2.	Purification Through Self-Sacrifice 03:28	lyrics
I know where things went wrong Suffocating like a bird with no song Held to close To hide my pain Now you’re gone And life is caught in the rain Lonely and loveless I feel left out My mind is consumed Without a doubt No one to care if I lived or I died Couldn’t speak of the pain inside Watching others Living their lives. Smiling faces But I’m empty inside Face myself Looking in the mirror One by one My problems disappear Hold me close Heal my pain Struggling To find a way No one that cared if I lived or I died Contemplating suicide The thoughts go through my head And It’s all my fault again Ready to go Into the void Into the sky Out of our reach Out of our minds Out of our time The thoughts go through my head And It’s all my fault again A desperation shell of myself Alienating My soul to dwell Everyone has disappeared Deserted by my will to live It's all my fault agian
3.	Evil Lurks 03:13	lyrics
From the depths of within Evil lurks while we live in sin From the devil we came to the devil we return to in the end Take my soul from my last breath Lay me down and put me to rest Dressed in black wrapped in a cloak Take my hand and lead me home Drift into the unknown Evil consumes my soul Unholy divinity Open my eyes and just Lead me down Towards the path And take me from this Sailing over the lake of fire Death is my only desire Lusting for this feeling Close my eyes and stop my breathing Unholy divinity Open my eyes and just Lead me down Towards the path And take me from this reality From the devil we came to the devil we return to in the end
4.	What's Worse? 04:51	lyrics
Pitch black night first time we met Contemplating your silhouette As time slips away Sentenced to feel lesser versions of what was real Lie and wait till the end but what’s left of me is broken What’s worse than this pain What’s the difference between being in love and being insane It’s my cross to bear So I carry the guilt Time moves so slow as I lose my will Think about the life we never got to live A love we never got to give Kids we’ll never have How I could’ve been the perfect man But im reduced to memories again I’ll play my part So long and farewell Until we meet again Until we meet again Quiet and out of the way Even if it kills me Quiet and out of the way Even if it kills me everyday Miserable and a wreck I will think of the time we spent I will try to forget All the games you played with my head Years spent wasting time on My only regret Wishing I had left Before you broke me again Miserable and a wreck I will think of the time we spent I will try to forget All the games you played with my head Years spent wasting my time My only regret Wishing I had left Before you broke me again It's my cross to bare So I carry the guilt

6.	Enter The Ether 02:59	lyrics
Reincarnated curse Crucified by my pain Turn to dust when I'm Shackled in flames Enter the Ether lay me down in a grave Chains on the casket throw me away Soaked in the rain Hear the earth call my name Pull my head underwater So I drown in the lake But I'm drownin in shame Grasping out for the blade Gasping out from the strain Bleeding out from my veins Now I'm out of this place Flirting with the other side And bow in disgrace I am shattered Lashing out with a rage That I found in a place That the light couldn't touch Death is hours away Time will erase Memories fade away Life is a game I never agreed to play
7.	Coming Down 05:27	lyrics
Wake into a drugged haze Grind my teeth but still Can’t feel my face Why can’t I seem to find Something to replace Vision that’s blurred Stops and occurs as I don't Know where I am I stumble and stare Into a glare As I hear Like whispers in distant ears I’m right here now Can’t you hear me By your side I will not ever leave Paranoia Has set in Looking over My shoulder again Evil eyes Plot my demise But I’m to blame As I’m so ashamed Reaching out Do you still need me By your side You will not ever leave me Coming down Ripped through the ground Coming down Searching for an escape Mind in a vacillating state Living in a mental disease With no contrition For what I’ve done to me
