The Change
04:25
|
|||
Surviving few who can remember
The former world before the change
Living now in a world dismembered
Fears are real but don’t seem strange
We’ll survive
We’ll leave the change for another day
World can thrive
Our future’s sold, yet we still delay
Blindly march to our desolation,
There’s still time for our salvation
Refuse to see impending doom
A chance to change, our greed will bloom
Exploit our resources
Outbreed our environment
Use what we want
Change the requirements
Will we survive?
Can we leave the change for another day?
World can’t thrive
Our future’s sold, yet we still delay
Blindly marched to our desolation,
There’s no time for our salvation
Refused to see our impending doom
No chance, no change, our seed is doomed
It’s too late now, we should have changed.

Dies The Fire
04:58
|

Systems failing, Leaders bailing,
Crumbling walls there is no scaling
Our needs feed on life
Now Earth must be fed
Living with dependencies
Our life of gathering useless things
Soon we reap those poisoned seeds
We are failing without machines
We survive now by any means
When dies the fire
Death is now life
Earth will be fed
Our fragile system collapses
Nature rises up from the ashes
To cleanse these poisoned beings
We are failing without machines
We survive now without any means
When dies the fire
Failing without machines
Dies the fire
Silence our dreams

Doomsday
05:34
|
|||
Glowing on the horizon
The wave of shadows rising
Slowly getting nearer
Impending doom is clearer
The savage beasts within, could barely be kept in
One false move, mistake
Find ourselves with no escape
Searching day to day, the sky is ever-grey
No life within me
Exist in pain, no future we can see
Do you wish to die? Or do more than survive?
Foolish luxury
Dark despair in times like these.
If you believe the voices
You only have two choices:
Embrace the call of darkness
Feast upon its rotting carcass
Encase your hopes and dream,
Release them down the stream
Can we come back from world we burned?
We must learn, There is no return
Protect these hopes and dreams
Save them for the world to see
If you hear the voice remember the choice
that has been placed before you
Please carry the fire, within your heart
Protect the light, to save us
NO! WE are the darkness inside you
WE consume all of your light!

Ash Winter
03:30
|
|||
Darkness falls with the snow
Mingled with the ash
Nothing left of the world we know
Peering through our past
The pain of cold, chills our bones
A hollowed man turned carnivore
We fade in this ash winter
Survival forces us to splinter
And we fear what we must do to live
Barely survive in a land of ghosts
Remains of those provide us posts
To guide us through this barren land
We may soon join them hand in hand
And we do what we must to live

The Leftovers
06:30
|
|||
In the distance, hear them drawing near
In an instance the body’s gripped with fear
Scavengers survive, monsters rove
Captured fools writhe as groups enclose
We’re all that is left
The best and all the worst
First thought we were blessed
Now we are all cursed
Just stay calm, don’t fear.
We’ll be safe, right here
We were wrong, they now surround us
Stay strong, too late they’ve found us
Hold on!
We know they’re here, breathe in their fear
We will find them
Take them all down, face to the ground
There is no hope
Tonight we will eat, their hearts will beat
For one last time
We will survive, we will survive!
We are all the leftovers
We won’t stop till we takeover
We’re all that is left, The worst and all the rest
First thought we were blessed, Now know we are cursed
Some days we cry up to the sky
What is our purpose? Why not just die?
Do we give into the darkness?
Cast our fire out
Cold and completely heartless
Is it better to go without?
Just stay calm, don’t fear. You’ll be safe right here, I promise
We’re all that is left, Becoming the worst
Live lives of regret, Must rid of this curse
Be the butcher to survive or line up with the cattle
Survival at any cost has now become the battle
We feast to survive!
We are the leftovers, we are you

Lost Technology
05:37
|
|||
A light shines across, revealing the door
Locked away for many years
It lights up the way parting the storm
That swept away humanity
A long lost place discovered
Technology lost, uncovered
Knowledge tossed, recovered
Wind biting to the bone
Full of voices tied to one
Ascending towards a question:
How can we ignore a pathway to
a world from before?
A chance to be more than savage
Restore what’s damaged
Machines turning on, Restarting the core
Illuminating past warnings
A choice don't ignore or it can’t restore
The balance this planet needs
The wind whispers from beyond
We cannot ignore the past mistakes
Of lives gone before
A chance to save
This power to choose what we create
Our future renewed
A choice to restore our knowledge
Be more than savage
Explore and salvage
Restore the damaged
A pathway to understand what we can become once more

Sold Future
07:28
|
|||
Future sold an emptiness within
Discouraged souls grieve a life that could have been
Dreams are dust, cast a wind
Torn from us, lost again
This life's being drawn from me
In this dying world of apathy
Lost in darkness of eternal night
We search for the last rays of dawn
But facing a future devoid of light
We lose the will to carry on
A future sold, a uniquely human sin
A sinking hole where a heart had once been in
Leaving us to salvage what's left
Looking past our dreams while we slept
The blood rises up in me
Anger shakes me from this dreamless sleep
Lost in darkness of eternal night
We search for the last rays of dawn
But facing a future devoid of light
We lose the will to carry on
There is no feeling to invest
Sold future
When hopes and dreams are in arrest
Lost in darkness of eternal night
We search for the last rays of dawn
But facing a future devoid of light
We lose the will to carry on
