Lyrics
EP "Silenced" - Averted (2020)
The Plea
Can you explain to me why
You close your eyes
When you see the light
Silencing your thoughts
Stepping back in line
Giving up at the start
I lead a path that they have made for me
It’s where I’m safe why should I stray away
I am not blind I choose not to see
Turning my back is how I survive here
They told me it’s best
“It’s how you live free”
The burden of the world is not mine to carry
Spitting lies won’t change the facts
See beyond and start to fight
I am aching to see for myself
But I am struggling to breathe
You’ve seen the signs
If you deny, you’re full of lies
They’ve shown themselves
So many times
More than you can hide
I lead a path that they have made for me
It’s where I’m safe why should I stray away
I am not blind I choose not to see
Turning my back is how I survive here
They told me it’s best
“It’s how you live free”
The burden of the world is not mine to carry
All these thoughts are killing me
I’m not ready to let go
I heard your call before
Your voice is hard to ignore
You’ve seen the signs
If you deny, you’re full of lies
They’ve shown themselves
So many times
More than you can hide
You’re giving up at the start
Silenced
It’s time to rise
I’ve been lied to for too long
The unspoken truth is about to be told
Concealed and silenced
Too far for your eyes to see
You’ll struggle to believe their stories
They’ve walked on fire
Crawled through hell
They cannot die in vain
Above this illusion
There is a world
That you won’t see
A barless prison
A line you cannot reach
It’s time to rise
I’ve been lied to for too long
The unspoken truth is about to be told
Born to be used
Their voices were taken away from them
Tortured and abused
To profit an elite of soulless apes
From the dawn of time
To the world as we know it
They did not matter at all
They’ve walked on fire
Crawled through hell
They cannot die in vain
Above this illusion
There is a world
That you won’t see
Within the chaos that you live in
You fight to breathe in hope that we won’t forget
Praying that we’re not too busy to care
At all
Praying that we’re not too busy to care
They’ve walked on fire
Crawled through hell
They cannot die in vain
They’ve walked on fire
Crawled through hell
They cannot die in vain
It’s time to rise
I’ve been lied to for too long
Vaecordia
You have the power to make or kill
They will only follow your will
You decide for a million souls
We’ve come so far but yet we fall
Did all this even matter?
We know so much
We’ve seen it all
This cycle will last forever
A voice that speaks for all
You’ll outlaw what you fear
Powered by centuries of death and devotion
The foundation of a well-oiled disaster
For the ones that dare to think
You have the means to bring them down
We’ve come so far but yet we fall
Did all this even matter?
We know so much
We’ve seen it all
This cycle will last forever
The hope that things will change were crushed too many times
So long my inner strength
Madness is on the line
They have the means to bring us down
We’ve come so far but yet we fall
Did all this even matter?
We know so much
We’ve seen it all
This cycle will last forever
The curse
Resonating from afar
It crawled into my mind
I swear to the night
That I won’t let anything disturb my paradise
The source of all evil
Was born from our weakness
We’ve given away our faith
For a promise of a fearless end
We’ve come together to tear them apart
Our frustration reigns over our steps
Leading us to a blood-filled regress
We’ve done it all to ourselves
It is too late to turn around
I have gone too far
But please don’t condemn me
For choosing a path where I survive
I wish I could avoid this
I have become what I despise
The source of all evil
Was born from our weakness
We’ve given away our faith
For a promise of a fearless end
We’ve come together to tear them apart
Our frustration reigns over our steps
Leading us to a blood-filled regress
A blood-filled regress
Nothing will ever
Take away our pain
The source of all evil
Was born from our weakness
We’ve given away our faith
For a promise of a fearless end
We’ve come together to tear them apart
Our frustration reigns over our steps
Leading us to a blood-filled regress
We’ve done it all to ourselves again
We have gone too far
No more quiet nights, no more quiet nights
We’ve done it all to ourselves
Sacrifice
I have gone from hate to sorrow
Tell me what have I become?
I have failed to stand by the words I have spoken before
The feeling of loss
Is slowly consuming me
I have tried to forget but they are gone
They can no longer forgive me
They cannot forgive me
Ahead of every thought
Every step of my way
I see them
In the dawn of my darkest days
They never went away
The feeling of loss
Is slowly consuming me
I have tried to forget but they are gone
They can no longer forgive me
They cannot forgive me
Absolution
I’ve had enough of hearing excuses
These hollow whispers fading away
They said that I would be forgiven
An empty promise of absolution
Breathless under the silence
Rejecting my own existence
I won’t live another day
There is no higher power
Not a soul looking over
Failure is our fate
Led to the darkest place
I lost my way
Fear took away my will to question their intentions
Chorus
I see clear
Only I can save myself
Breathless under the silence
rejecting my own existence
I won’t live another day
There is no higher power
not a soul looking over
failure is our fate
Chorus
I see clear
Only I can save myself
Chorus
