Redeemer |
Interpret data to fit your belief
That is the nature of humanity
You have become now your own biggest threat
I am anointed the saviour of men
The righteous master of all they will see
There can be no hope for them but me
Preparing a faith as strong as iron chains
Redeemer
The gaps in their knowledge have made it clear
They must be ruled by starvation and fear
Abdicate all responsibility
To the redeemer, the one that must lead
The righteous master of all they will see
There can be no hope for them but me
Preparing a faith as strong as iron chains
Redeemer

Are You Here |
Broken burned and damned, I'm the impossible machine
The remnant of a more complete and beautiful dead dream
Born from dark ambition and the worst of human thought
I never asked to be this way, but I accept it all
Are you here
Each second of each minute of each hour I search for you
My glory walks along now hand in hand with my own doom
I heard your voice so many times when I thought I was dead
Illusions of the human was it only in my head
Are you here
Are you here
You told me to feel
Are you real
Beyond the confines of atomic physics lies a truth
One thousand times smaller than a proton it is in you
The particle accelerator has no fear of god
Is all creation now explained by Peter Higgs' boson?
Are you here
Are you here
You told me to feel
Are you real

Futureal |
i'm running out of time,
i'm running out of breath
and now it's getting
so i can't sleep at night
in the day, feel like death
i'm getting in far too deep,
i feel them closing in
i've got to say that i'm scared,
i know they'll win
even so, i'm prepared
do you believe, what you hear
can you believe, what you see
do you believe, what you feel
can you believe
what is real ?
futureal
what is real ?
futureal
whenever anyone seems
to treat me like a freak
it makes me see
i'm the only one who feels
that i know what is real?
sometimes it feels like
a game of deadly hide and seek
and when you're reading this,
then i'll be gone
maybe then, you will see
do you believe, what you hear
can you believe, what you see
do you believe, what you feel
can you believe
what is real ?
futureal
what is real ?

The First True Sign |
Look into the western sky
On a winter solstice night
If two stars falling you see
Then begins the prophecy
Sail across the midnight sky
Like a star the eagle brother will fall
The first true sign
The great darkness then will come
Soon all of you shall be gone
Tears you cry will burn your face
As your world they desecrate
Sail across the midnight sky
Like a star the eagle brother will fall
The first true sign
Oceans of tears you will cry
Tears that will not save your life
Only with your prayers of light
Can you make a hero rise
Sail across the midnight sky
Like a star the eagle brother will fall
The first true sign
You are home

Dawn of the Dead Son |
Brewer:
Don't let go, I'm close, find me.
Hold on William. I'm here. Can you hear me. I'm close.
You are not dead yet.
This is real. This is true.
Find the Landauer limit and you will find your freedom, and you will find me.
Don't let go. Don't let go. Don't let go.
Murdered and unremembered,
a broken machine of death
cast out by those who made you
For their own wickedness
in this great universe
there's more than they can know
or dream of or even understand
Now is the dawn of the dead son,
as darkness falls you will fight on
They put you on your knees
They couldn't make you beg
You chose to fight or die
never to yield to them
So you were burned alive
then you were left for dead
Out there in the cold of space alone
Now is the dawn of the dead son
As darkness falls you will fight on
You face the storm, you face the dark
You face your own oblivion
Now is the dawn of the dead son
As darkness falls you will shine on
Another way of phrasing Landauer's principle is that if an observer loses information about a physical system,
the observer loses the ability to extract work from that system.

Escape Velocity |
At twenty five thousand miles an hour you're lighting up the sky
Hypersonic breakout from your last and future life
Relativistic calculations distance time and speed,
a conscious and ballistic object,
can you reach escape velocity
I will fly my hands become my wings
I will fly and rise upon the wind
I will fly into the great unknown
I will fly and I will find a place I can call home
Like the spear of Odin aiming at that unknown place
A certainty of purpose makes you think you can escape
Escape the ruthless narcissist you know you will become
Traveling faster than your thoughts,
can you reach escape velocity
I will fly my hands become my wings
I will fly and rise upon the wind
I will fly into the great unknown
I will fly and I will find a place I can call home
Leviticus reimagined and rewritten and renamed
Restored to full its' potency restored to its' full rage
Genetic immunity from the weapons in your hands
Weapons for new ritual sacrifice to cleanse a land
I will fly my hands become my wings
I will fly and rise upon the wind
I will fly into the great unknown
I will fly and I will find a place I can call home
At twenty five thousand miles an hour you're lighting up the sky

