My Escape 04:47
...Where I'm supposed to be. Slowly dripping off the edge, I've never seen the floor. No one ever needed me, I lift my fingers more. Caged inside a realm, so dear, which I've never seen before. I'm not the one I think I am, lying on the floor! Lying still, I'm in my head, Making up my mind on death. Two thoughts hanging on the edge. The king still dreams while one is dead! ...No one here will ever know. Drawing closer to the end, my mind will close in time. Artifacts I thought I knew lay their icy hands! Ruling above, the ground, the sky, the wasteland of my world. A poisoned truth to extend my woe. I'll never wake up! Lying still, I'm in my head, Making up my mind on death. Two thoughts hanging on the edge. The king still dreams while one is dead! Lying still, I'm in my head, Making up my mind on death. Two thoughts hanging on the edge. The king still dreams while one is dead! Lay me down! Blind my world! No more lies! voiceless cries! No more lies! No more roots beneath the skin. Nothing more to take; The artifacts that cry. Raining from the clouds that cover up the sky! They can only interpret what I know; It comes from the heart! ...You can't save me now. Endless space to circle, align; A void of empty thought It's my world to torture alone. The fire that burns, never leaves. The stars, the scars all above never leave this place. My mind alone holds me tight. I'll forever cry to sleep. Lying still, I'm in my head, Making up my mind on death. Two thoughts hanging on the edge. The king still dreams while one is dead! Lying still, I'm in my head, Making up my mind on death. Two thoughts hanging on the edge. The king still dreams while one is dead! Lay me down! Blind my world! No more lies! voiceless cries!

Distant worlds, paint the horizon. Miles of stars, up in flames. Bright lights claim, a shattered sky. Planetary Fragments rain! As I walk, I feel the ground crumble; Cracks forming beneath my feet! The ground opens, I begin to fall. Never before have I felt so weak! Take from me all I need, Deceive me, strip my life of worth! Colony of Empathy, Distant worlds; we travel to survive Never have I tread this broken world! Never have I dreamt this path unfold! Never have I made this time alone! These Distant Worlds will guide my way to you! Onward travel through the burning sky! Always travelling to protect our lives. Fire! Burning from the rocks that collide. Hope escaping from the planet's eye! Prelude to chaos, a distant blue! Come in closer amongst the despair! Light escaping, empty inside, All hope lost with the escapee's lie. Take from me all I need, Deceive me, strip my life of worth! Colony of Empathy, Distant worlds; we travel to survive Never have I tread this broken world! Never have I dreamt this path unfold! Never have I made this time alone! These Distant Worlds will guide my way to you! Distant collision with the hope we held! Another night, drifting through worlds. Looking through what sight we have, Stealing the lights the we nearly had! The silver bindings of light in the sky; Walking back from a world of lies. A sun of nothing blinded dark. As weak as we'll ever be, we embark! Take from me all I need, Deceive me, strip my life of worth! Colony of Empathy, Distant worlds; we travel to survive Never have I tread this broken world! Never have I dreamt this path unfold! Never have I made this time alone! These Distant Worlds will guide my way to you! Never have I tread this broken world! Never have I dreamt this path unfold! Never have I made this time alone! These Distant Worlds will guide my way to you!

Blacksand 04:17
As the wind cries, Breaking the silence, It's like a whiplash pulling your heartstrings! Momentum increasing. BLACKSAND! Cripple your back, It just feels numb, You slave! The blackening churns, The oil in your stomach Cracks the surface! Beneath the waves, This vicious current, Boils the blood. BURIED! Beneath the surface! Call on the tide! Quickens the pace of BLACKSAND! Whirlpools collide! You are the vessel! Hourglass is counting. Blacksand is haunting! Crush! Within the depths of hell! Driven under by the quicksand current, Fall! Within the depths of horror! Reaching new water, feel your ground falter! Roll the dice, bite your tongue, Stain the sand with your DNA! This is betrayal, leave that behind! This is betrayal, out of time! Turn back the clocks, retrace your steps. This is the only way! Seconds of the sun, descend on the desert! Burning horizon, the darkest of lights!

Force me under, I can take the pain. A thousand bullets dancing to the madness of one's self. Crying, begging, begging for someone; a helpless excuse. A cry to be the one in vain, a silence rewritten! Can I stay and wait this way? I feel so cold and I'm going insane! Time and time again, I wait for you. Control my hate, change my fate. Break me down! Stuck in a place, content to abyss, Living the lives of a thousand! All alone, forced to lose myself. Content with divine hospitation! Breaking, we'll perish! Becoming one with yourself, becoming one for all! Begging to break down! Crawling to the place of The Silent Dissolve! Can I live this lie? This void of empty thought. Becoming one with the lie of expectation! See the scars alligned with the sky; the place to kill us all! Jet black painted wars of liquid tension! Breaking, we'll perish! Becoming one with yourself, becoming one for all! Stuck in a place, content to abyss. Living the lives of a thousand! All alone, forced to lose myself. Content with the silent abyss. Begging (begging)! Break down (Breakdown)! Crawling to the place of The Silent Dissolve!

Lay me down. Blind my world. No more lies. Voiceless cries.

Abundant lord and master I am; controlling your mind, to define my own. Herding the sheep of the city lights, conforming to another night. Blinding lights to the blinded eyes 'cause we are The controllers! Of the empty minded! The controllers! Of the empty minded! The controllers! Of the empty minded! The controllers! Of the empty minded! FADING! The thought to save it all! Nothing will ever be free from the cold! You try to stand on the ground, as it shakes from the blood impending! Nothing will ever reach them as you stand your ground alone! Family's dying, children crying; all lost souls without a guide! The city's light of metropolis will fade them away. None of the bloodshed escapes their minds until the Last of their lives are taken with the city. Abundant lord and master I am; controlling your mind, to define my own. Herding the sheep of the city lights, conforming to another night. Blinding lights to the blinded eyes 'cause we are The controllers! Of the empty minded! The controllers! Of the empty minded! The controllers! Of the empty minded! The controllers! Of the empty minded!

"Theirs is a band that unifies the sounds of In Flames and Dream Theater for a product that is surprisingly addictive and filled with lots of fun flashy parts and epic songwriting. As a whole their music is very streamlined and finely polished. Their stellar production allows them to craft intricate soundscapes that capture the listeners ear and hold them in thrall to the strangely beautiful sounds of Dire Insanity."
