Halcyon Way
Album • 2014
When faced with tribulation You can accept the chains Or proclaim your liberation And see your life regained In clutches of affliction You will feel the strain In agony of separation No words can ever explain... The cords of desolation determined to abrade Second chances handed out Wake up, for you remain You've got to burn it down! Chorus: When your flesh betrays you You've got to rise above When your blood forsakes you This fire will be enough When your cup runs over This is not a drill Prepare for battle You go in for the kill You've got to conquer You've got to burn it down You'll make it suffer You burn it down to the ground You've got to conquer You've got to burn it down You'll make it suffer You burn it down to the ground I know it's cold outside And I've seen the signs These days are all that's left So cling to what you find

With winded souls they seize the day Beaten men will speak in shame To bitter end they seek defeat To crush and tear the weak Pre-Chorus: You speak and the emptiness escapes You speak and you spread your stain You speak and open fire again You speak, but your words are blanks Chorus: Every time that I arise I scale that peak with my mind As you spin the web of your lies (but you won't hold me back!) Every day I start again I will climb and not descend You spin the web of your lies (but you won't hold me back!) With dirty hearts they spread disdain Hollow men with marks of Cain They try to purge their souls of blame Scorch the earth and tap the vein You will - You will not hold me back You will - You will not hold me back

I won't take no for an answer I will not retreat or concede I will embrace the struggle Crushing all that impedes me I will not waste my chances They will not pass me by I will seize the moment Until the day I die Chorus: March through the adversity Break through the walls In torment we're conceived We climb; you crawl In time it'll be revealed We won't take the fall In torment we're conceived We climb, you crawl Born from pain - this is my proclamation! Born from pain - we will not be denied! You can never stop me I will not be denied As the sun will rise tomorrow And the certainty of tides This is my proclamation! We will not be denied! Born from pain Conceived in torment In faith and flames With blistered hands we engage

Is this the end of the moment Of which you're tethered to? Broken dreams, out of focus Is this what's left of you? In the camera eye you're drifting Your will is severed through It's not enough, you fade to memory It's not enough to crown the fool Chorus: My home I run to Where all my dreams were born (all my dreams were born) I hope I find it Before I lose my faith Bloodshot eyes and weary whispers Become your trademark form Conquered mind with no spark Is this what's left of you? The fool with scorn is crowned in worship The fires once burned bright are dim It's not enough, you fade to memory It's not enough, you're crowned a fool When the path is washed away Into a crowd of weary souls Hearts of stone, the truth untold Fools crowned in worship When the path is washed away Into a crowd of weary souls Hearts of stone, the truth untold Fools crowned in worship and scorn

You're drawn to conflict And destined to fade Grasping insignificance The deal is made Leave the world hanging Wait for the sun to rise Or is the sun setting On your lack of compromise? Face your desolation Sing your revelation Chorus: Once you were heaven sent but I see what you've become Now watch in terror as your world comes undone Slave to your master like a drug you can't resist You invite disaster and your world comes undone You dream of power Over minds and men You invite the fracture Like a moth to the flame again Spewing out your failure Trapped in your maze again Sing your revelation Scream it out from within Waiting on the sun to chase away the night Searching but afraid to see what's in the light Your mind is not your own Controlled by those you know Like a puppet on a string Or is it a noose from which you swing? Face your desolation Sing your revelation

Unto this conviction Unto this state of mind Unto this decision A new kingdom will arise Pre-Chorus: In force we move ahead With steel in our spine We will forsake these times Which seek to destroy our lives Chorus: Militant - Where there is will, there's strength Militant - I've come to realize the path is straight Militant - Where there is will, there's strength Militant - I've come to realize... you are the one! Warlike - No peace Militant, we shall be unleashed When there is attrition When there is only one When there is recognition You will embrace the gun

You think that I'm a fool Cause I speak my mind But you're not fooling me Use your weakness as a crutch For everyone to see Look deep inside yourself Gaze in the mirror and you'll see Why I hate you so openly (hate in one hand, fist for the other) Chorus: Hatred is my cause Through the flames I carry on When the ravens fly Your kingdom will crumble Hatred is my cause Through the flames I carry on When the ravens fly Your kingdom will crumble down I'm not sorry that I called you out Or made you cry and weep Your life's a tragic game A sad story Never been the one to cast a stone But baby that's lust me Cause I hate you so openly (hate in one hand, fist for the other) I am the underdog with fangs out I am the underdog

There is strength in numbers In this world the count is one Seize all the days you're given Where the wounded souls are lifted up In our hearts we seek out heaven With our wings we fly above We deny the reasons given Which keep our souls bottled up Chorus: So consume the poisoned apple Eat from the tree Repair the broken dreams Offer up the failed promises I'm broken and sorry Sacrifice your everything When hands shake and shiver When our fears prove too much When our minds are pushed to the limit Our wounded souls are lifted up You've got to stay alive You've got to stay awake This is your do or die and this is the choice you make You've got to realize There is a price you pay Cause if you wave the flag then it'll be your last mistake Anything to kill the pain A bitter pill to feed the dream Sometimes the poison is the cure So eat from the tree

You revel in your misery Bathe in the sympathy You long for attention In your tragic comedy Pre-Chorus: Beg for intervention A vow of tragedy Sell us your infection Spreading your disease! Chorus: Save your tears for another day Sell it to the world but I won't pay Save your tears for another day The parody concludes and we clear the slate Save your tears - save it for another day Save your tears - save it for another day Enveloped in self loathing Adorned in gilded pain Brainwashed for a purpose In dissonance you reign

In weakness you assert your strength In blindness you see the way Of desolation you sow the seeds You will harvest them in vain Pre-Chorus: Teach them with your fists The future repeats today Hide your violent struggles Instruct them on your pain Chorus: You wrap yourself in sorrow You shelter from the shame You - you're the king of ruin On your throne of pain In bleakness you, you project your shame Reassessing you, you shift the blame In damnation, terror displayed You will gather in the flames You could wrap yourself in sorrow You could take shelter in your shame We could crown you king of ruin You can sit on your throne as the king of pain

With every breath some strive to control With every thought some plot to escape With every fear we fail to hold Small deaths suffered every day Pre-Chorus: You try to tamp it down You have to stomp it out They fight, they speak, they will not listen They want to tear it down They want to burn it out You look away and then dismiss them Chorus: What is this that we have done? Empowered the feeble man Eviscerate the morning sun Embrace of the new day to come What is this that we have done? We feast on the ashes of man Obliterate what you've become And wait on the new day to come Some blame the ones who call the shots Some blame the ones with hands held out We've lost grip on reality And the way we used to be Hate - Lust - Take Eviscerate the morning sun
