lyrics

There is no dawn,
There is no light to look to -
Embrace the night, swallow the fear that grips you.
The veil is gone
And as the silence slips through
A fate of failure is all that awaits you.

As the darkness nests
You'll find your life bereft -
Beyond the veil of faith
There's only nothingness.
And as the darkness takes
The shackles of belief
Will break and be replaced
By nothing.

Will you fall
To sink a cynic;
Or will you crawl?

Where are the stars?
Where is your heaven promised?
Deluded by a dream - an ocean of lies.
That dream is gone -
As blackened night enshrouds all
Into a darkened fate of hate you will fall.

Eviscerating the light through enlightenment of nihil -
But ascendancy is to sow the seed of a life beyond the sea.
Until this time that dream was seen in the light
And this dream would never end unless you opened your eyes -
But you shall not wake - we exist in the dream;
Day shall not break - we exist in the night.

Open your eyes - realise your life is demise;
Embrace the night and rise through unto the light.

Will you fall
To sink a cynic;
Or will you crawl
A struggler into the dawn?
And as the silence fills your soul -
A fate of failure taking hold;
And as the silence slips through
The solace breaks you
And eminence takes hold.

The eminent
Your ascendance
Is tied to the fate you will defy.

Purposeless;
Light extinguished, darkness nests;
Falling into hopelessness;
Fading into faithlessness;
To struggle is your fundament -
Struggle, endure and contend -
Fabricate your eminence;
Sow the seed of your ascent;
Rise through your demise

And struggle through the night.

The eminent
Your ascendance
Is tied to the fate you will devise.

Will you fall
To sink a cynic;
Or will you crawl
A struggler into the dawn?
And as the silence fills your soul -
A fate of failure taking hold;
And as the silence slips through
The solace breaks you
And eminence takes hold.