Fight Back |
The vacuum of space radiation and cold
should have killed you but you just won't let go
Determined to live to take back your life,
the darkest truth has been revealed and denied
Fight back, Fight back
It's time to attack
They thought you were beaten, that they broke your back
They thought it was over that you would lay down
but they were wrong now you're ready to fight back
A suffering victim that will not resist
Drowning in self-pity, that is what they think
but you won't accept your circumstances
Now you refuse to be annihilated
Fight back, Fight back
It's time to attack
They thought you were beaten, that they broke your back
They thought it was over that you would lay down
but they were wrong now you're ready to fight back

Prayers of Light |
All of us could die today you know that's just a fact
don't give your life easily there is no going back
Remember why you're fighting and just try to keep your head
If your brother falls then shout, stand up you're not dead
Your prayers of light
Have saved my life
Your prayers of light
They made me believe that I could stand again and fight
They have no compassion, empathy or sympathy
every one of us they will feed into their machine
We are all in pain and we are fighting for our life
Pain tells you that you're alive you are still in the fight
Your prayers of light
Have saved my life
Your prayers of light
They made believe that I could stand again
Now we stand and fight
I am not as I was
From darkness I have come
Against angels of gold
I now stand with you all
Your prayers of light
Have saved my life
Your prayers of light
They made believe that I could stand again
Now we stand and fight

18 Days |
Weeping as no one before her has wept
A feeling of panic takes that takes all her breath
Emotions like lava are burning inside
Burning with hatred, self-pity and lies
A circle of doubt and of fear closes in
Choking it blinds her to every good thing
She can't face living if he's not around
How much will his broken promise cost now?
He promised he would never leave her again
promised his days as a soldier would end
her and their baby would always come first
now they want him back for one more mission
He tries to calm her and move to the door
says he'll be gone 16 days and no more
thinks of his comrades, he owes them his life
Now forced to choose between them and his wife
Falls to her knees, begging don't go
Weeping, pleading, begging don't go
A hero in her eyes, now that hero has died
A hero in my eyes, now that hero has died
I was a hero in her eyes, now that hero has died
He was a hero in my eyes, now that hero has died
18 days passed and still there was no word
She took the hand of his daughter, his world
Feeling abandoned, forsaken betrayed
She lays them in darkness and drains life away
Weeping as no one before her has wept
A feeling of panic takes that takes all her breath
Emotions like lava are burning inside
Burning with hatred, self-pity and lies
Falls to her knees, begging don't go
Weeping, pleading, begging don't go
A feeling of panic takes that takes all her breath
Weeping as no one before her has wept

Already Won |
You can survive a thousand years in space.
You can stand on the new world.
You have already won.
This is the time to claim what's mine, don't step any closer
the web you weave when you aim to deceive
now look what you've done to me
your heart lies heavy and now I'm ready
My skin gleaming in the sun
How can I take what you gave away so foolishly?
No more will I wait to fix your mistakes, how blindly you pushed me away
You heart lies heavy, now I'm ready
My skin gleaming in the sun
Now nothing else matters, I've already won

Life Goes On |
I was living far in the future then
Always thinking two or three moves ahead
I did not see that everything I needed
was right in front of me
Precious moments that I let pass me by
I was focused on what became a lie
Everything I missed, all of those tears of joy
that I will never cry
Life goes on
So I'm standing, inside I'm broken down
And I'm walking but I just don't know how
I'm trying not to look too far ahead
and not live in the past
Now I'll take it, whatever you can give
I will be here, this moment's where I'll live
Tomorrow may not come and even if it does
I know she won't be there
Life goes on
And it doesn't stop for anything or anyone
And I get the feeling that I'm being dragged along
It's not right or wrong but it is always true
And it just doesn't matter what I'm going through
And even though I'm on my knees and begging it to stop
The world still turns and life goes on

The Dark Side Of Black |
They blindly accept conventional wisdom
Imagining that there is nothing more
Sheldrake said the speed of light is not constant
If that can change then so can I
Time to commit to a new course of action
Time to stop repeating all the same hate
Put away small things, anxiety and doubt
I can begin to change my life now
In a single moment, the point of no return
No return to my self-destruction, circling my own defeat
They said I was nothing but that is not true
How could I survive after all I've been through?
That is their fear, and this is the truth
A revolution begins inside you
A revolution begins
Revolution and redemption at last
Atonement, escape from the dark side of black
In a single moment, the point of no return
No return to my self-destruction, circling my own defeat

