Year of the Storms Where we are and where we should be Just two separate points that can just never meet Hence we were born into the year of the storm And when she cries its over me She lets her misery pour So lay down, let it pass you by 'Til the sun breaks through in the sky So lay down, give it up one more time And pray that the rain will subside With every ache inside of my heart I feel your struggle I know what you're fighting for Hence we were born into the year of the storm And when she cries its over me She lets her misery pour So lay down, let it pass you by 'Til the sun breaks through in the sky So lay down, give it up one more time And pray that the rain will subside Hence we were born into the year of the storm And when she cries its over me She lets her misery pour

From These Ashes Heres to another track, and this is for you. No more turning back, you force me straight through Never will I be again the one you fall back to I remember everything you tried to hide Abrupt empty feelings locked up inside Bleeding with emotions dissolving in time I sense you in my mind 'Cause I can't wait for you to open up your mind and eyes and see straight through All the lies you told since you were young. Just face the truth and redefine from the inside Theres things you can't undo And so were taught till we give up Decipher and deception aboard another landslide Holding onto one, is nothing slipping in time I don't ever want to be the one you fall back to Now sheltered from the pain, I stuck the memories inside Ashes from the past I wash away, I'm fine Always thought id be the one to hold not to catch you Not this time 'Cause I can't wait for you to open up your mind and eyes and see straight through All the lies you told since you were young. Just face the truth and redefine from the inside Theres things you can't undo And so were taught till we give up I still burn... If I conform, what would that show? If I had grown, would I have learned? And from these ashes, I still burn 'Cause I can't wait for you to open up your mind and eyes and see straight through All the lies you told since you were young Just face the truth and redefine from the inside Theres things you can't undo And so were taught till we give up

Restoring Our Incisions Expending all of my strength to reform all that is hollow Extenuating circumstance befalls me and now The realization of this war is hard to swallow The preparation now is done Its time to react I can't wait to face tomorrow So I can be through with this pain Nothing helps to heal the sorrow There's nothing there shining my way But I feel you within me The tragedy is always the same And I take these beatings Knowing that I am to blame (The tragedy is always the same) The perseverance that projects itself shows moral And what I'm seeking is the chance to turn things around What's been absorbed has now been formed into this fossil A fragile shell of ourselves It's time to break out I can't wait to face tomorrow So I can be through with this pain Nothing helps to heal the sorrow There's nothing there shining my way But I feel you within me The tragedy is always the same And I take these beatings Knowing that I am to blame

The Headache 04:32
The Headache Theres no way that I won't try Won't try... Theres no way that I won't try To divide this, to compromise Yes, I feel so much inside Damn this need for you So now I proudly sing to you, I scream out loud Who are you pleasing now I need to feel you inside of me, or me inside of you The warmth of your body is missing Like a bird rise above all I've left behind I'm turning back for a second though I'm pressing rewind Visions of your face, memories of this place Make me fine for now Come back to me Somehow, someway Even for just one more day So now I proudly sing to you, I scream out loud Who are you pleasing now I need to feel you inside of me, or be inside of you The warmth of your body is missing God damn this headache I got this headache from you Theres no way that I won't try To divide this and compromise 'Cause I feel so much inside Damn this need Damn this need for you

Orions Fate 03:46
Orion's Fate So I will continue to feed on the sick Your body is aching for more, and I'm your fix No need to whisper or make a sound My thrust is misery, it strikes you down Whatever you want, I will not give I'm selfish and cold, it's the only way that I live I pull out the sword of life that you kiss The seed of my soul leaves a taste upon your lips Throwing me into motions as I break down your defense Playing off your emotions Face to face with no regrets As you lay down before me, I hold my stance You often explore me and take the chance And you will be needed without any doubt As the heart that's been eaten falls from my mouth Staring straight into your eyes I can see how much you fear I'm everything that you despise And that's what draws you near So often I've tried to not run and hide So I lock it inside and face all my demons alone in my mind Defeat them Release them Come clean purified So I will continue to feed on the sick As you I lay down beside me, I hold your hand And as you defy me, convinced I am The devil that greets you and kills with a smile The one who misleads you, left paralyzed Staring straight into your eyes I can see how much you fear I'm everything that you despise And thats what draws you near So often I've tried to not run and hide So I lock it inside and face all my demons alone in my mind Defeat them Release them Come clean purified (I will continue to feed on the sick)

