Preserve the body's warmth
For centuries to come
I will lie here beneath the snow
We've strayed from the path
That we could not fathom
Our weathered souls like tongues to ice
You have blossomed
A testament
To the cold's unforgiving clench
White drains from my eyes
No touch left in my fingers
Punished by the Earth's resolve
Encase me in ice
I want to feel the cold come
Carry my soul away
If the Earth can permit the frost
I question why I fought
So hard against it
Never accept the taste
Of a frozen death
Surround my limbs
With your warm embrace
Negate the feeling
Of this nothingness
I will never be moved
My spine awakens
I've become a void
Straighten my limbs
My blood frozen
I've never felt so empty
I've never felt so cold
Carry my soul away

Castaway

This time I won't be hanging around
This time I won't
Be there when you're falling down
I'm not the one
Not the one to blame
You won't have me
You made your bed now lie in shame
Castaway
All those things
That you had to say
Fall in place
Life goes slow at the end of days
Full of hate
Built on a past you can't erase
Turn the page
I won't watch your fall from grace
This time I won't be hanging around
This time I won't
Be there when you hit the ground
Try to save face
You can't bury your mistakes
Forget your name
You made your bed now lie in shame
Face the facts
You're just dead weight on my back
Drop the act
You're content to feed on scraps
Just goes to show
This was your track long ago
So don't you brag
Take the leap and fade to black
Castaway
All those things
That you had to say
Fall in place
Life goes slow at the end of days
Full of hate
Built on a past you can't erase
Turn the page
I won't watch your fall from grace

Rising Tide
01:10

Welcome worn out
Always present always breathing
Down the back of my neck
The bottle, the doubt
The regret in the morning then it all starts again
Chewed up, spit out
You always walk around with your foot in your mouth
From iron to rust
Left out to the cold and it only gets worse because
You fucked everything up
We faced a rising tide
How could we let that slide
This weight lifts off my chest
But can you say the same for you
You don't know how it feels
To be broken down by your shit
I was not the first in line
And I am probably not the last

The Dead of Winter

The dead of winter
The angel of death has swept across the world
And with it came the rotting ashen snow
The terror at night, a bright and burning light
From fire comes the winter of the damned
A nuclear war
A natural force
A consequence like never felt before
The father a wolf
The mother a whore
The essence of earth bleeds forever more
A stagnant air cast over the world
Left a barren wasteland of painted gray
Oppressive silence
A funeral dirge
Left a barren wasteland by global purge

Loathe

I lie in the bed I dug for myself
I'm calling it quits
And ringing the bell
Boarding the ferry
And crossing the Styx
With nothing to show I'll just hit the bricks
Never have I felt so alone in life
I have stooped so low
Never thought this shit would get the best of me
When I was on my own
I'm breaking away from my sanity
I am helpless
There is no stopping me
I am losing touch with everything I knew
I thought I knew you

Beyond the Wall of Sleep

I. The Hierophant (instrumental)
II. The Star
I often wonder if the vast masses of man
Ever stop to pause, reflect on the significance of dreams
And the obscure world which they belog
A world that's unlike yours or mine
Our souls will live through many lives
And while we sleep our stars will collide
III. The Tower
To kill a certain thing that shines and shakes and laughs
In order to reach it he would soar through abysses of emptiness
Tonight I go as a nemesis bearing just and blazingly
Cataclysmic vengeance burning every obstacle in my way
Resplendent aura of my brother of light
Wrought a vengeance that would shake the spheres
Escaping at last, escaping forever
Pale eyes of the dreamer
IV. The Hermit
I know the end is coming soon
There's nothing left, now I know the truth
My death knell rings, come home to the ground
The angels sing, but I can't hear a sound
Without hope, I am
V. The World
Do you suggest the star would kill
The world that granted it purpose
Do you suggest the death of gods
Or one who parades as such
Now Joseph will die
Relaxed his lifeless eyes
Do you suggest the Sun? The Earth?
The Tower? The Hermit? the Star? The World?
So I reject my humanity
Too much an animal, Too little a man
Something vicious and primordial
A demon beyond time you'll die by my hand
Tonight I go as a nemesis
To kill all those lesser than me
I had such plans for this world
Touch the darkness within me
Reach out
Touch the darkness within me
Usher the dark
