Got no time to think about what they did to me
I have left my former self and still I′m changing

Rain, come down on me
Nightfall, won’t you just set me free?
Rain, come down on me
Rain on me

Just accept the sorrow (fade away)
Look around for turning points, let me go
Bringing back tomorrow (led astray)
′Cause you’re the only one who knows

Just accept the sorrow (fade away)
Look around for turning points, let me go
Bringing back tomorrow (led astray)
‘Cause you′re the only one who knows

Banish me to feel safe in your prison
Of gold and morality
Cussing my birth as an aberration
A sick child of subhuman breed

Life, it ends tonight
Breaking the chains of eternity
Life, it ends tonight
Set me free

What should I know?
What should I do to get rid of you?
Your life to me equals nothing

Nightfall, come down on me
Rain, won′t you just set me free?
Nightfall, come down on me
Rain on me

Just accept the sorrow (fade away)
Look around for turning points, let me go
Bringing back tomorrow (led astray)
‘Cause you′re the only one who knows

Just accept the sorrow (fade away)
Look around for turning points, let me go
Bringing back tomorrow (led astray)
‘Cause you′re the only one who knows

Take me back to where my soul
Still means a thing
I don’t need your world of lies
Just want release

Memories are just fading ghosts
Telling the story of someone else
I never had a past, the present is a lie
And now I know my future is dead

Life, it ends tonight
Breaking the chains of eternity
Life, it ends tonight
Set me free

Rain, come down on me
Nightfall, won′t you just set me free?
Rain, come down on me
Rain on me

Just accept the sorrow (fade away)
Look around for turning points, let me go
Bringing back tomorrow (led astray)
‘Cause you’re the only one who knows

Just accept the sorrow (fade away)
Look around for turning points, let me go
Bringing back tomorrow (led astray)
′Cause you′re the only one who knows

Structural Wound

3:18

Wanna push it to the top
Wanna see how damn downward you can go
This is where it all begins
Could as well be my last time for real

Never wanted to know, never wanted to see
Better open your eyes ′cause I’m breaking free
Yeah, I′m breaking free

When your sorrow looks so hollow
No, I don’t need your words of advice anymore
You’re cheating (you′re cheating)
You′re deceiving (you’re deceiving)
Put the blame on me for things that I don′t even know

Fade away, feeling almost dead inside
Feeling dead inside, just tear it apart
Fade away, fallin’ off a shoreless lie
This time, the wound is structural

I know how you feel, know it too
Well, the same old look, you ain′t changed yet
Trust my words, you ain’t seen nothing at all
Wanna drag you down where you brought me
Wanna quench your thirst with the worst disease
Yeah, I′m your disease

All your sorrow looks so hollow
No, I don’t need your words of advice anymore
You’re cheating (you′re cheating)
You′re deceiving (you’re deceiving)
Put the blame on me for things that I don′t even know

But now, I’m aware

There ain′t a reason to justify your denial
And now I see things how they are
Fed up with treasons, my life, from yours, I divide
For all my dreams are torn apart

One day, we’ll meet again
Farewell, why pretend?
See you at the bitter end
Don′t need this curse anymore

To fade away, feeling almost dead inside
Just tear it apart
To fade away, fallin’ off a shoreless lie
This time, the wound is structural

Writer(s): Ettore Rigotti
Perdition Haze

4:20

Tearing down the walls I have painted with blood
Flowing down for eternity
Sliding on the surface of your luscious soul
I′m selling dreams for nothing
(You’re welcome to my private freakshow)

Split the soul, crash and burn and back to the wall
I don′t need a reason
Give you all despicables a brand-new god
I’m going down in a treason

I’m calling your name in the darkness, waiting and you′re so near
It′s too scary inside, I can feel your pain, it’s frustrating
I feel your breath on me

Calling your name In the darkness
Waiting (and you′re so near)
It’s too scary Inside, I can feel your pain, it′s frustrating
I feel your breathe on me

Crystallize all the emotions burning
Upon the stake of my memories
All I wanted, all I needed is so fuckin’ lost

I′m calling your name in the darkness
Waiting (and you’re so near)
It’s too scary inside, I can feel your pain, it′s frustrating
I feel your breath on me

