Numbered Days Lyrics
[Intro]
The time approaches
(Fall)
[Verse 1]
This is the voice of the voiceless
We have learned by making choices
After persecution and delusion
We have severed a solution
To build our foundation on natural elements to preserve life
We will rise, this Babylon
[Hook]
Fall
[Verse 2]
Chanting inspiration for the righteous
Dislocation from the social order
Kingdoms will rise, to power
But kingdoms fall to dust
Fall, fall, fall
[Verse 2]
Chanting inspiration for the righteous
Dislocation from the social order
Kingdoms will rise to power
But kingdoms fall to dust
Fall, fall, fall
[Verse 3]
The ashes of the dead will be a sign
The time approaches
No one will hear their cries from Babylon
The time approaches
[Chorus]
Arms raised (Raised)
Eyes gaze (Gaze)
Tongues of fire whisper
This life (life) will soon (soon) slip away
Fall
[Bridge]
Babylon
Your days are numbered
The time
The time approaches
[Chorus]
Arms raised (Raised)
Eyes gaze (Gaze)
Tongues of fire whisper
This life (life) will soon (soon) slip away
Fall
[Outro]
Babylon, you will fall
Your days are numbered
The time approaches
No one hear you cry as you fall
Fall, fall, fall
My Last Serenade Lyrics
[Intro]
This is my last serenade
This is my last
[Verse 1]
This revelation is the death of ignorance
Tangled in a state of suffocation
Slave to self righteousness
Damnation is on your lips
[Pre-Chorus]
From sorrow to serenity
The truth is absolution
From sorrow to serenity
It's on your head
[Chorus]
This is my last serenade
I feel you as you fall away
This is my last serenade
From yourself you can't run away
[Verse 2]
It's your choice, point the finger
But it's on your head
Your destination is a choice within yourself
Will you rise or become a slave
To self righteousness
Open up your heart and gaze within
[Pre-Chorus]
From sorrow to serenity
The truth is absolution
From sorrow to serenity
It's on your head
[Chorus]
This is my last serenade
I feel you as you fall away
This is my last serenade
From yourself you can't run away
[Outro]
This is my last serenade
This is my last serenade
This is my last serenade
Just Barely Breathing Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Descend into hysteria, chaos of mankind
But who is listening to the voice of hatred?
Tortured souls lost, so completely lost
Weakened in the concept of decline, deception
[Verse 1]
Descend into hysteria, chaos of mankind
But who is listening to the voice of hatred?
Tortured souls lost, so completely lost
Weakened in the concept of decline, deception
[Chorus]
Are we alive, or just breathing?
Don't close your eyes, see the images
Are we alive, or just breathing?
Don't close your eyes, see the images
[Verse 2]
The skies weep tonight
Our bodies washed away
I am waiting for you
Deliverance
The sun falls through the clouds
Hear my cry
[Chorus]
Are we alive, or just breathing?
Don't close your eyes, see the images
Are we alive, or just breathing?
Don't close your eyes, see the images
[Verse 2]
The skies weep tonight
Our bodies washed away
I am waiting for you
Deliverance
The sun falls through the clouds
Hear my cry
[Outro]
I am waiting for you, (I am waiting for you)
(For you)
I am waiting for you, (I am waiting for you)
(For you)
I am waiting for you, (I am waiting for you)
(For you)
I am waiting for you, (I am waiting for you)
(For you)
I am waiting for you, I am waiting for you, I am waiting for you
Temple From the Within Lyrics
[Chorus]
Make me feel serenity
When all is revealed
So easy to look back in life
And question but I must
Seek the strength to push forward, forward, forward
[Verse 1]
I want to see a world so
Beautiful inside
As we drink of life
Absolve me through your suffering
[Chorus]
Make me feel serenity
When all is revealed
So easy to look back in life
And question but I must
Seek the strength to push forward, forward, forward
[Verse 2]
Teach me to inscribe these words
Upon my heart
You cover me with the shadow
Of your hand
[Hook]
Suffer tears me down
[Refrain 1]
I will not lose myself
In everything that tears me down
Because you stand by me
There’s no one to blame
No one to blame for my transgressions
[Verse 2]
Teach me to inscribe these words
Upon my heart
You cover me with the shadow
Of your hand
[Refrain 2]
I will not lose myself
In everything that tears me down
Because you stand by me
[Verse 1]
I want to see a world so
Beautiful inside
As we drink of life
Absolve me through your suffering
[Refrain 3]
I will not lose myself
In everything that tears me down
Because you stand by me
There’s no one to blame
No one to blame
Rise Inside Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Rise inside
Free your mind
Raise your fist
To signify
We stand in defiance
Of hatred and deception
If I stand alone
I'll fight for you
[Chorus 1]
The time has come to
Make a difference
Why have we forsaken love
The time has come to
Raise our voices
So rise up and fight with me
[Verse 2]
Embrace what we have
It might be the last time
In this life we will rise (In this life we will rise)
If we find the strength to unify
[Verse 1]
Rise inside
Free your mind
Raise your fist
To signify
We stand in defiance
Of hatred and deception
If I stand alone
I'll fight for you
[Chorus 1]
The time has come to
Make a difference
Why have we forsaken love
The time has come to
Raise our voices
So rise up and fight with me
[Verse 2]
Embrace what we have
It might be the last time
In this life we will rise (In this life we will rise)
If we find the strength to unify
[Bridge]
Hatred is a weakness
You become the victim
I believe love will overcome
[Chorus 2]
The time has come to
Make a difference
Why have we forsaken one another
The time has come to
Raise our voices
So rise up and fight with me
The time has come to
Raise our voices
So rise up and fight with me
[Outro]
The time has come (The time has come)
The time has come (The time has come)
The time has come to rise inside, rise inside