Cope 03:33
Cope You took away everything that matters most You stripped me of my confidence and left me to rebuild myself I've been waiting for so long I've been holding out on my own This time I promise that I'll wont put you behind And these words I will prove you You left me here to deal with the pain that I suffer inside I learned to turn my back on you and retake back my pride I've been haunted by your ghost I've been coping with my loss This time I promise that I won't put you behind And these words I will prove you Where were you when I was facing life on my own Where were you when I was facing the night all alone Where were you when I was screaming out your name Where were you when I was drowning in the sea of flames I've been waiting for so long, I've been coping with my loss This time I promise that I won't put you behind And these words I will prove to you I'm coping

Through Blind Eyes Through blind eyes, you manipulate their minds Smiling on your altar, you use them as your martyr Your faith disguised, the masses hypnotized All the lives you wager Provoking more than anger 'Cause we are nothing but slaves, Paying fare to a game thats chosen for us Make no mistakes We all have no say We are shackled in chains that bind us and can't be broken Twisted in your lies, believe in your Divine Making your own choices, ignoring all our voices Isn't it a crime, with so much on the line Preaching of a vision that only you believe in And I won't be broken down again and lead this life of deception and innocence thats faded And I won't be pushed by them and their demands of submission You won't take away my freedom 'Cause we are nothing but slaves, Paying fare to a game thats chosen for us Make no mistakes We all have no say We are shackled in chains that bind us and can't be broken Nothing but slaves Shackled in chains Can't be broken Nothing but slaves

Transcend 03:30
Transcend We each go our own way, another part of me has died Why take the time to deal with the pain Why even try it never goes away As darkness lies waiting the light is beginning to fade It all has to come to an end someday With all I've destroyed there is nothing thats left to be saved Letting it all flow through Enslaved by my own guilt The serpents feeding on my veins I wash my hands of my past No use in holding on I can't go back at all As darkness lies waiting the light is beginning to fade It all has to come to an end someday With all I've destroyed there is nothing thats left to be saved Letting it all flow through my hands Like water Like the air We transcend Transcend

Living Proof 04:02
Living Proof In your world, all you have are useless demands Fuck your rules, I've taken all that I can stand You just stood there laughing as I fell to the floor As I rose, you were gasping When I asked you once more Is that the best you've got? Just look at me, I've made it through Just wait and see, I'm living proof This is my world, and I'll do things as I please These are my words, and I wear them on my sleeves What it takes to be happy, what it takes to belong If you doubt me then just ask me What it takes to be strong Just look at me, I've made it through Just wait and see, I'm living proof I'm living proof Your time is through I'm living proof

My Denial 04:57
My Denial This is my denial Inside, my veins flow with denial I decline, I fell victim to desire You might find, walking blind and undecided We subside, giving into guilty pleasures It won't be long 'til we end up there Taking the fall without the fear Risking it all Never mind my voice cause I'm faded and wasted Alone in my own abyss again I can make it As long as you can find me in the right way Just release me from this web you've spun into me Now I've tried to leave this life behind, I denied temptation from all sides And with time, I see through others eyes And realize how fucked-up I'm inside It won't be long 'til we end up there Taking the fall without the fear Risking it all Never mind my voice cause I'm faded and wasted Alone in my own abyss again I can make it As long as you can find me in the right way Just release me from this web you've spun into me... This is my denial
11.
What's to Be Expected I've tried to prove to you I am able to share the weight that this bears on us all I'll lift you up while I take the fall I'll be the thorn that tears us apart And should you know that this isn't all that I am able to put forth But in your eyes, in your mind I'm impending disaster We'll turn the tide in due time Put an end to this chapter I feel your fear, I sense you're torn Should you run or should you hide I can't predict the outcome Just the moment our egos collide But in your eyes, in your mind I'm impending disaster We'll turn the tide in due time Put an end to this chapter I found a place where you can't reach me So scream away cause I won't hear I found a place where you can't bleed me My safe haven in which I heal So scream away (Scream away) But in your eyes, in your mind I'm impending disaster We'll turn the tide in due time Put an end to this chapter But in your eyes...
