Overlooked

Witness the dawn break the comfort of night. There is no reason, or strength it provides. Within me begins the start of decline. Forever alters, the past that is mine. Something has come in between us, but we will not break now. Feel no longer strength in numbers. Seems our world will be the end. Can you carry me my friend? I am lost. I'm too scared to bear the cost. Why can't I see it when it chooses to appear? Overlooked again and my burden is clear. Something has come in between us, but we will not break now. So here we are. Alone we've made it through the dark. To see what we've become inside. A change that we can't hide, but I'll always, always deny. This ends tonight. Fading with the light. I'll change my ways in time, only with you by my side.

A Place To Hide
06:49

We finally found it, a place to hide. All was bleak, hope was out of reach. This place is perfect, and your still here. Don't despair because we're almost home. Stay with me. They finally found it, a way inside. I hear their screams, hope now out of reach. I can't explain it, they followed us here. There's no way we can escape them all. Stay with me, lay with me, disappear, all our fear. Our turn to see what it means to end it all, afraid for the fall, but the choice around us, I can't let you make, you are mine to take. She's breathing slowly, her life is fading. And now I envy her. Breathing slowly in the night to fade away in time. How I envy her. It's my turn to see what it means to end it all, afraid for the fall, but the choice beside me, I can't seem to make. I live with my mistakes. Believe in disparity.

Regression
07:34
|

Before we began, time without end. The origin of us all, preparing for the fall. Lesson learned tonight, the value of hindsight. Informs us of when, and how it will end. History leaves scars, where transformation starts. Desperate to provide, a reason to survive. Children of the shade, all born to fade, away into the end, and begin again. As we regress into a state of infinite, we condemn the innocent. Prepare your soul, time will unfold. No light, dead night, future, unsure. The margin made too thin, the battle we can't win. Futility denied, reason lost to pride. We have regressed, there's nothing left. Humanity is lost, to cosmic holocaust. As we regress into a state of infinite, we condemn the innocent. As we regress there is nothing here to mark our past. Pretend to live again. It's too late for our sake. We're too late, escaping fate.

Indignation
06:06
|

|
Light behind your eyes, can't see anything, shut them. Sound is obscured, cannot find, left behind, forgotten. Please, I've done nothing, cloudburst. I miss the rain to purify. No it's too late to pardon my crimes. Near is the end, I can't stay here, I am defeated. There is nothing left to break me. I know I'm alive. I miss the rain to purify. No it's too late to pardon my crimes. Days come and go swallowed in shadow, with no place to hide. Indignation, no salvation, even for me. Near is the end, I can't stay here, I am defeated. There is nothing left to break me. I know I'm alive.

In Sickness
09:19

Further, adrift from my soul. Further, from where I know. Closer, to those who will steal. Closer, to your sense I appeal. Absent, the presence of light in this place. Absence, could be my only saving grace. Present, the end of all days is drawing near. Your presence, I feel here. Please can you save me? From eternity alone in this place. Wait, it's far too late to save your soul, within the sickness grows. Careless, my mistakes have lead me here. Careless, I close my eyes in fear. Confess, the nature of your stay. Hopeless, is my fate. Desperate now to find a cure, for we live in sickness. Please can you save me? From eternity alone in this place. Wait, it's far too late to save your soul, you live in sickness. Can this be? I'm awake, I'm free. It has been so long since I've left, I'm home. Desperate now to find a cure, for we live in sickness.

All we've known is hidden in light. All we've known ends tonight.

Deadlights
07:42
|

Standing at the edge of existence, staring at the distant horizon. Waiting for a sign, a signal that will lead us to a new reign, where we can start again. Careless progress, wasting knowledge. There is no one safe from the end, we all meet the same fate. A chance to be spared from the cold light when it starts to fade. Can we change fate? Time will bring us back to the origin, reliving our first moments. Dangerous to assume we are meant to be here and be in control, oh we will never know. Darkness has come to take us home. A chance to be spared from the cold light when it starts to fade. A chance to be spared from the cold light when it starts to fade at night. Meet me in the deadlights. Wake me, tell me that it's over, I need to know, that we're safe, and we can discover, where we belong.

Breathe
07:45

Breathing in, I sense the air changed tonight. Giving in, I embrace the bright starlight. Time has come around again. I'd do almost anything; give away everything. To realize what's fraudulent, and undo what I've betrayed. As I breathe the air, now I feel un-scared. In front of me, the answers were there to see, the answers there were to deceive. Don't believe, nothing is meant to be, nothing is what it seems. And I wait for all of time to end. The rest of my life to being. And it's hard for me now to pretend, I'm ok. As I breathe, the air, now I feel un-scared. As I breathe. Suddenly everything that I've loved has turned against me. Holding on to this moment it seems my efforts have been in vain. I forget to breathe.

Our Absolution
07:30
|
|||
|
A mistake for us ever to be at all, revealed at its infancy. Recognition of doom from the stars, shrouded in their secrecy. The coldest of all mornings. Something draws my eye, distracted from all else towards the sky. Carried from my earthly senses. Suddenly alone, with all my deeds for which I can't atone. Knowing how but never coming home. I awake from here right now, only a dream, the safety of our absolution. You take from what is known, tearing the seems. Enter dawn of recreation. Scared, waiting through the night with hope for day. Never breaking, only misleading. Here with you now, I accept my fate. Though our hearts are strong, we are far too late. Now we know that this is how it all must end. No comfort from my faith to lend. All that we are becomes what was, the safety of our ignorance lost. A mistake for us ever to be at all, revealed at its infancy. Recognition of doom from the stars, shrouded in their secrecy. The coldest of all mornings.

Favorite! Put on Fractured as loud as you can and do something like clean the house. You’ll be done in no time. High energy, catchy and really melodic. This release is special in that it’s kind of a “best of”. I have all their other music but this is the 4 best songs and I listen to this disc frequently.
