Retribution for every day laid waste

Absolution, time takes its toll on me

I'm through reaching out to hands that will surely let me fall

I will die chasing my stars into oblivion

*Guitar Lead*

I'm awake but in a catatonic state

Recollecting the pieces to the story that will tell a tale of blood, lust and greed

A constant struggle over tyranny

Paradise laid to waste

We have lost our way

And the problems you notice it like one with the flock

You're flying into the sun, never to question the if, how, or why?

You will perish all the same like the others have proved me

Living a life waiting to die wasting precious time

If you wanted to make a difference you wouldn't hesitate without a fucking question

If you really cared, you would take a chance

You'll never know unless you fucking try

*Guitar Lead*

So the story goes to show, they can control your mind and they will brand your soul and force feed beliefs that are not your own

Sex, Race and Class are the epitome of ignorance

Empires don’t last

It is plain to see, that we are aware like the coward you are fleeing at the first sight of blood never to face the ones that you have denied

You will pay for the damage done

It will haunt your memories

Look in my eyes

Feel the pain writhe until the end of time

You will look me in my eyes

Face me, fabricate another lie (Ha-ha)

Hang them in the halls for all the rest to bare fucking witness

I will not let you destroy for which what men have died for

Ages of blood, sweat, and tears and realistic people with realistic minds

I am through reaching out to hands that will surely let me fall

I will die chasing my stars into the endless oblivion

Into Oblivion
