Encircled |
[Verse 1]
I see myself in the bodies being carried out
I see myself in you when safety falls again
It broke something essential like nothing ever would
A promise to give, a promise to hold
[Chorus]
This is not what I want you to hear right now
But our time is running out
So far removed from what you need to know
Words too hard to handle
Our time is running out
We're by demons encircled
[Verse 2]
Eroding away at reason
The bile of insecurity
This fear devoid of nuance
And fact resistant belief
I hold together what I can
I hold together what I know
[Chorus]
This is not what I want you to hear right now
But our time is running out
So far removed from what you need to know
Words too hard to handle
Our time is running out
We're by demons encircled
[Bridge]
These are just symptoms of experience and life
I wish I could postpone
[Verse 3]
It eats at our logic like nothing ever should
It claws at our humanity so that nothing can remain
This is the currency of faith and we are coming up short
The reality of failure, now upon us
[Chorus]
This is not what I want you to hear right now
But our time is running out
So far removed from what you need to know
Words too hard to handle
Our time is running out
We're by demons encircled

Atoma |
I will not play along
With things I find unfair
I will not mount defences
Against unjust attacks
This land was never given
We built this on our own
Insanity dependant
Whether we rise or fall
Whether we rise or we fall
One for the night, one for uncontrolled
Hold your feet to the ground
To the end of our time
For the rest of our lives
Hold your head on high
To the end of our time
For the rest of our lives
Secretly I hope
That nothing ever comes of this
And you are not alone
Wanting to come back
To a place where it wonât matter
Just what side youâre on
Itâs when our lines are graded
Whatâs underneath will overcome
Whatâs underneath will overcome
One for the night, one for the uncontrolled
Hold your feet to the ground
To the end of our time
For the rest of our lives
Hold your head on high
To the end of our time
For the rest of our lives
Now itâs time to stand up tall
One for the night, one for the uncontrolled
Hold your feet to the ground
To the end of our time
For the rest of our lives
Hold your head on high
To the end of our time
For the rest of our lives

Forward momentum |
[Verse 1]
We're worried about echoes
And why we're being held-back
Bound at the speed of light
[Chorus]
This is the time
Of no regret
In a forward momentum race
We leave in our wake
What is broken, forgotten and gone
[Verse 2]
I squint my eyes
As if to make my sight extend
A little further
[Chorus]
This is the time
Of no regret
In a forward momentum race
We leave in our wake
What is broken and forgotten
[Bridge]
The dream is nothing
Yet it drives us to the end
These words unforce our hand
Hold on, hold on
[Verse 3]
In fear of true deception
Our lives are being brought-back
Brought back down
[Chorus]
This is the time
Of no regret
In a forward momentum race
We leave in our wake
What is broken and forgotten

Neutrality |
[Verse 1]
Much like the tension built between force and will
Stray voltage wanders from neutral to earth
Lest we forget to forgive the signals get crossed
These two grounded objects on the opposite side of
Right or wrong where empathy was once
Is not the end - this is the reasoning
[Chorus]
I call you out so take it once and for all
The weight of the world on you
I call you out to claim neutrality
[Verse 2]
We failed our own reality on reality's terms
The less we know the more we forge
What suits our single-minded goals
It all comes down to this
A reverse polarity
In opposites we see what unity must be
Forever taking down the man-made walls of strife
Forever taking them down
[Chorus]
I call you out so take it once and for all
The weight of the world on you
I call you out to be accountable today tomorrow
I call you out
[Verse 3]
There's nothing like the friction sound
The slow burn of prolonged frustation
Wearing down the jagged edges
To fit within the margins
The fires spread throughout the night
It must now go down to where it can begin
Inside out I call you
[Chorus]
I call you out so take it once and for all
The weight of the world on you
I call you out to claim neutrality
I call you out to be accountable today tomorrow

