Hope for the Dying
Album • 2013
Stand tall, we are surrounded by hatred Left to defend our rights and wrongs We're segregated to other worlds Classified as the blind We are part of the living breathing And we are not the only ones We are more than self-righteous patrons And we are not the only ones Shattered, we must pick up the pieces Misrepresented and libeled Decorated with shame I am appalled At the animosity we have created I am appalled Look at all we have become Look at all we have become We are part of the living breathing And we are not the only ones We are more than self-righteous patrons And we are not the only ones

Light the torches Begin the gathering Lift up your voice We will be heard We will be heard March we as one The reformation has begun Across the face of the earth No mountain too tall Until our last breath escapes our lips we will not falter March we as one The reformation has begun Our hands have been trained for war Our fingers prepared prepared for battle Our shield and fortress our fortress be known Our only stronghold and our deliverer March we as one The reformation has begun March we as one The reformation has begun Go ignite the fires The eyes of the universe Have never seen Lift up the signs The signs of tomorrow Behold a message Soon to be known The heavens may fall And the earth melt around us But we will continue Marching on The reformation has begun

I feel the rise of the fires as we prepare to go down in flames The final shreds of humanity are hanging by a thread Lost in our insurrection we claim to know the way While our supposed ministries only seek, only seek further acclaim I am disgusted... You only spread your delusions I am depleted by the sickness you convey Falsify and mock the only chance you have for redemption Bend and mold the Word, until it meets your necessity Flood us with your gimmicks and pretentious lines Until you almost believe the lies yourself Prey on the naive and profit from their generosity Form a line and pass around your hat like you deserve a single cent No, we won't, we won't stand, stand for this any longer We won't, we won't stand by and watch you destroy us all We won't watch you destroy us The time for formalities is gone And now, your profiteering will come to an end

I walked alone Alone I walked alone Alone The ever approaching horizon My endless friend and tormentor My battered skin betrays my convictions My destination still unknown I walked alone How I long for rest And for the sake of my weary eyes I am the barren traveler I am the wayward son I am the faithless warrior I am the abandoned one The ever approaching horizon My endless friend and tormentor My battered skin betrays my convictions My destination still unknown Oh! Lift me up! Oh! Lift me up! And carrie me, carrie me home I no longer, I no longer wish to walk alone For so long, I thought I'd walked alone You were there, You were there all along You were there, You were there all along I never walked, never walked alone I never walked alone I never walked alone I never walked alone You carried me

This track is instrumental.
I've seen the lost tread the fiery path towards no tomorrow And I've watched the dead burn a generation to the ground I saw them burn it down, watched them burn it down Breathing the smoke as it arrives Fire reflecting in their eyes And as the flames slowly burn away any revocation We face the last chance to turn away from these fallen times This is our time to rise We stand by our delusions We rest in our denial Who will rise Who will rise We can't ignore the writing on the walls Can't ignore the writing on the walls And as the ash begins to fall With final judgment on us all Nothing left but silence now Time to reconcile our doubts We stand by our delusions We rest in our denial Who will rise Who will rise [x2]

I wake from sleep: another morning like any other. Unaware of the events, I am destined to witness As I fall to the ground and destruction surrounds me. I am blinded. I am deafened by the blow. Oh, how was I to know? I wipe the dust from my eyes And through the haze, The barren ground where a city used to stand. As smoke makes way for suffering, Can I believe what I am seeing? Is there nothing left at all? Oh, how the earth is laid to waste by the touch of your hand. I have walked the streets looking for someone. Searching for something and I have only found Nothing is left for me, nothing here is left for me at all. The stars lose their shine While nothing but darkness encloses the sky. Then I begin to see a light in the distance that is calling for me. Oh, how the earth is laid to waste by the touch of your hand.

Let me cover you Find a way home Feel me cover you We aren't alone Let me cover you Find a way home Feel me over you We aren't alone

Thousands weep in vain Did we depend On what we didn't know For our survival Broken we have turned Scattered by the world Resting in ourselves For our salvation No, is this really true? Could we have failed? Is this our final chance To fully surrender? Let the light surround us Let our hearts be torn Let our pride fall Let our voices be heard I surrender all Eyes to the sky we've lost our faith with our face to the earth We left our dependence within, can we begin again Devoid of masters I fared better on my own We spend our days waiting for the sun to rise again Bringing us the answers to our faults Can we forfeit our thoughts and our desperate need for more Can we surrender Can we surrender Can we surrender Let it go, let it fall, all I have gone All of the earth can fade Lifting my hands I fall Nothing can butt my heart I will let it go Forfeit all I'll ever become Standing empty waiting to be filled With the essence of God Close up the earth, command my butts Let the rain fall, the water pouring down Flood all the rivers, the oceans overflow Open up the sky, open up the sky.
