Abyss 01:09

Abstinence 05:20
It's just a matter of time 'till my mind starts tricking me It's dark outside and I'm so afraid of my own mind Pleasant times and dreams are gone Life slips through my fingers And time is not passing anymore The battle against desires is unfair, the forces of addiction will always be stronger Darkness seems deeper, while brightness fades away No! All I want now Is to finish With this life Unbearable pain Crossing my body And my mind Suffer, sorrow Agony I don't want these lies Desolation and despair Without end After the storm A brief moment of clarity Is there hope in me? I need to break free from this burden Is there a way To get out of This god damn misery? I long for an end A new beggining What is this? All this fire All this chaos Why does she seems so afraid of me? Feel my fury The disgrace, this hell Surrounding me Oh my memories All I want now Is to finish With your life Unberable pain Crossing your body And your mind

Aberration 04:56
Searching for a key I realize there is no way And now I stand Here in this hell without hope! Numbed by regret, it's my own fault, Look what I've done! My hands are trembling, her body fell and now she's gone All the pain that I left behind Is coming after me. I beg for your forgiveness, I've become an aberration. All the pain that I left behind Is coming after me I beg for your forgiveness I've become an aberration Now I face my test Now I search for peace So dark outside, I'm so afraid to die Pleasant times and dreams forever gone The water is dragging me To the deepest part of the sea I'm beneath the weight of the oceans Now I lay to rest Now I rest in peace

Absurd 05:16
Inhumanity still persists Despite of all disasters we've passed through The anger surrounds the hearts of men Lost in time! Time is changing and so is society Ignorance among us Blinding the masses, obscuring their minds Keeping the violence, setting us apart Hypocrisy and fear Are these the values of our developed society? Fear is growing, infecting our kind Hate among us Blinding the masses, obscuring their minds Keeping the violence, setting us apart We kill in the name of god We kill in search for power We die for our ideologies are vain Lack of empathy blind us from Reality, preventing us from seeing The suffering of humanity Chaos above us, darkening our skies Violence below us Blinding the masses, obscuring their minds Keeping the violence, setting us apart Divided and disgraced. Is this how we will find peace after all? We are fading in eternal war Hell among us Blinding the masses, obscuring their minds Keeping the violence, tearing us apart

Absorb 07:12
Life is a river And through its course, we flow Streaming across the edge of time And then we fade into the sea But can we stand the turbulence? Water rages against us Absorb the impacts of life Desing your way Stand against the watercourse Absorb the impacts of life Realize the pain you feel can make you stronger Find in your weakness, paths for your own strength Deconstruct your fears, overcome Heal the scars, face the rough embrace of existence Find in your weakness, paths for your own strength Life is like a river that flows eternally Streaming across the edge of time We fade into the sea Overcome the waves you face Overcome the pain you feel Find in your weakness, paths for your own strength Absorb! Absorb the impacts of life!