Force of hand |
[Verse 1]
This is not a failure, this is not an end
These are just symptoms of a trajectory descent
Further down the line you hide from the memories of unresolve
The struggle is lost
All this time of knowing
Letting piece by piece slip away
Cause when they're all against you
You fail
[Chorus]
Don't you force my hand
Don't you force me
Don't you force my hand
[Verse 2]
When the silence has spoken in his imminent storm
Taken to the nth degree where failure forms
Spiralling deception
Left the mindless drifting away
Cause when they're out to get you
You fail
[Chorus]
Don't you force my hand
Don't you force me
Don't you force my hand
[Verse 3]
All this time ends in nothing
These walls of doubt built into our minds
All this time signifying something
A victim without circumstance
All this time of knowing
Letting piece by piece slip away
Cause when they're all against you
You fail
[Chorus]
Don't you force my hand
Don't you force me
Don't you force my hand

Faithless by default |
[Verse 1]
To ends unknown by means unworthy
To answer wishes, long dead and gone
Old empty promises, a just reward for the blind
Belief makes work for idle minds, we lost our way
[Pre-Chorus]
The only dream that matters is the one you wake up from
Go
[Chorus]
Onward to the singularity
Whatever they say, whatever they do just go
Turn on this unentity
Whatever they say, whatever they do just go
We are faithless by default (2x)
[Verse 2]
I call for a world where we are nothing
More than the sum of what we know
Are we to be geld hostage
By our tolerance for the intolerant
Then we've lost our way (2x)
[Pre-Chorus]
To hope is to surrender in this series of defeats
[Chorus]
Onward to the singularity
Whatever they say, whatever they do just go
Turn on this unentity
Whatever they say, whatever they do just go
We are faithless by default (2x)
A pain far too familiar
Denounce your savage self
Go
[Chorus]
Onward to the singularity
Whatever they say, whatever they do just go
Turn on this unentity
Whatever they say, whatever they do just go
We are faithless by default (2x)
Faithless by default

The pitiless |
Right now!
Right here!
We stand alone!
Against pitiless indifference
We stand alone!
Forever confounded
By the burning margins
To get without context
When into denial
Give in to ignorance
When the world responds in kind
Put an end to the search
And nullify the sense of life
Alone in silence!
Yes I am frightened and so are you
Against pitiless indifference
We stand alone!
Against the ever coming night!
So we step back
To reveal a new perspective
When the allure of our gift is worn off
Not the least be curios
When giants steps away
No going back
Our time is running out
Alone in silence!
Yes I am frightened and so are you
Against pitiless indifference
We stand alone!
Must we resort
To the end of our inquiry
For this to make sense?
This to make sense!
Right here!
Right now!
We stand alone!
Give up or recount them
The days of your life
The truth was of essence
When time was alive
There is no incentive to
Give in to the absurd
Reality and comfort
Live forever to oppose
Forever opposed!
Alone in silence!
Yes I am frightened and so are you
Against pitiless indifference
We stand alone!

Our proof of life |
[Verse 1]
At a certain point it happens
Life becomes to real
And nothing can hold back
What is about to be
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know how close we need to get
To blind out the surroundings and focus on the real
[Chorus]
I know you're gone
But this reality is crashing down on me
Crashing down to defeat all purpose
I know you're gone
I'm just not ready I'm just not done
I am ever in resistant disbelief
[Verse 2]
When raw emotion gets in
The way of our throughts and words
We pass so far beyond our breaking point
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know how far we need to be
From all that we don't want to see
To regain perspective
[Chorus]
I know you're gone
But this reality is crashing down on me
Crashing down to defeat all purpose
I know you're gone
I'm just not ready I'm just not done
I am ever in resistant disbelief
[Bridge]
I know, yet I fail to find purpose and form
I know, but the truth just makes it harder
[Chorus]
I know you're gone
But this reality is crashing down on me
Crashing down to defeat all purpose
I know you're gone
I'm just not ready I'm just not done
I am ever in resistant disbelief

Clearing skies |
[Verse 1]
Our backs can never carry these atrocities around
So we focus on what's safely within reach to market our concerns
Inside this time and place, there is nothing more you can be to me
Bring out your fear, bring out your death, bring out your pain
[Pre-Chorus]
For now we lie, we lie to ourselves to live
Sorrow will find you
[Chorus]
You're the only one who knows things I never say
And nothing can be done 'til skies are clear again
These are things we never talk about
So hear me out this time
I know one day this sorrow will find you
[Verse 2]
Let your heroes burn their crowns, you're better than this I know
This world can change the best of us
Sometimes for the worst
Sometimes for the ones we try to hold
The ones we hold on to
Bring out yout fear, bring out your death
[Pre-Chorus]
For now we lie, we lie to ourselves to live
Sorrow will find you
[Chorus]
You're the only one who knows things I never say
And nothing can be done 'til skies are clear again
These are things we never talk about
So hear me out this time
I know one day this sorrow will find you

