Suffer, because this world is cold and merciless You continue to walk the path that crumbles beneath you Take a hit; you will be saved by “The Phantom” He will save us all, but for the right price When our fractured bonds begin to tear and fray Then your world is left in darkness, reach up and pray to the Godray We need to be fixed Fracture, every time you ignore the aftermath The pearly gates are closed just like a casket You have been given life by a man in the sky But the truth is the fact that you’ve all been fed lies When our fractured bonds begin to tear and fray Then your world is left in darkness, reach up and pray to the Godray We need to be fixed When our fractured bonds begin to tear and fray Then your world is left in darkness, reach up and pray to the Godray Reach up and pray to the Godray

Hell Above 03:39
lyrics

Welcome to the world that we’re living in Redefining “a future worth shaping” Your stale propaganda can be overcome If our future is damaged, will we be the last ones? Turning the tide in the coming of days Ending our war but the battles still rage Consuming the knowledge of what we’ve become Can war, death and famine finally be outrun? Now I see we cannot be set free How do you see yourself on this earth? What have you done? What are you worth? We’ll all be erased during Armageddon So if hell is above us, then where is your heaven? Say goodbye to the world that we’re living in As we’re tormented by flawed desecration Burning the sky with a twisted lament Under the ground as a quick descent Blinding bright in the coming of days Our battles must end, now a war must rage Consuming the knowledge of what we’ve become Can pestilence and rapture ever be outrun? Now I see we cannot be set free How do you see yourself on this earth? What have you done? What are you worth? We’ll all be erased during Armageddon So if hell is above us, then where is your heaven? Now I see we cannot be set free How do you see yourself on this earth? What have you done? What are you worth? We’ll all be erased during Armageddon So if hell is above us, then where is your heaven?

Cataclysm (CAGEDD III) 03:20
lyrics
buy track
Why can we not conceive the probable outcome of when we do not exist Come ice and come fire, Come failure transparent Our future will end in a crushing abyss Welcome to this place Have we been here before? Will we ever escape this planet of solitary Confinement and fear? Or will we remain in a cage? Why can we not conceive the structure Of those who have groomed us to this stage Come virus come meltdown, conclusion apparent A violent event turns to panic and rage Welcome to this place We have been here before Will we ever escape this planet of solitary Confinement and fear? Or will we remain in a cage? Crawl out of your cage And jump to the rhythm We’ve reached another cataclysm Welcome to this place I’m not afraid anymore Will we ever escape this planet of solitary Confinement and fear? Or will we remain in a cage? Cataclysm

Vicarious Oblivion 05:10
lyrics
buy track
Can you see what we as humans can endure? The pain of life, as certain death becomes obscured My world turned to black; I can’t find my way back As I fall deeper into the void Can you feel what I feel as a surrogate? I should never need to play the advocate Completely unaware, lost within a stare As I march on through the abyss Wish my eyes were wide open Do you know What am I searching for? How do I know When I have found what I need to be myself again? Hey! Don’t you dare play the victim This is your chance to believe me As I told you before, the choice that you make Will not be easy Wish my eyes wouldn’t open Do you know What am I searching for? How do I know When I have found what I need to be myself again? Hey! Hey! Oblivion take me Do you know What am I searching for? How do I know When I have found what I need to be myself again? Oblivion take me

The Price / The Curse 02:43
lyrics
buy track
When will we realize what we have done? After extinction level event has come What have we become through greed and deception? Now this is the price we must pay When will we burn through the rest of our resources? Before, before we bow our heads in regret You think you’ll be within the small percent That survives but stricken with moral descent We won’t pay for the blood we have shed But we’ll pay with our own lives instead It’s a horrible price we must pay The price we pay We are forced to scramble and fix our mistakes But we’ve always been told our problems are fake Now we know in our hearts it’s already too late We will fight and we’ll fight but how much can we take? Oh, how? Saving this world is a painful long shot We will try and we’ll try but it’s all for naught How did nobody realize, this is worse than we thought? It’s a horrible price we must pay

I am the virus within your mainframe That chokes the life out of your System, Reset You looked scared as I approached You are one in a million Don’t think it’s safe to be alone Hiding behind your screen, I can see you I will corrode Through your system I am the virus In nocturne eyes When I burrow myself Underneath your skin Spread like the cancer that is mankind You are controlled You will not oppose You may see tomorrow Before your eyes close Your framework will fail We’ll descend into chaos It is not safe to go outside at night Stay in the safety of your darkened Hearts will be bent and distorted And in time controlled when I decide What is left before the sun takes us away I will corrode Through your system I am the virus In nocturne eyes When I burrow myself Underneath your skin Spread like the cancer that is humankind You are controlled You will not oppose You may see tomorrow Before your eyes close You may see tomorrow Before your eyes close I am the virus

Ill Gotten Gains 03:26
lyrics
buy track
Show me what you have to gain You lie, you steal, you cheat your way through life Then one day end up a slave, to your own device You know that we see you; you know what you’ve done At the end of all of this you’ll be left with no one Are you satisfied with your ill gotten gains? You coward, you snake, you must be ashamed You sat in your tower and continued to blame What are you doing, what have you done? At the end of all of this you’ll be left with no one When no one is left, when nothing remains Will you be satisfied with your life? And your ill gotten gains Ill gotten gains Show me what you have to gain You asshole, you fake, how do you explain The ones you lost to your entire lifelong campaign You’ve fractured, you’ve broken, your whole systems failed But in the end you somehow think that you have prevailed Now nothing is left, now no one remains Are you satisfied with your life? And your ill gotten gains Show me what you have to gain!