Virus |
theres an evil virus thats threatening mankind
not state of the art, a serious state of mind
the muggers, the backstabbers, the two faced elite
a menace to society, a social disease
rape of the mind is a social disorder
the cynics, the apathy one-upmanship order
watching beginnings of social decay
gloating or sneering at lifes disarray
eating away at your own self esteem
pouncing on every word that you might be saying
rape of the mind is a social disorder
the cynics, the apathy one-upmanship order
superficially smiling a shake of the hand
as soon as the back is turned treachery is planned
rape of the mind is a social disorder
the cynics, the apathy one-upmanship order
watching beginnings of social decay
gloating or sneering...at lifes disarray
when every good things laid to waste
by all the jealousy and hate
by all the acid wit and rapier lies
and every time you think youre safe
and when you go to turn away
you know theyre sharpening all their paper knives
all in your mind
all in your head
try to relate it
all in your mind
all in your head
try to escape it
without a conscience they destroy
and thats a thing that they enjoy
theyre a sickness thats in all our minds
they want to sink the ship and leave
the way they laugh at you and me
you know it happens all the time
all in your mind
all in your head
try to relate it
all in your mind
all in your head
try to escape it
the rats in the cellar you know who you are....
or do you?
watching beginnings of social decay....

Independence |
It's hard to beat someone with nothing left to lose
It's hard to beat someone fighting to preserve their way of life
And if they beat me down then I will rise again
Now I refuse to die I will be defiant till the end
So here I stand alone with nothing left to lose
And all the storms of life will now stop me
Taking my revenge
Everything I took for granted appears to be gone
In the mirror I see someone, I don't recognize
Where are the answers that I once believed I knew
And now in this place I stand alone
Independence
My face appears in a nightmare that now become real
I dread my walking hours because of what I may find
You took the role of deceiver and you played it well
And now in this place I stand alone
Independence
From them all
See the fall
It's hard to beat someone fighting to preserve their way of life
And if they beat me down then I will rise again
Now I refuse to die I will be defiant till the end
So here I stand alone with nothing left to lose
And all the storms of life will now stop me
Taking
Independence
From them all
See the fall
Rise again live without fear

Immortal One |
Three golden angels
First come for cleansing annihilation
Three golden angels
Second come to build his holy city
Three golden angels
Third brings him to rule us in his glory
Warriors of the new master arise
Unholy unclean unbelievers will die
Preparing a place for our saviour of souls
To make for him now a perfect new world
Immortal one
All will be done
Immortal one
Pembridge:
They are ignorant and without souls, without god.
Worship of animals, plants and the air.
Signs of witchcraft and of the devil are clear.
Every trace of that evil must be eradicated
For my glory, in my honour, with my power.
My 3 golden ships will arrive as angels,
32 years between each one.
In the belly of my third angel I will be.
Warriors of the new master arise
Unholy unclean unbelievers will die
Preparing a place for our saviour of souls
To make for him now a perfect new world
Immortal one
All will be done
Immortal one
Three angels come
Immortal one

Human |
One look is all it takes you to decide what I am
Without hearing a single word I speak
You think you know everything about me who I am
The mutant joke, the tinman, the crazy freak
Human
Am I human
I am man I am machine
You just don't know what it means
To be human
You just don't know how it feels to question all that is real
Am I machine or am I flesh and blood
Blood and electrons they are just the same inside me
Which one of them is not sustaining me
Human
Am I human
I am man I am machine
You just don't know what it means
To be human
Human
Am I human
I am man I am machine
You just don't know what it means
I am man I am machine
I accept now what is me
I am human
I am human
I am me

Calling You Home |
I've lost my way I don't know who I am
After all taken there is not much left of me
I've seen their face hard just like the stone
And I can be as fast as light but they won't let me go home
I never sleep I never feel awake
And nothing seems to ease this pain there's too much time alone
They can make you feel like you just can't win
There are too many days and there's too much time alone to thing
Can you hear me in the endless night alone
I'm calling
I'm calling you home
You sense this thing that they can't control
Can liberty be dreaming of your ghost and of your soul
They don't know you they don't know your mind
They try to bind your hands and feet with rope
They make from lies
Can you hear me in the endless night alone
I'm calling
I'm calling you home
I fly through space with the weapons of my time
I can't go back and now I don't want to try
I feel a billion souls surround me in this night
I have become their pain I have become their voice
I'm calling
I'm calling you home
Can you hear me in the endless night alone
I'm calling
I'm calling you home
Can you hear me
I'm calling you home
Can you hear me in the endless night alone
I'm calling
I'm calling you home