I′m calling your name in the darkness
Waiting (and you’re so near)
It′s too scary Inside, I can feel your pain, it’s frustrating
I can feel your breath on me
I feel your breath on me

(And slowly blood is flowing off me, I′m dying only to revive)
In this perdition haze, I have lost my soul
In this perdition haze, you’re not alone
Going nowhere, it is my destiny, and the one I know
Going nowhere, it is my destiny, and the one I know (that I know)

Going nowhere, still, there′s nowhere to run in this hell I’m raising
Keeping my soul clear from the monsters that breathe
Beyond the dark, I’m feeding

Split the soul, crash and burn and back to the wall
I don′t need a reason
Give you all despicables a brand-new god, forever lost in a treason

I′m calling your name in the darkness waiting and you’re so near
It′s too scary inside, I can feel your pain, it’s frustrating
I feel your breath on me

I′m calling your name in the darkness waiting and you’re so near
It′s too scary inside, I can feel your pain, it’s frustrating
I can feel your breath on me

Building and Empire of Dust

4:24

Right on, ram it down the things you fail to see are standing still
Before your eyes in vivid colours draining your soul ′til you die

And nothing’s true, but the source of your anger
Release the pain that keeps dragging you down
A place called destiny the warm embrace of fiery ice
In each deception a part of me that slowly dies

Right on (to feel the flames, I need to burn inside)
Downfall (oblivion still lives in me)

I′ve seen all that matters before
I dwell inside your fears and cast the spell of loss
You may think that you know me or I even care about you
And pretend to love

For you ain’t nothing, nothing but a victim
Stonecold remnant in the dark towards the enemy
Still craving for a reason why, recklessly searching for an excuse to justify

Right on (to feel the flames, I need to burn inside)
Downfall (oblivion still lives in me)

I’ve seen all that matters before
I dwell inside your fears and cast the spell of loss
You may think that you know me or I even care about you
And pretend to love

From the endless night of my breathless sleep
I will return to drag you down with me

Alone, you stand beyond reality a vision made of sand
Unclear remembrance or mental insanity? (Or insanity)

Down, we′re slipping down (across the burning ruins)
Of a world that′s gone to pieces
I don’t want to (pay the price of your misleading)

Right on (to feel the flames, I need to burn inside)
Downfall (oblivion still lives in me)

I′ve seen all that matters before
I dwell inside your fears and cast the spell of loss
You may think that you know me or I even care about you
And pretend to love

Stephchild of Laceration

5:01

There are so many things that still escape from your numb
And drug-infected brain
So stuck in the mud you call a life (sedated, self-castrated)
Your existence is such a waste of time
Just make an effort and check your pride
I know the surface may look fine
But deep inside you′re nothing but shit

Come alive and make my vision clear for all to see
Look inside and slash your way out of this misery
Lacerate my soul as I

Revive (inside I have no feelings, I ain’t a thing you can control)
Surrender to a stepchild of laceration
Rise (a life without a meaning, starting to lose control)
Surrender to the stepchild of laceration (stepchild of laceration)

I feel so comfortable in my guilt
′Cause things ain’t that bad when you sin
At least I have a soul to sell (deranged and quite obscene)
Oh God, don’t praise me like a whore
Keep your mouth shut and walk out that door
The human abstract at its peak
I just removed the skin and saw the freak within

Come alive and make my vision clear for all to see
Look inside and slash your way out of this misery
Lacerate my soul as I

Revive (inside I have no feelings, I ain′t a thing you can control)
Surrender to a stepchild of laceration
Rise (a life without a meaning, starting to lose control)
Surrender to the stepchild of laceration (laceration, laceration)

Laceration crawling inside my skin ′til I bleed
Lost in perdition, why don’t you pray for me anymore?
Why don′t you pray for me?