When the world screams |
[Verse 1]
Let the weakness set in this world I know
Days cannot hold me, I blur in between
Never fully engaged, the mind races between words
As far as I can get, away from it all
[Pre-Chorus]
When indecision ends can life begin again
[Chorus]
I am silence when the world screams out
I am escape when you reach out to me
I am panic
I am fear behind these walls that protect me
I am failure and resistance
I am lost where I belong
I am silence when the world screams
[Verse 2]
My insecurity extends to others talking about themselves
Fed with this poison of self righteous false confidence
It's in their eyes, it's in our lives
Set to the tune of darkness, this is one to hold
I cannot stop insanity from chasing down my thoughts
Linger in the mind for what now seems indefinite time
My mind is holding me down
[Pre-Chorus]
When indecision ends can life begin again
[Chorus]
I am silence when the world screams out
I am escape when you reach out to me
I am panic
I am fear behind these walls that protect me
I am failure and resistance
I am lost where I belong
I am silence when the world screams

Merciless fate |
[Verse 1]
What if this image was taken
In an instant erased from the world
What if the truth is too far
And you reality can't cope with the distance
In the abstract a mind never challenged
Is the bearer of merciless fate
[Chorus]
All you can feel is the loss of who you are
By force or by fire, by force or by flame
All you will know is the void of emptiness
By force or the flame 'til reason prevails
[Verse 2]
When the doubt starts to creep in your mind
And subverts the true cause of your ways
You must remain a witness of merciless fate
[Chorus]
All you can feel is the loss of who you are
By force or by fire, by force or by flame
All you will know is the void of emptiness
By force or the flame
[Bridge]
All that you see is a darkness
From the outside looking in(2x)
All you can sense is surface tension
From a distance grasping at straws (2x)
[Chorus]
All you can feel is the loss of who you are
It's not about you, it's not about you
All you will know is the void of emptiness
By force of the flame, this merciless fate

Caves and embers |
[Verse 1]
Despite what is out there burning
Our faces remain intact
We hear the screaming of the voiceless
Yet we are numb to the pain of others
We filter out the light
It never penetrates our blinding screens
We can take a stand
[Chorus]
But in the end it all means nothing
We rage out but we are wasting away
From the roots below
To the boundless stars above
We are nothing at all
[Verse 2]
What separates us from the others
A difference in choices made
We take an insignificant stance
What would we do in a opinion vaccuum
When left unaccountable
So here we are far from the world
Just wasting away
[Chorus]
Doing nothing being nothing
We are the favoured design
And we're wasting away
From the caves and embers
To the heart of the beyond
We are nothing at all
[Bridge]
Here we are doing nothing
Being nothing
We are wasting away
[Outro]
From the roots below
To the boundless stars above
We are nothing at all
Just wasting away

The absolute |
n every hour every day
This chosen solitude is gone
The pressure coursing
Through your every nerve
Will rise and fade away
There's madness to this method
Conformity now on display
When confidence become the enemy
In time our questions lose their meaning
Wish it away and it comes back to you somehow
A loneliness denied
Our shallow pool of wisdom
Reflects upon our innocent face
Between attacks of pure anxiety
You see humanity slip away
You force the lie to be an absolute
To where there will be no return
There is a face on the surface
I don't ever want to see
There is a light above the water
That is not supposed to be
If there is truth in this resistance
I don't ever want to know
|
 |
Time out of place |
It gets ahead of us
Blind ambition meets our desperation
It gets ahead of us
It leads a charge to where we should not go
It makes no sense to me
Our willingness to hold on to belief
It got away from us
The thought of understanding what's around
Have we gone too far this time?
To argue from authority in this case
It just got away
I feel we've lost our place in time
It's getting closer now
The fear that we have held off for so long
It's getting closer now
To where we know there can be no return
It makes no sense to me
What has been set in motion here today
It makes no sense anymore
Was it too little, too late
Or too much too fast?
This time we've gone too far
