Now We Die Lyrics
[Intro]
(And with this now we die)
(And with this now we die)
And with this now we die
(And with this now we die)
And with this now we die
(And with this now we die)
(And with this now we die)
[Verse 1]
Standing at the edge of the world
Uncertainty calling as the page unfurls Fortune, Heaven or Hell
Shedding my body of this mortal shell
Black steel and iron
A Lion Heart is forged from these bones
Fear not, the discontent you hide
Awake from the slumber and define this time
No fear to pay the price
And with this now we die
[Chorus 1]
Ashes to ashes
The ocean crashes
Louder and louder it cries
Over and over
The sands wash over
Facing, embracing the tides
And with this now we die
And with this now we die
(and with this now we die)
[Verse 2]
Screaming violence into the void
Is anyone listening or is all destroyed?
Fighting heaven and earth
Saving your children from this pain and hurt
Bloodstone and diamonds
Nothing can break the strength of these stones
Cast off the shackles of the past
Live in the moment nothing ever lasts
Now cross the bridge of sighs
And with this now we die
[Chorus 2]
Ashes to ashes
The ocean crashes
Louder and louder it cries
Over and over
The sands wash over
Facing, embracing the tides
And with this now we die
Are you ready to die?
Standing at the edge of the world
Standing at the edge of the world
[Verse 3]
The damned are we
Abused and beat
We're left for dead
We raise our head
For we are strong
And they are wrong
Well scream with me
"I do believe!"
I need your help
For I have knelt
Held fist at skies
And cried out, "Why?"
Your shoulder strength
It gives me length
We lift ourselves
Together meld
So take my hand
And don't look back
And sing with me, "Let new life be
Old life goodbye"
And now we die
For we are one
Forever young
And with this now we die
And with this now we die
And with this now we die
And with this now we die
Are you ready?
I'm standing at the edge of the world
Standing at the edge of the world
Ghosts Will Haunt My Bones Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Let me feel my palms around your throat
Let me see the pain of lost control
Let me hear your heart racing inside
Let me see the darkness that you fight
[Chorus]
When the night crashes down
(See) No vision
(Can you believe?) Derision
(Will I fall?) Down so far
(Into the deep) It's so dark
Ghosts will haunt my bones
(So don't leave me alone)
[Verse 2]
Let me taste the salt within your tears
Let me swallow hope; it disappears
Let me steal the mind that makes you whole
Let me peel a layer from your soul
[Chorus] [x2]
They won't leave me alone
[Verse 3]
In darkest night I lay awakened with
These thoughts of endless black that never quit
The tortured thoughts inside my head you see
They hide a mask of pain that's so ugly
[Bridge]
These ghosts come haunt my bones
They won't leave me alone
[Verse 4]
From my throat the agonies emit
My demons wrestle and my thoughts conflict
The stench of bile, as I purge this hate
An inner struggle I can't separate
[Bridge 2]
These ghosts come haunt my bones
They won't leave me alone
Thunder cracks and dark furies sound
When the night crashes down
[Outro]
These ghosts come haunt my bones
They won't leave me alone
Thunder cracks and dark furies sound
When the night crashes
When the night crashes down
When the night crashes down
Game Over Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh your sweet little lies
Oh your sweet little lies
I can hear when I hold you close to me
When I look in your eyes
I see through your disguise
What I see is an only lonely void
And I can see hell in your eyes
[Verse 2]
'Cause you're drowning inside
Those fake tears that you cried
As I claw my way from your tragedy
Emptiness is your bride
Arrogance is your pride
I won't drown in another's misery
And you won't pull me down to die
[Verse 3]
No!
Stuck in this prison with a brother I loved
Stuck in this prison with the memories of...
Another time, when music's all that we had
Bonded by anger and addictions, so glad
Always together but no words are spoken
This is the sound of a friendship broken
Trapped and climbing up the walls
How the fuck do I get out of these pitfalls?
[Chorus]
And you say that life is just a game and
Everyone who plays is just a pawn
And shame on me it went so long
How could I've been so wrong?
I've forever gone, colder
If life is just a game then
Game over
[Verse 4]
Dreaming of choking someone I used to know
Strangling the negativity that they sow
Resent has now become the face in the mask
That plays upon a bitter two-man cast
Go find somebody else to blame your problems
Trying to fuck me, because you can't solve them
Stop! You never gave a shit
We almost fucking quit, because how much you hated it
[Chorus]
[Bridge] [x2]
For as long as you're alive
I'll curse your worthless name
[Verse 5]
On the day
On the day of your demise
Unburied and left for the flies
Believe me that I will piss upon your grave
Forgiveness may greet me on someday
But I'll never forget all this pain
Let there be no mistake
This is not a game!
[Verse 6]
Oh your sweet little lies
Oh your sweet little lies
I can hear when I hold you close to me
When I look in your eyes
I see through your disguise
What I see is an only lonely void
Cause you're drowning inside
Those fake tears that you cried
As I claw my way from your tragedy
Emptiness is your bride
Arrogance is your pride
I won't drown in another's misery
Forever this friendship has died
No!
[Chorus]
[Outro] [x4]
Game over (Game over)
Imaginal Cells Lyrics
[Instrumental]
[Voiceover:]
We’re in a critical phase of human civilization that our survival is really in question
There is generally a feeling that something that there’s something happening
People have been exposed of course to the whole concept of peak oil, to climate change, to population explosion
The doomsday clock keeps moving closer
Religious people are talking about the End Times
Present state of disorganization
What seems to be happening is that people are beginning to realise
How many of these are real crises or how many of these are crises as a result of limitations of our belief system?
Where civilization’s structures become so rigid and it can no longer adapt to the changing situations
There’s a great increase in mental illness
There are signs of when these civilizations come to an end
There’s a sense of alienation within the population
A very large increase in violent crime, social disruption
Some of the beliefs that we have bought into affect the entire population so
And surprisingly an interest in religious cultism
As societies start to begin to disintegrate
These weapons of mass distraction which are now falling apart as we’re seeing life being exposed time and time again, every day, every week
What they’ve been distracting us from is our true power, the true nature of human nature
Our power to evolve, our power to become cells in the organism called humanity
And it’s an exciting story of our own power to evolve our own true nature and our own evolutionary destiny
Medicine started out as a healing art to help others but over time and in our materialistic world and a world based on corporations, industries that thrive by making money off of sick people
But the environment’s changing
We are at this very moment in a stage where corporations are teeter-tottering because they can’t maintain themselves anymore
They’ve grown too big and they have too little awareness to maintain this world
And while they’re doing their destruction of the planet, a new series
People are coming out of the old just like we talked about
The imaginal cells
But imaginal cells have a different vision of the world
And why this is important for us is because it is a world of relationship
Nobody can get off the bus, we’re all in this together
We see that we are indeed really approaching a change of civilization
It really is a lesson for us
We’re in the throes of a new evolution, a new civilization is manifesting
Creative minorities arise
The imaginal cells are people that are saying “there’s another way to do this”
There’s a better brighter image that’s much more successful than the one we’re doing
They’re precursors of the next level of our evolution
The fractal image will repeat itself, it’s not a coincidence
We know where we’ve been, we know we’re going
And all I have to say is just stay out of the way of the dinosaurs as they crash
And allow us to take over this planet and bring in the new ideas that the imaginal cells will offer
To support and encourage our survival as a civilization on this planet
