I've looked up to you for such a long time I would give anything to intertwine your life with mine Threw myself at you should have been more mature I let my reckless nature throw myself to the floor Maybe I'm trying too hard to make you see That there is some part of you that wants to say to me Hey there kid you've shown your potential With some encouragement you'll be able to stand tall Hey now kid you've shown that your rare Use that ambition we could create a little flare I bet one day you'll want to fly side by side you and I Until then let me do what I can and let me take you under my wing There are many myths and fables that I hear They all seem to eaggerate and elevate my fears I'm losing sight of what was once a clear road My imagination has gone into overload An internal struggle that leads me astray Maybe I'm not worthy enough to hear you say Hey there kid you've shown your potential With some encouragement you'll be able to stand tall Hey now kid you've shown that your rare Use that ambition we could create a little flare I bet one day you'll want to fly side by side you and I Until then let me do what I can and let me take you under my wing This is getting me nowhere I'm stifling myself No more running or shying away I alone can conquer my fears and self doubt N eed to be honest about this conflict inside Then maybe I can finally hear Hey there kid you've shown your potential With some encouragement you'll be able to stand tall Hey now kid you've shown that your rare Use that ambition we could create a little flare I bet one day you'll want to fly side by side you and I Until then let me do what I can and let me take you under my wing

Shame 04:36
I've not always been who you see today Now pieces of my past are slowly surfacing My apparent high morality disguise who I really am Not all would walk the path I chose to be where I am today Though I may seem forthright and rightous now That is not who I've been always I advise against looking into my past No one can know who I used to be Some things are better off left buried You do not want my shadows to surface again I've tried to always be the better man But truth be told I've caused the misfortune of many Though my past actions come with their own regrets Given a second chance I would probably repeat the same I did what was required to achieve my goals Just don't ask how I came to be You can't know my shame Things will never be the same You can't know my shame No you cannot see how I became You can't know my shame I will protect my past through any means necessary My shadows must remain in the darkness If you follow your chosen path of enquiry They may have to rise one more time I'm not proud of the things I've done to be where I am But I would repeat them again in order to stay Though it may pain my heart to do so It appears I'm burying one more secret today No Shame You can't know my shame No you can't know my shame Things will never be the same No you can't know my No you can't know my No you can't know my Shame Shame No you cannot see how I became You can't know my shame You can't know my shame

She moves through the crowds unseen Her nefarious purpose remains to be seen Her identity's her greatest weapon We're yet to know we've caught her attention Her magic is something you should fear She'll steal away those you hold dear Make accusations as you will You'll find many more fall under her spell The Queen of Deception The Queen of Deception Walks freely among us Plots to overthrow us Minions waiting at your door Careful who you trust anymore Cloak and dagger tactics, mind control She takes down opponents casually in her stroll There is little most can do Her power is matched by very few Her Ultimate goal is more than dominion of a soul A Megalomaniac who is looking to stage a worldwide coup The Queen of Deception The Queen of Deception So you've seen through my disguise You still can't hope to stop my rise Now I'm forced to seal you away Trust me you'll never see the light of day We come to you out of necessity We have set our sights upon your city My kind require to voraciously feed A warning to which you should have taken heed And so my army follows in my wake Once I've paved the way they'll get their take Once I'm rid of those who can stop me It'll be too late for you to run and flee Soon there will be nowhere for you to hide Your defences will fall from the inside Prepare to see our full aggression from the Queen of Deception Walks freely among us Plots to overthrow us Minions waiting at your door Careful who you trust anymore If she has you in her sight Better be prepared to fight Your future hopes and dreams Are not part of her schemes

One Day 04:58
Time has fallen on my reign Now forced to walk these desolate plains Those still loyal to me at my side Looking back at where we used to thrive Circumstanstial change, A public ousting A place where I no longer claim to be king we will return One promise I can keep We will not choose to live this way we will return One promise I can keep Mark my words, here you will not forever stay One day, We will rise again Take back the only place we've ever called home One day, I promise my friend But for now we have fallen One day, We will rise again But for now we have fallen Look to the horizon, our rising sun will be soon We will return This is not the end We will not choose to live this way We will return This is not the end Mark my words, You will rue this day One day, We will rise again Take back the only place we've ever called home One day, I promise my friend But for now we have fallen One day, We will rise again But for now we have fallen Look to the horizon, our rising sun will be soon

