Lyrics

[01:20.70] Greed in a cage obsolete
[01:25.01] painting colors of old
[01:29.83] Victims of culture unfold,
[01:34.89] the world sighs once more
[01:42.39] Look at us, our eyes are dead;
[01:46.39] A gaze of incentives mislead
[01:50.66] A deadlight, a whisper
[01:53.97] Unearth your face in the mirror
[02:04.42] My hope soon to be over...
[02:09.60] Take me and lock me in
[02:14.04] Throw away the key
[02:17.66] I'm beyond all help,
[02:20.41] So kill me
[02:22.41]
[02:43.85] Bleed in the cage of deceit,
[02:47.85] then; die in the cold
[02:52.28] This is the pain you withhold
[02:55.78] when the world sighs once more
[03:01.72]
[03:58.78] A treacherous spawn here fester,
[04:03.09] holding the future hostage
[04:07.15] and dancing restlessly and bare
[04:11.65] with the phantom of time
[04:15.09] Flies swarm as mouths open
[04:19.09] and dead words are spoken.
[04:22.72] This room has a foul smell...
[04:26.91] There's blood on the walls
[04:28.85] and I need to break out
[04:32.85]
[05:07.55] Look at us, our eyes are dead;
[05:11.57] A gaze of incentives mislead
[05:15.80] A deadlight, a whisper
[05:19.33] Unearth your face in the mirror
[05:27.21]
[05:29.21] My hope soon to be over...
[05:34.71] take me and lock me in
[05:39.15] Throw away the key
[05:42.77] I'm beyond all help
[05:45.83] So kill me
[05:48.15]
[05:48.83] A screaming silence
[05:52.27] hushed beneath the sky;
[05:58.77] silence... thrashing the firmament