I feel so cold (laceration child)
I feel so lost (in perdition, starting to)

Revive (inside I have no feelings, I ain’t a thing you can control)
Surrender to a stepchild of laceration
Rise (a life without a meaning, starting to lose control)
Surrender to the stepchild of laceration (stepchild of laceration)

The Isolation Game

4:05

Fragile bridges burn towers built among the ruins turn to dust as I stare waiting
Hatred fills my lungs sets my soul on fire, lick the wounds and recover for more

I won′t wait for your judgment to come
For you have lost your power
And I won’t let you dispose of my life

Striking down the walls you have built around my vision, still undone, yet barely breathing
Anger feeds my heart raging from the inside chances lost can tear you apart

I won′t wait for your judgment to come
For you have lost your power
And I won’t let you dispose of my life (no more)

Bastard, despite your greed, you have failed to steal my dreams
Facelifter, defied your days are coming your final days are coming

Falling, falling deep in the coldest denial, I won’t be waiting here no more
Calling, calling deep in the core of the night, this endless road

I won′t wait for your judgment to come
For you have lost your power
And I won′t let you dispose of my life

The isolation game
The isolation, the isolation game

Writer(s): Ettore Rigotti
Blacklight Rush

3:47

Like a layer of skin gently removed
Like a needle of sin injected through
As I take you down to planet doom
Blood-red like the smile I will paint on your face

There is no unity, there is no honesty
And I will never be the one that you want me to be
We′re not a family, and I’m the monster that you fear
I′m the monster that you fear
Fear

Steal a vacant sun, no shining through
Fill the empty soul within your womb
Take away them all and straight to you
Blood-red like the smile I will paint on your face

There is no unity, there is no honesty
And I will never be the one that you want me to be
We’re not a family, and I’m the monster that you fear
I′m the monster that you fear
Fear

Blacklight
I′m sworn to thee by the moonshine to be free for eternity
Blacklight
A sacrifice in the cold light to be free from eternal sleep

Batting you down like a rag doll
Mutilated, bruised, and maimed
Beating the shit out of your fuckin’ skull
Torn apart like a pig

There is no unity, there is no honesty
And I will never be the one that you want me to be
We′re not a family, and I’m the monster that you fear
I′m the monster that you fear
Fear

Blacklight
I’m sworn to thee by the moonshine to be free for eternity
Blacklight
A sacrifice in the cold light to be free from eternal sleep

Blacklight rush, won′t you set me free?

Ties That Bind

4:05

Crush you all
No holding barrels, the playground′s scattered, but still I stand my ground
Ain’t your choice
You tried at last and went down quite fast, another despicable frown
Now you′re begging for another way, craving for another way
I’ll drag you to the only way that I know
Deep down to the filth of your soul, where we can both wallow in guilt like pigs in puke

Famine, failing to discover your fate
Rapture, raping all your senses again
Hatred, can’t you find a reason to stay
Rebellion, deception is my game

I am, internally conceived by
Fire, promises and dreams are
Dying, a step beyond perdition
Going down all the ways with you
I am, eternally deceived by
Fire, memories and fears are
Dying, a step towards extinction
Going down with everything you are

Take your turn
I′ve dwelt in shadows, forcefed by razors since the day I was born
Fuck you all
Sleepwalking maggots, addicted morons, facelifters, bastards′ pawns
Keep going down the other way, straight to a brighter day
The day I’ll fucking see your idols fall
As long as there′s hate in my heart, I’ll be crushing you down and never give up

Famine, failing to discover your fate
Rapture, raping all your senses again
Hatred, can′t you find a reason to stay
Rebellion, deception is my game

I am, internally conceived by
Fire, promises and dreams are
Dying, a step beyond perdition
Going down all the ways with you
I am, eternally deceived by
Fire, memories and fears are
Dying, a step towards extinction
Going down with everything you are

Fears may last forever living in a lie
Dreams can bring an answer in desperate times

I am, internally conceived by
Fire, promises and dreams are
Dying, a step beyond perdition
Going down all the ways with you
I am, eternally deceived by
Fire, memories and fears are
Dying, a step towards extinction
Going down with everything you are

Losing Ground

4:15

The last reality check has been a failure, I guess you′ve noticed
A monochromatic play of the things that I hate is just running through

If you could look in the book of my life, would you still stand by my side?
If you could feel this disorder, then would you save me?
I don’t think so

I′m standing on a frozen shore, devoid of faces long time lost
And forever behind as you’re strolling by
Sinking deep down
I am losing ground

Against and beyond and the cycle will turn
I don’t wanna hear you no more
Rejection and blame in a sedative state, accomplish my funeral