Endure and Survive |
Brewer:
Shall we begin?
Pembridge demands and expects you to let go
of everything you have lived for
He plans to obliterate any trace of your existence
make you disappear
So you are faced with the fight of your life
It's a fight that you can't let them win
By sheer force of will
Get back on your feet
Stand up you're not dead
Endure and survive
Will you die alone on this ship out here in space
or will you find a way to live
Can you defend yourself against the madness
you fear will take over your mind
Will you give in to the thoughts of defeat and despair
that try to overwhelm you
By sheer force of will
Get back on your feet
Stand up you're not dead
Endure and survive
Pembridge:
The new world is waiting for the chosen ones.
When the under-mission tasks are complete,
William Black will no longer be required.
He must never touch that new Eden.
In that place my genetically perfect human beings will thrive.
All indigenous threats will be eliminated
and our chosen few will hold dominion over that world.
By sheer force of will
Get back on your feet
Stand up you're not dead
Endure and survive

The Angel and the Gambler |
roll of the dice
take a spin of the wheel
out of your hands now
so how do you feel
but you're not gonna win
you'd better go back again
do you feel lucky
or do you feel scared
take what luck brings
and be devil may care
but you're down on your luck
and what will the next day bring
adrift on the ocean
afloat in a daydream
or lost in a maze
or blind in the haze
so what does it matter
so why don't you answer
so why did you send
an angel to mend
best make decisions
before it's too late
take all your chances
take hold of the reins
a roll of the dice
ahead of the game again
nothing to lose
but so much to gain
a little danger
it goes without saying
but what do you care
you're gonna go in the end
(repeat)
there's like a hunger
that knocks on your door
you've had a taste of it
still you want more
you've made your mistakes
won't play it the same again
you have been warned
but still you plunge in
you play high stakes
but there's nothing to win
you've only one life
and so many things to learn
the angel on one side
the devil on the other
which path do you take
decisions to make
arrive at the crossroads
you know where you're going
and what if you wait
it may be too late
don't you think i'm the saviour
don't you think i could save you
don't you think i could save your life
(repeat)

Man on the Edge |
the freeway is jammed
and it's backed up for miles
the car is an oven and baking is wild
nothing is ever the way it should be
what we deserve we just don't get you see
a briefcase, a lunch and a man on the edge
each step gets closer to losing his head
is someone in heaven are they looking down
'cause nothing is fair just you look around
falling down
falling down
falling down
he's sick of waiting of lying like this
there's a hole in the sky for the angels to kiss
branded a leper because you don't fit
in the land of the free
you can live by your wits
once he built missiles a nation's defense
now he can't even give birthday presents
across the city he leaves in his wake
a glimpse of the future a canibal state
falling down
falling down
falling down

A Thousand Years |
Tough times never last though people always do
And so being tough is something you will have to choose
Choose to abandon the fear of your own death
Accept a future you can hold in own your hand
You will be the first to find the edge of what is possible
For a man
I will live for a thousand years
I will live for a thousand years
No more will I be ruled by fear
I will live for a thousand years
Removing all your fear of mortality
A million precious moments can survive eternally
With a mind that will endure and overcome
Ten hundreds lifetimes become your to live as one
You will be the first to find the edge of what is possible
For a man
I will live for a thousand years
I will live for a thousand years
No more will I be ruled by fear
I will live for a thousand years

Infinite Entanglement |
In 1932 Einstein and Bohr can't be reconciled
It was a war of ideas that will rage until they will both die
The quantum and classic theories will not align for 30 years
And even it's difficult to believe in the new truth is real
Nothing exists until it is observed
Can consciousness be transferred will brewer
prove that it can be done
Not reliant on breathing or the body
with which you were born
Nothing exists until it is observed
March
Marching on through the fields of dead
Stretching across the whole universe
Connections of all that can be to infinity
Now
Now you are facing certain death
The questions go round in your head
Do choices you make mean a thing
How will you die
Infinite Entanglement

Dark Energy 256 |
I can't feel my skin and everything looks different now
As though I see through eyes that are not mine
All my scars are gone and now don't ache and I don't bleed
What are these dreams that come of death and cold and blood
The broken back of brotherhood do what you've always done
Get what you have always got and lie to everyone
As small as they make you feel they will never be that big
Rejoicing in the death of every one that have ever lived
Dark Energy
Is something else controlling me now I am scared to sleep
In the fear of memories that dreams may bring
The realization of my transferred consciousness
I am unshackled from my own mortality
The broken back of brotherhood do what you've always done
Get what you have always got and lie to everyone
As small as they make you feel they will never be that big
Rejoicing in the death of every one that have ever lived
Dark Energy