Never Alone 04:12
A dark cloud hangs over your head A burden you try to hide You see it as your problem alone This doesn't have to be solely yours While you lament in privacy Staring up into the night sky Hoping to protect those closest to you You don't have to move forward alone I will be your support through the challenges you face If you call for me, I will come running to your side Together we will be stronger There is no need for you to face anything alone Trying times will always be ahead of you But I will always be there in your time of need Fight on through and never let it bring you down Remember you're never alone Look to me whenever you need You'll never find me too far away I will readily be by your side I always stand by you We can all be troubled from time to time And just like I hope you'll be there for me If I can share with you in anyway Then together we will face it head on I will be your support through the challenges you face If you call for me, I will come running to your side Together we will be stronger There is no need for you to face anything alone Trying times will always be ahead of you But I will always be there in your time of need Fight on through and never let it bring you down Remember you're never alone

Awakening 06:04
You've put our backs to the wall The upper hand appears to be yours Broken us down piece by piece Through numerous trials Options not on our side But I will not back down just now Searching deep inside To find some fight to turn the tide And I can see, the bigger picture now I can feel, the world around me now I can bring, out this strength inside For my time has come, I awaken Previous hardships overcome Have come to strengthen us over time Unlocked new potential Our journey has caused a power to rise The setup we're in now Has ultimately favoured our side After setting off blindly Finally my destiny has come to light For I can see, the bigger picture now I can feel, the world around me now I can bring, out this strength inside For my time has come, I awaken I Awaken I Awaken I Awaken I Awaken I Awaken I Awaken I transcend, for all to see A vision, a greater form of me Push onwards, no more need to hide Nothing will stop me , I awaken I can see, the bigger picture now I can feel, the world around me now I can bring, out this strength inside For my time has come, I awaken

Chaos Rising 05:36
Things are going to change Now is the time for Chaos Welcome to my new dominion I've made a few changes since you were last here Everything is not as it first appears There's a higher level of perceived fear The world is a little more topsy turvy There's little distinction between night and day Things pass a little more randomly now I have a preference for things to be that way A certain disorder is what I seek My amusement is the intent I've little time for cause and effect when there's metaphysical changes to implement Harmony in these parts Has been in place for far too long Chaos makes for a more interesting relationship between the weak and the strong I'm the new reigning king of Chaos Sitting on my throne in my new reformed land You can take me on playing my little games But you will never beat what is in my hand Welcome to life under my tyranny Everywhere you see under my special hex You better get used to the unexpected There's no telling what is coming next Things are going to change Now is the time for Chaos So some of you come here to seek a challenge My power is not something you really want to test Whatever little tricks you may have up your sleeve You're gonna fail just like all the rest So bring it on Hope you can handle a little disorientation All is not as it seems The rules of our engagement may be open to interpretation I've no desire in ending my rule Things have only started to get interesting You'd be a fool to think I'm playing fair It's my game, my rules, I'll decide who's winning I'm the new reigning king of Chaos Sitting on my throne in my new reformed land You can take me on playing my little games But you will never beat what is in my hand Welcome to life under my tyranny Everywhere you see under my special hex You better get used to the unexpected There's no telling what is coming next You don't want to appeal to my conscience And you really don't want to try my patience If you're real threat then you can be sure I'll reach into your soul and change your very nature Your worst traits will be for all to see Hard to band together when your enemies Your only defence is to turn tail and run This is just the beginning of my fun I'm the new reigning king of Chaos Sitting on my throne in my new reformed land You can take me on playing my little games But you will never beat what is in my hand Welcome to life under my tyranny Everywhere you see under my special hex You better get used to the unexpected There's no telling what is coming next Embrace the Chaos

Uprising 06:19
Come soar with me I Will help you to see All is not lost Things can return if you pay the cost You may begin To think how can we win In a land full of sin Where unjust rulers can be kings Divided we lie low Confined to the shadows But there is a chance to fight If we all step into the light A rallying cry Will sound across the sky Our forces will grow Our combined might we will show We stand aligned Brothers and sisters in kind Acting as a whole We will demonstrate out resolve Against the crimson sky Our banners will fly We will not be beaten As we march to freedom We will stand against the odds We will take on your supposive gods Though you may destroy our lives You cannot take away our will to survive We unify behind our one goal To make this land once again whole The message travels far and wide The uprising is nigh We will stand against the odds We will take on your supposive gods Though you may destroy our lives You cannot take away our will to survive We unify behind our one goal To make this land once again whole The message travels far and wide The uprising is nigh We will usher in a new era One that is free of this reign of terror Divided we were forced to hide United we can now turn the tide We unify behind our one goal To make this land once again whole The message travels far and wide The uprising is nigh
