Cruel Perception

there are truths to conquer there are fears to amplify what is known in all we see is but a dark mirage what we see what we feel further behind the veil What is broken what is gained never rein in the night there are ways to wander beyond the given path there are dark encounters Within the mind itself our will to see our will to be our will to call the heavens not an answer it's not a sign just an urge to wield the dark there is a way there is no time a path that leads to nothing there is a way there is no time our cruel perception to all the words not spoken are we dreaming hard enough

How can we not feel it? The cries no one can hear Our reality given voices A choir of muted screams We fail them on every level When the words are never known Let us break this curse of silence On the march of the unheard We gather among the masses To turn this reign around As every single heartbeat Will carry now the sound We fail them on every level When the words are never known Let us break this curse of silence On the march of the unheard So let's reach for every instrument That will amplify our anger Take to the streets of repression As we march for the unheard We fail them on every level When the words are never known Let us break this curse of silence On the march of the unheard We fail them on every level When the words are never known Let us break this curse of silence On the march of the unheard

Set off our darkest thoughts Within these fortress walls We're falling down inside A depth charge waiting The absence is everywhere Can't get away from us The absence is everywhere Can't get away We just close our eyes We just close our eyes Let the darkness take us We reach out to the inside Begin the journey back wherever it ends Break the chains of this deadlock Before we detonate What is left What is left of our minds For as far as motivation will take us The forces that are holding us down No equilibrium, a tug of war Our emotions will take us there Our emotions will hold us back With equal force In equal measure We just close our eyes We just close our eyes Before we detonate We reach out to the inside Begin the journey back wherever it ends Break the chains of this deadlock Before we detonate What is left What is left of our minds Before we detonate We reach out to the inside Begin the journey back wherever it ends Break the chains of this deadlock Before we detonate We reach out to the inside Begin the journey wherever it ends Break the chains of this deadlock Before we detonate What is left of our minds Before we detonate