If you could look in the book of my life, would you still stand by my side?
If you could feel this disorder, then would you save me?
I don′t think so

I′m standing on a frozen shore, devoid of faces long time lost
And forever behind as you’re strolling by
Sinking deep down
I am losing ground

I′m standing on a frozen shore, devoid of faces long time lost
And forever behind as you’re strolling by
Sinking deep down
I am losing ground

Prey! You ain′t nothing but a
Prey! Crawling and screaming out
Prey! Almost amusing
Prey! Beyond your worthlessness

If you could look in the book of my life, would you still stand by my side?
If you could feel this disorder, then would you save me?
I don’t think so

I′m standing on a frozen shore, devoid of faces long time lost
And forever behind as you’re strolling by
Sinking deep down
I am losing ground

I’m standing on a frozen shore, devoid of faces long time lost
And forever behind as you′re strolling by
Sinking deep down
I am losing ground

Same Old Nails for a New Messiah

3:58

Fed up with bullshit mind castrating lies
The more you preach and the less I wanna hear
′Cause you’re one of a kind
How can you relate with yourself
Sleep well with the sickness that you are

Yeah, it′s you driving me mad, so take your life miles away from mine
(Miles away from mine, miles away from mine, now come on)
Weak and frustrated, you all look like
A swarming mass of pathetic sick pigs wallowing in lies
Still repressing your instincts ’til the day you will finally collapse
I don’t care, but don′t try to fool me for I know the sick bastards that you are

We don′t need no saviour on a cross no more
I can see what religion brings when preachers sleep with kids
We ain’t craving for a second coming at all
I will not uniform, I′d rather slash my throat

I see right through your shell, deep down where demons dwell
Despite your lack of sin, you look like shit within
There ain’t no saviour that can save you from yourself

No matter what, you′ll never be free from the beast within
Ages flow lies perpetuate breeding on and on
And the worst part of all this bullshit has yet to come

We don’t need no saviour on a cross no more
I can see what religion brings when preachers sleep with kids
We ain′t craving for a second coming at all
I will not uniform, I’d rather slash my throat

The ravage of war dwells inside the hearts of men
Faith ain’t but an excuse to justify, the need to kill
Destiny, falling off the pieces, terminal, the state of your disease
Same old nails for a new messiah

We don′t need no saviour on a cross no more
I can see what religion brings when preachers sleep with kids
We ain′t craving for a second coming at all
I will not uniform, I’d rather slash my throat
We don′t need no saviour on a cross no more

I can see what religion brings when preachers sleep with kids
We ain’t craving for a second coming at all
I will not uniform, I′d rather slash my throat
I will not testify, I’d rather take your life

Digging the Grave of Silence

4:19

Digging a grave out of the lies you′ve been feeding me so far
Pushing your face right in the dirt ’cause you′re nothing but a worm

How does it feel to be force-fed by your own shit?
How does it feel to be the first in line without a single spark of dignity?
This is for all the times you tried to silence what I said, call it nothing but vengeance

I am not your pawn (and I am not like you)

There’s a few things that I wanna remind you
Making sure you won’t forget what I′m about to do
Knowing too well that you′ll never ever change
I’m gonna silence your big mouth ′til the end of days

Let me tell you what is done to me, I wouldn’t care ′cause it’ll never set me free
Last call, no matter what (you can′t destroy me)
I will stick to what I’ve always believed, not a person who would lie and deceive
Stand tall, your infected words (can never beat me)

You lack the brains or the guts to practice what you preach
You try to run, but you’re not even worth to crawl at my feet

I am not your pawn (and I am not like you)

Let me tell you what is done to me, I wouldn′t care ′cause it’ll never set me free
Last call, no matter what (you can′t destroy me)
I will stick to what I’ve always believed, not a person who would lie and deceive
Stand tall, your infected words (can never beat me)

There′s a few things that I wanna remind you
Making sure you won’t forget what I′m about to do
Knowing too well that you’ll never ever change
I’m gonna silence your big mouth ′til the end of days

Let me tell you what is done to me, I wouldn′t care ’cause it′ll never set me free
Last call, no matter what (you can’t destroy me)
I will stick to what I′ve always believed, not a person who would lie and deceive
Stand tall, your infected words (can never beat me)
