Lyrics:
A world full of lies
Seeks to entice
A stranded path
Blazed by my hand
Looking for a place to call my own
I was the one to cast the first stone
A ruthless tyrant beckons from above
A hate burning deep inside my soul
Every day I seek ways to torment
myself to atone and repent
Building giant structures in the void
Thought forms are created and deployed
As I seek to please my tyrant and beg for caress
It laughs, I plead, all I get is more distress
I kneel, I pray, “Down on your knees you shall stay”
What more is there to do?
From this path I will not stray…
Look inside the abyss, embrace the pain
I’ve looked for a place to call my own
To grow all the black stones I have sown
A chasm opened up below my feet
I realize that I will be the seed
As I seek to dream, my tyrant strips me of my sight
It laughs, I cry, no one to tell me it’s all right
I run, I hide, awake in the middle of the night
What more is there to feel?
Under this cold veil of steel…
Forged in pain
Raised in fear
Eons of torment I seek
My blood I offer to feed
A life form lesser than mine
And claim its spark as divine
A world made of lies
Sought to entice
A blazing sun
My path undone

hermana estás haciendo nueva música que bueno, que bueno, que bueno, que bueno!!!!! sos la put4 jefa amiga, te amo... si en la música hubiera un ranking como en el tenis, no te alcanzaría el puesto 1, serías la 1, la 11 y la 14... sos el fluir de la magia, me gustaría que compartiéramos el miso idioma (entre otras cosas) para poderte expresar sin ambigüedades, con lujo y detalle lo increíble y relevante que me parece tu música, y no caer en lo típico de fans como: awesome, amazing, genial o love u, etc, etc, etc... lo nuevo suena magnífico y brutal como siempre, gracias por existir!!!
