Shaping Infinity

Bring forth change
and meet the end
Face your fears
embrace demise
realise that nothing
is simply derived
from numbers we’ve made up
these feelings that take up
ideas that could redeem us all
At the end of all your life
there will be those who carry on
who maintain your legacy
as you shape infinity
All the lives that pass you by
you wait for the day
in which you reach your end
For all the words you say
and steps in which you take
we’re wasting away
At the end of all our lives
there will be those who carry on
who’ll maintain the legacy
as we shape infinity
As we forge forever
We leave a trace upon this Earth
and welcome the end
of the existence we have known
In time, we will understand
that we cannot comprehend
a meaning to life
that we can all visualise
At the end of all our lives
there will be those who carry on
who’ll maintain the legacy
as we shape infinity
Through our thoughts and through our words
through the changes we have caused
there are secrets to living forever
within the lives we bring together
and even as the end will call your name
your legacy will still remain
Our time will come
when we will meet our end
when our lives will fade away
but this world will not forget
the change that we’ve made
in the lives we have lead
Even once we’re dead
even once we fade away
our bodies rot, our minds decay
the meaning in the words we say
will still forge forever

Wake me up from this dream
If we all share the same fate
will that change the decisions that we make
holding out for a better tomorrow
give me hope to face a new day
Wait
is this all that we’re here for
conflicting words and no inner
peace, release and start the new age
So, what are you waiting for
a reason to meet the end
or a reason to start again
so wake me up from this dream
and tell me what do you see
in your own reality
How long can you take it
with these thoughts inside your head
who will you be, who will you see
if you’re already dead
how long can you fake it
before your gone
nothing to feel, nothing to see
now sings your perish song
Before your gone
you must make your mark
(you can create your fate)
Life itself is only a vision, a dream
nothing exists save empty space and you
and you, are but a thought
There must be more than this despair
there is a reason why we’re here
we all wish to seek the truth
when it’s the truth that seeks us
We all seek the truth
Glimmers of reality are all that we see
to change our mentality of morality
embrace your own sanity
and move past all of these fallacies
we’ll exist eternally
and find our own destiny

The Eternal
04:20

Once we’re gone
what’s left for us
will death be the end of it all
Scratch out my eyes
and submerge my mind
Cast aside this eternal nothingness
Darkness all around
there is not a sound
no way to deal with this ultimatum
a death stare, grips the air
life was but a dream
and it would seem
that I have no point
no reason more than a solemn reminder
that we all wait for the day
of our own, our own demise
The void is all I know
Calling into the ether
emptiness forever
All that I have learned
is locked within my mind
what will be
in the absence of time
So take it away, take it away from me
the end is all I see
so take it away, take it away from me
extinguished eternally
Cast aside this eternal nothingness
I beg for serenity
There is no way to start again
no thought that can amend
no peace a god can send
no way to make it end
Lost in the void
falling forever
Why are we here
is it a reflex to fear
this nothingness
that I have called my home
when I’ve left my mind, left my soul
I’ll never be whole, never be free
or can I simply not quite see
the futures beyond me
as I slowly accept my fate
I am the void
the eternal void

A Path Beyond
07:18

As this world comes to an end
As this world comes to an end
and what we hold dear has gone
resources drained and we’re in this alone
And I fear that we won’t get back
the world we had before
If we could see the wrong
in the wasteful way we live,
then maybe minds would change
maybe we’d press on
If we could hear the cries
of the ground beneath our feet,
then maybe minds would change
maybe we’d move on
We must take a step beyond
the path that we’ve worn out
this path we call our home
this Earth we call our own
We’ll take a step
beyond into the void of the unknown
we’ll link with Earth itself
and the lands that we all roam
We only have once chance to live
we must thrive
we only have this life to give
so give what you’ve got
We were never designed to live this way
trapped in an endless cycle of decay
the things we’ve done, the things we say
adapt and we can live another day
I can hear it call my name
a yearning for change
but as we’re led astray
that voice begins to fade
We must take a step beyond
the path that we’ve worn out
this path we call our home
this Earth we call our own
We’ll take a step
beyond into the void of the unknown
we’ll link with Earth itself
and these lands that we all roam
We are the new age
we’ll make the change
and bring reform
The competition, a consuming system
machine creations that won’t ever glisten
poisoning this Earth, expanding their turf
until we’ll have nothing left
We’re running out of time
we’re out of line, we’ve seen the signs
escape the grind and use our minds
to be more kind and then we’ll find
a bind between us all
we’ll unify a rise before the fall
and speak for us all
Work as one and we will see
together we can find the path we’re meant to lead
take my hand and come with me
and we can find our own destiny
As this world comes to an end

Soul Storm
08:27
|

We are born into this
soul we struggle with
mind we battle with
thoughts that we exist
Told how to live
and dying to act
We learn from the words we have read
act on the thoughts that are said
we’re all lost
yet all we do is pretend
again and again
when will we break this trend
Been searching for so long
just for reasons to hold on
and reason to trust our own minds
Your mind may be playing tricks upon your own subconscious
images of what it wants you to see
so imagine your own world and fabricate your own existence
and begin to forge your own reality
Calling for answers to questions we don’t have yet
this paradox is all we’ve got
as we wonder this world alone
tricked to believe who we’re not
and forced to live a lie
And we will carve a path
one we can hold on to
Walk down the roads you want to lead
forging tracks that you will need
in hope to find yourself
and awaken your soul
meet others on divergent paths
find those few who’ll always last
on this track you’ve laid yourself
now enlighten us all
How can we be so blind to the endless crimes
another slow decline and a fault in our kind
cutting the ties of what we despise
and what we’re truly fighting for
what you adore
is it worth the chance that your soul might not go on
We are the ones who live our lives in vein
without a chance to ease the pain
spiralling into confusion
will we even remember our names
There is no reason to pretend
Caught in a weave of consciousness
yet failing to see the thoughtlessness
we’re all slaves
but we will make our escape
Find your own meaning
So light the way
for all to see
in a hope to find yourself
The way that you exist
the lies that you resist
create an effect
that can be reckoned with
For ages we will wait
condemned to mortal fate
the setbacks of our own kind
resist or fade away
these are the choices that we make
and the reasons to live another day
Affecting us all
our souls unite and bring forth the storm
There is no reason to pretend