Pyramids Fall 03:55

Watch as societies begin to collapse Between war overseas and the cyber attacks We all live to fight against one another Doesn’t matter your rank if you lose all your brothers There’s blood on the snow, there’s blood in the sand Your friend slowly dying as you’re gripping his hand We’ve never had peace, with our leaders unbound One way or another we end up in the ground Like many before us, our cultures destroyed The greed of our world leaders’ schadenfreude Maybe we don’t find peace after all We see our end of days is here As the pyramids fall All wars are built on religion and greed It’s never concluded ’til our saviours bleed One man will lead with disciples of twelve We’re not at war with each other; we’re at war with ourselves Violent nature reflects centuries past Our primal aggression shows the lack of contrast Evolution will suffer corrosion will thrive Will this hatred be echoed in those who survive? Like many before us, our cultures destroyed The greed of our world leaders’ schadenfreude Maybe we don’t find peace after all We see our end of days is here As the pyramids fall Like many before us, our cultures destroyed The greed of our world leaders’ schadenfreude Maybe we don’t find peace after all We see our end of days is here As the pyramids fall

We’re worlds apart but still we can’t see Through the looking glass at our distant memories Terrified of what we’d become The nomads become desperate and numb Roam the wastes This land has fallen to the Cruel and damned, we’re all Surviving in a land of insanity If innocence is not labelled as free The consequence is societal apogee Turn away from the grievance of man Relinquish our home And lay claim to this land Roam the wastes This land has fallen to the Cruel and damned, we’re all Surviving in a land of insanity Roam the wastes This land has fallen to the Cruel and damned, we’re all Surviving in a land of insanity The world will end while we all sleep soundly “The New Year” has no boundaries As warriors, our kin be reared And know this My people will be feared Roam the wastes This land has fallen to the Cruel and damned, we’re all Surviving in a land of insanity Roam the wastes This land has fallen to the Cruel and damned, we’re all Surviving in a land of insanity

Cowards! You left us behind Go ahead and run Don’t come back, You won’t like what you will find You cowards I watched you escape from your ivory tower You cowards And our ground starts to quake in the eleventh hour We were devoured Why did you run? Look what you have become We thought that our leaders Would never succumb You built our bed, you told us to dream You lit a match and you burned us to sleep Can’t you see Destruction is our reality You have paved the way Betrayal, escaping gravity How? How could you? How? How could you be the victim? You cowards We’ve watched you descend in your struggle for power You cowards You will be devoured, we have the power Why did you run? Look what you have become We thought that our leaders Would never succumb You built our bed, you told us to dream You lit a match and you burned us to sleep Can’t you see Destruction is our reality You have paved the way Betrayal, escaping gravity Doomed I’ll watch you fall The gravity of you Cowards! We have the power Why did you run? Look what you have become We thought that our leaders Would never succumb You built our bed, you told us to dream You lit a match and you burned us to sleep Can’t you see Destruction is our new reality You have paved the way Betrayal, escaping gravity

I open my eyes A shadow cast over lifeless ground Blame the sunrise A giant staring each of us down Now we say goodbye As skies are turning black The fear we try to hide We stare forward, no turning back Final shine, it’s burned in my mind Show me a way, let us escape Daylight divine, the darkness confines, I Pray for escape; please don’t let this be our last day In the night sky Our hope glows, threatens to stay away A moonlit outcry To the ghost who hides while I’m lost in the grey Now we say goodbye As skies are turning black The fear we try to hide We stare forward, I am looking back Final shine, it’s burned in my mind Show me a way, let us escape Daylight divine, the darkness confines, I Pray for escape; please don’t let this be our last day Final shine, it burns in my eyes Watch as daylight dies Final shine, it’s burned in my mind Show me a way, let us escape Daylight divine, the darkness confines, I Pray for escape; please don’t let this be our last Daylight divine, it’s burned in my mind Show me a way, let us escape Daylight divine, the darkness confines, I Pray for escape; please don’t let this be our last day

Strangled In The Sand 06:30

Rise up and crawl from the ashes The flash of light now crashes Back to earth Could we ever turn back the sands of time? Open up your eyes Open up your - Oh, open up to havoc Buried alive under the sand, suffocating Look around and realize we have all been strangled Oh, now, our structure has fallen Locked away in the darkness of us all Bow down to your new disaster Gaze upon your draining power You must fight to survive Bury that evil deep down inside Don’t let your evil continue to thrive Destroying your evil will keep us alive Broken and beaten you try to defeat them; you will not be kept as a slave Scratching and clawing and endlessly falling into a darkened shade of grey Burning desires reignite the fires that once had led your heart astray Hold on to reason; forego all the bleeding and maybe one day you’ll escape Strangled in the sand After the skies had fallen down The end approaches faster As we all scream together Save us from our own disaster Lies! We were the ones who wanted ascension Rise up and crawl from the ashes The flash of light now crashes Back to earth Could we ever turn back the sands of time? Open up your eyes Open up your - Oh, open up to havoc Buried alive under the sand, suffocating Look around and realize we are all strangled in the sand

about

We will lead our own planet to destruction. Somewhere, a distant planet’s eventual downfall through religion, greed and corrupted world leaders shatters what hope we may have here at home. This is the Final Shine.
